Chapter 12 Co-optation of robbers
Lu Fengxian hadn't killed as vigorously as he did now for a long time, and at this time, he launched his might, basically no one could stop him, and he killed directly in front of the thief.
"Are you the other team leader this time?" Lu Bu carried the giant axe on his shoulder and said coldly: "You have no way to escape." There is still a chance to survive if you surrender now, otherwise, the next moment will be when your head hits the ground, so what is your choice?"
"I choose to surrender!" The gloomy man made a decision directly, and seeing Lu Bu's surprised expression, he couldn't help but smile and said: "I was forced to be a robber, and you are too strong, we have no power to fight back in front of you, if you don't surrender, there is only a dead end." ”
"You're very smart!" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows and said, "Now let them lay down their weapons and hold their heads in their hands, otherwise they will be killed." ”
Lu Bu commanded, the gloomy man nodded in agreement, and then loudly asked the robbers to surrender, and at this time Gao Shun led the people had already been killed, and then under the incredible expressions of the militiamen, all the robbers were tied. It seems that except for Lu Bu and the three of them, no one thought that the battle would be fought so simply, and the victory would be so fast, and there were some losses in the militia, but compared to the victory, it was simply insignificant!
Chen Gong gave an order to gather all the robbers together and put them under the care of the people of the town, and even so, a third of the robbers were all killed in this battle, and many of the remaining robbers were wounded. Chen Gong ordered the robbers to take off their clothes, and then pressed Naproru and the gloomy man over, ready to start the interrogation, and the matter should be sooner rather than later, and it was best to steal the camp at night.
"What's your name?" Chen Gong glanced at the gloomy man, feeling that there must be a story behind him, his pair of discerning eyes can still recognize people, and he couldn't help but smile faintly: "I think you should not be willing to become a robber, and from your use of magic, it can be seen that your identity is definitely not ordinary." ”
Magician, in this world, seems to be synonymous with unusual, people who can become magicians, are one-in-a-million existences, able to communicate with external elements, and use for themselves, many abilities. Chen Gong seemed to have such an ability, because they couldn't absorb that kind of element in the space at all, but Lu Bu was able to do it easily, maybe because Lu Bu's strength was too strong.
"Now that I've become a prisoner, there's no way around. The gloomy man glanced at Lu Bu, who was sitting on the throne, and said in a deep voice: "My name is Edward Eric, I used to be a nobleman, because of the great changes in my family, I have to become a robber, and now if I am sent to the Flying Eagle Lord, I will definitely be able to exchange for a lot of gold coins, but the Flying Eagle Lord has been paying a high price for my head!"
"Edward-Eric, I don't care what your previous identity was, now I only ask if you are willing to submit to me!" Lu Bu glanced at Edward indifferently, and said lightly: "If you are willing to submit, you will be my person in the future, and I will naturally give you enough protection." ”
Edward glanced at Lu Bu in disbelief, he really couldn't believe that what he heard was true, you must know that even if he took refuge in the robber's den, there were many people who wanted to beat him, but he didn't expect the mighty man in front of him to not even ask him. Edward's blue eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise, and at the same time stared closely at Lu Bu's eyes, and found that those dark eyes were like black holes, making people fall into them.
"Edward Eric is willing to chase whoever is on the master's side. Edward thought about the situation at this time, and felt that maybe it would be a very good thing to surrender to the man in front of him, so he knelt on the ground and swore allegiance: "Edward will definitely help the master to exterminate all the robbers in the Black Wind Mountain." ”
"Just call me my lord. Lu Bu made Edward stand up and said, "What I want is not extermination, but co-optation." ”
"Co-optation?" Edward's eyes widened in astonishment, "Is the lord going to take the robbers for his own use?"
"That's right!" Lu Bu said indifferently: "I am short of soldiers and people now, co-optation is the best way, of course, the most heinous people still need to be punished, that big bald head, what is your choice? Surrender or die?"
Lu Bu's domineering side really made Edward a little unacceptable, but in reason, it was hard for him to imagine that such a powerful person would recruit robbers as his subordinates, which was unheard of. However, Edward could be sure that Lu Bu was definitely not so simple as words, and he saw in Lu Bu's eyes a greater ambition, perhaps conquering the robbers was only the first step.
"My lord, his name is Napru, and I am sure I will persuade him to surrender. Edward looked at Lu Bu, muttered for a moment, and assured: "Naproru is a rare subordinate, and he is very brave, very suitable for charging into battle, and he will definitely be able to help the lord in the future." ”
"Yes? I'll leave it to you, and give you an hour, which is two hours. Lu Bu squinted at Edward, and said in a deep voice: "Two hours later, we set out to attack the Black Wind Mountain, if we don't succeed, kill it directly, I don't have much time to waste on a garbage, and people who can't even take a single move really can't think of any use." ”
Edward's breathing was short, he felt a strong killing intent just now, it was a kind of murderous aura that could only be condensed by killing many people, and that kind of murderous aura was not something that a hundred or even a thousand people could do. Edward was very curious about what kind of existence Lu Bu had before, but he was glad that he had chosen to surrender in the first place, otherwise Lu Bu would have cut off his head with a giant axe without hesitation!
"Lord, do you really believe that Edward?" Chen Gong glanced at the room and said lightly: "Although I know that Edward should not be a bad person, otherwise he would not have used water magic to impact the fortifications in the first place, but would have destroyed it with more powerful magic, but this person is a robber after all, and he can't fully believe it, wouldn't it be too risky to steal the camp tonight, plus his words?"
"Don't worry!Gongtai, I know what you're worried about, I'll give him a chance, why don't you give us a chance?" Lu Bu looked up at the white clouds in the sky, and said with a smile: "Now we are like floating clouds in the sky, there are no roots at all, if you want to take root down, you must try to integrate into this world, after all, no one can change the world, but can only adapt to him." ”
Chen Gong glanced at Lu Bu in surprise, he didn't expect Lu Bu to say such a thing, and at the same time he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, it seems that Lu Bu also began to try to think about some things with his brain, which is really gratifying.
