Chapter 269: Cruelty and greed for money
There are countless corpses on the battlefield, and among these corpses, there is naturally an occasional lucky one who faints on the battlefield due to their injuries, and they wake up after the battle. Some of these people crawled back to their barracks with strong perseverance, and after being rescued, they recovered from their injuries and waited for the next chance to return to the battlefield and die.
Some people are not so lucky, they just wake up for a while, and finally their lives are terminated because of the end of life in their bodies.
has been on the battlefield so many times, experienced so many battles, taking advantage of the moonlight, Wu Xue practiced his own unique exercises. When the blood was drawn, I also met many soldiers who were lucky not to die.
It has been said before that there are two endings for the lucky soldiers who are not dead on the battlefield, although those two endings are the most common on the mainland, but when Wu Xue appeared in this world, the soldiers who were lucky to be found by Wu Xue on the battlefield appeared a third ending.
Following the voice, through the moonlight, Wu Xue walked in the direction of the injury. Wu Xue's eyesight is very good, perhaps because of the type of exercises he cultivates, Wu Xue's eyes tend to glow faintly red at night. Wu Xue didn't know what such brilliance meant. But Wu Xue knew that since she had such a gaze, her power had become better at night, even in a very dim environment, Wu Xue could clearly see things in the far distance.
The entire battlefield was a dead corpse, and any moving object was extremely conspicuous in Wu Xue's gaze. Red leather armor, covered in blood. Wu Xue confirmed. The surviving injury was that of his own city-state.
With an indifferent expression, he walked towards the position of the injured person, and the closer he got closer, the clearer Wu Xue heard the injured cry for help.
A drowning person will hold on to even a straw. In the same way, the injured man was seriously injured and dying at the moment when he heard the sound of slight footsteps not far away, and under the excitement of emotion, the soldier immediately began to shout loudly for help. However, because the injured body was already extremely weak at this moment, the voice for help was only a few rays louder than before.
Wu Xue heard the injured person's cry for help rise slightly, and couldn't help but show an intriguing smile on her face.
"Secretly said that he was originally running for you, even if you didn't ask for help. I'll come over too. ”
The battlefield was littered with corpses, which overlapped each other and piled up. The originally flat ground was made very rugged. However, such a rugged road is difficult for Wu Xue, Wu Xue is like an elf under the moonlight, and his toes point to the points he thinks are quite hard, and with the help of these points, Wu Xue quickly approached the injury.
Several Remnant Caves. The air was filled with nothing but the remnants of the rippling blood mist. All that's left is the shallow depression on the top of the heads. Those depressions were all left unconsciously by Wu Xue when she borrowed strength. Although these depressions are inconspicuous, they also show from the side how terrifying Wu Xue's kick is, even if it is just by borrowing power, it can shatter a person's skull. Wu Xue has such strength, can he really measure Wu Xue as a small soldier?
Nobody knows. Even Wu Xue herself, Wu Xue only knows how to practice her own kung fu every day, and rarely fights with others, and almost no one knows that Wu Xue has unique skills. Because when she first came to this world, Wu Xue saw the power of heroes. That huge strength and powerful exercises can kill a large number of small soldiers in an instant. Since then, no matter at any time, Wu Xue has tried her best to stay away from heroes, whether it is the enemy or her own.
Wu Xue understands the world, but he doesn't know himself, if there is a hero who can really pay attention to Wu Xue, then this hero can find out that Wu Xue's strength should have reached the level of a hero, in other words, as long as Wu Xue goes to the government to report, then he can rely on his own strength, very lightly obtain the title of a city-state, and then become a hero.
Wu Xue doesn't know, Wu Xue doesn't know anything, because the government has always been the place that Wu Xue is most reluctant to approach, it is full of the dirt in the political family and the aristocratic circle, and a decision there, there will be countless soldiers outside who will pay for it, compared to the government, Wu Xue would rather join the military directly, because directly joining the military, Wu Xue will only be an inconspicuous soldier. No one cares about his life or death, and Wu Xue can be passive and slack off on the battlefield very lightly. However, if you pass the government and become a hero, then Wu Xue will become the attention of thousands of people, and it is impossible to be passive and slack off, because every time you go on an expedition, the heroes will have their own tasks. The heroes have no countermeasures other than to finish them, and even heroes can't bear the charge of desertion.
"Save me, just me!"
Wu Xue walked to the side of the injured person, and the injured person finally saw Wu Xue's identity clearly at this moment, and he was his own soldier. If it can be his own soldier, then his hope of being rescued is even greater, and in an instant, the wounded soldier's eyes burst out with a strong light of hope.
This ray of hope contains a strong desire for life, and although everyone in this world has a belief in loyalty to the city-state, this does not mean that these people do not have a desire for life. These people are still very happy to be able to die, and I can continue to serve the city-state in the future with a useful body.
Seeing the strong light of hope in the eyes of this injured person, Wu Xue was also sincerely happy for him and leaned over gently.
"Poof!" The dagger pierced into the flesh and blood, the injured person's face instantly condensed, and the light in his eyes gradually darkened, and the injured person who had been pierced into the skull with a dagger would probably never understand why he died, why Wu Xue wanted to kill him, they were obviously comrades-in-arms of a city-state.
Why did Wu Xue kill him, if this soldier had the energy to carefully observe Wu Xue's condition at this moment, he would immediately understand. In such a tragic battlefield, Wu Xue did not have the slightest trace of blood on her body, nor did she have any injuries. Even heroes can't guarantee this on the battlefield, and Wu Xue is just an ordinary soldier, the reason why he did this. Then the answer is obvious, Wu Xue must be avoiding war on the battlefield to be like this. Wu Xue is not a pedantic person, Wu Xue, who died once, is particularly desperate for her life. Anyone who might threaten his life, Wu Xue would be soft-handed. Like this wounded soldier, Wu Xue has killed a lot, from the beginning of the heart will still have a trace of guilt, to now Wu Xue has done such a thing very calmly, calmly, it is clear that an old killer should be suzhì.
The scale of battles between city-states is generally not very large. There were dozens of people at least and hundreds at most, but this time the scale of the battle between the two city-states was unprecedented. Wu Xue's city-state of Talio did his best, mobilized more than 10,000 troops, and fought a decisive battle with the neighboring city-state of Sita, and several major battles were over. The entire battlefield is densely packed with corpses, and the entire wilderness is like a hell on earth. It is precisely because of the fierceness of the battle. So there weren't many surviving injuries on the battlefield. In one night, Wu Xue ended up with five seriously injured injuries from his own side, and seven people were killed by the injuries of the hostile camp. Compared to extracting blood essence from corpses to strengthen his body, Wu Xue prefers to kill these living survivor soldiers, after all, the living have more blood than the dead, and the essence power in the blood is much more than that of the dead.
Wu Xue is constantly looking for suitable corpses on the battlefield, and occasionally encounters some special corpses, Wu Xue will also scavenge their bodies clean. Forget the expression, Wu Xue is not only afraid of death. Another characteristic is the greed for money. The money and possessions of the dead on the battlefield are still ornamental. Wu Xue will not let go as long as she encounters it. If no one collects these things, they don't know where they will be taken by wild dogs, and no one will take them anyway. Although the reputation of making a fortune from the dead is not very good in any world. But Wu Xue didn't care about this.
"Give money for nothing, don't give it for nothing."
Some blindness, when the night was still two hours before dawn, Wu Xue stopped her movements. In one night, Wu Xue basically said that fifty percent of the corpses on the entire battlefield had been drained of all the remaining blood essence in their bodies. You know, this is a battlefield of 10,000 wrecks. Fifty percent of the corpses can be close to 5,000 people. The corpses that were originally fine turned into 5,000 dried corpses in one night. Once this kind of thing is discovered by the officers of the two sides at dawn, Wu Xue will definitely be in trouble, and the best solution is that after the two armies fight, there will be people from the two armies left to take care of the battlefield.
The Valoran Continent is a huge continent full of human city-states, and humans are one of the most numerous races on this continent. That's right, the Valoran Continent is not just a human race. There are many other intelligent races, some of them are very small and scarce, but some of them are definitely not lower than the number of humans. One of the most famous intelligent races, and the only one Wu Xue has found in this world so far that matches the race in the League of Legends world in his memory-Yodelers.
The swift scouts in memory, the McLin gunner, the Giggs, and the woods, these familiar heroes are loved by many players in League of Legends. In the Valoran Continent here, Wu Xue had not heard from any of these heroes, and in Wu Xue's opinion, it was very likely that these people had never appeared on the Valoran Continent......
Or...... Chapter 4 Alley Tavern
Wu Xue once thought that either these heroes never existed in this world, or these people were not born at the moment.
There is no familiar Demacia, and Noxus. There is no war college. Some are just the original Valoran continent, with a forest of city-states, a variety of races, various city-states and various races, constantly fighting with each other, constantly shuffling between forces, and countless lives are killed on the continent every day, and countless lives are born. Powerful heroes, their immense destructive power, splitting mountains and rocks. Although the world is big, the heroes seem to be unafraid of the shackles of this world.
Seeing the broken mountains and rivers, and the barren world, Wu Xue suddenly realized one day that there was nothing wrong with this being really the Valoran Continent, but this was not the League of Legends game that he was familiar with, in which the War College had been established and the League of Legends had been established, all the heroes were fighting in an extremely civilized environment in an extremely orderly environment, even if they died in battle, they could also be reborn through the Guò Resurrection Platform.
This is the world before the earliest rune wars on the Valoran continent. It was a world without any order, and power was in the hands of the nobles at the top. These nobles took advantage of the power in their hands. Seeking the best interests for themselves, these people will not care about the lives of the people or the safety of the world. Profit is the only insistence in their hearts.
While the moonlight has not yet fallen. Wu Xue took out another skin bag from herself, opened this skin bag, Wu Xue came to the edge of the battlefield, selected a few corpses that looked good, and Wu Xue opened the skin bag in her hand. When the skin is opened, a rich aroma comes from inside. It seemed that she had long been familiar with this aroma, so Wu Xue's face did not show any abnormal expression.
The liquid in the skin was evenly poured on top of several corpses on the edge of the battlefield. Then Wu Xue put away the skin bag and took out two small stones from herself. Wu Xue holds a stone in each hand.
"Click!" Wu Xue slammed the two stones into each other. When two fast stones collide quickly, the edge of the collision of the two stones sparks splashes. These are just two very ordinary flint stones.
Wu Xue aimed the direction of the spark splash at the corpses that had been impregnated with the mysterious liquid, and when the sparks fell. Several corpses burst into flames in an instant. The liquid that Wu Xue had just dumped on several corpses was an extremely flammable liquid.
When the corpse burns. The liquid volatilized, and the entire battlefield gradually began to diffuse with a rich aroma. Seeing that the plan was smooth, Wu Xue put away the flint. Eliminate the traces you left on the battlefield, and make sure that you don't leave a trace. After that, Wu Xue dodged a few times. It disappeared into the middle of the mountains and forests in the distance.
The war also ended. At this time, Wu Xue could not return to the city of his city-state. In order to prevent the spies of the hostile city-states from breaking into the city, no one can enter the city without a special pass approved by the military.
Wu Xue has experienced this kind of war more than once in the past few years, although this time the scale is the largest, and the losses of the two sides are also the largest, but Wu Xue is more able to speculate that the real end of the two city-states will end soon, because the number of dead is too large. Neither city-state could afford to continue such a deadly war, and the only solution was a temporary truce. The armies of the two city-states each returned to their own city-states, cities, to recuperate, continue their strength, and wait for the battle to be fought later.
Although Wu Xue is only twenty years old, she is already a four-year veteran and has a deep skill in surviving in the wild.
The Valoran Continent is a world where the natural environment is well preserved, although there are extremely powerful demonic beasts in many areas, or very unfriendly humanoid races, but in the vicinity of the city-state, there are only some wild animals with docile personalities, and Wu Xue can hit a lot of wild animals here very lightly. Set up a bonfire, bake the food you have brought together, and if you are thirsty, you can drink the water from the spring in the mountains. In short, as long as you have the strength, then you will never starve to death in the wild. In fact, if Wu Xue didn't want to rely on the corpses on the battlefield for cultivation, Wu Xue would not have joined the army again and again, if he was afraid of death, he would hide directly in the mountains, and he would not starve to death, and the people in the city-state would not go to the mountains to catch strong men.
The battle that Wu Xue participated in during the day was a decisive battle between the city-states of Taliao and the city-state of Sita, and the battles between the two city-states were carried out several times on a small scale in the next few days, and the number of casualties was only around the hundreds. After several battles over the next few days, the commanders of the two city-states finally gave the order to withdraw their troops. At this point, such a war that seemed to be a complete farce in Wu Xue's eyes was finally over.
With a brisk pace, when Wu Xue reappeared in the Dark Descent City, it was already a few days after the end of the war, this continent is like this, the distance between the various city-states is still relatively far, the cities within the city-states, the plains built in the mountains, and only a few cities within the city-states are relatively close to each other, and generally the two city-states are far away from each other, so once the two sides withdraw their troops, their respective cities do not need to worry about the hostile city-states having troops to surrender for a sneak attack.
A large-scale attack can be detected from a long distance, but a small-scale sneak attack poses no threat to the enemy at all.
After returning from the deep mountains, Wu Xue had already changed out of her original military uniform, and replaced it with a set of civilian clothes that she had hidden in the mountains.
The coarse cloth clothes of the most ordinary commoners. Wu Xue wears it on his body, others will not look at him much when they look at Wu Xue, there are many people who are dressed like Wu Xue, most of these people are farmers living in the mountains outside, and they come to the city to buy salt and other necessities of life.
The atmosphere in the city of Darkspawn is not overly depressing because of the many soldiers killed in this battle, although death is disgusting, but the long-term brainwashing of the civilians in the city-state by the city-state's high-level makes the people here think that it is honorable to dedicate themselves to the Federation, it is the highest honor, and under the stimulation of honor, life and death are not so sad.
Walking on this familiar path, Wu Xue tried her best to avoid pedestrians on the road. In the Darkspawn City, Wu Xue knows extremely limited people, not because Wu Xue herself is very withdrawn, but because Wu Xue does not dare to know too many people, otherwise Wu Xue will not be able to continue her desertion journey.
Deliberately lowering the brim of his hat, Wu Xue walked into a very dilapidated alley, although it is said to be dilapidated, but it is also compared to the main street in the city, and there are some storefronts on both sides of the alley like the commercial street of later generations, rice shops, noodle shops, butcher shops, hotels, and taverns. There is everything, the decoration is not very luxurious, this is the place where the commoners come for the longest, and there are luxurious hotels and mansions on the central street, which are not affordable for the commoners.
Walked straight towards a very ordinary tavern. Entering the tavern, Wu Xue found a table at random and took a seat.
"Get me a piece of rice wine, and I'm taking half a catty of braised beef. Take two more side dishes. Wu Xue threw a silver coin on the table, and the clerk in the hotel took the silver coin and respectfully gave Wu Xue a salute.
"Wait a minute."
The clerk left with the silver coin, Wu Xue glanced at the inside of the tavern and found that there were not many guests except himself today. The few who are not of the human race are either. There are a lot of humanoid races on the Valoran continent, and even high-IQ beasts, Valoran has an extremely enlightened attitude towards the human race compared to the world that Wu Xue has crossed over, which even Wu Xue has to be an adult, even the United States, a country that calls for human equality, does not do as well as Valoran Continent. Here, as long as you prove that you have advanced wisdom and have a social nature, then society will recognize your human rights. There are many humanoid races living in the human world, and the race with the largest number of humans in this Darkspawn City, but there are also the Minotaur race, but there are not many of them, and the Yodel people, the number is the second largest number of humans in the Darkspawn City.
Wu Xue gave the clerk a silver coin, but the clerk didn't deliver the food quickly. Combined with the situation of the only few guests in the tavern, this situation is obviously not normal, but Wu Xue is not surprised, it seems that he himself has expected such a situation.
It was a long time before the clerk arrived.
"I'm sorry, sir, the rice wine in the tavern is gone, but we still have some sorghum wine upstairs, I don't know ......"
"Well, sorghum wine is also fine, where is it, take me there." The two of them had a skillful conversation back and forth, and to outsiders, it seemed that the tavern had no rice wine, but the guest did not inform him when he had set it before, and expressed his guilt to the guest, so he was invited to sit on the second floor.
Although the tavern in such an alley is a place where civilians always come, but among the civilians there are also rich and poor, the second floor of the tavern is obviously higher than the first floor, Wu Xue's dress at the moment, dressed as an ordinary mountain man with no money, if you rush to the second floor directly, it is too eye-catching. Therefore, Wu Xuecai staged such a scene with the people in the tavern. The clerk in the tavern is Wu Xue's old acquaintance, and he is also one of the few friends of Wu Xue in this world. The owner of the tavern is an old man, and the old man is not human. Although it looked very similar, Wu Xue knew that the old man was definitely not human, and his complexion would be dark red without humans. Even if some of the exercises are practiced, there will be some visions on the body, but those visions will only be revealed when the exercises are performed, and no visions can always exist.
