Chapter 043: A Leopard in a Tube

As Luthern said, it was only a little detour to get to the East Side.

Although Citizen does not have a traditional form of city wall, and the entire municipal construction is in disarray because of the construction of the mountain, the four urban districts of east, west, north and south still exist, and there is a conventional dividing line.

Luthern, who is familiar with the situation in Dongcheng District, took a shortcut.

In Lu Bai's eyes, the so-called streets on the periphery of Dongcheng District are still urban-rural junctions full of illegal shacks.

However, many of the shacks have been visibly destroyed, and the streets covered in black mud are completely devoid of pedestrians, but there is one barricade.

When the heavily armed Famore militia, led by eight family warriors, walked into the barricade in two wagons about twenty meters from the barricade, a flaxen-colored head with a chicken coop head poked out from behind the barricade made of messy debris.

"Stop, who are you?!Don't come any closer, just stand where you are, or we won't mind opening a few holes in your body!"

While the flax head spoke, a dozen steam spears were mounted on the barricade.

"Phew, it's the lackeys of the Tinick family!"

The White Eagle Swordsman Cole glanced at it and cursed in a hateful whisper.

It was the Tinic family who broke through the Tanaro family's fortress manor and almost completely wiped out the Tanaro family.

"Kill them all. ”

Rutherne's voice came from the carriage in front of her.

Then, a large fireball the size of a basin flew out of the wagon with scorching heat, whistling and slamming into the barricades.

"Enemy attack!"

"Magician !!"

"Run!"

Behind the barricades, there was a shout of panic, but there were also two steam guns that thuded and slammed, spraying round iron projectiles at the unscrupulous carriage.

Seeing that someone might be killed or injured on Lu Bai's side, a huge multicolored shield that could just protect the entire front of the team suddenly appeared and successfully resisted the two iron projectiles that were attacking at high speed.

"What a big ......"

Lutherne, who was in the first carriage, only had time to say the big word in surprise, and the huge multicolored secret word shield that suddenly appeared suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"It's so strong!"

Luther couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, he was already doubting Lu Bai's rank as a magician—could such an amazing magic really be unleashed by a full-fledged magician? Could it be that Mr. Kaspersky was actually a Grand Magician?!

Only the magician knows the magician best.

But now was not the time to sigh, and Luther had to devote most of his attention to the battle, and he gave the order to kill all the Tinnick family men guarding the barricades, not because he killed them.

Fortunately, to Luthern's relief, his most loyal servant, Cole, carried out his orders perfectly.

None of the Tinnick family miscellaneous soldiers guarding the barricades were able to escape, and the zero battle damage made the morale high—except for the few cowardly militiamen who were not psychologically good enough to frighten the bloody dead people.

In fact, when Lu Seen was observing the battle situation, Lu Bai, who was in the carriage behind him, also carefully observed the entire battle process with great interest.

Start with a large fireball that blasts through obstacles to cause chaos and damage by the way, then another round of random gunfire while the enemy is in chaos, and then the melee class assaults the knife...... This should be the latest mode of warfare that has evolved naturally in this world of swords and sorcery to adapt to the era of steaming, right?

But with just a big fireball, the barricade guarded by more than a dozen guns on the opposite side immediately became chaotic and the wolves rushed to the pigs.

Then the position of the caster of the spell will not be shaken, at least in the short term.

After destroying the barricade guards, all the steam guns, good or bad, were taken away as trophies, and the high-spirited team, led by the White Eagle swordsman Cole, took a shortcut to the Combein Steelworks.

Named after the most famous deity of the Steelsmith, the steelworks were once the largest factory and the most profitable tool of the Tanaro family.

So Ruthern chose the first stop of his comeback at this steel mill.

In this regard, Ruther explained like Lu Bai: "The Combein Steel Mill is not only the core industry of our Ruther family, but also one of the most concentrated and pious places in the whole of Citizen Steelforge God Belief in the Steelsmiths, even the Tinick family does not dare to act rashly, as long as I can reach a consensus with the forging apostles in the factory, all the forging workers in the steelmaking plant will be used by me!"

When he said this, Luthern was full of energy, as if he had regained control of the Combein Steelworks.

Oh, sure enough, it's still the upper route.

However, are even devout believers just bargaining chips for the upper class?

Lu Bai couldn't help but pity the religious masses of this world - after paying so much, what could they gain?

"Devout believers can enter the kingdom of God after death, regain their youthful and healthy appearance, and then have a long life that is close to eternal life. ”

Amanda was completely surprised by Lu Bai's ignorance of common sense, and just explained this sentence in passing.

But is it worth it?

Maybe......

Lu Bai nodded to Amanda, indicating that he had understood.

And while talking, the Combein steel mill also arrived.

The factory, which has nine steel-making blast furnaces, has more than 1,500 employees, eighty percent of whom are followers of the god of steelsmiths.

On the periphery of the factory, a wall about two meters high was built, which was well isolated from the inside and outside, allowing it to successfully survive the chaos in the city.

The Tinnick family, who successfully seized the ownership of the factory, set up a barricade at the gate of the factory without accident, and kept both external guard and internal surveillance.

If nothing happens, the steelworks will sooner or later be digested by the Tinnicks when the chaos at Citizen is over - if Tinnick can have the last laugh.

The importance of the Combein steel mill is evident from the triple barricade set up by the Tinnick family at the gate.

"Stop, who are you?

Lu Bai and his entourage turned the corner and saw the gate of the steel mill, and the barricade had already fired a warning without hesitation.

A steam-propelled iron projectile struck the leading White Eagle swordsman Cole in front of his toes, and was only half a step away from hitting him.

"Damn, there's an Hawkeye gunner!"

I don't know when he had quietly gotten out of the carriage and walked behind Lu Bai's luxury car, his expression became ugly.

"Mr. Kaspersky, it looks like it's time for you to get started! This damn Hawkeye Gunner must be killed as soon as possible!"
