Sixty-eight The Perfect Slave
After a night of nightmares that left me restless, the Mad Net Councilor has returned: the Plague Doctor. I couldn't stand the horrible madness of Mokavi, but I was addicted to it, and I just wanted to keep watching.
Early the next morning, when the sun shone on the city and everything was golden and pleasing to the eye, we embarked on the journey back.
The demons are all hiding, not knowing where to hide, but judging by their performance last night, it is now their turn to be afraid of us, not us to be afraid of them.
"They think that we humans are all great magicians and can summon the sun." β
"So what the hell were they fighting last night?" β
Leon: "It's a demon leader who is sending troops against another demon leader, and they're vying for a vacancy in Sangwyn. β
Mill applauded, "It's better that they're so good that they'll never be able to attack us." β
Kim Boli pointed to a red and swollen patch on her skin and said, "I'm allergic to the sun!" Will it give me a rash in the future? I don't think I'm very beautiful now, Your Majesty, what do you say? β
Me: "It's fine now, but maybe it's going to be worse, maybe it's going to get skin cancer....."
Lamia screwed me like a dead fish.
Mandarogo and Elrez were a little confused, and when asked about them, they just said "uh-huh". It is no wonder that they have accomplished such great feats, but they have not been called by the Lord to return to heaven, which no one can bear.
Leon is different, he has an eternal smile on his face, full of energy, sweeping away the haze, but his eyes are unpleasant, like a cat in heat, just want to catch a kind of man (yes, look at men too). I'd rather face the guy with depression and mania in comparison.
Mandarogo finally sighed and said, "That's not bad. β
Elrez asked, "Not bad?" β
Mandarogo: "It seems that the mission God has given us is not complete, we have proven our ability to turn the tide, and now we must prove our patience and guidance." β
Elrez thought for a moment and said, "You mean, we continue to stay in the Black Building?" β
Mandarogo nodded, "Yes, the catastrophe has just passed, and the soil where the demons exist has not disappeared, there are still hidden dangers here, and we still have a lot to do, right?" β
Elrez laughed, "That's right, to be honest, it's far more fun to be with these humans than when I was an angel. β
Mandarogo: "We are God's servants, but we are also human shepherds. We do not aspire to rule over humanity like Sangwin, but we can make peace with humanity and protect humanity through crises. β
I walked away from the crowd and gestured to Mandarogo and Elrez, and as they approached suspiciously, I said to them like a drug dealer who was secretly selling medicine, "Do you want to leave this place and weep with me." β
"You mean to leave London?" β
I began to describe to them the beautiful sight of the weepingβthe pearl of the wasteland rising from the ruins, with the most advanced energy technology, the pious and hard-working people, and of course, the wise and powerful leaders of me and Lamia.
Mandarogo was intrigued and asked, "Are you devout in God?" β
"No, we believe in Cain because we think God has forsaken humanity."
The expressions on these two men made me think they were going to draw their swords at me at any moment.
After a few seconds, we laughed out loud, and Mandarogo said, "I forgot that you are still a fallen angel." β
Elrez shouted, "Go back to weeping, continue your wicked reign, you are a great demon here, but our sin." β
I said, "That's not going to work, I'm going to have to dig some people from you before I leave." "It's not good for me to say this, but I don't want to hide it from them, after all, we're good brothers. This childish friendship made me feel uncomfortable, but there was nothing I could do. Hmph, anyway, it's not bad to have such a strong relationship as an angel as an ally.
Mandarogo shrugged and said, "As long as you can persuade people, I don't care." β
I asked, "Can you poach anyone?" β
Mandarogo: "Elrez and I won't leave anyway, and the humans of London are our duty." β
This sentence is my Shang Fang sword, see me use my three-inch tongue to abduct Ran Na, so sure there will be a tide of followers.
Tsunami shouted, "Look there! Mankind! β
In the shadow of a building, someone is moving. They hid behind the pillars, under the walls, stuck their heads out, and watched curiously at the rare weather. It is evident that they have little affection for the sun, and it is no wonder that their bodies have adapted to the darkness for a long time, and it is not easy to accept the light.
Rana said, "We should save them, or at night they will be taken captive by the devil." If more and more humans are forced to believe in demons, one day there will be another enemy as powerful as Sangwen. β
Kim Boli waved at them and said, "Hey, do you understand me?" β
They tried to escape, but Leon ran a few steps to stop them, Leon was not tall, he looked like a high school student who had not yet fully grown, but the men instinctively flinched. They were kept in captivity by demons, and the instinct for obedience was etched into their genes through countless abuses.
Leon gestured and said, "Do you understand, ours, language?" β
An old man said in a trembling voice, "Li.... Lyons? β
Leon's eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, and he shouted, "Camelot? You're Camelot! He hugged the old man at once, very hard, very tightly, and the old man trembled, hugged Leon and cried.
I asked, "Who is Camelot?" β
"I heard that twenty years ago, he was a promising apprentice of Lyon and a senior brother of Akemir, and he disappeared during a scavenging process, and we thought he had been killed by a demon," Mill said. β
Worse, he is worse than dead in the past twenty years.
Kim Poli said: "Then he is only in his thirties, how can he look like he is eighty?" β
I said, "He was probably forced to become a programmer." β
No one understood it, not even myself.
But at the heart of comedy is tragedy.
"I was caught by demons, and they beat me, and cut my flesh to eat," Camelot cried, "and I was terrified every day, and I wondered if I would be alive tomorrow." β
Some women approached him, unclothed, ugly and with children around them.
Lamia whispered to me, "These are his wives and children. β
"That's right, the Red Flame Demon intends to breed Spell Hunters, because the soul of a Spell Hunter can greatly increase their faith. So, if Camelot is alive and better than everyone else, he is like a good stallion. β
Leon asked aloud, "Are there any other missing Hunters?" β
Camelot said: "Many have been... He's dead. Jenna, Kashan, Demiekaku, and later Hayabusa, Ritsu..."
It turns out that there are so many scavengers captured, maybe the Red Flame Demons have given a death order not to kill the hunters.
Leon shouted, "Dead? How.... Where are their bodies? β
I sighed, "Leon, why are you here again?" β
He didn't care about ordinary people, but about the hunters.
Leon said, "To live to see a man, to die to see a corpse!" β
Camelot trusted Leon and said, "Please come with me." β
He led us into an abandoned mall, where Kimberly, Ranna, Mir and Lamia were fascinated by the cosmetics counter. Kim Porly shouted, "Sunscreen! Is this the legendary sunscreen? I want to, I'm going to move all back! β
"Although it may have expired, I have heard that there are some premium products that have a shelf life of hundreds of years and should still work," Lamia said. β
Rana said, "Find some food to take with you." β
Mir pointed to some of his coats and said, "These are not bad, they are a little dirty, we can take them back and wash them." β
They acted as if they had come to visit the mall, and in that case, a reasonable customer like me naturally could not turn a deaf ear, and sighed when he heard this: "These enslaved humans live in the heat of the water, but what about these women? But I only care about cosmetics and delicious food, it's really... The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river, alas, where is the hope of the family and the country? When will the world be peaceful? β
Lamia glared and asked, "What did you say?" β
I said aloud, "Now that the world is at peace, there is nothing wrong with having fun in a timely manner." β
Lamia snapped her fingers and smiled, "Understood." β
The eldest husband can bend and stretch, I should be a role model for this, what is the point of being slapped in the face when I speak?
We entered the third floor of the mall, where there was a hall of unknown purpose, and the smell of the hall was so foul that at least a thousand people had gathered that they were almost all frightened and hid in the corner.
Ignoring the mortals, Leon said to Camelot, "Where are the corpses of the Wizards?" Take me there! β
I stared at mortals.
"Their souls have deteriorated, their brains are badly damaged, even domesticated hounds are no more well-behaved than them, they are so fragile that it hurts," the plague doctor said in my head. β
I had a terrible thought.
We need slaves, slaves who can endure hardships.
These people are the most suitable candidates.
But how do I get them back? I can't move a thousand people at once, but I can do it a hundred times.... As long as I insist, I can always take them away.
I'm just crazy, what the hell is this idea? What will the crying children think? These people have suffered so much, and I still want to enslave them, what difference is this with Sangwin?
But I am salvation, not slavery, and crying is heaven compared to here, and even compared to the black buildings.
I can get them to mine, to plant, to build, they will have something to eat, they will live well, they can be cured when they get sick, they can get something that they have never had before, they belong to human dignity.
That's enough, it's enough for them.
I am the savior.
Camelot interrupted my thoughts, and he took Leon to dig up some bones, and said, "The demons... It is also superstitious that keeping the bones allows us to give birth to more hunters. β
Leon immediately said: "They are the heroes of the Black Buildings, our forerunners and pavers, we will find some wooden boxes and transport them back." β
