18. Merit is immeasurable

The news spreads and the society of the amusement park shelter falls apart.

The people of this dungeon began to panic and began to cry, some locked themselves in the door, and others took up arms to take revenge. People with blue armbands shouted in the streets, denouncing the president for his incompetence and framing the righteous for leading to the current situation. The men with the red armbands tried to organize a revolt again, but received little response. I heard the president tell the people to calm down on the radio, but all they got was a shout-out from everyone.

I hugged the little girl, and she didn't dare to look at me, maybe she was completely stupid and closed off her inner world. I'm sorry, but I'm not shaken, I need to support myself with the fanaticism of the Sun King, paralyze myself.

I need to numb myself.

But I still said, "I'm sorry." ”

I asked, "Where is your home?" ”

She didn't say anything, I tried to make her brave with the telepathic blade, but she stopped me, she was very strong, after all, she was a daughter of Nefarem. Whether she is Nefarem or not still needs to be tested, but she is not ordinary.

I told Soles, "Come in, be careful, there may be resistance." ”

She said: "The enemy has surrendered? ”

I said, "It's almost time not to surrender, you come in to maintain order." ”

Standing on a high place, I saw a group of people with red armbands running menacingly from the street, shouting: "Let Bu Nuo pay for his blood debt!" ”

Buno? Didn't he die fighting for this refuge?

One of them also called: "He is irresponsible, negligent in exercising, and his corpse is a vegetarian meal, and he has buried the future of all of us in vain!" "He must be made to pay!" "Go and catch his wife and children and send them to hell for reunion!"

The girl shuddered and cried out in a low voice, "Don't! ”

They came to the door of a house, slammed it twice, smashed it, and then dragged a woman and a boy out and forced them to kneel, and the woman hugged the boy and cried, and these people were so angry that they kicked her fiercely, and the woman protected her son. The leader pointed a gun at the woman's head and said sharply, "I'm doing a good deed!" ”

Once a hero can't become a hero, he will be treated as a sinner, and human beings can turn their faces faster than they can turn a book.

I fell between them, and with a single sword electrocuted them all, the woman shouted in a trembling voice, "You... Who is it? Ah, Wally, how is she in your hands? ”

I gave the girl back to her and said, "She's fine, she'll be fine soon." ”

I went out into the street and shouted, "I am Longinus, the one who slew Unge and Buno!" Anyone who is within my sight will be prostrate on the ground, and if I walk around any more, I will kill him!" ”

A guy in civilian clothes poked his head out of the house, aimed a gun at me from a distance, and I slashed him with a sword, then lifted him up with a magnetic glove and said, "This is the end!" ”

They didn't dare to move.

"Their barracks are only 500 meters from here, and their weapons depot is there. ”

Soles and my apprentices felt that I had found a secluded hut for the apprentices to stay and three Rangers to guard them, and ordered Soles to take the rest of the group to destroy the remnants of the enemy.

Soles listened to the weeping of the whole world and sighed, "Human feelings are really rich. ”

I said, "It sounds like you're very insightful." ”

Solace nodded, "I just feel like they've given up and have no fighting spirit. ”

I said, "Let's go and take the barracks." ”

The barracks was a cave barricade barricaded by a gate, and the men with the blue armbandsβ€”all civiliansβ€”were already storming the barracks, and the few remaining soldiers were overwhelmed and quickly subdued by the angry people, who were going to kill them, and Solace scattered the people, and people immediately remembered who we were.

The leader among them shouted, "You are the outsider? It was you who destroyed the nuclear-powered armor? ”

I said, "Yes and what?" ”

The leader bowed to me and said, "You're right! You saved us from these scoundrels and hypocrites! We are willing to surrender to you! ”

His tone was extremely respectful and natural, as if there was nothing wrong with it, and it didn't hurt his self-esteem. This made me despised, disgusted to me, a coward who escaped from the battle, far less than Unger and Buno who fought to the end.

Then I realized that he was not a coward, that he had no fear, that his voice did not tremble, that he had done so deliberately. Is he a false surrender?

No, judging by the news, of course he thinks I'm a brutal murderer, because those who stand in my way are dead. But I need a soft-boned agent as a mouthpiece, as a steward, to work for me. So, he stepped forward and risked his life to beg me for mercy, thinking that this might protect the civilian population from liquidation.

In times of crisis, we need the courage to die and the wisdom to be in the face of chaos.

Isn't that the kind of person I've been waiting for?

I asked, "What's your name?" ”

He said, "My name, my name is Klauz." ”

"Kneel and swear allegiance to me, and if you can, I will give you full authority to dispose of all the captives underground."

Clauz secretly gritted his teeth, fell to his knees without hesitation, and shouted, "I am willing to surrender to you, my lord." I put a finger on his forehead and he screamed in pain and fell.

It was the fear imprint of a black nightmare, but it seemed like an ordinary burn, and he wouldn't know that I had carved the fear into his heart, thinking that it was just my way of humiliating him.

"Very well, my name is Longinus, and I am the Duke of the Black Coffin, the master of the Cry."

He asked, "Crying?" My lord, where is that? ”

I said, "It's the city you're all going to be." ”

After about half a day, the dispute subsided, and I occupied the barracks, arrested the president, confiscated all the weapons, released all the prisoners, and the whole "country" had a population of about fifteen hundred people, and there was a small amount of uncontaminated oil, which was only enough for a few motorcycles. The electricity of the entire country is generated by geothermal engines.

Clauz told me that the country was called "Ouldeglauri", which means the glory of the past, but because it was too lip-promising, they called themselves amusement parks.

With the exception of Klauz and a few, I had all the men handcuffed, roped when they were not handcuffed, and those who were unrestrained were forced to wear headphones that could monitor their emotions through their physical signs.

When I went to see the president, he had already been beaten, and if we hadn't found him in time, he would have lost his life, but even so, when he met me, he still held his head high.

His first words were: "Please don't slaughter the people, the people are innocent." ”

I said, "I never had such a thought from beginning to end, and I have said countless times that I want to make peace with you, and you know that." ”

The president held back his anger and reluctantly smiled: "Yes, you are a great conqueror, but you are afraid that you will be disappointed, our country does not have much food left, and the rising groundwater has caused the crops we grow to die." ”

I said, "I don't need your food, and it's good to hear you say that I seem to be your savior here." ”

PRESIDENT: "No, savior .... We would have been able to solve these problems! Our armed forces are strong, this homeland is safe, and as long as there is security, we will continue. ”

Klauz said angrily: "You people from the people are all scum who talk about empty talk and mislead the country!" And the means are cruel, torture and prison repression against our voices! ”

The president said: "It is you who have violated the law and disorder and provoked the incident, you are a group of terrorists!" ”

Klauz hated: "If it weren't for Buno's cowardice, our seizure of power would have succeeded!" Nor will it...", knowing that he had lost his words, he changed his words, "It is thanks to Lord Longinus who has come to put an end to your evil rule. ”

I smiled and said, "Look, you are already killing each other, I see that your two factions are equal in number, if you really fight, I am afraid that at least half of them will be wiped out." ”

I am meritorious, saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, although I killed a soldier, but the soldier's vocation is.... Sent to the battlefield by politicians to die.

Well done, fishbone, you stopped the war with war, you brought peace with war, and killed to stop killing, how wise you are, and you have added another glorious stroke to your merit book.

Why do I feel so weak-hearted?

I said to the president, "I want you to broadcast and tell the people that they are safe." ”

"Do you want them to 'think they're safe,' or 'really safe,'" the president said. ”

"You have no other way but to believe in my promise."

And the president said, "Okay, I'll do it." ”

"Then, you tell them that this place is no longer safe, that it could collapse at any time, that they have run out of food, and that they must move with me to the rest of the cities."

The president bowed his head and said, "They won't believe it." ”

I said, "At least the food half is true, and it's you who have been hiding the truth." ”

Klauz: "Our and Pai's demands are to increase our efforts to open up new territories further south, to find new sources of food, and possibly the rest of the survivors... Or an ally like Wailing. However, the Democrats did not allow us to leave, they confiscated our weapons, locked up our motorcycles, and they were stubborn about a policy that was doomed to despair, even at the cost of killing their own people! It's incorrigible! ”

"Amusement parks are good places, and with our defense nets, we can go out into the ground and experiment with crops, and we can finally find a way to feed everybody," the president said. ”

I frowned and said, "Your original crop won't be mushrooms." ”

The president said, "yes, what's wrong?" ”

β€œ... Nothing, can you show me what that mushroom looks like? ”

"They're all dead," the president said. ”

I asked, "Have you ever heard some gibble singing.... Or spells or something? Or some kobold demons underground? ”

Klauz shook his head vigorously and said, "No, my lord, I have never heard of it at least. ”

I really don't want to spend energy dealing with the possible Sun King below, if there was a problem, this place would have been exposed a long time ago.

I still had them inventory all the statue-like items in their luggage, and scanned them all with the Ember Crystal Detector invented by Mai Zong, and the results were promising.

With that done, on the morning of the third day of my conquest of the amusement park, I had the Rangers watch over fifteen hundred people and set out on a journey home.
