Chapter 116: Entrapment
After hearing the news of Johnny's brothers' arrest, Eliagoth stood up excitedly, but because of this excitement, the wound that had just been bandaged was ripped open again.
Eliagoth leaned down slightly, whispered "silk", stroked the injured part, and then straightened up and said majestically: "What about them?" ”
"It's dead!"
"Good! You're doing a good job, this kind of scum should be killed! As he spoke, the corners of Eliagoth's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, but it was fleeting.
"The ......," the report's guard said heavily.
"Huh? Say whatever you want. Eliagos tilted his head and said.
"That's right, when we found the Johnny brothers outside the city, they were dead." The guard lowered his head and said, sneaking a glance at Eliagoth from time to time, looking a little afraid.
When Eliagoth heard this report, he frowned and said, "Where are they now?" ”
"Doorway!" The guard replied with some trepidation.
Then Eliagoth walked towards the door.
At this time, Tianxuan settled the two frightened girls and comforted: "It's okay, you sit and rest for a while, I'll go out and take a look and come back." ”
"Hmmm! Good! Both girls answered.
Then, Tianxuan went out with Eliagoth.
Outside the door, Tianxuan saw that the Johnny brothers were laid flat on the ground, but to his surprise, the death of the two brothers was very strange, covered with frost all over their bodies, and the seven orifices were also covered with ice crystals, and their faces were smiling stiffly. This death is almost identical to the previous deaths.
"How did you find out?" Eliagoth asked his men solemnly.
"City Lord, although the Johnny brothers were seriously injured, they still ran wildly, and we lost them for a while. But soon we spotted them very close outside the city. That's it when I found out! A delicate guard said.
Eliagoth looked at Brother Johnny, his eyebrows lowered, his nose wrinkled, his eyes were extremely constricted, he tilted his head and waved his hand, and said in disgust: "Carry it out of the city and bury it, out of sight." ”
"Order!" The guards then carried the Johnny brothers away.
After a while, Eliagoth stared at Tianxuan beside him and asked, "Tianxuan, what do you think of the Johnny brothers?" ”
"Your Excellency the Lord of the City, these two brothers are extremely vicious, but they died mysteriously, and there must be something strange about this matter. I think I'm afraid it's far from over. Tianxuan arched his hand and said.
"Indeed! I thought so too! Eliagoth nodded as well.
When the incident was over, Tengen sent Nicos and Black Katy back to their lodgings.
In the next few days, Labor City was calm and there was nothing going on, and Tianxuan also contacted Hercules: "Hercules, what are you doing in Stormwind City?" When will you be back? ”
"Hey! I'm busy, but I didn't expect you kid to come and see me. By the way, how was it in Labor City? Hercules asked.
"Not bad!"
"That's good! I'll go back when I get the ice crystals here! If you're okay, wait for me in Labor City for a few days! ”
"Okay! No problem! As he spoke, Tianxuan took a 3Q pose.
After the communication, Eliagoth smiled and said, "It seems that you two have a good relationship!" ”
"So-so!" Tianxuan scratched the back of his head and said, "By the way, what kind of place is City Lord Stormwind City?" ”
Eliagoth pondered for a moment and said, "Don't go to Stormwind City, Hercules' mission is estimated to be over in a short time, so you can wander around here during this time!" ”
"Thank you, Lord!" Tianxuan arched his hand and thanked him.
"Hmmm! Then I'll get busy first! ”
After Eliagoth left, Tengen took Nikos and Black Katy and began sightseeing around Labor City.
After about half a day, Nicos stopped, pouted and said, "It's boring, there are prisoners everywhere, it's boring!" ”
"Huh?" Tianxuan touched his cheek and said, "Then what do you want?" ”
"Forget it! I still went back to lie down, it was more comfortable than looking at these prisoners. ”
"Huh! All right! So, Tianxuan took the two girls back to their residence.
The first day passed so peacefully, and the second day didn't seem to be anything special, but when it came to the heat reduction period, a strange thing happened - for some reason, ice bats suddenly appeared in the city again, and the number of them was really rare.
On the third day, when the three of them woke up, they found some chaos in the city. So, they went to the main hall of the city, and according to the guards, Eliagoth went to the prisoner's quarters to deal with important incidents.
"A major event? What is it? Tianxuan frowned and asked.
"I don't know the specifics, anyway, I heard that the prisoners are making trouble in a group!" The guard replied straightly.
"Oh! I see, thank you! Then, Tianxuan turned to the two girls and said, "I don't know what is happening, or you two go back to the residence first, and I will come back after a look." ”
"But......" Nicos stretched out his hand to stop.
However, Tianxuan immediately retorted: "After all, it is a prisoner's living quarter, in order to avoid the Johnny brothers taking hostages, you two should go back obediently!" I can handle it myself! ”
Nicolas nodded helplessly, and went back with Black Katy.
Next, Tianxuan rushed to the prisoner's residential area by fixed-point transmission.
It took less than half an hour for Tianxuan to arrive at his destination, and at this time, he saw a group of people gathered not far away.
"It must be there!" Tianxuan muttered to himself, and hurriedly rushed towards the crowd. Sure enough, Eliagoth was there.
At this time, Tianxuan saw tens of thousands of prisoners and the guards led by Eliagoth confronting each other. Tianxuan, who didn't know why, decided to take a look at the situation on the side first, and after a while, he figured out the general situation.
A bald-headed fat prisoner took the lead and shouted: "If this continues, we will stop doing it, we will leave the labor city." ”
Eliagoth hurriedly reassured: "Everyone, don't be impatient, I am also very sad that this kind of thing has happened. In the future, I will strengthen patrols in the city to ensure everyone's safety. ”
"What's next? How many times has this happened this month, and although we are prisoners, we are not used to feed monsters! Give us permission, we're going to leave Labor City. "The bald and fat prisoners are still unrelenting.
In this way, after negotiating for a long time, the two sides barely quieted down until they connected with Speaker Victoria. With the assurance of the Speaker of Parliament Victoria, if this happened again, the City of Labour would be closed immediately, all prisoners would be repatriated and their sentences commuted.
So, with the Speaker's promise, the prisoners gave up and gradually dispersed. At the same time, Eliagoth was severely reprimanded and warned that if a similar incident occurred again, he would be punished for dereliction of duty and sent someone to take his place as lord of the city. His affairs are now recorded for future teaching.
After the communication, Elija Godston felt a lot of pressure, his eyelids kept dancing, and he sharply ordered his men to strictly guard against the invasion of ice bats from now on, and if they slackened, they would be dealt with by military law.
After that, Tianxuan accompanied the dejected Eliagoth back to the city lord's hall.
"Hey!" Back in the City Lord's Hall, Eliagoth sighed.
Tianxuan then comforted: "Why is the city lord discouraged. ”
Eliagoth sighed and said, "I think I swept thousands of armies back then, and I wasn't as aggrieved as I am today. ”
"The city lord turned out to be a berserker too?" Tianxuan asked.
"Yes! Radamandis is still my junior brother, and this kid is still in a good life! Eliagoth said with some frustration.
"Since the city lord has such powerful martial arts, what is there to be frustrated!"
"Open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, this bat, it's really not my forte."
Hearing this, Tianxuan shook his head and said, "The city lord doesn't have to be depressed. As long as you grasp the source of anything, it will definitely be solved. Besides, didn't the city lord of Radamandis also be captured in the battle with the trench ronin before? I don't think there are too many difficulties in this ice bat incident, since we already know the habits of ice bats, why not prescribe a cure. ”
At this time, Eliagoth's eyes lit up, as if he had come to the spirit, and asked Tianxuan for a plan.
So, Tianxuan and Eliagoth exchanged ears......
I don't know how long it took, but the conversation between the two ended. Eliagoth swept away the previous decadence and said with a smile, "Oops! Or if you have a way, I'll go and execute this plan right away. ”
Then Eliagoth shouted, "Someone! ”
Hearing Eliagoth's shout, several guards immediately came in. So, Eliagoth went down according to Tianxuan's plan......
At this time, there are still 4 hours left before the heat reduction period. In a cave outside the city, a large group of ice bats is gathering together, waiting for an opportunity. At this time, the heat reduction period of Labor City was actually advanced, and the waiting ice bats immediately couldn't hold back and dispatched one after another.
On the other side, Eliagoth had already laid a net, waiting for the group of ice bats to take the bait.
Although patrols have been stepped up at the city gates, the ice bats are still ubiquitous, but this time, their wishful thinking has failed.
When it was almost time to get to the surface, Eliagoth ordered the central control room to immediately restore the heat in Labor City. In an instant, the entire Labor City was bright again, and the ice bats immediately became invisible.
It's not that you can see where all the ice bats are hiding because they get brighter, but because these ice bats can't stand the heat and fly out of the city. This sudden attack was the strategy developed by Tianxuan based on the weakness of the ice bats described by Black Katy.
"Looks like it's working out really well! Brother Tianxuan! Eliagoth, who was watching from a distance, praised Tianxuan with a smile on his face.
Tianxuan smiled modestly and said, "Where! Where! It's just a matter of knowing oneself and one's opponent, taking advantage of their weaknesses, and then attacking! ”
While the two of them were talking and laughing, 10,000 ice bats were caught or killed.
After receiving the report, Eliagos sighed: "After this battle, the panic in Labor City will be calmed down, and the prisoners should be in a stable mood." It's all your fault! ”
"I am willing to do my part!" Tianxuan arched his hand and said.
The Ice Bat incident may seem like a major victory, but it's not the end, it's just the beginning. Just as the Labor City re-entered the period of heat reduction, a long-planned conspiracy began......
