Being able to leave hell alive and having the courage to go back to hell again is why Batchelor has always trusted Lance.
He lost the mountain demon and must find it. Even if he cannot find it, it cannot fall into the hands of the enemy.
Lance returned to the dungeon and continued to complete his work. Every year he would select a girl to give to the young generals, and also select some strong refugees to give to other officers.
As for the remaining skinny refugees, they will be sent in batches to the square in the west of the city, where a group of bugs will come out of the rocks and eat their flesh and blood.
The remaining refugees who are dying, about to become corpses or have already turned into corpses will be thrown into a large pit. They will disappear automatically the next day. It is said that at night, there will be silt that will eat them up.
There is probably no more disgusting job in the world than sending compatriots to the devil as food. Some handymen were driven to madness, and several even committed suicide.
But most people quickly adapted to this kind of life, and they even shamelessly asked about the devil's taste.
"Sir, look at how strong this young man is. He was originally going to be given to Sir Nishizawa, but I specially left one more for you."
Lord Nishizawa is the young evil general. Some say he is a sand demon, while others say he is a rock demon. Although they know that he eats at least one girl every day, the servants are not afraid of him, and many even think twice about it.
Be close to him.
These servants were very envious of Lance because he had the opportunity to serve Caesar. In their opinion, as long as he gained Caesar's appreciation, they would be able to survive and even live a noble life.
But Lance knew the fate of these people very well. When the evil demon leaves Qingque City, most of them will die, and the few who are taken away will also be used as army food for the evil demon.
The evil spirits regarded them as captive animals. In fact, their lives were even more humble than animals. Just thinking about their faces back then makes people laugh and cry.
These refugees made a vow on their way out: "The Golden Eagle people would rather die proudly than bow to Reggie Victor or the devil's lackeys!"
Dusk is approaching, and the handymen are about to usher in the happiest time of the day. They can get a bowl of porridge, and lucky people can also find a piece of meat in the porridge. There is no meat or livestock in Qingque City. Everyone can imagine
They can get the source of this meat, but these humble people have long forgotten the bottom line of being human.
Lance walked up to a man and took advantage of the opportunity to chat and secretly put some ingredients into his porridge.
This man's name is Qiao Mu. He is as "lucky" as Lance and has the opportunity to serve Caesar directly.
Tonight it was his turn to be on duty, and he would stay in front of Caesar's door all night to serve Caesar's "unexpected needs."
But something unexpected happened tonight, and he seemed to have more emergency needs. After eating, he kept having diarrhea. He had diarrhea eleven times in less than an hour.
His legs were weak and he was top-heavy. It was difficult for him to speak, but he had not forgotten the important mission tonight.
"My duty time is about to come, what should I do? If I leave the castle midway, Lord Nishizawa will kill me. If I spray on my pants..."
"Don't worry, I'll keep watch for you tonight." Lance generously extended a helping hand and cooked a bowl of hot soup for Jorah. After Jorah fell asleep, Lance covered him with a mat.
It was my last apology to him.
After arriving at the castle, Lance stood politely in front of Caesar's door for half the night. There were no guards in front of his door. He firmly believed that no one in Qingque City had the strength to kill him.
Killing him might have been a good choice, but Lance didn't do that. His target was the mountain monster, and not doing anything other than the target was also the survival rule of a spy.
He quietly came to the door of the mountain demon, and there stood a stone man. He was motionless, and he didn't know if he was asleep.
When he came to the Golden Eagle Kingdom to perform a mission, Lance naturally had a way to deal with the rock demon. He pulled out a steel needle from his shoe. The steel needle was hollow and contained poison specifically designed to deal with the rock demon.
This is a weapon that Swindell and Hurley spent a month developing. Although it is not suitable for large-scale destruction, it is very suitable for assassination.
Lance quietly came behind the stone man, aimed at the connection between the head and the torso, and inserted the steel needle neatly.
The stone man's head turned slightly, and then lost all reactions. It could not move or make any sound. After half an hour, the bugs in the stone would turn into pus.
Lance walked around the stone man, took out a small awl from his other shoe, and opened the door easily.
The room was dark, and it seemed that the mountain demon had fallen asleep. Lance breathed a sigh of relief. He would not show mercy even if the other party was awake, but sleeping would save a lot of trouble.
He quietly came to the bedside and used a ray of moonlight outside the window to find the place to strike. The awl used to open the door has now become a murder tool. The strike must be precise. The first blow must pierce the carotid artery, and the second blow must strangulate.
Sever her trachea.
Lance found the right place and stabbed the awl in. Unexpectedly, it was like stabbing into a stone. Instead of piercing the flesh, the awl's tip was bent.
Lance was shocked. He had just looked very carefully and saw that there was no protective gear around the opponent's neck. He really didn't expect that this mountain monster actually had a body of copper skin and iron bones.
Lance was still looking for an opportunity to take action, but he saw the "mountain demon" sitting up calmly, rubbing his neck and saying, "I was so careless, I almost got hurt by a maggot."
Oops, it was Caesar's voice. Lance subconsciously glanced at the bed and found that the real mountain demon had also sat up. There were two people on the bed. Caesar slept with the mountain demon tonight.
There was a huge difference in strength between the two sides, and if they continued to struggle, they would only die in vain. Lance ran away, but Caesar did not pursue him. He grabbed the hair of the mountain monster, and the mountain monster let out a heart-rending wail.
Several rock demons rushed up to intercept them. Fortunately, Lance was quick enough and rushed out of the castle before being surrounded.
But when he came to the street, the situation seemed to be bad. He heard the bell on the tower.
According to the original plan, after killing the mountain demon, Lance would escape through the nearest east gate, but when the bell rang, all the city gates would be closed.
A group of rock demons chased them out, and now they could only escape and watch one step at a time. Lance still rushed towards the east gate, but he heard a voice in his ears.
"You can't go to the east gate, go south. There is a way out to the south!"
Who is speaking? It seems to be the voice transmission technique of the mountain demon.
"You must believe me. All the city gates are closed. You can't escape. There is a secret passage under the south gate. Someone will rescue you!"
