A new day has finally arrived.
Early this morning, those who were well-informed already knew that, apart from Elhoin, the two most powerful people in the city had been eliminated.
The bars and nightclubs that usually open at night opened early this morning. As a result, those customers who also come at night gathered in the bars and nightclubs early this morning, discussing in low voices what happened last night.
"I heard that the people from Elhoin had left overnight, and even the mine was cleared out. Today the mine announced a temporary suspension of operations. I remember the last suspension was when an epidemic broke out ten years ago."
"Du Gao and Griffin are also dead. Du Gao's house was burned down, and his men and guards are all dead. Their bodies are now neatly laid out on the street, with blood all over the ground. No one dares to approach them, and no one goes to collect the bodies."
"Du Gao is the best. Griffin is the worst. The street is completely buried and turned into ruins. I don't know how many people are buried alive. There is no one to clean up the mess. They have set up a cordon and don't allow people to get close."
"Who do you think the man who came to take over our place is? He drove Elhoin away as soon as he arrived, and also cleaned out Du Gao and Griffin at night."
"Yesterday evening, 'Mad Man' Matthew was still patting his chest and saying that he would teach the new adults a lesson today. Now he doesn't even dare to fart. He was nowhere to be seen this morning."
"Forget it. Even big shots like Du Gao and Griffin have been purged. If Matthew dares to jump out now, won't he be easily dealt with?"
"I think that adult will announce something important today. Just wait and see."
Similar discussions were circulating in bars and nightclubs, and people believed that the successor would announce something today, but until noon, the city was quiet.
It was not until the afternoon that people found out that the new adult had left the city in the morning with a group of people, and no one knew what he was doing.
at this time.
The adult that the people in the settlement were talking about was walking on a rough road.
Tianyang held the Blood Drinker, and behind him were the three Reddings and the parliament's guards. This time, the guards had doubled to 30 people, and their equipment had been upgraded to a higher level.
This guard is currently under the command of Reading.
This place is a wilderness fifty kilometers away from the settlement. There is a thick layer of loose soil on the hard road surface, and dust will be raised when a strong wind blows.
Occasionally, you can see a few empty bullet shells scattered randomly in the grass on the side of the road. These shells are filled with soil and seem to have been here for a long time.
It is obvious that a battle had taken place here, and more than one battle, but the traces of the battle have long been buried by wind and sand.
A gust of wind blew, and Tianyang heard a clanging sound. An empty can rolled past nearby, with a label of "Potatoes and Beef" on it.
It was pushed by the wind on the bumpy road, rolling continuously, occasionally bouncing, and finally hitting a wall next to it, which used to be the load-bearing wall of the house. Now the house has collapsed, but the tree still stands, only pitted by the erosion of wind and sand.
There are many walls like this nearby. According to Lu An's information, there used to be a small town here. But like many towns in the wilderness, they have become history under the ravages of the gods and evil spirits.
However, the ruins of this town now serve as the headquarters of a group of armed bandits.
Looking up, Tianyang looked at the
Looking at the stone and brick houses with doors and windows reinforced with thick wooden boards, he could feel that there were eyes watching him and his uninvited guests from behind the doors and windows of those houses.
Tian Yang had no intention of negotiating. He looked at Redding and said, "I'll give you an hour. We still have other places to visit. Don't waste too much time here."
Redding, who was armed with his terrifying miniature gun today, patted his chest and said, "Boss, an hour is more than enough."
He turned around, looked at his guards, and shouted, "Is that right?"
"Yes!" the soldiers roared in unison, their morale soaring.
Redding chuckled dryly and released one ability after another to himself and the soldiers. Then he strode towards the town with a metal box full of bullets on his back.
As he walked, he shouted, "Listen carefully, rats in this town. I, Master Redding, will kill you today. Be afraid! Cry! Run away!"
The next second, the machine gun roared, spewing out long tongues of fire. The powerful bullets were like a whip of fire, lashing through a house fiercely, collapsing the house and killing several bandits hiding inside on the spot.
Next, the parliament’s guards dispersed, with three people forming a combat unit, relying on and covering each other as they went deep into the town.
Suddenly, bursts of dull gunfire, exclamations, and screams were heard in the town.
Tianyang found a broken wall to sit down, leaning on the Blood Drinker, and watching Redding's performance with a smile.
Alice and Qiu Mo stood behind him, the former covering her ears with her hands, and the latter watching the battle in the town with eagerness.
Tian Yang didn't look back, but seemed to know what Qiu Mo was thinking. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, today is a good time for you to stretch your muscles."
Last night he and Lu An got two sets of information, one was about the bullies in the city, and the other was about the bandit groups near the settlements and mines.
Tianyang asked Xuecheng to clean up the two bullies in the city, and he took his men out of the city during the day to clean up the bandit groups. Yinmeng and Yexiao, two silver knights, were also brought out by Tianyang as "coolies". They were responsible for cleaning up some small bandit groups with Level 5 Ascendants.
As for those that Tianyang dealt with himself, they were all large-scale thief groups with a large number of people, but the ranks of the sublimators were not very high, so they were just right for Redding and others to practice.
Bang, bang, bang—
Dull gunshots and explosions continued to ring out in the town. Although this gang of thieves hiding in the ruins of the town had a large number of people, they were no match for the Parliament Guards.
What's more, there was the conqueror Redding in charge of the command. The bandits fought desperately. They ambushed, attacked, raided, and set traps, but they were all wiped out one by one by Redding and the parliament's soldiers.
In this battle, Redding took 45 minutes to wipe out the bandits. Only a few alert ones escaped early in the chaos. But the leader of the bandits and a number of important figures were killed in the town, without exception.
Next, it’s time to clean up the battlefield and rest.
An hour later, Tianyang led his team away and moved to the base of another gang of bandits.
On this day, Tianyang led the team to fight in a hundred miles, and together with Yinmeng and Ye Xiao, they cleared out all the bandit groups within a hundred kilometers around the settlement and mine.
the next day.
Today, bars and nightclubs still open early in the morning, customers fill these places, and drinks sell out very quickly.
Around ten o'clock, no
I know who it is, running into the bar and yelling, "Quick, that adult is back, and, moreover, there are many heads hanging on their car!"
The news immediately caused an uproar in the bar, and drinkers rushed out of the bar. They even forgot to pay the bill, causing the boss who was chasing after them to curse them.
On the main street of the settlement, several chariots of the Thunder Council drove slowly by. Heads were hung around the chariots with their eyes closed, hanging on the chariots like lanterns.
People exclaimed when they saw the heads.
"Is that the 'Sand Wolf' Rogu?"
"Oh my god, isn't that the leader of the 'Rock Snake'?"
"Am I dazzled? I actually saw the 'Vulture' Majos?"
... ... ..
It was no wonder that people were shouting and screaming, because the chariot that just passed by was carrying the flags of all the famous bandit leaders nearby.
Some of these bandit gangs were protected by Elhos, while others were simply vicious dogs kept by the Elhos family.
They were the eyes and ears of Elhos, and their leaders' heads were now hanging on the chariots, and people understood it as a signal.
The new takeover will pull out and clean up all the roots of Elhos here!
Therefore, when the broadcast in the settlement sounded at noon, asking people to gather in the city square, people did not hesitate, and those who could walk away came to the square.
It had never been so lively here before. The square was almost packed with people, and even the surrounding buildings were crowded with people.
A platform was built in the square at some point. After the broadcast in the square asked people to be quiet, a figure appeared on the platform.
People saw that it was a young man holding a rusty red knife in his hand. He looked around and then said, "My name is Tianyang, and I am the agent of this settlement."
There was a cheer in the square. People did not expect that the person who forced Victor away, cleaned up Duke and Griffin, and wiped out the surrounding bandit gangs would be so young.
Tian Yang said calmly: "A lot of things happened in the past few days. I believe everyone has heard about it, so I won't go into details here."
"To put it simply, the settlement and the mine are now managed by me, and I allow gray trade to exist here."
"However, gray must never turn into black, and slavery and drugs are absolutely prohibited. I have already made this clear through my actions."
"In addition, the bandit groups within a hundred kilometers around the settlement and the mine have basically been cleared out. For the time being, it should be unlikely that new bandit groups will appear."
“So, you don’t have to worry about safety.”
"I know you've all gotten used to Elhoin's ways. But now, Elhoin has left, and there will be no chance for him to come back."
"Therefore, I suggest that you adapt to the rules I set as soon as possible. The new rules are very simple. Whether it is the settlement or the mine, you will abide by the regulations set by Fort Ares. As long as you do not violate the regulations, you can continue to live and work here."
“As for the details, they will be sorted out and announced by the fortress staff later.”
"I know that many of you are Elhoin's spies. I don't mind you passing on the news here to Elhoin."
"I welcome Elhoin's challenge to take back their land. After all, it's very rude to refuse someone who sends you money, isn't it?"
