Lord of War

Vol 3 Chapter 464: .Task

  The night of the floating island is more gloomy and cold than the land boundary.

   is not like the dry-cold or wet-cold that Sean spent in the southern and northern continents before, but more like the cold directly exposed to the ice and snow. This kind of cold temperature keeps the temperature of the human body in a low temperature state. Even the residents of floating islands would choose to wear thicker clothes when they go out at night. If they are sleeping in the wild, they usually light a bonfire, hold a magic power hand stove, etc., and then sleep with their clothes.

  At this time, Sean was slightly unhappy.

  Because he didn’t know that he would spend the night on the floating island, and of course he didn’t know that the night on the floating island would be so cold. Of course, he has not prepared dinner or other foods such as dry food that can be eaten.

  Levy and Alisha still did not wake up, which made Shaun worry about their situation.

  Fortunately, this kind of situation that makes Sean feel depressed and troublesome, at least he is not alone.

  Before Xiao En, twelve students from the Floating Saint Academy were tied. For these people, Sean didn't want to pay much attention to them, but these people were too annoying, so Sean had to tie them all up-the things that tied them were the tools that these students carried. This tool has special effects that can seal off anger and perception, and is one of the standard equipment for members of the floating island responsible for public security patrols.

  On the floating island, as long as you are not judged to be incompetent, you will basically receive both martial arts and magic training from an early age, but its achievements will be limited by personal talents and talents. Therefore, basically people with a certain level of strength can be seen everywhere on the floating island. Therefore, the patrol in charge of the floating island’s public order naturally needs to be equipped with some special props. Otherwise, they will definitely not be able to win some of the strengths not yet due to age. Aging and degrading old guy.

  After all, in actual combat experience, newcomers are never as good as old people.

  It’s just that these special devices can seal off vindictiveness and perception. It only works against the strong below the sanctuary.

  A sanctuary powerhouse like Iger cannot play a role.

  But Sean didn’t care anymore. He directly repaired the noisy Iger, and used him as an adult seat cushion and sat on him. Guaranteed that this guy could not escape. And to ensure quietness. Sean also stuffed the mouths of these people to make sure they couldn't speak.

"I'm kind." Sean stretched out his hand and patted Iger sitting under him. "Look, I haven't killed you yet.... I originally asked you to talk to me, but you guys. The guy just refused. Alas, it turned out to be what it is now, so why do you bother?"

  Respond to Sean’s. There was only a whining sound.

   "You said you were going out. You don't have any dry food on your body. I don't know what you want to do." Sean took a branch and stirred the bonfire in front of him to make the fire burn more vigorously.

  This bonfire was lit by the firewood that Xiao En asked several students to collect nearby. He was not afraid of these people running away. Sean could see that Iger had a high status in their minds. People like this were sentimental and righteous to speak well, and stupid to speak badly. With their strength, they would not be Sean's opponent at all. Falling on his hands won't be able to turn the wind and waves at all, so the right way is to do it. It should have chosen to run away while leaving Sean's sight, or to confide in the news.

  But these guys didn't do that. Instead, they were like puppets, obediently listening to Sean's orders.

  It’s just that Sean thought that if followers like William or Cecilia and Alfred fell into the hands of the enemy, he would definitely do the same. So naturally there is no stand to laugh at these guys, after all, no one is born more noble than anyone, and no one is necessarily stupid than anyone.

  It's just that these students who came from the Floating Saint Academy are pitiful.

  Iger wanted to speak against Sean, but he was helplessly stuffed with a piece of rag that he didn't know where he got, so he could only stare at Sean in resentment. He didn't expect that he would actually become a prisoner one day. What's even more helpless is that he and several other teams belong to the nature of the vanguard, and each is responsible for the exploration and patrol of an area, so this means that they will not have any support forces.

  At least until tomorrow, no one will know that their team has had an accident.

"Tell me, what happened here." Shaun was probably bored, so he reached out and tore off the rag from Iger's mouth and said softly, "Levy told me something about the floating island. So I know the situation right now is unusual."

"you this……"

   Without waiting for Iger to say something, Sean stuffed the rag into his mouth again: "If you want to be noisy, then don't blame me for gagging your mouth again."

   "Woo..."

   "Oh, sorry." Sean stretched out his hand and pulled out the rag again, "Go ahead."

  Iger looked at Sean and opened his mouth. However, he may have been frightened by Sean's power, so I finally did not choose to continue to fight Sean. This makes Sean a little dissatisfied. Why are the guys on the floating island so realistic and sober? According to his understanding of the "normal powerhouses" in this world, if these guys are suppressed by a person of the same realm, the first reaction is definitely Unbelievable, and then they refused to admit defeat, even if they were defeated, they would definitely continue to struggle and resist.

  Iger's performance is nothing like the "normally strong" that Shaun understood.

   "Because of a rebellion," Iger said.

   "Rebellion?" Sean was a little surprised, "What's the matter?...The scope of your floating library doesn't seem to be very large, right? Someone is involved in a rebellion?"

  The floating library is composed of twelve large land blocks and 36 small land blocks.

  The area of ​​twelve large land blocks is hard to say. The largest block is even as large as the current Void Duchy, and the smallest block has the scale of a marquis. And the thirty-six small land blocks are basically the same in area: equivalent to a standard baronian collar.

  Such an area of ​​land, and the front and back are still high in the sky, unlike the territories of the land boundary, which can escape to other noble territories, so the carpet search has become a feasible policy. According to Sean's experience in managing Pandaling, it only needs to invest about a thousand people. Carpet-style exploration of the entire small land block can be achieved.

  "Are you from the land boundary?" Iger did not answer Sean's question, but instead asked.

   "Yes." Sean did not deny it, after all, this kind of thing is meaningless.

   "Our rebellion here is different from the rebellion in your realm." Iger said, but his tone seemed a little helpless. "The lowest lands. These are places where people who violated the laws of the floating island were exiled. They need to do hard work here.... But not everyone will feel guilty, they will only resent the floating island. Everything in the sky island, so from time to time some people will get up and make trouble."

   "Oh." Shaun raised his eyebrows, and his brain started to work quickly.

  The incident of encountering insurgents just after entering the floating island, in Sean’s view, this is definitely not accidental. Although in the gaming era, I have never heard of anyone logging on to the floating island. However, the official information on the floating island proves that this place is more than just background information. Relevant tasks can definitely be obtained here, and it is even possible that there are "duplicates".

  Now, judging by the information that Sean obtained through Levi and Alissa, the existence of the black and white holy land is probably the so-called "copy".

  So the incident of encountering insurgents by chance at this moment is a "task"?

  The exploration of unknown areas is something that every player is very passionate about.

  Sean is no exception.

  As for the boundaries of the earth, Sean has far exceeded this era for many years. At least the changes and major historical events in the next ten years are under Sean's control. But for the floating island. Sean is truly in an unknown state.

  Plus, it’s been a long time since Sean had an activity similar to a dungeon, which made Sean really itchy.

  Of course, there is one more important thing.

  The previous trip to the Northern Continent, especially the final battle of fate, put too much pressure on Sean. Perhaps he never showed it, and never mentioned it to anyone, but the shock that the world-class battle with the most powerful forces brought to Sean is absolutely indescribable. In that battle, he deeply felt his own weakness and powerlessness. Even though he was already a great prince and even possessed the strength to influence local wars, he was still insignificant in the battle of the top-level power structure. Existence, let alone becoming a chess player, it is impossible to even control the situation.

  Shaun doesn’t think that he came to this world just to be a chess piece.

   "Let's talk about it, I want to know what's going on." Sean said in a deep voice. He tried to suppress a certain desire in his heart, and spoke in a calm tone as much as possible.

  Iger took a deep look at Sean again. He originally relied on perception to step into the sanctuary realm, so he naturally had a very subtle feeling about the change in Sean's mentality at this time. On the floating island, Iger may not be the most popular person, but he can be regarded as one of the most sensitive people on the floating island, because almost no one can fool him.

"We don't know the exact number of rebels." After a long silence, Iger finally chose to speak. "But the scale of this rebellion is the largest in the history of floating island. A total of more than 20 small land parcels of criminals participated in it, and the estimated scale is likely to be close to 10,000."

  "Ten thousand people?" Xiao En was taken aback for a moment. The number that Iger said from Iger's mouth seemed a little beyond Sean's estimate.

  The scale of 10,000 people, even in the boundary, is already a large-scale turmoil.

  Looking at the chaotic public order before Pandaling, the size of the bandit groups was only two or three thousand people. In the later period, after Pandaling and several surrounding territories were occupied by Sean, the bandits and robbers that occasionally appeared were only in the scale of hundreds, never thousands. So the scale of 10,000 people is enough to destroy all the gathering points below the city level. If these people are allowed to take down a military facility such as a fortress, the destructive power will be even more terrifying.

  And all this is still based on the level of ordinary people.

Judging from the contact with Iger and others, as well as the situation that Levi and Alyssa once said, the strength of these ten thousand people is probably not too low, and they are obviously from the Floating Saint Academy or Babylon. People from the Tongtian Magic Tower, which means that these people are not only not low in strength, but also not weak in tactical awareness.

   "Even if it is a reconnaissance team, only 13 people are not big, right?" Xiao En said.

"We were close to a hundred people." Iger's tone suddenly became a little sad. "However, there have been several encounters in these days, and a group of people have been arrested. In addition... we have also lost a lot. Manpower. We don’t know where these guys got their weapons."

   "That's it." Sean suddenly understood why he was treated as an enemy in the first place.

  The criminals who were originally exiled in these places will certainly not have weapons. And because of the special habits of the floating island, it is said that it was exiled, but it was actually a little harder than the average person-in the land boundary, its status is probably equivalent to a slave. It's just that the slaves in the realm do not have human rights, and those who are exiled to work can still enjoy the treatment of normal people, that is, they have to work early and return late every day.

  The most important point is that no one will guard these criminals-on the floating island, everything is conscious. Of course, at the end of the month, if the resources and materials agreed upon at the time of exile cannot be handed over, then there will definitely be penalties.

  But now, these mutineers don't know where they got their weapons, so they become dangerous.

And Sean, a person who shouldn’t have been here, suddenly appeared. Not only did he have weapons in his hand, but he also had Levi and Eliza who were in a coma. If that’s not suspicious, then probably No one really can be called suspicious. Even Sean himself believed that Iger would be totally irresponsible if he didn't take him under this situation.

   But thinking about it, Sean is not such an honest person.

  Therefore, there is also something to teach Iger and others to be human.

   "I probably understand." Xiao En nodded slightly. He can basically confirm that this insurgent incident is probably a triggered mission.

  As for the scale of 10,000 people, this is probably a sequelae in the game-if a player sets foot on a floating island and triggers this task, then the first reaction must be to remove soldiers from the guild. But now, in this world, Sean can be regarded as solitary, but the difficulty of the task has not been reduced because of this, so this is a bit difficult. (To be continued~^~)
