Chapter 229: I See His Ambition
Rainy night.
The people roared loudly and strode towards the stone house, as if they were a great army on their way.
The movement is loud at once.
The young magician on the balcony was startled, and he immediately released a shimmer spell towards the ground in front of him, and with the faint light of this spell, he finally saw the two corpses on the ground clearly, and his heart 'groaned': "Oops, I killed the wrong person!" ”
Seeing that the crowd was getting closer and closer to the stone house, the young magician was flustered and stunned for a few seconds, he turned around and ran back towards the hall on the first floor, shouting as he ran: "Oh no! Oh no! Those civilians have rebelled! ”
After a few shouts, everyone in the hall was woken up by him.
Lawson slept very deeply, he was not awake at first, he only felt that it was very noisy around him, and after a while, he felt someone pushing him hard, shouting something while pushing, and the voice was also familiar, as if it was Lilith.
'Is something wrong?!' ’
A stirring spirit in his heart shook up, and he sat up at once.
He saw that Anne, Lilith, Morbius, and the magician Tarot were all beside him, and not far away, all the magicians in the hall, whether they were injured or not, had all woken up, and everyone was watching him. It was still very noisy outside the stone house, and it seemed that there were many people shouting.
"What's going on?" Lawson asked busily.
A young magician walked up, bowed his head, and said, "I don't know why, the civilians outside the house have rebelled. ”
"Rebellion?" Rosen wiped his face vigorously, the whole person was completely sober, he listened carefully to the movement outside the house, and after listening for a while, he frowned slightly: "It's raining so hard, why don't you wake me up?" ”
"It's just been down, it's only been down for a while, maybe it'll stop later. Besides, we don't have a place to shelter the civilians from the rain, so how can they ....... if they get drenched in the rain," the young magician said in a low voice.
"Nonsense!" Lilith on the side couldn't listen to it at first, and scolded sharply.
Lawson rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, stood up and said, "Open the door, let people come in and hide from the rain." ”
"Wait!" Magician Tarot took a step forward and said urgently: "Lawson, there are more than 800 people outside, and the room is so big, at most more than 100 people can be squeezed in." Besides, in the middle of the night, what if there are monsters mixed in the crowd? ”
"That's a problem." Rosen nodded in approval, he thought for a while and said, "Then let the children, women, and the elderly come in first, and the injured come in to take shelter from the rain." ”
"But......" Tarot wanted to say something.
Lawson waved his hand to stop: "No, but, open the door now!" Lilith, you move the injured mage out of place and make more room for it. ”
"Okay." Lilith answered, turned and beckoned to a few young magicians, and the group began to get busy.
"I'm going to help too." Anne followed behind Lilith.
Lawson walked to the gate of the stone house, and with a wave of his hand, the boulder blocking the gate slowly moved to the side, and then he opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, a stream of cold water vapor hit his face, and Lawson couldn't help but shiver.
The door was already full of people, the nearest person, less than 5 meters away from the stone gate. Rosen looked over and saw that everyone was overwhelmed, and everyone looked angry, looking like they might rush up at any time to make a move.
Rosen felt a little strange, it was not their fault that it was going to rain, why did everyone look angry?
He raised his voice and shouted, "Quiet! Be quiet! ”
shouted several times in a row, but it didn't work at all, and the crowd was still extremely noisy. Rosen listened carefully to their words, and he heard words such as 'hand over the murderer, why kill people'.
'Murder? What's the situation? Lawson was a little confused, he looked around the crowd, and saw that in the crowd, several people were carrying two corpses, one large and one small, and the corpses had a large charred hole, which looked like it was caused by ray magic.
Lawson's heart moved: "Damn, that magician didn't tell the truth just now!" ”
Thinking of this, he immediately beckoned to the young magician who was reporting behind him: "Lantes, come here and tell me what happened?" ”
The young magician walked over with his head bowed, hesitantly.
"What happened to the bodies of the mother and daughter?" Rosen asked.
"That...... I...... I told them to stop, but they wouldn't listen. The rain was so heavy that I didn't see it clearly for a while, I just thought it was an incoming monster. The monsters are very fast, and I'm in a hurry...... I used a scorching ray. The young magician's voice was low.
Rosen understood and immediately felt that this matter was very tricky.
The magician Lanster's approach is understandable, and the woman is only in love with her daughter, and both sides are right. Deal with Lancet and send the sorcerer's heart cold. If you don't deal with it, the people will be angry, and if you don't do it well, the situation will intensify, and the consequences will be unpredictable.
Just as Rosen hesitated, Lilith didn't know when to appear behind him, and she whispered, "Rosen, there is no right or wrong thing, but you have to make a choice immediately." ”
"How to choose?" Rosen was like grasping at a straw.
"I can't help you. Because I don't know either. Lilith smiled wryly.
Rosen glanced at the panicked Ranster, and then turned to look at the angry crowd.
The mood of the people is already a little out of control, people are constantly squeezing forward, the person in the front, only 3 meters away from Lawson, things can get out of control at any time.
He had to make a decision right away!
Rosen's heart was crossed, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the sky, and a dazzling light appeared in his hand.
Ordinary people have a natural sense of awe of magic, and as soon as the vision came out, the footsteps of the people in the front row immediately stopped, and they subconsciously wanted to retreat.
But they were about to retreat, but the people behind them were still squeezing forward, and there were all kinds of roars from the crowd.
"The magician is going to kill again!"
"There are many of us, there are few of them, don't be afraid, rush!"
"Kill the magician!"
When the riot appeared, the crowd began to rush forward like a tide, and the scene instantly became extremely chaotic.
Facing the crowd that suddenly fell into chaos, Lawson's heart sank suddenly: "No, someone is secretly making bad things in the crowd!" ”
At this moment, the super fast reaction speed helped him a lot, and in his eyes, the crowd did not rush over, but 'moved' over little by little.
There were many and many roars from the crowd, but Rosen swept his eyes and saw a few malicious faces.
This is the enemy!
Incite emotions, create riots, killable!
Since he was an enemy, Rosen did not hesitate.
His eyes were fixed on the dodging figures in the crowd, and the energy in the energy pool was surging out.
This energy split into two parts, one of which pushed the air in front of him, creating a violent wind that pushed outward.
The wind was strong, but it wasn't explosive.
Pushed by this strong wind, the crowd that rushed forward stopped 2 meters away from Lawson.
The other part of the energy 'lightly' pushed down the 4 alloy bullets that 'jumped' out of the waist bag, and these 'bullets' flew out, crossed the crowd, and hit 4 targets each.
'Plop~Plop~'
The four of them fell to the ground, and the incomprehensible roar of the crowd suddenly disappeared.
At this time, Rosen continued to release a wave of energy and exploded towards the sky.
"Boom~"
A landslide-like tremor appeared.
A moment ago, people's blood was still instigated, and after the loud noise, the blood cooled down a lot in an instant, and most people subconsciously stopped.
Only then did Rosen shout: "Quiet! ”
The world was silent, and only the sound of rain remained between heaven and earth.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Lawson said sharply: "Everyone retreat, retreat 10 meters, otherwise, my magic will kill people!" ”
People suddenly remembered that the magician in front of them was a terrifying existence that made monsters shudder, they were just ordinary people, why should they fight with this person?
The blood that had just been stirred up quickly cooled, and the people began to retreat in silence.
After exiting 10 meters, Lawson said again: "Stop!" ”
Everyone stood still, looking at Rosen with fear in their eyes.
Rosen continued: "Now, listen to my judgment! ”
He pointed to the magician Lanster: "This magician, because he accidentally killed the mother and daughter, although he is not wrong, but he acted recklessly and should be punished." Annie! ”
"I'm here!" Anne walked up.
"Whip him 30 lashes!" Rosen said.
Hearing this, Lilith was silent.
The magician Tarot immediately walked up to Rosen and asked in a low voice, "Lancet didn't do anything wrong, why punish him?" ”
When Lancet saw that someone was supporting him, he stiffened his neck and said, "Rosen, I didn't do anything wrong!" Moreover, you are not an academy magician, so you are not qualified to punish me! ”
And that's not all.
Another voice came from the crowd: "He killed someone, and he only gave 30 lashes?" Is our lives so worthless? ”
"Murder pays for life!"
"Murder pays for life!"
Several people in the crowd immediately responded with their voices, and the mood of the people was stirred up again, and a commotion began.
The situation suddenly becomes very complicated.
At this moment, Rosen deeply felt that becoming a leader was much more complicated than engaging in scientific research. More importantly, he has no experience in dealing with such things, and he has no eloquence for debate.
'Can it only be subdued by force?' He thought to himself.
Because of the habit brought by scientific research in his previous life, he has always used absolute experimental evidence to make people irrefutable, and the compulsive action of force is basically not in his consideration, but now, it seems that this is the only solution.
Just as he hesitated, Lilith's whisper suddenly sounded in his ear: "Lawson, it's time to stand up!" ”
Hearing this, Rosen's heart was shocked, and he didn't hesitate anymore.
Originally, he wanted to evolve slowly, but now the situation forced him to use thunder methods.
He looked at Tarot and said coldly, "Have I allowed you to speak?" ”
Tarot was stunned: "Why do you want to allow it?" ”
As soon as Rosen's mind moved, energy poured out and injected into the air, which suddenly turned into a glowing air whip.
The invisible whip swung and whipped directly at the mage tarot.
"Smack!" With a crisp sound, the magician Tarot's robe was torn on the spot, and he himself rolled to the ground, convulsing all over his body, foaming at the mouth, and his appearance was beyond comprehension.
A decent magician, he fights when he says, and he hits so hard, this scene is quite terrifying.
Everyone was taken aback and speechless for a moment.
After smoking, Rosen glanced at Lancet, then turned to look at the crowd, and said coldly: "Who is not satisfied with my verdict?" Stand out! ”
The crowd was silent.
After waiting for three seconds, seeing that no one spoke, Rosen said to Anne, "Execution!" ”
Anne nodded, reached out and pushed Lancet to the wall and stood still, then took out a rope to act as a whip and began to whip up, 'crackling' the whip.
At first, Lancet couldn't hold back, and after holding on a few times, the rope broke the clothes on his back, revealing his thin underwear, and Lancet finally couldn't help it and began to cry out loudly.
A magician couldn't stand it, so he stepped forward and whispered, "Master Rosen, this ......"
"Huh?" Rosen glanced at him.
The magician was silent.
Soon, after 30 lashes, Lancet could no longer stand, he was lying on the ground, his body was trembling, and the clothes on his back could clearly see blood soaked out, and his appearance was miserable.
Seeing that the high-ranking magicians were all beaten like this, everyone was speechless.
Lawson slowed down his tone and said softly: "It's cold on a rainy night, but the space in the stone house is limited, and it is impossible for everyone to go in and take shelter from the rain. Now, children, women, the elderly, the wounded, come into the house and take shelter from the rain. The rest of the men will work with me to build a makeshift canopy. ”
That's fair, and no one has any objections.
Soon, about 200 people were selected from the crowd and entered the stone house. Rosen led hundreds of strong men into the rainy night, collected usable wooden planks, branches, and pieces of cloth in the ruins, and built a shelter against the walls of the stone house.
In the stone house, old Claude and Vincent, one old and one wounded, huddled in the corner and roasted the fire.
Under the warmth of the fire, old Claude slowly recovered, his face was ruddy, he looked at the figure who was busy in the rainy night, and whispered to Vincent beside him: "Well~ The hero defeated the poisonous snake." ”
Vincent was still worried: "It's only temporary. The rain was an accident, and our real problem was food. ”
Claude smiled, "Vincent, have more faith in your friends." I have seen his ambition and he will definitely do his best to solve the food problem. ”
