Chapter 488: The Verge

There are still six hours before the trial session.

It was a hot and muggy day, with a thick layer of dark clouds in the sky, and only a few gray rays of sunlight barely shining on the ground.

Even the wind in the wilderness carried the heat, whistling and circling, blowing people sweating all over, and their clothes sticking to their skin, making people feel uncomfortable.

I don't know if it's because of the upcoming trial, the town is a little more depressed and dull.

"There's only one afternoon left, why hasn't Boss Wang Teng shown up yet?"

"It is said that Boss Wang Teng has gone to block the mask monster."

"Who said that?"

"Everybody is saying, just ask someone and you'll know."

In the seventh town, the mercenaries are talking.

Even if Wang Teng didn't show up, where were the more than ten prisoners of the South Wind Organization?

This question is what everyone wants to know the most.

With the spread of those rumors, the hearts of the people in the whole town fluctuated, a little less quiet, a little more impetuous, and many mercenaries had a sense of crisis.

Could this trial really be a game against them?

Everyone doesn't want to die, and it's better to be alive than anything else.

"Afraid of what? There are at least tens of thousands of people gathered in the town, and how can it be so easy to wipe us out? "Someone shouted, most of Wang Teng's subordinates.

"That's right, everyone has to believe in Boss Wang Teng!"

"Those rumors are spread by external forces in order to undermine our unity!"

The closer we get to the time of the trial, the more such voices there are.

In order to suppress the impetuous people's hearts, Wang Teng's subordinates have exhausted all methods, not only disguised as ordinary mercenaries to shout, but also deliberately spread a large number of false news to disturb the sight.

Thanks to their efforts, many mercenaries temporarily calmed down and waited for the judgment to come.

There are also mercenaries who don't believe it very much, and secretly say sadly: "Hmph, how can there be any external forces? It's clearly the news coming out from within. ”

"Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of being caught in this way? Shut up! ”

“……”

To the south of the town, there is a large square.

The oval shape of the square, somewhat similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome, is made of huge timber and stone, surrounded by a circle of wooden seats, which can accommodate more than 3,000 people at a time.

In the square, sixteen identical execution racks have been erected.

Around the outside of the square, there are several giant screens that allow mercenaries who are unable to enter the square to watch the trial.

At this moment, many mercenary organizations have been arranged to take their seats.

At the same time, on the outskirts of the town, the number of mercenaries responsible for patrolling and guarding has increased considerably.

Tiger is one such group responsible for external patrols.

This organization is strong, it has declared its allegiance to Wang Teng very early, and it has taken root in Town No. 7, and even more than half of the materials accumulated over the years have been transferred to Town No. 7, as if it is a long-term station.

The weak mercenaries of the Order do not need to go on patrol, but must represent the Order at the evening Judgment Conference.

"No one can escape with any excuse!"

This was said by the boss of the Tiger Organization himself.

On the fifth floor of the basement, several mercenaries had already returned to the rest area, sitting in their places, as if they had lost their souls, and they were all stunned.

They all have to go, and if they don't go, they will die, which is a very simple multiple-choice question.

But here's the problem......

Will you be able to survive if you go?

Before this, they had been using the excuse that the underground was safer to persuade Su Xia and Wang Teng.

But now, they can't even get this little bit of security.

"Brothers, what's going on?" Su Xia smiled and said, "Isn't it good to go up?" The organization asks us to go up together, which means that the organization trusts us and shows that the organization has not forgotten us. ”

"Alas...... Don't say it, it's uncomfortable......"

The old mercenary surnamed Wang sighed, waved his hand, and didn't want to say anything.

The more I talk about this, the more uncomfortable it becomes.

The other mercenaries were similar, even if they didn't say it, they felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.

"Let's go up, aren't we going to be cannon fodder?" One of the mercenaries had a sad face, "How important are the lives of those big men in high positions, once the battle happens, they will definitely not be the first to go, and when the time comes...... Isn't it our turn to be on top? ”

"Who else but us is better suited to be cannon fodder?" The other mercenary also spoke, and as soon as he spoke, he sighed for a long time.

"If I had known this, when my brother wanted to pull me, I should have followed him!"

"Well, who's to say it's not?"

"I also had the opportunity to go up at the beginning, and after I went up, as long as I worked hard, I could be a small boss no matter how I was, so that I wouldn't be cannon fodd......er at the first time."

Several people sighed and sighed, as if they were going to sigh for the whole year today.

They all regretted it, if they knew this, they would not have been rotten in this ghost place, and they would definitely try their best to go up and get rid of the fate of cannon fodder at the bottom.

There are countless people in this world who regret it every day, but they don't regret the sale of medicine.

All the pain caused by regret can only be swallowed in the stomach.

"Brother Qiao, you are right, we should all listen to you!"

"The plan you proposed at the beginning was also right, we should have followed the plan, but unfortunately, alas, ......"

At the beginning, Qiao Tu had proposed a plan to help everyone go up.

That plan was very simple, with only two steps, namely "meritorious service" and "finding a scapegoat".

As long as they can find a group of mercenaries to replace them and suffer here for them, and then they are trying to find a way to get some credit, it won't be long before they can return to the world above.

However, several mercenaries, led by the old mercenary surnamed Wang, did not approve of this plan, and they felt that it was more comfortable to stay here.

Now, time has telled.

"It's uncomfortable......"

But, no matter how uncomfortable it is, they have to go after all.

There are only a few hours left until the judgment at six o'clock in the evening.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, they began to pack their things.

Small workshop inferior body armor, small workshop pistols and bullets, small workshop melee daggers, etc., a series of small workshop products, are what these low-level mercenaries rely on to survive.

The body armor they wear, whether they can protect against bullets, depends on the addition of metaphysics and luck.

If you're lucky, you can prevent it, and if you're unlucky, you can reopen it directly.

Whether the pistol will jam at a critical moment is also a very metaphysical question.

Compared with them, the weapons used by the black brothers in the African region on the other side of the earth may be considered superior.

After all, many weapons in the African region were leaked out after the dismantling of a behemoth.

"Alas, life and death are fateful."

"If you can survive this time, Lao Tzu will never be a man again, and he will work hard to become a master!"

"Yes, you have to be a master! No more cannon fodder! ”

Several mercenaries cheered each other on, although they didn't know the bottom of their hearts, but they still had to look forward to the future.

Once today's day is over, they may not have the life to look to the future.

Soon, the time came to five o'clock in the afternoon.

There is still one hour left before the trial.

Everyone packed up their equipment, took one last look at this dark underground space, and then entered the elevator, took the elevator all the way up, and came to the long-lost overground world.

In the afternoon, the sky was still gray, and the feeling of sultry heat did not dissipate, but became much stronger.

The wet clothes stuck to his body, reminding Su Xia of the summer in Jincheng.

"Yo, my brothers cleaned up very quickly, can't wait?" The black tiger stood outside, with a playful face, and looked at everyone.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but he happens to be in charge of arranging everyone's activities.

He glanced at Wang Teng, the smile on his face became more wanton, and said, "Xiao Wu, are you still used to being underground for the past two days?" ”

Wang Teng lowered his head slightly, made a respectful look, and replied: "I'm still used to it, thank you Big Brother Black Tiger for taking care of it." ”

"Oh? Am I taking care of you? The black tiger looked surprised.

"This ......"

"Since I've taken care of you, shouldn't you show a little bit?"

"I ......"

Wang Teng's body trembled, and a trace of humiliation and unwillingness flashed on his face, and he began to show his superb acting skills.

It's all at this time, and I still have to act.

In this way, he will not reveal his true identity until the moment when the judgment comes.

Seeing Wang Teng's appearance, Heihu laughed twice wantonly, then shook his head contemptuously, and said, "Xiao Wu, I didn't say you, you don't understand anything about the world, just like you, when will you be able to get out of the way?" ”

"Yes, yes, Big Brother Black Tiger is right." Wang Teng nodded again and again.

The black tiger said: "Remember, in this wilderness, only the truly strong don't need human feelings, such as people like Boss Wang Teng, do you think you are Boss Wang Teng?" ”

"I ......"

"Let's go, you guys come with me!"

Without waiting for Wang Teng to answer, the black tiger turned around directly, waved his hand to several people, and motioned for them to follow.

In the south of the town, outside the huge square, it was already densely packed with people at the moment.

At a glance, there are people everywhere, noisy and crowded, and there is a feeling of a school sports meeting.

Each organization has a part of the people who can enter the square to watch, and the other part can only stay outside to watch the live broadcast on the big screen.

And Su Xia and the others were naturally arranged outside, and it was the outermost part of the southern part of the town.

"You guys are here, watch carefully, don't embarrass us Tiger Organization!" The black tiger pointed casually and pointed to the outermost positions.

Around that position, there are also some low-level mercenaries belonging to the Tiger Organization.

These mercenaries did not look very good, some looked up nervously, and some buried their heads and clasped their hands.

They had to do it because the location of the area was so poor.

They were on the outskirts of the south, almost in the jungle outside, and once the enemy attacked from the south, they would be the first to face the enemy's artillery fire!

Even, if the mercenaries in front of them turn their guns to fight back against the enemy, they are likely to be caught in the center of the two bullets.

When the time comes, even ten lives will not be enough to live!

"Black Tiger Boss, why is the location of our organization here?" The old mercenary surnamed Wang couldn't help it, and felt that this position was too bad, so he asked in a low voice.

"What? Still not satisfied? Black Tiger's face sank.

"No, no, I mean ......"

"That's satisfaction!"

The black tiger directly interrupted his words, and said in a cold voice: "I don't like nonsense, if you say one more thing, you can go and accompany those slaves!" ”

The old mercenary surnamed Wang immediately shut up and buried his head deeply, not daring to say anything more.

For now, they could only pray.

Pray that the South Wind doesn't come.

If they come and a big war breaks out, then the probability of them surviving is pitifully low, and they will almost become the first batch of cannon fodder to die.

Seeing the appearance of several people bowing their heads, Black Tiger nodded with satisfaction, and then turned around and left, going to arrange other mercenaries.

After taking their seats, in addition to Su Xia and Wang Teng, several other mercenaries also began to look around nervously like other mercenaries, and from time to time they looked back at the jungle behind them, for fear that an enemy would sneak attack from behind.

As the minutes passed, more and more mercenaries entered.

By 5:40 p.m., almost all the mercenary organizations had already entered.

The atmosphere at the scene was particularly warm, this was a feast for wandering mercenaries in the southwest region, if it weren't for those gossip and rumors, the atmosphere of this trial might have been even more enthusiastic.

The scene was crowded with people, lively and extraordinary, and all kinds of sounds were endless.

I don't know who suddenly yelled, adding another fire to the warm atmosphere: "It's coming!" The prisoner cart is coming! ”

"Where? Where is it? ”

"Look, it's over there!"

The prisoner cart is coming!

As soon as these five words came out, the atmosphere inside and outside the square was instantly detonated.

The judgment that everyone has been waiting for for a long time has finally come!

I saw that on the central avenue of the town, several black prisoner transport vehicles were slowly coming, and the wheels were rolling, driving from the north of the town to the square in the south.

In front of and around the prisoner transport cart were heavily armed Wang Teng's subordinates, their expressions were cold, and they were all the elite of the elite.

As soon as the prisoner truck arrived, the trial would officially begin.

At this moment, the patrols and guards inside and outside the town all tensed their bodies, and the frequency of communication in the channel gradually increased, and everyone's spirit was concentrated like never before.

Everyone understands that with this judgment will most likely be a brutal war.

After this battle, the victorious side has experienced the baptism of blood and fire, and will surely grow rapidly and quickly become the hegemon of the entire southwest region.

"It's finally here, it should be that they're right......"

At this moment, even the three South Wind squads lurking in the town were moved and ready to make a move.

However, Su Xia, who was sitting on the outermost side, frowned slightly.

"Something is wrong, the prisoners in the car are still disguised, what does Wang Teng want to do?"

Maybe others can't see it, but Su Xia has the help of system prompts and can see through those disguised mercenaries.

It's all this time, and the real prisoners haven't even been brought out.

How should the subsequent trial be conducted?

If the South Wind Organization hadn't come, wouldn't Wang Teng have made a big joke?

"Maybe Wang Teng has planted people within the South Wind Organization, and knows exactly that the South Wind Organization will come?" Su Xia thought about it, probably only this is possible.

The Nanfeng organization has developed too fast, and its strength has expanded too much in a short period of time, and it is normal to have undercover agents inside.

……

At the same time, in the mountains and forests outside Town Seven, a group of high-level players with extremely high quality were secretly sneaking.

The leading players are Li Defu and others.

"Brothers, this is the first battle for us to unify the southwest, we must fight beautifully!" Li Defu spoke out in the group.

"Brother Li, don't worry, everyone has brought enough potions, and it won't be a problem to kill him for a few days and nights!"

"Good!"

Li Defu clenched his fists, full of confidence.

"That Wang Teng scolds my master all day long, Lao Tzu must beat him to call his father this time!"
