Shu Lingrui turned to Raymond and said, "Although Jiang Ze will not be able to find this place for a while, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. General Raymond, how much time do you think you need to think about it? Let me see if I can wait."
"I probably... probably... hey... otherwise, this boiled snowbird is already cooked, why not eat a snowbird together? There should be time to eat a snowbird."
"This..." Shu Linrui looked at the snowbird in the iron bucket and said with a smile, "Well, since General Raymond kindly invited me, I have to give you this face. But I really don't have much time. I hope to eat After finishing this snowbird, can you give me an answer."
"sure."
After speaking, Raymond increased his strength and body protection ability, then fished the snowbird out of the boiling water with his bare hands and quickly plucked all its feathers. After being cooked in boiling water, the feathers of the snowbird fell off cleanly, revealing the white and tender meat.
Raymond pulled out a big bird leg and handed it to Shu Linrui and asked, "It may not have much flavor, but the meat of the snowbird is really tender."
"Ah, I thought about it. Although I didn't bring salt, I brought seasoning powder with me. Sprinkle some on it and it will be delicious." After Shu Linrui finished speaking, she took out a small seasoning bottle.
The snowbird after being sprinkled with seasoning powder did become extremely delicious, but Raymond couldn't eat it with gusto like Shu Linrui. He fell into deep thought again...
If you join the Menes Empire, you will be involved in a war between two powerful countries. The Yan Kingdom is not a fuel-saving lamp, and this kind of war may not end for a while. In addition, there are countless strong men in the Yan Kingdom. Even if Lei Meng is very strong, he cannot say that he will be able to save his life every time on the battlefield.
The worse situation is that Yan Kingdom has not been destroyed and his body is missing, let alone returning to Tianzhu to avenge Jiang Ze.
However, if he did not go to the Menes Empire, where would Raymond go?
Will you continue to stay in Yecheng? Does it make sense? Organize a revolutionary army like Zhao Yongheng? But it was the people of Yecheng who suffered. But Raymond's hatred was only directed at Jiang Ze, not the innocent civilians in Yecheng.
This city should not have had any new casualties.
Maybe leaving is indeed a way out.
Although he doesn't know Jiang Ze very well, Lei Meng firmly believes that Jiang Ze's pace will not stop in Yecheng. He will definitely get bigger and bigger. Perhaps in the future, he will confront Jiang Ze on the battlefield of Asia.
Yes, Menes' ultimate goal is the entire continent of Asia, so one day there will be a war with the Lie Kingdom. When the time comes, Raymond may be able to lead an army of one million people to take revenge on Jiang Ze. At that time, no matter how many people die, it will have nothing to do with the civilians far away in Yecheng.
Once Jiang Ze is defeated, the Lie Kingdom will be destroyed. Then couldn’t Lei Meng peacefully regain the territory of Chu? By then, no innocent Chu people will die under the butcher's knife.
After thinking about it, Raymond's inner balance gradually tilted towards surrendering to the Menes Empire.
Raymond put down the bird's legs, raised his head and said to Shu Linrui: "I've finished eating, how about you?"
"I'm fine too. Has General Raymond decided to leave with me?"
"Well, I'd like to go with you."
"Ah, no, I made a mistake. I should have gone with you." Shu Linrui suddenly laughed.
"What's the meaning?"
"You also know that Jiang Ze has sent a super elite team to investigate me. Although my three followers will protect me, I don't want to cause trouble. I wonder if General Lei Meng can use space powers to send us out of Yecheng."
"Of course. However, I can't confirm whether Ye City is fully closed now, and I don't know how the repair status of the city wall is."
"The city wall of Yecheng was riddled with holes, and coupled with the lack of manpower of the martyrs, there must be some areas that have not been repaired."
"But what if the repairs are completed?"
"Then why don't you give it a try?"
"this……"
Raymond was suddenly a little hesitant, because initiating ultra-long-distance space transmission required all of his powers. After activation, even if the space does not come out, all the superpowers will be exhausted. Although Raymond had promised to surrender to Shu Linrui, after all, he was someone he had just met, and when his powers were suddenly exhausted, he still felt a little unsure. If the other party has any intentions, without superpowers, I am a lamb to be slaughtered.
Seeing Raymond's hesitation, Shu Linrui was a little unhappy and said, "What's wrong? Don't you dare to try?"
"It's not that I don't dare."
"Then show me. You must understand that the empire will entrust you with important tasks in the future and will also hand over the army to you, so shouldn't you show your sincerity?"
"No, I am sincere. It's just that I think we can leave the city in the normal way, and Jiang Ze will never stop us."
"tell me the story."
"Please come here."
Raymond led Shu Linrui to a wooden box more than ten meters away. After opening it, he found Luo Erhu lying inside, covered with ice and snow.
"Is this Jiang Ze's sworn brother, Luo Erhu?" Shu Linrui also met Luo Erhu himself for the first time.
"Yes."
"Is he dead?"
"You can say that, but I suspect that he is just in a state of suspended animation. There was a woman named Chen Ling before, and she was suspended in death." Raymond explained.
"Do you want to trade Luo Erhu for Jiang Ze to let us out of the city safely?"
"That's right."
"Sorry, I have to decline this offer."
"Why?" Raymond wondered.
"Because I don't want Lieguo to know that the queen of the Menes Empire has quietly come here. To put it bluntly, it's not the time to have a grudge against Lieguo yet."
"is it so serious?"
"Yes, Jiang Ze won't just watch me take you away. I don't want the matter of leaving the city to be in a stalemate. The best way is for you to activate the chain space technique and teleport us outside the city."
"But didn't I say that? If all the walls of Yecheng have been repaired and the whole city is closed, then my space spell will not be effective."
"Then why don't you give it a try? Is it really difficult to give it a try?" Shu Linrui changed her previous relaxed and laughing style and stared at Raymond seriously.
Raymond was startled by Shu Linrui and didn't know how to answer.
Shu Linrui said solemnly again: "General Raymond, you must understand that the empire has the goal of unifying the world. Since you have decided to submit to us, you should obey my orders. Or, you simply can't trust me, and the so-called submission is just a verbal statement. explain?"
Raymond didn't expect that Shu Linrui, who had always been polite, would suddenly say something like this. It was obvious that she was determined to force Raymond to use the super long-range space technique.
For Raymond, it was like a gamble.
However, if you think about it carefully, this gamble seems inevitable.
If he wants to be reused by the empire, Raymond must indeed show something.
Feeling that there was no way out, Raymond finally made a decision: "Okay, I listen to you. I, Raymond, will hand over myself to the empire today."
After Raymond said that, he used all his powers and activated the ultra-long-distance space technique.
Whoosh, a space the size of a dog hole appeared.
Shu Linrui saw the hole and said helplessly: "Why is it so small?"
"The city wall should be almost repaired. There is still a small hole that has not been filled, so the birth space is only this big. But this size is enough for us to drill through one by one. Please tell your people to show up quickly. This little I can last up to three minutes in the hole.”
"They are nearby." Shu Linrui whistled after finishing speaking, and suddenly three black figures flashed over one by one. They did not wear any armor, and their clothes were a bit like ninjas. They should be good at speed and assassination.
The three of them looked at the small hole and then at Raymond, with a bit of disgust on their expressions.
"It's just such a hole. Should I drill it or not?"
The three people nodded and crawled through the small space holes one by one.
"General Raymond, you drill first and I last," Shu Linrui said.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll bring Luo Erhu over first."
"What are you doing with Luo Erhu? Aren't everyone already dead?"
"Luo Erhu is definitely not really dead. Jiang Ze must have the antidote."
"Then it's useless for us to take him with us, and your next focus is to deal with Yan Guo."
"What should I do with Luo Erhu? Just leave it here like this?"
"Kill him. It's useless to keep it. Just chop off his head." After saying this, Shu Linrui pulled out the short knife and pointed it at Luo Erhu's neck.
"I worked so hard to get Luo Erhu. Wouldn't it be a pity to kill him?"
"What's a pity? Are you going to attack Tianzhu in the future? Then keeping Luo Erhu will be a trouble in the future. Kill a hundred of them."
"Alas!" Raymond sighed angrily. After all, he had worked so hard to catch this person. He had managed to protect him until now. It would be a pity to kill him. However, what Shu Linrui said is actually reasonable. If Luo Erhu cannot be used by the empire, it is better to kill him to avoid future troubles.
But the strange thing is that Shu Linrui's short sword has been suspended in the air and has not been swung down for nearly twenty seconds.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Forget it, let's go." Shu Linrui suddenly put away the dagger and urged Raymond to enter the space hole.
"Leave without killing?"
"Yes, let's go quickly. Stop dawdling. We can only last three minutes. If we delay any longer, it will be too late." Shu Linrui shouted.
"I know, I know." Although Raymond was puzzled, he could only get through the space hole first.
After Raymond got through, Shu Linrui also got out. At this time, all five of them were already on a galloping road outside Yecheng.
Raymond waved his hand, and the space hole disappeared. The person suddenly became weak and collapsed toward the ground, but was helped by Shu Linrui's subordinates.
The subordinate took out a blue pill and stuffed it into Raymond's mouth.
The pill melted when it met the water and slipped into Raymond's belly.
Ten seconds later, Raymond's superpower quickly recovered.
At this time, Raymond had given up his doubts, and he had completely surrendered to Shu Linrui for this valuable blue pill.
"Let's go, let's go to Salo City next."
"Why go there?"
"Stop talking nonsense and just follow along."
After Shu Linrui finished speaking, one of his subordinates took out a suitcase and pressed a button. The suitcase immediately began to transform and turned into a car that could seat five people.
"What is this? So awesome?" Raymond was shocked.
"Are you surprised by this? Then you will be even more surprised in the future. See the empire's high technology." Shu Linrui said with a proud smile.
Afterwards, Raymond sat in the passenger seat, and the three followers sat in the back seat. Shu Linrui drove the car himself and headed towards Salo City.
"What are we going to Salo City for?" Raymond couldn't help but ask again.
"Oh, you have so many questions. Wouldn't you know it when you go?"
"Okay, don't ask about that then. As for Luo Erhu, you have to explain to me why you suddenly stopped killing him?"
"He was really unyielding. Let me tell you. When I was killing him, I saw a picture of Luo Erhu riding a war horse, covered in blood, fighting against the dark zombies."
"Luo Erhu is fighting with the dark zombies? What's going on?" Raymond's jaw almost dropped in shock.
"How do I know what's going on? Anyway, I saw this scene, so I thought for about ten seconds. Instead of killing him now, it's better to follow the prophecy. Anyway, our empire will eventually settle accounts with the ghosts and gods. If Luo Erhu kills the dark zombies , then they are not our enemies."
