Book of Gods and Demons

Medland Glory Calendar August 20th, 1379, noon.

The sound of the ‘rumbling’ pace broke the tranquility of Mount St. Hild. The brigade of the Imperial Army soldiers in iron-gray uniforms, like long gray snakes, blocked the entrance and exit of Mount St. Hild.

Looking down from the top of the mountain, the main battleships of the Jiasijia Island Squadron, with full sails, are cruising in the shallow waters of the fore and back beach areas. All the artillery doors are opened, revealing the black muzzle. .

At the entrance of the winding road from Mount St. Hild to the outside world, two artillery regiments stood in battle, and one field gun was shining with a blue-black cold light in the sun.

All field guns are loaded with shotguns, ready for shelling at any time.

Joe was sitting on a four-wheeled carriage, protruding half of his body from the window, holding a document with the official seal of the Governor of the Southern Special Administrative Region of the Durham Empire and the personal seal of the Duke of Ross.

Including Major General Doron, a total of ten major generals of the Imperial Army with a shining Venus on their shoulders, and a large group of heavily armed school officers riding war horses, surrounded Joe’s carriage and galloped along the winding road to the top of the mountain.

The hilltop area of ​​Mount St. Hild, here you can overlook the entire Port of Tulum, and you can even cross the Cape of Golden Fleece and Cape of Silver Cow, overlooking the sea outside the stormy ocean.

If it is sunny, cloudless, and the best view of the weather, standing on the commanding heights of the mountain top area, you can even see the looming island of Jiaxijia on the sea.

The hills of Mount Saint-Hilde are not large, so the area of ​​the hilltop area is limited. Those who can own a mansion in the hilltop area are all the oldest and strongest nobles in Tulum Port.

For example, the Wells family, one of the Seven-member Committee of Tulum Port, as the head of the indigenous forces in Tulum Port, the ancestors of the Wells family built a fortress in the hilltop area more than two hundred years ago. lighthouse.

As the years passed, the Welsh family continued to expand based on this small fortress and lighthouse, and finally formed a huge-scale luxury manor that occupies almost one-tenth of the mountain top area.

In the hilltop area, the neighbors with the Wells family are all the big figures in Tulum Harbor.

For example, the port of Tulum and the composition of Stom, Claude, and Wenders, the inspector-general of the inspectorate of the Southern Special Zone of the Durham Empire, Marquis Viglar von Hintonburg; another example, the local garrison Commander Major General Longgust; another example is Dogram, the president of the Tulum Port District Court and the third-level justice of the Durham Empire...

The natural environment at the top of the mountain is enough to match these big names.

There are gurgling springs and ancient trees. The luxurious mansions are like works of art, almost perfectly integrated into the surrounding natural environment.

Walking on a flat street, apart from the clean and smooth stone pavement, you can hardly see any artificial creations. It is like walking in a natural jungle, surrounded by blooming flowers, and the ears are full of crisp and sweet birds. Occasionally, in the neatly maintained grass on the side of the road, there will be dexterous and cute little animals passing by.

Joe is like a savage black bear, rushing with a large group of people.

The heavy footsteps of the soldiers of the Imperial Army shattered this wonderful silence.

On the street, a few ladies walking in groups, with a small parasol in their hands and a tow rope on their wrists, were walking their dogs in the mild sunlight, making sharp calls like frightened quails.

Then, they were quickly berated by a group of wolves and tigers, and drove to the grass on the side of the road. The delicate and expensive women's boots were quickly stained with large areas of mud.

The ladies looked at the imperial soldiers who ran past them with expressionless faces, and watched the gun carts ‘rumble’ passing in front of them. The pet dog they were holding was shivering, and kept barking at the soldiers passing by.

A large shepherd dog yelled at the soldiers. It turned around to look at its pale master, opened its mouth abruptly, and bit down at a passing soldier.

‘Boom’!

The soldier raised the flintlock rifle without hesitation and smashed the head of the shepherd dog.

Several ladies screamed at the same time, rolled their eyes, fainted and fell to the ground several times. But this time, they were not treated like Miss Velenya. They fell heavily on the muddy grass that hadn't been dried yet. Their luxurious clothes were dirty, but no one came to help. Put.

The carriage was galloping, the horses were running, and the soldiers were sweating profusely and ran forward with all their strength.

The brigade rushed forward along the tidy road, and soon they came to the core of the hilltop area.

"Enclose, enclose!" Joe whistled sharply.

The soldiers quickly spread to the surroundings, rushing along the fork roads, and enclosing the entire estate of the Wells family in the hilltop area. Especially the gate and the back door were blocked by dozens of field guns.

Joe jumped out of the carriage. He pulled his uniform and adjusted the sterling silver police helmet on his head. He strode to the heavy bronze gate of the Wells house and pulled out the lead-coated copper baton around his waist. , Slammed the door a dozen times.

Joe's brute force is very strong now. The baton is like a siege hammer, and it has made a deep depression in the half-foot-thick bronze gate, and almost missed the hole in the bronze gate.

There was a loud noise from the door, and an angry, messy roar came from the compound behind the door.

Joe coughed, raised his head and roared loudly and majesticly: "In the name of the law, I order you to open the door to cooperate with our actions!"

With a bang, the door of Wells's house slowly opened.

It is worthy of being the number one rich family in the Committee of Seven. When the door of the Wells House opened, there was a clear and audible sound of gear clashing from the thick shaft of the door, and there was a dull steam ‘pouch’ sound from the ground.

Joe couldn't help but grinned, really proud, the main entrance of the Wells Manor was actually an automatic door driven by the power of a steam engine.

Dozens of Wells guards, holding a dozen grinning teeth, ugly, but huge mastiffs rushed out. A middle-aged man dressed as a Jiaxijia native dangling a cigarette made of mixed tobacco in the corner of his mouth scolded angrily: "Who is it, dare to be at Wells's house..."

The middle-aged man couldn't finish his words.

He opened his mouth subconsciously, and the cigarette at the corner of his mouth dropped to the ground.

In front of him, there was a field gun glowing with cold metal in the sun, densely packed soldiers standing neatly, ten imperial military major generals with glittering golden stars on their epaulettes, and a large number of heavily armed senior officers. .

In the Durham Empire, military rank means strength!

"You..." The middle-aged man's face turned pale with a sigh. He was old enough, he inexplicably remembered the past 40 years ago, that time, there was also an army blocking the door...

"In the name of the laws of the Empire, on the order of the Governor of the Southern Special Region of the Empire and Lord Ross, Duke of Jiaxijia, I order you to lay down your weapons and make no changes. Let everyone in the Wells family line up and cooperate with us. Action."

Joe looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, filled with inexplicable pleasure.

Dog Jung Wells, a direct family member of the Wells family, the big boss of the Wells family guard, and Joe’s ‘dead enemy’ who has a ‘deep hatred’!

When Joe's brother Gorkin took Joe to fight with the Wells dudes on the streets of Port Tulum, Doge used to bully the younger one many times and attacked Gorkin...

Moreover, Doge once indulged a vicious dog and almost didn't bite Gorkin and Joe.

Seeing the pale face of Doge, Joe smiled so that his eyes were narrowed. He raised the official document in his hand, and the baton in his right hand poked Doge's stomach fiercely: "Mr. Doge...the weather is really good today. ."

Doge let out a painful cry, covering his stomach with both hands, and he couldn't help bending down.

At this moment, Qiao's physical strength alone is more than 100,000 pounds. With this random jab, Dou Ge, who was caught off guard, felt that his belly seemed to have been poked out of a hole, and his internal organs were violently convulsing and convulsing.

The guards of the Wells family behind Doge, one by one, nervously grabbed the flaming gun handles hanging from their waists.

However, the soldiers of the Imperial Army outside the gate raised their flintlock rifles at the same time. Major General Duolong and the others stepped forward at the same time. An inexplicable pressure came. These guards were stiff and stood one by one. The ground dared not move.

"Joe...Master..." Doge was so painful that cold sweat was coming from his forehead. He gritted his teeth, looked at Joe, and hissed: "I think there must be some misunderstanding. Abiding by the law... Our Patriarch..."

"Abide by the law? No, I have the evidence provided by the Haydn family, which proves that your Wells family is involved in murder, smuggling, rape, breach of justice, provision of military resources to the rebel party, conspiracy to rebel and other serious crimes."

Joe took out the thick kraft paper envelope from his pocket and shook the envelope vigorously: "In addition, you also colluded with heretics...Although the heretics were found in the secret room of the Caban's house, your confession has your prestige. Part of the Els family."

Doge's body shook violently, and he hissed: "This is framed!"

For other charges, Doge would admit it by gritting his teeth. The Wells family has indeed done these things~www.ltnovel.com~ but colluding with heretics... assholes, they really didn't!

Joe leaned close to Doge's ear and laughed softly: "Ah, is it a framing? Oh, maybe it is, but... who cares? Anyway, the confession that Archbishop Laurent personally asked, your Welles family Collusion with heretics, the evidence is solid, you can't get away!"

"Put down your weapon!" Joe suddenly yelled into Doge's ear.

Doge jumped up in shock. Joe raised the baton in his hand and slashed it heavily on his shoulder. With the horrible sound of bone cracking, half of Doge's body collapsed, and he fell on his back with vomiting blood. On the ground.

"Generals, attack!" Qiao Shen said: "Wells family, absolutely don't want to catch it with one's hands, we must attack!"

"No, Wells, I am willing to cooperate with your actions."

A crisp, icy woman's voice came from the manor. Wearing a red palace dress, the gorgeous Haniwei raised her hands and led a large group of people slowly out the door.

Henie Wei stared at Joe coldly: "Your Excellency Joe, what you did made me amazed... Very good, very good, I am looking forward to it. I want to see if Tulum Port is really lawless, let A place where the empire’s laws are humiliated."

Qiao looked deeply at Hai Niwei, then smiled silently.

The soldiers took out the special stainless steel shackles and handcuffed the members of the Welsh family one by one.

Under Qiao's leadership, the group of soldiers moved from the hilltop area to the mid-levels, from the mid-levels to the back beach area, and from the back beach area to the front beach area.

In addition to the Ritto family, six of the Tulum Port Seven-member Committee families, as well as dozens of other homes of indigenous families, were raided by soldiers. Nearly 10,000 big men who used to call the wind and rain in Tulum Port were captured with their hands.
