971 Book Crown Heroes
c_t; For the head of our Dao Guard, Zhou Shu still admires it a little, anyway, he can't let him find death. Read the full text of the latest chapter. The update is so fast. For such idiots, who insist on their own bottom line, a certain amount of respect is a must.
After 'negotiating' with the people of the Luyun Clan, Master Zhou had to go around the city again to find the remaining team members.
He had already tried to find it yesterday, although he had only done it on the way to the duel. He still has to go today, and he's still on the way, he wants to find out what happened to our Dao Guardian Band. It's not just to satisfy curiosity, after all, if that group of people can be defeated, there must be a more powerful group to make a move. For this kind of person, it is necessary to understand it.
It is very difficult to find out the truth about some things, such as the disappearance of her second sister that the sick princess is worried about. And for others, just open your mouth and ask casually.
Zhou Shu played cards with Natie all morning to make her happy, and as soon as lunch was over, he took Roger out to do serious business.
The two of them were going to go to the main temple to have a look first, after all, the responsibility for the event was over there, and he wanted to know about the game from more official channels.
Roger felt that this kind of thing was redundant, and he had already said it many times. The knockout rounds will begin in five days, and the registration deadline is also on that day.
There is no group setting for this knockout round, as long as a team signs up on the same day, it will 'draw' the number draw once, and then fight each other with the opponent who 'draws' the same number. The winner gets a qualification card for the next round of elimination.
The knockout tournament lasts for a month and is played three times in total, which means that the band needs to fight the enemy three times with two replenishments. This is basically a test of the strength of the warband, and it takes at least two generals to ensure a certain victory rate. It is precisely because of this setting that the warbands are busy understanding the strength of their opponents, and if they can be sure that the opponents they encounter are not strong, they can let the weaker fighters deal with them and keep the new force alive.
Zhou Shu wanted to learn about the situation from official channels, but he actually wanted to hear the details. For example, after signing up, the lottery can not be 'traded' out, and if he can, he is more willing to 'spend' money to buy some opponents who are not very strong to play. Even if he doesn't let the 'trade', he has to understand the process after the 'lottery', maybe he can secretly 'trade' for it, after all, as long as it is a rule set by people, there are always leaks that can be drilled.
Walking in the direction of the main temple, the more they walked, the more strange they felt.
Zhou Shu and Roger frowned and looked left and right at the houses on both sides of the street, always feeling that something was wrong, full of a sense of disobedience. Compared with Rogerd, Zhou Shu, a modern person, is a little more delicate.
"I see, empty house!"
Master Zhou clearly remembered that yesterday, some deserted houses in this city were filled with people, and they were almost impossible to stuff. As a result, when I looked at it today, there were several houses that were exaggeratedly bad, but there were still tiles covered by them, and they were empty, or there were only a few people in them.
Roger found the heart of the problem when he said this, so he very happily sought out a young man who was drawing water at the well and asked about the situation. ( ) In his opinion, it is enough to ask the inhabitants for such a thing.
"Why? You don't know what happened after yesterday's thunderstorm?"
The young man's tone was not very friendly, Zhou Shu could see that he seemed to be very hungry, and after the water was fought, he couldn't wait to pour it into his stomach, probably a master who couldn't afford to eat and was full of water.
"I've got a generation of honey candy reads here;. He once again took out the honey candy he bought in this world from the space props, "Honestly 'hand' over what you know, and the sugar will be given to you." Of course, I don't mind if you want to try a piece of the goods first. ”
According to the young man who had a slurred pronunciation due to the sugar stuffing in his mouth, two large warbands in the city clashed and fought yesterday. That thunderstorm cloud is the heart of the battle, triggered by the hero who holds the 'crown'. And the opponent of the crown hero is the entire guardian of our way.
"Ah?!" Master Zhou originally wanted to ask about the vacant room, but he didn't want to ask about the ins and outs of our Dao guards being wiped out.
The day before yesterday, Nati, who used the sword, couldn't even defeat the two members of our Dao guards, and now that he heard that the gang was killed in one go, Zhou Shu really couldn't believe it.
The young man didn't really know the truth, and he heard all those things from his friends. It seems that the owner of the crown, the leader of the Rainstorm Warband, stepped forward to challenge after a conflict with the people who guarded our Dao.
Our guards are a group of battle maniacs, and when I heard that there was a real combat exercise, I naturally went on it.
Originally, the double hair played well, and the fists and feet were very serious, which also attracted a large number of onlookers. As a result, the crown hero didn't know if it was intentional or not, anyway, without warning, he suddenly unleashed the power of the holy artifact and summoned a large number of thunderclouds. These clouds crackled and rained down thunder and lightning, killing the onlookers and our road guards, and not many people escaped, including the scar-faced leader.
Master Zhou looked at the young man in front of him, and knew very well that he was beating Xiao Jiujiu in his stomach when he described this content. This guy is clearly guiding himself to think, trying to make himself think that the hero of the Rainstorm Warband deliberately broke out thunder and lightning, and the purpose is to kill the residents so that there are more vacant houses in the city.
Zhou Shu didn't like this kind of narration very much, so he only gave half a bag of honey candy. The young man was not happy, Zhou Shuliang shook his fist, and the other party left with a bucket.
"Let's go check it out. "Roger doesn't dare to guarantee that the 'Hero' will not really hurt civilians for the sake of the house. After all, their Rainstorm Bands must have a house to live in, and they don't need to get a new place to live.
Compared with a simple soldier, Zhou Shu has a lot more thoughts in his head. In his opinion, it was not a good thing to live in a house carved out by the Rainstorm Warband, who knew if they would suddenly rain lightning and scorch this extremely dense area of warrior housing?
Since there is nothing particularly serious about going out today, the information of our Dao guards who need to be inquired about has already been obtained, and there is nothing to pay special attention to. The rest of the activity time was relatively free, and Zhou Shu and Roger De moved towards the area where the thunderclouds appeared yesterday with suspicion.
---
Sometimes smart people are always 'confused' and 'confused' by what is in their heads, not to mention that Zhou Shu has never thought that he is smart enough. But this time, he felt that he might have guessed correctly, at least the Rainstorm Bands really killed many innocent onlookers in order to create a large number of empty houses.
Although he has no clear evidence to support his speculation, many things do not need evidence at all. When he and Roger arrived at the area that had been hit by thunderclouds, they saw a very intact house that had barely been damaged by lightning, and a very happy warband that was moving towards the house.
It can be seen that these warbands should still have some strength, after all, they are teams that can find a foothold.
Roger didn't pay much attention to the men, his eyes couldn't pull out of the carts. The cart was littered with charred human corpses, clothes were burned, and the 'naked' and 'exposed' skin was covered with black and red 'colored' scars. He, a soldier, didn't have to lose to know that a cart could hit the corpses of seven or eight adults, not counting the armor. Next to these carts were several models of the same model with cracked wheels, apparently damaged by heavy lifting. I don't know how many batches of corpses were pushed out of the city by these carts, and I don't know where those bodies were buried.
"Where are you buried my parents' bodies!!"
Just as Roger was thinking about this, three fourteen or fifteen-year-old and a half boys suddenly appeared, questioning a few coolies pushing carts and preparing to leave the city.
The men who worked as coolies looked weak and helpless, and replied in a weak tone that had been hungry for several days: "On the outskirts of the city, by the city walls." The people who let us transport these bodies refuse to pay for us to send them to the cemetery on the outskirts of the city, and only pay for the transportation outside the city gates. ”
When the three boys heard this, they hurriedly asked for the specific location, presumably to find the bodies of their parents who had died because of the thunderclouds. However, the coolies said that a fire platform had already been erected there, and the soldiers living on the outskirts of the city were worried that the corpses that had been transported out would cause a plague, so they came to burn them one by one. It's definitely too late to rush now, it's better to take a look at the last batch of dead bodies in this car, if not, then it's gone.
Zhou Shu has experienced the God of Calamity, and he hates this kind of guy who uses thunder and lightning as a means of attack. One of the most difficult enemies he has encountered in the past two years is the god of winter and the god of calamity, and all the unlucky natural phenomena used to fight. Now there's another guy with a thundercloud, in fact, he doesn't really like to preempt the enemy when he doesn't provoke him, and the situation at this time gives him a good excuse.
"Whoever caused this killing, I'm going to make him pay. He said the beautiful words that had just come to mind to Roger beside him, and decided to get to know the people of the Rainstorm Clan in the battles organized by the Luyun Clan and the Suburban Clan.
Roger didn't have the ability to embarrass the hero, he also had some sense of justice as a soldier, and he was staring at the three boys rummaging through the corpses on the cart with a flat mouth, and he could see that the big man was in a very low mood.
"So be it, Rogerd. Zhou Shu pointed at the three boys with a smile, "You go and ask them if they are willing to join our battle group." In return, I can help their parents get paid. ”
He said this, in fact, the "medicine" was to make Roger happy, to help these children, and to satisfy his sympathy. While it is important to say nice words to comfort a person when they are in a bad mood, it is more effective to do something that will make him happy than words to comfort him.
The three boys flipped over and over in several cars, and most of the bodies that were killed by lightning had no skin injuries, most of them died of internal organ damage, at least the body did not bleed profusely, which made these corpses clean and not so filthy.
"No, no, no. ”
The three of them checked it many times, and the coolies on the side were already a little impatient, they carried the corpses for a day and a night, and they were very tired and wanted to sleep. Compassion is not a noble thing, everyone has it. Even the act of almsgiving, almsgiving, is just a very common human 'sexual' need. But everyone has a bottom line, and now the coolies are really impatient, even if they sympathize with the three boys who died with their parents, they don't have the spare time to let them turn over endlessly.
Just as the men were about to get angry, Roger appeared and took out some coins that Zhou Shu had given him and distributed them to the coolies.
Although money was no longer a hard currency at this time, and the whole city lacked food, the coolies had been working hard for these coins for the first half of their lives, and now they were still kind when they saw it, and decisively left sleep and impatience behind.
When the boy saw Rogerd's behavior, he nodded politely and thanked him, and continued to rummage for another twenty minutes before stopping.
"Nope. ”
Three of them fell to their knees in despair, two of whom were already crying.
Roger leaned over to them and frowned and asked, "Isn't it good not to have a body? ”
The boys shook their heads and said with tears in their voices, "Our newborn sister died in the house, she must have froze to death last night." If my parents were still alive, I would never leave my sister alone in the house. ”
After some conversation, Roger learned that the three children were the little apprentices who learned the craft from a stone carver in the city, and the matter of Lei Yun was only known this morning, and it was also a bit of a news blockage. When they arrived to see what was going on, they found a group of people who were going to stay in their house, all of them warriors.
They ran to stop them, and then they saw a soldier carrying a dead baby who was worried about where to throw it, and it was the sister of the three boys.
The boys also didn't care about their own house, so they wrapped up their sister's body and sent it to a friend's house to bury it later, and then ran here to find their parents' bodies.
Roger heard that there was a dead baby, and his heart was even more uncomfortable.
"Look what that 'hero' has done!"
He cursed viciously, as if his own relatives had also died at the hands of the crown heroes. The boy on the side was also very relieved to see him so 'excited', lamenting that there were still good people killed in the world, and his sad mood was slightly alleviated.
Roger thought that he still had a task, so he found a suitable opportunity to bring up Zhou Shu's 'transaction'.
"I am also a warrior who came to this city. Your parents died at the hands of the leader of the Tempest Band, and if you want revenge, we may be able to help you. ”
The three boys had no other thoughts in their heads, and since they couldn't find their parents' bodies, the only thought that drove them to live was to avenge their blood.
"But we don't have the money to ask the warband to help, and we can't repay your kindness, sir. ”
Roger said in his heart that these three are really good children, and he was moved to bring the last sentence of Zhou Shu.
"If you wish, you can only join our warband after your revenge has been successful. You don't need to fight, just make up the numbers. ”
