Five minutes ago, inside the passenger spacecraft of the Ancient Snake Company.
Chunzi and Peng Wei held guns in their hands, aiming at the dozens of trembling hostages in front of them.
"We only make money, not kill people!"
Chunzi grinned and said, "As long as the money you pay satisfies me, I promise I won't hurt a hair on your head!"
"Now, hand over all the valuable things you have on you. Don't hide them. Otherwise, if I dig them out, I will have to send you on your way with regret!"
Dozens of hostages looked at each other, then scrambled to take out valuables from their bodies and threw them into a large duffel bag placed in front of them.
"Very good! Thank you for your cooperation!" Chunzi said with a smile.
"Peng Wei, Chunzi, what's going on over there? I detected a spacecraft approaching us!"
Dr. Gale said through the intercom: "Logically speaking, it is impossible for the guard patrol boat of the Ancient Snake Company to arrive so quickly, but for the sake of safety, we should call it a day and retreat early."
"knew!"
Chunzi and Peng Wei responded and started to pack their things. At this time, a huge spaceship flew past the glass window. Chunzi stopped and looked up, his eyes gradually widening.
"Peng Wei! Peng Wei! Look, is this... Rakshasa's spaceship?!"
"Rakshasa?"
Peng Wei also stopped and ran to the window to look at the spaceship flying into the distance. After a while, he nodded: "That's right! It's Rakshasa's spaceship. I will never remember it wrong!"
"Didn't he and Xiaotu leave our world? How could they come back?" Chunzi felt strange.
Peng Wei thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps there is something unfinished here?"
"Hmph! These guys are so careless! Why don't they come to us when they come back?"
Chunzi said angrily: "Thankfully I still regard him as a good friend."
Peng Wei smiled and said: "We are pirates now. We live a sneaky life and don't dare to let others know our whereabouts. How do you want them to find us?"
Chunzi thought for a while and said, "That's right..."
Turning her head, she suddenly raised her gun and fired, frightening several hostages who were sneaking around and trying to escape so that they fell to the ground with their heads in their hands.
"You guys! Did I let you go?"
Chunzi cursed and walked over, kicked each of the hostages back, and said: "I feel unhappy, you all should be honest!"
Peng Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head. This girl was unhappy and took it out on these hostages.
He turned to look in the direction of the moon and said in his heart: "I wonder if Rakshasa will visit Ina when he comes back..."
…
The Steel Titan slowly approached the moon. Zhang Ze told the Steel Titan the location of the Crescent Base. The latter immediately locked the target and flew away quickly.
When they arrived at the Crescent Base, they were discovered by the base and immediately sent a request for help to the headquarters of the Ancient Snake Company.
However, it will take at least two hours for the ancient snake company's security forces to reach the Crescent Base.
By that time, Zhang Ze and the others had already settled the battle.
After paying homage first, Zhang Ze issued an ultimatum to Crescent Base through Steel Titan, ordering them to surrender immediately, otherwise they would destroy Crescent Base.
The latter refused to surrender at first, but after the Iron Titan's two cannons destroyed two small bases nearby, they finally recognized the reality and chose to surrender.
Afterwards, Zhang Ze and others successfully entered the Crescent Base and found the stone gate and the key to clearance.
"Okay, you can now clear this level of the Demonic Realm. Let's go to the 51st level quickly."
Zhang Ze briefly explained the situation of the next level of the Demon Realm to Lin Junyang and others. Lin Junyang asked curiously: "Old Zhang, aren't you leaving?"
"I still have some things to deal with, so you can leave first."
Zhang Ze waved goodbye to Lin Junyang and Song Xiaotong.
Liu Yueying looked at Zhang Ze and asked, "Do you want to see Ina? I'll go with you."
Zhang Ze nodded and took her hand out of the Crescent Base.
The two came to Ina's grave. Zhang Ze found that someone had piled small stones in front of her tombstone, and a photo was pressed under the stone.
It is a group photo of Ina, Arthur and Haruko and their entire team.
Zhang Ze and Liu Yueying thought that Chunzi and the others should have done this when they passed by.
After saying a few words to Ina in front of the tombstone, Zhang Ze and Liu Yueying returned to the base. Everyone left here and returned to the 58th level of the Demon Realm.
As soon as they appeared, they heard shouts from outside the camp: "Everyone gather in front of the prince's camp immediately! Hurry up!"
Zhang Ze and others also set off immediately and followed the crowd to gather in the open space in front of Prince Edward's tent.
Hundreds of people lined up neatly, waiting for the prince and Knight Commander Elliot to lecture.
Soon, Prince Edward and Knight Commander Elliot walked out of the tent, both of them looking solemn.
"Here I want to tell you some unfortunate news. A few days ago, the missing child in the territory was found, but he had been killed by flesh-eaters and his body was mutilated... This is the seventh unfortunate death in our territory in the past six months. personal!"
Knight Commander Elliot looked serious and said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince and I don't want this to happen again, and the people in the territory can no longer bear the pain of losing their loved ones, so His Highness the Prince decided to send you to exterminate the carnivores. !”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a buzz of discussion among the crowd.
Some people are excited, some are nervous, and some are fearful.
"Quiet!" Knight Commander Elliot shouted, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
Prince Edward stepped forward and said calmly to everyone: "I know some of you are afraid of fighting carnivores because they are monsters, stronger and stronger than us, but we can't just watch. They continue to hurt our people."
"I think many of you must have experienced such pain. Your relatives and friends died at the hands of monsters, and even became their food. Are you willing for such tragedies to happen again and again?"
"When I recruited you, I told you that the enemies we have to face are more powerful than these flesh-eating monsters. If you can't even overcome this difficulty, then don't talk about more lofty ideals and ambitions! "
"Today's battle is a test, and it is also a test of your will! If you can accept it and pass the test, then stay with me. If you can't, I won't force you. You can return to the territory and spend your time as ordinary people. For the rest of my life.”
"The choice is in your hands, you can decide for yourself. I just hope that when you grow old, you will not regret that you did not work hard when you were young!"
After speaking, Prince Edward returned to Knight Elliot, leaving time for the group of young soldiers in front of him.
Discussions started again, but the expressions on many people's faces became determined. They were willing to follow the prince because the prince had brought huge changes to their lives.
Before, their territory was exploited by the lords, and many people did not have enough to eat or wear, and some even starved to death!
Since the prince came, their life has been getting better and better. Although they are not rich in food and clothing, at least they are not hungry anymore.
So they think the prince is their savior, and everyone supports the prince very much.
"Your Highness, we are willing to follow you!"
The captain of the sixth team stood up, bowed to His Royal Highness, put his right fist on his chest, and solemnly swore an oath.
His team members followed him, all pledging their allegiance.
The situation spread quickly and everyone swore fealty to the prince.
Of course Zhang Ze and others followed suit. After all, they had no other choice now but to follow the development of the "plot".
"very good!"
Prince Edward was very satisfied. He smiled and said: "I am very happy to see that everyone is of the same mind as me. I hope we can fight side by side and finally realize our ideals!"
Knight Commander Elliot said: "Now, all the captains of the teams come in, and we will study how to attack the predator's lair."
Zhang Ze nodded to the Giant God, Dragon King and others, and followed the other captains into the prince's camp.
There was a parchment map on the table, and everyone gathered around it. Knight Commander Elliot used a small stone to represent the lair of the predators.
"Our current location is the green emerald forest in the south of the frozen territory. After the exploration of the third team, we found that the carnivore's lair is outside the green emerald forest. If we continue walking south, about a thousand meters, we can see an underground place. The cave from which those flesh-eaters emerged."
"What we have to do is to block the exit of this cave and never let these monsters come out from inside to harm people."
After speaking, he looked at everyone and asked, "Which of you still has questions? You can ask questions now."
A female captain raised her hand and asked: "Master Knight, what can we do to block the exit of the cave?"
"It's very simple. I have already asked people to buy explosives in advance!"
Knight Commander Elliot said: "As long as you place the explosives at the entrance of the cave and then ignite it, the explosion of the explosives will collapse the entrance of the cave, so those monsters will not be able to get out."
"But there is a problem here. After the observation of the third team, there are a large number of carnivores operating near the cave. They will not just watch us deploy explosives there, and will definitely launch an attack. Therefore, we still need someone to deal with these Flesh-eaters, buy time to plant the explosives.”
Another fat male captain raised his hand and asked: "Master Knight, do you know the exact number of carnivores? We should be mentally prepared."
"I can't provide an exact number."
Knight Commander Elliot shook his head and said: "Because those carnivores usually hide in caves and only come out to look for food when they are hungry, so we don't know how many monsters there are in that cave now."
"However, there are about thirty or fifty carnivores moving around. There are more of us than them. Plus I'm here to take charge, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
"Of course, we can't say that this operation is not dangerous at all. You should have seen how powerful the flesh-eaters are. If you don't pay attention, you will be the one who suffers."
Everyone present nodded.
"Okay, now I'll arrange the specific tasks."
"The ninth and tenth squads carry and install explosives, the eighth, seventh, sixth, fifth, fourth and third squads are responsible for surrounding security, the first, second and third squads are responsible for protecting the prince, and As a reserve team, support other teams at any time.”
"I will also follow you, but I will not take action unless I encounter serious danger."
Knight Commander Elliot crossed his shoulders and said: "You have to rely on yourselves this time, because in the future, you will all become independent figures. You cannot always be under my protection. Only by accepting the wind and rain can you grow up as quickly as possible. "
"Okay, everyone, go back and mobilize your team members. We will set off in an hour. Do you understand?"
"Yes! Lord Knight!"
A group of people walked out of the camp. Morton suddenly grabbed Zhang Ze and said with a stern face: "If you dare to hold us back after today's actions, I would rather accept punishment than break your legs!"
Zhang Ze frowned. Although he guessed that his body might have done something disgraceful before and made the other party angry, Morton's aggressive attitude still made him feel very unhappy.
"Are you sure it's me and not you who's holding us back?" Zhang Ze said coldly.
"What did you say!?" Morton's eyes suddenly widened and his face turned red with anger: "Then let's go through two moves to see who is holding us back!"
Zhang Ze will naturally not refuse, he will let this guy understand that he is not a soft persimmon!
The people around them immediately stopped them, and one of the female captains yelled angrily: "We are about to fight monsters, and you are actually fighting with your own people! Or are you not a man?"
Zhang Ze remembered that this woman was the captain of the first team, named Maya.
"Captain Morton, you don't deserve to be punished because of this guy!"
Henry, the captain of the fifth team, a chubby young man, took Morton’s arm and said, “He is just a bastard!”
Several other captains also nodded, and it seemed that they didn't have a good impression of Zhang Ze either.
Morton snorted coldly, shook off the others' hands, and said: "You are right, he is a bastard! I am so stupid to compete with a bastard!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The other captains also glanced at Zhang Ze with contempt in their eyes, and followed Morton away.
At this time, only Zhang Ze and the female captain named Maya are left here.
"I want to know why Morton hates me so much?"
Zhang Ze looked at Maya, who pursed her lips and said, "Have you really lost your memory?"
"Yes." Zhang Ze nodded.
Maya took a deep breath and said: "In the last operation, you cooperated with Morton's team to hunt down a group of robbers, but they were ambushed by the other party. Morton and you discussed breaking out together, but you only cared about your own people and did not care about them. Morton…”
"In the end, four people from Morton's team died, and he was punished for it, so he hates you very much!"
Zhang Ze's mouth moved, but nothing came out.
"I didn't expect that the original owner of this body would be so rubbish!"
