Chapter 505: The most reasonable devil (please subscribe for a 10,000-word chapter)
Have you been crushed in terms of strength by a skinny human?
Gromnir obviously did not believe in evil. He immediately picked up the [Ice Star] meteor hammer and attacked again, and also wanted to use his legendary expertise-grabbing expert to restrict the opponent's movement. Follow the counterattack.
If possible, it would be best to knock off the powerful magic sword that exudes the moonlight curtain, and engage in a fist-to-flesh, bloody fight purely with bare hands.
As a savage and cunning hybrid orc, he has defeated many powerful enemies in this way, even creatures much larger than himself such as fire giants.
So I am very confident in my own strength and physique.
Unless the opponent is a monk who is more proficient in unarmed combat, no matter how superb the weapon usage skills and steps are, it will be difficult to exert full strength in this kind of zero-distance grappling and tripping, and the result will be only He could die from suffocation due to constant beatings with his fists.
However, Gromnir apparently forgot that the key to a successful grapple is mainly determined by two factors.
One of them is the strength attribute, and the other is the size.
Since he himself is just a mixed-blood orc with a height of just over two meters, although he looks stronger, he is also of medium build, almost on the same level as Zuo Si.
This also means that the final confrontation will be reflected in the strength link.
When this guy wielded the meteor hammer to attack at tricky angles, tempting his opponent to keep raising his sword, he suddenly caught an attack gap, and he immediately took a big step forward and opened his arms. He was about to grab Zuo Si's waist.
Following the command, the simulacrum went around to the back to lock the shoulders and arms, and then used his knees to hit the lower back violently, breaking the spine that connected the nerves in the lower body.
It is easy to see from that ferocious smile that this is not the first time he has done this kind of thing, and he has extremely rich experience.
But the moment Gromnir successfully hugged his waist, he suddenly felt a huge impact coming from his abdomen.
The next second...
Bump!
He jumped into the air on the spot, and his arms flew out before he could close them tightly. At the same time, a large amount of mist-like blood spurted out from his mouth and nostrils.
While flying backwards, Gromnir vaguely saw the opponent's raised left knee with his vision blurred by the severe pain.
There is no doubt that it was this powerful knee that severely damaged the abdominal muscles and the fragile internal organs.
At this moment, he truly believed that the thin young human in front of him had truly crushed him in terms of strength.
The seemingly inconspicuous muscles contain some kind of terrifying explosive power that is completely inconsistent with their appearance.
Boom! ! ! ! !
With a loud noise, Gromnir hit the wall of the sewer hard, collapsing two walls in a row before barely stopping.
In contrast, Zuo Si on the other side was obviously shocked. He didn't expect that this big and round mixed-blood orc could be so insidious. He wanted to fight with himself even though he didn't use the powerful +4 enchanted weapon. Play wrestling.
You must know that although he studied swordsmanship with Sorin Markov for a period of time, and also mastered the gorgeous sword dance skills under the training of the dark girl Eilistraee, he had no experience in bare-handed fighting at all.
Especially when faced with grappling, tripping, and locking skills, once you are successful, you will most likely have to escape through magic, or you can rely on your own strong vitality and damage reduction to resist.
After all, he is a great devil with only one form. He also has the form of a purgatory dragon, a large number of protective spells, and the blessings of various divine powers.
It is really not an easy task to really cause effective harm to Zuo Si today.
At least mortals, especially warriors who rely entirely on physical attacks, basically don't expect to be able to do this easily.
What's more, the 40-point agility attribute on the attribute panel is not just for free.
The hurried knee strike against Gromnir’s abdomen just now is the best proof.
Although he may not have enough experience in hand-to-hand combat, his nerve reflex speed is several times that of the enemy.
This also means that unless the opponent also has the same level of super high reaction speed, even if he gets the upper hand, he may be counter-killed.
After knocking Gromnir away, Zuo Si exerted force on his shoulder and broke the simulacrum's hands alive with a snap, and then decapitated it with a sword.
After finishing all this, he raised his head and looked at the mixed-blood orc struggling to get up from the ruins and rubble not far away. He bent down and picked up the weapon that the other party had dropped on the ground, and asked with interest: "So ...Compared with using weapons, you are actually better at using techniques such as grappling and tripping to defeat enemies in close combat? I have to say, this gave me a very good revelation and experience."
"What the hell kind of monster are you?"
Gromnir spat out a spit mixed with this plasma, his eyes filled with incredible fear.
A spellcaster mage who can completely crush himself in strength, agility and melee combat?
Is it possible that such a person really exists?
At least in his knowledge, the only creatures that can do this are dragons, angels, devils, demons and other powerful races that transcend mortals.
Of course, there are also some ancient vampires or other high-level undead creatures that have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years.
“Haha, you don’t seem to understand that planeswalkers are different from the normal mages in this world, and they don’t have the weakness of not being good at melee combat.
Some specialize in melee combat. The planeswalkers even have the ability to regenerate infinitely and recover instantly no matter how seriously injured they are.
They can kill a heavily armed army with just their own strength.
Since you are about to die and your soul will be devoured by the Chaos Demon Dog, I will show you a little bit of my true power.
Don’t blink, because it will be over in an instant. ”
As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si raised his hand and made a gesture of grasping the void.
In an instant!
Gromnir felt himself The divine power and divinity belonging to his father Baal in the body are passing away rapidly, and along with it is the strong vitality of the legendary warrior
He could almost see his originally strong body drying up, wilting, aging at a speed visible to the naked eye, and eventually turning into a lifeless corpse.
As for the soul...
In less than a second after leaving the body, it was bitten by the ancient evil thing waiting on the side, and it was devoured in a few seconds, forever. Sex has completely disappeared from the world, and even wish magic and gods cannot bring it back to life.
Not only Gromnir, but his other men and the Sons of Baal also suffered the same fate.
In order to keep the secret, Zuo Si had no intention of letting anything alive leave from the beginning, whether it was people or their souls after death.
Obviously, since he obtained the perfect silence tool of Kozev, he no longer needs to take the risk of being discovered by the new god of death, Kelanvor, and imprison the soul in person. Instead, he can just let this guy eat it.
Even if Kelanvor used his priesthood and divine power to trace it, it would be impossible to know where the souls devoured by the Chaos Demonic Dogs had gone.
After a full meal, Kozev quickly returned to his usual black and white puppy appearance, running back to his owner and wagging his tail constantly, making a low purring sound, which seemed to express his happiness from this moment. mood.
"Well done! What a good dog!"
Zuo Si patted the other party's furry head to show encouragement.
After all, he used the gift given to him by the God of Craftsmen to build a brain, which gave him the consciousness and way of thinking of a loyal dog.
Even though this dog has higher intelligence than most humans.
After receiving the compliment, Kozev immediately rubbed his master's hand, his pupils shining with excitement and joy.
Soon, Zuo Si cleared the scene, including the [Helmet of Weller], [Star of Ice], [Belt of Power], [Boots of Speed], and the equipment equipped by Gromnir. [Agility Gloves], [Mithril Full Body Armor], [+3 Ring of Protection] and a series of other trophies were all packed up and taken away.
In addition, there are the gold coins and valuable gems filled in the big boxes, as well as the spell books, enchanted robes, and other items from high to low levels dropped from the mage. Storage ring.
As for the low-level magic weapons and equipment used by high-level cannon fodder warriors, they are relatively the least valuable among all trophies.
For his most powerful cronies, Gromnir has obviously spent a lot of money on these guys. It is estimated that more than two-thirds of the wealth collected from violent conquests has been spent on them.
Everyone is even equipped with mass-produced +2 weapons mixed with a small amount of fine gold and magical power. Even the arrows used by the archers are enchanted arrows instead of ordinary arrows.
In short, these things can be regarded as a windfall for any adventure team.
It is enough for them to end their life of licking blood and enjoy the luxurious life for the rest of their lives as a rich man.
Although Zuo Si has long disliked these things, they can just be used as rewards for players.
Especially [Weiler's Helm] and [Ice Star].
The former can create a simulacrum of the wearer out of thin air. The stronger it is, the greater its effect. Although it can only exist for a short time, it can often produce unexpected miraculous effects as long as it is used well. .
The latter was directly changed by him using his creator ability, from a meteor hammer to a cool-looking heavy sword.
The crystal sword body, which exudes a biting chill like an ice cube, is always emitting an azure blue light.
Not to mention the +4 enchantment level, the additional cold damage that can be caused when hitting, and the resistance to fire damage. This attractive appearance alone can cause players to scramble for it.
After all, Zuo Si was also a member of the gamers back then and understands this group’s fanatical pursuit of cool looks and special effects.
Coupled with the extremely high rarity, some people will want to get it even if they are afraid of losing their money.
When he thought of cutting another wave of leeks, a playful smile appeared on his face, and he immediately cast teleportation magic and disappeared.
……
At the same time, in the Tower of Dulag far to the north of the Cloud Mountains, another son of Baal, Aberdare, was locked in a cage and suffering great pain.
Some unknown spell kept stimulating the pain nerves, causing him to moan and curse.
"Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! I...I swear! Once I get out, I will eat your flesh! Drink your blood! I will tear you apart into pieces. !”
But unfortunately, in the face of all this, there was no expression on Irenicas’s face, as if he had not heard anything, and he continued to torture the other party until he was completely exhausted. Dying to lose consciousness.
You don’t need to ask to know that since defeating Sarevok, Aberdare and his teammates wandered around the Sword Coast for a while, and returned to Candlekeep to visit an old friend and give a message to his adoptive father Gillian. Sweeping graves.
As a result, when they were going south to go to Amn by land, they were accidentally plotted by a shadow thief. As a result, everyone was captured and given to Irenicas, who had been waiting for a long time.
As a result, he immediately started the research he had interrupted before.
As for the shadow thieves involved in this matter, it was entirely due to the guild war and the suppression from Zuo Si that many illegal businesses could not continue at all. The capital chain was almost broken several times, so we could only Continuously consuming previous savings to make ends meet.
As soon as I heard that someone was willing to offer a high price to kidnap an adventure team, I immediately agreed without even thinking about it.
There is no way, I am really poor and crazy.
With the protracted guild war showing no signs of ending, huge amounts of money are being consumed every day.
Whether it is recruiting and hiring people, or paying pensions to those who died, money must be poured out continuously.
Otherwise, if you are not willing to give money, who will work hard for the organization?
So Irenekas's list is like a piece of fat, easily letting the Shadow Thieves Guild fall into a trap.
In order to earn this money, Renoir Bloodhead personally led the team and used the few remaining paralysis toxins purchased from Zuo Si in the guild to kill everyone in a short time.
When he woke up, Aberdare found that he was locked in a cage and was subjected to inhumane torture every day.
He doesn’t even understand or understand the meaning of doing this?
"How is the progress of your research?"
As the son of Baal fell into a coma, Viconia, who was hiding in the shadows, slowly came out with a strong look in his eyes. of curiosity.
Since the end of the operation in Ximen, she has been staying here as Zuo Si's representative, responsible for observing the other party's every move and ensuring that he acts in accordance with the contract.
After all, clerics themselves are the eyes of the gods and god-like powers they serve.
As long as Viconia follows Irenikas, Zuo Si can see through her eyes what this crazy high-level elf mage is doing at any time.
Erenikas undoubtedly knew this, or in other words, he had never thought of playing tricks since signing the devil's contract, and immediately responded without thinking: "Hurry!
< br>I have glimpsed the secrets of gods, and the necessary conditions for becoming gods from mortals
As long as I do a few more experiments to confirm, I can start to peel off the divinity and power of this son of Baal, and create a new world for him. Be prepared to become a god yourself
And you and your master will also get what he wants. "
"Oh? Could it be that you secretly established contact with the dark elf matrons in Ust Nassa City in order to prepare for becoming a god? "
Viconia narrowed her eyes and probed cautiously.
Since she was a dark elf born and raised in Menzoberranzan, she has an evil and cruel nature towards her compatriots. I understand very well
Unless Erinikas offers conditions that the other party is interested in, the ruling families of Ust Nasa City will never make any promises, let alone agree to work with them. A filthy, lowly exiled surface elf reaches a partnership agreement
Yes!
Although Irenikas possesses terrifying magical power, in the eyes of dark elves like Viconia, he is still a lowly and dirty surface elf trash.
Even though he has been deprived of the racial characteristics of an elf, he can still be distinguished from the habits of his hands and feet.
“Otherwise?
Do you think becoming a god means taking away the divine power and divinity of several sons of gods?
No, that doesn't elevate a mortal to godhood.
Acquiring divinity is only the first step in transforming from a mortal. The next step requires faith or huge energy.
I obviously don’t have the patience and time to cultivate believers and the church bit by bit, so obtaining a huge energy source becomes the only option.
There is a Tree of Life inside the city of Soldanisla, a sacred tree that is favored and blessed by the elves and gods.
As long as I can seize all its energy, I can use it as fuel to ignite the power of divinity and ignite sparks, and finally enter the elven kingdom of Avado and become a member of the gods.
Since Sonnisla is protected by a strong magic barrier, I need to recruit many allies to launch the attack.
As the dark elves who hate the surface elves the most, they are naturally a force that can be used. Don’t you think so? ”
When he said these words, Irenicas exuded a strong resentment that could not be described in words.
You don’t need to ask to know that, in addition to the above reasons, In addition, he has another most important purpose that he has not stated, which is to take revenge on the elf city that exiled him and kill all the living things there
Viconia nodded with a smile. : “Of course, this is indeed a good idea.
However, I must remind you that you must be extremely careful when dealing with dark elves.
Because they don’t know when they will suddenly stab their allies in the back. "
Hearing this, Irenicas immediately burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! Danger?
Believe me, there is nothing more dangerous in this world than cooperating with your master.
Compared with him, the dark elves in Uster Nasa City are like harmless kittens.
It is all thanks to his generosity and kindness that I am where I am today. ”
From these words, Viconia undoubtedly heard strong resentment and dissatisfaction.
But what can this do?
Not even in front of herself Don't even dare to be incompetent and furious?
Thinking of this, she raised her lips slightly and comforted: "Don't worry, you have signed the contract. As long as you don't actively violate the terms inside, Mr. Soth will not treat you. How. After all, he is one of the few big devils in the world who is willing to reason when facing the weak. ”
"Hmph!"
Erenikas ended the conversation with a sneer, turned around and disappeared at the end of the intricate corridors and stairs inside the Tower of Dulag.
After the opponent was completely gone, Viconia came to Aberdare and was about to cast two healing spells.
It was found that the wounds on the son of Baal had begun to heal at an extremely fast speed, and were exuding a dark red mist full of pungent blood smell.
Out of caution, she immediately took a few steps back to observe this strange phenomenon carefully. After about two or three minutes, she frowned and whispered: "Is this the power that the Son of God inherited from the gods?
It’s incredible!
No wonder so many mortals long to become one of the gods.
Even the weakest demigod..."
After confirming that Aberdare was not in danger, Viconia immediately turned around and left the room, secretly going to Sancho and Ai Meng delivered the meal.
Because Viconia had been watching, the two little guys were not tortured and abused like Aberdare.
Instead, he was lying comfortably in the cage, resting and sleeping, and occasionally taking the time to exercise his magic and the divine power in his body.
There is no doubt that although Zuo Si has no intention of ending his life personally yet, he has not relaxed his monitoring of the sons of Baal. At the same time, he has also secretly figured out a few of them who have the support of gods behind them.
In the next stage, his goal is to use the "Five Descendants" to eliminate these unseeded players and let the real protagonists take the stage in the finals.
You must know that the Sons of Baal's fight for the Blood Throne is an out-and-out divine battle.
Especially the last few remaining, each one has the power of a quasi-god or even a demigod, and can easily destroy a planet.
Therefore, Zuo Si must prepare more than one method of killing gods in advance. At this moment, he was sitting in the splendid palace of Calimport, playing with the new inventions sent by the Church of Gond, the God of Artisans, while listening to the report from the Prime Minister of the Empire, Shaod Tarowen.
Since the merger of the two empires was completed, a total of five centers were established to facilitate administration and rule, that is, one capital and four auxiliary capitals.
You don’t need to ask to know the capital among them, it must be Askatra, the former capital of Amn.
The reason is also very simple.
If you look at the map, you will know that this port city is located right in the middle of the coastline and is also the most important maritime, air and land transportation hub.
In addition, business is extremely prosperous, and it is the most important money bag and handicraft industry base in the entire country.
The four capitals are Calimport, the most important and prosperous city in the south;
Baldur's Gate, which is connected to the north;
extends like tentacles into The west gate of the Sea of Falling Stars;
The important city Suldorfer guards the throat of the Steam Lake.
It can be said that each of the above cities has huge development potential. It is also the most prosperous and populous local area, and can radiate and control large areas of surrounding land.
As long as these cities can be controlled and developed, the strength of the West Coast Empire will grow steadily, bringing with it the relatively backward towns and villages in the surrounding and even inland areas.
However, although Askatra is the capital, Zuo Si and the top officials of the entire country generally live in Port Calim.
If necessary, you can reach any town with a population of more than 20,000 in the empire directly through the magic portal.
Yes, you read that right.
Due to having a large number of arcane spellcasters and mage towers scattered across the country, Zuo Sican frantically set up permanent portals in all important strongholds.
Want to rely on the advantages of inconvenient transportation and remote location to become a local emperor behind closed doors?
Want to create a gentry model in which imperial power does not go to the countryside?
Stop dreaming!
Imperial supervisory agencies, military, bureaucrats, and law enforcement officers can use these portals anytime and anywhere to reach any village within three days.
Note that this is a village not a town.
So the West Coast Empire’s terrifying advantages in grassroots organization and dominance are simply not comparable to any other country in Faerûn.
Of course, there is another more important reason for choosing to locate the administrative center in Calimport, which is that it has a very high literacy rate and educated people, as well as countless professional colleges of various types, which is very Suitable as a base for training bureaucrats.
Besides, Zuo Si is too lazy to build a palace symbolizing status and power in a place like Askatra, where land is so valuable, he can just use the ready-made one in Calim Port.
After all, this palace was built during the Xia En Empire. It was quite good in terms of scale, appearance and architectural style, which was very suitable for him.
“Your Majesty, with the popularity of airships, propeller ships and heavy magic carriages, trade within the empire has quadrupled in a short period of time, and tax revenue has also doubled.
Although we have formed many new departments and expanded the bureaucracy in accordance with your orders, after paying their salaries and the expenses of the army, there is still a considerable surplus
Personally. It is recommended that if you have no plans to build a new palace or purchase other luxuries, it is best to invest more money in building water conservancy projects.
Although we have already launched six irrigation water conservancy projects. Irrigation project, but it is obviously far from enough compared with the huge territory of the empire
The last thing is about unifying official characters and languages.
According to your request, we have unanimously decided to choose the lingua franca with the highest popularity rate at present.
If nothing unexpected happens, the corresponding books and teaching materials will be distributed to each city in up to one month, and will be taught by local public schools.
As for the issue of universal basic education, we can only barely do it in the administrative units at the urban level.
But fortunately, the Church of the God of Knowledge said it would help.
They said some free small classes would be held in areas with shrines and shrines.
I think this should save a lot of expenses..."
There is no doubt that Shaud Talovan is definitely a qualified prime minister from the report alone.< br>
Although he himself had the bad habit of accepting bribes and forming cliques for personal gain when he was serving Xian VII, he was able to manage the Xian Empire which had just experienced the war in an orderly manner
And. After Zuo Si came to power, this guy was very smart and immediately got rid of all his previous mistakes. He never accepted anyone's money again, let alone promoted his own party members for personal gain.
Because Shaud Tarowan knew very well that he was different from Shane VII who only wanted to maintain the stability of his rule.
The new emperor could not tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes.
He knew this early on when he studied the legal and political structure of Luskan.
Coupled with the example of the great family of Amn in the north being played to the point of death by the "Tweening Order", Shaud Tarowen, who had finally climbed to the position of prime minister, did not want a similar situation to happen to his own family. staged.
After all, unlike the monogamous Amn, all the powerful men in Kalingshan have more than one woman.
If there are many women, there will naturally be no shortage of heirs.
Which family head who lives to middle age does not have a dozen or even dozens of children?
Usually, except for the designated heir, other children will not receive any property at all.
You can only go out with a little money provided by your family and become a businessman, or a wandering adventurer or mercenary.
If this was the case, all the wealth would be divided equally among the children, and the entire family would cease to exist.
Therefore, every one of the rich and newly wealthy people who survived the purges of freeing slaves has unimaginable respect for the emperor Zuo Si, and they do not dare to make the slightest mistake.
No matter what kind of policy comes down, they will rush to cooperate, for fear that they will be included in the legendary blacklist if they are slow.
“Very good, if we continue to implement the original plan, I think the entire empire will look different in a few years.
As for building water conservancy projects, it is best to contact the local people Discuss it with the Magic Academy.
With the help of magic, many difficult construction projects will become much easier.
Finally, there is the issue of traffic roads.
Although we have a magic carriage that will not easily fall into the mud, the roads still need to be repaired.
At least make sure there is a smooth road between town and country that can be driven at high speed.
In this regard, let’s start popularizing it in densely populated areas. ”
Zuo Si gave the instructions without raising his head.
Because the entire bureaucracy and administrative system was completed, and the judicial system and two supervisory systems, one clear and one dark, were also online at the same time, he no longer needed to handle most government affairs personally, he only needed to give a general direction.
Shaud Tarovin hurriedly bent down and bowed deeply: "Understood, I will make arrangements right away."
Just when the imperial prime minister was about to turn around and leave, Zuo Si Suddenly he was called from behind: "Wait! There is one more thing. Send an army and enough officials to take over Saraduxu later." Son of Naobal? Are you sure you want to recover it at this time?"
Shaud Tarowen was slightly stunned.
"Don't worry, the Sons of Baal have just been driven away by a group of giant dragons and monsters. I don't think they will stay there for too long. Just send some people to receive them directly."
Zuo Si raised his head. He gave the other person a meaningful smile.
Shaud Tarovan was so smart that he decided to devote all his life to following the emperor when he met Shane VII for the first time. He immediately understood the subtext and nodded without thinking: "I got it. In the name of the cabinet, I immediately dispatched a thousand troops and fifty officials to march to Saraduxu."
I didn't ask for specific details, and I didn't want to know what happened. Whatever it is, just obey without hesitation.
He proved with practical actions why he could stand firm in front of two emperors.
What monarch wouldn't like such a minister who is smart, capable, and knows how to position himself correctly?
......
While Zuo Si was secretly controlling the Sons of Baal chicken competition and continuing to vigorously develop his west coast empire, he had no idea about the first batch of elite players being released. , has given that world a little shock of the "fourth natural disaster".
To be precise, after these guys disbanded on the spot, they quickly poured into several surrounding countries and unceremoniously started the natural disaster mode.
In less than a week, the monsters that originally posed a huge threat to human villages and towns began to decrease at an incredible speed, and some places were even subjected to genocidal massacres. .
You must know that the players were originally humans, so when facing enemies who were also humans in the previous world, they did not choose to go on a killing spree. Instead, they adopted a policy of basically giving preferential treatment to prisoners as long as they surrendered.
The only ones who are constantly being consumed and slaughtered are the nobles and slave owners who are accustomed to being aloof and do not treat civilians as human beings.
But now, when it comes to facing non-human races, their most terrifying side finally breaks out.
That is, you can kill anything that can give you "experience points" and "trophies" without any psychological burden or guilt.
Whether it is the intelligent goblins and ogres, or the unintelligent dog demons, basilisks, demon wolves, giant snakes, giant crocodiles, tree men, giant insects, and flying dragons, no one can escape in the end. One calamity.
Especially the Tob Forest, which is close to the kingdom's border city - E-Rantel, was completely devastated.
When many local adventurers enter this area, they will inadvertently find a large number of corpses abandoned on the roadside, in the woods and grass.
Some even piled up into a hill, and exuded a pungent stench. Among them were some high-level monsters that had established regional hegemony.
Some of their heads were smashed with blunt objects, some had sharp arrows stuck in their eyes, and some were burned beyond recognition by unknown powerful magic.
Some monsters and beasts had their bounty-receiving parts or valuable skins peeled off, and their corpses looked bloody and terrifying.
Such a strange phenomenon made everyone in the entire city of E-Rantel, from the noble lords to the common people, feel deep fear.
Among them, the Adventurer's Guild has even offered a high reward, hoping that someone can investigate what is going on.
After all, they are really afraid that a powerful and unbeatable monster will suddenly appear in the forest, and then it will rush out and raze the entire city to the ground.
Don’t think this is a joke!
After all, it has only been a few hundred years since humans in this world got rid of being enslaved by other races.
Except for the Slane Theocracy, which has a large number of players' legacy, several other human countries have no power to resist at all when faced with real threats.
So whenever there is a big noise and something incomprehensible happens, the nearby human nobles and civilians will tremble in fear.
You don’t need to ask to know that all of this is the work of the players.
But if you think that only monsters in the wild are unlucky, you are totally wrong.
How could they let go of the aristocrats of this world when they directly wiped out the entire aristocratic class from the physical level in the previous world.
What's more, the nobles of the kingdom are notorious for being selfish, greedy, corrupt and evil-doing, so there is no psychological burden at all when they are killed.
In less than five days after arriving in this world, more than thirty notorious noble families were wiped out, and all family property and valuables were looted.
Even those protected by dozens or even hundreds of elite guards are no exception.
By the time they were discovered, the corpses on the ground were already rotting and smelly.
Such a frantic challenge to the authority of the ruling class naturally aroused the anger of the entire kingdom.
The nobles immediately united and elected a spokesperson to take charge of this matter, vowing to make the perpetrators pay with blood.
But it was only the next day that the bloody heads of the elected spokesperson and his family were placed next to the pillows of the nobles who shouted the loudest.
You don’t need to ask to know how much of a mental impact it has on a person to wake up early in the morning and see a bloody human head.
It is said that many people suffer from mental illness because of this. They lock themselves in a house without windows every day and dare not go out for several days in a row.
In an instant!
The country fell into silence from top to bottom.
It seemed that everyone had selectively forgotten the previous clamor, even the king himself and his princes who were vying for power were no exception.
After all, anyone who is not a fool will understand that the fact that these vicious gangsters can put their heads next to the pillows of the most powerful nobles in the kingdom means that they have the ability to chop off the heads of anyone, including the king, at any time. head.
In order not to provoke the other party to go to extremes and cause a bloody storm, the best way now is to deal with it coldly, and then privately send trustworthy people to investigate, find ways to contact and negotiate with them, and reach a series of agreements.
Seeing how the originally aggressive nobles were now frightened, Lana, the pride of the royal family and known as the Golden Princess, flashed a trace of disdain that was not easy to detect in her eyes.
She has always shown herself to be beautiful and intelligent, but in her heart she is actually extremely dark and crazy, and she doesn't care about the life and death of the royal family or even the entire country.
On the contrary!
Lana hopes that the mastermind behind this massacre can continue their efforts, preferably by killing all the nobles and their stupid brothers.
In this way, she can be crowned queen by right of succession and do whatever she wants with the kingdom as her toy.
As for what kind of demands the other party will make and whether they have to betray the interests of the kingdom, the princess doesn't care at all.
After returning to her palace after the royal meeting, Lana immediately met with the members of the "Blue Rose" adventure team.
As soon as they met, she immediately asked impatiently: "How is it? Have you got any results from the investigation?"
As the captain, Laisi nodded solemnly: "Yes, There are results. Based on our repeated inspections of the scene and surroundings, we can basically confirm that this incident was carried out by a group of powerful assassins.
The number of assassins was small, only about three to five.
With their incredible stealth skills, they were not discovered by anyone throughout the whole process, and the victim did not even see who the other party was before he died
According to the wounds on the corpse, all attacks were launched from behind and killed with one blow, even those warriors and knights with good strength were no exception.
I asked Tia and Tina, and they both said that at least they could never do this. "
"Could it have been done by Eight Fingers? "
Lana deliberately pretended to be nervous and asked.
Before Laisi could speak, Evileye, who was wearing a mask next to her, immediately shook her head: " impossible!
If Eight Fingers had such strength, they would have already infiltrated the nobles and controlled the entire kingdom through threats and intimidation.
But they just killed some notorious nobles and then took away all the valuable things.
The only thing that I can't figure out is why the other party only robbed the wealth of a few nobles despite having such powerful power?
With their strength, as long as they reveal their identity, I believe that no matter which country they are from, they will spend a lot of money to recruit them. "
