0332 Thomas's Death
City Lord's Mansion.
Ten carts were parked in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, and soldiers were moving materials from the warehouse to build the teleportation array. Six wagons were already full.
Thomas was talking to a storekeeper at the warehouse door.
"You can't take it like this, you've already taken three batches, if you take it like this again, I'll be killed if I am found out in the future!"
The storekeeper said worriedly.
Thomas smiled and comforted him: "I have given you so many benefits, you can leave here and find a strange place to start over, there is no need to stay in this place." ”
The storekeeper shouted: "But this is an iron rice bowl, where can I find such a good treatment!" ”
Thomas gave him a blank look and said, "Then I can't save you." Since you're willing to stay here and die, good luck. ”
There are already nine carts full of materials.
Thomas walked over and said to the captain of the escort: "Quick, send these nine cars to the teleportation array first, go over, I'll be there later, speed, fast!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
The soldiers drove nine carts out of the back door towards the portal.
There was a large cart left to load the goods.
The secretary upstairs was looking at the gate of the city lord's mansion from the window, when suddenly, he saw the city lord's carriage guard enter the gate and go towards the square.
The secretary is anxious, it will be too late to inform Thomas again, and he will expose himself! After thinking about it, he could only write a letter in a hurry, and while no one was paying attention, he released a carrier pigeon and flew to the camp.
God willing, may Thomas get out!
The secretary secretly prayed to God to bless Thomas and his pigeon to arrive safely.
The secretary watched as the city lord's guard stopped at the edge of the square, but there was no one in the carriage, and he didn't know where the city lord had gone!
When Thomas saw that the convoy had gone without a trace, and that he would be able to reach the teleportation array in another seven or eight minutes, he let go of his worries and thought to himself, I am afraid that he will never come back after leaving this time.
Suddenly, a crowd of soldiers rushed up and surrounded them and the wagon.
Locke, the lord of the city, came over with a few soldiers.
After glancing, Locke walked to the front of the car, looked at the materials on the car, and asked, "Thomas, where are you going to take these materials?" During the war, these were military materials. ”
"My lord, this is none of my business, I am persecuted!"
The storekeeper hurriedly begged for mercy.
Locke didn't even look at him, walked up to Thomas, and asked, "Without my approval, you take away military materials without permission, this is a capital offense!" ”
"I was only 20 years old when I came here, and I'm still a designer, and I'm here to give all my youth and wisdom to the city," Thomas laughs. I'm old too, and now, the city doesn't need me anymore. ”
Locke asked, "Tell me, where are the rest of the carriages?" ”
Thomas said: "When I came in, it was still when the previous lord of the city was there, and he wanted to make the rock city tall and mighty, so it took nine years to build it, and finally the city was built, and he left. Now, it's time for me to go. ”
Locke suddenly drew the sword of the guard next to him, poof! Poked into the warehouseman's stomach.
"Tell me where the carriage is!" Locke shouted.
The storekeeper's eyes widened in horror and he fell, dying without understanding why he had died like this.
Thomas laughed, "Come on, kill me, I will come alive from here and die from here." ”
"I'm not going to let you die like that!" Locke glared at him, left angrily, walked a few steps, turned around, and said, "I will make you ruined, die under your beloved city, and die under thousands of eyes!" ”
Half an hour later, a Xingtai had been built on the large square of the City Lord's Mansion.
The NPCs and players watching from the periphery of the City Lord's Mansion were crowded, and they all watched through the flower railing wall, not knowing what the city lord was doing. This is the first time since the founding of the city that such a big movement has occurred.
The soldiers lined up in two rows within the walls of the City Lord's Mansion, nervously facing the crowd of black oppressors.
The soldiers were escorting Thomas and 2 soldiers in the cart, whom he had brought from the camp, but the city lord had also tied up the 4 soldiers who were carrying the materials, who were already in the warehouse.
They were on stage, and everyone was tied strongly.
The people outside immediately started talking, and they didn't know what was going on.
Locke, the lord of the city, and the secretary came up to the stage.
The secretary looked at this scene, he really couldn't bear it, but he had no power at all, no way at all, even if he had the ability, but if he was too partial to Thomas, maybe he would be tied up by Locke.
Locke walked to the center of the stage and said loudly, "Dear residents of Rock City, I am your beloved Lord Locke. Today, I'm going to punish some of those who dare to go against Rock City, and I think you should all take a look at it and take it as a warning. ”
Walking up to Thomas, Locke said: "Thomas, this old man, he has worked for the country and the city of rocks all his life, but now he is leading foreign thieves to steal military materials, this is an act of treason, a crime!" ”
Wow! Although everyone didn't know Thomas, a lot of people started talking about it.
When everyone was almost finished, Locke said again: "I gave him a chance, but he didn't want it, so you can't blame me." I'm his friend, but I'm his boss, and I'm thinking about the whole city! ”
Thomas said angrily: "Locke! You bastard, kill me, these children are innocent, let them go! They just obey orders! ”
"You hurt them!" Locke said angrily, "Tell me where the materials went, and I might consider releasing them." ”
Thomas said, "Let them go, and I'll tell you." ”
Locke didn't speak, he walked straight behind the first soldier who was tied up, and pulled out the long knife of the soldier behind him, click! A single knife cut off the right arm of the first soldier.
"Ahh
The soldier rolled on the ground in pain, blood splattering.
The people outside all looked at this scene in horror, this was not like the act of a city lord at all. And there are some people or players who love it, and they all cheer loudly, as if this is something to be praised.
Locke looked at Thomas's painful expression and smiled, "He still has a left arm, I'm ready, what about you?" ”
Seeing that Thomas didn't say anything, Locke walked over to the rolling soldier, poof! A knife stabbed him in the heart, and the soldier struggled for a moment, but did not move, and blood spread.
Thomas suddenly laughed and said with a smile: "You know, Locke, you're just an insatiable coward, you're scared, you're afraid that someone will oppose you, aren't you?" I can tell you for sure that when you cut down with the knife just now, you have already lost the hearts of the people, and you are waiting for the day when you will be punished, haha! ”
Locke walked over, drew the long knife of the soldier next to him, and stabbed Thomas in the chest.
Watching Thomas fall to the ground and close his eyes, the hot blood gushing out and flowing down the countertop.
Locke turned to leave, and said to the secretary, "Kill them all, hang them up for three days!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
The secretary turned around, looked at the calm expression on Thomas's face, and couldn't help but think about his destiny.
Nangong Sima lingered with Zhao Xiaomei for half the night at night, and he didn't know if things were going well in the game, or if he was happy on his birthday, and he was brave and abnormal, so Zhao Xiaomei begged for mercy twice before giving up.
By the time I woke up today, it was already noon.
Zhao Xiaomei made a delicious lunch, the two of them had a Lang Man lunch, chatted about some trivial things in life and interesting things in the game, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks together, checked the doors and windows, and entered the game cabin together.
As soon as Nangong Sima went online, he saw the alpaca in his heart sitting behind the desk watching him.
"What's wrong? With such a serious expression? ”
The alpaca in his heart said, "Thomas is dead." ”
Nangong Sima was stunned for a moment, still not believing it, and asked, "Dead?" How did he die? Could it be that someone sneaked up on it? ”
"No, when I went to the City Lord's Mansion to get the materials, I was caught by Locke and stabbed to death in public." The alpaca in his heart handed over a note, which was a letter sent by the carrier pigeon sent by the previous secretary.
Nangong Sima hadn't digested this information yet, and while he was surprised, he opened the note and read it, which read: Thomas is in danger, the material convoy is in danger, save quickly!
The alpaca in my heart said: "After receiving the carrier pigeons, I sent 10 men to the city, and sent 100 soldiers to meet them, but the material convoy was a total of nine, and the people who came from the teleportation array, and the people who went to the city witnessed Thomas's death. He described the situation at that time.
After hearing this, Nangong Sima suddenly grabbed a teacup and fell, shouting, "Locke! Locke! ”
The alpaca in his heart said: "President, the reason why Locke is doing this must be that he is ready, and he is not worried that we will go to war with him, so we also need to hurry up and deploy as soon as possible." ”
Nangong Sima took two deep breaths and said, "Well, you're right, this conclusion is very clear. You ask your people to reach out to the secretary a little bit more and implement it further. Also, how is my plan going? ”
"The road has all been closed, the team is correcting, and tomorrow we will leave for the savannah. Carry supplies along the way. In addition, we find two rivers in the eastern part of the Great Forest, which run through the entire Great Forest, and two freshwater lakes in the middle, both of which are very large. ”
"The Flying Eagle Clan's trade continues, and we already have 3,000 military horses, more than 800 livestock, and a large number of supplies, which are being placed in Horseshoe Mountain."
"But there is no news from the bottom of the bag, and Xiucai has not replied. The Red House has formed an alliance, and the top 12 guilds in the guild ranking have all participated, with a total of more than 30,000 people, all of whom are above level 40. ”
Nangong Sima had already regained his senses, thought for a while, and said, "I will open the prairie this afternoon!" Work overnight shifts, recruit the army, and if you have a hundred and ten, let them go undercover in my two brothers' families. ”
"If we find the river, then we will set aside 500 people to build a river along the river and establish a stronghold, fighting is not the goal, our goal is to have the ownership of the south!"
"In addition, we are beginning to prepare to apply for the southern part of the country to be added to the mission map system of living players, so that the system can start to pay attention to the south, so that it can contain Locke's movements."
"I'm going to make them lose a mess!"
"Yes, President."
