Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 270 Merger
In a blink of an eye, 18 of the 21 captains fell to their knees.
Including the captain who gave the advice.
Only three others were left. They looked at each other, standing there with their teeth gritted, not saying a word.
Xu Shen glanced at the three of them. One of them seemed to sense the murderous intent in Xu Shen's eyes and said hurriedly: "We will never betray His Highness..."
"I have the Golden Ant Order in my hand. Obeying my orders is equivalent to obeying your Highness. How can this be considered betrayal?"
Xu Shen said calmly.
The captain seemed to suddenly realize something when he heard this, and hurried over: "I am willing to surrender..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped and dodged quickly.
I saw several chains shooting out, like sharp black poisonous snakes, swiping towards me from the air, as fast as lightning.
The captain who had dodged in panic was horrified and shouted hastily: "I want to return..."
Xu Shen didn't answer, just waved his hand.
Chen Han understood and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. He couldn't escape for the sixth time.
I thought that Li Tianzhao would be killed by that A-level monster, so he could save some energy, but...
whoosh!
Transforming into Shura, Chen Han suddenly rushed out and in the blink of an eye he slapped the fleeing captain to the ground.
The ability of the strong attack system has been improved, and all aspects of his physical fitness are twice that of the second state. Combined with the Shura state that ignores abilities and has a super-strong amplification, he is able to crush the average second state.
Even the captain of the Fourth Division, Hua Hailie, was powerless in front of him and his abilities were suppressed.
Specially designed to deal with all the fancy stuff!
After suppressing one man, Chen Han turned and rushed towards the other two captains. The two were equally horrified and hurriedly begged for mercy while trying to avoid Chen Han's pursuit, but they were soon caught up by Chen Han and knocked down with one punch.
One of them was a strong attack type, and he was agile, but he didn't get far before he suddenly stopped where he was and was caught up by Chen Han and slapped to the ground.
It is the nightmare of the Nightmare Bishop.
"Don't play too many tricks in front of me. I'm not interested in exploring." Xu Shen waved his hand, signaling Du Ming to handle it.
The way to deal with them is not to erase them, but to make use of them reasonably.
Hearing Xu Shen's words, the three of them showed fear in their eyes, and at the same time regret in their hearts. They had wanted to have some tricks up their sleeves and take the opportunity to show their loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen Ant, perhaps Xu Shen would look up to them and thus get a better shot.
The result was that he ended up hurting himself.
"I know I was wrong, please let us go..."
The three of them begged for mercy, but were pulled away by Du Ming and others.
Seeing Xu Shen being so cold-blooded and ruthless, the expressions of the others also changed slightly, including the many captains around Chen Han, whose eyes tightened and their fear of Xu Shen deepened.
Da da da!
At this time, the sound of approaching footsteps could be heard from outside.
Everyone felt waves of ruins-destroying power passing by. It was the ruins-destroying devices around them that were activated, and some initial troops sneaked into the ruins.
All other troops in the base rushed here and surrounded the headquarters.
These troops were transferred from the explosion attack outside, so they were much slower. Among them was Ertai who came to report to Li Tianzhao.
"Someone please take charge and keep it quiet outside."
Xu Shen looked calm as he spoke to the 18 dual-state people in front of him.
Soon, several people stood up and said, "Sir, I am in charge of the tank troops. I will ask them to withdraw first to avoid disturbing you."
The name changes very quickly, lackey.
Feng Qing and other guards secretly curled their lips when they saw this.
Xu Shen nodded slightly, indicating his permission.
Soon, several second-states rushed out of the command center and came outside to give orders, and the surrounding and approaching troops immediately stopped.
They did not dare to take the opportunity to escape. After all, who knew where the A-level monster that had just disappeared from Xu Shen's side would be?
Xu Shen then ordered Chen Han to lead the team, select a few people in charge from the two states in front of them, and with the assistance of Lou Haiyin and others, go to control the Xushen Cannon to avoid the scene that happened in the Black Light District before.
Although Kuroxue was still by his side, hiding in the deep ruins so that she could help him at any time, Xu Shen didn't want to see such an accident again.
Chen Han took the order and left. Xu Shen stepped over Li Tianzhao's tattered armor and came to the soft couch where he had been sitting before.
Soon, everything outside the headquarters quieted down.
Xu Shen sat down slowly and waited quietly.
Soon, Chen Han also turned back to report and handed over the control of several Xushen cannons to several captains he brought with him.
Returning with them were eight binary states.
When these eight two-states saw the situation in the command center, they could not hide their shock. At this moment, there were more than 50 two-states gathered in the entire command center!
What a huge scale this is!
Almost all the two states of the two zones are gathered together.
But at this moment, these two states were like believers, standing with their hands hanging down, quietly standing in the command center.
In the front row, there was a group of people kneeling down. They were all captains from the Wumian Military Region. They looked like criminals being interrogated.
In addition, in the open space next to it, where the bloody smell was wafting, there was a tattered piece of armor stained with blood. The patterns on it were exactly the same as Li Tianzhao's armor.
All this information made the eight two-state people stay where they were, and they only reacted when they were pushed forward by Chen Han.
"Behave yourself." Chen Han said unhappily.
The eight people looked at the young man above. That was Li Tianzhao's position, but now it had changed hands.
Some were surprised and confused, some had anger in their eyes and wanted to question, but they held back when they realized the situation was not right.
"Give me back the Golden Ant Order."
Feng Qing came up to the female officer who was behind Li Tianzhao and said with a gloomy look in his eyes.
He felt a little ashamed and angry for losing the Golden Ant Order.
The female officer shivered and quickly took out the Golden Ant Order and handed it to Feng Qing.
Feng Qing took it and was about to turn around and walk towards Xu Shen to hand it back to him.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw Xu Shen holding an eyeball-like soldier in his hand, and said casually: "This is the Golden Ant Order issued by His Highness. I come here on His Highness' orders to help me quell the dissidents in various districts. Do you have any objections?"
Feng Qing stopped and stood there in a daze.
That eyeball... was clearly just a Xu soldier, and it was taken away by the A-level Xu just now after it killed Li Tianzhao.
This is simply lying with open eyes.
The expressions of many captains kneeling on the ground also changed slightly.
But there was an even greater look of fear in their eyes, and no one made a sound.
When Feng Qing saw the reactions of the people around him, he suddenly had a sudden realization.
It turns out that what is really important is not the Golden Ant Order, but the person who holds the Golden Ant Order.
He held the true order, but was examined, despised and neglected.
Even if Xu Shen is holding a straw, he can still intimidate and command everyone.
True or false, it doesn't matter in the face of absolute power.
"Li Tianzhao disobeyed the order of His Highness. As the regional commander, he defected to a different party and pledged allegiance to the Night Rat King. He deserves death for this crime!"
Xu Shen put away the Eyeball Soldier in his hand, with an indifferent expression: "If any of you have defected to the Night Rat King, and now you jump out and submit to me, identify the other people who have been bribed, or provide information about the Night Rat King, I can forgive the crime of treason."
After these words were spoken, the people kneeling in front of him lowered their heads even lower.
The headquarters also became quieter.
"Remember, you only have one chance."
Xu Shen waited for half a minute, and when no one spoke, he slowly said, "I am willing to give people opportunities, but not many, so you must learn to cherish them."
Although these words were spoken lightly, everyone felt a deeper chill and murderous intent.
Perhaps it was because Xu Shen had mercilessly taken down the three scheming people before, showing his majesty and coldness, the silence did not last any longer. The man who was previously identified by everyone as having surrendered to the Night Rat King immediately raised his head and hurriedly said: "I say..."
"It's not your turn yet." Xu Shen interrupted him.
The man was startled and his face turned pale.
If Xu Shen doesn't let him speak, it means he is not giving him a chance!
Is this to... execute him?
His face was pale, fear was in his eyes, and he knocked his head hard on the ground: "Please give me a deal. I had no choice but to surrender to the Night Rat King. He threatened me with my family. If I didn't obey, he would personally arrest me. I have no choice. I don't want to die..."
Faced with his pleading, Xu Shen looked indifferent.
The other captains of the Black Light District sighed secretly. Regardless of whether what this man said was true or false, they seemed to be able to imagine that kind of scene.
Sometimes betrayal is a helpless choice. If you are chosen by the Night Rat King, not betraying means death, and betrayal only gives you a glimmer of hope for survival . You can only blame yourself for your bad luck.
Who made you be chosen?
If you have to choose between the two kings, you will inevitably become a sandwich and die miserably.
This is called being unable to control oneself.
But since ancient times, only fools will forgive those who hurt them.
I can understand, but I won't forgive.
The ignorant will forgive because of understanding, or to put it nicely, this is emotional and kind.
To put it more precisely, they are dominated by their own emotions and are unable to distinguish between feelings and choices. This is often a common problem among the fog people. After all, the fog people cannot see and can only judge and choose based on their feelings.
"Quiet."
Faced with the captain's endless pleas for mercy, Xu Shen only uttered two words.
Although these two words were light, they were like cutting a rice leaf in half, cutting off the other party's endless pleas for mercy.
The captain opened his mouth, fearful and unwilling, and looked at Xu Shen hesitantly, his face full of pleading.
Xu Shen didn't look at him, but just glanced around at the others.
Just when he was about to make a choice, someone immediately said, "I, I am willing to..."
"I, I, I, I said, I know the information about the Night Rat King, and I also know..."
"I, I know."
When the first person in the crowd spoke up, it was like a stone thrown into the lake, immediately causing a thousand waves.
The others also hurriedly spoke up. After all, according to Xu Shen, there was only one spot.
Whoever speaks out first has the chance.
Soon, a rush of identifications emerged.
Seeing these people suddenly pointing fingers and cursing at each other crazily, Feng Qing, Lou Haiyin and others were all shocked and moved.
"Come one by one."
Xu Shen raised his hand to suppress all the quarrels, and then pointed to the person who spoke first: "You speak first, whoever speaks more completely will be exempted from this crime."
The man's expression changed slightly. Xu Shen's words were too revealing and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.
"Thank you, sir."
He thanked him and quickly told him all his news.
He first pointed out other colleagues around him one by one, and then told them some information about the Night Rat King. He also complained about how he was forced to betray the Night Rat King, trying to gain Xu Shen's forgiveness.
But when he saw Xu Shen's slightly frowned brows, he immediately shortened his words and tactfully skipped over them, talking more about intelligence.
When he finished speaking, Xu Shen nodded slightly, then looked at the others: "Who has anything to add?"
The remaining few people looked at each other. Under the captain's nervous gaze, one person stood up and added some information, but the content was not much. It was obvious that the information they got was similar, but the first person might have overlooked some details because of nervousness.
Xu Shen nodded slightly and waved to Chen Han.
Chen Han's heart skipped a beat, and he felt helpless and could only walk towards Xu Shen.
Xu Shen asked him to lean over to his ear and whispered a few words.
Chen Han smiled bitterly to himself, nodded in agreement, then turned around and looked at one of the kneeling captains.
As the man looked up as if he had realized something, Chen Han suddenly became furious, stomped his feet and rushed forward quickly.
The man's face changed drastically, and he quickly stood up and used his ability to resist, but his ability was ineffective in front of Chen Han who entered the Shura state.
As he was shocked, he was knocked to the ground by Chen Han's punch, his hands and feet were twisted, and he screamed in pain.
This man was also one of the traitors identified earlier, but he remained kneeling without moving, and did not compete with others to identify others. It was obvious that he was cowardly and timid.
Chen Han eliminated him to intimidate other traitors.
Xu Shen looked at the frightened eyes of the remaining people and said to the man who had spoken earlier and the captain who added the story: "You two will be exempted from the charge of treason. Stay aside."
The two were stunned and overjoyed. They thanked him quickly and stood up and stood aside.
Looking at the other people who were still kneeling in front of Xu Shen, they both felt a sense of superiority and relief in their hearts, secretly happy, and at the same time they also felt a sense of conviction towards Xu Shen.
The other betrayers turned pale and looked at Xu Shen nervously.
"Your betrayal of His Highness is a capital crime, but considering your past merits, you will be punished from now on. If you behave well, this crime can be forgiven if you make first-class merits," said Xu Shen.
These people were stunned and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"The rest of you, keep your duties as before and be loyal to me from now on. My words are your Highness' words, and my orders are your Highness' orders. Anyone who disobeys or refuses to obey will be punished with death. There will be no mercy!"
Xu Shen said indifferently.
Everyone looked at each other, with different thoughts in their minds, and thanked him repeatedly.
"In the next few months, the two districts will be merged. In order to effectively eradicate the opposition party, you must work together. At that time, transfers and frictions between positions can be reported." Xu Shen said.
merge?
After hearing Xu Shen's words, everyone looked at each other. This was the first time they had heard of such a thing.
Chen Han's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at Xu Shen, and then quickly lowered his head to prevent Xu Shen from seeing his thoughts.
At this moment, Chen Han already suspected that Xu Shen had intended to betray the queen ant.
The biggest traitor here is probably the young man in front of us.
However, he naturally did not dare to reveal such thoughts, and he did not even dare to look Xu Shen in the eye, for fear that his thoughts would be seen.
He felt an extremely strong pressure from Xu Shen, which was no less nervous than when he was in front of the queen ant.
"As for you."
Xu Shen looked at the captain who had been ignored all along and asked, "Did you come up with the plan of ambush us with four Xushen cannons?"
The captain's face turned pale, and he quickly said, "It was Commander Li who came up with it. I just told him the information from the Black Light District..."
"Sir, he is the Night Rat King's man, and was arranged to come here a few days ago." The traitor captain who first jumped out to identify him said hurriedly.
Xu Shen nodded slightly and said, "So, he is a spy sent here to assist Li Tianzhao?"
"I……"
The man was pale and unable to defend himself.
"Tell me about the Night Rat King. Do you know where he is? Where is your headquarters?" Xu Shen said calmly: "Maybe I will give you a chance to turn from darkness to light."
The man's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "I'll tell you, I know more than them!"
Then, at Xu Shen's signal, he began to talk incessantly.
He successively gave out intelligence about two sleepless zones to the Anbu.
There are also some bribed spies in the military who are responsible for passing on intelligence.
"The Night Rat King's whereabouts are mysterious, and we don't know either. I only know that he occasionally appears in the intelligence department of each district, and most of the time only a few second-states at the headquarters can contact him ."
