Gold is Justice

Going round and round along the underground passage, I don't know when, some faint rumbling sounds began to come from the front.
Airl nodded lightly. After all, not long ago, it should be where the waterfall is.
"Watch out, we don't know what's in the depths."
Airl gave a soft warning, and everyone nodded.
The torch continued to shine in his hand, and the emitted light continued to illuminate this small area that wasn't too wide.
Relying on the incomplete map in his hand, Song of the Mermaid slowly approached the front, bit by bit...
"squeak--"
Sudden!The unique voice of the corpse eater came to the ears of Airl and others again!
Song of the Mermaid hurriedly stopped and listened carefully to the source of this sound!
"Squeak-!"
The voice was not far away, but it didn't sound like it was approaching here.
Airl turned his head and glanced at the dark passage beside him.On the map, the end of this passage was marked as a "dead end", but the corpse eater's voice was clearly coming from there.
"squeak--!"
The voice of the corpse eater came again, and it sounded different from the corpse eater who yelled just now.In other words, there should be more than one corpse eater there.
But it was the same as before, these voices didn't mean to be close to Airl and the others, it seemed that some corpse eaters gathered there were busy with something.
"President, do you see us...?"
Cream asked softly, seeking Airl's opinion.
Airl looked down at the map in his hand again, thought for a while and said: "Although our goal is to destroy the Corpse Eater King, there may be some survivors here. If so, then we can If you save some people, try to save some people.”
Hearing Airl's instruction, Brad immediately turned around and walked to the passage, ready for battle.
But Ke Ke next to him seemed a little nervous, and said: "Brother President... Is it too dangerous for us to enter an unknown area so casually? If we deviate from the map... maybe we won't be able to come back later It's..."
Of course Airl knew this risk, but if he was to follow the map given by the earl, it meant that all his actions were in accordance with the earl's intentions.Then of course, I will definitely end up in a failure.
That being the case, it is still a little disobedient to the earl's intentions, and there may be new discoveries if you follow other paths.
"Don't worry, Coco, if we notice any danger, we will turn back immediately. Cream, pay attention to leaving marks along the way. Brad, cheer up 12 points. If it really doesn't work, let you and Bar Activate Fei's new magic."
Everyone listened to the order and began to walk slowly towards the direction of the corpse eater's voice.
Within 5 minutes of walking, the sound of the waterfall gradually became lighter and finally disappeared.But instead, the roar of the corpse eater became clearer.
In addition to the roars of the corpse eaters, some human shouts and curses can also be vaguely heard!
Obviously, someone in front was attacked!
"Damn! You damn monsters! You! Pull him back quickly! Save people! Save people!"
Suddenly, a voice suddenly came from the front!After hearing this call, everyone in Song of the Mermaid was slightly taken aback, but in the next second, they immediately quickened their pace and ran towards the direction of the sound.
Turning a corner, a piece of light immediately appeared in front of my eyes!Under the light of about five or six torches, about seven or eight people who looked like civilians gathered in a corner, shivering and looking terrified.And in front of this group of people, there are two warriors wielding long swords struggling to deal with the four corpse eaters!Perhaps it was because they wanted to avoid any scrapes or scratches as much as possible. Their movements appeared to be very cautious, defending far more than attacking, and they were gradually pushed into the corner by the four corpse eaters.
"Do it! Save people!"
Following Airl's order, Song of the Mermaid's combat power immediately rushed towards the four corpse eaters!
Because of the sudden attack and the speed of the crowd, the two corpse eaters behind the teacher were suppressed without even turning around, and their hearts were pierced by sharp blades.The remaining two corpse eaters noticed the change behind them, turned their heads in a panic, and turned their backs to the two soldiers.Seeing such a good opportunity, the two warriors understood, and immediately raised their long swords and stabbed steadily into the hearts of the two corpse eaters.
"Squeak--!"
Accompanied by the screams of these monsters and falling down, Airl finally heaved a sigh of relief, faced the two warriors with weapons with a smile, and said, "It doesn't look like your skills have regressed much? Whiskey, polyester."
The two warriors pulled out their long swords, and they all let out a sigh of relief when they saw Ai Luo again.It's just that they didn't have extra time to greet Ai Luo, but rushed to the group of people and shouted loudly: "How is it? How's the situation?"
Seeing this scene, Ai Luo also hurriedly followed.
I saw a woman in her 30s surrounded by the crowd. Her chest was stained with blood, as if she had been seriously injured.
Seeing this scene, Airl lowered his head and glanced at the potion in his item bag. After hesitating for a moment, he finally took out a bottle of healing aerosol and handed it to the whiskey in front of him: "Use this, see if it works." Heal her wound?"
Whiskey glanced at Airl, nodded slightly and took the medicine bottle.A man who looked to be in his 30s at the side shouted in a panic after seeing the medicine bottle: "Thank you! Thank you for saving my wife! Please save her! Thank you!"
The bottle shattered, and the blood-red mist in it immediately penetrated into the woman's body.Soon, her bleeding wound stopped bleeding, and the expression on her face seemed to have settled down.
Seeing this scene, Whiskey breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "President Arrow, I really appreciate your potion. If I don't have it, I really don't know what to do."
But Polyester was not so relaxed. He patted his partner vigorously: "It's not over yet! Have you forgotten what will happen to those injured people in the end? Be careful everyone! Don't let your guard down!"
Hearing what Dalun said, Whiskey showed a reluctant expression on his face.However, Airl clearly knew the problem, so he waved his hand quickly. Brad behind him quickly came over and pulled the whiskey away. Women's injuries.
Although the injured woman's face was calm, she still didn't look very relaxed.Beads of sweat began to roll down her forehead, and her lips also turned pale from the blood color just now.Seeing this, her husband threw himself on his wife and shouted loudly: "No! No! It must not be like this! Captain Whiskey! Deputy Captain Polyester! You promised us that we would protect us, right? So my wife will be fine, right? Right?!"
The face of the injured woman began to distort gradually, suddenly!Her eyes are open!The focal length in the pupils began to slowly get out of control, and the whites of the eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, making her look very scary!What's more, some voices that don't seem to be human are "gurgling" from her rumble!
"Do not--!!!"
Seeing that his wife had gradually started to mutate, the husband finally couldn't help crying loudly.
Whiskey couldn't bear it, turned his head to look at Airl, shook his head, and said, "Dacron, please...you."
Dalun also sighed, raised the long sword in his hand and walked towards the woman, and said at the same time: "You know, we have no choice but to. Anyone who has suffered a little bit of injury will end up like this...so , let me help her rest in peace..."
"No! You don't come here! I warn you not to come here!"
The husband was suddenly furious!He put his arms around his wife, stretched out his fist as if threatening to wave it at Dacron, and said loudly——
"My wife is still saved! She must be saved! This is...is this some kind of dark magic? It must be some kind of dark magic! Then as long as there are priests of the Holy See of Light! As long as there is light of the level of the high priest The magic is here! My wife will definitely be saved, right?! You said that the Holy See of Light will definitely not ignore this city! As long as we wait until the Holy See comes... as long as we wait until then, won’t it be all right?!”
Arrow understands this sentiment.
At the same time, he also understands the emotions of the whiskey and polyester.Especially when Dacron showed that he wanted to forcibly separate the husband and kill the wife directly, Arrow agreed with this emotion very much.
However, approval does not mean actual implementation.Seeing that the sword in Dacron's hand had been raised, Ai Luo said quickly: "Wait a minute! If light magic can be useful, then there is really no need to do things so desperately now."
Chapter 260 Nine Reconciliation
For others, polyester may not care so much.But regarding Airl's words, the retired soldier and the current carpenter turned his head and looked at the guild leader with doubts on his face.
"President Airl? You mean...?"
Ai Luo smiled, nodded lightly, and said: "My meaning should be obvious, right? Let's not do anything for now, and wait until the people from the Holy See come, and then we can find a way to save this lady. Yet?"
Ke Ke at the side became a little nervous, and quickly pulled Laero's sleeve lightly, and said softly: "Brother President! Do you want that...bad woman to treat you? That woman is so cruel, how could she do that? Save people?"
As for Coco's question, Arrow is not convenient to answer for the time being, but just said with a smile: "What do you think of my proposal? Whiskey, Dacron, I want to ask, will those corpse eaters actively attack these infected people?"
Whiskey thought for a while and said, "Well... I haven't seen this kind of scene. It seems that once the infection becomes a zombie, these corpse eaters will not attack them again... You have seen corpse eaters The attacking zombie scene?"
Those people looked at each other and shook their heads.Seeing this, Ai Luo also got the bottom line in his heart, and continued to smile and said: "Since corpse eaters don't attack zombies, then we can definitely tie this lady somewhere here first. Hmm... I think that A water pipe would be good? We can tie her here to prevent her from running around and prevent her from harming others."
"Then, after the rescue from the Holy See of Light comes, we will bring the priest here to save your wife. Isn't that all right?"
Hearing such an answer, Dacron seemed a little hesitant.He thought for a while, and said with some hesitation: "Is that so? But..."
"Okay, stop it. Or do you think there is a better way to solve the current problem?"
Di Lun looked at Airl, and after a moment of silence, he finally lowered his long sword slowly.
Seeing this, the anxiety on the husband's face was immediately replaced by joy, and he kowtowed to Dacron and Ai Luo to express his gratitude.
Without further ado, Arrow let the Dacron and the whiskey come forward and tied the woman firmly to the water pipe.That is, at the moment when she was tied up, the woman's pupils lost the last bit of focus, and she lost her mind like a zombie, opening her mouth to everyone.Looking at that posture, it is completely a feeling of wanting to feast on the human flesh here as soon as possible.
Seeing his wife's current appearance, the husband also seemed a little hesitant now.But his mood has stabilized a little bit, and after a word or two with his wife who has turned into a zombie, he returned to the crowd and stayed quietly.
At this point, Coco pulled Airl again.But the guild leader still just smiled and nodded at her, but didn't answer the girl's question.
And the answer to this question is...
Saving people is naturally impossible.
If people from the Holy See of Light wanted to come, they should have come a long time ago, and it shouldn't have been delayed until after this small border guild arrived here, there was no priest working in the entire city.As for the woman with powerful light magic power to save people, in terms of her character, the possibility is really low.
So, this poor woman should have completely turned into a zombie, and there is no way to recover, right?
But even so, it shouldn't be killed right now, here.
Although Ai Luo didn't know what the relationship between whiskey, Dacron and these civilians was, when these civilians had no combat effectiveness, the two retired soldiers armed with weapons grandiosely regarded one of them as "theoretically completely People who cannot be rescued and may be harmful are killed, which will also cause a very serious problem.
That is, the issue of "trust" between these civilians and these two retired soldiers.
In fact, Ai Luo felt that he should wake up before. The two soldiers, Whiskey and Dacron, have no problems in their combat ability and judgment of the correctness of things, but they have a shortcoming, that is, they don't know how to fight at the right time. Do some emotional thinking beyond rationality.
They didn't think about it at all, what would these civilians think of them after they killed people so grandiosely?In this underground passage where there are still unknown how many corpse eaters, if there is a disagreement between the teams, it will be more deadly than being surrounded by corpse eaters!
So at this time, it is better to adopt a more gentle treatment method to make these civilians feel that these two people are not completely emotionless killing machines.
From another perspective, it will take time for the husband to realize that his wife is indeed hopeless.Such a relatively long period of time can also relieve him from the impulsive emotions just now, and continue to live the rest of his life.
Naturally, this kind of practice of promoting hope to these civilians despite knowing that this woman is hopeless, can Keke know.
When Brad, Cream and the others were handling the four corpse-eaters and checking their hearts, Airl glanced at the quiet crowd over there, and said to Whiskey and Dacron: " Why did the two of you appear here? Where is the vodka? He must have left a note to find you."
Whiskey raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said, "Vodka? After that guy arrived at my house, he hid in the attic and was too scared to come out. When I came out, he didn't know where he went. Maybe he's out of town."
At this time, Polyester responded: "The owner of the Firebird Bar? He came to me later and said that he had a batch of goods hidden in this underground passage, and hoped that I could help him to get them. But At that time, I didn't have time to talk to him at all, so I reluctantly responded. Thinking about it now... I hope he won't come here alone."
Thinking of the vodka boss who had the same face as the little spirits boss, but no matter how he looked at it, Arrow raised his eyebrows slightly, and to be honest, he became a little worried.
Coco then said: "Then, Uncle Whiskey, Uncle Polyester, and everyone, what are you doing here?"
Whiskey smiled at the little necromancer, and said, "We are here to exterminate the corpse eaters here."
Hearing this news, Airl couldn't help but frowned slightly: "Exterminate the corpse eaters? You? What about those people behind?"
Dacron also came over now, waved his hand and said, "President Arrow, please listen to what we have to say. Um... this matter has to start from the beginning."
"About half a month ago, those zombies suddenly began to emerge from various sewers, causing a certain degree of panic in the entire Tianhe City. Then the Earl asked everyone to hide in their rooms and not to go out. At the same time, he sent The army is carrying out operations to exterminate these monsters."
"But later, the earl's extermination operation seemed to have failed. The earl promised everyone that he would ask for help from the capital and the church. But we really can't wait that long. After all, there are still some people living in the underground passages of Tianhe City , these people may not have much money and cannot live in bright sunshine, but they are still residents of Tianhe City after all."
"At the same time, the earl also promised that since his soldiers are currently unable to open the underground passage, if anyone is willing to do his part to eliminate the corpse eaters, he will be willing to reward you heavily! To be honest, that is a lot of money What~~~"
"So, the two of us together think that even if our two soldiers have retired at this time, we should also take the responsibility of surrounding the people. So just two days ago, we started from a sewer that was still open and safe. It came in. No, this saved so many people.”
Airl put his hands on his hips, crying and laughing, and said, "In other words, you two came here to save people for money? It really sounds like something that adventurers who take money will do."
Dalun smiled a little embarrassedly, and said: "After all, the earl really gave too much. Let's not talk about my situation, let's just talk about this guy. Isn't he a blacksmith? He wants to build a The blacksmith shop also needs enough funds. So as long as the task this time is completed, he can use the money to build a blacksmith shop and live a good life with his wife and children."
