Chapter 180 Evil and Justice

Changsan Town is a moderately large city in the Commercial Alliance. It is far from being as big as Tipwaite City, but it is not too small either, with approximately [-] residents.

Today, an army of the Kingdom of Amn has defeated a defensive army of the Commercial Alliance and arrived here quickly.

This is an army composed of players. They have different uniforms and no army discipline, but the strength of each soldier is not weak. After the original small number of troops have been transferred, Chang'an Town has no resistance at all.

So the jazz master in Chang'an Town had no choice but to surrender, and the leader of this army, after collecting a sum of war compensation, promised not to plunder, even though soldiers with steel swords occasionally appeared to rush in Situations of robbery in residential houses.

The Church of the Gods in Chang'an Town is average. Although it is not weak, it has a simple temple, but at this time the temple has ushered in the siege of the player army:

"Evacuate here immediately!"

A priest, three priests, and a small group of knights are waiting.

priest said:

"The wars of mortals should not affect the places where gods are worshiped!"

And the leading player captain said:

"After the Kingdom of Amn regains its proper land, it will re-divide the diocese, and any church that is willing to leave at this time can obtain the only missionary right in areas with more populations!
"No matter what church you belong to, if you are unwilling to accept the kindness of the Kingdom of Amn and reach this agreement, then we will attack immediately! After you are eliminated, this parish will be dedicated to the god of tyranny!"

Priests, priests, and knights were all shocked that the army of the Kingdom of Amn was so bold!

How dare you threaten a church of gods!
But seeing the fearless eyes of the soldiers around him, the priest knew very well that if he refused, they would definitely attack.

This army is by no means the ones in the impression they once had, they don't have much respect for the gods.

Then the priest said:

"This place belongs to our Lord, the God of Suffering. We will come back, and the Kingdom of Amn will not be able to resist by then."

The player captain didn't care about the priest's remarks, but let the surrounded players disperse, and said:

"You have an hour!"

. . .

An hour later, on a hillside a few kilometers away from Chang'an Town, the priest of the Church of the Suffering God said to several knights:
"This army is not normal. You are scattered and hidden on the outskirts of Chang'an Town, observe whether these armies have other follow-up actions, and enter it to investigate after their main force leaves, to see if there is any large-scale looting, or massacre of nobles, etc. Things happened, after all, there are some believers of our Lord here."

"Everything is for my lord! All living beings will suffer!" The knights took orders.

Then, the priest left on horseback with the three priests, while the rest of the knights began to disperse. There are tens of thousands of people living in Chang'an Town and its surrounding areas. Generally speaking, the surrounding area is still very large, so the dozen or so knights are divided into The five groups are hiding in the woods and near the farmlands on the outskirts of Chang'an Town.

In the evening, the two knights near the main road saw the army of players leaving here. They were advancing almost without formation, just moving loosely but keeping fast.

After these player troops left, a knight wondered:

"It's getting dark, why don't they rest in Chang'an Town? Are they rushing to attack the next place?"

Another knight said:
"Although this army looks very inferior, its combat effectiveness is not bad. Every warrior with a sword is not much weaker than us, and it seems that many are stronger than us."

The knight who spoke first said:

"Leonard, should we go back now? I'm a little worried about the temple. It shouldn't be destroyed by these guys, right? I can feel that they have no fear of the gods!"

The knight named Leonard said:

"I'll go back tomorrow during the day. Although our location is close to a main road, it's still far away from Chang'an Town, so it's not suitable for rushing there tonight."

Ever since, the two knights who were hiding in the woods by the roadside began to rest directly. With their strength, even wearing armor, it was not too difficult to climb up a big tree.

From this tree, you can see Chang'an Town from a distance, and you can also see a nearby main road. After eating dry food and drinking water, the two knights began to take turns to rest.

As the night deepened, the night watchman woke up the resting Leonard:

"Look, another small group of troops has left, why are they leaving at this time?"

Cavalier Leonard also looked at the hundreds of soldiers passing by with the same puzzlement, and then he looked carefully at Changsaddle Town, but he found almost nothing unusual, there was no sound of fighting, and there was no second army. Attack and drive the group away.

But soon, the two knights discovered something in the night:
"Leonard! There is an army approaching Long Saddle Town in the distance!"

Leonard nodded solemnly:
"They seem to be surrounding Chang'an Town, what exactly are they trying to do!"

After counting for 10 minutes, the two knights vaguely saw an army encircling Chang'an Town.

Their faces became serious:
"This is wrong! This army didn't have a torch. They obviously came after the troops in front had left. Facing a town that has no resistance, there is no need to attack at night!"

However, the shout of killing did not sound for a long time, which made the two knights puzzled again. They didn't understand what this army wanted to do!
. . . . . .

In Chang'an Town, in a tavern named Deep Drunk, the young tavern owner is wiping the counter himself, and many people in the tavern are drinking. Most of them are frowning, discussing today's army:
"Damn it, how could the army of the Kingdom of Amn be so strong and defeated the army of our business alliance so quickly!"

"There has been no war in the business alliance for too long! I really think that developing business and working hard to make money can get everything! Those old men who are in charge may have forgotten that there is another crime called robbery!"

"To be honest, today's army is nothing like the ones I've seen before. It's very poorly disciplined. I doubt how they can defeat the army of the business alliance! You know, in our army of the business alliance, there are Led by the legendary warrior Yakos!"

"I heard that Yakos-sama has just stepped into the realm of legend, and he can lead this army only because of him..."

"Nonsense, Lord Yakos is very powerful. One of my customers has seen his strength. He split a huge ogre in half with one sword!"

At this time, a man drank the beer in the wooden cup in his hand, stood up and said to the young tavern owner:

"Hey! Lonely Joey! My treat tonight, a glass of ale for all the customers!"

The young tavern owner didn't speak, just nodded, brought out a whole barrel of ale, and then slowly began to add glasses to the people in the tavern.

While most of the people in the tavern were happily drinking the ale that the man paid for, there were still a few customers who were waiting to be poured, and suddenly saw the young tavern owner in front of him collapse without warning!
"Joy! What's wrong with you?"

One drinker said to the others as he helped himself to a full glass of ale:
"Hey! The tavern owner suddenly fainted! Come and see!"

The people in the tavern became restless, and the previous treater walked to the counter with staring eyes and said:
"What's the matter? As far as I know, the lonely Joey is a very powerful man. How could he suddenly fall down?"

At this time, the tavern owner, the lonely Joey, was also looking at the death interface in doubt!
That's right, the lonely Joey is a human player, and his strength is not bad. He has reached level 15, and with the help of some of his own knowledge, he made a lot of money in Long Saddle Town, and then bought This tavern is ready to start a leisurely daily life.

As a player, he actually likes this world very much, and he is very happy to live in this "different world" for real, and he also likes to listen to the false or true words that people here say in the tavern while drinking.

Although the human players of the Kingdom of Amn occupied this place today, they hid it very well and did not reveal their player identities, and the power of the players only collected war compensation from several major wealthy families, and did not They scattered and did not come to his tavern.

But just now, he was pouring wine for the drinkers, but he died suddenly!

Ever since, the lonely Joey clicked on the resurrection of the game interface, and at this time something that shocked him even more happened:
[Your resurrection point Long Saddle Town is unavailable!Please quit the game and try again! ]
After a moment of numbness, the lonely Joey chose to quit the game and returned to the real world. He planned to log in again tomorrow morning, and today he was able to finish the things that had been delayed for a long time.

And in Long Saddle Town, in the deep drunk tavern, many customers were still in shock, because an adventurer stepped forward to check the body of the tavern owner, the lonely Joey:

"His heartbeat is still beating normally! His pupils are also normal! But there is no response!"

Another half-drunk customer said:

"I know, I've seen people whose souls have been extracted are like this, like plants, they can no longer move!"

The adventurer looked puzzled:
"How could it be that, right in front of our eyes, he suddenly dissipated his soul!?"

. . .

But at this time, after waiting for an hour, the two knights were completely shocked by what happened suddenly!

A huge weird black-gray hemispherical shield covering the entire Chang'an Town suddenly appeared just now. In the deep night, the black-gray shield looks extremely evil!
Leonard Cavaliers complexion changed drastically:
"With such an evil aura, everyone inside may be killed! And looking at this area, the other eight knights may all be shrouded in it! You immediately take off your armor and leave lightly with the knight's sword. You must let everyone know, There is a huge evil behind this war!"

The other knight nodded, and while taking off his armor with Leonard's help, he asked:
"how about you?"

Leonard frowned and said:

"I want to stay here, even if nothing can be changed now, tomorrow, after the sun rises, these evils are likely to recede, and I'm going to find possible survivors!"

Soon, the knight who took off the armor quickly left with the knight sword, while Leonard hid the armor, and then continued to monitor the black-gray hemispherical shield.

In the early morning, when the sky was about to light up, Leonard discovered that the black-gray hemispherical shield had disappeared, and the army that had arranged the black-gray shield had also disappeared.

This made Leonard even more worried. He headed towards the place where the other two knights were observing, but when he arrived, he only saw some traces of fighting!

Leonard's hand touched a long scratch on a big tree, and whispered:

"Evil Breaking Slash..."

Leonard's hands trembled slightly:

"What kind of evil creature is inside, such a conspiracy, it seems to be devils, their souls..."

. . . . . .

The next day, when the sun rose, Leonard, who had recovered a little bit, approached Chang'an Town, and soon he entered the outer area of ​​Chang'an Town. He didn't see anyone, and there was almost no one here To what resistance battle traces.

Half an hour later, cautiously, he came to the central area of ​​Chang'an Town. This is a spacious street surrounded by some core places of Chang'an Town, such as Lord Jazz's mansion, the small temple of their church, the town hall, etc. wait.

But at this moment, he saw extremely obvious traces of evil. The street seemed to have been burned by flames, and there was still a burnt smell in the air.

Leonard understood that a huge evil sacrifice was probably held here, and all the residents of Chang'an Town were killed!

Leonard was a little sad:
"My lord! I will suffer to free others!"

Leonard then began to search elsewhere, trying to find any survivors, while gathering evidence of evil's presence.

But what surprised him happened. On an empty street, he saw a young man in simple gray clothes standing barefoot next to a tavern, motionless.

Leonard held the knight's sword vigilantly, and walked over:

"Who are you? A survivor?"

The young man in the simple gray clothes turned his head, his eyes were lifeless, as if they contained endless death, those eyes made Leonard's body under the armor tremble!
The man in gray said:
"I am the owner of this tavern, Lonely Joey.

"Who are you, evil devil? You murdered the entire town of Long Saddle?"

Leonard avoided the eyes full of dead silence, lowered his head slightly, and the knight's sword leaned on the stone slab in the street:
"Joy, I'm glad you're still alive. I'm Leonard, a knight of the Church of the God of Suffering. Unfortunately, we couldn't do anything yesterday. We didn't save Long Saddle Town from suffering."

Then, Leonard took a breath, raised his head, looked at the lonely Joey's dead eyes and said:
"I will suffer, so that the evil devils who created this disaster will suffer!"

And the tavern owner in a simple gray coat, the lonely Joey's eyes are still dead:

"Before I didn't know what evil is, but today I know that I can only see evil when the good is killed and blood is shed everywhere.

"I will become the mortal enemy of the devil!"

　This chapter is a little bit cruel, but this can truly reflect the reason why evil is evil.

　　And the protagonist who did not appear, our Kerr, will use absolute power to slowly crush these evils step by step.
