The Emerald Tower

In the big tent of the far sunset city-state camp.

Dean sat aside, and Dro Thunder talked with Somo, the squadron leader of the Sixth Squadron of the Thunder City Guards, who had escaped from the prison camp.

The two did not lower their voices, and Dean could hear them clearly

"How is it in Thunder City?"

Dro Thunder asked eagerly.

This was the first prisoner of war they encountered to escape from Thunder City when they entered the area of ​​Thunder City, and he was a soldier.

Simply put, Dro Thunder has some expectations for the subordinates in front of him.

He hopes to get more news.

"very bad"

Suomo said with a heavy face: "We prisoners of war and civilians are held separately. After our establishment was disrupted, we were locked up in the original barracks in Thunder City. About 2,000 to 3,000 people were taken every day. Go to the blood sacrifice, and among the civilians, there are also people of the same physical strength who are pulled out of the blood sacrifice. The remaining old, weak, sick and disabled will feed the monsters, but the civilians are too far away from where I am detained. I can't determine the specific number..."

"Asshole"

Dro Thunder cursed with gritted teeth.

Every day, nearly five thousand people are sacrificed in blood, which is like cutting meat and bones to Dro Thunder, who vowed to protect his subjects.

However, even if it was angry, Dro Thunder did not lose his mind.

Take a deep breath.

Dro Thunder continued to ask: "There is a riot in Thunder City, what's the matter?"

"It's a monster"

Suomo suddenly appeared in panic on his face. After a long time, he calmed down the panic in his heart and continued: "Those monster beasts don’t know what happened, they suddenly rioted regardless of their attacks. For humans, whether it is us or the guys in the sunset city, only knows to kill"

"Do not distinguish between enemy and me?"

Dro Thunder was startled.

The monster beast, the companion creature of the blood sacrifice, is a kind of extremely distorted creature. But it will be loyal to those who preside over the blood sacrifice.

Otherwise, such a large-scale blood sacrifice like the Sunset City State, and many monsters appeared, if they did not obey the order. It will only kill itself.

Regarding monsters, this is the experience summed up by the people of Defendilan over the years.

Although it is a twisted creature, there is always a chance to encounter it.

Moreover, there is no shortage of frenzied people anywhere.

So, about the cognition of monsters. The Defendilan people are quite complete.

"Well, yes, regardless of the enemy and me, they are not for food, but for killing... There is not enough food, the monster is so weak, and even eventually disappeared, but in the previous riots, those guys had no plans to eat. The corpses were slaughtered and discarded at will. Thunder City was completely covered."

Suomo nodded and said seriously.

"Did you see anything special in it?"

Dean interrupted suddenly.

"Something special?"

Dro Thunder has already introduced Dean's identity, so Sommer did not get annoyed by Nedean's interruption. On the contrary, he seriously considered Dean's words.

It's just that the scope of Dean's words is a bit too big, so he doesn't know how to answer for a while.

"It can be anything special, such as explosions of light and sound, or sudden fear in the heart, etc."

Dean explained in more detail.

"I'm sorry. Lord Saint, it was too chaotic at the time. I didn't have time to take care of that much, the most special place. I'm afraid it's the riot of monsters, right?"

Suomo thought carefully, and finally shook his head.

This is not evasive or perfunctory.

Dean knows very well that the feeling of being captured by the enemy is not just physical torture, but the fear in his heart is enough to make a qualified fighter vulnerable.

However, Dean was also certain that the monster riot was definitely not a coincidence.

After killing the monster beast, you can obtain the huge power of belief transformed by the power of rules. Dean had a detailed understanding of the monster species.

With Dro Thunder's frank notification, Dean naturally knew the monster beast very well at this moment.

First of all, monsters are companion creatures of blood sacrifices and have a periodic nature.

Under normal circumstances, it takes four weeks to be born.

Secondly, the power of the monster is entirely related to the number of blood sacrifices.

In other words, the greater the number of blood sacrifices, the stronger the accompanying monster beast.

Finally, and most importantly, the monster beast will be loyal to the blood sacrifice from the beginning of its birth, and will fight to death or starve to death.

Yes, the monster will starve to death.

The huge size and twisted will make them seem like a machine that keeps swallowing.

From the beginning of its birth, it has been eating continuously.

Once you stop eating, it will quickly weaken until it finally disappears.

In fact, if it were not for this characteristic, the so-called blood sacrifice would not be banned at all in Defendylan.

Because the monster is so easy to use

A blood sacrifice of three to five thousand people is enough to create a monster beast facing the rank of four to five thousand army.

It's a bargain.

Of course, if the food intake is calculated, it seems a bit tasteless.

Unless it is a war to support war.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to feed the monster beast with a huge amount of food.

What the **** is going on?

Dean frowned slightly, thinking about the characteristics of the monster beast.

He can be sure that something must have happened that caused the monster beast to violate the blood sacrifice rules.

And what happened...

Mobius?

Motthill?

Hawkdas?

Lionel?

The four guys who stepped into the mystery of the gods and entered the real Defendylan, but disappeared, are the most likely and capable of doing such things in Dean's mind.

Needless to say, Mobius, everything in front of him is the trap designed by the other party to deal with the false gods.

Some of the traits of the two false gods of Morthill Hokdas are war killing, especially the former, which itself claims to represent war killing.

Therefore, these two false gods are also possible.

As for Lionel?

Although this false **** claims to pursue the truth.

But Dean definitely doesn't believe that the other party will really only pursue the truth without paying attention to others.

If this is the case, the other party will not participate in this so-called war, but will act as an existence similar to a hermit.

therefore. The anomaly in Thunder City, the four existences of Mobius Mothill Hawk Das Leonel are all suspected.

It's just that Dean can't be sure now.

Moreover, if it is really one or a few of the four existences that did something like that. Dean must revise his plan.

The plan that was originally awaited will definitely fail.

While Dean was thinking, the conversation between Dro Thunder and Somo did not stop.

"How many prisoners escaped?"

Dro Thunder asked him what matters most.

"No less than 20,000 people detained our barracks. I don’t know who set it alight. Under the panic of the defenders of the sunset city-state, our captains directly summoned the old ministry and did a fight with those guys. If not for these two weeks, we didn’t have enough. Food and water. If the physical loss is too severe, the previous riots, maybe we will retake Thunder City."

Suomo said regretfully.

"However, there are also many elites in the defenders of the sunset city. After the initial panic, they immediately suppressed us, causing us to lose a lot of money. Right, that guy Mord is really a **** and even took him. People who don’t fight can’t escape without a fight. That guy is also uncomfortable. The people he leads are all his subordinates, and it can be said that the system is complete. The guys in the sunset city will definitely take care of him.”

Somo's words are inexplicable.

There is anger, but also a little blessing.

Obviously, he didn't really hate the man named Maud.

"Mode? The captain of the 2nd Squadron of the Thunder City Guard Corps?"

Dro Thunder thought about that civilian officer.

A serious, generous, and brave subordinate.

"Well, that guy, did you see him, Your Highness?"

Suomo nodded. Asked immediately.

"No"

Dro Thunder shook his head.

"Really? That guy may have taken other routes. He is so smart and not bad at all, so there will be nothing wrong with him."

Suomo felt sad for a while. Then he said repeatedly as if to comfort himself.

"Well, Maud may have taken another route. I have arranged for people to look around in a roundabout way. Once I find something, I will bring them to Sumo. You take other people to rest first, there is plenty of Food and water, and then, after gathering more people, we will return to Helm."

Dro Thunder said.

"Return to the City of Helm? That... OK, Your Highness"

Suomo subconsciously wanted to say something, but finally chose to obey the order.

"Your soldiers are not willing to fail, they want to return to Thunder City"

Dean looked at the back of Somo leaving, and when the latter completely disappeared behind the tent curtain, he faintly said to Dro Thunder.

"I'm not reconciled to failure. I also want to return to Thunder City... But, likewise, I know I still need to gather strength. Also, there are nearly 20,000 prisoners who have escaped that I need to look for."

Dro Thunder said in a deep voice.

"Ok"

Dean nodded ~www.readwn.com~ and said nothing more.

Dro Thunder has the determination to protect his subjects, so naturally he knows what he can and cannot do.

There is no need for him to mention these things, nor is it his turn to say something.

However, he naturally has things that he needs to accomplish personally.

"Master Saint, you?"

Dro Thunder looked at Dean who stood up and asked with a look of surprise.

"I need to go to Thunder City"

Dean said so.

"What? It can't be too dangerous"

Dro was shocked and immediately retorted loudly.
