Chapter 276: Tik's Dream Eight
"Why did you send this back, it's too cowardly, isn't it?" Lord Jiao Ming seemed to be surprised, but the meaning revealed in his words was obvious, that is, he had already given up on this little maid in his heart. Tickton had a feeling of sadness for the death of a rabbit and a fox, if he was carried in front of Lord Jiao Ming like this one day, he would obviously not hear any good words.
"You go and call back all those vases, and by the way, you have released the flowers. ”
Tike bowed down and took the order, and soon after saw a spectacle, a beautiful maid named Lotus pounced on the little water heater and examined it with tears, then opened her bow left and right, and slapped Master Jiao Ming hard. And the latter's reaction was very strange, his face was distorted, and his arms were raised high, but he just couldn't fall, so he could only play tricks: "woman! If you hit me again, you'll turn your face and fight back, stop it, I'll tell you to stop, don't you understand?" Okay, okay, for the sake of your aunt coming, I don't care about you, and if you hit it three more times, it's over!"
Syllable!
"One!"
Syllable!
"Two!"
Syllable!
"Three!"
Syllable!
"It's just for nothing!"
Syllable!
"The paralyzed ones are still beaten, don't give them faces, don't you? The two stupid forks outside, come in...... Get out...... In...... Your uncle, watch me share the pain with you. ”
"Do you need a potion of addiction?" Unlike Tik, Butterfly clearly knew what to do in this situation.
"Get out! Master Jiao Ming yelled back. But such a reply, to a certain extent, was equivalent to 'yes' to Dieda, so soon, the two strong men outside the door forcibly poured a large bottle of magic addiction potion despite Lord Jiao Ming's inconsistencies and inconsistencies.
What surprised Tik even more was that the maid of Rose, who had been slapping her, was slightly stunned halfway, and then began to stop the strong magic addiction potion, but her little arms couldn't twist her thighs, and she was tied up by two strong men in two clicks, unable to move. This little episode subsided, and Tik, who watched the whole process, wanted to laugh inexplicably, but when Master Jiao Ming 'returned to normal' and waved at him with a smile on his face, Tik realized that trouble was coming.
Sure enough, when he walked within arm's length, Tik was slapped in the back and back. "It's all because of you, otherwise it wouldn't be proper to suppress that goods. Tik covered his cheeks, feeling a fishy sweetness in his mouth, and did not dare to show any anger and resentment towards the obvious evil fire of his boss.
"Hey, there seems to be a way, haha...... Good way! Good way!" In the clapping of applause, Lord Jiao Ming squatted down, put his arm on Tik's shoulder, and said softly: "I hurt you, I'm really sorry, forgive the master, okay? That's you, Dieda, rub him, and send him off. With that, he lifted the unconscious little maid water heater and disappeared from the study in an instant.
The next day, the front page of The Onion newspaper headlined: "Mourning for the Forty-one Revolutionary Martyrs"
Subtitle: "Expressing Profound Condolences to the Remaining 411 Brave and Fearless Revolutionary Fighters and Wishing a Speedy Recovery"
Such a timely report certainly attracted the attention of all the townspeople, and even in the school, under the influence of 'unknown' forces, the students with the best lingua franca in each class read the newspaper to everyone. And Tik finally understood what Lord Jiao Ming said about the 'ideological position' not long ago, and the enemy really did not take any action in many of the links that Lord Jiao Ming paid attention to, or did not pay attention to at all. As for whether these links really mattered, Tick couldn't figure it out.
In this report, I will first describe yesterday's events, how righteous the revolutionary fighters were, how the strong men of the Nine Rings who suppressed them were brutal and evil, and the grand occasion of the collective confrontation of the strong men of the Nine Rings by thousands of magicians above the Sixth Ring in the hospital in the afternoon, and then complimented Lord Evan, the lord who came forward in time to maintain order and prevent the escalation of the conflict. Then he invoked the laws and regulations that Lord Evan had made to prove the legitimacy of this demonstration and the illegal and criminal nature of the Nine Rings strong. In the end, everyone's jaws were shocked to define the strong man with the Nine Rings as a murderer, and once again cited the legal rules on the disposal of murderers: beheading for public display.
The image of the strong man of the Nine Rings is unattainable in the hearts of everyone in the United Kingdom, and the killing of the strong man of the Nine Rings is also 'natural' and 'habitual' in everyone's eyes, and there is no need to be punished. Comparing the earth to the earth, it is as if after a person enters the Eighth Ring, he naturally obtains a 'murder license', and when he enters the Ninth Ring, he is granted a 'casual killing license'.
And today's statement in the Onion newspaper made the hearts of all the townspeople tremble, and all kinds of emotions were mixed with the cracked worldview, and they looked forward to the final outcome of the event infinitely.
Such a special meaning does not make the children think too much, for example, in Tik's class, the classroom is already full of forty-eight people, and after a brief discussion, the building is crooked, and the conversation begins to talk about homework and exams, and of course, what to play after class. At this point, Tick noticed Luckfee's unusual silence.
"What's wrong? Upset?"
"Are revolutionary fighters good people?" asked Luckfee in a low voice.
Remembering that Luckfei's eldest brother seemed to have participated in the ambush of the tax team's group beating, then it was logical to participate in yesterday's demonstration, and then remembering the nearly one-tenth mortality rate, Tike couldn't help but confirm: "Your eldest brother also went yesterday?
"It's fine, it's just a bruise. ”
Tik breathed a sigh of relief, and then replied, "Of course he is a good person." ”
"But...... But...... Last night, my father warned us that whoever dared to participate in such a thing again would cut off our legs with his own hands with a spatial rift. ”
"Then listen to your father, and don't get involved. We should not be bad people, nor good people, but ordinary people who are not good or bad. Tik said as he took Luckfee's small hand, a little hard to comfort him. Luckfield sensed Tik's sincerity, nodded and said nothing.
On the construction site in the afternoon, amid the roar of the concrete mixer, all kinds of chattering still continued to reach Tik's hearing-enhanced ears. The primary focus of the discussion is, of course, to predict the development of the situation, and the middle and low-ring magicians who are moving bricks or gravel are like the elder brothers of the imperial capital of the earth, for fear that they will seem to know less than others, and all kinds of speculations with inside information or uncle's leaks are endless.
The most common is of course the aristocratic scandal theory, but there are not many people who agree with it, such as the cousin of the Evan lord and his mother, who are not clear, in order to cover up, this situation is set up, and the conclusion is that the nine rings will die. The second is conspiracy theories, which are widely supported by suspicions that this is just an ordinary power struggle, and there is no fuss. After all, Evan, as a lord, was restrained by his cousin everywhere, of course, he tried to kick it out and hurry up, and listed various royal rumors in his hometown, and the conclusion was that the Nine Rings would be fine if they took off their skin.
Of course, there are a few people who are vaguely aware of the special role played by The Onion Newspaper, but they can't give more speculation beyond conspiracy theories, just make some extended additions: no matter what the outcome is this time, the life of the powerhouse of the Nine Rings and the authority of Lord Evan can only be one.
Because he learned his father's attitude from Luckfield, Tik paid special attention to his boss at this time, but found that the middle-aged man just nodded in agreement, and didn't say a word at all.
When the sun was setting in the west, someone ran to the construction site to give a notice, and all the magical workers of the sixth ring and above went to the town hall for a meeting, and the lord had something important to announce. The original lively atmosphere of the construction site cooled down instantly, and only the roar of a few machines gradually disappeared after a few breaths due to the stoppage of the host.
And the foremen, squad leaders, and even stewards of all sizes, walked out of the construction site slowly under the silent gaze of the crowd.
In the evening, as soon as Tik approached the door of the study, he heard the sound of Lord Jiao Ming laughing, and suddenly felt relaxed, tonight probably won't be too difficult. However, Tik soon regretted this optimism, because in addition to routine magic testing, he actually learned Qi magic: arrow protection, and the teaching methods were quite rough.
After two brief demonstrations, Tik was asked to use this arrow protection magic to defend against the new weapon that Master Jiao Ming had spent the night playing with. The main body of this thing is a slender trumpet-shaped iron pipe, plus the wooden support used to hold it at the back, like an elongated and improved version of the fire magician's staff, but the rather weird overall image is set off by the exquisite carvings on the iron pipe and the wooden support.
However, when pointed at the thing, seeing it fire and feeling severe pain, Tik didn't think so. The vision slanted in a haze, only for the injury on his calf that caused him to fall to the ground.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's a four-ring magic warrior, don't be so cowardly, okay? Besides, where is your arrow protection? Why don't I feel any spatial fluctuations? Oh, maybe I haven't seen this thing, it's too sudden, right? Then I'll introduce it, this is called a musket, but it's a weapon that will definitely bring new life to the world. The specific principle is also very simple, and it will be taught in physical chemistry class, so I won't give you spoilers. But you speak! I hate being ignored the most. ”
"I'm ......" Tik twitched his lungs in pain, barely inhaling plenty of air, but ......
A second shot rang out, and Tik's other calf was also hit by a bullet, but it was still a penetrating wound because of the close range of the shot.
At this time, the door was opened, but it was the maid of Luohua, who was attracted by the sound of gunshots, and when she saw this, she rushed to Tik's side, checked her injuries, and then looked up and yelled at Lord Jiao Ming, "What are you doing?
"Teaching Qi magic: arrow protection, of course, is a bit ahead of its time. ”
Combining the water magic with Tik's body instinct, Lotus stopped the bleeding from the wound in a few breaths, and then walked over to Lord Jiao Ming, who was loading the bullet, and dodged the musket with his splitter and smashed it with his backhand. It was as if yesterday's farce had played out again, but by this time Tik had no time to appreciate it, closed his eyes and concentrated on communicating with the water magic medium, and did his best to make the calf injury heal. At this moment, he suddenly felt an extremely familiar, as if the power of water magic from the same source was urging the healing of the wound together with him. When I opened my eyes, I saw a little maid named Water Heater.
Suddenly learned magic, and was so friendly, it must have been Master Jiao Ming who had done another 'experiment', but what surprised Tik was the little maid's new pair of transparent arms, and it took a long time to see that this was actually the condensation of earth-based magic.
......
The next day, three days after the parade in front of the Tax Corps' headquarters, Lord Evan announced a series of new policies and a judicial ruling. Plunge all the townsfolk of Beak Town into joy and frenzy.
Although the new policy has many provisions, it can be summed up as a matter of citizenship. First of all, the tax team will be abolished, and it will be replaced by a voluntary payment of personal income tax at the tax department next to the town hall with a salary slip, and from now on, all taxpayers will be granted the right to citizenship and participate in the decision-making of the troop by voting.
And taking into account the difference in personal strength, set multiple thresholds. First of all, those who do not have the pay slips issued by the Trollian factory or whose wages are insufficient will not be entitled to pay taxes. Secondly, those who have children or those who have more than the sixth ring road, after paying more than a certain amount of taxes, will obtain the status of 'big citizen' and have three times the right to vote. The Eighth Ring is the same as the Ninth Ring powerhouse, after paying more than a certain amount of taxes, it will obtain the status of 'super citizen' and have nine times the voting rights.
At the same time, in order to maintain law and order, a guard directly under Evan will be established, tentatively named the Bloodclaw Army. Considering that every citizen has the duty to defend their homeland, the Bloodclaws will be based on a system of compulsory military service for all citizens. In the current situation, all citizens must take turns to patrol the streets, about 20 days and half a day. Completely replace some of the attributes of the tax team to maintain law and order.
The last and most concerning thing for everyone is the ruling on the powerhouse of the Nine Rings. Unexpectedly, or unexpectedly, it was the death penalty, which was carried out three days later, in a large mine just outside the town, and Lord Evan sincerely invited all the townspeople to witness this historically significant execution.
The Onion newspaper of course preached these things in a series of articles, and the morning newspaper reading in the school almost became the norm, and the townspeople were even more discussant, and in such an environment, the first group of 'big citizens', that is, the strong men above the sixth ring who were called to the meeting the next day, began to patrol. In a group of five, each carrying a musket diagonally, stepping on a floating frisbee, flying through the streets and alleys, and promoting the existence of the Blood Claw Army with practical actions.
On the sixth day of the parade at the gate of the headquarters of the tax team, that is, the day of the Ming Zhengzheng punishment of the strong man of the Nine Rings, there were tens of thousands of people in the big mine to see the lively townspeople. The Blood Claw Army, which had been established for a few days, went out to maintain order, erected a huge wooden sign with the name of the factory written on it, and gradually gathered the crowd according to the internal organization of the factory. The scene is no longer chaotic when there is no big mess, after all, both the military and the civilian are acquaintances, and even the top boss himself.
And when the first offender was pushed out, the whole pit seemed to have exploded, and the noise soared into the sky. Evan's family also seems to attach great importance to this matter, and dispatched five nine-ring powerhouses to escort Evan's cousin. However, the six nine-ring powerhouses obviously did not expect that the scene would be so spectacular at this time.
The fall in the price of metal caused the Great Depression of the handicraft industry throughout the United Kingdom, and then the craftsmen who unwittingly recruited people from a mine, the numbers on paper are not at all the same as the oppression of such a crowd. Imagine that there are thousands of people in the sixth, seventh, or even eighth rings, if there is a conflict, even if the powerhouse above the ninth ring suppresses it with the ability to vibrate the Holy Demon Sea, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape.
According to the routine, the charges were announced, the identity was identified, and then a gunshot rang out, and the audience in a pit still seemed to be a little incredulous that a nine-ring powerhouse was killed like this, and only after he had breathed did he start cheering. Then there were a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals who served as desserts after the meal, and ate the guns one by one, allowing the audience to climb a few more small peaks in the afterglow of high X.
This death penalty was already the result of an agreement reached by all parties in the family after agreeing on the conditions and sharing the cake, so there were no accidents, and it was simply over.
And that night, Tik couldn't be calm, because Lord Jiao Ming took advantage of his position to arrange a special task for him: to shoot the spy. "You have already seen the information of these two people, judging from their usual performance, they are two of the few good people in the tax team, but there is intelligence that one of them is a spy sent by the Folke Kingdom. I'll give you ten minutes to kill the Spy, or I'll kill you, after all, the results of the experiment are out, and theoretically you're useless, but you're going to cause a lot of trouble. See for yourself. ”
Tik shuddered in both strands, and the urethral sphincter relaxed, just because of this and the musket on the temple. The power of the musket has been felt many times in the past few days, and today I finally successfully avoided it with arrow protection, but I didn't expect that not only was there no reward, but it was a death notice at the end of the experiment.
After a moment of staring at the two pairs of eyes that were also full of fear, Tik saw a gray-haired teenager with an extremely distorted face from all four pupils. Not wanting to die, he kept repeating this sentence in his heart, completely losing the logical ability to find loopholes in the information and ask them clearly, Tik finally stabbed both of them to death as the demons around him wished.
"Just kidding, the way you look and behave, it's amazing. How could I have killed you, it's too late to like you. However, it is true that the experiment is over, and it will be done every twenty days in the future. Okay, go ahead, a good life awaits you. ”
Tick stepped on two pools of blood on the ground in a daze, walked out of the study step by step, and when he stepped out of the main entrance of the building, he realized that he still held a bloody dagger in his hand and a line of bloody footprints behind him.
