Chapter 115: Rise
Downton ignored the sentry miners and continued to patrol the floor.
In the corridor, the thugs had been driven out, holding their heads in their hands, squatting on the ground facing the wall, they heard footsteps and subconsciously looked up.
Some of them were seeing Downton for the first time, and they couldn't help but be surprised to see him so young, and the buzz of whispers rang out.
"Shut up and don't speak. "The cronies yelled to maintain order, and some of the abused people took the opportunity to beat them.
Downton looked at the staircase!
The sound of footsteps was messy, mixed with violent iron clashes and screams, and then a group of miners he brought with him were driven out, each hanging their own colors, and they were in disarray.
"Which mongrel is spreading wild in Building One, don't look at what place this is!" a mine tyrant rushed into the corridor with a machete in his hand, and led more than fifty of his men to beat the miners, slashing blood all over the place.
There is no shortage of die-hards at any time, not to mention how these guys, who are used to being arrogant in the dagger mine on weekdays, can tolerate being trampled on the head by others.
"What are you doing in a daze? Let's go together!" a young cronie shouted, and he was the first to pounce, but not many people followed.
Downton pursed the corners of his mouth and showed a self-deprecating smile, in addition to doing all this to change his own situation, he really wanted to do something for the low-status miners, but unfortunately they were too uncompetitive, and the psychology of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil had been deeply rooted.
"Haha, a bunch of soft eggs!" Seeing this scene, the mine tyrant became even more imposing, and even the thugs who were squatting on both sides were ready to move.
Downton noticed the change in the atmosphere, he knew that many eyes were on him, and he must not panic at this time, otherwise the resistance would expand rapidly.
"Jackson, give you a minute to knock them over!" Downton kept walking. Moving on, he waved his hand casually, and the ghouls immediately pounced.
The corridor was narrow, and the demon servant wrapped in heavy armor charged, crushing it like a tsunami of steel.
The crouching thugs quickly got up and pressed against the wall. Some of the guys who couldn't dodge were knocked down directly, followed by the boots stepped on, and let out a wail.
The mine tyrant and his gang hurriedly retreated, and in the face of this momentum, they did not dare to resist if they lent them the courage of a dragon beast.
It was quiet again, and the thugs were honestly squatting.
"Overseer, something is wrong. The sentry miner raised his voice, and saw that Downton ignored him, and became an ant in a hot pot mountain. He shouted even louder.
"Shut up, I'm not deaf!" Downton shook his hand, and he knew what was going on without asking, "Aren't the overseers coming?
The sentry miner covered his cheeks and looked embarrassed, seeing that there were more than 500 people on the other side, he was indeed afraid.
"It seems to be a bit of a general. Homer was pleased with Downton's performance.
The actions of the sentry miners made their own miners nervous, but Downton's composure calmed them down.
"It's time to get the ghouls with steel claws as soon as possible. Otherwise, the lethality is too small. Downton inspected the combat power of the demon servants and quickened his pace slightly.
He's going to face the Overseer in the open space outside Building One. In addition to defeating them to make more miners see the reduction in their prestige, they can also avoid being besieged in buildings with limited terrain formations.
Once a leader stands up, these seemingly respectful thugs will definitely resist, and it will definitely be a big trouble at that time.
"It's still necessary to build a guard that is like an arm. Homer suggested.
"I am a civilian and am not qualified to form a private army. "Downton was depressed, it was too difficult to become a nobleman. Even if you spend money to buy it, it will be a big number, and it is only a title, and there is no actual territory.
"Then try to climb up and solve the problem of the mine. It will definitely be able to get the favor of Dawfink, and when the time comes, he can mediate between them. "Whether it's smashed with money or the threat of force, it will definitely make him succumb." ”
As Downton reached the first floor, an overseer rushed in with a large crowd.
"Bastard, do you know whose territory this is, who told you to go wild here?" the overseer roared, especially when he saw two rows of thugs standing against the wall in the hallway, like students who had been physically punished, he couldn't understand how these guys could be frightened by a young man.
Downton didn't speak, and waved his index finger.
"Charge, get them out!" Jackson grabbed his crossbow and pulled the trigger with his hand.
The bolt grazed the overseer's head and drove into the shoulder of one of the hapless creatures behind.
This time, no one hesitated, and they all charged with the ghouls, and a team of 100 people crowded the hallway one after another, looking like a mighty force.
Without waiting for the overseer to give the order, the people he brought with him hurriedly retreated.
All the windows in the nearby dormitory buildings were open, and they were crowded with people, all watching, they were still regretting not seeing the situation in the building just now, and the overseer side was like the sea water gushing out at low tide in the evening.
"Downton, Chief Ram will definitely kill you. The overseer was so angry that he quickly pulled a cronie and told him to call someone.
"I'm inspecting the dormitory and cleaning up the mine's environment, do you have any complaints?" the hundred-man team parted a gap, and Downton walked out, "By the way, I want to ask, what's going on with the private torture cell on the top floor?"
Downton's voice was loud so that the onlookers could hear it.
"Can you handle it?" growled the overseer.
"I'm an overseer, why can't I take care of it?" Downton deliberately looked puzzled.
The overseer was dumbfounded, did he say that the order issued by the Dophink did not count? Even if they no longer had status, it would be okay to clean themselves up.
"By the way, I just got a few witnesses, and they said that in the past few years, you have tortured nearly 1,000 miners to death in the torture chamber. Downton exaggerated the numbers and then deceived the other party, "You have committed enough crimes to be sent to the gallows a hundred times." ”
"Impossible, how can there be so many?" the overseer was anxious, and he was a little unscrupulous, but when he finished speaking, he heard a huge uproar all around.
The miners all looked at him in shock, although they had heard some gossip that was true or false, but there was no evidence to support it, so they listened to it as after-dinner entertainment, but the words of the overseer began to make them believe it.
"Oh, that means you've tortured some people, who gave you the rights?" Downton exclaimed, "it's too much to collect a tax on ore, and now you still treat people like dogs, do you still have any humanity?"
"Don't listen to him, it's not like that, we haven't tortured anyone. "The overseer is in a hurry, if this news reaches Ram's ears, he will be absolutely finished.
"It's all a lie, so you tell me what's going on with those cripples?Is the miner who was fighting in the ring a masochist?" Downton grabbed Gotze and pulled him to his side, "He was almost torn apart by your hounds, how do you explain it?"
Downton's questioning made the miners around him angrier.
"No, that's not the case!" said the overseer, "don't listen to his nonsense, Downton, shut up for me, or the master will kill you." ”
"Oh, even an overseer like me dares to kill, don't you even take ordinary miners seriously?"
"Well done, I actually know how to incite the people!" Homer laughed as Downton was aggressive, leaving the overseer in a mess.
"Not really. The overseer was still arguing, but the leader of the overseer who arrived was whipped on the head with a black short stick, and fainted on the spot.
"Rubbish!" the leader spat out thick phlegm, walked over to Downton and stood still, threatening viciously, "Boy, don't get an inch!"
Downton's answer was simple, he picked up the bat and slapped it hard in the mouth of the overseer.
The leader screamed, and a mouthful of blood mixed with broken teeth spurted out, staining the ground red.
"Kill him!" the leader thought of Downton and said to do it, and before he could shout angrily, the second stick arrived and slapped him on the chin.
The leader's cronies wanted to rush to the rescue, but unfortunately the cunning Jackson was faster, a crossbow arrow was fired, and an unlucky ghost was overturned, this kind of murderous ruthlessness calmed them, and they couldn't help but slow down, and when they wanted to charge again, the demon servants took the lead, followed by a team of 100 miners who had already swarmed up, blocked them, and scuffled together.
The leader of the Overseer fell to the ground, shrinking into a shrimp shape, and Downton's boots slammed into the thick, thick-skinned parts of his body.
The onlookers were suppressed by Downton's strength, you must know that there are only five overseers in the entire mine, except for Ram, who is the most powerful, but now they are pressed to the ground and beaten by Downton, like a dead dog on the side of the road, how can there be the previous domineering majesty.
"It's amazing, this kid's rise is irresistible. ”
"He can definitely be a fierce rival to the chief worker, and if Ram is not careful, he will capsize in the gutter. ”
"I'm afraid Dafphon didn't expect Downton to be so strong and find a good helper, and now he probably woke up laughing from his dream. ”
In addition to admiring Downton, some of the onlookers were jealous, he was too young, and now that he has this status, his future is bound to be limitless.
They began to regret that if they had been ruthless and had recommended themselves to Dophinck, how could Downton have a chance to come out now?
"Okay, the goal has been achieved, and you can withdraw. Downton finished his activities and left the dormitory, "Homer, I'm going to ask Dophink for a leave of absence, and I'm going to Morningfog tomorrow." ”
"Do you want to go to the Wolf & Spice grocery store?"
"Well, didn't she agree to sell us some ultra-rare dragon-slaying class other improved potions?" Downton was curious, but more than that, he wanted to see the shopwoman again, he liked the other person's voice very much, it sounded very comfortable.
"Dauponck would have agreed. Homer thought of one more thing, and couldn't help laughing, "Liszt has taken you to the dagger mines, ready to make you desperate, and if you are seen alive, you may explode your lungs." (To be continued......)
