Calculation 3
Lucas was a proud aristocrat.
In the face of the sudden attack of the bandits, he did not say the idea of surrendering, and he never had the idea of saving his life by surrendering.
Surrender to lowly bandits?
That's an insult!
Fight to the death to the end.
Or avoid the humiliation of defeat and die at his hands!
If it weren't for the courage of Mir, Lucas wouldn't even say anything to let him escape.
As for the revolt?
I'm sorry.
He was already old, and it was impossible for him to kill too many people, and he could not cover the retreat of his family's people, so while he still had the strength, Lucas could only choose to send his family's people on the road.
The devil knows what will happen if he is caught by a bandit.
Exploded?
Tortured and killed?
Or torment them alive in laughter until death?
"Don't worry, maybe things will turn around. Mir began.
"How can there be a turnaround? These crazy bandits don't care who we are, and they are not afraid of the power of the nobility.
In this case, where is the turning point?"
Lucas wanted to persuade the four sons not to be whimsical, and tried to get out of here while they could escape.
What he didn't know was.
It's all Mir's design, and the bandits are his people at all.
"It's okay, I'm going to talk to those bandits, maybe I just need to pay some money to save our lives?"
Mir continued: "Everything is negotiable. Give me a chance, okay?"
Lucas frowned, and just wanted to angrily reprimand these four sons, saying that as nobles, how could they compromise with those bandits!
But suddenly seeing the hopeful eyes of his wives made him think a lot, and he couldn't help sighing.
"Okay, okay, you go, we'll stand at the door and wait for you to succeed!"
"Hmm. ”
Under the eyes of everyone, Mir went out.
Everyone is expecting his success.
In Lucas's hand, a long sword made of steel, was held in his hand.
No one knows what Lucas is thinking.
Others thought it was Lucas's final battle after his defeat. But they didn't know that if Mir also failed, it would not be those vicious bandits who would kill them first, but this seemingly gray-haired head of the family.
The atmosphere is tragic.
Valery, who only knows everything, is trying to control herself from laughing.
"Boss?"
When the thieves saw Mir approaching, they hurriedly approached.
Mir made a silent gesture and walked a few meters forward, then looked back.
At a distance of more than ten meters, it should be impossible to hear the conversation between them.
"Which of you killed Jody?" Mir asked first.
At this question, the bandits were very embarrassed, and their expressions turned into smiles.
"This ......"
"What's wrong?" they were all bloodstained, and Mir couldn't read their faces.
As among the bandits, the status is second only to his Jerry.
"Boss, look ......"
Jerry raised his hand, revealing Jody, who had been caught by most of his face.
Behind him, one after another, there were people holding a blur of flesh and blood, filled with mosaics, from part of Jody's skull.
Seeing this scene, Mir understood in an instant, and the corners of his eyes twitched:
"Let me guess......
After you killed Jody, you decided to turn against you in order to get my reward. The knife stabbed at his own people, and then under the scramble, an accident happened, and this head became a piece?"
In a few words, the embarrassment of these bandits was said, and they couldn't help but nod in unison.
Mir gave them a kind smile:
"It's very simple, since it is broken into pieces, then the reward I promised will be divided directly and equally. ”
"Really?!" someone said in surprise.
"Wait! Well, I have it too!" and some others took the opportunity to stand up.
Mir stared at them with a smile, making the commotion of the bandits feel that something was wrong and gradually shut up.
The men were furious by his gaze.
At this time, Mill spoke.
"You think I'm going to say that?" his eyes suddenly turned cold.
The creepy ghost, because of emotional instability, faintly reveals from the body. The eerie cold aura made the bandits sweat and hair, and the living bodies were warning them to flee from this monster.
"You don't understand your position. Mir spoke.
"To me, you're my own dog, who allowed you to kill your own companions for the sake of a few bones?!
It's just me!!
You can only do it if I say yes!"
"This is the last time this will happen again......"
Mir smiled at the terrified bandits.
"I will show you that sometimes it is more painful to live than to die. ”
His tone was soft.
It's so light that it seems to say: something for breakfast.
But this lightness scared the bandits into sweating.
"Know... Got it. The bandits said in unison.
Mir then glanced at the bandits and asked, "Are you still alive?"
Now there are only about twelve bandits left, and the number is obviously less.
"Yes, yes. Jerry replied aloud, and he was also frightened.
in the crowd.
Ma Magi, who was silent, quietly threw away the things in his left hand and decided to stand up again after a while.
Mir thought for a moment.
These bandits, who originally numbered more than twenty or thirty people, did not die in the battle with the enemy, but were killed by their own companions, and only half of them died.
I have to admit that these people are really crazy enough.
But what else can the remaining twelve bandits do?
It's no longer suitable for fighting.
They are just ordinary people, they have never cultivated anything, and they could still rely on the number of people to crush the enemy, but now they have half of them, but their combat power is more than half of them.
Compared with the scale of twenty or thirty bandits, the only twelve bandits left are like cats and dogs, not on a scale.
"It's come to this, just let them all go to practice an external skill, such fierce guys, I remember that there is an external skill that is quite suitable for them. Mill thought to herself.
In reality.
Those Lucas and his party, who were watching, saw Mir walking over, but he was not killed, he looked like he was talking, and the flame of hope in his heart was ignited.
"It can be successful, it can be successful!"
"Great!!"
"So we don't have to die, right?!"
The servants and wives behind Lucas cheered, but he remained calm and not agitated by the slightest hint.
Soon, I don't know what Mir said to the bandits.
The bandits retreated.
When Mill came back, first of all his mother, Aurora, pounced on her, her face flushed with excitement, and she said proudly:
"Well done! worthy of my son!!"
The others nodded approvingly and praised a few words.
"That's right. ”
"Sure enough, a good-looking man is also full of wisdom, and he sent the enemy away in a few words. ”
"Aurora, you've given birth to a good son!"
Mir's eyes twitched, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable with the people who were coming around.
He came to Lucas.
Lucas looked the four sons in front of him up and down, as if he knew him for the first time.
"What did you tell them?"
"I told them that we could use our money to sell our lives, and incidentally mentioned the consequences of killing the nobles.
And then......
The bandits agreed to my offer of spending their lives. Mir casually made up a reason, and they didn't fail to hear it anyway, and he could make up whatever he wanted to talk to the bandits.
Although Lucas felt that something was wrong, the facts were in front of him, and he believed it and asked, "Then how much money do we have to pay so that they won't attack again?"
"Seven hundred gold coins. He casually quoted a price.
"Seven Hundred ?!!"
This is sky-high.
Especially since it was looted not long ago, this territory can't come up with so much money.
"Don't worry, they'll give us a day to prepare, and we can find mercenaries to protect us. Mir also knew that the price he was quoting was high, but if he didn't, it didn't feel real.
Mercenaries are a group of people who dare to do anything for money.
Lucas shook his head and said, "We are at least three days away from the next city where mercenaries exist, and even if we ride over, it will take a day and a half, and it will be too late." ”
They were in a more remote area, cities ruled by higher nobles, not far away, but not so easy to reach.
Mir naturally knows this.
He said it on purpose.
Those bandits had lost the crowd advantage, and he also needed a group of men to do things for him, so he planned to let those bandits go on the elite route.
In order to facilitate the rule and management, he needs to find a reason to let those bandits be whitewashed and stay by his side.
"That's okay, I remember once in the forest, I met a group of humans who lived in the forest, a village without aristocracy, and I could try to convince them to help us. ”
"Do you have faith?"
"Naturally. ”
At that time, he would say that after he found the people in the village, when he brought them back, he "coincidentally" encountered bandits, and after a fight, many people in the village died.
To compensate for their "sacrifice", Mir brought back the people of those villages and gave them a place to settle down.
What do you think?
Reasonable, right?
The next afternoon.
After hearing Mir's explanation, Lucas looked at the dozen or so bandits who were forced to wear animal skins standing below, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Mir, you did a great job, solving the crisis of our family's extinction, just like I have always had great expectations for you, and you have also shown your ability as you wished.
Now that Jody is dead, and Barlow doesn't know where the person is, you have become the only man in the family who can stand up, and I want you to be my heir and inherit the position of the next head of the family. ”
