Chapter 6: Shock! (II)
Rocky never imagined that he had only been walking for a while, and things would turn out like this.
Perolo and Vos, plus the captured El, and the officials in Thunderhawk City are all here, what are they going to do? And those four guards who pointed their swords at Lilia, what are they doing, forcing the palace or rebelling!?
Enraged by the sight of Rocky, he turned his gaze away from Voss and Perolo to the four guards who were pointing their swords at Lilia.
"What are you going to do, and you can't rebel?"
Without waiting for the guards in front of him to react, Rocky aimed his palm at one of them, and then gathered a magic bullet and hit it in an instant!
Magic Bullet, the most basic magic attack of the Sky Demon Warframe, uses magic energy to form a pure magic ball, which can be shot like a cannonball, and has the same power as a cannonball.
With a bang, the magic bullet landed on the guard's chest, and the guard who was hit flew out before he could scream!
Wearing the Empty Demon Battle Armor, Rocky is now a fourth-level warrior and a third-level ritual, and it can be said that there is no pressure to face these second-level guards, and a magic bullet can make a guard fall to the ground.
When the long, when the long, when the long......
This scene made the remaining three guards hurriedly throw their long swords on the ground like a hot potato, and all of them knelt in front of Rocky.
"Lord Castle Lord, spare your life! It's not that we want to rebel, it's Peroro who made us do this!"
"My lord, Peroro asked us to do it, it's none of our business!"
Kneeling in front of Rocky, the three guards kept begging for mercy, and immediately pushed the responsibility on Perolo, as if they were afraid that if they were slow to speak, Rocky would throw another magic bullet.
As for Perolo, who was mentioned by them, he was already stupid at this time, and he looked at Rocky blankly, his eyes were rounder than a cowbell, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Sky Demon Warframe...... Air Demon Warframe...... How is this possible......"
Seeing that Rocky was wearing an air demon armor and knocked over a guard when he came up, Peroro's legs trembled with fright, and he almost sat on the ground.
He never expected such a result, how could Rocky have a set of air demon armor?
Compared with the frightened Perolo, Voss on the side was much calmer, but even he was slightly stunned after seeing Rocky, and the smile on his face also froze for a moment, but soon he returned to his original appearance.
Rocky's various performances are well seen by Rocky, and these performances are also in line with Rocky's impression of the two: Perolo is a stupid pig, but Voss is cunning like a fox.
So Rocky didn't pay attention to Peroro at all, but changed his gloomy face and looked at Voss with a smile: "Your Excellency Vos, what did you want me to explain just now?"
"Don't get me wrong, it's the old man who lost his words. ”
Hearing Rocky's words, Voss saluted him with an unchanged expression, and then said unhurriedly: "The old man didn't dare to let the adults explain anything, but he just wanted to know what crime Captain El had committed?"
Voss said this neither humbly nor arrogantly, showing respect for Rocky, but also saying what he wanted to ask, unless Rocky wanted to deliberately find fault, there was really nothing wrong with it.
However, there is no need to find fault with Ell's affairs, Rocky said directly: "Captain El sold the population of Thunderhawk City without permission, so I arrested him for further interrogation, is there any problem?"
Returning to the city lord's seat and sitting down, Rocky said casually, and as for this, Voss asked no more.
Seeing that Voss no longer spoke, Rocky looked at Perolo and asked coldly, "Perolo, did you let these guards threaten Lilia?"
"It's a misunderstanding, I, I just, I want ......."
Kneeling on the ground with a plop, Perolo kept begging for mercy, but he couldn't even make up a reason, so he had to secretly look at Vos, as if he wanted Voss to intercede for him.
Interestingly, Rocky also looked at Vos at this time, and also asked:
"Lord Vos, Captain El trafficked in human beings, and Perolo was guilty, what do you think these two people should do?"
Rocky's words seem to be very casual, but in fact, they are to find out Voss's attitude, because in his heart, the most feared guy is this Vos!
In Rocky's eyes, Al and Perolo didn't need him to care too much, these two didn't even need to use any means, a set of air demon armor was enough to clean them up, and this was indeed the case.
But Voss is different, because he is the only one of the three who has real power, and this real power can't even be shaken by Rocky!
Thunder Eagle City is very small, so small that there is basically no industry to speak of, and the more than 1,000 residents living in the city can only rely on two means to make a living, one is farming, and the other is weaving.
Generally speaking, every Sky City has a large area of arable land around it to solve the food problem, and the same is true for Thunder Eagle City, most of the city's residents depend on the arable land around the city to make a living, but because it is a small Sky City, even if there is arable land, it cannot feed all the residents.
This gave rise to the city's second industry: textiles.
The residents of Thunderhawk City relied on this method of importing yarn from other Sky Cities, spinning it into cloth through the women of the city, and then selling it to buy food with the proceeds from the sale of the cloth.
As the city's treasurer, Voss not only controls the city's finances, but more importantly, he also has close ties with the various chambers of commerce that import yarn!
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that if Thunder Eagle City does not have the financial officer of Vos, then the city's textile industry will be paralyzed immediately, and those residents who rely on textiles to make a living will be starved to death!
This is the scary thing about Vos, Rocky can rely on Thunder to clean up Al and Perolo, but he can't treat him like this, because this person is too important to Thunderhawk City.
That's why Rocky asks Voss at such times to find out his attitude towards him.
But somewhat to his surprise, Voss replied very quickly at this time, as if he had already thought about it:
"My lord, human trafficking is a felony, and the mastermind is to be put to death, and all the families and other participants are expelled from the city and exiled to the land. ”
"The following crimes are also serious crimes, and capital crimes are forgiving, and the principal offenders and their families are to be expelled from the city and exiled to the land. ”
In the face of Rocky's question, Voss's expression did not change at all, and he spoke.
"You!
After he finished speaking, not only Rocky was stunned, but Peroro, who was expecting him to intercede for him, turned blue and was so angry that he couldn't speak.
This old fox...... It's too decisive, right?
Such an answer made Rocky shudder, he remembered very well that although the Voss in front of him did not deceive himself like Al, he had absolutely no respect for himself, and more ignored and ignored himself, the city lord.
Judging from what he said just now, Voss is obviously drawing a line with Al and Perolo, and even helping El get rid of these two!
Could it be that Voss has already recognized himself as the lord of the city?
Looking at Voss standing with his hands down, Rocky couldn't guess the old fox's thoughts, but since the other party had already taken the initiative to help him speak, he naturally didn't need to be reserved and scruples, and said directly:
"In that case......
As he spoke, he looked at the three guards kneeling on the ground: "You three, from today onwards, Lilia will command, now go and press Peroro to the prison to wait for treatment, if something happens in the process, I will take you to blame!"
"Yes, yes...... Thank you, sir!"
"Thank you, Lord of the City!"
The three guards didn't even think about it, so they immediately went to arrest Peroro, who was still Peroro's guards just now, but now they are going to press Peroro to prison.
Although these guards were hired with Peroro, they were only hired to do so, but they didn't have to fight for him at all, especially after seeing the horror of Rocky.
And when Perolo was pressed away, Rocky looked at Vos:
"Your Excellency Vos, there's nothing to do, you go back first. ”
"Yes. ”
With a word of agreement, Voss bowed slightly to Rocky, turned around and left the city lord's hall, what was it like when he came, and what it was like when he left, as if nothing had happened just now.
Watching his figure walk out of the hall, Rocky breathed a long sigh of relief, he really didn't expect things to develop like this, fortunately Voss didn't challenge himself just now, otherwise with his identity and importance, he would really be difficult to deal with.
However, it is thanks to what happened just now that the two tumors of El and Perolo were removed together, which was a real surprise for Rocky, and it can be said that it saved him a lot of trouble.
"Well, I didn't do well just now, right?"
This result made Rocky feel very good, and turned to Lilia and asked, like a child asking for praise, where is the majesty just now.
His behavior made Lilia stunned, but she still nodded, and then looked at Rocky: "You seem to be ...... It seems to have changed......
"Of course it has changed, and it will get better and better. ”
Haha laughed twice, and Rocky instructed Lilia: "You go and gather fifty guards, arrest all the people who returned with Al before, and dispose of those who dare to resist, and then take people to the airport to meet me." ”
"Understood. ”
With a word of yes, Lilia handed El over to Rocky and hurried out of the hall.
After Lilia left, Rocky glanced at Al and smiled, "Captain Al, let's go to land again." ”
"Good, good...... Listen to the ...... of adults."
Having witnessed the scene just now, where does the current El have the courage to say no, at this time he has deeply understood one thing, that is, the current Thunderhawk City is about to change.
