Gold is Justice

"But what really made me sure... that there are two... two monsters... was the... attack last night!"

Ke Ke also hugged her president tightly, and said tremblingly, "Last night... an attack?"

Airl nodded vigorously, and his footsteps moved towards the back of other guild members of his family little by little.It was only when he was in the protective circle of his own members that he felt a little safer: "Yes... yes! You know, corpse eaters...but... immune to slashing... slashing attacks Yes! Its weakness... is... piercing attack! But last night... this monster's claw... was scratched by... a polyester sword... So at that time... I was sure... to attack us It's... definitely not the Corpse Eater King! It's... this... strange... big monster who has been following us all this time!"

Finally, Arrow retreated behind Brad's defensive shield with Coco in his arms.With the big man in front of him and his shield, Airl finally felt the trembling of his hands and feet stop a little bit.At this moment, he finally let go of his hand.

It was also at the moment when Ai Luo let go, Ke Ke suddenly realized that he had been hugged by the president all the time just now, his face flushed, he let go of his hand quickly, turned around and summoned the skeleton soldiers again, and stood beside him .

Whiskey held up his sword, clutching his aching chest and said, "President Arrow, why does this jackal monster follow us? And why does it want to attack us?"

Arrow shook his head and said, "No, what it really wants to attack is not 'us', but everyone except the Mermaid Song members. In other words, whiskey, Dacron, these civilians here. He wants Kill everyone except Song of the Mermaid. Of course the most important thing is you, His Excellency Earl Ruiying Histan."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's eyes turned from the fighting monster to the old man.

The members of Song of the Mermaid are alright, after all, just from Airl's attitude towards the old man, everyone more or less guessed that this old man's identity is definitely not ordinary.The only thing that distinguishes them from the civilians is that they think they will die in this battle, but the other party has no intention of killing themselves at all?

"But... but the president, that monster obviously wanted to kill you just now, right?!"

Daxun couldn't hold back, and asked.

Airl nodded, and said with a smile: "That's right. Although it probably didn't intend to destroy our Mermaid Song, it shouldn't matter if it kills one or two members of our guild. So, when it finds itself After being cheated and having to fight this Corpse Eater King, it should hate me very much, right? I thought it would be fine to keep one or two Mermaid Song members anyway, so just kill me directly."

At this time, the old man Rui Ying who was standing in the crowd also came out, completely ignoring the respectful and fearful expressions of the civilians beside him, and said directly: "Song of the Mermaid, President Arrow. Then I I just want to know why this jackal wants to kill me? I don’t remember ever offending this kind of monster.”

Ai Luo laughed, he squeezed his arm, and after confirming that his arm was no longer trembling, he said slowly: "It's not that you offended this monster, but the owner of this monster probably wants you Death. When I was studying in Lao Tengshu, I also heard about Earl Rui Ying, the head of the Hestan family. It is no surprise that you are one of the doves. Since you will appear in Tianhe City, which has already experienced riots, Then it is conceivable that Earl Garp, the lord of Tianhe City, will let you go so easily."

Earl Rui Ying nodded, he stretched out his hand to stroke his beard slightly, and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with that. His Majesty sent me to check what this guy was doing, but when I arrived, I found a gold mine here. The breeding farm is completely out of control. If I can return to Hanhai City smoothly, then I am afraid that his title of earl will be lost."

Airl nodded in agreement, and continued: "So, Earl Garp must want to stop your report. But how can I ask you to shut up? It's very simple, just make you unable to speak again. "

Earl Ruiying looked at Airl with a smile on his face, his eyes were full of admiration.

"However, you are also an earl. It is not a trivial matter for an earl to openly kill another earl. If it is not handled well, it will also become a bad political incident. For this reason, the earl must have thought of it." We should use this commotion to solve you directly, and then report that you rushed into the 'temporarily out of control' area in a hurry, and were killed by the corpse eaters."

"And in order to make this reason valid, Earl Garp kept his city in chaos to a certain extent, and did not send any soldiers to destroy it. Because he still doesn't know your specific living conditions, so he is maintaining his own If it is safe to let the corpse eaters reproduce more, kill more people, and survive for a longer period of time, then the probability of your death will be higher."

"But there is still a problem here, that is, even though you, Earl Rui Ying, have died in this chaos, in the final analysis, the chaos was caused by Earl Garp's poor management, so his responsibility is still the same. Can't escape. So at this time, he needs a scapegoat to help him reduce his guilt."

"And the one chosen as the scapegoat is our Song of the Mermaid."

Airl smiled and pointed to his nose, which seemed to have fully recovered.

Earl Ruiying smiled: "Oh? Then can you tell me, what will he do after he chooses the scapegoat? And why did he choose your mermaid song?"

Ai Luo put his hands on his hips, and continued to look at the two monsters fighting over there: "Actually, these two questions are very simple, let me answer the second one first. Why did you choose Song of the Mermaid?"

"Because our Song of the Mermaid was the first guild to come into contact with corpse-eaters, and we have had many experiences of fighting head-on with corpse-eaters. At the same time, our guild is still relatively small and easy to control. The guild is located in a remote town and will not fight with corpse-eaters." What connections do too many large organizations make."

"Then there is the first question, if we are blamed, why should we be blamed?"

"It's very simple. It's the cauldron that killed you, Count Ruiying Histan."

At this moment, Earl Rui Ying and the others around were also slightly surprised.After a while, Earl Rui Ying said: "Kill me this pot? Hehe, everyone says that Song of Mermaid is a small guild, can you bear this pot?"

Chapter 270: Teeth in the Mouth, Scars in the Heart (Third)

Airl shook his head and said with a smile: "No matter how heavy the pot is, it's just a pot. I've even thought about the reason. Earl Garp can definitely say that when Song of the Mermaid entered this area for rescue operations, , suddenly clashed with you because of the discovery of the gold in the chest of the corpse eater. Song of the Mermaid killed you without knowing your identity. Then he ran away with the money." "In this way, our guild will Inexplicably, he was charged with such a crime of killing the count of the empire. At that time, as long as the count of Karp needs it, he can directly come to Pelican Town to arrest us and hand it over to the person who will deal with this matter. In this way , even if someone wants to say something, the Earl can reduce the damage to himself to the highest degree."

"Similarly, killing the civilians here does not want to leave them alive. The reason for keeping our Mermaid Song alive is because he originally wanted to wrong us, so even if we refute it, it will be regarded as a way to get rid of the crime. The framed accusations were not taken seriously."

After hearing this explanation, Earl Ruiying was obviously very satisfied with this answer.He nodded slightly, and said: "It seems that your analysis really makes sense. But I still want to know, how did you start to doubt these? How did you find out?"

Ai Luo smiled, and said shyly: "Actually... it's not really a discovery. After all, there are too many discordant points in the whole process. Most of the corpse eaters are still in their infancy in half a year, and they don't even have any structure at all. Not a threat. Judging from the fact that we were able to break through with so many civilians, it is really unimaginable that the Earl's soldiers, who know the weakness of the corpse eaters, will be wiped out by these corpse eaters."

"Afterwards, the earl only gave me a map that looked complicated but actually only had a single route. It meant that we could follow the road map. I judged from the beginning that the earl should not want us to die, so this The map should be relatively safe, with a high survival rate. Of course, if we did not find you, Earl Rui Ying, on this road with a high survival rate, then it is conceivable that you should be on a road that is not so safe. In this way, it is judged that you The possibility of death is much greater."

"If we really follow this road and go on without going through any forks, then we, Song of the Mermaid, should be able to complete this adventure without any risk. When we come out and go back, Earl Garp will immediately announce that we have killed Let us take the blame for you."

"Then, if you happen to take refuge somewhere along this route, we may meet. Once we meet, and it is confirmed that you are still alive, then the giant jackal that has been following us will Start the next step of the plan. That is to kill you."

Earl Ruiying's eyes turned to the two monsters who were fighting.In particular, it fell on the giant jackal who was currently being severely traumatized by the claws of the Corpse King's claws.

"Kill me...and then?"

Airl also saw the serious expression on the old man's face, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly: "After killing you, the problem becomes very simple. As I said just now, the Jackals may not have a direct conflict with us, but just drive us into a route where we can escape smoothly. After we escape from here, they will start to frame us. In fact, this whole process will really be involved in this matter It’s our song of the mermaid and you, as for the others…”

With a little apology, Arrow turned his head and looked at the whiskey, polyester and the civilians beside him.It was only now that Whiskey seemed to understand, pointed to his nose and said, "That is to say, if we don't meet you, then our lives will not be in any danger at all?"

Although this sentence sounded harsh, Airl still felt that it would be better to be honest with the two retired soldiers, so he nodded slightly.

Cream next to him thought for a while, and asked again: "President, I basically understand what you said. I also understand that the bastard fat earl wants us to be scapegoats. But I I still don’t quite understand, why did you think of coming to this place? Isn’t the map in your hand very unclear?”

Airl could easily respond to the previous matters, but he still avoided this question a bit.

The reason why he didn't choose the upward ladder from the previous fork road but chose the downward ramp was because if his group continued to walk forward along the road, they would definitely be followed by that giant jackal monster.Although I don't know how much that giant jackal knows about this underground passage, but as they continue to walk upwards, the sense of vigilance in people's hearts will naturally slowly disappear.It also makes it easier to be attacked.

And going down will cause the giant jackal to be troubled by "Where do they want to go?" At the same time, it will also make the giant jackal's actions more cautious, and will not attack suddenly like last night .

At the same time, I continued to choose some downward and relatively narrow paths along the way to limit the huge size of the giant jackal, so that it would not be able to catch up.

As for why he came to this energy area, it was naturally because he kept walking along more places of the pipe.Where there are many pipes, the passage will naturally be narrow.There are more tubes, which means there's a large space up front for the tubes to extend from.So it is a relatively large space after all.

It is also such a large enough space that can support the decisive battlefield where he puts the blood beads to lure the corpse eater king and fight the tracker behind him.However, all these inferences actually have many loopholes.After all, he can't guarantee that the place where a large number of pipes gather will really be a large space, let alone that the wide space that appears is really big enough.

When he realized that the monster was tracking his group of people, the urgency of the situation and the lack of information made it impossible for Airl to think carefully and investigate carefully.The only thing he can do is to choose the one with the highest survival rate among the many options.

Of course, this kind of behavior can be called gambling.

But if you want to create a strong image of a confident president in the hearts of your guild members, then you must not let your members realize that you are a person who only knows "gambling". The incompetent president of the batch.

"It's just calculated."

Facing Cream's question, Airl just slightly shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile——

"When I was studying at school, I also read some books on architecture. So I can deduce that there is a large space here. As for the specific knowledge... Do you want to learn it? I will teach you when I go back?"

Hearing what Ai Luo said, Cream was speechless and shook his head hurriedly: "No, no need. I already have a headache just listening to the general course knowledge taught by you, President. You should keep things like architecture for yourself. Let's taste it."

The current problems are all solved. Under the light of everyone's torches, the two monsters over there have obviously entered the serious injury stage.

The Corpse Eater King's tailbone slapped heavily on the ground, several claws of its claws had been broken off, and its whole body was covered in blood.

But the condition of the giant jackal was not much better. Its face, body, especially the two strong arms were covered with scratches and bite marks.Several huge wounds on the abdomen and back can even allow people to see the organs and bones exposed.

Perhaps it was because both of them were severely injured, the two monsters finally stopped now, and were in a stage of observing each other.But after a moment of stalemate, the giant jackal involuntarily took a step back.

This slight retreat naturally made the corpse eater king on the opposite side aware of the opponent's weakness, and it roared fiercely when it was already scarred, and the light-emitting organs that were still a little weak just now burst out with dazzling red light again!The next moment, the monster waved its powerful claws, quickly climbed to a huge water pipe next to it, climbed to the ceiling in twos and threes, and hid in the darkness!

The giant jackal raised his head in a panic and looked up, but now the light from the torch obviously couldn't fully illuminate the ceiling!After a moment of vigilance, the monster suddenly turned its head, and its face, already covered in blood, turned towards the direction of the crowd again.

"alert!"

Airl knew something was wrong, and immediately issued a warning.Without waiting for his words to fall, Brad immediately raised his large shield to block the front of the crowd. On both sides of him were the two fighters. Cream had already hidden behind a water pipe and clenched the weapon in his hand. It is to stand further behind and manipulate the undead soldiers and skeleton dogs, and face the monster with the most urgent posture!

The giant jackal was panting heavily, and its huge arms supported the ground, making it slowly walk towards the crowd.The blood on its body was already dripping, but even so, it still opened its mouth slightly, revealing those sharp and terrifying teeth...

"squeak----!!!"

moment!The corpse eater king descended from the sky!With the most destructive power, those huge claws slashed down on this giant jackal!

but……

This jackal, however, made some actions that only humans can make.

At the moment when the Corpse Eater King was about to pounce, it suddenly turned sideways, dodging the falling claws.At the same time, he raised those huge and strong arms, and the moment the Corpse Eater King landed, he smashed down with absolute power!

Boom————! ! !

Accompanied by a loud noise, the entire energy region seemed to tremble a little because of this blow.

The sound hit everyone's heads, and when everyone finally woke up from this chaos...

As if demonstrating to the humans here, the giant jackal's claws slowly lifted up, and the chest cavity of the corpse eater king had been completely pierced by these giant claws.The huge heart was also beating slowly in its claws, beating, beating... until a few seconds later...

Ka-!

Crushed by the gigantic claws of the giant jackal, the corpse-eating king was completely paralyzed like a skin bag that had lost its bones.

"Gollum..."

With a wave of his hand, the giant jackal threw the body of the Corpse Eater King aside.

It was panting heavily, and the thick blood had completely covered one of its eyes, making it difficult for it to even see clearly what was in front of it.

But even so, it still moved its crippled steps, slowly walking towards Airl.

Seeing this monster approaching, and seeing that it still wanted to complete its "work" even after suffering such a serious injury, Airl suddenly felt sorry for it.

With every step it takes, blood will drip.Its stomach has been completely turned out, and its internal organs are about to fall to the ground.

"Give up, and go back to recuperate quickly. That earl is not worthy of you doing this for him at all."

Ai Luo suddenly opened his mouth, this action made the people around a little stunned.

"Can you listen to what I say? Since you can carry out your mission so firmly, you should be wise, right? You don't really think that I am afraid of confronting you? No, the reason I want Letting you confront the corpse-eater king is purely because you are afraid of being flanked by two monsters at the same time, or encountering a wheel battle. With you alone, Song of the Mermaid will not be afraid at all."

"Now your injury is very serious. For your own good, I still advise you to leave here quickly. Really, please believe me, Earl Garp is really not worth your life to do this. Hey, Can you understand me? Hello!"

For Airl's constant yelling, the giant jackal seemed to have heard it, but it didn't seem to have heard it.

There seems to be a little human color in its eyes?But maybe it was because of too much blood loss and too much injury, which made its mind appear a little confused, and it couldn't listen to any words of human beings at all.

For this monster, the only thing that can support its actions now may be the last purpose...

Based on this purpose, its footsteps are still moving towards Earl Rui Ying, and the pair of huge arms are slowly raised, claws are opened, blood and meat fragments fall from between the claws, waiting to be torn apart Its ultimate goal!

Finally... this monster has come to a distance of five meters in front of Song of the Mermaid.

Seeing that it still had no intention of stopping, Airl could only shake his head helplessly: "It's really...it's a pity..."

"Roar----!!!"

The giant claws were lifted up, and they grabbed Brad hard at the front!In this regard, Brad did not dodge in any way.He just raised the shield in his hand slightly, and stepped on the ground like a mountain.next moment……

Chapter 270 The Blood of Loyalty

"Tree Armor Technique!"

With Buffy's soft cry, the emerald green leaves and vines wrapped around the flower fairy's body suddenly began to proliferate, forming a thick armor made of trees in a short moment, layer upon layer. Wrapped around Brad's body from head to toe!Even the iron shield was instantly entwined with countless vines, forming a tree shield that was almost taller than Brad's entire body.
