There is not a single green plant on the bumpy ground, and the mountain peaks in the distance are devastated as if they have been chewed by something. This place was not originally a plain, but a forest.
The sky is hazy, and the surroundings are wrapped in fog. This is not ordinary fog, but a strange phenomenon caused by countless magic collisions, and it may also be mixed with deadly poisonous gas.
If you look carefully, you can see the trenches one after another. Soldiers from the Russian Empire are scattered in the trenches. Their eyes are empty. Some are sitting on the ground in a daze, some are not lost in concentration, and some bow their heads in prayer.
At this time, in the trench almost at the front, five very well-equipped people were sitting together. Uncle Greer was humming a tune and cleaning his two worn-out swords. Lilith was wearing a hat and was closing her eyes.
Eyes resting; Auro stuck the giant sword on the ground as a backrest; Elf Tatora piled five small mounds on the ground, with wooden strips inserted on them, and the language of the elves was engraved on them. She clasped her hands and faced the mounds.
Goodbye.
Lin Chad yawned. How many days had it been since he came to the battlefield? He forgot. Anyway, it felt like it had been a long time.
Modern magic warfare far exceeds his imagination. There is no scene where two armies charge together. You can't see the other side, and the other side can't see you. All kinds of terrifying long-range attack magic are blasted at you. It's like looking at
Whoever kills the same number of soldiers.
The role of these soldiers, apart from being destroyed by the opponent's artillery fire, is to protect the city wall.
At this moment, there was a sudden terrifying roar on the battlefield. In an instant, a huge laser flashed across the battlefield and hit the high wall. Suddenly, more than ten huge magic arrays appeared on the wall, blocking the laser.
Boom boom boom~
The surroundings suddenly became a lot darker. No, no, this laser was too bright. The ground shook, and the soil was shaken and fell into the trenches. To the soldiers in the trenches, it was like a rain of stones.
, sand often gets inside along the gaps in the armor, which makes the day uncomfortable.
The laser lasted for about six or seven seconds, then slowly became smaller, and finally disappeared. Then suddenly it lit up behind the wall, and countless fireballs shot into the sky, covering the entire sky at once, flying over the battlefield, and then there was an explosion.
It keeps coming.
Things like this have happened countless times, and there has been no major action from either side.
"It's so boring. I really want to rush up and kill a few enemies, or be killed by them."
Greer blew his sword and it was stained with dirt. His jokes always made people laugh.
Others ignored him because they were not in the mood or had the energy.
At this time, a crying voice came from afar, and it seemed that someone had collapsed again.
…
On the second day of the cruise, the room on the Beaver was nice, but the shaking was uncomfortable.
There was an irritating sound early in the morning. The Demon King woke up early and found that the corridor was crowded with people. They gathered around Room 06, discussing something.
"I heard he died last night, and the door was locked. I don't know who did it."
"Last night? It's strange, we didn't hear anything."
"Maybe it was covered up by the sound of the waves. There were traces of fighting in the room. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be no sound. The sound must have been heard next door..."
After saying that, everyone looked at a strange man with a black sun painted on his forehead. He had a very high hairline. He didn't know where he was from, and his earlobes were frighteningly large.
"Don't look at me, I didn't hear anything."
He said coldly that his weapons might be a few iron rings around his waist, but that would be too strange.
No one said anything. In any case, he was the biggest suspect. There were three people living in another room, and they all said that the other was in the room. Even so, they could not escape the suspicion.
"Everyone, listen to what I have to say!"
At this time, someone stood up. He was a middle-aged uncle who lived next door to the Demon King. He had a small team and was followed by three sailor-looking people.
"My name is Langkins. There should be friends who have heard of my name. I am very sorry and sad that this happened last night. Don't forget, we are going to save people! Why are we setting off?
Sometimes, something bad like this happens!"
He looked sad.
"Longkins? Is it the maritime merchant Longkins?"
"No way! Why is he on this ship?"
As he expected, someone had heard of this name. Langkins was one of the maritime giants. He monopolized 10% of the maritime trading market and was very wealthy.
Therefore, everyone was very puzzled that such a rich man would personally go to battle and come to this unreliable ship. As long as he wanted to go to the Dead Sea Strait, he could even form a maritime army to escort him there.
"In this regard, I think the biggest reason why this happened is the captain's irresponsibility! It was caused by the unfair allocation of rooms. This could have prevented the tragedy." After speaking, Langkins lowered his head and observed a few seconds of silence.
.
Everyone also bowed their heads.
"It's all that bastard captain's fault! He actually let us sleep on the deck last night!"
"That's right! Why can you sleep in the room?"
"There is another person occupying a room!"
As he said that, everyone pointed their fingers at the strange man and the woman in white robe diagonally opposite the Demon King. She seemed to have noticed the Demon King's gaze and looked towards him.
"Everyone, be quiet. I have an idea about this! How about we elect a temporary person in charge and let him allocate the rooms fairly, so that everyone can stay in the room." Longkins said.
"Hey! This method is good! I agree!"
"I agree too!"
As expected by the Demon King, everyone except those with rooms agreed to the proposal, which meant that most people sided with Longkins.
A good trick. There are two types of people on this ship. One is those who are kept in the dark and think this is a rescue mission. The other is those who have other purposes and come for something on the ship. You can
It is concluded that the person living in the room is the second type of person.
Then the first type of people who don't have a room will definitely be very dissatisfied. Why are they all going to sea rescue together, but they don't get corresponding treatment? So they are very angry and can be easily incited by others.
"Looking at it now, I think with the current room allocation, four or five people need to live in one room, so I think the temporary person in charge needs to discuss with Mr. Man-Eating Shark and let him see if he can give up two or three rooms.
, at least it won’t be so crowded to live in.”
Here comes Longkins' method. He knew clearly that these people sleeping on the deck would never dare to talk to the man-eating shark, so he decided that they would not dare to come forward.
Others who have rooms to live in definitely don't want to do these troublesome things, and they are hated, and the people sleeping on the deck will definitely not support them.
The Demon King frowned. It seemed that trouble was coming. Langkins became the temporary person in charge. One thing he did was to make the second type of people exit the room. This was not only protecting himself, but also an attack. As long as he exited the room, then
It is equivalent to leaving his own safe area, and Langkins can take action at any time.
Or he may use the excuse of investigating the murderer to investigate everyone's luggage. The first type of people will definitely only bring daily necessities such as food and clothing, but the second type of people will be different.
"Let Mr. Longkins be the one!"
"Yes, yes! Come on, you have sailing experience and management experience. You are definitely the only one here who is qualified!"
Sure enough, Langkins was supported as the temporary person in charge, so the next step was how the owner of the room expressed his position.
At this time, many room doors were closed, and the Demon King also noticed a few pairs of eyes looking towards him.
