Chapter 8: Fight, Mr. Captain
The riots and fighting did not end quickly, but they did not drag on for long. It all happened in the morning when it was going to be close to noon, and when it was all over, it was exactly noon.
Olga found a place to sit down, and wiped his sword with a piece of cloth he had grabbed. There is too much blood on the sword, and if you don't clean it properly, the blade will become dull.
Julius sat cross-legged, panting slightly. Compared to Olga's sword, his crosssword didn't have much blood on it, but at least it proved that he did take part in the battle, and that he had achieved results - if his sword was still clean after a battle, it meant that he had done nothing, just a useless burden.
Patin walked over and threw a water bag to Olga. When Olga received it, she nodded to Patin, pouring water on her sword. The blood was diluted, and it flowed down from the top of the sword, falling to the ground, mixing with the dirt and turning into bloody mud. There was a foul smell of blood, but Olga didn't care.
In front of them, there were corpses that had fallen to the ground. Some of them were still breathing and let out a slight moan, but they hadn't been out of breath for long. Whether it was Olga or Pattin, or even Julius, they had no intention of showing mercy to save an enemy who had just brandished a weapon against him. Of course, if someone surrenders or flees, they will not be killed, and it will take a lot of effort to swing the sword at someone who has lost the will to fight.
There were not many people who surrendered and fled, and when most of them had fallen, the small number of them fell to their knees and begged for mercy, or they ran away: some in the direction of the forest, some on the other side of the bay.
"A lot of people died. Patin looked at the corpse in the place. Those who had surrendered went down on his orders to carry the bodies and pile them up in the same place. It's fine now, but after a long time, the corpses in this place will probably emit a foul smell. Those who had lost the will to fight were working with their heads bowed, and some were still touching the corpses of their comrades, pulling out valuable things and stuffing them into their pockets. Padding didn't stop all this.
"This place is finished. Olga said to Pattin. He looked to the other side of the settlement.
The corpses piled together, the faces of the dead turned dim yellow in the light of a fire, and they didn't look so terrible.
While the three and dozens of people were fighting on Olga's side, a fire broke out at the end of the settlement, and by the time the crowd besieging Olga had broken down, the fire had already burned to this side. These haphazard wooden buildings were easily set ablaze and turned into fuel for the fire. If a ship passes by in the area, you will probably be able to see this magnificent flame.
It looked like a fiery dragon perched on a narrow stretch of land, contrasting with the bay on the side.
The murderer who caused the fire came to Julius and the others at this time. Lulunaka drove a man who had been smoked black all over. The man was kicked by Lulunaka, staggered to the ground, and fell to his knees like a dog.
This guy with black all over is Roque. Although he was only a warrior of the Black Iron Class, Roque was still a few points better than his hapless men. Rough-skinned and thick-skinned, he was burned by the flames of the fiery red crystal on Lulunaka's cane, but it didn't immediately turn into a foul-smelling, charred "barbecue". Perhaps, it also has something to do with the magic props he hides in his arms - as a businessman who licks blood with a knife head, if Roque didn't have a few life-saving things on him, then he wouldn't have survived for so long. As for whether Lulunaka's fire-breathing cane worked...... At least he survived, only getting darker.
Roque was driven by Lulunaka, Roque was a sheep and she was a shepherd. Lulunaka, the shepherd, was followed by three wolfdogs, three barking beasts who were barking at their former masters, and they were extremely aggressive, but the rope was caught by Lulunaka's hands, so that they did not pounce immediately.
Lulunaka looked around, "What a miserable thing, Mr. Captain, the place you've worked so hard for so long has become a bonfire that can burn all day. That's unfortunate. Her tone was lively and cheerful, exactly the same as when she was in the dog walk. Only his identity and status had changed: Roque was no longer the man on top, now a prisoner, and his men no longer stared at Lulunaka, for they were almost all dead, and only a few who had been left to work survived the disaster.
Roque laughed, then coughed a few times, he felt his throat dry uncomfortably, and the crimson flames that filled his vision dealt him a big blow. "yes, I haven't had a lot of luck lately...... Forget if your eyes aren't good enough, you also met a mage like a madman. Who the hell are you, I'm pretty sure I haven't provoked any big people lately that would have caused me to kill people. Roque probably felt that he was dead, and he had no idea of begging for mercy, and he had no intention of showing weakness.
Julius looked at Lulunaka with confusion on his face, "I thought you were a witch, but you always emphasized that you were an alchemist, and now others say you're a mage?" Julius felt a little confused, who the hell was Lulunaka, don't talk about Roque, now even he, who has lived with him for a while, wants to ask this.
Lulunaka spread her hands and looked innocent, "Just kidding, I didn't think Mr. Captain really believed it." There's a real witch here, but I've burned her to ashes, and you won't get a chance to see what a witch looks like, so I'll talk about it next time. ”
After speaking to Julius, Lulunaka walked over to Roque. As they got closer to Roque, the three wolfhounds roared harder, but they didn't pounce on Roque and bite him. "I don't like disobedient dogs, that's enough for Ward. Luluna Cara tugged at the rope and quieted the dog a little, just crouching to the side and staring at Roque, saliva dripping from her mouth.
Although it was his own dog, and in order to raise his fierceness, he had always fed them with living people, but when these beasts who were similar to beasts showed their fangs at him, Roque was scared after all. And the three dogs were as furious about him as they were with strangers—or food—to his original owner, which made Roque nervous about Lulunaka's presence.
"Mr. Captain, do you want to live?" Lulunaka crouched down beside Roque, her chin in her hands, and looked at Roque with a grin. No one doesn't want to live, and if Roque didn't have the desire and will to survive, he wouldn't be alive until now.
Lulunaka didn't give him a chance to answer, and continued, "But I'm not asking for your permission...... Whether you resign yourself to your fate or don't want to die, play a game with me first. She turned to Julius, "You come with me, I should teach you the next thing." With that, Lulunaka stood up and kicked Roque in the ass, causing him to stand up and driving him towards the dog walk.
Julius stood up with a puzzled look on her face and followed Lulunaka.
It didn't take long for Julius and Roque to stand in the dog walk. The gate to the forest was still intact, it had been opened when Roque's men had fled, and now it had been closed by Lulunaka. As for the second door, it was too much to block because it had been blown to pieces, so she tied the dog to the vicinity. The three wolfhounds, which were constantly growling, were now equivalent to a door, blocking the entry and exit of the others, including Julius.
As for Lulunaka, she stood on the platform above, looking down below, and she was followed by Olga, whose expression was more ugly now. Patin was still disposing of the corpses, and with him, those who surrendered did not dare to have any bad thoughts.
"I didn't think we'd be in a different position, Mr. Captain!" Luluna shouted at Roque from above, "I hope you're in the same mood as I was at this time, it's enough to keep smiling and light-hearted, and don't have a bitter face like you do now—oh, your face is dark, and even if you have an expression, I can't see it." ”
"Is it fun to play with me, miss?" Roque looked up at Lulunaka, "If you want to kill me, kill ...... You killed all my men and burned my place to ashes, and I don't think you have the idea of mercy in your head. ”
"Of course not. Lulunaka laughed, "Did you ever have the slightest thought in your head when you stood here? So why should I be merciful?"
Lulunaka appears to have pronounced Roque's death sentence. But when something gets to Lulunaka, it doesn't end so easily.
"But it's not like you don't have hope of living. Lulunaka said. She picked up a sword and a small axe that had fallen on the side, and threw it down, throwing it at Roque's feet, "Standing here, I can understand your thoughts about watching the play." Condescending to look at other people's painful ways to amuse yourself is indeed an addictive thing. So, pick up your weapon, and if you can kill the boy standing in the same place as you, I'll let you go. ”
