"Hahahaha! Shatisu is an idiot and a mad dog. It's really interesting to see you lackeys of the Order and his dog-eat-dog fight!" The thick and short man of the two people standing at the front of the encirclement laughed and said: "Master Dafeng Disciplinary Officer, I didn't expect that. Are you going to end up like this? How about it? Do you want to surrender and join our side? Sooner or later, the tyrant in the Order will be finished, and there is no way out with that bastard."

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man next to him said in a deep voice: "Seno can't be kept here, he is too dangerous..."

The short man curled his lips disdainfully: "Just talking."

There was a flash of murderous intent in Sai Nuo's eyes. The opponent's strength had already exceeded that of our own after a night of fierce fighting, and their condition was even better than our own.

If a fight started now, he might be able to fight his way out, but these soldiers behind him...

Sano gritted his teeth slightly, and the Void Terminal next to his ear began to flash - calling for support and resisting until the support arrived was Sano's choice at the moment. The function of remote communication had actually been written into the function library in Void, but it was just earlier It is not open to ordinary void terminals. After all, remote communication requires relatively more computing power. If it is fully opened, it is likely to cause the risk of overloading the void host.

At this moment, Xumi is in wartime. The void terminal in the hands of the rebellious Gilded Brigade has long been unable to access the void host. The idle computing power is used to provide senior executives like Cyno to open up more functions in the void. .

"You have been watching the battle for a long time?" Sai Nuo kept a cold expression and did not take action. If he delays a little longer, fewer people will die. Although he can kill the enemy without batting an eye, he can kill his own people. Always pay attention to it.

"Of course!" the thick short man laughed loudly: "Master Dafeng Disciplinary Officer is really good at it. The Shatisu who accepted the gifts from those fools died in your hands. I'm afraid if you want to run away, we people may not be able to. I’m stopping you because I don’t know whether Master Gale Disciplinary has decided to abandon the lackeys behind you or stay and die together?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers behind Seno suddenly became agitated. Of course they knew the crisis they were facing at this moment. They were already exhausted and facing these mercenaries who were more powerful than them, death was certain. , no one would want to die, not to mention that they joined the Order Academy for the sake of stable income and the opportunity for their family and children to enter the Order Academy first. The loyalty brought by the benefits obviously cannot exceed the fear of life.

Veins bulged in Seno's hands, and the next moment, a wolf howl sounded through the woods, the wolf's face covered his cheeks, and the rune strips wrapped around his arms.

Time can't be delayed any longer. The loyalty of these soldiers is not high. If this continues, it will be even more troublesome if people are distracted!

It's sizzling!

The electric light brought a burning smell to the air, and in the next moment, Sano appeared in front of the short man, and his sharp claws carried the lightning towards his Tianling Cap.

Panic flashed through him, but as the middle-aged man beside him lifted his leg and swept him towards the crowd behind him, Sano's attack unfortunately fell into the air.

But it wasn't over yet. The tall man stomped on the ground, and the ground beneath Seno's feet suddenly cracked.

Zizzi!Seno's figure once again flashed to the side with lightning, and his eyes changed uncertainly as he looked at the man, the owner of the Eye of God?Or is he another evil eye owner who accepted the "help" from the Fools?

At the same time, two more mercenaries with suspected evil-eye items hanging on their waists approached Seno.

"Kill! Kill them all! Damn it! Seno, you dare to attack me!" The short man who was swept into the crowd shouted angrily, and the mercenaries around him also rushed to kill him with weapons. go out.

Seno gritted his teeth, and the lightning swept across in waves. Everyone who came close to him was turned into charcoal and minced meat in the thunder and claws, but the mercenaries who crossed him to kill the soldiers were beyond his care, and even more so. To make matters worse, the mercenaries who had put down their weapons before and chose to surrender also picked up the weapons scattered on the ground and killed the guards around them.

The battlefield is like this. If the ability does not reach a certain level, personal bravery cannot change the direction of the war. Although Sainuo is strong, he is not able to defeat dozens or hundreds of people when three evil eye owners are watching. Moving around under siege, protecting those soldiers...

Boom! !

A bolt of lightning struck down from the clear sky, and the wind blades that followed quickly took away the lives of several mercenaries who were about to kill the soldiers. Finally, three dark golden stone pillars fell, and a slender The blond figure holding a sword landed on the stone pier in the middle.

"Ying!" Sai Nuo was stunned and subconsciously shouted the name of the visitor.

"Seno! Are you okay? We are here to support you!" Paimon, who was flying down from the sky, pinched his waist and yelled with dignity.

Chapter 161 Xumi’s direction

step... step... step...

The soles of the shoes stepped on the soft soil, and while the soil sank slightly, there was also the sound of unobtrusive footsteps.

The raindrops hit the bamboo hat, dripped along the arc to the ground, and finally disappeared.

Gloomy dark clouds pulled the sky lower, and countless iron weapons collided with each other. Countless soldiers screamed and shouted to kill, and the skirmishers just walked on the battlefield in southern Sumeru as if there was no one around.

There was a flash of cold light, and the mercenary who noticed the striking figure of the skirmisher stabbed him with a spear without hesitation.

However, the skirmishers did not hide or dodge. They just raised a finger to block the sharp and blood-stained spear tip.

A small substance like black ink separated the finger and the tip of the spear.

In the astonished look of the mercenary, the skirmisher raised his head. On the face of the handsome young man under the bamboo hat, there was excitement, rage, and even a touch of madness that people couldn't take their eyes away from. No, it was impossible to look away. Gazing, or perhaps it should be called not daring to look away, because at this moment, the extremely dangerous aura of this individual named "Skicker" is the instinct of any creature to lower the alarm level.

"Death, lowly human being!"

The black ink suddenly expanded and turned into a large hole of pure black. The terrifying pulling force swallowed up the mercenary in front of him with a horrified roar in an instant.

Together with the low profile maintained by the skirmishers before, it was torn to pieces by this "black hole".

The sudden huge movement on the battlefield immediately attracted the attention of countless people around him.

In the gaze of these people, the silhouette of the skirmisher rose into the air, and in the midst of maniacal laughter, he detonated the black hole. In the terrifying explosion, the battlefield turned into a white field.

When the figure of the skirmisher slowly landed in the black shield full of cracks, there was no one else here except him, whether it was the mercenary in red or the soldier in the green armor.

"Ah... the air is a lot fresher now." The maniac was subdued and the rage was hidden. At this moment, the skirmisher, who had the most extreme disgust for human beings, said sincerely.

Then, he looked at the figure that appeared not far behind him at an unknown time, and said with a smile: "Are you right, Knox? Or do you prefer the name 'Ling'?"

Knox crossed his arms and looked at him calmly: "It's a shame you can still wake up."

"It's just good luck." The skirmisher spread his hands to him: "A little bit of consciousness remains, who knows why it gradually recovered."

He spoke in a tone as if the being who had been nearly completely wiped out of consciousness and transformed into a container of rage and power was a person who had nothing to do with him.

Knox raised his eyebrows and didn't care much. Whether he had consciousness or not, he could never escape the fate of the container.

"What about you?" Skirmisher said suddenly, with a calm tone as if he was chatting with a friend he has known for many years: "Are you coming to see me now as the executive officer of the Fools, or are you coming to see me as the so-called Teaching Order? Are you looking for me as the dean?"

"It doesn't matter what identity or position I appear here in. Rather than this, I'm more curious about where you are going? Back to the Fools? Or back to the Rice Wife?" Knox asked in a tone similar to that of a skirmisher.

"Ha, can't you see it? I have become an outcast among the fools. As for Rice Wife... haha." The skirmisher smiled and the intense rage in his eyes could not be concealed by a smile.

After a moment, he seemed to have recovered, and he smiled: "If you are willing to let me go, I think I will wander around."

Knox nodded: "Whatever you want, just don't affect the direction of this war in Xumi."

"Of course, the premise is that there is nothing blind to hinder me." The skirmisher's smile was full of hatred and disdain for human beings.

Knox didn't pay attention and turned to leave.

At this moment, the skirmisher stopped him. He smiled and asked, "Actually, I'm also very curious. You obviously hate human beings so much, but why can you still get along with them calmly?"

Knox didn't speak, but just turned around and glanced at him. The temperatureless blue rainbow light in his pupils flickered, but soon it faded away as the black flames around him rose.

Looking at the place where Knox left, the skirmisher smiled. He closed his eyes and carefully experienced the freedom at this moment - the wind blew by and his whereabouts disappeared.

......

"Phew! It's really dangerous, Sano! Are you okay?"

Flying on the battlefield where the fighting stopped and the enemy was finally repulsed, Paimon shouted to Seno, who was panting slightly in the distance, leaning on the Red Sand Staff.

Seno glanced sideways at her, and first gave the order to rest to the soldiers who survived, but most of them fell to the ground exhausted, and then walked towards Paimon and Ying and said, "Thank you."

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, we are friends!" Paimon said with a smile, his hands behind his back.

And Ying did look at the mess in this place, a little silent.

"War..." Ying whispered, then sighed, and looked at Seno: "I heard that the direction of the war is very unfavorable to the Order..."

"At least this is the comparison of combat power on the surface." Sai Nuo said: "After all, the only army owned by the Order Institute is this newly formed Grass God Guards. They hurriedly went to the battlefield without enough training time. The number of people Neither the military nor combat experience is an advantage, and most ordinary people are unable to see the current situation clearly. More and more Gilded Brigades are joining rebellion and protest under the banner of fighting for their own legitimate rights and interests."

"Then what's his attitude?" Ying couldn't help but ask.

"Him?" Sainuo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "I don't know, most of the instructions given to me were given by Master Cao Shen through Elhaysen, and I haven't returned to the Order for a long time. He became the Master of the Order." We haven't had any contact since."

Ying nodded and then asked: "Then do you think he did the right thing?"

Seno was silent for a moment, and then said: "Judging from the form of this war, his strategy of issuing a conscription order to form his own army belonging to the Order and reorganizing the Gilded Brigade is extremely correct."

Ying nodded thoughtfully and continued: "What are you going to do now? I think the soldiers are very tired..."

Sainuo said: "I will lead them to escort a group of prisoners back to Xumi City. Although it is a war period now, the construction work in the rear has not stopped. The expanded Teaching Palace may cover the current Xumi City, and Xumi City Micheng will also be expanded to twice the size based on the existing foundation. With such a large amount of work, that guy from Elhaysen has urged me several times to quickly bring back the prisoners."

"Wow! An academy the size of a whole city?! That's too exaggerated!" Seno's words shocked Paimon, but Yingying was very calm. Maybe it was because she had seen too many big scenes. She said, "That's just right. , let’s go to Xumi City together.”

Chapter 162

"Damn it, the Eye of Ahmar also joined the rebellion. Sure enough, they shouldn't have cured their boss in the first place! If only we could research some device that could kill them all at once..."

As soon as Ying and Paimon entered the hall of the Order, they heard such an angry shout coming from a group of scholars not far away who were having a heated discussion about something.

"Eye of Ahmar?" Paimon, who also heard the voice, couldn't help scratching his head: "Isn't that the Gilded Brigade that bought the canned knowledge of the gods in Ormos Port? We were almost killed back then. They defrauded 50 molas..."

Ying nodded slightly: "So it's not surprising that they would join the rebellion."

I didn’t waste too much time here, even though the atmosphere in the lobby was very different from every previous visit...

I walked to the dean's office on the top floor in a familiar way, and then walked through the maze area to the office area. The familiar layout did not change much, except that there were more documents and reports piled on the luxurious desk than before.

Neither Knox nor Collet were here. What Ying and Pamon saw was Nasida who was looking through the report.

"Nascida, here we come." Paimon waved hello to Nacida.

Nasida also smiled at them and nodded: "I noticed you when you first arrived at the Order. Is there something wrong?"

Paimon said nothing, and looked at Ying with Nasida.

"About the war..." Ying hesitated and did not continue what she said, but Nasida already understood what she meant.

"Are you referring to the situation of this war?" When talking about this topic, Nasida's mood did not get better. She looked slightly sad and said: "Frankly speaking, if there is no interference beyond the specifications, the situation will be very unfavorable to the Order. .”

Of course Ying understood what the super-standard power referred to here was. She couldn't help but wonder: "Then why didn't he take action?" As she said that, she couldn't help but pause, and then hesitated: "Or should we say, the birth of this war? Is this actually the result he wanted?"

"Eh?!" Paimon was shocked by Ying's words. She shouted, "No way! This is a war! Many people will die!"

Nasida was silent for a moment and said to Ying: "I'm surprised that you can think of this level."

Ying shook his head: "After all, with his strength and position, he can immediately end this war in the cradle, instead of letting it grow bigger and bigger like a poisonous dragon. And until now, he has no intention of taking action. I The only reason I can think of is that the current situation is what he wants to see."

Nasida nodded and said with an unknown emotion: "You really know him well..."

Looking at Nasida and then at Ying, Paimon, who was floating in the air, had "confused" written on his face. She waved her hands randomly: "Wait a minute, wait a minute! I'm confused. What Nasida meant was actually like Ying's guess. Like that, the reason why the war breaks out in Sumeru now is actually driven by the spirit?! But why? Isn’t he the dean of the Order Academy?"

After saying that, she couldn't help but get excited and said in horror: "Could it be that this is actually a conspiracy of fools..."

"Don't scare yourself, Paimon." Ying said helplessly: "Ling is indeed thinking about Xumi, didn't he say it before, whether it was Seno, Elhaysen or Tinari? The decrees and orders issued by Ling will be of great benefit to Xumi in the long run. As for the reason why Ling wants this war now, I can roughly guess it."

Having said this, Ying stopped talking and looked at Nasida.

Nasida nodded: "Yes, he is trying to speed up the construction of Xumi, because war can attract most of the unstable armed forces in Xumi to the rebel camp, and a large number of actual battles will quickly strengthen the imperial guards. combat effectiveness, and the scientific and technological progress brought about by the war is also very significant. You should have seen the trend among scholars in the Order Academy recently. The academic world that has been stagnant for a long time is gradually regaining its vitality and excitement... Finally, the progress brought about by the war is The spoils of war and the captive labor force are also part of his plan to speed up the construction of Sumeru..."

Ying summarized it and said: "To put it simply, he wants to purify the Xumi people, strengthen the combat effectiveness of the army, promote the development of Xumi science and technology, solve the funding problem and obtain a large number of cheap labor?"

"Yes." Nasida nodded, and then said solemnly: "But the nature of war itself is bad. Even if it can indeed bring many benefits to Xumi now, these are all based on the people of Xumi. In exchange for death and sacrifice..."

"Why is this... If it were Nasida, she would definitely not choose to exchange people's deaths for these benefits..." Paimon's eyes were full of unbearability.

Ling didn't say anything. Of course, it didn't mean that she agreed with Knox's approach, but she knew that even if she didn't agree or objected, it would be useless, because she knew that few people could do what Ling had already made up his mind to do. You can change his mind. Maybe you could make him change something 500 years ago. As for now... forget it.
