Monarch of Evernight: Three Expeditionary Forces
bsp;A group of soldiers in black uniforms came from the direction outside the town. Although there were only a dozen of them, each of them had a strong smell of blood. On their armbands is a cross pattern of muskets and **** bayonets. That is the emblem of the Imperial Expeditionary Force!
The gate of the town has completely collapsed, the broken pipes are spraying steam outward in vain, and several houses around the gate have been blown away by the blast. The bald sergeant was half buried in the rubble, groaning softly.
Because the town gate blocked the way of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, they simply blasted open the gate of Lighthouse Town.
Behind the soldiers of the expeditionary force, there were dozens of people staggering behind them. They were covered in bruises and their hands were tied with wires and locked in a string. The rusty wire cut deeply into their flesh, and the wounds were still dripping with blood. If these people walked a little slower, the expeditionary soldiers next to them would whip them up.
In the darkness, the group of imperial soldiers turned around and walked towards the bar.
Two tall warriors walked into the bar first and glanced around.
Their eyes were as sharp as eagles, and no one in the entire bar dared to look at them. The automatic rifles in the hands of these two warriors were so powerful that they could turn the entire people in the bar into corpses in less than a minute.
A soldier pointed to Qianye and said coldly: "Prepare food for twenty people. Be quick!"
Another soldier pointed his gun at the scavengers and shouted: "You dirty pigs, clean the table and get out! Now!"
The scavengers laughed as hard as they could, cleaned the tables at lightning speed, and then escaped from the bar. Others consciously gave up the best tables and hid in the corners. The Imperial Army didn't let them leave, but none of them dared to move.
A tall officer walked into the bar slowly and lowered his head as he passed the door frame.
He had a pair of thick sword eyebrows, and his eyes were like the most ferocious and cunning nighthawk in the Realm of Eternal Night. He glanced at everyone in the bar with the eyes of prey, then chose a table in the center and sat down.
There was a sound of beating and scolding outside, and the dozens of people were driven in by the soldiers of the expeditionary force, and then crowded and stood in the corner.
The officer glanced at the people in the bar and said in a low and hoarse voice: "Look at them! These are guys contaminated by the blood of darkness. What awaits them will be the dark mines! They will be there They mine until they die, until the black blood breaks out, and they become monsters that only thirst for new flesh and blood, and then they are killed by the guards. Open your eyes and take a good look! Anyone who falls to the side of Yongye will be like this. End! ”
There was fear in everyone's eyes.
These captured people all have a common title, blood slaves. Anyone bitten by a vampire will be contaminated by the dark blood and turn into a beast that has lost its mind. When it's time to eat, they will be thirsty for fresh flesh and blood. When ordered by the superior, they will attack the target crazily until they die in battle.
Anywhere under the rule of the empire, as long as a blood slave is found, he will be executed on the spot. The few who have not yet suffered an attack will be sent to the black mines to mine until they die in the mines.
Pure-blooded vampires are very rare, but blood slaves are also high-risk creatures. According to legend, as long as they are scratched or bitten by a blood slave, or even get close to them, they are likely to be contaminated by the blood of darkness. The original guests and women of the bar huddled together and shivered, trying desperately to stay away from the blood slaves.
At this time, a middle-aged man suddenly rushed out from the captured blood slaves, knelt down in front of the officer with a plop, and shouted loudly: "I am not a blood slave, I am not contaminated by the blood of darkness!"
A twisted and sinister smile appeared on the officer's face and he said, "I know."
The middle-aged man was startled and raised his head in astonishment, unable to believe his ears. But what greeted him was the dark muzzle of the gun!
There was a loud bang, and all the bottles and glasses in the bar were shaking. The middle-aged man was still kneeling, but his head had been completely smashed, and blood and brains were splashed on the floor.
The officer blew the smoke from the muzzle of the gun and said to the headless corpse: "I know you are not a blood slave, but the crime of harboring a blood slave is the same."
A soldier took a step forward and asked: "Lieutenant Colonel Liu, do you want his two sons to be dealt with together?"
The officer glanced at the group of blood slaves, and there stood two pale young men, the sons of middle-aged men. They shrank and tried to hide behind others.
The officer surnamed Liu pointed at them and said: "You two, come out, throw this body out to feed the dogs, and then wash the ground clean! I hate the smell of blood."
Two young men walked out tremblingly and obediently carried their father's body out. Everyone here knows that if they resist, the Imperial Expeditionary Force has hundreds of ways to make life worse than death.
Just when the eyes of the officer surnamed Liu and the imperial soldiers were attracted, someone from the group of blood slaves suddenly screamed, "I don't want to go to the black mine!" and rushed towards the back door of the bar, trying to escape from there.
A ferocious smile appeared on the officer's face again, he took off a strange rifle from his back and aimed it at the back of the escaped blood slave. His movements seemed slow but were actually fast. When a few blue lines on the rifle body lit up, the blood slave rushed through half the hall.
At this moment Qianye just walked out of the door holding a dinner plate.
At this moment, the muzzles of Qianye, the blood slave and the officer were aligned in a straight line!
The officer saw Qianye, but the corners of his mouth moved and he still pulled the trigger!
What sprayed out from the muzzle of the rifle was not a bullet, but a ball of red light!
A huge hole suddenly appeared in the center of the blood slave's body. In the blood foam and broken flesh, the red light continued to move forward. It blasted through two walls one after another, and then disappeared after all its strength was exhausted. The power of this red light is so extraordinary that it can be compared with a large-caliber machine gun!
Qianye's body was not shattered or even injured. At this moment, his body was tilted weirdly at 45 degrees, and his feet were stuck on the ground like nails, just out of the officer's shooting line.
With a soft click, a drop of blood fell from the sky, fell on Qianye's face, and a small blood flower bloomed. Against the backdrop of pale skin, this splatter of blood looked particularly dazzling.
Qianye's breathing suddenly became heavier, and an imperceptible crimson flashed deep in his eyes. However, this abnormality only passed away in a flash. Qianye's body seemed to be pulled by invisible threads and he stood upright again without spilling a drop of the wine on the plate.
With a plop, the blood slave's body fell to the ground. A hand stretched forward desperately was only a few centimeters away from Qianye's toes.
The officer surnamed Liu shrank his pupils, suddenly laughed, and said: "I didn't expect to see a true master who has awakened the Force in such a small place! This is really surprising!"
Qianye whispered: "I'm just barely alive."
The officer's eyes were as sharp as a knife, he stared at Qianye and asked, "Are you not eighteen yet?"
"Early seventeen." Qianye answered.
The officer walked around Qianye a few times and said, "You have ignited the Force node when you were just seventeen years old. This talent is quite good! With the Force and being so young, you could have had a lot of future. But hiding in this small place, why does it look so difficult?”
Qianye remained silent and did not answer.
The officer took out a metal nameplate with the Expeditionary Force emblem printed on it, threw it into Qianye's dinner plate, and said, "My name is Liu Jiang. I don't care who you are or what you have done. If you want, you can Take this nameplate and go to the Expeditionary Force Fortress to find Lieutenant Colonel Chu Xiong. He is currently short of manpower. As long as you join the Imperial Expeditionary Force, no matter what you have done in the past, even if you kill nobles in the upper continent, it will not matter. Got it? ”
Qianye bowed slightly and said, "Thank you!" Faced with this recruitment opportunity that many people dreamed of, he didn't react much.
Liu Jiang saw that Qianye didn't seem very interested in joining the expeditionary force and had no intention of forcing him, so he returned to his seat and sat down. Qianye placed a large glass of strong wine and a plate of potatoes and bacon in front of him.
The officer picked up the wine glass and smelled it, his eyes lit up and he said: "Good wine! I didn't expect to encounter such good wine in this small place. If Chu Xiong knew about your craftsmanship, he would definitely have you." "However, he immediately put down the glass and said, "Okay, go get me a glass of water. I never drink when I'm on a mission."
Qianye then took away the wine glass and replaced it with water for Liu Jiang.
This is the empire’s expeditionary force stationed in the Evernight Continent. On the one hand, they are cruel and violent, fierce and tyrannical, and murderous. On the other hand, throughout the Realm of Eternal Night, the expeditionary legions numbering in the millions are the mainstay against the dark race. With their presence, human gathering places such as Lighthouse Town will not be impacted by a large number of dark races.
Qianye brought out plates of food. The imperial soldiers munched their heads and no one spoke. The bar suddenly became quiet, and everyone felt oppressive, but no one dared to move, and no one dared to leave the bar.
The imperial soldiers were only halfway through eating when the door of the bar suddenly opened silently, and two men in black trench coats walked in.
They were spotless, so clean and tidy that they were incompatible with the wilderness. And the strange thing is that no one noticed their arrival before they appeared.
As soon as they entered the bar, the two people glanced around. Every time they saw something, their eyebrows would frown more tightly, as if there was nothing here that could satisfy them, including these imperial troops.
Liu Jiang saw a logo on the corner of their windbreaker, his expression changed, and he stood up immediately. But just as he was about to say something, a man in black said coldly: "Did I tell you to stand up?"
Liu Jiang was furious, but as soon as he made eye contact with this man, he suddenly seemed to be hit hard. He groaned and fell back to his original position. His face suddenly turned pale. It was obvious that he was severely injured just by this moment. .
The man snorted and said contemptuously: "A bunch of losers, no wonder they can only stay in this **** place. If we really relied on you to deal with the dark race, the empire would have been destroyed long ago."
The corners of Liu Jiang's mouth twitched, he wiped away the seeping blood, raised his hand to signal his soldiers not to move, and asked in a hoarse voice: "What are you doing in this abandoned place?"
Another person said coldly: "You don't deserve to know! If you say one more word, I will kill you all!"
The veins on Liu Jiang's neck kept beating. He moved his hand towards the Force gun behind his back, but wisely stopped.
Seeing this scene, the two men wrapped in black trench coats became even more disdainful.
At this time, an old voice sounded outside the door: "Miss, this place is not clean. There are not only blood slaves in it, but also some scum from the expeditionary force. You'd better not go in, right?"
