Chapter 49: Undercurrent (Part 2)
The previous encounter made the atmosphere in the team particularly strange, and several ladies expressed strong dissatisfaction with letting the three "rapists" go like this. The girl's experience and crying made the parrots eager to kill the three aboriginal aborigines on the spot.
However, under the obstruction of the aboriginal soldiers, except for Lalu, the "wife slave" who stood on the side of the girl, the rest of the male members chose to hand over the prisoners to the relevant laws to punish.
On the one hand, after a long period of education and brainwashing in reality, the idea of "abiding by the law" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. More importantly, this is not only related to the change of personal camp, but also directly affects the question of the income of the mission.
In this regard, men tend to be more rational than women most of the time, and they also have different attitudes towards certain things. With three more prisoners at the back of the line, several of the ladies became dismissive of the boys.
Mario couldn't stand the atmosphere anymore and turned around and asked, "Is it enough for a game like this?" Besides, those scum are not going unpunished. Do you want to vent your frustration directly? ”
"Wouldn't it be better to deal with this kind of scum and kill it directly." The parrot glared at Mario angrily, and immediately got the support of the remaining two ladies.
Barrett patted his head with his hand and said, "If you were in the wilderness, or in some uncivilized area, I am afraid I would agree with your approach." But don't forget that this is Karada, one of the few places in the West University 6 that has sound laws, so don't cause yourself unnecessary trouble on the spur of the moment. Even if you're not afraid of trouble, think about Mario! As a paladin, once he allows you to do what you have just done, he will have to do the task of atonement next. ”
"At the end of the day, you're more concerned about your own interests!" Bena muttered as she walked.
"If we care about our own interests, then you are just venting your dissatisfaction and anxiety by doing this, young ladies. Not to mention any high-sounding pretense of justice and justice, it is truly fair to leave it to the law. The anvil also opened its mouth at this time. This guy doesn't usually talk much, but today he played an official tone very slippery.
"Don't worry! Just after the disaster, in order to deter some guys, the sentences of these perpetrators will definitely be dealt with severely. When they get out of the pit, they won't have the strength to do anything like that again. Barrett looked at the three handcuffed prisoners at the back of the line, and made his declaration with great certainty.
At the same time, Barrett's words were corroborated by the Native soldiers in front: "The sergeant is right. These guys actually did this after the demon attack, and they really want to spend ten years in a quarry or something! ”
Even with the corroboration of the aboriginal soldiers, the relationship between men and women in the team has only been eased slightly. It seems that making a small character is a skill that women are born with and enjoys.
In addition to the initial atrocities, the robbery and brawls born in the ruins also appeared in front of everyone's eyes from time to time. With the increase in the number of treatments, the skills and cooperation of the blood-stained gray flower in the use of wooden sticks have also grown greatly.
With a blow on the inner lining of the legs of the current prisoner with a stick, one can easily make these 'battle 5 scum' fall to the ground. Then take advantage of the situation to clamp the opponent's back, and then control both hands, and you can easily grab these guys.
However, the turmoil after the demon disaster seemed to be a bit more than everyone imagined, and then there were more and more prisoners at the back of the team. In order to prevent them from escaping, the level of the team also dropped again and again. Fortunately, before the shackles and ropes were exhausted, Barrett and the others finally joined up with another patrol.
Under the guidance of the other party, everyone temporarily imprisoned these current criminals in a temporary detention center that was rarely preserved in the demonic disaster. And the other party contact personnel are responsible for the next guarding tasks.
"It's only been so long since we've been out to arrest so many active prisoners, and I don't know if the prison outside the city will be enough to accommodate such a large crowd when the riots have completely subsided." After a brief break, the Aboriginal soldier named Kitson began to chat with Barrett and his party.
As a paladin of the Lord of Justice, Mario has a relatively complete understanding of legal procedures. He could understand the Karada government's next solution: "Speed up the trial and disperse these guys to different parts of the country to serve their sentences." I think it should be able to solve this problem. But before that, I'm afraid it's going to be hard for you for at least half a month. ”
"If you can solve these problems in just half a month, it will be very worthwhile! I just don't know how long it will take for Karada to be able to regain the image we remember. Speaking of which, Kitson's mood became a little low.
In the hearts of the vast majority of Nohan people, the old capital of Karada has always been their pride. Even today, when the administrative center of the kingdom has been moved, the status of the city that has nurtured the civilization of the Norhan Kingdom for more than 300 years is still different in the hearts of the people. Its relationship with the new capital of Ulrike is like that of St. Petersburg and Moscow in old Russia.
And now Karada is full of devastation, and as a Nohan soldier who was supposed to defend this place, the pain and remorse in their hearts are beyond the comprehension of players like Barrett.
"Don't worry! If it doesn't work in one month, it will take two months, and if it doesn't work in a year, it will be two years Someday Karada will be restored to its original appearance, no! It should be said that it is better than before. Barrett, who has specialized in researching related knowledge, immediately played lyrical, "4oo years ago, we transformed from the Knights to a country with nothing, and we Norhan survived. 2oo years ago, we also survived the war with Lucia, the overlord of the 6th Western University. Suffering has never overwhelmed the backbone of the Nohans, and the fruits of victory after all this are exceptionally sweet! ”
Such rough words really resonated with the aboriginal soldiers at once, although the system did not give a direct hint, but everyone could clearly feel that these aboriginal soldiers were closer to Barrett than at the front line.
The rest is always short, not long after the guard arrangement is completed. Barrett and his party continued on their way. Before that, while the team was in full swing, the parrot asked Barrett, "You wouldn't be learning about the history of this game for the sake of today's situation!" ”
"Why not! If you're planning to earn credits, you should at least be careful if you don't treat it as a job! I didn't expect this to be useful today. But there's always nothing wrong with knowing more about the background in the game. Even if you don't need it, you can use it as a bedtime story! Barrett's answer was his usual preparedness style.
The patrols that followed were not much different from the previous ones. It's so apt to describe Karada. Originally, I couldn't see anything when I was running smoothly step by step. But now that the order has collapsed, there are really all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods.
In the process, Barrett and his party were not only involved in the arrest of no less than 2o humans. At the same time, he also eliminated a violent gang of 5 half-orcs and three gnome thieves.
In particular, the latter had the audacity to go to the aristocratic district to loot jewels, and the girls in the team were worried about what would happen to these fellows after the trial - this is a complete differential treatment! Barrett admits that the gnomes are too foul-looking. However, the fact that women's empathy in some aspects is too widespread is the big problem.
However, in Barrett's eyes, the ultimate fate of these little guys is basically to take the road of amnesty and recruitment. After that, he either joined the army as a scout, or changed owners and continued to do some shady underground work.
Although the ugliness and cancer of a large number of intelligent creatures are constantly staged in front of the eyes of Barrett and others. However, in the process of law enforcement, it is not without seeing the refreshing sweet springs.
On top of the ruins in the civilian eastern district, a sturdy man has already organized his neighbors to start self-rescue work after the disaster. These civilians, who had escaped in the cellar or somewhere, teamed up to defend themselves against the scum of all races who came to take advantage of the fire. At the same time, they take turns clearing the rubble that may still be buried with survivors.
Looking at their bodies of varying heights and straining to bend over, some of them even showed obvious signs of malnutrition. But I don't know why Barrett and his party feel that their backs are so resolute and upright.
On the other hand, a storm is brewing inside the city of Karada. The marble floor was covered with a thick blanket of red, green and blue, and in the center of the blanket the coat of arms of the Norhan Kingdom and the brass ceiling above the head reflected each other, emitting a soft glow in the bright but not dazzling light.
On the desk in front of him were dozens of papers, which recorded a series of problems that Karada City needed to deal with immediately after this demonic disaster.
"More than 12oo houses have collapsed, and more than 4oo have not collapsed due to fires but need to be renovated. There are three streets that have been completely erased from the map. It is not yet possible to count the human losses, but conservative estimates are that no less than 8ooo people died. A city official was standing in the middle of the house, being questioned by the nine governors behind the horseshoe-shaped conference table.
A middle-aged official among the nine people alternated his palms: "Then the situation in the aristocratic district and the commercial district should be clear!" ”
"The loss of the commercial area is enormous. Although the demons had little interest in most of the goods, the fire they ignited destroyed a qiē in the warehouse on the ground. Thankfully, the casualties were not large because of the first retreat. The bureaucrat flipped over a notebook and said, "Noble district, aristocratic district......
"How's the aristocratic quarter? Don't you dare to speak? ”
