Chapter 553: Capital Offense
Time flies, it has been a year since the construction of the "Sunset Fortress" began, and this huge project that gathers the strength of the entire continent has initially achieved results, in the "Temple of the Brave", Josephine looked at the huge map in front of him, which shows the progress of the current "Sunset Fortress".
The person who introduced the process was obviously a little proud: "It is really worthy of Lord Josephine, with a command, all mankind has moved, this "fortress on which the sun never sets" has been completed by about one-fifth, as long as there is some time we can ......"
"A fifth?" Josephine raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "I should have said that it would take for this "Fortress of the Sun to Never Set" to be completed. ”
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on the man's forehead: "But my lord...... According to your requirements, every inch of the walls of this "fortress on which the sun never sets" must be of the highest standard, and it is difficult to make such progress in such a situation......"
"I don't think what you say is so true......" These words did not come from Josephine's mouth, but a girl behind Josephine, but none of these people present dared to underestimate her, this is also Josephine's right-hand man, and it feels like Lord Sylvia has always been mysterious.
Sylvia is proficient in spiritual magic, and there are some truths and some falsehoods in these words, so naturally she can't hide them.
Mistress Sylvia laughed...... Since it was Lord Josephine's order, how could the villain dare to disobey him......"
The identity of this middle-aged man in front of him is not ordinary, he is from the Strease family, his ability is also obvious to all, this year the construction of the "Sun Never Sets Fortress" is mainly responsible for him, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is indeed doing very well, everything is going on in an orderly manner.
There was no joy or sorrow on Josephine's face, but it was precisely this that gave people a more terrible feeling, and no one knew what the supreme lord was thinking.
"You've done a great job over the year, there's no denying it. ”
"Thank you, please rest assured, as long as it is the request of the adult, I will try my best to do ......"
"Can you really do it?"
"Of course, as long as it is commanded by the adult, the villain will do everything. ”
"That's strange, why are some people different from you?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and his head, which had been lowered, became a little flustered, but his face was still very decent: "The adults are laughing, the villains are ......."
But Josephine did not let him speak, but clapped his hands, and immediately a guard brought in a box from the outside, and he did not know what was in the box, and there seemed to be a rolling sound inside.
Many people present began to discuss, wondering what happened to Josephine suddenly, and whether this box contained a reward?
There was a warm smile on the corner of Josephine's mouth, but these people who had been dealing with Josephine for a year all lowered their faces in unison, and everyone knew that Josephine's mood could not be measured by the expression on his face.
"A year ago, when the construction of the "Sunset Fortress" began, I already said that this is the last fight, the last battle of the human race to eliminate the demons, and naturally it requires the joint efforts of all of us. ”
"Actually, I'm very happy, I have seen the efforts of everyone here in this year, the construction of the "Sun Never Sets Fortress" is also progressing step by step, I admit that although my strength is strong enough, but I can't stop the endless army of the Demon Realm, I need the strength of all of you here, here I want to say thank you to you. ”
There was a sudden sound of harmony below, it seems that there should be a reward in this box, and some people's faces finally relaxed, and even some expectations, what kind of reward will the strongest person in the mainland come up with?
"But......" Unexpectedly, Josephine's words suddenly changed, still smiling, but somehow it made people feel creepy: "There are always some people, even at this most critical juncture for the survival of mankind, they still think about themselves." ”
"No way, this is the inferior nature of human beings, there have been since ancient times, and such moths are always inexhaustible. ”
Josephine paced to the box and then stretched out her foot and knocked it down: "But sometimes, these moths still need to be cleaned up. ”
The box was knocked down, and the things that were originally locked in the box suddenly rolled out, and everyone present couldn't help but be terrified when they saw the things that suddenly rolled out.
This box is full of human heads!
And there are many people you all know, and it can be said that all of them are characters with heads and faces.
Josephine smiled at the pale-faced middle-aged man: "How many of these people have you visited?"
The middle-aged man fell to his knees with a thud: "Lord Josephine...... I...... I'm just trying to make the progress of Sunset Fortress a little faster...... I definitely didn't mean that......"
Josephine smiled faintly: "These people accept bribes, and at this juncture of human life and death, they naturally deserve death, as for you, I haven't convicted ...... yet."
When the "Sun Never Sets Fortress" was built, there were many nobles who had a lot of resources in their hands, but the more people like them, the more reluctant they were to take out their life's work.
And these of them always have a variety of ways to slack off and let you not find a handle, for them, often give some small favors is the most useful, middle-aged people know the truth of this, so he has spent a lot of effort in this year to get through the relationship between these people.
But those who had received small favors from him were now all beheaded and put in this box!
Josephine smiled faintly: "Don't be so flustered, I know you haven't embezzled much, but in the past year, you have spent a lot of effort on these people, and now I will help you get rid of them all, can you greatly shorten the process of this "fortress where the sun never sets" for me?"
The middle-aged man didn't feel a little happy when he heard this, his hands were not so clean!
It's just that he understands Josephine's means in the end, and he doesn't dare to stretch out his hand for much longer, obviously this is still within the scope of forgiveness compared to his own ability, and Josephine wants him to make meritorious contributions.
"I ...... I will definitely build the "Fortress on which the Sun Never Sets", and I will definitely ...... within four years Don't ......" The middle-aged man gritted his teeth: "Within three years, I will definitely build the strongest fortress beyond the reach of the demons!"
