"Lebedana is running out of money."
These words made Jeremy's expression immediately fierce, and he was quite annoyed by the feeling that his hole cards and weaknesses were seen through.
What annoyed him even more was that this was still a human being.
"There's no place for you to speak here, lowly human being." Jeremy yelled heavily. He got up and was about to slap Beta, but he stopped suddenly.
There was no surprise in the eyes of the human in front of him, only a sarcastic smile and a stern light.
After fighting for a long time, he immediately returned to the chair, and looked at Beta with cloudy eyes.
He had a sense of danger just now.
Angela also found out what Jeremy wanted to do at this time, she slapped the handle of her seat, stood up abruptly, and said coldly: "Jeremy, who do you want to kill? Hmm !"
Although Jeremy is indeed stronger than Angela, Angela is really not afraid of him.
This is Erbu City, her city. There are two hundred succubus guarding outside the palace, and Li Lin is also beside her, so what is she afraid of.
"I didn't intend to kill anyone, but I just felt very angry when I thought that I was running out of money." When he spoke, his eyes were still fixed on Beta.
Beta could feel the sharpness in the opponent's eyes, but he still didn't care.
"Are you a guest, or it's better to keep your personality in check." Angela snorted and sat down again: "So, what exactly do you want to do?"
Jeremy was a little aggrieved. He came here mainly to find a way to catch fish. If it didn't work, he also wanted to get some food out of Angela's hands.
Just like what Beta said, the city of Leibedana is almost out of money, but the war with Foshia is still in a state of confrontation.
He not only wanted food, but also hoped that Angela would send troops to help.
As long as Foshiya City can be destroyed, he is not in charge of the surrounding area.
At that time, Angela's Erbu City will also be in his hands.
It's just that he didn't expect that Angela in Erbu City was not only very tough, but even her human sheriff seemed to have a lot of background.
Things are a little troublesome.
"We need food," Jeremy said. "Your sheriff is very smart. We really don't have any money, but we can pay in other ways. It's up to you, as long as we can afford it."
The aggrieved feeling was getting stronger and stronger, but Jeremy had to bow his head.
It was said that Angela a few months ago was afraid to mess with Lime City and had to pay taxes, but now she dared to scold Jeremy against him.
This is not right.
Since when did this happen
That human came here
"We just want money." Angela said lightly, "Besides, the city of Leibedana didn't produce anything."
Jeremy frowned.
If it was the former Erbu City, he could have won it with a little effort, but the current Erbu City has become a hard nut to crack. It is impossible for him to go to war with two cities at the same time.
Otherwise, he will definitely be destroyed.
But without food, his city wouldn't last long.
At this moment, Beta spoke suddenly: "I wonder if Santo Jeremy has heard of mercenaries?"
"Of course I've heard of it. It's something made by humans."
"You send some soldiers to us to serve for half a year. For every one hundred soldiers in Leibedana City, you can exchange thirty tons of grain, or five tons of dried meat. What do you think?"
Angela looked at Beta in surprise, she had a weird expression on her face, but she didn't stop Beta's suggestion.
Jeremy looked at Angela and found that she didn't intend to stop the man from talking nonsense, so he had some other guesses in his mind.
"What do you want soldiers for?" Jeremy asked warily.
"Of course it's to protect myself." Beta laughed.
After thinking for a while, Jeremy asked, "Any kind of soldier will do?"
"Anyone who has fought a war will do."
Jeremy thought for a while, and there were a group of wounded and disabled soldiers on his side who were worrying about having no place to settle, so he happily said: "Okay, there is no problem with this, but I just want to ask one thing clearly. After half a year, these soldiers Will it be returned to us?"
"I let them decide whether to stay or not!"
"Then there's no problem!" Jeremy thought for a while and said, "I'll exchange 60 tons of grain and 5 tons of dried fish first. I wonder if you would like it?"
Angela looked at Beta with a questioning look on her face.
Beta nodded to her and said at the same time: "Contract."
Angela sighed, she didn't understand what Beta wanted to do, but she still signed a contract with Jeremy.
Four hours later, Jeremy led a group of people and left with dozens of tons of food.
Angela stood on the city wall and asked: "Why do you want their soldiers suddenly, are you not afraid that they will riot after entering?"
"Jeremy will definitely send the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and starve them. There is no possibility of riots at first." Beta laughed.
Angela frowned: "You know this, but you want more?"
"The old, weak, sick and disabled are not really old, weak, sick and disabled, but wounded soldiers who lack medical means." Beta explained: "As long as they are treated properly, they can become good soldiers."
"But we have to let them go after half a year." Angela was a little puzzled: "Wouldn't that help them heal those soldiers? It's a loss."
Beta shook his head: "It is written in the contract that we will let them go, and we will not force them to stay. But whether they are willing to leave is another matter."
Angela was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "I see, you are so smart. You want those soldiers to feel the goodness of our city, so they stayed, right?"
Beta nodded: "Most of those who can become soldiers are lawful and evil, and they can join us in Erbu City. As for how many people they can keep after half a year, it depends on how well we treat them."
Angela narrowed her charming eyes: "I understand."
Two days later, a demon army of 300 people was sent to the city of Erbu.
Sure enough, as Beta expected, they were all old, weak, sick and disabled.
But Beta showed a happy smile instead.
He felt a breath of battlefield in these soldiers.
They actually sent over veterans who had gone through the war.
This Jeremy is just like that. Beta clicked her tongue in disdain.
It's not really Jeremy's fault.
In the devil world, food represents magic and power.
Don't talk about strength when you are hungry, you can't even use magic.
The city of Lebedana is short of food, and everyone is half-starved, who has extra energy to take care of others.
After a negative energy healing spell goes on, I will be even hungrier.
Without strength, the next battle will most likely be impossible to survive.
But Erbu City is different. Although the succubus girls don't go to the streets to squeeze juice, they can eat enough every day, and they can also eat some dried fish, so they won't be hungry at all.
As a rare race in the devil world, the succubus knew how to heal negative energy, so it came in handy at this time.
The three hundred wounded soldiers came to Erbu City, not only had enough to eat, but also had beautiful and gentle succubus ladies to treat them.
At this time, in their eyes, the succubus is no less than an angel in the eyes of humans.
Then, you can get a room to live in!
Compared with Leibedana, this kind of treatment is simply a difference between heaven and earth.
Of the 300 Mozu soldiers who came to Erbu City less than ten days ago, more than half of them 'surrendered', and the rest were also shaken violently.
"Why don't we just choose some of our citizens to train as soldiers?" Angela asked, "Although these three hundred wounded soldiers do look like an army after they are healed, they are more trustworthy among our own people." Some."
Beta explained: "Of course I need my own soldiers. But these three hundred soldiers are used as seeds. Whether it is the succubus or the soldiers who have been trained, they have never really been on the battlefield and are all novices. If you have experience War veterans are mixed among them, and they can really stabilize morale when they are on the battlefield."
"Have you thought this far?" Angela felt a little lost, and after staying with Beta for a long time, she felt more and more useless.
But then she cheered up again, what does it matter if she is a waste, as long as Li Lin is good.
"It's not thinking too far, it's just experience." Beta said, "I'm not as evil as you imagined, but I just experienced more things than you."
"Nonsense, how many years have you lived, and how many years have I lived?" Angela was not fooled by such consolation at all, but went back: "I have seen many demons who have lived for four or five hundred years. There must be a lot of things, but I have never seen a single person like you who is very powerful in combat and internal affairs."
"Too much humility is tenderness."
Angela snorted and flew away.
Beta shook his head and continued to deal with the security incident.
After a while, Penelope 'wandered' in, and she put the map in front of Beta.
"This is probably the terrain within 300 kilometers upstream and downstream of the river."
While looking at the topographic map, Beta asked, "Penelope, why have you been unwilling to terminate the slave contract?"
"After the contract is terminated, where can I find such a good job, I can eat enough every day, and I don't have to worry about being beaten by the master. I don't have to worry about being eaten as jerky by the master."
"You really don't have feelings for Foscia City anymore?"
Penelope sneered, and the tail of the snake lightly patted the floor: "What is there to miss in a city that makes me hungry every day and makes me work hard?"
"Are you familiar with Foshiya City?"
"good!"
Beta raised her head and said, "Then get ready, I plan to go to Foscia City, and you will be the guide."
"Row."
Beta continued: "Help me talk to the queen, lest she will worry if I leave suddenly."
"OK."
Not long after that, Angela and Penelope came in together.
"Can you calm down?" Angela accuses as soon as she comes in: "The city of Foshia is now hostile to us. If they were not held back by the city of Leibedana, they would definitely come to trouble us , it's too late for us to hide, and you actually sent it to the door by yourself?"
Beta smiled and said, "Foshya City is much weaker now, it's fine."
Angela looked suspicious: "Weak?"
