After listening to his father's narration, Jacob's expression was a little dignified. Although he couldn't accept this absurd fact, he could understand why his father made such a compromise.

"Father, is this really the only option?"

"If there were other options, I would naturally not join forces with those scoundrels. The kingdom is not like the empire. Although those damned imperialists are greedy and aggressive, the centralization they promote is indeed worse than our kingdom. The enfeoffment system is more advanced. Our Crude family is almost fighting against the entire empire alone, so the king and a few neighboring territories will give us some support. Other lords will not support us until we really fight a big war. Soldiers."

Facing the harshest reality, Jacob was completely silent.Father also had no choice, so he was forced to make a compromise.But Jacob still couldn't help but ask a question again and again.

Is there really no other way?

End of this chapter

Regarding this report letter, Duke Crude's attitude is very clear, that is to continue to pretend to be confused, just pretending that he has never seen it before.

It's not that the duke never thought about eradicating crime and evil, and supporting the development of a decent industrial and commercial economy, but the situation in Yanmu City has been long-standing, and the current situation has already been formed by the previous generations of dukes.But in his generation, the military threat from the Southern Empire is getting higher and higher day by day, the Duke not only needs military expenses, but also needs stability.

So no matter how bad the order is, it is still order, and recklessly breaking the old order is a truly fatal problem!

However, the Duke didn’t want to take care of it, which didn’t mean others didn’t take care of it. As soon as Badan Crud finished explaining the truth to his son Jacob, he saw a subordinate rushing in and reported a piece of “bad news” to himself.

The God of War Cult in Yanmu City suddenly assembled their Guardian Knights, and under the leadership of Priest Nomen, they raided a tavern in the north of the city.

Hearing this news, Jacob subconsciously glanced at the map full of markings. There was indeed a circled tavern in the north of the city, and he had vaguely guessed something in his heart.

The same report letter and map were also received by the local War God Sect in Yanmu City, and they were "delivered precisely" to Nuomen himself.The fallen leaves were directly separated by hundreds of meters, and accurately threw the envelope bag into the window of Nuomen's bedroom, smashing Nuomen who was praying in the room at that time.

Different from the duke who has benefited from gang forces, Norman is upright and clean. After reading the contents of the report letter, regardless of the swelling on the back of his head, he immediately summoned all the guardian knights to go to the report letter Investigate the cult meeting place closest to them.

If the content of the letter is true, then Nuomen will never sit idly by.

The actions of the God of War Sect naturally spread to the Duke. He knew about Nuomen. When his father was still the bishop of Yanmu City, he complained to the old Duke about his son He is a single-minded person, and being upright is a good thing, but he was obviously too upright, which caused the old bishop a headache.

If this matter really caused him to make a fuss, it might be difficult to end it simply.

"Father, do you want to stop that guy?"

As soon as these words came out, Jacob himself felt very awkward.Originally, he also wanted to be like Nuomen, standing up to punish rape and eliminate evil without hesitation, but his father had just told him how deep the water in Yanmu City was, which made him feel very entangled for a while.

On the contrary, the old Duke's reaction was quite calm. Since Nuomen already knew about it, let him continue to make trouble. It's not a bad thing to come here once in a while.After all, the duke mainly took advantage of those evil forces, and didn't really work together, so he had to beat them from time to time in addition to covering up, lest these bastards get too complacent.

"Jacob, you bring a team over there, and say... you also received a report to investigate, and you can do whatever you want at that time, and you don't have to cover anyone up, just keep an eye on it so that no one gets killed."

"Yes, father."

"Go."

After a task was arranged for his son Jacob, the old prince then sent some henchmen to deliver letters.There are only 50 guard knights under Nuomen. It is impossible to raid the dozens of meeting places marked on the map at the same time. As long as those guys move faster, at most they can make Nuomen Destroy three or five, so they won't be wiped out all at once.

Afterwards, I came out to talk to a muddleheaded person, and invited all the forces to come out to have a chat, and the matter was almost over.

And the facts are indeed as judged by the Duke, the furious Nomen did destroy five meeting places one after another and seized a lot of divine wine.At least on the surface, this thing is illegal, and it is a shady contraband, so once it is discovered, it will be destroyed in public on the spot.

However, Nuomen was weak after all, and his actions did not get the cooperation of others. Therefore, the brotherhood who reacted immediately transferred the holy wine in the remaining assembly halls, leaving the God of War knight in vain.

Afterwards, the Duke invited Nuomen's immediate superior to drink tea. He first "thanks" the God of War Cult for Nuomen's righteous deed, and then gently reminded the other party that if such a thing happens in the future, please remember to inform the lord himself before doing anything. One word, don't make them passive like this time.

The bishop naturally understood the Duke's implication, and quickly said that when he went back, he would definitely have a good chat with Nuomen.

As for the fraternity, the duke also made an appointment, but after the meeting, instead of comforting him, he scolded him head and face, directly throwing the blame on the fraternity for being too arrogant.No matter how you put it, it is an illegal business that cannot be seen in the light. It is best to cover it up on weekdays. If there is another time, as the lord, it is not easy to protect them.

The matter suddenly became such an uproar, and the brotherhood was actually in a daze.Some people were keenly aware that there might be an insider behind this matter, and the level must not be low, at least a senior director, or even an elder.

You must know that at this moment in time, the election of the new president is imminent. As long as this matter is operated a little, it can become dirty water poured on dissidents.

However, the high-level Brotherhood didn't know it at this time, and this was just the beginning.

The damage caused by the report letter to the Brotherhood of the Black Hand was not that great. It was nothing more than five assembly halls and several hundred liters of "divine wine". .

For such a result, Lu De is not surprised at all, anyway, he still has a bigger wave of "pills" to feed to the Brotherhood.

That night, led by Lude himself, the heavily armed Heroic Spirit team came to the outskirts of the Mir Mine in the north of the city.This is the only and largest drug manufacturing factory of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand. The mining area is heavily guarded, and there is a master Leopold in charge.

After quietly finishing off a few sentries standing guard, Lude occupied a commanding height overlooking the entire mining area on the outskirts, where he observed the enemy's situation.

The entire mining area is located in the center of a sunken valley. The mine cave is located below a nearly vertical cliff. The entrance of the cave is surrounded by five-meter-high stone walls on three sides. There are guards standing guard at the top of the wall, which is heavily guarded like a small fortress.

It is said that there are more than 300 defenders in the interior, which are quite well equipped and have magicians. If the general army is used to besiege, there is no three to five times the strength advantage, so it may be difficult to fight down.

Lude naturally didn't have that many troops, and the total number of soldiers he could have was less than twenty, but he was very confident that within half an hour, he would razed this fortress-like mine to the ground!

End of this chapter

Behind Lude, twelve heroic spirits headed by Alvette are ready to go. Each of them is wearing cool armor and weapons, all of which are "artifacts" from the hands of the three sisters, tailor-made for each heroic spirit. The exclusive equipment created can maximize the strength of the battle angel.

At the beginning, Lude really wanted to use the abilities of the three sisters to quickly realize industrialization, and then mass-produce modern-day guns and firearms to arm the regular troops in Pine Tree Town. He will lead this army to sweep the four directions and teach What do the natives of the other world mean by "the times have changed".

Anyway, in this world, the mainstream of the mortal world is still swords and magic, and the development of weapons and equipment does not need to completely replicate the development route of the earth. Therefore, Lude also fiddled with a lot of long guns and short cannons according to his own preferences. Ego stuff.

But after a short period of excitement, Lude who calmed down began to think about the disadvantages of doing so.When he thought of using these weapons to equip the peasant soldiers in Pine Town, he couldn't help but think of the famous scene of "the black sorghum handing the AK47 to the orangutan".

And there is another very embarrassing problem, that is, even if these guns are enchanted and strengthened by the three sisters, they are only sharp weapons for killing people, and they can't hurt the gods at all.

Lude still still remembers that when everyone tried shooting the new gun made by the three sisters in the underground palace, Aina didn't wait for Lude to demonstrate how to use it, so she excitedly grabbed a revolver and made a very deadly "reverse gun". To the gun", and unconsciously pulled the trigger.

But after the gunshot, the scene of flying flesh and blood did not appear. Lu De saw in astonishment that Aina was standing there with someone else, and the bullet that had been fired was actually blown away by her chest.

Therefore, Lu De adjusted the original equipment development plan. For the time being, he did not consider deploying a large-scale mortal army, but first produced some enhanced special equipment in small batches to arm the heroic spirits who are combat-type angels. This is The "Heroic Spirit Armament" used by Alvette and the others.

However, the main attackers tonight are not these heroic young ladies, but another "new equipment" - rockets.

In terms of technology, the batch of rockets that the three sisters rushed to work overnight are essentially a large sky monkey, with an effective range of about five kilometers. The accuracy depends entirely on chance, and only the power is acceptable.

This was originally Lude's idea on the spur of the moment, and he didn't expect the three sisters to come up with "Guardian-2" immediately, so it's fine as long as it's usable.

A total of [-] rockets have been supported by wooden frames. The three sisters are calculating the angle of projection by hand, and strive to strike the entire mining area with a round of salvo.

The single precision is not enough, so it depends on the quantity to make up.Fire coverage is a good habit!

At this time, the eldest sister Atropos gave Lude a thumbs up, indicating that everything is ready and the rockets can explode at any time!

"Then let's get started."

At the Mir Mine at this time, the guards did not know that they had been targeted several kilometers away, and most of them were sleeping in the barracks.

As the largest drug-making workshop of the Brotherhood, the Mill Mine is not the private property of any elder, but the public property of the Brotherhood. Leopold is more like a senior bodyguard.

In addition to this workshop, the Navarro family also has a smaller workshop in their manor, but its output is only about a quarter of that of the Mill Mine, and it requires a mine. Some of the key raw materials are provided here, and they do not have independent production capacity.

Since the establishment of the entire workshop, it has been safe and sound for more than ten years without any major accidents, and compared with external intrusions that have never occurred, internal personnel's surveillance and self-theft are more frequent, so the management inevitably tends to be "Loose on the outside and tight on the inside".

On the wall of the main entrance, several night guards were gathering around the fire.Even though the winter in the south of the Kingdom is not as cold as in the north, the outdoor temperature at night is also approaching freezing point, and the direction of the main gate of the wall is facing the wind of the col, so if the guards really stand still, they will not come out. Within a quarter of an hour, the limbs would be numb from the cold.

A few guards were roasting by the fire, cursing and talking and laughing, the superior who arranged their vigil was an idiot, and sooner or later his wife would cuckold him, and the cold night would not be so difficult.

At this time, one of the guards vaguely heard that there seemed to be some strange screams mixed with the howling cold wind, so he turned his head and looked outside the wall, and suddenly found that there were a large number of "shooting stars" across the night sky.

The guard brother was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had seen a meteor shower?After staring for a while, they found that these orange meteors seemed to be coming towards them.

"Fuck! No way, guys, hurry up..."

Before the guard could remind his companions to pay attention, two hundred rockets fell on their heads, covering the entire Mier mining area in an instant, and the flames burst into the sky with the sound of rumbling explosions, turning the entire mining area into a raging fire. Burning sea of ​​fire.

Lude, who was standing on the top of the hill, watched this scene, and could vaguely hear some human screams, but he didn't feel any pity in his heart.It's not that Luther's heart has hardened, but that his kindness will never be given to drug dealers even a little bit!

The effect of the rocket attack was even better than expected. Those Brotherhood guards who were covered by the firepower were sent directly to the sky without knowing what happened. The master's forbidden spell was hit, and everyone cried like crazy.

At this time, the heavily armed heroic spirit team broke into the mining area, and the fire coverage just now almost wiped out the defenders on the ground. However, the poison workshop is inside the mine, and Lu De is not sure whether the [-] rockets can The mine cannot be blown down at the same time, so the heroic spirit team is responsible for rushing up to make up the knife.

As soon as the leader Alvette entered the mine, he was mentally prepared, and was taken aback by the tragedy in front of him. It was like a purgatory on earth. There were no more than 300 defenders, and those who survived the bombing were lucky. Basically lost their combat effectiveness, wandering around the ruins one by one like lost souls.

"It's amazing, why do I feel that there is no need for us sisters to appear on stage at all!"

"Don't be careless, the adults said that there are masters here, so be careful."

"Cut! It's just a master of mortal flesh, I don't believe he can still catch me with two cannonballs in the face?"

Although the words are very relaxed, the battle formation of the Heroic Spirit Squad did not relax in the slightest. As the captain, Alvette was even more tense, because she always felt that there were more than one eyes watching them secretly. , like a poisonous snake, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

End of this chapter

As the rockets washed the ground, almost all the buildings on the surface of the entire mining area were destroyed. Therefore, the team of heroic spirits who broke into the ruins soon discovered that although the enemy had indeed lost their ability to resist, the wreckage of the buildings also buried the mine. It takes a lot of effort to clean the entrance, otherwise the poison workshop cannot be completely destroyed.

So Alvette ordered half of the team to clean up the wreckage, and the other half was in charge of guarding, but before they could do anything, there were bursts of strange roars from the ground.Immediately afterwards, a giant humanoid broke through the ground from the ruins, raised its fist and smashed at the nearest Heroic Spirit.

Although the young lady who was attacked reacted quickly and immediately blocked the big shield she was holding in front of her body, but the monster's strength was surprisingly strong, only a loud bang was heard, and the young lady was sent flying out with the shield More than a dozen meters away, although he didn't suffer any injuries, he landed in a rather embarrassing posture.

With the help of the surrounding fire, everyone could see the true face of the monster.

"Fuck! What the hell is this?"

Standing on a hill with a good view, Lude stared at the battlefield below with his binoculars. The monster that suddenly appeared reminded him of a certain No.1 shooting game that he hadn't waited for since the year he died. A monster called "tank" looks almost like it.

obviously!This stitching monster with obvious stitching marks should be something made by Leopold.The height of the monster is about five meters, and its posture is similar to that of a gorilla. It has a pair of thick arms that are obviously magnified several times, the length of which is above the knees, and its hands are wearing metal gloves.

And after this monster appeared, more strange-looking things ran out of the mine hole exposed behind it, and at the same time, there were a large group of "zombies", hundreds of them rushed out all at once!

These monsters are all the "works" of Leopold. The reason why this insane old mage is obsessed with studying corpses is not only to hope for immortality, but also to create so-called "perfect creatures". The famous stitch monster.

The army of zombies that came out of the mine rushed to the ground and attacked the heroic spirit team involuntarily, and obviously did not include the defenders on the ground in the judgment of friend and foe, and many of them were lucky not to be bombed by rockets The dead guards were torn to pieces by these monsters as enemies.

Faced with a large number of zombies, the Heroic Spirit team quickly engaged them. Arvette, who was charging ahead, held two chainsaw swords and dashed from left to right among the group of corpses, killing plasma and flying broken limbs. , Ordinary mobs are cut one at a time like mowing grass, and elite monsters can only last a few seconds longer.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness, the heroic spirit ladies have an almost overwhelming advantage, but the number of zombies is also really large. In less than 5 minutes, they ran out of the mine in a large area. There are elite-level stitch monsters, as well as ordinary zombies of humans or other animals. After a rough estimate, the number may be over a thousand.

These monsters were all in the mine before, because they escaped the rockets that attacked first to wash the ground.If relying solely on the Heroic Spirit team, Lude estimated that they might not be able to kill them all until dawn. After all, this endless number is really amazing.

Seeing this, Lu De decisively took Shanisi and Hydera as the "reserve team" to the front line and went into battle together.

Lude, who rushed to the scene, firstly cast a holy light technique that specializes in defeating the undead. As a result, under the radiance, the group of corpses didn't give any face and didn't respond. A few of them should be special individuals with intelligence. , and even made an extremely piercing ridicule.

Seeing this, Lu De realized that these zombies should not have been created by black magic or some kind of sorcery.And in the information about Leopold, it is said that this guy is the No. 1 Thunder Element in the magic world, known as the "Lightning King".

So Lude ordered Shanis and Hydera to join the battle, and while supporting the heroic spirit team, give priority to killing the guys who laughed the loudest just now.

And he himself quickly went to the remains of a zombie that had been cut in half to check, and found that the necks of these bluish-purple zombies were all wearing brass collars, and the sutures on the body surface were buried with copper wires. Connected to that weird collar like a circuit.In addition, when you reach out to touch the remains of these zombies, you can clearly feel the numbness of electric shock.

Lude couldn't help guessing in his heart, are these zombies powered by "electricity"?

Just as he was thinking about dragging a few zombies back to study, the ground vibrated significantly stronger than before, as if something big was about to come out of the hole.

"Who!? Who the hell has the guts to run wild on the old man's land!!!?"

Accompanied by an angry roar, a giant centipede monster covered with human legs crawled out of the hole, and Leo Potter stood on the back of the centipede monster. There are jumping electric arcs, and the hair and beard are branched like fried hair.

Leopold was in a good mood today. When he checked the latest batch of "experimental materials", he accidentally found a top-quality one with a big Dior that was rare in a century.

Seeing such "good stuff", Leopold was ecstatic. He has been collecting all kinds of top human body parts over the years, preparing to build a perfect body, and then cooperate with the necromancer Dick. With the soul-moving technique, he exchanged his soul for this perfect body.

So the impatient Leopold immediately took out the scalpel he carried with him, and prepared to cut the "material" on the spot, but the rocket bomb that washed the ground just fell at this juncture, causing Leopold's hands to tremble. After a while, this "rare to meet once in a hundred years" directly leads to two "rare to meet in 50 years" immediately.

Looking at the lost treasure in front of him, a strong anger welled up in Leopold's heart. Without saying a word, he assembled his army and rushed to the ground to settle the score.

After decades of tireless human experiments, Leo Potter, an old lunatic who has no mercy for life, has created a large number of suture monsters that he calls "experimental bodies", and the number is thousands.This is also the capital for him to become the elder of the brotherhood.

Seeing that Leopold, who was the "primary target", had already appeared, several heroic ladies who used long-range attack weapons launched an attack immediately, and the armor-piercing warheads of the blunderbuss and the bursting arrows of the longbow greeted them together.

But these attacks were stopped by an invisible stance halfway, and they failed to hurt the opponent at all.Leopold looked around and sneered in an extremely contemptuous tone.

"You...you are looking for your own death!"

End of this chapter

He didn't realize how unlucky the cruel words he just said would be if he shouted them on the earth. Now Leopold just wanted to use his sword to kill these intruders who caused him to miss the good ones!

As the strongest thunder magician in the world, Leopold indeed has his arrogant capital. The full firepower output of the heroic spirit team was completely blocked by a completely transparent magic barrier. Immediately afterwards, the old man opened his arms, A large number of purple arcs spewed out from his palm, covering the whole field like a spider web in an instant.

But these electric arcs were not used to attack the heroic spirit team, but hit the experimental bodies guarding him.All the zombies covered by the purple lightning screamed collectively, and the corpses injected by the arc rapidly swelled up, and each one seemed to be strengthened.

"My children, tear these enemies apart!"

The combat power of the zombies strengthened by lightning has been greatly improved, coupled with an overwhelming numerical advantage of more than ten times, the heroic spirit team at the top was once forced to retreat again and again. Fortunately, Hydera transformed into a giant snake. The attack of the corpse group was successfully contained.

The fighting power of the monster lord is unquestionable. Although Hydera is slightly weaker than the adult dragon, it is at least the same rank.Even though the zombies were numerous and had just been strengthened, they still couldn't scratch her extremely hard snake scales.
