1055. The town of Samp after the war
Storm.
In the town, in an alley paved with stone slabs, the rainwater flowing in the ditch next to the alley has a faint purple tinge.
Everywhere there were infantry soldiers cleaning the battlefield, they went from house to house to clean up the corpses of hellhounds and cryptmen, and by the way, they would sneak into the house and rummage through the valuable objects in the room, and if they were lucky, they could find jewelry boxes in the master's bedroom, and some families even wore silver ornaments on the candlesticks, or some silver coins and copper plates were sent out from the money jars hidden in the corners......
There were some torn clothes in the yard, and occasionally some rotten fingers and chewing teeth could be found in the corners.
If you can find a small package in these rags, most of them will hide a little silver coin, and if you are lucky, you can even pick up gold coins.
If it's not large, you can be brave enough to sneak it into your pocket.
It's just that once discovered, not only will you be punished, but from now on, the good thing of cleaning the battlefield will be lost.
Of course, soldiers who plan to fight on the battlefield also have some benefits.
For example, handing over property will get a certain merit value, and in addition, low-level magic materials such as the claws and teeth of the hellhound do not need to be handed over, although it is not too valuable, but it is also a large amount of income when it is accumulated.
The soldiers carried the corpses of the Cryptman and Hellhound onto a wagon, which was loaded and transported to the sand hill on the west side of Samp Town.
There is a sand pit on the other side of the sand hill, and the corpses of the demons of Hell will be thrown into the sand pit by the coachman and burned together.
The coachman driving the four-wheeled carriage crouched beside the carriage.
They usually have a skinning knife in their hands, and their eyes are fixed on the hellhounds that are thrown into the carriage, and the coachman will cut off the claws with a skinning knife if any of them still have claws.
Take the claws of this hellhound to the caravan, and each paw will sell for almost fifteen copper plates.
Although the money is not much, it is not difficult for the coachmen to keep an eye on it, and pick up seventy or eighty hellhound paws every day.
The soldiers who carried the corpses did not look down on the claws of these hellhounds, and at most they would pry off the canines of the hellhounds, which were more than ten centimeters long, and a single tooth could be sold for a silver coin. Canines with a length of less than 10 centimeters and more than 6 centimeters are considered inferior, and each of these canines can be sold for about 50 copper plates.
Infantry soldiers can earn at least a few dozen silver coins a day by carrying the corpses of these hellhounds in the town of Samp.
When fighting with Hellhounds, many Hellhounds died before the Demon Servants, and because of the power of the Symbiosis Contract, the Hellhound's body will completely dissolve under the power of magic.
When the infantry soldiers discovered the law, they would not take the initiative to hunt the demon minions, but would give priority to killing the hellhounds, so that the demon minions would completely dissolve under the constraints of power, so that the corpses of the hellhounds would remain.
Almost all of these hellhounds were decapitated by the infantry, and then packed in wooden boxes......
The head of the Hellhound must be surrendered.
Even though the most valuable part of Hellhound needs to be handed over, cleaning the battlefield is still a pleasure.
"Thirteen single-headed ones, and one double-headed one, this one has a broken belly, sign it." Next to the coachman stood a clerk of the logistics department, who inspected the carriage before speaking to the captain of the infantry who was sweeping the battlefield.
This clerk is responsible for approving merit.
The number of hellhounds killed this time was a bit large, and the hoplite soldiers were unable to take the heads of these vicious dogs in the first place, so it was a bit troublesome to count and divide the ownership afterwards.
"This one was broken before it was moved." The captain of the infantry warrior explained.
"Write it, I can't explain it if I don't write it......," the clerk pushed the account book in front of the captain of the infantry soldiers, and said flatly: "I heard that someone took out the gold coin from the dog's belly, and the top will control it so strictly." ”
The captain of the infantry soldier pinched his nose, signed his name in the account book, and muttered in a low voice: "Who will endure this stench...... Reach out and touch the gold coins in the dung pit, I'm really convinced! ”
Hearing the captain's complaint, the warrior carrying the corpse of the hellhound behind him laughed along: "Haha...... One gold coin is enough! ”
Of course, cleaning the battlefield in the town is not just about carrying corpses, but also washing the blood stains in the yard, and the collapsed courtyard wall does not need to be repaired, but at least the cracked stones must be used to plug the gaps in the wall.
It is also necessary to rearrange all the furniture and items in the courtyard, and then seal the windows and doors with wooden boards.
The parchment seals that were sealed by the Samp Town Hall on April 8, 2588 were nailed directly to the door panel, so they did not fall off for ......a short time.
After all this is done, a small courtyard can be considered cleaned.
The busiest place is the row of trading houses on the main street of Samp Town, which are now public property of Samp Town, and some of the trading houses selling all kinds of food have almost been turned over by Hellhounds, almost indistinguishable from the ruins.
The shops that traded cloth, ironware, and everyday goods were also in disarray, but many supplies were preserved.
Due to the death of the local noble lords and the escape, the first meeting to recover Samp Town naturally could not be held.
As a result, these noble lords will become allies of the MacDonnell Lords' army, and Samp Town is considered the land that Surdak carved out from the demons of Hell, so everything that the town currently owns is his private property, including the surrounding large meadows and the entire Lake Belanoma.
Compared to the ruined city of Mukusuo, the buildings here are still in good condition, the only thing that is a little ugly is the smashed city wall on the south side of the town, and it is estimated that it will cost a lot of money to rebuild it.
……
Surdak stands on the lookout tower on the roof of the City Hall building, from which he can see the entire city of Samp Town.
More than 20,000 soldiers of the heavy infantry regiment cleaned the battlefield in the town, and the streets and alleys were full of infantry soldiers, and horse-drawn carriages transporting corpses passed through the west gate of the town and transported the corpses to the sand hill in the distance.
The entire town hall building has now been turned into a command post and a field hospital for the hoplite regiment, and a large medical tent has been set up in the courtyard, although the siege took advantage of a torrential rain to completely mute the demon minions and the flame gogs, but the hellhounds and crypt warriors guarding the city still caused a lot of casualties to the hoplite regiment.
The dead soldier directly took out a pension, which was easier to deal with.
As for the wounded soldiers, they were basically concentrated in the field hospital converted from the town hall, and Thea and the water magician, as well as some people temporarily transferred by Surdak, became members of the field hospital, but Surdak himself was responsible for the main treatment.
This time, the heads of the hellhound were collected enough, not only did they obtain a large number of magic cores, but these primary sacrifices were also packed with boxes, after all, the sealing boxes were limited, and those that could not be packed were sent to the altar in exchange for the blessing of the 'blessing of the gods' to the wounded soldiers.
The most valuable thing about the 'Divine Blessed Body' is not only its powerful recovery ability, but it can also temporarily improve the warriors' physique, and its strength has also been slightly improved, and the effect is slightly worse than that of the 'Lion King Potion'.
Still, it allows the warriors to feel a higher level of power.
For the Warfighters, this will make it easier for them to break through their own bottlenecks, which is what the Lion King Potion does.
Surdak had just finished treating the wounded, and he stood on the watchtower with a cup of hot tea, looking at the rain-washed town of Sampu, and the lake Neranoma in the north was like a sapphire set in the Sayroman plateau.
After every war, it was always his busiest time, and this time was no exception.
Surdak was slightly injured when he fought the King of Hellhounds, who had fused the wisdom of demonic minions, but he was a second-turn knight with the body of holy light, and in just two days, his injuries had completely healed.
And pushing open the door in the spiritual world, he saw a vast sea in front of him, which was a clear path to take in the future.
Standing on the watchtower platform now gives me a feeling of refreshment.
Samira hadn't even wiped off the purple blood from her body, so she walked up from the side of the turntable staircase with a few Shadow Demon Skins and Goge Skins.
Thea walked over and handed Samira a cup of hot tea, who threw the demon-blooded leather on the tower floor, took the hot tea, and sat down against the wall.
Surdak walked over to inspect the skins and furs.
After all, if you can peel off a Goleather fur with the life magic pattern, you can still sell it for a good price.
This kind of fireball technique quick casting of the life magic pattern is like a cheat for those one-turn magicians, the time for others to condense a small fireball, mastering the 'fireball technique' life magic pattern can condense three, that kind of quantitative suppression, it is even more powerful than third-level magic.
From nearly a thousand Gege skins, Surdak found only five furs with the 'Fireball' Life Pattern, and the rest were ordinary magic skins.
The few Goge furs that Samira brought back didn't have the 'Fireball' Life Pattern.
Surdak stacked them and set them aside.
This leather has a very high fire resistance and very good magic conduction.
Whether it's making magic robes or making magic pattern builds, it's a good magic material.
In addition to the fur of the Flame Goleather, there was also a black Shadow Demon Skin with a glazed luster, and Surdak reached out and touched it, and he could clearly feel the magical aura flowing on it, and he did not find the 'invisible' Life Demon Pattern, which I heard was even rarer.
However, this Shadow Demon Skin of the Hell Demon Clan, even if it does not have an 'invisible' life demon pattern, is also a magic leather that is very popular with assassins.
As long as it is sold in Pena City, it is destined to be a hot item.
"Cleaned up this time?" Surdak asked Samira.
After the war, there were several Shadow Demons hiding in the town of Samp, assassinating several soldiers of the Heavy Infantry Regiment one after another, as well as killing several fellows of the Merchant Regiment, and Samira had been hunting down these Shadow Demons in the town recently.
Samira shook her head and said, "There may be, but they hide relatively deeply, they hide in the shadows, as long as they don't come out to kill, it is estimated that it will be difficult to be discovered......"
