Chapter 736 (1/1)
Looking back a little bit, before the fire was big enough for the witch to send kuila, there was a bloody killing on the beach outside kuira's hut. ”Kill that witch! Lost heart Bay belongs to us! ” The man, dressed in more gorgeous clothes than a sailor, waved his machete and pointed to Haila standing on the reef. The sailors behind him made meaningless shouts and rushed to the lonely figure. There was a slight pause in their charge as another, larger figure emerged from behind the reef.
Shanguai, the former gatekeeper, has now been liberated from his last post. The strong man in heavy armor holds an iron gun more than one person in his right hand and a bloody head in his left hand. As for the body corresponding to this head, from the ferocious fracture on his neck, it is obvious that it has lost the significance of existence. The sailors saw this scene with obvious hesitation on their faces. They were thinking whether their own strength could kill the monster and whether they could live when they killed the monster.
This kind of thinking is meaningless, because for any reason, Hera would not allow the sailors to escape the beach alive. The witch gently waved the rose in her hand, and the soldiers in heavy armor rushed towards the sailors like a chariot. He threw the head he held in his left hand to an unfortunate man. The iron gun stained with blood left a peculiar smell of blood in the air. The smell didn't irritate the mountain monster. The eyes covered by the heavy helmet were still cold. As a loyal guard of the witch, he will not be excited by the killing, nor will he shrink from injury. The result of the battle is not important to him, so is the process. What he obeys is only the motivation ordered by his master.
”You found them.” Further out of the beach, on a stretch of reefs, the net worm, bobcat and Seth hide in the shadows, peering at what's going on on on the beach. This fight doesn't require them to do it, it doesn't even need Haila to do it. The maids have no doubt that even if the mountain monster is unarmed, the gatekeeper can torture these guys to death one by one with his strange power when his heavy armor can completely defend the sailors' machetes. What she suspects is why the intelligence dealers sent these poor people here to die.
”Not exactly, ma'am.” Bobcat is not as attentive to the killing on the beach as Cech does. He has not seen the same scene. Even if it is a scene he has never seen, the killing itself has already made this man feel tired and even disgusted. So instead of fighting, he'd rather look at the sea and say, ”you think they're my substitutes, poor ones. But in their view, they are fighting for a new order in the lost heart Bay, or in other words, what they strive for. And I have never deceived them about this battle. The evidence is that they have not yet fled. I just, give these hungry fish some bait, they can't wait to get into the net
”Incitement is worse than deception.” Said the maid in a deep voice. She had heard Lothar tell stories about the devil, and she had seen the power of speech in her early years. Most of the time, an orator can bring more than a skilled general. Because the latter can only give soldiers confidence, while the former can turn all people into soldiers.
”Incitement? No, no, no, no, ”Bobcat's head was shaking like a rattle, and he seemed very dissatisfied with the net worm's words.” incitement is a kind of speech, a technique that makes people lose their cool judgment. And I would never do that. I'm a businessman. I only sell goods and never emphasize their use. Those who buy from me, I don't teach them how to use what they buy. Once the goods are sold, it has nothing to do with me. They have come to this point because of their own judgment and excessive greed
”And you? You don't do this because of greed? What did the witch promise you? Wealth, power or women? ” The maid didn't hate sailors, probably because she had lived on the dock for some time, so she knew that although most of them were assholes, there were many kinds of assholes.
”Greed, oh, maybe. But I'm not talking about it for you. It's like pictures on the beach that can be swept away by the waves at any time. I'm trying to be more real, more tangible, something like the air we breathe and the food and water in our stomachs. From this point of view, I am no different from the group on the beach. Sailors love freedom more than air. I also have my own precious things. We are all hungry beasts. We are willing to give our lives to fill our stomachs. ”
People who have been friends with Bobcats for a long time will have a feeling that what this guy says when he doesn't suck blubber is more strange than after. Fortunately, even Bobcat's brother does not know his brother very well. So far, no one has ever felt this kind of feeling.
The net worm frowned. She didn't object to HeLa's plan, but she didn't know there would be so many sacrifices. What are the lives of these people? In order to save Ellie from a dead soul, should these people die like this? Once upon a time, the mercenary would not think about such a problem. She only took money to do things. But, I don't know when, she changed. This change is not good or bad, because it has already happened. However, her unhappiness did not affect the net worm's reaction. She pulled the child back almost as soon as she wanted to get out of the shadow. And said in a reproachful tone, ”what are you going to do?”The boy tried to break free of the mercenary's hand, but he was too thin. After several failed attempts, Seth put his other hand on the blindfold. But nothing happened. The shadow beast in his eyes didn't obey his orders. The cold iron amulet on the net worm made this creature from other worlds quite uncomfortable. ”Let me go, and I'm going to fight for Ms. HeLa, too! I can kill her enemies like a mountain monster Said the boy in a loud voice.
”If she needs your help, she will.” The maid almost lifted the whole man from the ground. Her tone and manner, coupled with the momentum generated by years of mercenary career, made the boy quiet at a speed visible to the naked eye. ”You're just a child. It's too cruel just to witness the killing. Don't make yourself worse, that's what Hera wants to tell you
At the mention of Hera, Seth's head dropped. But he was not willing to lift up soon, ”how do you know? I can do anything for Ms. HeLa! ”
The boy's words seemed to stimulate the net worm. She was silent for a few seconds, her face covered by the shadow of her hair. If she then starts to hit Cech, bobcats standing by will not be surprised. But the webworm didn't, she said in a calm voice, ”I took the step you wanted to take when I was eight. It makes me regret it to this day. ”
……
Time goes back to the present, and the hot wind from the fire blows at the net worm's hair, and she looks back at the quiet sea before following others into the city. If I were not a mercenary now, would we be able to get together more smoothly?
