Help remove the corpses?

Sean sneered inwardly.

The group of guys calculated very well, although the price of the corpse is not high, but once the number comes up, it is still very valuable.

Even if the professionals themselves don't need it, they can trade it with others or use it as a ritual material.

Of course, the greatest wealth of the soldiers' deaths is actually the soul, which is very difficult to collect and has a wide range of uses, and there are no large-scale massacres, so people do not make containers or use rituals to collect small amounts of souls.

From the first day of the siege to now, 1.5 million soldiers have died in the victory pass, and those strong people at the official and master levels will definitely not let go of this good opportunity, so they even do not hesitate to use drugs to let the army continue to fight.

……

The so-called contraband is nothing more than a trick to fool ordinary people, in fact, these addictive drugs are the source of wealth for many nobles and professionals, so they have been widely cultivated in some hidden places.

The upper echelons didn't care about the effects of the drug flood, they just wanted to take the last copper plate from every civilian's pocket and make them end up in slavery if they owed a lot of gold.

The reason why the rulers of those countries made laws to prohibit this kind of business was not at all a discovery of conscience, but wanted to form a monopoly in this way, and at the same time prevent the lower classes from producing and selling themselves.

Now that the Battle of Victory Pass has begun, the pressure on the soldiers has reached the limit, if they are not vented by some means, once a large-scale mutiny occurs, I am afraid that even the formal-level powerhouses will not be able to suppress it in a simple way.

A limited amount of free drugs with military jiji is a good way for them to come up with.

In order to make the soldiers fight more heroically, the more people they kill on the battlefield, the greater the feats, and the more medicine they can get when they return.

These methods are not only simple to use, but also extremely fast-working.

As for addiction and harmfulness? Who cares?

The soldiers who can survive the war themselves have quite a lot of military merits, and once they become addicted to drugs, it is difficult to get out of them, and at this time, the exchange channel for military merits will be opened and these "contraband" will be placed.

As a result, in this premeditated war, even if the soldiers did not lose their lives, it was difficult to get paid afterwards.

Even they will go to the abyss in the step-by-step induction of the upper echelons, burying their future lives in drugs and turning them into gold coins in other people's pockets.

……

"Addictive things, ordinary people can't resist."

Sean looked at the barracks in the distance and said with some emotion.

Some of the substances in this class of drugs act on people's brains, which in turn are carriers of the soul, and if used for a long time, they can even distort the soul and eventually fail to quit.

After a long period of careful selection and transformation, although their damage to the body is greatly reduced, the addiction and stimulation become stronger.

Professionals have powerful souls, and they are generally not easily affected, and they can even use extraordinary means to relieve the abnormal state in their bodies, and it doesn't matter if they use a small amount of the drugs provided by these troops.

But ordinary people are miserable, unless there are professionals who are willing to help them get rid of the influence, it is not easy to quit on their own.

"Yes, it's really unscrupulous to even put out this kind of thing."

Nolan glanced at Sean, who was repairing the broken equipment on the side, "Sure enough, you are the most comfortable, not only do you not have to go to the battlefield, but you also have a large amount of military merit." ”

"If it weren't for the fact that I didn't have the talent to become a mage, I wouldn't be a warrior just for this kind of treatment."

Sean removed a broken part, flicked a repair spell, and reinstalled it back onto the device.

"Comfortable? Pull it down. ”

Sean adjusted his somewhat distorted energy circuit and said angrily.

"It's safe, but it's not comfortable at all, I don't even have free time every day, so I stare at these things every day."

"If it weren't for the military merits, I would have quit a long time ago, it's really tiring."

Seeing Sean's disgusted look, Nolan's heart was a little sour.

"Safety is enough, and it doesn't matter what we do, no matter what, it's better than working the front line."

"But according to the current situation, it may not be long before the winner is decided, and if I am not dead by then, I must celebrate."

Putting the weapon in his hand aside, Nolan stopped talking and continued to recover the power of qi and blood in his body.

There's still a tough battle ahead, and if you don't adjust your condition to the top, it won't be good if the boat capsizes in the gutter.

Sean also continued to do his own thing, and he could get five thousand military merits every day, which is 50 gold coins, which is much more than the average income of 10 gold coins per day for trainee-level professionals.

He hoped that this war would be fought for a while longer, so that he could get more benefits from it.

However, Sean prefers that the Karis Kingdom side will quickly destroy the enemy, and once the military merit is doubled after the victory of the war, it will be really comfortable.

……

On 21 July, the intensity of the war had decreased slightly, and both sides were already running out of troops, so the fighting was far less wild than it had been.

At the end of the day, the death toll on both sides was only 20,000, the fewest since the war began.

On 22 July, due to the shortage of troops, the benefits of direct confrontation gradually diminished, and a variety of tactics were applied to the front, and the quality of soldiers gradually became more important than quantity, and the death toll was also about 20,000.

On July 23rd, the elite legion that the Kingdom of Karis had been hiding, the legendary Karis Heavy Army, was finally overdue.

A total of 50,000 hoplites joined the battlefield and quickly broke through the defensive lines held by the Wagner Kingdom, resulting in the death of about 50,000 enemy soldiers.

From July 24 to July 27, the war continued, and the Wagner Kingdom urgently transferred a group of soldiers from the rear to participate in the battle, while at the same time continuously transporting a large number of supplies.

On 28 July, due to proper command, a ten-man squad of all apprentice-level professionals from the Kingdom of Karis penetrated deep into the rear of the enemy army, and although only three escaped back, they burned a large amount of the enemy's food and grass.

On July 29, the Kingdom of Karis dispatched all its troops in the vicinity of Victory Pass and launched a final round of general attack. The defenders were completely routed in the face of a shortage of food and grass, and after leaving behind 200,000 corpses, the remnants of the soldiers withdrew from the victory pass.

On 30 July, the enemy soldiers hiding in the Victory Pass were cleared, and the Kingdom of Karis took over the pass completely and began to plan its next move.

On August 1st, a large number of regular-level professionals from the Karis Kingdom side descended on the Victory Pass, commending the soldiers who participated in the battle, and giving a large number of rewards to the survivors.

……

The battle of Victory Pass, which lasted for about a month, finally came to an end, and during this time and in the days that followed, the situation at Victory Pass was repeatedly mentioned by the people of the five countries who participated in the war.

No one will forget the horror of this battle, which directly resulted in the death of two million people, and it is said that the land inside and outside the city was stained red with blood, and the corpses were piled up, and there was not even a place to stay.

Of course, after walking into the Victory Pass in person, Sean knew that the scene here was not as exaggerated as rumored, although the blood-red land was real, but the corpses had already been removed and used, as for the scene of identification or burial, the high-ranking form-level professionals would not care.

……

After entering the city, Sean casually found a place to live temporarily, and felt the fluctuations of the dagger in his arms in the room, and Sean's heart instantly became excited.

The Abyssal Blade can absorb and utilize everything related to the Abyss, including ethereal death, killing, flesh, and more.

The moment he walked into the victory level, the weapon suddenly became extremely active and slowly became stronger as if it were a fish entering the water.

At the beginning, he was still a little worried about being discovered by those full-level professionals who came to the Victory Pass, so he was still worried during that time, and he didn't even dare to go out.

But not long after that, he found that the Abyss Blade seemed to have a certain abyssal characteristic, and it became extremely strong in shielding prophecy spells and spiritual power detection, which made his heartstrings that had been tense relaxed.

Sean didn't know exactly how strong the official-level professional was, but according to the description in the book and his speculation, there was no problem at all in using mental power to cover the entire victory level.

Of course, coverage is just coverage, and if there are no special circumstances, they won't be idle to check your items one by one, so what Sean has to do now is keep a low profile and wait for the war to be announced before finding a way to leave.

Before leaving the Victory Pass, he will not take out the Abyssal Blade to inspect or study it, so as not to attract unnecessary attention and let himself lose the weapon or even his life.

……

To everyone's surprise, the strong men did not seem to have any intention of ending the war after discussion.

On the third day of the Victory Pass, they issued an order to continue the offensive, and the overall target of the offensive was the kingdom of the Wagner Kingdom, which was said to have been unnegotiated, so the war would not end for the time being.

After learning a few things, Sean did not follow the Silver Eagle Legion to continue the expedition.

To be honest, he thinks that this strategy is very unwise, even if the army of the Wagner Kingdom has been defeated, it should have regained some combat effectiveness after a period of rectification.

What's more, the supply of the Wagner kingdom that is fighting on the ground is more convenient, and in addition to the civilians and professionals who are not involved in the war, there are additional city guards that can be mobilized.

However, the orders from above on the side of the Karis Kingdom were very resolute, and the troops below had no way to disobey the orders, so they could only let a small number of personnel stay in the victory pass, while the other legions were integrated and slowly advanced.

Seeing the army go away, a feeling of happiness suddenly rose in Sean's heart, fortunately, he was a trainee mage of the alchemy department, and it was easy to stay in the victory pass after applying.

The rest of the Silver Eagle Legion, including Camillo and Nolan, have left, both in their own hands and in their desire to make a fortune in the war that follows.

There are a lot of towns and villages to conquer, a lot of military exploits can be obtained just by following the army forward, without much thinking, everyone knows that the future journey will make them a lot of money.

As for those who felt that something was wrong, they didn't dare to say anything even if they found something, they just tried their best to hide in the victory pass and shrink their heads, and no longer made other moves.

Sean is naturally one of them, although he doesn't earn much wealth by staying at the victory pass, but he is safe, although he likes interests, he will never be confused by interests.

……

Time passed little by little, Sean refined some high-end potions for the army in the victory pass, and repaired some damaged war equipment from time to time, he used this process to hone his level little by little, and integrate knowledge.

He found that another advantage of being in the middle of the victory level was that he could communicate with many professionals of similar levels and professions, and discuss with each other the knowledge on the way forward.

Such an opportunity is extremely rare.

In small places such as the Kingdom of Karis or the Kingdom of Wagner, the distribution of professionals is quite scattered, and there are often not many apprentice-level professionals in a city, and even fewer of them have the same occupation.

Sean cherishes the time he spends with the others, and the mages in Victory Pass are the most numerous, and they are the wisest of the professions, and a considerable number of them are aware of possible conspiracy.

One day, two days......

1 week, 2 weeks......

Sean gradually became acquainted with the others, most of whom were from the kingdom of Karis or the kingdom of Connery, and it didn't hurt to be friendly with them.

The attacking army went deeper and deeper into the hinterland of the Wagner Kingdom, and Sean also had a faint premonition in his heart.

Maybe it's about to start.

……

On August 17, a series of news came that shocked both sides.

The coalition forces attacking the capital of the Wagner Kingdom were passing through a dangerous place when they found that the logistics supply line had been abruptly cut off, and the army's advance came to a standstill, and gradually had the intention of retreating.

At the same time, a large number of soldiers who had already been in ambush suddenly appeared around and launched an attack on the coalition forces.

The combined forces of the Kingdom of Karis and the Kingdom of Conneli fought valiantly and unyieldingly, but they were still defeated due to various factors, and ordinary soldiers were able to return to the pre-victory level, but the professionals were not much injured.

Immediately afterwards, the Wagner Kingdom did not continue the war, but directly announced its surrender, and expressed its willingness to cede the province of Belloc and the Victory Pass to the Kingdom of Karis and the Kingdom of Connery.

The war, which lasted for more than four months, finally came to an end, and the top leaders of the five countries shook hands and made peace at the victory pass, intending to start post-war negotiations.

Everything was calm, as if no one was dead or injured.
