Chapter 36: A New Order
Favres's answer was absolutely not, there was not a single mid-level warrior in his escort, most of them were ordinary people. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have had to go with Baron Portinas and that nasty mage. But even if you add the two of them, it may not be much better than the Andur family, right?
The further he went, the more empty his heart became, and many of the things he had thought about to say were shocked by these images, and he seemed to be unable to find a place to start.
And Baron Portinas, who was walking beside him, also had a storm in his heart, because as a battle-hardened warrior, he couldn't tell how these people's wounds were caused.
These wounds are not large, but they are deep, and some of them have large gaps in the back.
There are often several holes in the same person's body, which indicates that the weapon is fast and can be hit several times before a person falls.
Except for a few people, the others did not even have sword wounds on their bodies. This means that none of them were killed in close combat.
He finally came to the conclusion that this is a long-range, fast and powerful secret weapon of the Tower of China. With such weapons, it is not surprising that the Andur family suffered a crushing defeat. Thinking of this, Baron Portinas had already crushed all the unwillingness that was left in his mind.
He now has only one conclusion: to oppose these people is to seek death.
On the other side, Master Prados had other thoughts in his heart, he had actually been interested in the mage of the Tower of China for a long time, but it was limited to a contract, and he had no chance to leave Suero. When news of this war came, his first instinct was to get out of this dangerous maelstrom, but now it looked like he had been swept up in it.
The first quality of any mage is to be able to analyze problems calmly, and now panic and resistance are useless, so maybe they should show sincerity in cooperation?
The Vortex Tower he came from was not a powerful magic tower, and the time and inheritance of spells were very limited, while the Tower of China was now renowned in the mage world for its rich heritage and advanced research, and if he could go to the past, it would be a good opportunity no matter how he looked at it.
He looked up at Favres, only to find that the latter looked distracted, not knowing what he was thinking.
Leo came to Shi Hao with the three family heads and quietly gave Shi Hao an OK gesture. Shi Hao knew that the dismount had played its due role.
Armed with a knife and wearing a bloody military uniform, he reiterated to the three of them what he had said to the Viscount's family with a grim expression.
But before he could finish speaking, two soldiers approached with a young man who was constantly struggling.
"Report to the head of the regiment, this captive almost wounded one of our brothers when he tried to escape. A cavalry warrior said.
Shi Hao recognized that this was one of the guards of the Andur family. He looked at Leo, who winked at him, Shi Hao suddenly understood that this matter must be indispensable to Leo's deliberate connivance, he glared at Leo and said, "You deal with it!"
Leo stepped forward and instructed the soldiers to tie the captive to a tree.
Shi Hao said to the three Favres: "We never kill senselessly, and we always treat prisoners preferentially, but there are always people who want to take advantage of our kindness. This person had already saved a life, but he didn't cherish it enough, because of the stupid thing he did, he lost it again. ”
Favreth couldn't help but ask, "Is this a show for us to see? It's not enough to intimidate us with a hundred corpses?
"Hmph, is it necessary?" Leo replied, "If we really want to intimidate you, it should be your scout's head." This fool just deserves it. But since you are here, let me show you our methods, which can help you to see the current situation. lest you think things that you ought not to have, and delay yourselves. ”
Favreth closed his mouth and watched as the men wrapped a rope around the young man's body. The young man cried out in terror, "I will not run away, please spare me." I didn't hurt anyone, please forgive me this time. ”
However, neither Shi Hao nor Leo responded to his pleas, and the two soldiers who tied him up did not say a word. The young man's voice became more and more hoarse and poignant, and listening to the ears of the three people, they felt a sense of restlessness.
Baron Portinas could not stand the atmosphere and asked, "Why did you tie him to a tree?" ”
Shi Hao said: "This person will be sentenced to death and shot." The tie-up is to keep him from moving. ”
Baron Portinas looked stunned, and he realized that this so-called "gun" was the secret weapon he was waiting for.
"Can you keep him shut? Don't let him talk over and over again. Favreth said.
Shi Hao said: "There is no need. There's nothing he can't say. ”
Leo summoned two soldiers, loaded his rifles, and stood three meters away from the prisoner. He said to the three Favres, "I know you're all curious about how we managed to defeat House Andur's team, and now you'll find out. ”
The young man watched as the soldiers raised their rifles and shouted hoarsely, "This is a demonic weapon, you use it to kill the captives indiscriminately, and the gods of nature will give you a sin!"
With Shi Hao's order, the two soldiers pulled the trigger continuously, and all ten bullets hit the young man's chest, his roar stopped abruptly, his head suddenly hung down weakly, his body was like a broken bag, and bright red blood gushed out of the wound.
The three of Favreth all looked at this scene with shocked expressions, and none of them recovered from the scene just now.
The simplest operation, the attack method that is so fast that it is not clear to see, and there is enough lethality, is this the confidence of the Tower of China?
Shi Hao said: "The defeat of the Andur family is only a few dozen cavalrymen with spears, and when our brigade arrives, it will be thousands of people using such weapons at the same time, you can imagine the power for yourself." ”
"Your Excellency Shi Hao, in fact, you don't need to say so much, I was going to obey your arrangement from the beginning. Master Prados immediately said, "I have long been yearning for the study of the Tower of China, but I have never had the opportunity to join you, but today I was stopped by you, in fact, it is my luck, I am not only willing to listen to your command, I am also willing to serve the Tower of China." ”
"You!" Favres was stunned by Prados's words.
"I'm speaking from my heart. Prados said with an unchanging face.
"I'm willing to follow your arrangement, I know now that the people in the city of Suero don't have a chance. If someone else is stopped in the back, I'm willing to persuade them to obey. Baron Portinas said with a sigh, looking at Favreth and shaking his head gently.
"I, I...... All right. Favreth lowered his head, "I'll cooperate too, you can arrange it." ”
Shi Hao said: "Don't worry, as long as you cooperate well, after we establish a new order in Suero, there will be a place for each of you." ”
