Chapter 466 Sure Enough, the Top People Are All Excellent Actors!
After entering the city, the soldiers who were in charge of leading them found a few people to set up a tent for the two of them again. Pu Yunchuan found that these people were indeed very enthusiastic about the newcomers from outside, as if they met fellow villagers at the construction site.
The tent area is very crowded and densely packed. At a glance, there may be tens of thousands of tents. However, Pu Yunchuan noticed that the soldiers living here showed some signs of mutation.
Just after the two settled down at night, the soldiers who led the way in the morning brought them in some food and hot water. Their attitudes were obviously quite different from those of the normal residents who looked at them from a distance along the way.
After the soldiers left, Pu Yunchuan frowned and said, "What's the situation?"
Isabel squinted her eyes, took a closer look at the multigrain cake in the basin, and took a sniff in her nose
Pu Yunchuan picked it up and took a bite, then nodded, "It's delicious, although it looks ugly, but it's not bad, and it tastes better than the multigrain cakes we sell there."
"Toxic," Isabel said softly.
"Uh..." Pu Yunchuan's body froze when he heard the words, and then he quickly pouted several times: "Didn't you say it earlier?"
Isabel: "Heavy metal poisons are very light, and eating a little once in a while will not have much impact on the body"
Pu Yunchuan: ""
"That lazy guy, I'll just say why he's so enthusiastic and courteous for nothing, it's really either rape or robbery," Pu Yunchuan said suddenly.
"It shouldn't be the soldier who poisoned it." Isabel shook her head: "This kind of thing looks like it was transferred by a professional alchemist. When I passed by just now, I saw many soldiers eating this. If I guessed correctly, the poison should be against these soldiers"
"Aiming at soldiers? Why?" Pu Yunchuan asked in a daze.
"Of course it's because of fear." Isabel smiled and said, "We're pretty lucky. If we come a few days later, I'm afraid we won't be able to encounter such a good thing."
"Is that so?" Pu Yunchuan was stunned for a moment, completely bewildered in his heart, and thought to himself: What the hell is she talking about? Why is it a good thing to be poisoned? Who is afraid? Why do I feel like I can't keep up? Could this be the difference between the Marshal and the programmer?
Um no way! can't let her see
Thinking of this, Pu Yunchuan nodded with a serious face: "I think so too""
"My lord, two more people are here today." In the mansion of the city lord, the political secretary reported today's new movements to the city lord who was calculating the house with the finance minister.
"There are still survivors at this time?" The city lord was a little surprised. Now almost all the seven cities in the northwest have been destroyed. The city of Luxi, which has resisted the longest, has been breached two months ago. The refugees who were able to escape at that time had already come Well, after all the environment outside, it is obviously exaggerated to say that someone can survive outside for two months
"Have you checked it? Who is it?" the city lord asked solemnly.
"I don't know, I'm wearing a cloak, and when I entered the city, I was received into the isolation area by those mutants"
"Pay attention to your rhetoric Tchaikov!" The city lord interrupted the other party seriously: "Those are not mutants, but our compatriots, compatriots who are dedicated to guarding the city even now, and the fourth district is also a temporary residential area , not a quarantine area, if I hear you say something like this again, you won’t come to work here!”
The secretary's face changed when he heard the words, and he quickly bowed his head to apologize
"Then how will the supplies be distributed later?" The Minister of Finance at the side asked cautiously.
The lord of the city, Mike, knocked on the table and said in a low voice: "The supplies of the soldiers outside cannot be reduced. They are the barrier of Gondolin today. They must resist the most dangerous mutant creatures. They cannot be thinned, otherwise the morale will be lowered. First, the supplies of the residents Minus a fifth"
"But this is not enough," the Minister of Finance frowned.
"Our soldiers in the inner ring and the guards of the city lord's mansion have shrunk by a third," Mike continued.
"This..." The Minister of Finance was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Not too good, is it?"
"There's no other way," Mike sighed, "For the sake of the overall situation, I can only wrong them a bit. As for the situation, I will summon them to explain the situation in person. I believe they will understand and you just do it."
The Minister of Finance nodded when he heard the words, and a complicated look appeared on his face, while the secretary who had spoken disrespectfully to the surrounding soldiers just now lowered his head, with an inexplicable gleam in his eyes."
"The city lord really said that?" An hour later, in a dark basement, several mutated generals sat in front of a brazier, looking at the person who reported the news in surprise.
And the person who reported the news was actually the secretary and finance minister of the city lord's mansion.
"I didn't expect that Mike would do this either." The Minister of Finance sighed slightly.
Several generals looked at each other immediately when they heard the words, one of them looked very tall, with thick black hair growing all over his body, like a savage general, he said in a low voice, "Then what shall we say now?"
"Let's take a look first." In the middle, the middle-aged general with white scales all over his body sighed and said, "We gathered mutant soldiers just to protect ourselves. It would be best if we can live in peace. After all, we don’t want our hands to be filled with the blood of our compatriots.”
"But those people no longer regard us as compatriots!" The general on the far left, covered with black scales, said in a gloomy tone.
"Okay, that's it for today!!" General Bailin glared at the other party, stopping him from provoking everyone's anger.
The black-scaled general's face sank slightly, but he didn't continue to speak in the end. The white-scaled general's name was Wesker. He was a former lieutenant general with the strength of the peak silver. He, the total number of people here may not be enough to fight him, and he has a high prestige in the army. Many people trust him. Even if I don't like his conservative approach, I can't openly oppose it.
"I'll trouble you to make a trip," General Bailin said to the Minister of Finance gently.
The Minister of Finance nodded, but didn't say much. Although the other party tried to keep his tone as gentle as possible, he still felt oppressed like facing a ferocious beast. It has to be said that there are reasons why the residents dislike these mutants. If his grandson hadn't been injured and mutated, he wouldn't have chosen to defect to the mutated forces
And he was slightly relieved to hear that the other party didn't plan to use bloody means. If possible, he didn't want to see this worst situation either! "
At the same time, what few people expected was that in the dark basement of the city lord's mansion, a cruel incident that was extremely inconsistent with what the city lord said was happening!
I saw that the dark basement had been converted into a temporary secret laboratory at some point, and the laboratory was filled with various human organs, and there were many mutilated corpses of soldiers.
You can even see that many dismembered soldiers are still twitching, with extremely resentful expressions on their faces, and they are still alive
"What's the result of the inspection? Mr. Marin!" The city lord Mike came to the basement immediately after sending off the finance minister. He looked at the amputee soldiers with a cold expression, without any fluctuations. Obviously, he was not impressed by the cruel scenes around him. He knew it. It's hard to imagine that ten minutes ago, he was still fighting for the interests of the peripheral soldiers with righteous words.
If Pu Yunchuan was here, he would definitely sigh: Sure enough, the top people are all excellent actors
