"Su Hao?"

Wang Hu's expression became more and more puzzled: "Is that the doctor you sent?" Why? What did those bastard aristocrats have to do with him? I liked this little guy and the people in the town had a good impression of him. I remembered, yesterday there were three nobles in the town, saying that they were looking for a doctor to discuss some business? Could it be that it has something to do with this? ”

"He got a biological sample of an unknown Cheng dù very high."

Wang Hu has too many questions, he has always been impatient, and all the questions can be answered in a second, but Qiao Tianyu can only explain them one by one: "According to the evaluation of the Imperial Research Institute, the rare Cheng dù has reached the highest "S" level standard. You should be well aware of the newly implemented contribution point system. With this biological sample, Su Hao can get 200,000 imperial gold coins, as well as a full 1,000 contribution points. That's the crux of the matter. ”

Wang Hu pulled over a chair and sat down, slowly stroked his chin, and nodded thoughtfully: "I did read the regulations related to the contribution you transmitted over last time, but I couldn't understand them carefully. To hear you say this, contribution is indeed a better thing than bonuses. Especially those nobles, they are already very rich, and the contribution is placed in their hands, which can be exchanged for more benefits...... I understand that those three nobles should have taken a fancy to the doctor's contribution points, so they stayed here and didn't leave. ”

"It's not as simple as you think."

Qiao Tianyu's voice became low and slow: "The imperial information network is unimpeded, especially within the military, almost all aristocratic families have their own intelligence sources. The news was circulated as soon as possible. The three nobles you mentioned belong to the Malken, the Rag, and the Clemen family. They got the news the earliest, and they were able to come to Konoha Town before the others. If I'm not mistaken, they should want to buy Su Hao's contribution points with a lot of money. Otherwise, those high-ranking guys would rather die than come to such a remote area. ”

Wang Hu thought for a few seconds and asked, "What about this siege of dark creatures?" Is it also related to doctors? ”

"I don't know."

Qiao Tianyu spread out his hands and shook his head: "No one can guess what those dark creatures are thinking?" Perhaps, they have coveted Konoha Town for a long time, and this is a long-planned attack. But I have to admit that the timing of the dark creatures is indeed just right. They blocked the passage between Konoha Town and the outside world, and we can't get in, and you can't get out. If it were in peacetime, the 441st Division would definitely not sit idly by and would definitely send reinforcements. Now, however, the nobles have joined forces to issue a blockade order, demanding that the 441st Division not respond for a week. ”

Hearing this, Wang Hu's rugged face twitched slightly. He pulled a cigarette out of his jacket pocket, lit it, and smoked it slowly.

The so-called "blockade order" is just an unwritten name among the nobility. It was not a paper written on paper, but a practice commonly known by the nobility, which was used specifically to close a particular situation. For example, in the stock market, collectively short or long a stock, or jointly promote the comprehensive selling price of a certain real estate plot. This kind of privately agreed power is often also applied to gangster fights and restrictions on certain external forces. In short, it was an invisible constraint on the premise of ensuring the common good agreed between the nobility. It is not bound by the law, does not leave evidence in the form of words, and stays at the level of oral conversation.

For example, right now, a mere baron, viscount, or even an earl can't order Division 441 to sit idly by and watch Konoha Town under attack by dark creatures. But if the number of nobles who expressed this will increases, three, five, ten...... The commander of the 441st Division had to face up to the strong demands from the aristocracy. After all, as many as a dozen nobles could decide the fate of a very large human city, and the number of residents in Konoha Town was only a few tens of thousands. Abandoning human settlements in vain and allowing a large number of civilians to be killed will surely be tried by the Imperial Military Tribunal. However, compared to the after-the-fact revenge from the angry aristocracy, even a general in charge of a division can only choose to acquiesce and accept the invisible "blockade order".

Wang Hu felt that something indescribable was surging wildly in his veins. He took a long puff of his cigarette, and his tone didn't know whether it was anger or sadness: "Oh my God! They must be crazy. In fact, for the sake of a thousand contributions, tens of thousands of civilians had to be abandoned. Everyone here is alive, alive! ”

Without waiting for Qiao Tianyu to answer, Wang Hu had already made a decision in his heart. He stroked his nose vigorously and said, "We have no reason to let tens of thousands of people accompany him to die for the sake of one person." As much as I like doctors, there are so many people who pay attention to him. We need reinforcements, or we won't be able to stop the dark creatures. So be it! Before the battle has even begun, I'm going to send someone to send the doctor out now. The maglev car is fast, and it can get out safely before the dark creatures can react. Anyway, the nobles need to contribute points, and they won't do anything to the doctors. Just like what you just said, Young Master Tianyu, they just want to talk about business with the doctor. ”

Qiao Tianyu on the screen frowned: "What, what I said is not clear enough?" Or did you fail to understand what I was trying to say? ”

Wang Hu looked puzzled and vigilant: "Isn't what I said wrong?" ”

"It's not what you think."

Qiao Tianyu said seriously: "I have already said that the key to the problem is not Su Hao himself, but those contribution points. As you yourself said, three nobles have already entered Konoha Town before the siege of the dark creatures. They were the nobles who first came into contact with Su Hao. This in itself means that things have changed, and those contribution points are likely to be no longer in Su Hao's hands, and he may have signed a contribution point transfer agreement. What does a thousand contribution points mean? According to the newly promulgated Imperial Law, nobles can concentrate up to ten contribution points. In other words, in the current situation, even if there are many lucky people like Su Hao, each nobleman can get no more than 10,000 contribution points. With these points, you can take out an earl, or even a marquis, without worrying about the laws of the Empire. ”

"And that's just the penal limits. There are many more, such as finance, such as power, as long as they have a large number of contribution points, the nobles can get more coveted things. If it weren't for the harsh regulations of ten people concentrated in one, the nobles would have robbed all the contribution points in the empire long ago. Think about it, a person who works hard until retirement can only get five points of contribution. In contrast, what is the concept of a thousand contribution points? If it were you, would you be willing to keep the opponent with contribution points alive? Or would you rather give up your interests, unite with others, and use the dark creatures to attack on a large scale, and reasonably and legally pit him to death? ”

The cigarette butt was released from Wang Hu's fingertips, fell to the ground, and flicked up again, splashing a scattered spark.

Wang Hu's face was pale, and he couldn't see any blood. He slumped into his chair, his eyes full of disbelief: "They, they want us dead? ”

"It's a question of fairness or not. If it weren't for this attack of the dark creatures, the other nobles would have had the opportunity to enter Konoha Town to negotiate with Su Hao. If he's smart enough, he'll be able to transfer those contribution points for the right price. Only in this way will you not become the target of public criticism, but transfer the target of hatred to the person who gets the contribution points. Now, three nobles are inside, and many more are being kept out. This is a tangible benefit, and no one will give it up in vain. If they don't die, who does? ”

Qiao Tianyu's feelings calmed down a little, but his eyes were full of pain: "Do you think I really sit back and watch like this?" Konoha Town was built by hard work, and I've put almost all of my heart and soul into it. But you have to understand that I am only a businessman, not a nobleman. I don't count the things in the circle of power, and I don't even have the qualifications to participate. I mobilized all the funds at my disposal and formed a mercenary team of more than 200 people. The Dark Hunters Guild also agreed to help, and there were more than three hundred hunters willing to fight. Now, the personnel and equipment are being assembled, and the actual departure will wait until at least two days later. I wonder if you'll be able to hold on? But even if we were to come, how many of us would be willing to take the initiative to attack the dark creatures? There are so many of them, in the thousands. And we...... No more than five hundred. ”

Wang Hu stared at the screen silently, wanting to read every trace of emotion on Qiao Tianyu's face. Gradually, Wang Hu's eyes revealed an incomparably strong killing intent.

"I can send the bodies of those three nobles out. Including doctors. ”

Wang Hu's meaning is obvious; Since the nobles don't want to see their contribution points fall into the hands of others, they act as the knife for killing. Only in this way can tens of thousands of residents in Konoha Town be saved.

"They won't believe it."

Qiao Tianyu smiled bitterly and shook his head repeatedly: "You are not a nobleman, and you will never understand the way of thinking of a nobleman." It doesn't matter whether Su Hao signed the contribution point transfer agreement or not, and it doesn't matter whether the three nobles get contribution points or not. Anyone in this world can get a telecommunicator, and all they need is a handwritten document to transmit the relevant content through the guò network. Of course, contribution points are only useful if you have them in your own hands. No one is so stupid that the most precious treasure is given to someone else in vain. No one will do this unless they have to. Moreover, the imperial law stipulates that the transfer of interests arising from coercion will be deemed invalid. In other words, even if you kill Su Hao now, as well as those three nobles, and spend your strength and time to send the corpses out, no one will agree with your approach. The nobles would only consider this a stopgap measure, and they would rather believe that the contribution points were transferred to someone else's name within a legitimate time, rather than that the contribution points had disappeared with the death of these people. They had to watch Konoha destroy Miè, even if Su Hao and those nobles were lucky enough to escape, they would be sniped by the private armed forces set up by other nobles on the periphery. In short, they know that there is no chance of earning those points. Instead of cheapening those guys who entered Konoha Town first, it would be better to turn this place into a dead land, and no one could get it. ”

Wang Hu clasped his arms in front of his chest, and his mouth was pursed into a gloomy and tight line.

"What about the families of the three nobles?"

Again, Wang Hu suddenly remembered something, and shouted loudly: "You said that they belong to three noble families. Their families are also the recipients of contribution points. Do you just watch your own people being killed, don't ask, and refuse to help? ”

"The strife within the aristocratic family is much more complicated than you think."

Qiao Tianyu almost sighed: "Contribution points can only belong to one person's name." Say too much and you may not understand. Think about it! Let's say you have a brother and your dad is a super-rich man with billions of assets. According to the will, only the best of you brothers will be eligible to inherit the family property. It's unfair that you were sent to a regular school when you were a child, while your brother went to a prestigious school. He is much better than you in terms of knowledge and ability, but you are just a vulgar mercenary. He can enjoy billions of fortunes, and you have to struggle for tomorrow's bread. ”

Wang Hu gritted his teeth vigorously, and even he didn't believe what he said: "Then, that's my brother after all." I, of course I accept it, and I can understand it. ”

"Oh? I can't see that you're quite magnanimous. ”

Qiao Tianyu's tone became narrow, with an undisguised sarcasm: "Then change the situation, your father is full of energy and has given birth to a lot of sons and daughters." The guy who is qualified to inherit the family property was born to a woman who was accepted as a concubine. He has been fighting since he was a child, he is not as good as you, he can eat, drink, prostitute and gamble everything, but he is loved by your father. You are honest, diligent, but not liked. A loser becomes the first in line to the throne, and you can only stand by and stare dryly, I don't believe you didn't have the idea of shooting that bastard with one shot. ”

The expression on Wang Hu's face was complicated. There was panic, there was confusion, and there was horror. He was noncommittal to Qiao Tianyu's words, and after a long time, he asked in a dull and dry manner: "We, are we really hopeless?" ”

Qiao Tianyu was very reluctant and nodded forcefully: "You can only rely on yourself." Maybe...... There is still the possibility of winning. ”

……

For an entire day, the people of Konoha Town were busy reinforcing fortifications, erecting weapons, and laying mines.

Wang Hu did not announce the news he received from Qiao Tianyu. Still in high spirits, he spoke almost yelling, smoking cigarettes uncontrollably, distributing all the weapons in the zài ammunition depot to the townspeople, and demanding that the mercenaries set up a large number of explosives in the town.

"Get a little more, blow up these **** dark bastards."

"Bring in all the gasoline and let them taste like they're being grilled over the flame."

"Give spirits to all, and tell them it's free, and it's all on my account."

People's emotions are high, and although there are still many corpses that have not been cleaned up, it does not hinder people's enthusiasm for work. Coupled with the fact that the weather was still cold, the corpses were quickly frozen and hard, so they were piled up directly on top of the sand barrier and became part of the fortifications.

Su Hao has been busy in the temporary hospital, and Garros has not broken his promise and participated in the treatment of the wounded. Although the mercenaries still looked at him with a wary look, the hostility had subsided considerably. I have to admit that the aristocracy who puts down his body and frame can indeed play a great role in these aspects.

Night gradually fell, and Su Hao finally finished the operation of the last person. He sat down in his chair and rested for more than ten minutes, his face was so pale that he didn't even have the strength to lift his arm to wipe his sweat.

The hard work has indeed paid off handsomely. Kenson and Mo Xingkui respectively put up Su Hao's arms and walked out of the room, Su Hao saw the wounded lying on the hospital bed and being treated by himself, full of gratitude, they smiled at him and saluted frequently.

"Doctor, you're a good person."

"I will never forget jì in my life, this life was picked up by the doctor for me."

"Such a good person should be blessed by the emperor and worthy of respect."

Reilly got a couple of captive hens from an old woman next door. The poor old woman had had been gnawed by a werewolf the night before. There was no feeding all day, and the hens were so hungry that they "cooed" and cried. Reilly was a good man, so he simply pinched the hen's neck and used a knife to completely solve the hens' pain one by one. He quickly washed and peeled the hens, and cooked them all in the simplest way. A strong aroma emanated from the soup pot, and Reilly sat next to him, assault rifle in his arms, staring at anyone who wanted to come over and get a piece of the pie. He unceremoniously claimed: Before Su Hao made a move, whoever dared to come over would shatter all the teeth in this glutton's mouth with one shot.

With a bowl of steaming chicken soup in his stomach, Su Hao felt that his whole person was alive again, his strength and physical strength were rapidly recovering, and he quickly became energetic.

The mercenaries sat around the fire, carrying their own soup bowls for dinner. Few people spoke, only the "snoring" sound of gulping down the soup.

"The situation seems to be more severe than expected."

Kenson swallowed a piece of chicken, leaned close to Su Hao's ear, and whispered, "The dark creatures' attack is very strong. They stayed outside without moving. This does not bode well. Maybe we'll all die here this time. ”

Su Hao shook his head calmly.

He disagreed with Kenson's statement.

There is no more sensitive storage than the black particle when it comes to danger. This time, however, they did not give warning. This means that although the battle that follows is fierce, the safety factor is very large. The person came to life again, and his strength and physical strength were rapidly recovering, and he soon became energetic.
