lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters on Edge of Doom!
Sitting on a cart, Allen put Aka King between his legs and looked at the street that turned into a slaughterhouse. Soldiers are disintegrating Bingfeng's corpse on the street. Bingfeng's scales and bones are good materials for making superior armor, especially its bones. When the soldiers wash the bones taken out with water, they will see blue silk entangled in the gray of the bones. And inside the head that was cut off by Allen, its skull was even more covered with blue crystals.
Unfortunately, at that time, Allen used death hymns to injure many wounds on its body. The ice wind was invaded by decayed foreign forces, and the bone quality had dropped by a grade. Just think about how hard his skull was when he was in Tallinn Aisha, even if King Scarlet couldn't penetrate his brain with a knife. Besides, if the death hymn hadn't weakened Bingfeng's bone hardness, Alan might not be able to cut off its head smoothly.
Even so, the blacksmiths in Dragonlance are quite satisfied with Ice Wind's bones and scales. And it is sure to be able to use these materials to create high-quality armor. In addition, Bingfeng’s claws are high-quality materials for making weapons, and its meat can be used to feed fierce beasts, and even be released and stored in The blood in the jar can also be sold for a good price. However, the most valuable thing is the dozen or so Yuanli crystal nuclei taken out from Bingfeng's body. The largest one is nearly half a meter in diameter, and the smallest one is the size of a fist. These crystal nuclei contain a very pure source of frost, which is an important material for making the famous armor of the gods, and it is also the most advanced material for alchemy. It is no exaggeration to say that the value of these a dozen crystal nuclei exceeds the sum of the other parts of the ice wind corpse.
Allen has already figured out how to allocate it. He intends to leave the crystal core of Ice Wind himself, whether it is for Lucy to make a special bullet or sell it, he can make a fortune. As for the other parts of Ice Wind, they were left to Dragonlance Town to make up for their losses. Only broken streets can be repaired, and collapsed buildings can be rebuilt. But the people who died in the battle last night could never come back. Allen could not forget that when the families of those deceased brought their bodies back, the children's crying and the wife's calling were deeply imprinted in his mind.
For him, those people may be strangers who have not known each other for less than a day, but for those families, they are the backbone. Now that there are no pillars, their family will be crumbling. Now Allen is wondering, if they left the camp yesterday, would the cavemen still attack the town?
"What are you thinking, Master Ellen?"
I don’t know when, Father Milo sat next to him, and Allen said truthfully: “I’m wondering if things would be different now if I made another choice? Father, this shouldn’t be the case. It was their war, and I brought disasters to them."
"It turns out that's the case." Father Miró squinted his eyes. "Sometimes I really wonder if Archimedes is your father. Because you two have very different personalities, if I knew him That man, if this happened to him. He would say that these people are thanks to me, otherwise it would be more than just death."
Miluo said: "Of course, that **** is an arrogant and selfish guy."
Alan smiled.
"Master Ellen, I often say that the Lord is omnipotent. But about this, I actually quite doubt it. He did it
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Many prophecies, some have been fulfilled, some have not been fulfilled. So you see, even the gods can't fully see what's going on in the next second, let alone you. Life is always faced with countless choices, and every choice is not absolutely right, let alone absolutely wrong. Father Milo stroked the cross on his chest: "All we can do is listen to the inner voice, and then make one of the choices. "
"Like what happened yesterday, yes, if we choose to leave, the cavemen will bypass the town and continue to hunt us. But it is also possible that they attacked this town by the way without our assistance. , This small town has become history forever. But this is a hypothesis after all. As for which ending will happen, even the gods cannot give an answer." Father Milo looked at the residents of the town: "Look at the present again, you have chosen Stay. Yes, some people have died because of it, but at least this town is still there. At least the children of those who died will survive, and they will be extremely hurt, but the bravery of their fathers will be remembered in their hearts and they will be inspired to become A man like his father who can sacrifice to defend his homeland. Maybe because of this, ten years later, this town will have more brave and fearless men. They are the hope of continuing the town."
"You brought disaster and planted hope at the same time. Which is more important depends on you." The priest patted Alan on the shoulder and walked away with a smile.
Allen sat in the car for a while, suddenly stretched out his hand and patted his face, then picked up Aka King and jumped out of the cart. At this time, the mayor, Palo and other men came over. Allen took the opportunity to tell about the distribution of the ice wind. After speaking, Allen said again: "I know this can't fully compensate for your losses, but it can at least solve some of the immediate problems. Difficult."
The mayor sighed: "Since the incident has happened, now we blame you, the dead will not survive. Moreover, even if there is no incident last night, whether our town can continue to exist is also a question. "
Allen heard something in his words, frowned and asked, "Why does the mayor say that?"
"Because the Marquis of Peel had ordered us to move the town not long ago, but did not compensate us for any land. The marquis warned us that if we do not follow what he says, then he will reprimand us by force. We are It’s impossible to move away. Once we came to this town, this piece of land was given by the founding emperor in the past to use for the proliferation of our noble tribe. Secondly, the heroic spirits of our ancestors lay down on this land, and we don’t May be gone. So sooner or later there will be a conflict with that Marquis. Even if there are no cavemen, it is a question of whether we can continue to exist in Dragonlance Town."
"Is there anything like this?"
Paluo nodded and said: "Before the lord comes, in fact, we are already preparing to send people to the imperial capital, and would like to invite His Majesty Tangliou to preside over justice. It's just that the men here rarely leave the town, and go as far I've been to Liquor Town. I heard that the adults are going to the Imperial Capital too, so I wonder if Fang can't bring us along?"
Allen nodded: "No problem." He sneered again: "Marquis Peel, speaking of Abel and the others, they set off yesterday before dark. As a result, they haven't seen half of the reinforcements until now... Don't worry. Regarding this matter, I will deal with it for you. I can’t guarantee success, but I’m sure I will never let Marquis Peel.
(This chapter is not over, please turn the page) It’s over. "
The mayor and Palo are overjoyed, although they have decided to ask God for an explanation. But after all, they are just civilians, it is still unknown whether they can see Emperor Tangliou. Now that the empire Viscount Allen intervened, naturally there was a little more hope.
It wasn't until noon that the army of the Marquis of Peel slowly arrived at Dragonlance, and it was a 500-man vanguard group. When Allen saw Abel and Mira, both of them looked angry. Abel said angrily: "My lord, that Marquis of Peel is too damning. We sent your letter, but although he promised to send troops, he was late to see the action. I urged several times and the answer was the army. Gathering. It wasn't until dawn that these five hundred vanguard groups left the city. Five hundred people, only five hundred people, this guy will have to gather for one night. Isn't this perfunctory what we are?"
At the end of Ellen's answer, one person sneered: "What does a commoner know? You are also worthy to question Lord Marquis. This alone is enough to send you to the gallows!"
Abel flushed and was about to argue. Allen reached out and pressed his shoulders before looking at the man. That was the general under Peel, named Harley. He was in his prime of life, but his eye bags were blue, and his body's vitality was weak. Not to mention that Regis or Lola under Allen can easily defeat him, even Higgs in the borderlands can steadily defeat this person. Allen looked at the so-called legion commander and said calmly: "I think Abel was right. Please Commander Halley tells me why an army of five hundred people has to spend an entire night? What if my commander If you do this, it will be enough for me to cut off his head if it is delaying the military plane!"
Captain Halley said slowly: "The adults don't know, the marquis has always been in peace. The soldiers usually stay at home, and the city is there. It is indeed difficult to gather together."
"So Captain Halley wanted to tell me that the standing army in the barracks of the Marquis of Peel didn't even have five hundred?" Allen sneered.
Halley gave a dry cough and did not answer. Instead, he said, "Since Lord Ellen's crisis has been resolved, there is nothing for us here. If Lord Ellen has nothing to say, then we will leave first."
"Hold on." Allen stopped him and said lightly: "Please tell the Marquis of Peel, I will discuss this matter today in Olis."
Head Halley did not respond directly, but leaned forward and said: "I will bring the words of the adults without missing a word."
Then he took a cloak and left the town with ten guards.
Peel's army came slowly, but moved quickly. Allen stood on the guard wall and watched them leave, clenched his fist and lightly hammered the wall. The Marquis of Peel made it clear that it was a violation of righteousness. He did not want to openly violate the constitution of the empire and did not intend to sincerely support it, so he simply made a big fuss about the timing of the dispatch of troops. I don't know if Peel's move was his own idea or someone behind it was instructed.
Ellen thought for a while and asked Abel to call Edward. Peel put him along, and now Allen can't care about him, but can cause him some trouble.
"I hope you don't really have only five hundred troops in your barracks." Allen murmured.
ps: Will there be monthly reward tickets?
