Chapter 484: Are You 484 Stupid?
The chase ended with Langdon calling a halt.
This feeling is very unpleasant, as if you are chasing your enemy, and your enemy suddenly holds a knife to his neck, and says to you very hard, "You chase me again!
And you really don't dare to chase it.
This feeling is very aggrieved.
In this way, the Ethan Hawke family still killed nearly five hundred people, plus what they fought back desperately to kill, adding up to more than six hundred.
And from those soldiers of the Ethan Hawke family, sure enough, they all found the kind of sacrificial utensils like a small pot.
However, there was no point in seizing them now, and the 600 or so had already been absorbed as sacrifices - the sacrificial vessels were actually found from the remains of the clothing they had left behind after they had been absorbed.
A battle in which thousands of people should have participated in the battle, and one side was bound to be completely wiped out, and in the end, only so many people died, in fact, it was enough to make people breathe a sigh of relief.
But Langdon's mood was not at all.
The Bedasta family has already done this, which means that they have really let it go, and their purpose in doing so is obviously to summon a big guy, one who is even stronger than the pseudo-legendary demon Babalov, enough to solve the big guy who is in great trouble with Langdon!
Now that they had decided to do it, they certainly wouldn't stop, and now that the Ethan Hawke forces hadn't been able to get the sacrifices they expected, they didn't have many options to make.
Either send troops to the Hoflan family and sacrifice the people of their family.
Or, you can only use the civilians of the original Chivita family as sacrifices, but most of the civilians there have been rescued by Langdon, and if there are not enough people left, it is likely that the civilians of the Ethan Hawke family will also suffer!
Unscrupulous means to achieve an end are really common in the underground world, but in the experience of Langdon's two lifetimes, it is the first time that he has seen such a situation of not taking human life seriously at all and sacrificing thousands or even tens of thousands of people at will!
"Our actions are going to be accelerated. Langdon looked at one of his men sitting around the long table and spoke.
Now he is completely different from the embarrassment when he first came to this world, and there are four system-rewarded talents on the left and right, including Hogg, Zhu Lingqi, Lu Zijing, and Lao Wang.
Further afield, there are five dark elves, including the lizardman leader Kazvito, the Caterina Tior sisters, and Larry, as well as Alfred the Lion of Gula and his lieutenant dragon.
Well, there's also a bard who is temporarily crippled and can carry the pseudo-legendary demon.
Such a lineup is enough to make a surrounding family force, and even his three sisters feel envious.
"The other party sent a force of 2,000 people, according to that scale, if that battle finally happened, the death toll should reach 3,000 or even more, such a sacrifice scale is enough to summon another pseudo-legendary demon Barbalov. ”
Hearing that name, several people who had experienced that battle couldn't help but glance at each other.
Babalov's strength is beyond doubt, if it weren't for Lao Wang's sudden breakthrough in that juncture to ascend to the Grandmaster, they would all die at the hands of Babalov.
Langdon continued: "But what they want to summon is obviously not another Babalov, we have all killed one, what's the use of another one? So, it is almost certain that what they are going to summon is a real legendary demon!"
That's right, legendary!
Tyrant Sauron is not without legendary demons, and Barbarov was able to become one of the three major legions not because of his strength, but because of his ability to lead troops.
In terms of strength, any of the legendary demons under the tyrant Sauron's command with more than double digits can be much stronger than Barbalov!
Pseudo-legend and legend, the difference between one word and the difference is very different!
Hearing what Langdon said, the four Hoggs were relatively calm, but the other people's reactions were greater, and their faces sank in an instant.
Katarina, in particular, had a gloomy face and bowed her head slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Hey, hey, come back to your senses. Langdon shouted at Katerina, "Is it really okay for you to put your thoughts on your face so clearly? I'm still here, even if you want to break away from me and break off from me, you have to be a little more restrained, right?"
Caterina's face changed again, and she opened her mouth as if she wanted to explain, but Langdon was obviously not ready to listen to her explanation, and continued: "Of course, I also said that they were just preparing to summon. ”
"Now that we've ruined their plan to collect sacrifices through war, and with the fact that there aren't many people on the Bedasta side, it's not so easy for them to gather sacrifices that can summon a legendary demon. ”
"So. Langdon raised a finger in front of him and said, "What we need most now is time!"
"So what are we sitting here for, let's do it!" said Caterina, pouting.
Langdon glanced at her and didn't say anything, he didn't care about this obviously angry retort.
He was more concerned about Katerina's reaction when he heard the Bedasta family summoning the legendary demon, and Caterina's reaction when Tior reported the news to him a little earlier.
The former means that Caterina doesn't have enough confidence in him, and is even thinking about whether to get out of him if the enemy really summons the legendary demon.
And the latter, because of Tior's anger at her for hiding the news, which is a kind of anger for betrayal, and this anger will be born, which means that she does not, or at least to a certain extent, does not really regard Langdon as the master, and subconsciously puts herself on the same level as Langdon, so after discovering that the other party does not treat herself as "honest and complete" as Langdon, this anger is born.
To sum up, her loyalty to Langdon is far from enough, and even none at all, if it weren't for the existence of a slave contract, maybe she would have broken away or even betrayed Langdon.
With the existence of a slave contract, loyalty is guaranteed, and at least Katarina's reactions are at best a reaction and will not come true.
But the slave contract is not completely safe, as far as Langdon knows, there are still people in this world who can break the slave contract, and there is more than one.
Thinking of this, Langdon tilted his head slightly, looked at Caterina, and spoke.
"Action, how to act?"
"Do you know how the summoning of the Legendary Demon has progressed?"
"Do you know what the Bedasta family is going to do to collect the rest of the sacrifices?"
"Taking a step back, do you know if the Bedasta family has sent more troops from the main family?"
"I don't know any of this, what are you doing?"
"Also, don't forget your identity, is there anyone you are talking to your master like that?"
"I used to look at those troops and felt that you had improved, at least you already had the most basic abilities of the head of the family, but now it seems that I have misjudged you. ”
"Say anything without using your brain, you 484 stupid?"
An unceremonious reprimand.
This is the first time that Caterina has been reprimanded like this by Landon in the course of her relationship with Langdon.
She didn't seem to react at all, just staring at Langdon fixedly, frozen there.
After a long time, she cowardly spoke, "I'm sorry, big ...... My lord. ”
Then, Langdon's side......
"Damn, what's going on?"
Langdon looked in front of him with some surprise, and suddenly the column representing Caterina's loyalty on the interface of the lord system that popped up suddenly jumped from 0 to 1.
......
