Chapter 855 The Choice of the Bandit
Seeing Cheese's back without any hesitation at all, Arrow was now a little nervous.
In fact...... Now that the situation has become like this, it cannot be said that it is completely out of Airo's medical treatment.
More than 1,000 bandits!
With such a large number of bandits, then there will definitely be families, old and young. It is not too much to say that this is a bandit group that has formed a small army.
Therefore, in the process of exterminating the bandits, you will definitely encounter those old and weak women and children, and how to deal with them is obviously the most important part of this extermination activity.
It's just that Arrow has miscalculated the state of mind of his members.
Especially Cheese, I usually look at this guy's ignorance of human affairs, but I never thought that after seeing the tragic situation of the mother and son being burned to death, he would be the first to rush out?
Perhaps, his feelings for the blue veins also made him transfer this empathy to humans...... It seems that the characteristic of the night clan that attaches too much importance to feelings may not be an advantage, but it may even be a disadvantage.
"Brother President, we're about to cross the forest!"
Coco shouted from behind, and it didn't take long for everyone to walk through the forest and come to a cliff.
And before this cliff, there is a huge deep pit! Around the crater, there are many stairs that descend to the bottom.
Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, I saw that it was brightly lit, and a large number of adventurers were gathering in the wide pit below. It's just a little strange that these adventurers seem to be divided into two factions now, one with more people and the other with fewer people, as if they are facing each other.
"Let's go down and have a look."
Arrow spoke, and immediately walked down the tunnel.
Halfway through, you can already hear the arguments below, which are very harsh.
"Get out of the way! Hear no! ”
"Want to come? I'm afraid you won't make it! ”
"If you have something to say, you have something to say! Don't be like that, everybody's here to compete. ”
"Put your weapons down! Guilds attacking each other is a violation! ”
The arguments were incessant, and sometimes even too chaotic, for Arrow to be able to hear what the people below were saying.
He stopped on a staircase more than one person high, and looked at the two groups of people who were arguing and shouting, a little puzzled. But soon, he saw that behind the group of adventurers who were smaller, there seemed to be people.
It was a group of unarmed and unequipped, women and children hugging each other and shivering, young men dressed as peasants with simple pitchforks or axes in their hands.
A little look at it, the number of these peasants is as high as seven or eight hundred! The number of these peasants alone is probably far greater than the number of adventurers here combined!
But even so, the peasants were still frightened and trembling, and did not dare to make any response to the present situation, but simply pinned all their hopes on the adventurers who stood in their way.
"Excuse me, what's going on now?"
Arrow tapped lightly on another adventurer who was also standing on the stairs watching the confrontation and asked.
And when the adventurer saw that it was the person in the mermaid's song, he snorted, pointed to the small group of adventurers over there and said, "God knows what these guys have in their brains, and they even said halfway that they can't exterminate these bandits, and even want us all to leave?" Just if you don't complete the task, you will be eliminated when the time comes! These guys are really crazy! ”
Arrow nodded slightly, thanked the adventurer, and then looked back at the cheese behind him.
Cheese also nodded lightly and said, "These bandits have all gathered together, but in the process of exterminating them, some adventurers seem to have awakened their consciences and feel that they can't do this, so they stand next to these bandits." And here are the guild teams that firmly hope to continue to exterminate the bandits. President Arrow, if it were you, which side would you be on? ”
Arrow was slightly stunned, and now, he finally understood what the so-called choice meant.
One by one, his gaze swept over the members of his guild, Brad, Coco, Cream, Margaux, and even Parfay, who was hiding in Brad's pocket, now looked at him with an expectant look.
Arrow thought for a moment, and finally, his eyes fell on Duck next to him.
"Great!"
Duck looked at the adventurers who were protecting the bandits, and soon found the members of the Heavenly Hand in the midst of it.
He turned back to Arrow and said, "My guild still stands for justice. President Arrow, I now stand firmly beside the so-called bandits, and even if there are thieves among them, the old and weak, women and children should be excluded. So, what did you decide? ”
Looking at Dark's eyes now full of excitement, Arrow knew that if he really stood on the opposite side of this person, then he would probably immediately turn against the mermaid song. At that time, even friends won't have to do it.
But......
Thinking about the number of ears in his pocket, Arrow knew that now was not the time to stand in line.
"President Dark, you're standing next to your guild, so what are you going to do now? Do you just rush down and appear in front of everyone? You should know that regardless of whether those people are bandits or ordinary villagers, their ears are now related to whether these adventurers can successfully advance or not. If you're on the opposite side of them, are you going to kill all the guilds here and win the championship? ”
Darker was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting such a result, and quickly shook his head: "No! I don't have that idea......"
Arrow exhaled and said slowly, "So, can we take a look at it first?" If there is another solution, let's think about it. ”
With Dark's current identity, it is indeed inconvenient for him to jump out and stand beside his guild members now. Since he saw that his guild was now in front of those old and weak women and children, he was also relieved and didn't mind continuing to watch here.
At this time, as the most powerful guild Heavenly Hand in the protector side, the fat man he had seen last night also stood up. He raised his hands and said with a smile on his face, "Everyone! Everyone, don't be impatient. Please calm down now. I know that all of you here want to get this done as quickly as possible. However, everything must be done in an environment and atmosphere. ”
He waved his hand at the cowering children behind him, and said with a smile: "Not all of them are bad people here, look at these children, they can't be some kind of bandits, right?" Anyway, we're all adventurers, and adventurers can't do such a thing as slaughtering children, right? ”
The fat man's words seemed to reassure Dark, and Arrow saw the smile on that pretty face, which almost made Arrow think that he meant something special about the fat man.
In the face of the Hand of Heaven's obstruction, the adventurers of the attacker's camp were very anxious. One of them jumped out directly, pointed at the fat man's nose and shouted, "Don't think that you are here with your back to the light of heaven saying these high-sounding words!" Do you really think we don't know? Your Heavenly Hand and the Great Guilds behind you have already collected enough resources for the mission, and all you want is to keep us stuck and then prevent us from obtaining the materials needed for the mission! Besides, you are harboring those bandits? Good! Even if we don't kill the children, you will hand over the adult bandits! ”
Such words naturally attracted cheers from the attackers' camp behind.
After all, there are already guilds that have completed their mission and returned, and if they continue to delay like this, God knows what will happen in the end.
What's more, everyone must have thought that the Hand of Heaven had already killed enough. Look at the heavy bags hanging from their belts, look at the blood oozing out of the bags, and run out to stop others from completing the task after the mission items have been collected. Who to fool!
"Do you guys really want to do it?"
In addition to the Hand of Heaven, the leader of the Blue Distant Guild is now standing in front of the bandits.
The very handsome young man stroked his hair a little, and his slender figure and elegant demeanor showed that he was fully educated. At the same time, it is also with the slightest hint of intimidation that does not allow refutation.
"First of all, I would like to warn you, in order to ensure that the guild will not be eliminated, so we guilds will try our best to tolerate it. However, if someone forces us to do it, then you will be greeted by a bloody storm. Do you do a good job...... Are you going to get your hands on us? ”
As Jewel Blue's words fell, the Blue Distant Guild members behind him were all lined up, putting on a posture of preparing for battle.
In addition to the blue distance, the other guilds that were also on the side of the protector also took a step forward, showing great determination.
In this way, it seems that the hand of heaven is a little less active. The fat man at the head saw that the good words were all spoken in the blue distance, and he couldn't just stand still, so he also nodded and said, "If you want to fight...... I believe everyone here must be ready to die, right? After all, if we break the law because we do it, then there is nothing to stop us after the violation. ”
The number of people on the attacker's side is indeed large, but even if there are more people, at best, they are small guilds that are not very strong in combat power.
