Chapter 196: A New Official Takes Office! Carrots and Sticks
Early the next morning, the guards received an order to summon, which should have been issued by the new sheriff Chen Rui.
When a new official takes office, it is inevitable that he will be dignified, but he must also cooperate with others to play prestige, and the convening order has been issued for a long time, but more than 200 people have come one after another, and even one-tenth is not enough.
It is clear that it is in turn to give the new sheriff a dismissal, who made you a human being?
Of course, most people are not sleeping at home, but are watching the development of events, after all, it is one thing to get off the horse and another to rebel.
Soon, the watchers heard the shocking news that the guards were divided into five brigades, and except for the captains of the two teams who had heard the summoning order, the captains of the other three teams were dragged out and their heads were cut off, and the captain of the faint team was the captain.
Within an hour, if the current captain is unable to gather his subordinates, then all of them will be beheaded, and the squad leader who will arrive first will be the captain, and so on, don't doubt the viciousness and methods of the new sheriff, because the Cloak Society, the largest organization in the city, has openly expressed its support for the human sheriff. Originally, the captain of the "passive sabotage" was personally killed by Araux and his people, but now the Cloak Society has controlled every corner of the city, and he can't even escape.
An hour later, all the guards appeared on the playground of the barracks, and many of them were caught in a hurry by the new captain to joke that if the time was delayed, the captain's position and life would not be saved, and it would be cheaper for others!
The flagpole of the high platform was hung with bloody heads, and the new magistrate Chen Rui stood on the platform casually, secretly observing the guards under the platform, most of the guards were lazy and lazy, and it was a problem to even stand in formation, and some of them showed contempt for their strength.
"Ahem"..."Chen Rui cleared his throat through magic amplification: "Let me introduce myself, I am Chen Rui, the newly appointed magistrate of the eldest princess, Chen Rui......"
"Incompetent humans!" someone had already started to heckle, and there was laughter below.
Chen Rui was not angry: "The sixth row of the second brigade, the red-clothed horned demon who took the lead in coaxing, you come to the stage now." If you can survive a minute on my hands, you can go back to sleep every day, and you can still pay your head every month. ”
The horned demon didn't expect the human eyes to see him at such a sharp glance, and then he heard Chen Rui's words and shouted, "Really?"
Chen Rui nodded: "This is the barracks, every word I say here is valid, and all the guards are your witnesses." ”
As soon as everyone saw that there was a good show, they all got out of the way, and the horned demon walked up to the stage in three steps and two steps, and before he could speak, he saw Chen Rui wave his hand at him, and the horned demon's body suddenly stagnated, and the whole person began to corrode at a speed visible to the naked eye, and instantly turned into a skeleton, and the liquid mixed with venom and blood spread all over the ground.
The commotion immediately became quieter, and he looked at this scene in horror, this horned demon was a squad leader, and the high-level strength of the intermediate demon was not bad among the guards, but he was turned into white bones in a single photo. I knew that this human being was the apprentice of Master Aldas, and I didn't expect that I had learned such a terrifying poison so quickly.
"Don't say I'm contemptible, I'm just a pharmacist", Chen Rui brazenly promoted his incompetent apprenticeship to a pharmacist without authorization, "I won't tell you anything, I have already obtained the true inheritance of Master Ardas." If there are still people who are not convinced, please stand up one by one, I will invite him to my and my teacher's laboratory, and be an experiment for a few days, as long as he can come out alive, I will promote him to an official. ”
Master Aldas's laboratory!
This time the playground was already silent: everyone knew that the laboratory in the outer courtyard of the palace was the most terrifying place in the entire Dark Moon City, and there were often screams in the past, even the strongest palace guards did not dare to approach, let alone go in to do "experiments"......
The pharmacist is not a combat type, but he also has a series of poison methods for self-preservation, Chen Rui has learned a lot from Aldas, and with his exquisite control of Liliang, even if he does not expose his strength, he can bluff people in the name of an imposter pharmacist. ,
At this time, the herald at the gate of the barracks came to report: "The Mellon family and Cass have sent someone to ask for an audience outside the barracks.
There was a whisper in the guards, the two captains who were beheaded were the Mellon family and the Cass family, these have a good show, but Weishenme still has to "ask to see"?
Chen Rui nodded: "Let them in." ”
Representatives of the two families came to the high platform and saluted respectfully, not mentioning the matter of the slain captain, but only brought a large number of gifts to congratulate the new sheriff on behalf of the patriarch.
Daohe's people came one after another, except for the Saifo family, almost all the big and small families of Darkmoon came. This kind of big scene, many guards saw it for the first time, and they were dumbfounded, it seems that the energy of the human sheriff is far beyond imagination.
Soon another heavyweight came, Royce, representing Joseph, the treasurer, who was equally respectful, expressing his apology for not being able to come in person, and sponsoring two hundred sets of high-quality leather armor and weapons.
The arrival of Royce and the Mellon family was instructed by Joseph to help Chen Rui build momentum, intensify the confrontation between him and the Severic family, arouse the suspicion of Thea, and further divide it.
Immediately afterwards, the new deputy leader of the Cloak Society, Alaux, and the head steward, Didi, also came on behalf of the Cloak Society's leader, Agullie, and expressed their greatest support for Chen Rui in public.
After thanking the guests, Chen Rui continued to speak: "I admit that I am not a combat type, so I have hired two instructors to train you, and the instructors can be fully responsible for all affairs in the army. I'm going to give you a chance, if you can defeat the instructor in the challenge, then you can take the place of the instructor and get a good pay,...."
Chen Rui said a lot of benefits, whetted everyone's appetite, and then introduced: "The first instructor is my friend Agulie's most powerful subordinate, the vice president of the cloak association, Araux. ”
Alaux in the audience flashed in an instant, and had already appeared beside Chen Rui, bowed slightly, and when facing the guards, there was suddenly a double-headed scythe in his hand, and there was no magic megaphone, and the sound of gold and iron resounded throughout the audience.
"If you are not convinced, take a step forward. ”
Although Araux was defeated by Agulie, his strength in that battle has been fully demonstrated, even if he is inferior to Agulie, he is also one of the high-level demons in the Dark Moon, and he is famous, who dares to challenge him?
As soon as these words came out, almost all the guards took a step back, so that the guys who "stepped forward" were almost frightened to pee their pants.
Alaux didn't care, and sneered: "Cowardly fellows, in the coming days, I will make you strong! Whoever dares to run away, die!"
The objects of wetting their pants have become those who retreat, and no one dares to doubt the authenticity of Araux's words, and in the arena, there are countless escapees who have died under Alaux's hands.
Listening to Chen Rui's tone, he and the most powerful Agulie turned out to be good friends, no wonder Agulie publicly expressed his maximum support, and even Alaux "lent" Chen Rui as an instructor.
"The second instructor is the first female swordsman of Darkmoon City, the first general of the empire, George, the daughter of Wells, Miss Athena!"
Dressed in leather armor and carrying a large sword, Athena walked up to the stage, the first female swordsman of the Dark Moon was obviously much more popular than Araux, and her beautiful appearance and sexual figure made many people clap their hands with bright eyes. Many people have only heard of Athena's name, but they have never seen her strength, and there are already people who want to challenge it.
However, Athena's next action shocked the audience, everyone only felt that their eyes were sparkling, Athena had already pulled out her big sword like lightning and had slashed down to the side, the ground trembled, and the entire high platform made of solid stone suddenly collapsed in half, not only that, but there was also a terrifying ravine more than ten meters long and several meters deep extending from behind.
Athena's cold voice rang out: "Challenger, you need to have the consciousness of death. ”
The scene was quiet, even the coughing sound caused by the dust was suppressed, and the people in the audience gasped, the power of this sword, even if it was not much worse than the strength of Araux, it was worthy of being the daughter of the first general of the empire. ,
In fact, these people still underestimated Athena, and Araux himself knew in his heart that Athena definitely didn't use the real Liliang, and if this sword was slashed, even he would definitely not be able to withstand it. No wonder the master once said that the strength of this "master mother" is now close to the high level of the demon king.
What a waste,... Chen Rui looked at the half-collapsed high platform, shook his head secretly, and continued: "There is another good news to tell you, I have obtained the special approval of the eldest princess, as long as everyone's training results meet the requirements of the two instructors, then the future military salary and military supplies can enjoy the same treatment as the Praetorian Guard, and there will be additional rewards every month." ”
The carrot behind this big stick made everyone's eyes light up, what is the Praetorian Guard? The strongest guard under the command of the eldest princess, whether it is equipment or military salary, is more than a few grades higher than the guard. The guards have long been salivating, and now they can enjoy this kind of treatment, how can it not be exciting?
As long as the treatment can get better and better, who is the head of the fuck, don't forget, the previous sheriff Alan is just a middle-level demon, and it doesn't rely on the strength of the Caron family?
"If everyone has no opinion, then from tomorrow, the closed training will officially begin", Chen Rui then asked loudly: "Do you understand?"
"Got it!"
Although the answers were still uneven, I was a little angry for the first time.
Chen Rui looked at the looks of these guys and smiled slightly, the treatment of the Praetorian Guards is right, the key is the previous sentence, "As long as the training meets the requirements of the two instructors." "It is estimated that these guys will be practicing tomorrow to cry and call their mothers.
Next is the matter of the two instructors, Athena and Araux, but Chen Rui can't be idle for a while, as the leader of the largest shili cloak club in the city, "Agulie" has a more important thing in front of him...... )
