10. The Slave Gospel

I was back in that unusually real dream.

Wearing a sword-and-shield exoskeleton, I walked through the ruins of cities and the kingdom of plants.

Exposed to the scorching sun, but the armor counteracts most of the heat. I, Mirse, saw an iron gate in the cliff.

It was the entrance to a shelter.

The intelligence was not wrong, ninety kilometers northeast of the bunker, the expensive shelter facility of the Charon company, judging by the state of the door, it was intact.

Milse motioned to his comrades behind him to follow, the armor's jets allowing them to easily jump up a two-meter-high step, or a hook rope if it was three.

I heard a familiar voice, transmitted to Milse, belonging to Salvador, via a wireless communication device, saying, "Lord Viscount, I am still thinking about the attack on the bunker that day. ”

El Salvador has been able to go out in armor? This means that he has at least earned the title of knight, when is that? I remember the last dream in which they had just escaped a demon's attack.

"But it doesn't hurt to say," said Milse. ”

"The bunker is supposed to be invulnerable, but at least a hundred demons appeared that day, has the reason been investigated?"

"Not yet."

At this time, Count Serska said: "We have checked all the facilities, and there are no loopholes. The bunker is still tight. The demons that somehow got in perfectly avoided all the routes that laid out the Ember Crystals. ”

Mirser was in awe, and Serska, the brilliant and valiant model of knighthood, and the teacher with whom Milser most agreed, must have come to his own conclusions.

"There are spies," said Serska, "and this spies can summon a large number of demons. ”

The warriors said, "What? ”

Terska: "Yes, you heard it right, there is a powerful demon envoy among us, and one of the few ruthless characters in the Anno Empire. ”

Miser said, "A witch? ”

Serska: "Or maybe it's a wizard, a terrorist with a lot of hatred. ”

Mirsey had heard that the guards of the Sword and Shield Society had dealt with the Anno Empire on the frontier many times, and that they were despicable and adept at disrupting people with spies and terrorist attacks.

Of the three major forces in the California Wasteland, the Epoch Empire is perhaps the strongest, and their headquarters may even be in the northeastern part of the demonic continent. The Black Coffin is currently too weak to fight against the Anno Empire, and for a long time, the Sword and Shield Society will face this despicable opponent alone.

"He must be found as soon as possible," Mirse said. ”

"Even a demonic envoy can't have a feast as often as he did last time," said Serska. I don't know if you noticed that there was a comet in the sky that day. ”

Milse: "I see. ”

Another young female warrior, the one who had been saved by Salvador, asked, "How can we tell the demon messenger?" He may even be among us. ”

"There are so many ways to draw blood, take urine tests, interrogate and adjust video recordings, but for now, let's focus on the task," Serska said. ”

Neri smiled, "Count, you are always reassuring. ”

When they reached the door, Serska took out a flat-plated device, placed it on the iron door, and said, "If there are any inhabitants inside, please call back." ”

After a long time, one of them said excitedly, "Who are you?" How can we hack into our control system? ”

Serska said: "The system of these shelters is our Sword and Shield Society's specialty, without further ado, how many of you are there?" ”

The man said, "How much.... Why should I tell you? ”

"Please tell me," Serska said, "because we are your saviors." ”

"Fuck your shit! Lao Tzu fell in love with your mother...."

Terska laughed, "Oh, don't do that, I just care about you, do you have enough food?" Is the air system inside normal? Your scavengers must not have returned today, so would you like to come outside in such a nice weather? ”

The man said angrily, "You threaten us with their lives? ”

Therska shook her head and said, "No, actually, do you want to see this?" ”

He took out a few heads from his backpack and shook them in front of the monitor in the iron gate, and the man let out an "ah" and said, "This is.... It's nearby...."

"They claim to be from the Manson Gang, a group of powerful people who are kings of the mountain, but they are as weak as a bunch of chickens. We went up the hill and ping-pong for a while, and this is the result. You say it's appropriate to hang them on the wall as trophies? ”

There was silence for a moment, and then an old woman changed, and she said, "What do you want?" ”

"We are the Sword and Shield Society, and we are sorry to tell you that you must leave your homes and return with us to our bunker," Serska said. We'll treat you better, at least more comfortably than you have now. ”

The old woman said angrily, "I haven't heard of any sword and shield clubs!" But you speak in a tone that sounds no different from that of a robber, and we will not listen to your orders, and we of the Fobaylau villagers will never be slaves. ”

"I'm serious," Serska said. First, there may be great hidden dangers in your shelters. Second, you're too far away from our bunker for us to have people stationed there. Thirdly, I .... I'm really not an expert negotiator, can you listen to someone before it becomes ugly and crude? ”

The old woman said, "The night is coming, and there will be red demons here, and if you do not leave, your lives will not be saved." ”

Seska looked at Milse and asked, "Brother, do you want to try?" ”

Misser shook his head and smiled, "I can't do better than you." ”

Terska pressed the tablet, and the iron door quickly opened, and the villagers let out desperate exclamations. "Relax, relax, we will invite you as gently as possible," Serska said. ”

He continued to press on the tablet, and the elevator opened as if it greeted them, and they stepped into the elevator and descended.

If the villagers were smart enough, they might be able to prevent the invasion by destroying the elevators, but the circuitry in these shelters is too complex for the villagers to understand and simply not be able to destroy.

This was how the Sword and Shield Society invaded Waterless Village many years ago, subduing the villagers, leaving Ochid behind.

However, Waterless Village does not seem to be far from the Sword and Shield Society, so the Sword and Shield Society did not capture people back to the bunker.

Below, as soon as the iron door opened, bullets rained down on Mirsey and Seska, but the exoskeleton armor made them as hard as tanks, and the bullets were scattered everywhere, injuring the villagers.

Serska unleashed her telekinesis, and the weak couldn't hold their guns, and they snapped and fell one after another.

Serska said, "See? I said it would be better not to resist. ”

The old woman's face was pale, and she was still clutching her double-barreled shotgun, if she had been forty years younger, she would have had the opportunity to practice the Mind Blade and become a knight.

Milse's eyes were sharp, he looked around, and saw that several bright-eyed teenagers were not trembling by Therska's powerful telekinetic blades, he walked into the crowd and pulled the teenagers to his side, the children struggled to resist, but Mirsei strengthened the telekinesis, and they finally gave up.

"Again," said Milse, "do you depend for most of your food on some kind of mushroom in the ground, and where the mushroom grows, has there ever been a demon of three hounds?" ”

This fact was discovered by our Black Coffin, but as allies, we once told the Sword and Shield Society, so they also have a way to collect embers.

The old woman shook her head and said, "No, but there is a river underground, and there are some crabs and aquatic plants in the river." ”

"How many people are there in the village? ”

"Two hundred."

"Now, you have half an hour to go home and pack your bags," Serska said. What's your name, ma'am? ”

The old woman said coldly, "Jin Jun." ”

"Beautiful lady of the Golden Horse, I swear to you in my honor that our bunker is a paradise compared to yours, and you will appreciate our actions today, and regret that you have fought against us. ”

Suddenly, a black girl with curly hair screamed and rushed towards the knights, a shotgun in her hand. Jin Jun hurriedly said, "Aiyi, stop!" ”

The girl didn't listen, and Mirse looked at her, and suddenly took off her helmet and put her head against the muzzle of her gun, and the girl screamed and looked at Mirse's face with a helpless expression.

She was a little younger than Daria, and Milsey remembered Daria.

Missei said, "Miss, please believe that we are trying to save you. ”

The maiden cried and threw the shotgun, and Misser put his arms around her, and I knew that he had captured the heart of another maiden. This hateful brother is really black and white.

But he is the kind who flirts and doesn't marry, so why bother?

Salvatore and the young knights walked into the village square, the terrain of which was similar to that of a waterless village. They monitored everyone's movements, prevented any small movements, stopped all hidden dangers, and after half an hour, they took strong measures to bring the villagers together.

The Sword and Shield Society often did this, and the time was just right, and the scavengers who came back one after another were instantly controlled by Therska, and when they understood the situation, they also knew that there was no point in resisting.

At night, two hundred people walked down the mountain, and there would undoubtedly be demons on the way.

I don't know how they managed to cross this long journey of 90 kilometers.

Not far away were the ruins of a city, and between two office buildings, I saw an emaciated old man with dark circles under his eyes and a purple face, who was polite.

Around him were more than a dozen dead demons, many of them red demons, and the old man was unharmed.

The knights bowed to him and said, "Duke Baudelaire." "He is one of the Nine Hermits.

Baudelaire smiled and said, "The timing couldn't be better." ”

He pointed to a glass building in the middle of the office building, with a circular platform in the center, and the knights urged some of the villagers to go up to the platform, and in the blink of an eye, they were all gone.

The villagers panicked, the mother and father hugged the child, and the old man bowed his head and wept, which they thought was an execution.

Baudelaire said: "Rest assured, this is the ancient technology of the Charon company, there are teleportation points near every shelter, I have the authority to move a large number of refugees, it is not a torture instrument, but a means of transport." ”

The villagers were incredulous, and when someone turned around and ran, Salvatore stopped him and calmed him down with his telekinesis.

They began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
