Ark's Journey to the Demon God

Chapter 27 Ines’ mission

When the expeditionary force entered the core city of the Eureka, they discovered that the Eureka was indeed of little value and was even the only

The most valuable thing is the core city itself.

After walking through the streets, Shen Muke signaled the flag bearer to stop in front of the watchtower and headquarters. He looked at the building in front of him, shook his head, and ordered:

"Separately disperse and stay where you are. Anyone who enters the house privately will be dealt with according to military regulations."

"understand!"

"Logos, Hedley, Hamil, come with me."

……

Under the guidance of the secretary, Shen Muke and others walked into a conference room and saw Kelsey and Bakalet sitting opposite each other.

When he saw Shen Muke, Speaker Bakalite stood up to greet him.

"Welcome everyone, this must be the Marquis of Agaritu? I'm disrespectful..."

Shen Muke smiled and shook hands with the other party, and then said: "Good day, Speaker Bakalet, just call me by my name, there is no need to be so... formal."

No matter where, it's actually more of a nervousness...

Bakalet looked at Shen Muke and the three captains behind him.

One is scarier than the other...

Speaker Bakalet felt like a rabbit meets a tiger and a wolf. He originally thought that with his half-life experience, he would be able to have the courage of a rabbit and an eagle even when facing the most terrifying people. However, when the expeditionary legion really appeared in front of him Only then did he realize how stupid he was.

In just one face-to-face meeting, Speaker Bakalet had already completely regressed from behavior to thought. He could hardly weigh the pros and cons in front of the other party, and all the prepared notes were useless.

This is certainly not because he lacks courage. In fact, he has been fighting with the colonists in Victoria for most of his life. What storms and waves has he not seen?The reason why he felt fear was because the entire expeditionary legion under the watchtower was shrouded in Shen Muke's divinity. The murderous aura washed out by the divinity would shock ordinary people from the bottom of their hearts!

Therefore, Bakalet was defeated by instinct.

The secretary walked in and offered a glass of fruit wine to both parties, but Logos and others politely declined.

"I'm so sorry, sir, we have our rules. During the war, you can't touch alcohol." Logos responded politely: "Just plain water will do."

Ah this...

The secretary was stunned for a while before he realized what he was doing and hurriedly replaced the cup.

Speaker Bakalet stood there for a long time, then squeezed out a sentence:

"Well... I saw your soldiers. They are indeed very strong as Ms. Kelsey said. But why are they resting along the street..."

After saying this, Bakalet himself felt a little embarrassed. He felt that this beginning was too low-level.

Shen Muke smiled and said: "It's nothing. This is also a rule. Our soldiers are not allowed to enter any residence without permission. This is respect for your people."

Shen Muke smiled and handed the cane in his hand to Hedley, saying: "Speaker Bakalet, please don't worry. We are helping your friends, not enemies. We are equal, so don't be so reserved. "

Shen Muke's words gave Bakalet courage. He calmed down and said, "Well, before the topic begins, on behalf of the people at Rem Billiton, I would like to thank you for your help."

Bakalet bowed to Shen Muke solemnly and said: "Rembiton people, you have been waiting for this day for too long..."

Shen Muke smiled and helped him up, saying: "I can understand, Mr. Bakalet, the Sakaz people are also waiting for this day."

……

Rem Billiton, in the Westfall.

Using shadow escape, Ines caught up with Charles Wellington's landcraft.

When Ines saw Charles, she did not choose to give him the known information. Instead, she chose to raise the price.

"The information this time is not trivial. It involves too many things, so the little money you gave me before was not enough." Ines said calmly.

"So, you mean..."

"I have to pay more!"

"You! You don't follow the rules!" Charles roared, "You don't keep your word!"

"These are the rules in the wilderness, Lord Governor Charles." Ines stared at him with dangerous eyes and said word by word: "If you don't give me double the money, you won't get the news. What you gave me before Those will not be returned to you."

"Bastard! Don't be too proud!" Charles opened the car door and got out of the car angrily: "Girl, don't forget, there are a lot of mercenaries in this wilderness. I don't need to look for you, I can replace you. Work for me alone!”

"Really? That's fine." Ines sneered and said, "Then go find another mercenary and see what his price will be. By the way, information is time-sensitive. , maybe when you find a suitable mercenary, it will be too late!"

Charles Wellington lost his temper. For the first time, he felt how evil monopoly was. For a moment, he even began to review himself!

"Okay, double what you said, I can promise you."

"That was the price just now." Ines shook her head and said, "Because of your unreasonable behavior just now, I want triple the price now."

"You!!" Charles stared. Finally, he compromised and took out the money bag and threw it to Ines.

"That's all. Okay, now tell me, what news can I finally get after spending so much money?"

"The Eureka picked up an army in the northwest wilderness. After the army entered the core city of the Eureka, it

Returned to the main city of Eureka. "

"Army?!" Charles's heart skipped a beat. What he feared most happened.

The issue of the Eureka Autonomous Prefecture has always been a thorn in Charles's heart, but it is just a thorn.

No matter how powerful the pen is, it cannot compare to the sword, gun, sword and halberd.

Under Charles, there are two elite armies, with a total of more than [-] powerful legions, which are the basis for his control of Rem Billiton. Therefore, although the locals of Rem Billiton rioted repeatedly, his rule was still stable.

But now, the Eureka has a legion?Where did this come from?Bakalet is not a god, how can he create an army on his own?

"What is the size of the legion? What is its combat effectiveness? Who is its commander?" Charles asked.

Ines thought for a while and finally said: "About ten thousand. I haven't fought with them, so I don't know the truth. But judging from the momentum, they should not be weak. They have three small commanders, one big commander, and small commanders." They are all very powerful, at least I am not my opponent. The commander cannot tell his strength or race, he can only tell that he is very young."

"Where are they from?"

"Except for the great commander, they are all Sakaz."

Sakaz?Is the Eureka allied with the Sakaz?

Charles instinctively felt weird. He knew that the entire Kazdaele was under pressure from Victoria and Ursus. At such a critical moment, did the Sakaz people still have the energy to support Rem Billiton?

Charles shook his head. Unlike his resourceful brother, he was not good at using his brain, but he still came to a conclusion based on basic logic:

The threat from the Eureka grew.

He thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Ines:

"Ahem, this mercenary lady, I wonder if you accept other business besides information?"

"you mean…"

"Like, nip trouble in the bud?"

Charles said calmly: "Bakalet, he is my enemy. I don't want him to live in the world, so..."

"Sorry, I can't do this." Ines replied calmly: "Victoria regards Bakalet as her enemy. In the past ten years, there have been no less than a hundred assassinations against him, and they have all failed without exception. I am very grateful to myself. His strength is still somewhat judged, I can’t kill him.”

In fact, there is another reason, that is, Ines knows who Bakalet is.

Helping a noble lord to kill a rebel hero, is this something a human being can do?

"Then, let's do the next best thing." Charles shook his head and said, "Go and kill the commander of the unknown legion, that young man. Can you do it?"

"He was protected by his people, and I couldn't do the same."

Ines continued to shake her head.

Charles was a little annoyed. He finally broke the pot and said: "Then I don't want their lives. I need specific information about which legion, where they come from, and what their purpose is. I want these, and you can always help me find out." bring it on?!"

"This is okay, but it requires additional money."

"……it is good."

Chapter 28 Night Raid

In the command room, Speaker Bakalet gradually found his own rhythm.

He, Kelsi and Shen Muke discussed a series of cooperation projects, and at the same time determined the delivery issue of aid to Kazdaele——

Whatever the expeditionary force captures, we can provide assistance to Kazdaele.

Bakaret said that he currently only has one city in the Eureka Autonomous Prefecture. This city is based on mining, so it has very little food reserves. Sustaining itself is not a problem, but supporting Kazdel is very difficult.

But there is no need to worry. Speaker Bakalet has given his own conditions. Not counting the Eureka, after the expeditionary force enters Rem Billiton, every time a city is taken from the hands of the Victorians, [-]% of the people in that city will be Materials can be given to them unconditionally, whether it is food or ore. Even if Shen Muke and the others want the production machinery in the factory, Bakalet said it can be negotiated.

The prerequisite is that the expeditionary force must guarantee that after they help the Rembilito people liberate the city, they cannot occupy the mountain as king or seize Rembilite's land. Bakalite does not want to enter the wolf's den just after emerging from the tiger's den.

Shen Muke fully agreed to these conditions. He guaranteed that after the expeditionary force entered other Rem Billiton cities, they would do nothing wrong with things that did not belong to them, just like today.

"There is no basis for what you say, Speaker Bakalet. In order to dispel your concerns, we also decided to increase our own strength." Shen Muke said with a smile:

"I will carry out an open attack strategy, not a cover-up strategy!"

"Every battle after we entered Rem Billiton, I would have people use cameras to live broadcast the battle scenes between our legions and the Victorians at any time, and spread the images to Kazdel, Leitania, Casimir, and Yanguo , and Syracuse, let the nations see how we challenge the plunderers and careerists and win!”

"We will use practical actions to prove that what we do is in accordance with the timing of heaven, the right location, and the will of the people. It is like the manifest destiny!!"

……

At midnight, after the secretary helped the dizzy Speaker Bakaret out of the command room, the first contact between the expeditionary force and the Eureka ended.

Speaker Bakalet didn't drink a drop of wine, but he felt dizzy.

he even felt

Everything today was like a dream. The various conditions put forward by Shen Muke confused him. He never thought that he had seen so many monsters and monsters in his life, but today he met a "saint"!

He was actually willing to help others escape from the rule of the predators!And the conditions are only a little food and minerals?

He really made me cry to death!

In the conference room, Kelxi and Shen Muke sat opposite each other.

"Are you crazy?"

"How do you talk like this?" Shen Muke said helplessly: "Do I look abnormal? Ms. Kelsey?"

"Because I don't know if you are awake."

Kelsey shook her head and said: "As you just said, only 20% of the supplies are needed... Do you know that the weather is getting colder now, and in one month, Kazdale will face the cold winter."

"so what?"

"So, you should get the supplies first, and then talk about anything else." Kelsey said calmly: "The crisis Kazdaele faces is more urgent than Rem Billiton."

"You are right, Ms. Kelsey, but this is just a [general] situation."

Shen Muke said with a smile: "What if I can gather enough supplies for Kazdel activities within a month?"

"Then you need to capture at least five mobile cities in about a month." Kelsey stared at him and said, "Do you think it's possible?"

"Why is it impossible?" Shen Muke spread his hands and said, "If I can't do this, what confidence do I have that I can win the entire Rem Billiton?"

"If you really think taking the whole of Rem Billiton away from the Victorians is [something], then I have nothing to say."

Kelsey shook her head and said, "So, the other thing, the live broadcast you mentioned, what's going on?"

"This is the literal meaning~" Shen Muke took out a rather exquisite camera from the Consciousness Empire and said, "I will give it to Hamil and let her record our battle process."

"...I admit that this is a good gimmick, and it should be very popular in Casimir, but are you sure you want [live broadcast]?"

Kelsey stared into Shen Muke's eyes and said, "What do you think war is?"

"The cruel process of killing lives, Ms. Kelsey, I know the horror of war, but that's why I want to show it to people!"

Shen Muke said calmly: "Only if you know cruelty, you will not embrace it. Only if you feel fear, careerists will not be unscrupulous."

"Ms. Kelsey, do you know about PTSD?"

"You are a doctor, you must know! It is a mental illness. People who kill others will fall into suffering because of self-blame and repentance. The reason is that he does not have a legitimate reason worth fighting for!"

"A long time ago, I met many soldiers with PTSD who confessed their sins to the camera and said how much they regretted it.

"However, there is a type of veteran who laughs loudly and proudly when talking about how they slaughtered their enemies. Don't get me wrong, they are not born executioners, but heroes who save their compatriots!"

Shen Muke clenched his fists and said, "When you find a great reason to fight for it, you won't be afraid of blood."

"This is my purpose, Ms. Kelsey, I bring this war to people's eyes to let them know that the simplest justice in the world still exists. It will not be confused by the dripping blood, but will make it Shine even more!"

"Ms. Kelsey, people on this land have forgotten the virtues of the past, and now, I want them to recall them."
