Chapter 51 The Arrogant Physician
Chen Yaogang's own body shape problem is easy to attract attention, so he decided to separate from One-Eyed Kaila for a while to perform the task of marking the identity of the Countess.
One-eyed Kaira focuses on finding lively places, quickly increasing her influence to attract the attention of Lord William and the cultists. Langdon and his friends are responsible for using "thieves' skills" to finish and aftermath.
That's right, this simple, hasty and straightforward plan depends entirely on personal ability to support the scene.
Leaving from the secret door set up by Landon, Chen Yaogang and the two got out of the sewer and climbed into a dark alley full of debris.
The streets of Sostem are much more neat than those Roger watch. Chen Yaogang quietly jumped onto the roof and hid behind the chimney to look around. In that small trading square, people from major trade unions gathered together to block the pharmacy store and Sostem clinic.
A warrior with a scar on his face walked to the door, and Lord William's guard immediately set up a spear to block him: "The lord has an order. No one is allowed to interfere with the production of potions, and all violators will be thrown into prison. You mercenary union people, don't do their own reward tasks, why are you here to make trouble?"
The warrior made a gesture, and his accomplices immediately lined up in a row, half kneeling on the ground to raise a well-crafted armor-piercing crossbow: "Lord William relied on his financial resources to buy all the clinics and pharmacists in the city. My brothers fought bloody battles with monsters in the wild, but when they returned to the city, they could only rely on the simplest homemade herbs to heal their wounds. Do you think this is appropriate?"
The guard's eyes flashed with a secret monster and sneered: "Lord has spent so much money, and he should be treated like that. If you are not convinced, why didn't you bid with the lord?"
The Scar Warrior blackened his face and held his thick and hard arms and said, "Stop interrupting. I will remind you one last time. Now it is not only our War Bear Mercenary Group has used up the drug supply, but many of the unions' savings are about to be exhausted. If we did not get the supplies before tonight, we would refuse to fight and withdraw from Sostem."
With the ultimate statement of the Scar Warrior, people know that things have reached a point where they cannot be eased. If they do not seek legitimate interests at this time, what awaits them is the hard battle of running out of ammunition and food. When they are not in any supply, they will be unable to leave even if they want to!
"That's right, you selfish ghosts, and you don't participate in the battle, why should you occupy all your medical resources!"
"If you only care about yourself, then we will tear down the city gates and let monsters rush in directly, and let you bunch of waste deal with the demons by yourself!"
"What disease did the lord's wife have? She needs to give her the entire medicine and doctor to use? Are we not humans! Do we need to take medicine when we are injured!"
The guard waved his spear and poked the Scar Warrior's head, but was easily avoided by the other party: "Bold! You are just a group of lowly mercenaries, and you dare to challenge the lord and nobles! These people gathered to cause trouble, and they should be thrown into prison according to the rules and reflect on them! I order you to disband within 5 seconds, otherwise you will be regarded as enemies!"
Seeing the guards reacting like this, the mercenaries were instantly furious and drew out their weapons and started to fight back on the spot.
Many civilians saw this situation and volunteered to take up weapons and were involved in the battle. Some even took the opportunity to make a fuss to overthrow Lord William's rule and re-elect the lord to manage the town.
The crowd of people who were rushing to the crazy could not stop once they blindly followed. One-eyed Kaila quietly approached the extremely chaotic fight area in a hood and mask.
Looking at the mercenaries with bruised nose, swollen and bloody heads, Kaila had only helplessness and disgust.
She avoided the restless crowd and looked to the other end of the small square. In front of the door of the "Funnel Tavern", she saw another group of familiar faces wearing shirtless turbans and tattooed with anchor tattoos.
One-eyed Kaira knew that if she had taken off her disguise here now, within a few minutes the sharp-eyed bastards would find her appearing in Sostem and then make a lot of noise.
"Didn't that savage really mean it? Why did you have to wait for instructions here? You always feel like you know me very well. You are designing me every move, otherwise why did he expose me to the vision of those people?"
One-eyed Kaira fiddled with the arm crossbow and potion under her black robe. She sincerely hoped that this matter could be resolved as soon as possible, so that the nuns could recover the monastery as soon as possible, and let her return to the peaceful life she had once washed her hands. But a certain desire also surged in Kaira's heart: the meteors came, the invasion of demons, and this turbulent era of turbulent clouds is actually the best time to start a new life.
As long as you can kill demons and establish military achievements, no one cares what you did before. As long as you can re-establish an identity and show the superficial justice and kindness to others, the heavy guilt and psychological burdens of the past can be thrown away, and she no longer has to be troubled by the past.
"It's not easy to start over..."
One-eyed Kaila was in place at the target location and looked forward. Chen Yaogang had already jumped to the bell tower. She was no longer surprised by any behavior of this barbarian recently, because through a series of conversations and cooperation, she found that Chen Yaogang's thoughts were not on the same line as others.
"Luckily they didn't recognize me, so let's focus on the task in front of me." One-eyed Kaila stared at the battlefield. Chen Yaogang hid behind the bell tower and gestured to her, then took out a pack of beans soaked in ink, lit a small amount of leads, and flew towards the top of the square.
There was a loud explosion in the sky, and the mercenaries in the melee did not care about the little movement, but the subsequent rain of ink and beans poured them out of recognition.
One-eyed Kaila stared at everything in front of her, and soon she discovered a magical scene: many mercenaries were hit by beans, and black spots were everywhere on their faces and bodies, but some people were clearly participating in the melee, but they perfectly avoided all beans.
The first pack of ink beans caused a small commotion and verbal war, but the mercenaries thought it was sent by the lord and did not care too much about it.
But the subsequent rain of ink beans made many people angry: I don’t know who has been sprinkling those weird things that are not painful and itchy. Is it possible for a few beans to solve the problem if they want to drive away the mercenaries in the demonstration?
One-eyed Kaira looked carefully, and she quietly used her magic to mark all those who were not hit by beans.
As the battle became more and more chaotic, the shouts of slashing became louder and louder, and the closed door of the potion shop was finally kicked open from the inside out. Everyone was alarmed by the loud noise and subconsciously stopped and looked at the other end. They saw a seven-foot man wearing a strong and stalwart and not inferior to Chen Yaogang, walking out of it.
The big man grabbed the nearby mercenaries and threw them to the ground like a toy. He took off the axe behind him and swept across the three demonstrators holding the shield to knock out all the three men. Looking at the shield that fell into the crowd, Chen Yaogang hid in the dark side of the bell tower. Although he could not see the front, he could guess who the man was.
"Commander Bruce, this group of mercenaries is causing trouble! They injured our people and threatened..."
"Shut up, do you think I can't see it?" Bruce had red eyes and slapped the guard away with a slap. He raised a big axe and rushed into the square. With just a few charges and slashes, the demonstration formation organized by the mercenaries easily dispersed.
Commander Bruce in front of her was not like a barbarian, but rather like an imperial man with an extremely large body. One-eyed Kaira was originally thinking about who this was, but when she received Chen Yaogang's gesture, she immediately took the opportunity to get into the crowd.
With one blow, all the mercenaries were swept away. Commander Bruce smashed the ground with a big axe and stood in front of a group of mercenaries and said, "Baby, don't mess around anymore. Your demonstration is meaningless. Lord William summoned all the doctors to study the power of meteors. If our plan is successful, we will soon be able to rule the entire world. At a critical moment, a small sacrifice is necessary. Why can't you bear it?"
The Scar Warrior, who led the lead, stepped forward to argue with Commander Bruce, but only Chen Yaogang knew that Commander Bruce was actually just an evil spirit who had resurrected from the dead, and he was not in the mood to chat with anyone now.
Before Scar Warrior could speak, Commander Bruce raised his axe and pushed it out with one blow. Several companions were furious and stepped forward to fight back, and soon got the same result.
Commander Bruce sneered, and in his scarlet eyes, there was only bloodthirsty killing and the desire for complete rebirth. As for those mercenaries... in the face of absolute power suppression, the thin armor was no different from the iron sheet: "Have you made enough? If not enough, I can practice with you, but I will hold back again next..."
"Where did this damn bastard come out? He is even more terrifying than a savage!"
"What's wrong, what happened to Lord William? Why is he employed people we've never heard of?"
"These people are really crazy! There are so many monsters outside, and they refuse to kill them themselves, but instead attack those of us who are willing to help!"
"What a deep wound, this bastard is really ruthless. If there is no healing medicine, the guy from the War Bear Mercenary Group will probably be finished..."
The mercenaries looked at each other and discussed each other, subconsciously lost confidence, and slowly dragged the wounded to the outside of the square. Chen Yaogang saw it and probably calculated their strength.
These mercenaries are all mortals. In the face of the blessing of magic and equipment, the guard who hit the Bloody Eagle was blocking the chariot with a mantis arm. He could still move after taking a heavy blow, and his physical fitness was already quite good. As for those people, there were obviously cultists who were involved, and they seemed to be affected by the blessing of luck.
"The Bloody Earl is not here, she sent Bruce to guard the largest pharmacy shops and clinics, probably making preservatives to stockpile those corpses."
"When the countess' body was burned by fire, she should not have been completely resurrected yet. It may have just occupied the body of a certain woman. During the time when I had not arrived in Sostem, she may have retrieved her ashes and cursed blood. Now she has not taken over Sostem, which means she is planning a complete resurrection..."
Chen Yaogang looked to the center of the square. On the messy field, all the mercenaries began to retreat under deterrence. Only Kaila walked forward through the crowd and bent down to look at the Scar Warrior.
Bruce narrowed his scarlet eyes. Judging from his body shape and gait, he was sure that 70% of the guy in black robe might be a woman. But for some reason, when he wanted to use the power of curses to control the other party, the sirens' singing faintly sounded in his mind, which made him feel numb and almost couldn't control the body he had taken.
No, weren’t the Knights Templar and the only saint in the church all transferred away by Lord William’s fake orders? After the hostess woke up, she gradually manipulated Lord William and deceived all the threats from Sostemme. Where did these people emerge?
If someone could really interfere with the hostess' plan, if the hostess' plan was accidentally exposed... Bruce put away his arrogant expression: "Who are you?"
"A doctor is specialized in treating disobedience." One-eyed Kaira said concisely, pinching the scar warrior like a fish, pinched the bottle and poured it into his mouth.
Scar Warrior had never seen such an irritable doctor before he could speak, and before he could speak, he felt a stream of extremely nauseous liquid pouring into his body. Scar Warrior's face turned red and white. He felt that the liquid disappeared instantly after drinking it, and he couldn't cough out or vomit. A fire suddenly rose in his abdomen, which made him feel that his lips were about to fall off.
Under the gaze of many mercenaries, the Scar Warrior was as if he was burned by poison and rolled around in a mess, but the wounds quickly scabbed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When the Scar Warrior finally survived this powerful medicine and recovered from sweating, he was surprised to find that most of the wounds on his body had healed: "This... what is this? Ordinary healing medicines will definitely not have such regeneration effect..."
One-eyed Kaila completely ignored the other party's gratitude, recalled the lines Chen Yaogang taught her, and directly sprayed according to the current occasion: "You don't need to know what this is, you just need to know that I am a very expensive doctor, that's enough!"
"I came to Sostem just to make money. If you can afford that price, I can serve you. If you can't afford it... Sorry, I don't have time to waste time with you. I don't care about anyone's life or death, I only care about gold coins!"
"The medicine I just gave you is just my self-introduction. Don't try to challenge my bottom line. I can save you from the edge of death and regenerate you with new flesh and blood, and kick you back into the arms of the god of death and turn you into a pile of bones."
"I don't know much about Sostem City. I just heard of the reward and walked over. But you all looked very poor and actually quarreled over a few bottles of potions. To be honest, I was really a little disappointed. I was thinking about whether to leave this broken place. Before I was completely impatient, there might be a while before you are interested in my medical skills, you can come to the sewer of Duniao Street to find me..."
"Hmph, I just watched here for a while and got a rough idea of the situation... I hope your Lord William is not a poor man."
In the civil strife in Sostem, the mercenaries demonstrated and led the counterattack. The entire square was in a mess, but a strange black-robed doctor emerged.
Moreover, the doctor was extremely arrogant. Not only did he throw Commander Bruce's face in public, but he also sprayed the entire Sostem with an unpredictable tone.
Where is Sostem City? The most prosperous and richest large city in the entire western border. When other lords were still living in wooden houses, Sostem had already built luxurious houses and noble houses for the whole city.
Especially when he saw Commander Bruce who was still very majestic just now, facing the doctor, many mercenaries couldn't help but wonder: "What is the source of this doctor? Is so arrogant?"
One-eyed Kaila didn't talk to anyone. Anyway, the purpose of attracting the attention was achieved. She lowered her hood and quickly left the small square. As long as Chen Yaogang's plan could be realized normally, it would be much easier to trick the enemy into his own territory and break them one by one, it would be much easier than breaking into the heavily guarded castle.
