A heavily reinforced giant chariot slowly advanced on the center line of the old city, this chariot was almost like a hill, seven or eight meters high, twenty meters long, with a giant ram on the front, and the whole body was an all-alloy structure, with no wheels underneath, but two rows of tracks, which were more fierce than the tanks of the old era.

Wherever the chariot passed, there was no need to fire or the superpower's hands, and trees and buildings that stood in front of it would be knocked down by the ram and then crushed into powder by the tracks.

At the top of the chariot is a small platform, there is a large parasol on the platform, and under the umbrella there are actually two sets of sofas and a delicate small round table, Hu Lian, Wang Hao and Murong Yan are sitting on the platform, and there are several guards of the sixth or seventh order standing by the guardrail around the platform, looking at the surrounding environment.

"It's also a good thing to bulldoze the Old Town?" Wang Hao was confused, he had only heard that construction was a good thing, but he had never heard that destruction was a good thing, and it was also the destruction of such a devastated old city that had already been destroyed.

If he says that bulldozing the old city is a very cool thing, Wang Hao does not object, just like playing a game to call up the cheats and then crush a group of small miscellaneous soldiers, it will indeed be cool for a while, but after a long time, it will be boring, too unchallenging, but after all, some people are keen on this, but no matter how it is involved, it can't be related to "good things".

Could it be that this Lord Count is a saboteur?

Hu Lian glanced at Murong Yan with some surprise, then looked at Wang Hao, and then said, "Why don't you even know this?" ”

It seems that he feels strange, the nobleman who can mix with Murong Yan is obviously not without an identity background, and although the baron in front of him has a very low title, his strength is surprisingly high, but he didn't expect that even this kind of common sense that is circulating among the high-level is not clear.

Wang Hao shrugged: "I'm just a little nobleman from the countryside, besides, I can't even afford to raise my subordinates now, how can I have the time to worry about military affairs, that's what you big people should pay attention to." ”

At this time, Wang Hao did not forget to pretend to be poor, and the acting had to be in place and enter the play.

Hu Lian took a sip of coffee, and said lightly without raising his head: "Didn't even the Marquis of Zhenhai tell you?" ”

Wang Hao shook his head: "When I was with him, in addition to insulting each other, I slandered each other, and there was more time for nonsense and less time for talking right." It's almost the same to talk about women, and never talk about military affairs. ”

Hu Lian was not surprised, and said with a smile: "That's also, with the strength of Zhenhaihou, there is really no need to care about these little things." ”

In the following conversation, Wang Hao finally understood why the destruction of the old city was a good thing.

In the end, it's because of mutations!

The reason why new humans appeared was because of the mutation of genes, and a certain gene fragment that could awaken human super-energy genes was discovered from the sea, which led to a series of later changes.

After the social stability, the rulers of the new human race began to pay attention to another problem: since the genes of human beings are not stable, will there be a degenerative gene that can improve human abilities, or even a gene that destroys the new human race?

It is entirely possible that human beings' exploration of the earth and life is far less clear than they imagined.

And in fact, something similar is happening, with mutated new humans and secondary mutants being examples! There is a very small chance that the conversion will fail during the conversion process, resulting in mutated new humans who have no human intelligence, only know how to kill, and even have major mutations in appearance, and due to the lack of blood for a long time, or the use of "unclean" food, many new humans in the old city have also undergone secondary mutations.

Although the secondary mutant humans still belong to the category of new humans, they are very different from the new humans in general, their food range has become wider, and the demand for the blood of the old humans has become smaller, as long as the blood of the living beings can maintain life, and the ability system may surge or degenerate.

However, the new human beings of the second mutation have a common characteristic, and their psychology is basically perverted in the eyes of ordinary people.

There seems to be no words of friendship, care, and peace in their consciousness, but they are full of extremism, narrow-mindedness, and killing, even for their loved ones, as long as a look makes him feel uncomfortable, they will not hesitate to kill them, and sometimes their killing is even unreasonable, just killing for the sake of killing.

That's right, it's perverted, psychopathic, physiologically perverted, superpowered perverted, and physically perverted.

As the number of secondary mutants in the old city grew, a second generation of secondary mutants appeared, that is, the descendants of the first generation of secondary mutants, who were more cruel, radical, and aggressive than their parents.

The new humans with secondary mutations are already showing signs of producing mutated genes, and the growing population base makes such mutation highly likely.

If the secondary mutant becomes contagious, it will be a big problem. The upper echelons of the new human race would rather kill the lower echelons of the world rather than see the whole world filled with a bunch of crazy psychopaths and violent maniacs.

Whether there is reason or not, this is the most fundamental way to distinguish man from beast. Even wild beasts don't attack others or their own kind for no reason.

So, when a city's old city has reached a certain number of people, or the city is in ruins and no one to manage it, the state sends a lean army that has two tasks, the first is to receive the wealth of the city, and the second is to sweep away or destroy the old city.

If time is available, the theory is to kill all life in the ruins, including the Old Town.

"Ruthless!" Wang Hao gave a thumbs up and said curiously: "If this continues, after a few decades, will there still be people on the earth?" ”

Count Hu Lian shrugged: "Maybe it will degenerate into a slave society, but then it's none of our business, the expediency of the nobility is still guaranteed." ”

Although the speed of the chariot is not fast, it can only advance ten kilometers in an hour, but there is no obstacle along the way, occasionally a few secondary mutants, monkey tricksters and the like to make trouble, just emerge from the ruins, there will be a Hu Lian's escort flying out of the car to break the head of the secondary mutant into a ball of minced meat, and then back to the car.

Several other brigades were equipped with similar sweeping vehicles, and the whole unit slowly advanced in a dragnet fashion, and in less than a day, it was almost the whole old town was bulldozed.

Said to be bulldozing, then it is really bulldozing, Wang Ha sat on the chariot and looked back, he had a clear view all the way to the ground, the building debris all over the ground, there is no thing more than two meters can still stand, the field of vision is very wide. And within the reach of the Pupil of Insight, there is no sign of life other than sweeping the army.

Desolation, this is the biggest feeling left to Wang Hao, it seems that the whole world is destroying at a slow speed, life is gradually passing, slowly moving towards the final silence.

Soon, we were on the edge of the old city, and from the chariot we could already see the mountains in the wilderness two kilometers away, but we had never met any decent resistance, let alone some immortal dynasty of eunuchs.

Hu Lian's eyes also changed a little when he looked at Wang Hao, he took a sip of coffee, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, there doesn't seem to be the Immortal Dynasty you said here." ”

"Probably shifted." Wang Hao laughed: "Due to the military prestige of adults, those Xiaoxiao will inevitably flee from the wind, which I have long expected!" ”

Hu Lian smiled and nodded: "That's right, I haven't embarrassed the Duke yet." He then turned around and asked, "But what about the robbed vault reserves?" Mr. Wang, where do you think the reserves will be? ”

Wang Hao spread his hands and shook his head: "How do I know this, if I knew, I would have chased it back and dedicated it to the country." ”

Hu Lian smiled and beckoned to an adjutant.

The adjutant bent down and put his ears together, Hu Lian whispered something, the adjutant nodded, saluted, and then led the guards on the roof of the chariot into the chariot carriage from the stairs.

Seeing this situation, Murong Yan also smiled slightly, got up and rose up, and found a reason to leave the platform on the roof of the chariot.

Wang Hao knew that this Mr. Earl was going to talk to him about business, and the gag just now was afraid that it would not work.

Sure enough, Hu Lian lifted his glasses and said, "Lord Wang is a person who understands, and I won't break some words." Before the Duke sent me this time, he heard that you were fighting in the vicinity, and he told me that there was a half chance that the contents of the vault were gone. ”

He laughed, "Do you understand what it means that half the probability is gone?" ”

Wang Hao thought for a while and said with a smile: "This sounds very awkward, does it mean that half of the reserves in the vault are gone, which is more appropriate?" ”

Hu Lian laughed: "You are a smart person, that's what it means." I think it's okay to use the power of Lord Wang to help the state recover half of the stolen reserves of the treasury. When the time comes, with this merit, I will give you the territory of the original blood cow, and then be promoted to viscount, I don't think it will be a big problem. ”

You don't have a big problem, but I have a big problem! Wang Hao secretly said in his heart, this territory was originally won by me, whether you seal it or not is mine, as for the title, it is even less valuable, how many years can the new era last? A viscount title sounds good, but it's useless.

The lion opens his mouth widely, and half of his mouth is needed.

It stands to reason that although this batch of reserves is huge, through dealing with Peng Qing, almost half of the construction of slave fortresses and the purchase of mutant beasts have been spent, which means that the total value is about 10 billion.

If you remove the factor of Peng Qing's price reduction, the total value will not exceed 20 billion.

Two hundred billion is an astronomical amount for a lord, but for a state, it is nothing, this southeast grand duke is obviously taking advantage of himself, since he is a good person, why not do it at one time.

If you divide it in half, instead of thanking the Grand Duke, you will be dissatisfied. It's a very simple truth, if you don't give it, it won't work if you give it and take some of it, it's impossible for such a simple thing not to understand the grand duke who has been in the political arena for a long time.

Hu Lian saw that Wang Hao was contemplative and didn't speak, so he reminded lightly: "You must know that I was born in the Crocodile Battalion and am a member of the Grand Duke's personal guard, and I am only responsible to the Grand Duke." ”
