Chapter 491 Demon Rat Research Centre (1/2)

The Uote Town Guards accompanied their Guard Captain, Sebastia and Kraft to the capital arriving at the break of dawn The first thing Jin's co tall walls made not out of brick and uys have definitely never been to the capital before, aye? The look on first tiuards at the front gates dee that carried theuards immediately consented their entry without much hassle

”You must holdthe contents of the carriage” Kraft tried tothe captain

”Our h But of course, if not for ent with their checks” The Deroup of deht for soldiers to mobilise this early?” Sebastia asked, and even the Demon Rat Captain wanted to pry into thehappened Let e and called over one of the Demon Rats with one rank beneath his own It was unlikely for the nor besides the need to assemble ”What? An attack at Uote town?!”

”Yes, sir! Apparently, it was a direct report froeant reported that not only Uote Toas affected Even Youi and the trading town of Wecha were hit around the same timeframe ”We believe the Dark Te out now to recapture those towns”

”Do you need to follow theh he already kneould be pointless, as he had the reports fro tea you to ent” Uote Guard Captain grue driver to hasten the speed even though the road were packed with soldiers bringing groups of slaves into battle too

”For them to use slaves and prisoners as cannon fodder shows ence level” Kraft thought and pitied the Syste unable to catch any of the gift too

Meanwhile, Sebastia noticed how the inhabitants were all living in cramped places in order tothe atmosphere There were definitely more than just one or two factories responsible for all the s the entire city's sky with dark clouds

If anything, they were exploiting a lot of the people to work hard for them to produce those Steale bit of their well being To them, one slave or prisoner of war could easily be replaced with the next After all, the entire capital's population was their plaything

Kraft had already used the opportunity when the Guard Captain left the carriage to send out his foxes for reconnaissance They proceeded toto him as well as the Syste not just Steam Tech, but weapons, armoury, and even vehicle parts such as the steam tanks and helicopters All of them were powered with the very same Steaet ht into these items and if possible the blueprints However, the foxes deemed it as a secondary objective compared to what Kraft had asked them to do

”Sorry, Captain The ht now and asked us to pass you this instead” One of the guards at the doorstep of the castle denied their entry and gave the Uote Guard Captain a task instead He quickly scrambled to tear the envelope open and read the contents of the letter

”Urgh! After all, I did for them!” The captain crashed the papers and told the?” Sebastia asked with a stern tone

”To the main Research Centre The Masters have allowed you and only you Battle Lady to pick a weapon and armour of your choice They want you and your companion to annihilate the demons in the north The lion and the snake!”

”Two deive me one weapon? What about

”No! No can do! Masters say only you since you gave results! Your co to earn the trust of our lad that he is able to co anything!” The Uote Guard Captain vehee driver to move to the research centre post haste

”Oh, come now It doesn't have to be the latest athering dust? You kno strong deht have soainst two of the an extra weapon will no doubt prove a boon, and it is just one weapon, I aave the Guard Captain some headache

”Grrrrr We will see about it e enter the place”

It did not take long, but the , the temperature of the place shot up by at least three fold The labourers and workers that were busy on the production line were all so hot that none wore any upper clothing It's either they stifled the any safety gear (As if the deive thelance, they noticed that the rats were using the slaves for creating the parts for their coave the back to work As much as they hated the bad treath for the workers to send some money to their fa as she could feel how oppressive the atmosphere was Still, she continued on with Kraft who seeht theuards equipped with Steam Tech It appeared to be an even more advanced version of the power suit which Sebastia saw the ex-couards earing such a power suits to defend the place, it had to be of relative importance to the rats theuards turned around in their power suit in order to lift the door open for the guest to enter

The bar handles were indeed at the botto it up However, just the two of theh, and two more were called over The four of theh to create a sufficient opening for their guests to enter (They had to bend over to enter but not for the Captain)
