Law of the Devil

Muse, I saw her in Yajin City, and I saw her from a distance. She was wearing armor and uniform, and there were some other soldiers around her... But it looks like those people are weird. I sent someone to inquire about it. It seems to be an army mobilizing supplies from the central front...

Little Charlie said it with a smile, and Du Wei's face immediately became serious.

Du Wei immediately sent someone to write a letter, and hurriedly sent someone to the Spike Army Camp in the middle of the country.

But after a while, he called the guard elder Yan again:

Fatty guy, I'm worried that he won't follow the order, you should go to this matter yourself! Bring him back to me! It's just nonsense!!

The northern front of the empire, south of the central fortress.

It is not far from the Imperial Theater Air Force Base. This barracks alone is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

And in this barracks, although there are not so many troops, at the gate of the barracks, early in the morning, soldiers wearing armors coming and going are already busy back and forth.

A team of carriages drove into the barracks after presenting the documents. The exposed carriages behind the carriages were loaded with bags of grain, dried meat, weapons and armor, and bundles of heavy spine armor-piercing arrows.

Inside the barracks, a military flag embroidered with a strange pattern was hung on a flagpole. The strange pattern seemed to be the sharp fangs of some kind of wild beast.

On the school field in the barracks, there is no neat drill queue like other regular troops of the empire. Instead, some soldiers who trained early in the morning formed one after another seemingly loose queues, which actually implied some kind of regular queue, formed on the playground. Formed small teams one by one, taking advantage of the terrain on the school field: high and low. Broken ground, obstacles, etc., perform some strange tactical exercises.

Some of those soldiers didn't even wear armor, but wore some weird clothes with strong camouflage effects, such as uniforms covered with branches and leaves, or helmets tied with straw, and some even painted their faces Black and green oil paint.

On the edge of the school field, there were some soldiers who took off their shirts. With bare sticks, they were wrestling with each other, and many people around watched and shouted loudly.

It doesn't look like a regular army of the Empire here - they really aren't.

Here is the only officially recruited and legally recognized mercenary army in the empire - Spike Army - under the leadership of Longbottom, it has made remarkable achievements. The Spike Army won the first airborne battle behind enemy lines.

Longbottom, this fat man led a team of cavalry to ride around the camp a few times in the morning. At this moment, his whole body was already active, his head was hot with sweat, he took off his armor and only put on his uniform. He strode across the camp. On the way, I nodded and greeted those rough men, Emre. You lost in the wrestling last night. Be careful to break your leg! Carl, you bastard, you have not been allowed to drink since the morning! Rocky, you Why are your eyes so red, could it be that you couldn't sleep because you missed girls last night?

Although these words are vulgar, they are the most common language among soldiers in this kind of place.

Obviously, Longbottom has won the support of the mercenaries in the Spike Army, and everyone treats him with respect and affection.

The fat man strode past the barracks one by one. When he came to his big tent, he kicked away the wooden boards and strode in.

This barracks was next to Longbottom's own barracks. Walking in, he saw armor and weapons scattered on the ground, and there was a faint smell of wine in the air.

The fat man shrugged his nose. Some frown.

There was only one bed in the barracks. On the bed, a person was tightly wrapped in a blanket, curled up into a ball, and was sleeping soundly. Probably because he was too tired, and he snored intermittently.

The fat man approached the bed and looked down at the person on the bed.

Muse, this tomboy, is wrapped in a blanket—but judging from her bare shoulders, this girl didn't take off her clothes when she slept, but slept with her clothes on. At this moment, she was lying on her side, holding her tightly in her arms A skin bag containing wine, because the sleep was too sweet, the small mouth was slightly opened, and there was even a trace of saliva left on the corner of the mouth and on the pillow.

Humph, she's such a cute girl, but she looks like a fool when she sleeps. God, she's still snoring and drooling.

The fat man raised his eyebrows, without reaching out, he raised his foot, through the blanket, lightly kicked Muse's ass, and yelled, Hey, tomboy, wake up!

no response……

Hey! Wake up!

Snoo... Snoo...

The fat man got angry, turned around and went to the door, strode back with a bucket of water, stood in front of Muse's bed, took out a whistle from his pocket, and blew it hard...

Muse, who was asleep, was opening her mouth, as if she was still dreaming, when suddenly she heard a sharp whistle! The sharp and ear-piercing voice woke her up suddenly!

Then I heard the fat man's hateful roar...

Emergency assembly? ?

With a huff, Muse immediately bounced off the bed like a conditioned reflex, and subconsciously reached out to search for the boots left by the bed. But as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the fat man's hateful smiling face beside the bed, and she hadn't called out yet...

Crash!

A bucket of cold water was poured down on the head, and Muse immediately screamed like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, and jumped up!

Bastard! Fatty! What are you doing! Are you crazy!!

Muse finally woke up, staring at the fat man with staring eyes. This nasty fat man actually had a malicious smile on his face, holding a bucket in his hand, looking at him with a smile.

Are you awake? Then wake me up quickly! You are simply a little pig who likes to sleep late...you are still a noble pig.

Muse became angry, and she immediately screamed: You fat man! Who allowed you to come into my room! After speaking, she subconsciously grabbed the blanket.

The fat man sighed, and cast a disdainful glance at the girl: What are you doing? Anyway, you didn't take off your clothes... Besides, at your age, it's too young to be my daughter. Listen carefully, this is a military camp! Now the sun Are you still hiding under the covers after drying your ass?

Muse looked at the rogue fat man helplessly, and fell down again. He fell on the bed and groaned: Please, fat man... I'm taking a day off today! Damn! I'm taking a day off today! I just came back from the Eastern Front yesterday! I rode back and forth for six days! I brought you back a full twenty-six Car supplies! Now I'm on vacation! Do you understand the vacation!!.

Longbottom didn't appear to be conscious at all, and still had a smirk on his face: Of course I understand, I personally approved the holiday. But...

He suddenly reached out and picked up the wine bag on the bed, shook it twice: It's empty...you can really drink, it seems that your drinking capacity has increased now. But, you bastard, have you forgotten my order? What! Those who are on vacation are allowed to move freely in the camp. But...you are not allowed to drink in the barracks!!

As he said that, the fat man stared at Muse with a smile as if he had grasped something.

But Muse was not afraid at all, glanced at the fat man, and pushed the fat man back with one sentence: Damn fat man, I stole this bag of wine from your room.

Well……

He quickly shook the wine bag and immediately screamed, Bastard! This is my treasure! You actually drank it up!!!

Muse shook her head. Only then did he lift up the blanket, climbed to the side of the bed, felt sleepy, and touched the ground for a while: Fatty, where did you kick my boots?

On your feet. Longbottom pinched the empty wine bag angrily, Don't you take off your boots when you sleep?

Muse just jumped to the ground, stretched her waist, grabbed the armor and weapon indiscriminately and put them on her body. Only then did he turn around and glared at the fat man: Even if you are my officer, you can't just break into my room... Also, next time you wake me up, stop splashing water! Now I have to wash my face...

Sorry, there is no water to wash your face. The fat man pointed to the empty bucket: Your water has been used up.

After all, this is a military camp, and each soldier only has one bucket of water to use every day.

Muse looked at the empty bucket angrily, and said angrily, You!! Do you know that I haven't slept for three days in order to complete your task! I haven't washed my face for three days!! How dare you!! I'm a woman Children! Girls must be clean!!

The fat man hugged his arms. Looking at her with a smile, he said deliberately: Oh, are you a girl? I forgot that you are still a girl. Look at how you look now.

Yes, if you must describe the current appearance of Muse, there is only one simple and direct word: sloppy!

Very sloppy!

Her hair is messy. Even a little disheartened - running around for a few days to mobilize food and supplies. When she came back last night, she was extremely exhausted, and fell asleep after drinking. Didn't bother to wash up at all.

The clothes on his body were originally white, but now there are suspicious stains, yellow dust, and wine marks...

Looking at her appearance, who would have thought that she is the majestic Muse (Miss?) of the Liszt family, and she is also a nobleman with a cleanliness habit!

Since she ran away from home and came to the north, the desperate Muse had no choice but to run to the fat man, hid in this barracks, and served as an officer under the fat man-of course, there was no official position, because it was A mercenary army, except for the nominal leader Fatty and Hussein, no one else has a formal official position.

Every day, she trains with those mercenaries who are full of foul language, crawls and rolls, rides horses to practice in the field, and walks for two or three days, sleeps in the field, drinks stream water, eats dry food, and does not take a bath for several days.

After coming to the north, she has been hiding by Fatty's side, but...even she herself doesn't know what she is hiding.

Later, after Du Wei led his troops to the north and served as the head coach of the Eastern Front, Fatty once wanted to send her to the East, but this chick refused to die—maybe it was because Gabriel was in the East?

But it doesn't seem to be...

She continued to stay with Fatty.

As for Fatty, this mercenary is nominally assigned to the Central War Zone, but because they disobeyed orders before, they privately launched the airborne operation in the enemy's rear. Got an official designation Spike Army.

However, it made the top executives of the Storm Legion look down on this group of rabble. More and more dissatisfied! Even if the battle was successful, the senior management of the Storm Legion hated Fatty and this mercenary army more and more. In addition to the original term rabble, they added a term of disobedience to dispatch.

In addition, the Storm Legion in the central region has not achieved any good results, and the fat man's mercenaries have been rewarded, but it can't help but make people jealous.

As a result... Afterwards, when it came to supplies in the army, the Spike Army had to suffer some supercilious looks. When distributing supplies, they were often made things difficult by the Storm Legion, withholding, pressing, and delaying...

Fatty was already irritable, so he turned his back on the Storm Legion.

Fortunately, General Andre of the Air Force has a close relationship with the Tulip family. With his support, the Air Force supplies were often mobilized to help Fatty, but Fatty, who had had enough of the Storm Legion's white eyes, simply sent someone to contact Du Wei after Du Wei went north.

Du Wei naturally wanted to protect his own direct descendants, and since then. Fatty is a mercenary. Although they still remained in the central region, all the material attacks were transported from the eastern front.

Muse refused to go east and insisted on staying with the fat man, and the fat man didn't care. A few days ago, Muse personally led the team to Yajin City in the east to collect supplies for this month. Muse led the team back and forth for six days, which was really hard work.

Speaking of which, Fatty took good care of Muse. I lived in a barracks alone for her, and took good care of her on weekdays. Although there was a woman in the barracks - but anyway, these mercenaries are not regular soldiers, and the empire's mercenary industry is not without women (such as Ruolin in the past), so those mercenaries will not make a big fuss.

Okay. Looking at Muse's murderous eyes. The fat man waved his hand: It's kind of me to wake you up... You don't know what to do, you girl. Get up quickly, there is a good thing. If you go late and miss it, blame me for not taking care of you.

Muse had already put on the weapon, and wiped it casually from the bucket a few times, with the water on his palm, messed it up on his face, wiped his face vigorously, and stroked his hair: Okay, what a good thing!

We're about to set off. Fatty smiled strangely: I'll lead the team myself...we'll go around the fort, head west, and then...sneakily run behind those enemies to get a ticket! Hehe, it's grain harvesting now In this season, we can't be idle and make trouble for them.

Muse's eyes lit up immediately: It's really a good thing! Well, you have a conscience, don't forget to call me for such an interesting thing..

Just go! We'll be ready to go in a while.

When he reached the door, the fat man stopped suddenly, looked back at Muse, hesitated, and said, There is one more thing... Muse, you are here with me, this matter cannot be hidden from others. I think His Excellency the Duke will know sooner or later. ----Maybe he already knows by now. Maybe there will be a letter in the next few days, asking me to send you there...

Muse's eyes immediately became a little dazed, and he froze for a moment, then shook his head vigorously: I'm not going! Not anywhere! I don't want Du Wei's subordinates... I hate that guy the most.

The fat man rubbed his chin, and smiled a little weirdly: That's up to you... But, if the boss finds out, I'll hide for you secretly, I'm afraid I'll be beaten again.

Muse rolled her eyes: You are full of fat, it won't damage you.

After hesitating for a while, Muse put away her giggling expression, lowered her voice, and said with a sincere tone, Actually... I know you take good care of me... Thank you, Uncle Longbottom.

When the fat man heard it, his face suddenly seemed to have seen a ghost, his mouth seemed to be stuffed with an egg, and he stared at Muse with wide eyes: You! What did you call me! You actually called me uncle?! Oh my God! Muse made a face and smiled sweetly: Isn't it? You yourself said that my age is too young to be your daughter.

I'm not yet forty years old! the fat man said angrily. After finishing speaking, he stretched out his thick palm and slapped Muse's head hard: Don't call me that! Damn it. He said Although the expression was relaxed, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

Muse saw it, lowered her voice, and said softly: Fatty... I heard that you had a daughter before...

It's none of your business. The fat man got angry, and he was about to kick Muse, but Muse jumped away: Hurry up and lead your horse! Gather at the gate of the camp! If you are late, I will beat you Baton!

Muse stuck out her tongue and ran out quickly. When she walked past Fatty, she whispered, Thank you.

Seeing the girl bouncing and running away, Longbottom sighed, looking at the far away figure, there was a trace of genuine kindness and warmth in the two hundred and five's eyes.

I pinched my pocket... There was a letter in my pocket, which was written by Du Wei.

He lied to Muse just now... Du Wei didn't know sooner or later, but already knew! Already know the Muse is here.

This letter was sent to the ground last night. In the letter, Du Wei asked Fatty to send someone to send Muse to Yajin City immediately - if she refused, she would have to be tied up!

These are the original words of Du Wei in the letter.

But this time, the fat man made his own claim and disobeyed Du Wei's order -- anyway, it wasn't the first time he disobeyed an order.

Just because... At the beginning, when this poor tomboy came to join him alone, this little girl who used to have a strong face like a little hedgehog, when she came to me, The tiredness and frailty of his face, and the sadness in his eyes made the fat man feel pity.

These days, she is here by herself, eating meat with a bunch of rough men, drinking heavily, yelling loudly, seemingly happy, but... which girl would sleep in the room at night with a wine bag in her arms?

That mark on the pillow...is it really just saliva?

Or... tears?

****. The fat man rubbed his fleshy cheeks: These young bastards are really troublesome. When I was young, I loved when I wanted to love, and hated when I wanted to hate. Come here quickly? The girls you like, just grab them generously. Today's young people really want to save face and suffer!

With Du Wei's handwritten letter in his pocket, Lao Yan led a troop of cavalry all the way to the Spike Army's camp. It was already evening.

But he finally came one step too late. The people of the Spike Army told him that Lord Longbottom, the leader, had drawn a thousand people early this morning and went out to hunt. Hunting is a slang term for these mercenaries. In fact, they are taking people around to harass the enemy's rear.

Longbottom wasn't there, so Lao Yan inquired in the camp and told the Muse's appearance, and sure enough, many people recognized her. Only to learn that Longbottom took Muse away with him.

Lao Yan sighed... Sure enough, as the Duke thought, he asked himself to pick up people quickly, and it would be too late if it was too late.

This Longbottom disobeyed orders again. .
