"Damn, I was going to mobilize my men to do this, but I didn't expect that now I have to do it alone......" A certain city lord panted and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he was also helpless about his increasingly fat body - if he had known that something like this would happen today, he would definitely not be so indulgent in eating.

City Lord Sang became more and more determined to lose weight.

In today's situation, he has no more people to mobilize, and if he thinks about it with his toes, he can guess that the other party will never indulge those who have the strength to resist, and wander around the city, hoping that someone will come to save him, which is absolutely unrealistic.

And frankly speaking...... Even if you really have that spare strength, you will never come to save yourself, right!?

The lord of the city knew very well what kind of character and reputation he had accumulated in his usual life - although it did not reach the level of arousing the resentment of the people, but there was no good reputation. I'm afraid that if people know their situation now, those people will fall into the ground.

"That...... City Lord, are you telling the truth?"

"Ah, as I said, this is not an ordinary situation - an unknown enemy has raided the city and slaughtered the guards, and by its nature, it is either a rebellion or an invasion, and it is the worst of kinds. In this case, if you can really contribute to the fight against the enemy, let alone me, if you are looking for the laws of the Empire, your past crimes can also be written off. ”

Several strong prisoners beside the city lord suddenly lit up when they heard this.

This year, he was thrown into prison. The most feared thing is not to be dragged out and cut off the head. Instead, he didn't even remember to cut off his head and pull himself. No one likes to be in such a dark place with a very bad environment. Those who spend the rest of their lives may feel lucky that they will not be killed in the first year or two, but when they stay in this bad place for a long time, even their personalities are prone to deviations, let alone their initial thoughts.

Of course, being pulled out and beheaded is not the outcome they wanted......

"The ugly thing is said - according to the laws of the Empire, you cannot be completely free, even if you are exempt from prison. You must also live under the watchful eye of the parties concerned. The scope of the residence will be limited and cannot be changed at will, there are many prohibitions in the profession you are engaged in, so you don't have to think about it if you have a high degree of freedom, and most importantly, if you commit a crime in the future, you will be sentenced to a heavier punishment...... Hey, don't you listen to me?"

The city lord was very helpless to find that these prisoners who were pulled down by himself were already excited and fanatical. Grab a simple hoe and shovel and start digging.

Those restrictions are nothing to them who have been in this cage for a long time. As long as you can regain your freedom, everything else is easy to say!

In fact. The city lord is already starting to regret it a little.

You know, the guys who are caught in this prison are all real criminals. Some of them may have been caused by a momentary mistake. But more than that, it's guys who don't deserve sympathy...... Let these guys see the light of day again. Is it really good?

“......”

Forget it - the city lord finally sighed to himself, and stopped thinking about it. While using these people to do things for themselves. I was still thinking about killing them or something later, but sure enough, it was still a little infiltrating. Although he thinks that he is not a good person, but if he does this kind of thing too much, he must be punished by God, right?

After a long time in the disguised posture, the city lord found that he seemed to have been affected to a certain extent - when he was still young, he obviously would not be so "hesitant", but then again, what is the use of being decisive in killing?

A ruthless person can't have the last laugh, and he can have the last laugh, but he is ruthless, but he knows when not to be ruthless......

"Remember for me! If you commit a crime in the future, you will basically be convicted of one more degree of guilt -- that is, robbery and wounding can be punished with one charge of murder!

Several people around hurriedly nodded yes - after revealing their strength, these prisoners did not dare to be vain to this seemingly incompetent city lord.

"Isn't there any objection to ......everyone?" the city lord nodded with satisfaction, picked up his shovel, "Work hard! Strive to dig through this prison within an hour!"

Originally, as a prison, it must have been designed with security in mind - of course, the security of a prison is not only to deal with external dangers, but also to be considered from within.

It stands to reason that under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for a prisoner to escape from the prison on his own. Even a man of Shawshank's perseverance could not have escaped, because the prisons of this world are not limited to physical means in terms of means of protection.

Magic is the reason why countless unwilling prisoners are helplessly trapped under iron bars.

As soon as you step out of the confined area, an alarm sounds, and whenever a wall is hit by an object of a certain hardness, it communicates a message to the guards...... It doesn't require too many complicated protection settings, and it is too easy for prisoners with limited means of escape to seal their limited methods.

Today, however, all of these defenses have failed. Even if they are here to knock on the ground, they don't have to worry about attracting the attention of the enemies outside...... Anyway, the original guards have already been killed, aren't they? The only thing to pay attention to is not to let the noise on this side alarm the other party.

Of course, considering the howling and heart-rending guy above, the city lord felt that it would be quite difficult for those enemies to find out about their movements.

"We ...... How long will it take to dig up?"

The attack in everyone's hands was actually the city lord who directly removed a few iron railings and then tied a few stones. The excavation is not easy. To know. For safety, the base of a large area of land around. But they were all deliberately buried with stone slabs! Although the few people selected by the city lord were all relatively good in health. It is estimated that before going to prison, he was also doing the work of dancing knives and guns, but he was also a little unable to do it.

Obviously, the progress is not fast, but the body of the people is very fast. The city lord said that his own strength was relatively high, and he had never been malnourished on weekdays, but how could these prisoners enjoy such treatment as the city lord? Not to mention filling their stomachs, the food could barely be eaten. It's already a blessing!

They are hungry, and the strength they exert is indeed a little unbearable.

"Do you think this prison is so easy to escape?" the lord glared disapprovingly at a prisoner who was already starting to hold on, "Trust me, if you want to enjoy the experience of being overwhelmed by water, you can dig up now." ”

There is a river more than 20 meters wide on it, just dig it out like this? Don't make a fuss, the city lord said that he was a landlubber, and he didn't want to die in such a dark place for this reason.

"Work harder. According to my estimate, we can dig up about another (9) meters. ”

There's still nine meters......

With some resentment, everyone picked up the improvised shovel in their hands and continued to dig the rock. Although they were very eager to escape from the Ascension. But in the absence of a body, it is also powerless.

That's it, when the castle lord finally said the phrase "just dig this way". The prisoners who followed him all the way to dig up directly threw away their tools. Collapsed in the passage, sweating profusely and panting.

"Forget it. I won't force you anymore, I'll dig it myself after that......"

Seeing that these people no longer had the strength to move, the city lord could only dig up by himself.

“......”

The eyes of several prisoners flashed as the moonlight spilled down the narrow opening, but before they could cheer, a soft crouch slipped through the opening of the passage, and with a snap, fell into the crowd.

- It was a corpse.

There were several big holes in his body, blood was pouring in, and the face full of horror made everyone present feel the fear that was about to come out. Without any need for the city lord to warn, they retreated several steps towards the back of the passage.

“...... Looks like you'd better not go out just yet. ”

It's good to die, it seems that it was just a battlefield not long ago - the city lord's heart is also helpless, if this is the case, it means that there are likely to be enemies nearby.

"It's still relatively safe over there...... Well, I won't force you anymore, whether you want to go back for the time being, or go back to the surface now, you can decide for yourself. ”

But the city lord didn't have time to grind. There was really not much time left for her now—it was hard to say how much power he had gotten from the hand of the passing magician if it had been tonight. When the sun comes up, there is no chance of him getting a game back.

Originally, he wouldn't be so desperate, but if he couldn't make substantial contributions and merits, he would definitely be beaten down the cliff by some guys who didn't like him. There is no need to guess too much, and the city lord also consolidates his imagination of what kind of series of crimes he will be branded with......

"Well, what the hell am I trying to do here?"

The city lord can't help but feel that he can be regarded as a typical example of "living tired", right? Obviously, there is no pressure to survive, but he has to worry about this and that, and he is always on guard against someone stabbing him in the back...... In the same situation, others can save their lives first, but they have to work hard to resist the invaders and risk their lives like those heroes in the textbooks.

"Luck wasn't too bad, though. ”

The exit to the tunnel he had dug was a battle, but it seemed that there were no enemies around. Probably because of ...... All the manpower is now used to suppress all the resistance forces in the city, right? After all, this border city is not developed, but it is not small.

No matter how strong the strength of those invaders is, there is an unavoidable weakness in terms of numbers. It is impossible to suppress the forces of resistance in an all-round way without distributing all the forces that are limited at hand.

"By the way, how the hell should I use this thing?"

The lord carefully took out an object from his bosom. Observing the tiny "decorations" and "lines" on it with some distress: "I remember, she said it. To use this thing, you should first do this......"

In the memories of the city lord-

"First of all, you have to twist this thing a few times in Kabakaba!"

"This is even if the safe mode is turned on. Otherwise, any misoperation may cause catastrophic consequences...... Well, after the first step, the next step is to 'wipe and rub' and activate all the switches!"

"After that, it's simple, just set it casually like this, and set the time for the delay trigger!"

"Finally, put it under the moonlight. Just wait for it to take effect - be careful, this thing can only be done under the moonlight! Time is limited, and you have a lot of conditions, I can only use some foreign objects a little, although the efficiency of moonlight is not as good as that of sunlight, but it is better than stable dìng reliable, just to meet your needs......"

......

"Why don't you understand the previous steps except for the last paragraph?"

The city lord looked at the strange "magic guide" in his hand, which was said to have "super destructive power", and his heart was troubled - how should this be used?

......

"What the hell did you give that fat man!?"

Vlad looked at the countless silver rays that fell from the sky. Hit his own men accurately, and he couldn't help but crush his head - the only thing to be thankful for was that the intensity of these attacks was not very high, as if due to the power output. It was only able to inflict damage on the heavily armed Celestials, and there were no casualties yet......

Still, watch these attacks radiate from the sky. The visual impact is not small at all.

"Ah, the magic transformation of the Moonlight Cannon......" NONO calmly uttered a series of words that Vlad couldn't understand. "Although there is no zài lunar microwave emitting device in this world, it is only with the help of elements that are free from the world. A similar effect can be achieved with guò moonshine as a medium. On the basis of the prototype, I made a lot of modifications, and now this is just a simplified version, by the way, I made a form similar to a mine-like activation, as far as the actual situation is concerned, it has nothing to do with the attitude of the prototype's 'cannon'. ”

This is still due to the fact that during the time I was in the elf race, I learned some of the secret methods of the elf race.

In the elven clan, there is a kind of mystery that calls for the moonlight to strike at the enemy and burn the evil, and NONO has some "small means", and when he consulted the information, he also learned about this secret of not being passed on by the way. Now, NONO has made such a prop for the castle lord, and he is not trying to do it.

"As long as you carry more than a certain quality of metal products, you will be judged by the system and cause the attack of Moonlight? Anyway, you have almost collected the arms of everyone in this city, so the ones who will be attacked now are basically your subordinates......

Time was pressing, and NONO couldn't make any high-intelligence judgment system, so he chose such a simple judgment method - anyway, innocent civilians generally wouldn't wear more than ten kilograms of steel on their bodies, right?

"I don't know what you're talking about, but why do you want to give him such a thing!"

"It's itchy hands, it just so happened that I just learned some new technology, and it is a relatively cutting-edge magical civilization in the earthly world, so I always want to try some ideas - there is a big wrongdoer here, and he is willing to pay a lot of money to ask me for a favor, so I made a favor. ”

“......”

Hold on! Hold on! Vlad kept urging himself in his heart that he must not lose his temper at this woman!

This woman had once annihilated a fleet with her own hands, and the losses caused to the countries of the Heavenly Realm were even more incalculable, and now the losses she suffered were nothing......

"Something seems wrong. ”

NONO noticed that the moonlight from the sky seemed to be gradually changing in intensity. At first, it was just Cheng dù that those Celestial Realm people were tired of coping, but it didn't take long for Cheng dù to reach a level that could break through their defenses!

"Gone on a rampage......

WITHOUT TOO MUCH GUESSWORK, LOOKING AT THE SCENE IN FRONT OF HIM, NONO HAD ALREADY GUESSED WHAT WAS GOING ON THE CITY LORD'S SIDE: "LITTLE VLAD, YOUR SUBORDINATES ARE IN A LITTLE TROUBLE. ”

"Huh?"

"That stupid city lord seems to have made some mistakes in the process of setting up, although the device was successfully activated, but it entered an endless loop...... Well, this factor was not taken into account before...... Now, the power of the moonlight collected by this device has exceeded the output power, and the strength of the moonlight attack has increased, which means that the control system is almost about to collapse......"

it!

Vlad's heart was shocked, and then he saw that two of his higher-flying subordinates were attacked by several moonlight rays at the same time, and they were directly broken through the upper limit of the armor's defense, and fell from the sky with a wail, turning into two fireballs.

"The optimization process of this system is too bad!"

"Don't worry about it, it's a prototype anyway, and I won't release a new patch...... So this device will definitely be scrapped, there is no future~"

“......”

Rumble!

There was a sudden burst of noise in the distance.

"What's that!!!"

Vlad looked at the huge figure that came out of the smoke and dust, and could no longer be calm.

"Hmm...... Can too high a concentration of moonshine energy cause such a result?...... Well, it's worth researching...... Wait, don't be in such a hurry......!!"

Before NONO could finish speaking, Vlad had already taken to the air and flew towards the huge monster that was gradually forming in the distance.

"Alas, I guess I'm going to have to suffer, this reckless boy. (To be continued......)
