Chapter 112: Butcher?
Although Peng Tian was absent-minded, the meeting he was going on at the moment was closely related to him.
The Speaker of the Lord's seat was reading the report on the damage caused by the chaos in the ship city that had just been counted.
The least affected by the turmoil was Central Island, where factories were shut down and a small number of people were taken away without passing inspections.
The most serious loss of the entire ship city was the northwest seafarers' gathering area, and even the entire periphery of the ship city was impacted, and hundreds of ship city guards who maintained law and order set off a rebellion, not counting the people who were taken away, the rebellion alone led to more than 7,000 casualties.
This is the biggest loss since the establishment of the council and the chaos when the ship city was first built.
Although the losses that can be counted on the surface are serious, they have not shaken the foundation of the parliament, and what really worries the speaker is the growing tension in the shiptown.
Beneath the calm surface of the water, there is a turbulent undercurrent.
Raising his eyes and looking at the vacant seat opposite, the speaker glanced at Peng Tian who was sitting at the end without a trace.
Thinking of what this Captain Peng has been doing these days, the Speaker's eyes became dark.
Lan Yingzheng, who was sitting next to the speaker, carefully checked the report in her hand and listened to the introduction of the leaders of the relevant departments, this was the work arranged for her by the immortals.
The immortal had asked her to go home to spend time with her family, but after only one night at home, the immortal called her to the council to supervise her work.
When she learned that a cataclysmic monster had infiltrated the ship city for a while, she instantly felt that the sky had fallen.
With her understanding of the cataclysm, in terms of the population density of the ship city, if the cataclysmic monsters infiltrated, all the immortals could do was to rescue some people as much as possible.
But as the chaos in the ship city became bigger and bigger, Lan Ying's heart was relieved a lot, because she could be sure that this was not a catastrophe, or rather, it was not a catastrophe in her cognition.
Not only did the people who were contaminated with the cataclysm in the ship city not show any aberrations in their bodies, but most of them were in a mental state that was no different from ordinary people, and more importantly, these infected people could not directly spread the cataclysm twice.
Lan Ying had seen the cataclysmic people who had been taken away in the parliament building.
Some of them had even talked to Lan Ying not long ago, and no matter how she checked, she couldn't tell that these people were contaminated with the cataclysm.
Suspicious, she also tried the amulet herself, and only after making sure that these people could make the amulet heat up, she was relieved.
Immortal talismans can't go wrong.
But when he thought of the situation faced by these people after being taken away, Lan Ying, who prided himself on being accustomed to life and death, didn't want to think about it.
Put yourself in the same position, do you have this decision?
Lan Ying tilted her head slightly and glanced at Peng Tian, who was sitting at the end, although she knew that the decision was made by the immortals, but it was he who had actually done things in the past few days.
Sighing from the bottom of his heart, he can only hope that the immortals can solve the catastrophe in this world as soon as possible, so that the people of Boat City no longer have to worry about the invasion of the catastrophe.
Retracting her wandering thoughts, Lan Ying refocused on the report in her hand.
Bang dang~
At this time, the door of the small conference room was violently kicked open, and the ongoing meeting was interrupted, and everyone in the conference room turned their eyes to the door.
After carefully distinguishing the intruder's uniform epaulettes, everyone realized that it was the captain of the giant ship who had recently been recuperating at home.
I haven't seen him for a few days, but his appearance has changed dramatically.
The wrinkles on his face are a few points deeper, and his body is also a lot stiffer.
After breaking into the conference room, he began to scan the people at the table.
Swept by his murderous gaze, those who wanted to open their mouths to say hello silently swallowed their words back into their stomachs.
Finally, the old captain locked his eyes on Peng Tian, and then he took out a silver short gun from his pocket and aimed it at Peng Tian.
Roared:
"Peng Tian, you brute, I agree with you to be the captain, why do you want to take my family away? My wife, daughter, son-in-law, grandson, where have you taken them? You said! ”
The old captain's action of pulling out his gun startled everyone in the room, and even more so, he had already gotten under the table, and the information revealed in his words made everyone dare not interject.
Only the speaker did not have any emotional ups and downs, staring indifferently at the changes in front of him, and had no intention of mediating at all.
Lan Ying turned her head to look at the speaker, then got up directly and walked towards the old captain, and persuaded urgently as she went:
"Captain, calm down, your family is contaminated with the catastrophe, and Peng Tian also did this for the safety of the ship city."
Nation! The old captain fired a shot into the sky and shouted:
"Why don't you hand over your family to Peng Tian, a butcher, for the sake of Boat City, and climb up to the slut of the immortals, there is no place for you to speak here!"
Lan Ying didn't have negative emotions because of the old captain's abuse, she didn't stop walking, and she wanted to continue to persuade when she opened her mouth.
There was another explosion, this time the old captain aimed at the wall on Lan Ying's side, but the bullet did not successfully pass through Lan Ying's side and shoot into the wall, and was stopped by a pale golden light film.
Seeing this scene, the old captain scolded in a low voice, so he pounced on Peng Tian's side and pressed Peng Tian's temple with his gun.
"Peng Tian, don't pretend to be dead, immortals can't protect you for a lifetime, I have caught all your old friends, you hurry up and hand over my family, otherwise I will die with you."
As the center of this incident, Peng Tian has not reacted superfluously.
He maintained his previous position, rubbing his hands with his head down, the putty and dander on his hands were rubbed clean, but the rubbing action continued.
Being held against the hot muzzle of the gun only made him rub his hands a little more.
Peng Tian's appearance made the old captain's eyes show a little despair, and he turned his head and shouted in a low voice to Lan Ying, who had already touched the approach, "Get out!" ”
Then he directly lowered the muzzle of the gun and pleaded:
"Xiaowen, she was good friends with you when she was a child, Yazhi used to cook food for you before, and you also hugged Qingyuan, can you let me take them away, just throw us on a small island, they can't affect the ship city when they become monsters, and they can't affect the immortals.
In the old captain's pleading, Peng Tian still didn't react, but his hand rubbing movement became bigger and bigger, and the force he used became heavier and heavier, and his red hands were rubbed full of mottled blood.
Peng Tianzhong's reaction made the old captain's heart sink to the bottom, a pair of eyes lost their brilliance, and large tears crossed his cheeks silently, and he asked unwillingly:
"Huh? Peng Tian, you speak, you speak, what do you mean! What do you mean! ”
The complete collapse of the old captain finally made Peng Tian react, he reached out and picked up the old captain's right hand holding the gun, and aimed the muzzle of the gun at his own head.
Astringent said: "Hurry up, don't ink, your mother-in-law is embarrassed to say that I am not suitable to be a captain." ”
"Did you really kill them all? Qingyuan, she's only twelve years old! ”
As he spoke, blood overflowed from the corner of the old captain's mouth, and the strength of his body was quickly withdrawn, if it weren't for Peng Tian's hand holding him, he would not be able to hold the short gun.
