Chapter 127: What a Leader Should Do (2-in-1 Chapter)

A voice rang out from the dimly lit cell, and a large number of women were huddled together like frightened birds. The light came in as the cell door opened, and into it was a blue-skinned dwarf about a meter tall.

When the women saw that it was him, they were relieved. But even if he relaxed a little, his eyes were still full of despair.

Seeing them like this, MiG also sighed helplessly, with a look of sympathy on his face. But there is no way to do this, as always, it pushes the food in front of the women, and then says it in blunt human language.

"Eat, that's the only thing I can do for you."

"What can you do if you eat it, it's not the same that you greenskins will be devastated, it's better to starve to death." In the crowd, a woman who was already very thin from hunger said with hatred in her eyes.

There are dozens of human women here, and MiG is the only one who has some impression of her, because she has been very stubborn since she was naturally taken captive here, and in recent days she has begun to stop eating or drinking. Several times she fainted from hunger, but the green-skinned ghost forced her to wake up and stuff food into her mouth.

After all, they also know that if these women are not well raised, not to mention that they will not be able to give birth to a sufficient number of children, and even the conception itself will be difficult.

However, even so, she still did not eat or drink, and under her influence, many people have chosen to do so.

"You demons, one day, humanity will awaken and destroy you."

MiG wanted to say that he wasn't a demon, but he knew that even if he did, it would be in vain.

"In seven days, there will be a ceremony, you ...... Do it yourself. Unable to bear to say this, MiG struggled not to let himself see their expressions, and turned and walked out.

Its daily work, in addition to producing weapons and equipment for the tribe, was to bring food to the women, and to tell them that in a few days there would be a formal ceremony, the so-called ceremony, the ceremony for them to officially conceive the children of the greenskins.

Every time they heard this, their despair built even more. MiG also knew that this was very cruel, and that it was not its job to tell the time, it was entirely its decision to do so.

The reason why MiG wanted to do such a cruel thing was actually to hope that they would recognize the reality and stop going on a hunger strike.

Rituals don't wait, and once they can't conceive because they can't keep up with their physical condition, and let the greenskins judge that they are not useful, then their lives will be over.

If you are pregnant, you can live for half a year, but if you don't get pregnant, you will directly become a tool for the green-skinned ghost to vent, and be ravaged to death. At least in MiG's opinion, it is already obvious how to choose.

MiG walked in a low mood, and every now and then some greenskins spat at him, or kicked him from behind, and then let out a mocking smile.

The tribe it belongs to is one of the largest tribes among all the greenskinned ghost tribes, so they don't live in a relatively hidden place like those small tribes, but occupy a relatively tall stone mountain and dig a cave to live.

Don't look at MiG, it seems to be mentally mature, but in fact, it has only been born for less than two years, and in the same batch as it, there are nearly 100 blue-skinned ghosts in addition to it.

After they are born, they have a very low status in the tribe because they are smaller than normal greenskins and have little strength.

Fortunately, they have some strange abilities, so that they are not at least not life-threatening because of the color of their skin.

Of course, even so, their status is still very low, and they are only worthy of hard labor for the greenskins. To be honest, in terms of function, the treatment of the blue-skinned ghosts is no different from those human women.

"You're back, have they eaten?"

MiG returned to the place where the blue-skinned ghosts were working, and one of his companions saw him return and asked him about the women.

"Well, it still doesn't work."

After telling what had just happened, the blue-skinned ghosts present all sighed helplessly. Without exception, they all looked regretful.

The companion stepped forward and patted MiG on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, this matter is not something we can control, come and work, we have to complete more than a hundred sets of equipment today, otherwise we will be unlucky." ”

MiG nodded and sat down at an empty table. Get rid of the distractions in your head. Then he focused his attention, stretched his hands forward slightly, and then a magical scene happened, only to see a cloud of iron-blue liquid spread between his hands at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Then these bodily fluids are consciously integrated and deformed, and finally form a short knife suitable for the greenskin, and when the short knife is formed, it falls off from MiG's hand, and at this time, it has changed from liquid to solid, becoming a real iron knife.

This is their blue-skinned ghost's ability, those liquids seem magical, but they are actually their sweat, and these sweats can be turned into iron tools at will, as for why they have such an inexplicable ability, they themselves do not know.

Of course, they can't be made forever, and every time something is made, they have to rest and replenish, just like the MiG is doing now. There are only two things they have to replenish, and that is water and earth.

After a short rest, MiG returned to his empty seat and began to work. It's just that they wouldn't have thought that everything that happened here would be seen by Mo Mo, who had already touched the vicinity.

Because Scarlet Moon is also with her, through her ability, everyone can see and hear the content of the information Momo has learned in real time.

"These are the blueskins? Sure enough, it's much smaller than the greenskin. ”

Although the image seen through Scarlet Moon's ability is black and white, it does not prevent Owen from recognizing the difference between the blue-skinned and the green-skinned.

"After listening to their conversation, it seems that those girls will perform the ritual in seven days, but didn't you say before that you saw that some tribes' women have been spoiled by green-skinned ghosts?"

Faced with Crimson's question, Mo Mo replied: "Indeed, this also reminds me that when I saw it before, I didn't find any shadow of the Divine Flower Seed, maybe those are just simple green-skinned ghosts committing evil, not real rituals. ”

Hearing this, Nika on the side also suddenly realized: "I understand, it must be seven days before the seed of that divine flower will usher in its expiration date." ”

Vader was still young, so he thought more simply: "Brother Owen, why don't we save them, once seven days pass, they will definitely ......"

Baozhu on the side shook his head and said: "But there are so many of them, we can't save them, anyway, in our original judgment, these people are violated by green-skinned ghosts, since we have to save them sooner or later, then we are not in a hurry, besides, we still have the task of Her Royal Highness the princess to complete." ”

"I agree with Baozhu's words, but the current situation is different, and now this situation is equivalent to watching them face such an end, and besides, you have just heard that some of these girls may be killed directly due to physical reasons, which is equivalent to seeing death for us."

With that, Nika looked at Owen, and everyone turned their attention to him. After all, he is the leader of this mission, and how to do it still has to be up to him.

What to do, Owen is actually struggling in his heart. From his standpoint, the answer is simple, naturally everything is centered on Shelley's mission.

But he knew very well that if Shelley was here in person, she would definitely choose to save those girls.

He believed that no matter how difficult it was, Shelley would be able to think of a way to save them. But the problem is that she is not Shelley, and without her intelligence, she can't figure out that way. Bunny Fly

For a while, a sense of self-confidence arose again, and perhaps he was not suitable to be the captain at all.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered some episodes that had happened in the tavern that day......

"Little brother, you have drunk several glasses of wine, but you haven't said a word, presumably this wine is to dispel your sorrows."

Owen didn't know how many glasses of wine he took from his boss, and after listening to his words, he smiled bitterly: "It's not worrying, it's just that I've been a little unconfident recently." ”

The boss said with interest: "If it's not a secret, say it to make yourself easier, that's what we are here for, and no one will take it seriously." ”

Who knew that Na'er on the side ruthlessly debunked: "Don't listen to my father's nonsense, he is just worried that if you continue to drink like this, you will be poor in drinking." That's why I want you to talk more and drink less. ”

"You stinky girl! Still not my daughter! The boss immediately blew his beard and glared.

Na'er stuck out her tongue at him: "Hmph, it's not biological anyway." ”

"Not biological?" Owen looked at the two of them, not to mention, how could such a bad old man give birth to such a lovely girl.

"Hey, little brother, everything you think is written on your face. Beware of me doubling your money. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Owen smiled awkwardly.

"Hee-hee, it's okay. Although I was adopted by my father, our relationship is no different from that of a normal father and daughter, no matter what others think, this man who is not very good-looking is always my father. ”

"......" the corner of the boss's eyes twitched, "Should I be happy?" ”

Although he was not in a good mood, Owen was amused by the father and daughter.

"You're finally laughing, if you want to be sad again, my guests here will have to be left cold by you."

Owen was stunned for a moment, and said with a relaxed face: "Thank you." ”

The boss shrugged his shoulders: "Although I don't know why you are not confident, but little brother, you have to think about it, it is not easy for an existence like you to have today's life, people, you can't be too greedy." ”

"But the problem is that everything I have today is given by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and my lack of confidence comes from the fact that my help to her seems to be getting smaller and smaller."

Nell looked surprised, very confused why Owen thought of herself like this.

"How can it be small? I obviously heard from Uncle Sixth that if you didn't have it, you wouldn't be able to do that or something. Besides, although we had a negative opinion of you before, most of us have revisited you under the guidance of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and in my case, I even envy you for having such magical powers. ”

Looking at her sincere expression, Owen said sincerely: "Thank you, it's the first time that an ordinary person has said such a thing to me." ”

At this moment, a cry rang out in the tavern: "Sister! Add wine here! ”

"It's coming~~" Na'er replied, "I'll go and get busy first, you can talk to my father." ”

Looking at Na'er's figure running away, Owen sighed: "Boss, you are so lucky." ”

The boss didn't reply to him, but suddenly said with a blank face.

"Just because you're a leader of a group doesn't mean you have to do what the people below you can do. There is no need to have a sense of self-denial because the people below shine brighter than themselves at a certain point. ”

"Huh?" Owen didn't understand why he had changed so much suddenly, and he didn't understand why he was distressed when he didn't say it clearly.

At this time, the boss suddenly reached out and pointed on Owen's chest, and he didn't know if it was because he was drinking too much, he didn't even react to when the boss completed this action.

"Remember, what you need to do is know everything about your subordinates, not why you're not doing as well as everyone else. Think about it, can your esteemed princess be able to complete these earth-shaking changes on her own? ”

"Boss, you ......"

"Grasp all that can be used, and recognize all that can be commanded. When the time comes to really need you, you will naturally know what to do. This one...... For you...... It's kind of ......."

The memory suddenly blurred again, he couldn't remember anything clearly, but he vaguely remembered that he seemed to see a pair of eyes that shimmered with silver light.

"Brother Owen? Brother Owen? Captain! Nika called the stunned Owen back, "What are you doing in a daze?" What to do, make a quick decision, time waits for no one. ”

Owen blinked, subconsciously touched his chest, and the last words of the boss echoed in his ears.

He looked at the crowd, and then at the green-skinned ghost tribe in the distance, his eyes firm.

"We have to save people, and the mission will not be wrong. Rest assured, I've got the means. Ladies and gentlemen, I need your cooperation with me. ”

MiG made several sets of equipment in succession, and after resting for a while, he was ready to work again. A voice suddenly rang in my ears.

"Cooperate with us to save people, otherwise, die!"

MiG was startled and turned to look, but saw no one, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a sudden commotion outside.

"What's going on?"

"Let's go out and have a look."

"Don't go, what can you do, today's work is not finished, one person can't finish it, we have to be punished by a group of people."

As soon as these words came out, they all wilted and obediently returned to their seats. But the movement outside became more and more coming, and even they trembled in this cave, as if all the green-skinned ghosts had been dispatched.

MiG couldn't help but be curious and was about to go out to have a look, but as soon as he reached the entrance of the cave, a black shadow with a clear face appeared out of thin air and blocked it.
