56: Belial's Conspiracy
Jilala's prediction of distance was correct. A day later, the convoy arrived at the periphery of Kaltim and stationed on a clearing ground located in the platform near Kaltim.
Because there is a platform with a high and low difference, you can see the scene of Kaltim standing on the platform... But it can't be like in the game, it feels like it is above Kaltim City.
This is understandable. If it was really so close, Bile would not have been able to detect the existence of Tyrel and Nefitian. Although he was full of lies and had the lowest combat power of the seven demon kings, he did not mean that he was a fool.
But although it is a bit far away, a telescope is enough to make up for all this.
Mi Shan stood at the best place in the field of view and raised her arms flat. The personal terminal on her wrist, which was like a bracelet, flashed a few times before projecting a light curtain.
He reached out and slashed the light curtain, and the scene in the light curtain was enlarged so that he could clearly see what Cartim looked like in the city.
The clarity is not enough to tell the face of each person, but what is happening in the city is visible.
Besides, there were no faces of a few people. There was obviously one-third left, which was the 300,000-strong city of Cartilem, which looked like an empty city.
If the palace guards in gray armor were not patrolling back and forth from time to time, they would even give people a feeling of a dead city.
After a closer look, Mi Shan found that whenever the guards passed by certain houses, the windows of the houses would quietly open.
It seemed that someone was looking at the guards passing by outside.
Mi Shan adjusted the screen, locked the moving windows and continued to observe for a while, and then returned to the camp.
During the period when Mishan was observing, this secret camp has been arranged almost the same as in the game.
The location of the blacksmith shop that was reopened has not changed much. The location of the gemmaster has become the library of Deka Kane, and the location of the enchanter has been used as the residence of Mishan.
Mishan doesn't care about the position of the enchanter who is occupied by himself.
Anyway, the enchanter will not be able to join until the expansion area of Westma. According to Mishan's plot, he will not know what the situation will be.
As for the location of the gemmaster where the library is located, I wonder if the thief god Shen Laotan is still staying in the sewer now.
When Mi Shan came back, it happened to be when the first wave of scouts came back.
Before Jilala could summarize Flavi's report, Mishan came over and said, "The remaining one-third of the residents were confined to their homes."
"Are you all?" Ji Lala asked as Mi Shan said something exactly the same as the scouts reported.
"It's almost the same, at least there were no large-scale casualties." Mi Shan said.
"No?" Ji Lala asked strangely. In her impression, she was very decisive in tearing off the disguise.
"Don't worry, if there are too many casualties, your angel sister can detect it." Mishan's words made Jilala turn her eyes to Dr. Ziegler who was cooking.
Dr. Ziegler, who noticed Ji Lala's eyes, said without raising his head: "The smell of blood around him is not heavy, it should be left behind when the Iron Wolf Guard was expelled."
Jilala blinked with unknown reason why Dr. Ziegler was so sure.
"Don't you notice the concentration of the bloody smell?" Dr. Ziegler, who was stared at the distrustful eyes, put down the kitchen knife in his hand, raised his head and asked strangely.
"...Well, I can only tell the concentration of sulfur smell in the air." Jilala said.
Mishan interrupted after hearing Jilala say this, "What about the sulfur smell of Kaltim now?"
"It's up to what I'm comparing with." Ji Lala said: "Compared with the Eternal Battlefield and the Hell Rift, the air here is as fresh as an oasis. Compared with the normal area, even the demon hunter who has just started, he can detect the demons entrenched here."
"..." Mi Shan pondered for a while and said, "I remember in the game, you characters seemed to have not been deceived by Hakan II, the King of Lies, who changed. Could it be this reason?"
"I don't know the others, this is true for me as a demon hunter." Jilala paused and said, "But I was about to get the Black Soul Stone before I realized that he was standing on Hakan II. I had always thought he was just an ordinary big demon."
As for why this illusion occurs, it is because Pile is too weak, so weak that even if Jilala recognizes the other party as a demon, she has no idea that the other party is the mastermind behind everything that happened to Cartilem.
"Maybe it is because Pilei is too weak that it takes the remaining 300,000 people as hostages." At the mobilization meeting of how to deal with these residents, Mishan's speculation immediately gained recognition from others.
Just like Ai Xila would be afraid of these 300,000 people, Mi Shan was a little difficult to deal with.
This is not because of the heart of the Virgin Mary, but because Mi Shan thinks that sacrificing 300,000 people to kill such a rookie as Pilie is not worth it, and it is very unworthy.
"...If it's worth it, will you do this?" Kadala asked curiously.
"...No..." Mi Shan said after thinking about it, "I will change my way in that situation."
"A different way?" Kadala showed curious eyes, but Mishan did not explain anything.
Afterwards, everyone continued to speak freely at the mobilization meeting, and no matter who it was, they could not come up with a good solution to the 300,000 hostages.
The best way is Abdu’s suggestion to dig a passage connecting the sewer and rescue all of these hostages.
The question is not to mention how long the passage in Abdu’s suggestion will take, and will there be any long nights and dreams happening in such a long time.
The King of Lies, who has been secretly transported by Aishira, will definitely take strict precautions for such behavior.
Everyone was confined to the room and did not give it out, and the lies messengers under Biley, who disguised as guards, patrolled for twenty-four hours.
Therefore, Abdu's suggestion can only be considered a solution that cannot be achieved.
Lea, who hadn't spoken much, said in a guessing tone when no one could think of any good idea:
"Did Biley, the King of Lies, really just treat the residents who remained in the city and didn't have time to evacuate them as hostages?"
“Will it want to do something to these people?”
Lea's words put the already silent meeting into silence.
After a while, Mi Shan opened her mouth and broke her silence and asked, "How did you think of this, Lea?"
Mishan also found that Leah's reminder was indeed very reasonable, too jealous of being a mouse, and that the situation where Pile himself was a rooster made everyone fall into the perception that Pile just treats these people as hostages.
I didn't expect that there was any possibility that Believe it, besides taking these people as hostages, would want to use these people to do something.
"It's just that I feel like this, maybe I think from the perspective of others." Lea said.
"It's... quite suitable." Mi Shan, who was originally trying to complain about the strange thinking of the devil king, suddenly remembered that Leya was a reserve officer of the Great Demon God. Although everyone knew about this, including Leya himself, this hidden danger was still not eliminated.
Deka Kane, who seemed to remember this, changed his expression. He crawled into his library without saying anything, and began to flip through the books of Heradim.
After a while, Deka Kane moved out a big book with a heavy expression. This big book records that Heradim did it, and many ways and records about demons doing all kinds of bad things with humans.
The two most common words are "sacrifice"
"Sacrifice? Is Bi Lie going to refine the country into a formation?" Mi Shan touched her chin and said.
As soon as the words were finished, everyone else turned their eyes to Mi Shan, and Ji Lala even asked: "What is the formation of a land refining?"
"A thing...what is fine if you see it, you can kill me." Mi Shan thought about it and said the result directly, without an explanation... It was also a question that was not a question.
