"It's not only the cold, but more importantly, the harsh living environment!" Compared to his old friend's complaints, Old John sighed slightly, "Even with the help of Grand Duke Xue Ye, death is still inevitable! "
"Hey, the image of compassion is not suitable for you! We have tried our best, and besides, those deaths...huh!" The profiteer snorted coldly with disdain. With a trace of indifference, "Because, I would rather have more deaths from selfishness and greed—this will allow us to see more clearly... who is the one worth saving!"
The selfishness of human nature is always so conspicuous in the face of life and death.
When the first batch of supplies appeared, some people who had been hiding in the ranks of the rebels broke out—because of Old John's decision to hand over the cotton coats to old, weak, women and children.
Afterwards, the bloodshed began.
Unlike other people who are bound by the so-called 'kindness' and become hesitant, Old John's long sword has always been sharp, especially when he decides to do something and is stopped, the long sword will It seems to be able to cut the world, so that those who stand in front understand what is unstoppable.
The same goes for the rioters in the rebels.
In front of Old John's long sword, the so-called "majority of people" or "the minority obeying the majority" does not exist at all—maybe these rioters simply believe that they have a large number of people, and once something happens, the law will not be held accountable However, Old John told them with certainty. What he relies on is not the rules (laws), but the long sword in his hand.
In front of layers of dead bodies. These rebel rioters were wiped out in an instant.
But... once some seeds are planted, sooner or later they will take root and germinate.
The profiteer could clearly feel the malice that appeared in the rebel army, the kind of malice that made the hairs stand on his back - he didn't think that there were only a few people with such malice, even including those old men they helped. Weak women and children; for, dead rebels among the rebels. With their father, son, husband.
Therefore, the appearance of malice has long been inevitable.
However, profiteers don't care.
Big deal, just do a more thorough purge—when destroying his own beliefs with his own hands, Old Ward has nothing he dared to do.
Some things are not done, just because there are friends drinking and chatting with friends, which makes such things boring.
but. No matter how boring things are, if they touch the bottom line, Old Ward will definitely not be polite.
It was as if ants were crawling in front of them, who would care
But once the ants lie on your body, who will pay attention to it
Especially people with bad tempers will definitely bounce ants away. Those who are trampled to death, and who are in a worse mood, will find a pot of hot water and pour it into the ant nest.
Of course, Old John understood what his friend was going to do—aren't people from the Holy See the best at things like eliminating dissidents
but. That doesn't mean he wants to do such a thing.
So very natural. Old John sighed lightly and said, "Some things don't need to go on!"
"What do you mean? Are you ready to give up?"
Just as Old John knew about profiteers, the profiteers also understood Old John. The tone of his friend made the profiteers startled—he remembered very clearly that no matter how hard he tried to persuade him back then, he couldn’t change his friend’s decision, but now it happened overnight. , completely changed.
That's odd enough.
"Still, are you going to..."
The profiteer guessed what his friend was going to do.
"We are now in the winter of 992 in the Wizarding Calendar. The real recorded riot, which affected the entire wizarding dynasty, should have been in 994!" Old John said.
"Well, that's right, it's like this in history!"
The profiteer nodded—the books in the Holy See, the records of the demon hunters, and the books of all forces are all recorded in this way. Obviously, this is a relatively accurate number. Even if there is an error, it is definitely very small. Ignore The kind that doesn't count.
"The location of the outbreak was near the snowy night, because of a conquest among nobles!"
Old John continued talking.
"Well, it's like this - one is the little girl Xue Ye who helped us, and the other seems to be a certain earl or marquis in Detland (near the Frost Forest area)... I can't remember the name of that guy!" Recalling, "It seems that this guy wantonly captured free people to become slaves and started a larger slave trade activity, and the other party's search team entered Xue Ye's territory and destroyed a village. After that, the two sides fought. The guy was beaten back and forth, so he had to call in reinforcements and move back to the situation!"
"However, in the end, it was the wind of the sun and the backdrop of the King of Knights on the stage-a team of 30,000 people, plus 500 wizards, were swept away by the two... After that, those losers couldn't help Willing to be like this, once again contacting those who can be contacted, and starting another counterattack, and being favored, the freed people and slaves who were liberated joined the two men!"
"This is the beginning of the collapse of the entire wizarding dynasty!"
Taking a deep breath, the profiteer concluded like this, and then, the next moment, the profiteer said distressedly: "However, until now, we haven't found the Wind of the Sun or the King of Knights! In the entire Snowy Night territory, I will I haven't seen a person who fits these two images, but there are quite a few drunkards!"
"You forgot the most important point!"
Old John said with a sigh.
"Well... that girl, Grand Duke Xue Ye!"
After being reminded by Old John, the profiteer immediately came to his senses, and he slapped himself on the forehead, "That's right, the beginning of this dispute was between Duke Xue Ye and that earl or marquis, and the wind of the sun will appear later." And the King of Knights, that is to say, if we keep a close eye on the girl, Grand Duke Xue Ye, we will be able to find Xiri Zhifeng and the King of Knights!"
"That's right! So. We can leave now and go to Duke Xue Ye's territory!"
Old John nodded. Said.
"Are you going to agree to the request of that girl, the so-called 'sword master'?" The profiteer looked at his old friend in surprise, "Then you really leave those guys here?"
"As you said, who is the one worth saving? We can't judge subjectively, and it takes time to judge for us!" Old John smiled, put the sword box on his back, and said: " Moreover, I believe that if I am willing to take over the job of 'Huntermaster', that Grand Duke Xue Ye will not mind, I will take out some food to help the surrounding mountain people!"
"Leave now?"
The profiteer asked as he saw his friend getting ready to go.
"Some things, the sooner the better! We want to make a good impression on our employers!"
Old John answered like this.
"what ever!"
The profiteer shrugged and stood up too. Walking out of the shack with air leaks on all sides, under the gaze of many extremely complicated eyes, he left this camp that could not be called a camp at all, and disappeared soon.
The owner of those many eyes became pure at this moment.
Or regret, or gratitude. Or... hate!
…
In less than ten minutes, the seven captive Solar-class were left with only a pile of shells, or... more precisely, only a layer of 'skin' left.
The flesh, bones, and internal organs. Including the soul, it has completely disappeared.
How to do it with your contract partner. Ye Qi is not interested, he just needs to know that all the plans have been going well so far, and everything is under his control.
White flames flickered in the room.
When the room returned to normal, there was nothing left of the seven captured Solar-class soldiers except for a smear of ashes; therefore, when the coalition forces issued a request to 'redeem' the prisoners, Ye Qi directly let them Nusti refused on his behalf. To put it simply, the envoys of the coalition forces were driven back without even entering Hongye City.
"Damn! This is a humiliation to me!"
Acting as an envoy, Demante Xin, who was about to enter Hongye City to find out the truth, sat on his horseback, gnashing his teeth.
He could completely imagine the ridicule he would face when he returned to the coalition camp.
Just like the eldest son of the Nisge family before, not only was he beaten violently by the superiors of each family, but more importantly, his reputation was lost!
Demant Xin can be sure that the other party is not only the loss of the inheritance rights of the Nisger family, but also, in order to appease the anger of the various families, the patriarch of the Nisger family will definitely throw the other party out without any consideration to appease the public anger. —This is obviously not a difficult task for the patriarch of the Nisge family who has three other sons.
After all, to enjoy everything in the family, one needs to be responsible for the family.
This is the awareness that all family members should have.
Demant Xin is no exception, just like this time he offered to serve as an envoy, his starting point is still for the Xin family.
Once successful, it will definitely bring the Xin family and his personal reputation to a higher level, and erase the disadvantages of the coalition forces last time.
As for failure, as long as it is decent enough, it is nothing; after all, he who made the request and took the initiative to go is already commendable for his courage.
However, Demante Xin did not expect that he would not even be able to enter the opponent's city gate!
And this, absolutely, is not decency!
However, because of this, Demante Xin became more and more sure that there must be some shady secrets in Hongye City—we must find a way to find out...
Thinking of the changes in De Kui and the Hyde family in the past year, the thought in Demante Xin's heart became more and more eager, and the previous anger was quickly replaced by another kind of enthusiasm; he picked up the whip , pumped his mount, speeding up his return.
He needs to consult with his two 'allies'.
As mentioned by Lot Gamanou, the Xin family, the Gamanou family and the Sastley family formed an alliance in response to this incident—although Sastley still maintained his own reserve at the beginning , but after seeing the conversations and smiles among the leaders of various families, he quickly agreed to the request.
Obviously, because of the stupid eldest son of the Nisger family. The superiors of various families have already begun to unite; and in such a union, once they are isolated. The result is self-evident, as long as it is a normal person, he will understand what to do.
Thinking of Sastley's pretentious appearance, Demante Xin subconsciously smiled sarcastically—for the sole heir of the Sastley family, apart from lamenting the other party's luck, he also despised the other party's ability, so ambitious The appearance really made him sick.
certainly. Compared with the other one, it is really much better!
Erdney Poll!
Saying this name, Demante Xin gritted his teeth again—the other party's high-ranking, defiant tone and attitude, it is destined that the two sides can only be enemies!
I will definitely make you regret it!
Demante Xin let out such a roar from the bottom of his heart, and the anger that had just subsided surged up again. Followed him all the way back to the coalition camp.
And when he saw the neatly armed coalition camp and the turbulent wind, he was taken aback for a moment—at this moment, the appearance of the coalition camp was completely different from what it looked like before he left. The previous one was mixed with everything. But the distinct appearance should be his accurate memory.
However, when Demante Xin saw the seven family emblems erected in front of the large tent of the coalition army. Immediately, his body was startled—the Seven Great Families have arrived!
After such thoughts appeared in his mind, Demante Xin jumped off his horse almost instinctively. Respectfully, he knelt down on one knee in front of the carpet leading to the large tent of the Chinese army, and shouted loudly: "The Xin family, Demante, please see your highness!"
At this moment, Demante Xin seemed to be a fief noble who saw the real king.
But in fact, that's the case. Looking at the leaders of the various families kneeling on one knee, one can understand what the so-called seven major families in Qiulin District are like.
In the past, the high-ranking members of the various families, at this time, looked solemn, respectful, and even knelt down in front of the tent of the Chinese army with fear, especially the eldest son of the Nisge family who had just been beaten violently. At that time, there was only trembling left.
"stand up!"
The majestic voice came from the large tent of the Chinese Army, and Demante Xin felt relieved. Looking at those family leaders who were still kneeling, a glimmer of pride flashed in his eyes—obviously, he was acting as an envoy to Hongye City What happened made a certain His Royal Highness of the Seven Great Families have a good impression of him.
However, Demante Xinke was not dazzled by such joy.
After all, he did not complete his task—so Demant Xin still knelt there on one knee, and even said more respectfully: "Demante Xin, who has not completed his task, begs for forgiveness, Your Highness!"
"Not finished? Sure enough, it's another waste!"
Another mocking voice sounded.
He was angry in his heart, but Demante Xin didn't dare to refute at all, he just nodded and said: "Demante Xin has disappointed your highness!"
"Charles was the only one who was disappointed, not us—we agreed that you would get nothing, and Charles confirmed that you would get something... So, something inevitably happened, and we made a bet; now it's time for Charles to redeem you bet!"
A sarcastic voice said slowly, and then, there was a burst of laughter in the large tent of the Chinese army, either high-pitched, low-pitched, or sharp.
It's like a group of demons dancing wildly in the abyss of hell.
Let these senior members of the various families kneeling on one knee hang their heads even lower, and dare not even look there, especially at this time, Demante Xin swept away the joy before, and the rest is Trembling like the eldest son of the Nisge family - he made a highness lose his dignity in front of many people, and the result...
In fact, Demant Xin's idea can only be maintained so far.
The next moment, his head flew high, his body swayed feebly, and then fell to the end of the carpet, making the bright red carpet more vivid, and even under the bright moonlight, appeared There was a sense of strangeness.
Demant Xin, the heir of a medium-sized family died just like that.
The senior members of the various families present showed no sorrow or pity, as if it should be so. Even his allies did not even look at his corpse at this time.
boom!
The head was thrown on the ground and rolled continuously. The soil on the ground made the head bloody, and the original appearance could not be seen clearly for a moment.
Like those who died on the battlefield.
"Quack quack! Charles, I helped you, how do you thank me?"
Amidst the sharp laughter, there was an undetectable tremor in the big tent of the Chinese army, and then it quickly returned to calm; none of the high-ranking members of the families present noticed it, or some of the powerful ones noticed it, but they still Pretend not to notice; after all, Demant Xin, who died before, is still in front of him.
If there is any accident at this time, then Demant Xin is a lesson from the past; after all, for the seven major families, except for each of them in the Qiulin District, everything is... ants!
"enough!"
The majestic voice resounded again, like a lion roaring, and the tarpaulin of the Chinese army's tent was blown apart with a bang.
In the moonlight, seven figures sat there, looming.
"Everyone, don't forget why we left the capital!"
The majestic voice came from the middle of the seven figures, and the thunderous sound was like the humming of a hunting lion crawling in the grass - a hungry lion needs prey to satisfy its stomach, so , its claws are sharper.
Of course, more often, there will be other helpers to capture prey for the real lion—
"Charles, Benny, go and kill the blockers, leave no one behind!"
