Our family is in decline

Chapter 682 Growth

A group of soldiers came here during Leonard's call, but before they took over the looters, Disma suddenly pointed at the empty wooden pile and said something to the looters. .

"You need to pick one of you to go up. I will choose the worst among you. Now tell me who has done the most bad things."

This situation directly made the plunderers look panicked, and their intense uneasiness had taken away their sanity.

Didn't you agree to go to jail? Why is this still there?

Driven by the desire to survive, they betrayed their teammates without mercy.

"Him!" One of the robbers suddenly raised his hand and pointed at another person, "He has done the most bad things."

For a moment, other people also reacted and pointed at that person.

"That's right! It's him."

"Everything was done by the boss and him forcing us."

"That's right, we didn't do anything, he did it all."

As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist friend. It is better for you to die alone than for us to die.

The plunderer who was pushed out by them was panicked for a while, and he was arguing something subconsciously.

"It's not me...it's not me..."

The fear of being accused by so many people instantly seized his will. He didn't want to be hung on it...

"Shut the hell up," Disma shouted to suppress those guys, then turned to look at the person who was pointed out and said, "Now I'll give you a chance to see who has committed the most crimes."

"He killed, he raped, he..."

That person seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and immediately revealed all the bad things that others had done.

Others were unwilling to give in and began to make random accusations, and the situation suddenly turned into a mess.

Only then did Leonard and others understand that there are differences between human beings. They were all struggling for survival. Even killing people was just a matter of shooting and sword. They never meant to torture other people, let alone just for fun. kill.

And the things these guys committed even made them feel scared. You can imagine how evil they are.

"They must be punished!"

Junia couldn't bear it anymore, her face looked a bit ferocious with her gritted teeth, and she really wanted to pick up the torch and kill these guys.

Even Laura, who thought she was cold-blooded, couldn't help but feel sick. She was the killer of the Earl's Eagles.

The judgment was soon made, and one of the guys who was basically involved was chosen.

"It's just you."

Disma waved, and the soldiers came up and grabbed the man. Regardless of his wails, they tied him to a wooden stake and hung him up.

The person in charge of registration immediately wrote down the charges without even being able to fit them on a piece of paper.

He put the thing aside, and at the same time the verdict marked Hamlet's law enforcement. Anyone who dares to put it down is fighting against Hamlet and will be at your door immediately.

No matter how the plunderer resisted, he was still hung up in the face of absolute strength. On the contrary, the remaining ones breathed a sigh of relief and even couldn't help but laugh.

Damn you escaped...

But driven by those soldiers, he didn't have too many thoughts and walked towards the town step by step.

The guy who was left behind struggled on the wooden stake like a squirming maggot, but Hamlet's skill in hanging people was also time-tested. There was no point of borrowing force at all, and the harder he struggled, the tighter he became.

I wanted to ask for help but my mouth was blocked, so I could only whine.

But the spectacle kept attracting more people, including the scavengers who followed.

People are full of curiosity, and when some people gather around, more people will be attracted.

Because this is the periphery of the ruins and there are a large number of Hamlet troops, so although everyone is a little cautious, there is no exaggerated resistance like before.

The adventurers who came closer were a little curious after seeing this scene, and they came over to watch, including Scorpion and the others.

"Captain, what does it say?"

Scorpion repeated a few simple sentences, which immediately resonated with the rest of the team.

"Damn it!"

Even teammates who had negative feelings toward Hamlet because of his previous arrest couldn't help but agree.

Others were illiterate and couldn't understand, but they heard Scorpion's explanation and it quickly spread.

"What a death!"

"Hahaha! Got caught."

"Hamlet, you did well!"

However, even in this one-sided discourse, not everyone is questioning it.

"Who knows if this is true, what if those Hamlet people were the robbers? They took away..."

"Fuck you!" The young man's anger was not extinguished. When he heard that someone was trying to defend those scum, he immediately stood up and said, "The guy who was hanging just attacked us with a group of people. Fortunately, Hamlet Sir, save us."

"You think so? Who do you think you are? It's just a dog."

There is no doubt that these words stimulated the young man, and the accumulated emotions burst out in an instant that were difficult to suppress.

The will is being tested... Tyranny!

He directly took out the musket from his waist. This time he knew how to cock the hammer and almost didn't hesitate to get close and fire.

"boom!"

A gunshot that suddenly exploded without warning immediately caused all those people to panic.

After everyone dispersed a little, they saw that the guy who was so angry just now had his chest stained red and fell to the ground, spitting bubbles.

This scene is a bit shocking, why did you suddenly take action?

There is no doubt that the boy learned something from Disma. When the gun is taken out, it is destined to shoot, otherwise, don't take it out.

At this time, the smoke from the musket in the young man's hand had not even dissipated. Feeling the force coming from his hand and the fearful looks of those around him, he seemed to understand something.

As mentioned before, most of these people were in a team. When they saw their teammates dead, other people came up and wanted to take action. It was obvious from their appearance that they were not scavengers.

"I said it's no wonder you want to slander Hamlet. It turns out you want to rob others too."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"What? You don't have the guts to enter the ruins, but you have the guts to plunder. What are you afraid of?"

The boy who was trapped in violent torture kept saying some words to stimulate those guys, and there was no doubt that he was right.

Who is willing to pick up trash along with me? It's tiring and hard and you can't make much money, but you're here to get rich.

Many of these people were robbers, and now that they saw Hamlet actually cracking down on such behavior, they were naturally unwilling to accept it, thinking that their financial path had been cut off.

Now that I'm being told that I'm anxious, I want to take action. Once you fire the gun, you'll be like a piece of shit. I'll see if I don't kill you.

"This is Hamlet, if you dare to touch me, you will be the next one to hang up."

The young man refused to give in, and a scolding immediately made those guys hesitate. They were just scraps, but they didn't dare to touch Hamlet, so they had no choice but to retreat.

But his eyes before leaving were also full of resentment.

"Boy, you are causing trouble." Some mercenaries still admired the young man's courage and couldn't help but remind him.

Who knew that the young man didn't care at all, with a carefree smile on his face.

"Fuck him! I'm not afraid of him. I want to sign up to join Hamlet's army. If he's brave enough, he'll come to the military camp to find me."

"Hahaha!"

These words immediately aroused laughter from everyone. No wonder they dared to do this. They had already thought of a retreat, but this was indeed the best solution.

People are social creatures, and order is determined by the interests of most people, not to mention that they are weak, threatened by those guys, and have an even stronger hatred for these evil plunderers.

So we should know how to pay high respect to Hamlet, the maintainer of order.

They can't change anything, but they will spread the word quickly, and no one is redundant in Lance's plan.

This is part of the plan...

There are many artificial wooden piles on the edge of the ruins. This is an experimental device made by Hamlet to test the danger of the ruins.

There is one at every distance, some have been tied to the wooden stakes, waiting for the arrival of night, and some are empty, waiting for him...

Most people only feel the effect of order when they return to the town. At least in the town, they don't have to worry about someone suddenly robbing them, or someone taking advantage of them.

When I saw the police patrolling the area before, I felt like they were being controlled, and everything seemed to be restricted.

But now the pressure caused by the out-of-control scenes in the ruins has become nothing. On the contrary, seeing the police brings a feeling of safety.

There are people in this town who recycle all kinds of scrap metal. If you have any good stuff, you can go to the antique shop.

When night comes, the town changes from its deserted state during the day and becomes lively.

The guys in the tavern started bragging about what treasures they had found in the ruins and what good things they had.

It's not surprising that there were copper coins and silver coins among them, but gold coins were found. This news made other adventurers crazy, and their envy, jealousy, and hatred were useless. Now they just want the day to come quickly, and they also want to get rich.

Gold coins actually appear in the ruins?

Could Lance's guess be wrong and the ruins really be an untapped treasure chest?

This brings us to why Lance put his personal guards at the ruins instead of taking them to the old house?

The reason is that some things can only be done by them, and only those with full loyalty can meet the mission requirements.

Because in addition to obtaining the progress of those adventurers, their mission is to enter the ruins and hide the money in those corners.

There are bags of copper coins, scattered gold coins, silver coins, or some less valuable jewelry citrine placed here and there.

For example, the backpack wrapped in sacks that fell on the ground during the escape, or some crates, torch holders, etc., just stuff it in anyway.

These are like fishing for nests. If no harvest is found, the adventurers will soon disperse, but as long as these are left for them to find, they can always keep their enthusiasm.

The fantasy of getting rich shrouded in their hearts, then they will become the sword in Lance's hand to clean up the ruins.

This matter cannot be done by ordinary troops. If the information is leaked, it will raise questions. Only the loyal enough Guards can carry out it.

Everything is under Lance's control, he is professional at playing with people's hearts.

Compared to the excitement of those people, the young man who returned to the town also exchanged the hidden silver ring for money.

Facing those guys who came from the same village, although they were timid, the young man finally divided the money according to the original agreement.

"Brother, are you really going to join the army?"

Others were naturally happy to get the money, but some people couldn't help but ask about what they said before.

"Yes, I want to join Hamlet, and I want to bring my family over. The only way is to join the army."

The young man realized that without power, he would be a piece of fat meat at the mercy of others in the ruins, and he did not want to suffer that kind of thing again.

For the sake of many years of friendship, the young man still reminded these people.

"We were lucky enough to meet Hamlet's enforcer this time, but the ruins are so big. We are not so lucky every time. I advise you not to think about it and just find a job here."

"Brother is right. I won't go to the ruins anymore. I'm lucky this time. Who knows what will happen next time."

"I heard that the town is recruiting people for construction sites, so I'm going to take a look."

"It's not bad to be an apprentice. It's a bit harder but you can learn skills. When the time comes, you can go back to your hometown and open a blacksmith shop or work as a carpenter."

In a few words, everyone seemed to have planned their future. They would work to make money and then take over their families.

This is the siphon effect the city has on its surrounding areas, who would rather be under Hamlet's protection than the chaos of the outside world.

But not everyone is willing to give up their dream of getting rich. Today's income from picking up garbage is the most money they have ever received in their lives.

And this was just an ordinary ring. When they returned to the town, they heard all kinds of stories about who picked up something, who dug something and became rich overnight.

It's like there is some kind of magic driving them, this kind of power is called greed.

"When we came here with the caravan, my eldest brother promised to take us to make a lot of money together."

"That's right, brother, didn't you hear what those people found? The gold coins are on the ground waiting for us to pick them up."

"Why are you afraid of those guys? They were all frightened when you shot them, brother."

Those people started to encourage, some talked about feelings, some talked about those treasures, and some wanted to dispel their worries.

But the young man didn't want to promise them anything. He just said, "You can go if you want. I won't stop you."

After all, he is not a fool. He saw these people clearly in the previous incident.

It’s okay not to have so-called feelings that are so fragile in the face of difficulties!

What I say now is just to push myself out and use myself to protect them.

He didn't bother to say anything more about this, as everyone had already separated.

It's just that the young man still underestimated the inexplicable psychology of those people. Those people refused to go when they saw him, so they took a fancy to the musket on his waist.

"Brother, you won't need it anyway, so just leave that gun to us."

"That's right, this way we can have some means to deal with those robbers."

"..."

The young man couldn't help being stunned, looking at them he felt cold...
