Episode 7 The Gap Between Mortals and Cultivators
Grant's death was a huge blow to all the people of the Autonomous Mission, and no one could accept that their leader died at the hands of the cultivators. Everyone www.biquge.info felt extremely sad and angry, but there was nothing they could do, because it was the powerful cultivators who killed Grant, and there were more disasters waiting for them.
After the departure of the Li cultivators, the people of the Autonomous Regiment packed up Grant's body with great grief and held a solemn funeral. Lin Da and others decided to bury him in a mountainous area with excellent scenery on the outskirts of Xiaoyu County, which is far away from the new area and urban area of Xiaoyu County, and the starry sky is bright at night, and you can clearly see the various galaxies in the night sky. The choice of this place as Grant's resting place is also a sign of people's sorrow, hoping that he can always look up at the starry sky here, and maybe see their hometown - the earth.
After dealing with this, that night, in a meeting room in the Blue Star Camp, all the members of the Convention gathered again, but this time, there was no more Grant involved.
"Woo... My God... Why is this happening? Why was the president killed like this, those cultivator nobles... Why would they be so brutal and brutal!Kill people when they say they kill!" Sonia was still basking in the great grief of Grant's death.
"Because they never see us as human beings! We are just their tools!" the always mild-mannered Arden now clenched his hands into fists, his eyes red.
"Those abominable bastards! Devils! they will get their retribution!" said Captain Modern angrily, slamming his fists on the table.
"Not only did they kill Grant, but now they want to swallow everything we have... It's disgusting!, we must not agree!" Dr. Connell said angrily.
"We're going to get revenge!" Schroeder slapped the table hard, brandished his pistol, and shouted angrily, "For President Grant!
"Yes, fight with them!" shouted Ivanov, his face flushed with rage, his beard straight.
Hearing the voice of revenge, the others also shouted excitedly, and slapped the table in agreement, only Linda and a few others were silent. Although she also felt great sadness about Grant's departure, hearing the words of everyone shouting for revenge, Linda suddenly felt that something was wrong. He had always been a very rational person, and he would not do anything that would affect his judgment because of great joy and sorrow, so he could only endure the pain of Grant's departure now, and seriously think about how they should survive the biggest crisis that the Autonomous Group has faced since coming to the other world.
After waiting for everyone's emotions to be almost vented, Linda finally spoke, and he asked Schroeder very seriously: "Schroeder, if you really want to declare war with those cultivators, what are your plans? How can we fight them?"
Schroeder was stunned for a moment, then thought about it seriously, and then said: "Of course, it depends on the Blue Star Army! Although the number is only about 1,000 people, they are all well-cultivated under my training, and the most important thing is that they completely obey our leadership! Moreover, we can also recruit troops and horses to expand the team several times! Moreover, our equipment is not weak, and those rifles, heavy machine guns, and mountain artillery can kill and injure those cultivators." As long as everyone has the same hatred and hatred, they can completely compete with those cultivators. At that time, even if you can't beat Licheng, you can still lay down a territory, and you won't have to be oppressed by them anymore! Lao Tzu is fed up with the bird's anger of those bastards!"
Schroeder's words were immediately echoed by many people, and many were even really ready to fight.
But when Lin Da heard this, he shook his head lightly and said: "But I don't think this is okay, I am not an elixir and destroy my prestige, but everyone should not forget, what kind of world is this! We are in the Gui Kingdom of the Terran Continent, which is a country ruled by the Xiuzhen royal family and nobles! They also have an army, and they are stronger than us! If we raise an army to resist, it will be tantamount to confronting the entire Gui Kingdom cultivators." Not to mention how much chance of victory there is with our strength, if a war really starts, the Li clan can use the pretext of suppressing the rebellious mortals to use a large number of troops against us, and even the royal family's Xiuzhen army may intervene. We're really going to be finished. β
Schroeder disagreed with Linda's point of view, and said, "It turns out that you are worried that we will not be able to deal with those cultivators. But don't forget, it's not like we haven't fought against the cultivators, but we didn't defeat them with our guns and cannons on the earth, or on the Ocean, or against the pirate monks? As long as we defeat the Li clan and show our strength, and then find a way to negotiate peace with the royal family, maybe we can become a new force in the Gui Kingdom!"
Schroeder's bold idea suddenly made everyone's eyes shine. If it was really as he said, then the Blue Star Autonomous Group would have completely broken the pattern of the rule of the cultivators of the Terran Continent, and had gone from an insignificant small group to a force occupied by the Gui State.
However, if you imagine it, you must have strength to make it possible, and Linda knows very well that the Blue Star Autonomous Group will never be able to do it without this strength. He shook his head and said categorically, "This is impossible! We don't have this ability! You don't know those cultivators! They are by no means as easy to deal with as you think!"
Schroeder wanted to argue again, when suddenly a voice floated from outside the door, which immediately startled everyone: "Linda is right! This voice came into everyone's ears, and it seemed to be very clear, as if it still had a trace of mana, which made people sound comfortable in their ears, and unconsciously seemed to be controlled by their minds, and they couldn't help but echo it.
Everyone panicked suddenly, because this voice was obviously the voice of a cultivator, what they were discussing was a conspiracy to rebel against the Li clan, if it was known to outsiders, wouldn't it immediately lead to annihilation?!
In an instant, everyone in the room reacted, and almost at the same time, they took out their weapons and aimed them at the doors, windows, and any other places where outsiders might appear. Linda even took out the Desert Eagle pistol in one hand and the knife magic weapon in the other, looking vigilantly in the direction where the voice came from.
The door of the conference room opened with a bang, and a person dressed in a green robe walked in calmly, greeted by more than a dozen swarthy gun barrels and six magic weapons ready to fire, but after seeing the appearance of the person who came, everyone asked in surprise: "Immortal Master Shen, why are you?"
The person who came was Shen Hao, the guardian monk of Xiaoyu County, who came here at some point, and actually heard everyone's conversation.
Lin Da clenched the weapon in his hand and stepped forward to ask, "Brother Shen Hao, how did you get in?" Didn't the guards outside the door see you?"
Shen Hao shook his head and said honestly: "Of course they didn't see me, you know, I am a cultivator, there are many ways to hide from you to come in quietly, and it is definitely not something that you mortals can detect." β
It seems that these words were deliberately said to Schroeder and the others, which made the people who were still trying to agitate for war against the Li clan just now suddenly calm down a lot. Schroeder was silent for a moment, then stepped forward and asked, "I don't know if Immortal Master Shen is here, what do you have to say to us?"
Shen Hao glanced at him and said very sincerely: "I came to warn you that you must never easily confront the nobles, this is a very dangerous thing! To tell the truth, this is completely death!"
Schroeder's face changed, and he asked, "Why? Do you also think that we can't beat the cultivators?"
Shen Hao nodded and said, "Yes, haven't you seen the power of the cultivators? Under the power of their attack array, although you are armed with weapons, you don't even have the slightest ability to resist, doesn't this mean anything?"
Schroeder was unable to answer a word, but he did not give up, and said: "That's just because of their sudden attack! If we confront them head-on, maybe we won't be able to defeat them." β
Shen Hao shook his head and said, "Oh, really, you still don't give up, since that's the case, then you can try it on me with a pistol!" Shen Hao sneered, and actually made such a request.
Schroeder was taken aback at first, but seeing that Shen Hao looked very serious, he finally decided to give it a try, he had always believed that human weapons could completely defeat Xiuzhen's spells, and this was a perfect opportunity to prove that his idea was correct.
The two came to the middle of the room, separated by ten meters from each other as if they were dueling, and the others stood from a distance to watch, and Linda was selected to be the referee of the competition, and when he saw that the two were ready, he immediately announced the start.
As soon as the words fell, Schroeder quickly pulled out his pistol, and his movements were not inferior to those of the fast gunners in western cowboy movies. But just when he was about to aim, he found that there was no Shen Hao on the other side. He screamed that it was not good, and he didn't know where to aim at the pistol he was holding.
Just as he hesitated, a palm suddenly slapped from behind his back, and Schroeder then felt a numbness in the back of his body, and suddenly lost consciousness. Turning his head, Shen Hao was actually standing behind him, with a palm gently resting on his shoulder, attached to a mana that could penetrate Shi Luode's body at any time.
"You lost. Shen Hao said lightly.
Everyone present didn't notice how Shen Hao appeared behind Schroeder in an instant, everything happened in an instant, this kind of incredible behavior is by no means something that mortals can do. Shen Hao revealed this strange skill, and suddenly made everyone who was still shouting for war just now completely calm down at this time.
"I lost!" Schroeder was silent for a while, then finally took a long breath and said crisply. But his heart was full of chagrin and remorse, hating himself for not being able to do anything and not being able to avenge Grant.
"Do you understand the gap between mortals and cultivators now?" Shen Hao said lightly, "The ability of cultivators is not what you can imagine now. If the Li really wanted to deal with you, I am afraid that your gathering here tonight would have been known to them long ago. In fact, they don't need to send so many monks to deal with you, they only need to send a few monks of my level to kill you one by one, and they don't need to send their family guards at all. Although your weapons are powerful, in the face of the cultivators' strange combat methods, there is no chance to strike at all. So I still advise you, don't hit a stone with an egg!"
Seeing the power that Shen Hao had just displayed, the people of the Convention Guild truly realized the horror of the cultivators, and realized how naΓ―ve and ridiculous the idea of declaring war on the Li clan was.
Schroeder was still unwilling, and asked again: "Immortal Master Shen, can't we really confront those nobles? Do we really want to sit back and let them confiscate our property and manipulate our life and death?"
Shen Hao was silent for a moment, sighed lightly, and said helplessly: "I know that you hate the domineering of the Li clan very much, and you also want to avenge Elder Grant very much, but you must not only know yourself clearly, but also see the Li clan clearly, if you can get in touch with the cultivation world more, I am afraid there will be no idea of fighting them." You must know that the reason why cultivators are called land immortals is because they have supernatural powers, all kinds of powerful spells, magic weapons, magic circles, talismans... All kinds of cultivators with different magical powers... Those who have cultivated to the top level can destroy the heavens and the earth with a single move! It is definitely not something that you mortals can imagine!"
Shen Hao's words made everyone both helpless and discouraged. As he said, the current autonomous group has absolutely no strength to fight against the cultivators.
At this time, Lin Da suddenly asked, "Immortal Master Shen, since this is the case, please show us a clear path! What should we do?!"
Shen Hao thought about it, sighed deeply, and finally said helplessly: "It's been now... I'm afraid I can only do what the Li clan says!"
