Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

The taboo sisters are all homebodies. They usually stay in their own rooms and are rarely seen in the living room. Obviously, there is no miracle formation in this duplex building.

Chu Yan greeted and quickly gathered his companions together.

No one was in the mood for a serious meeting. After gathering in the living room, everyone sat in all sorts of unsteady positions.

"I just went to see that green-haired guy who works as a salesman in the guild hall. He said he knows a way to cross the imperial blockade and go deeper into the city.

What is everyone’s opinion?”

After Chu Yan asked, everyone in the living room remained silent.

"What's wrong? No one has any opinions?"

Xia Nuoya was one of the people who sat in a more dignified manner. Seeing that no one spoke, she spoke up:

"Even if you want our opinions, we are all here on standby, ready to be dispatched at any time, right? Chu Yan, you can make the decision."

Even the taciturn officer sister Omega nodded in agreement with Shanoya's words.

Everyone here follows him. Even if they are burdened with something, they will definitely follow Chu Yan's instructions first.

Chu Yan was grateful for his companions' trust. He laughed and said frankly:

“Because I feel like after arriving at the Tower of Babel, this unexpected situation has thrown me a bit off balance.

After talking with President Zhilan this morning, I was thinking about waiting for the results of the adventure group meeting in a few days. I just got some information and suddenly wanted to go to the tower to take a look.

It’s a bit like… coming up with a plan on the spur of the moment.”

When new changes come, his policy suddenly changes, which is not a good thing no matter how you look at it.

If this continues, if some new situation arises after a while, Chu Yan may waver in his plan again.

After realizing this, Chu Yan quickly thought of asking his companions what they thought.

Among them, there are many who have more experience than himself.

"Omega, Bertha, you've both been 'dog officers' and have led your own teams. Don't you have anything to teach me?"

Omega was silent for a while. The elder sister pointed out Chu Yan's state of mind and said:

“Have you seen that the adventuring teams and groups here are having a hard time, and are they affected by the anxiety?

Please be confident and at ease. You have handled everything for us very well. We have no shortage of supplies. The worries that others face do not apply to us. "

Of course, Omega felt that the problem still lay with the Yama Empire.

When he arrived at the Tower of Babel, he was faced with an army that was ready for battle. If he wanted to respond, he had to wait.

288

, observe the decisions of all parties. After all, we cannot shake the imperial army by ourselves alone.

He had to start considering other people's moods when handling matters, which was not in line with the "willful" style he developed in Paradise City.

The little lord before had the courage to set up a battle array in front of the city gate, causing the church to suffer so much that it could not swallow it.

Bertha and Omega exchanged glances and nodded to each other. She said to Chu Yan:

“The roles of the lord and the captain are different. I think you can let go of the team concept in your mind. You don’t need to think that you are responsible for the fate of us, and you don’t need to feel sorry for us if you encounter any setbacks.

We are not that delicate.”

Chu Yan understood what Belsa meant. She was telling him not to think about finding the "best move".

The more you want to be perfect and take the overall situation into consideration, the more likely you are to stop moving forward and move forward in fear.

"What attitude should I adopt?" He scratched his head.

"Use the lord mentality you are familiar with, young master."

The secretary continued to play her role as an assistant and continued:

"You came here to complete a trial. The team consists of your subordinates and servants. They are all around you and following you, rather than you carrying them on your back."

Everyone nodded in agreement, not wanting Chu Yan to feel any strange pressure because of it.

Chu Yan calmed down and said, "Okay, then I decided to hire Little Green Hair to lead the way and see if the trail he controls is real."

If he waited a few more days and waited for the adventure groups to hold a meeting to discuss the matter, Chu Yan would just continue to act according to other people's wishes and wait for the situation to develop.

But the leader of the Dead Sea's unruly people has always done what he wants!

"However, according to my past style, before encountering difficulties or doing big things, I usually take a nap first."

Shanuoya deeply understood his words:

"Indeed, on the first day of becoming the lord, he crawled into my bed..."

Janet was a little confused and asked:

"Let me confirm. Does this 'sleep first' mean simply sleeping, or is it the kind of sleep you use to replenish your reserve magic power before heading into the tower?"

Chapter 23 Traitors to the Empire

Chu Yan was really convinced. Janet made the atmosphere suddenly become weird.

Even if you really want to say it, can't you keep it in private?

But her words were also a reminder.

Even if you don't want to wait for the reactions of all parties, you still have to make adequate logistical preparations on your side.

In the event that the situation deviates from expectations, the spare magic power must be replenished in advance, otherwise if a battle breaks out in the Tower of Babel, the environmental conditions may not be so good.

Even horses have to stop to eat grass when they are tired. You can't beat them while plugging in a gas pump to help them replenish their magic, right?

Chu Yan changed the subject, as if he hadn't heard Janet's words, and said:

"Then prepare all the medicines and food that we need to purchase today, and set off directly tomorrow."

Inside the Tower of Babel.

The internal environment of the Tower of Babel on this level can be regarded as an extra-large cave.

Judging from the current exploration progress, this area is divided into upper and lower levels.

After hundreds of years and the efforts of several generations of adventurers, the upper layer has been completely explored and mapped.

Although monsters still appear, it has become a place with little profit.

The deepest part of the Tower of Babel that is often mentioned is the lower level.

The entrance to the lower level was discovered more than 100 years ago. There are still many unknowns in the map here, and even the border between the east and the west has not been explored.

According to current historical records, our ancestors in the past world had enough time to figure out the map of the tower, scrape off every drop of oil and water, and "plunder" every relic stronghold.

After growing to satisfaction, he finally opened the door to a new world and challenged the powerful existence behind it.

But now looking at the "development progress" of this level, worries are hidden in the invisible time.

However, from a realistic perspective, there is still plenty of money in the Tower of Babel...

Right now,

The army of the Yama Empire was divided into small teams, searching for something closely.

A pair of eyes watched them vigilantly, and when he confirmed that they were not approaching him, he breathed a sigh of relief.

After the search team left, he carefully returned to his hidden camp with the canned food on him.

In this camp with a tricky route, there is a group of imperial soldiers who are also wearing non-commissioned officer uniforms.

In the corner dimly illuminated by the bonfire, there was a noble lady in an elegant white dress. Next to her was a little girl, looking at the soldiers in fear.

The girl's cognition was still immature, and she didn't understand why those who had once protected her suddenly showed malicious intent.

She heard words like "treason" and "kidnapping" in her mother's soothing words.

"How ironic..." said Yitos, the rebel leader, a man with a buzz cut.

After days of fleeing, his beard had been neglected and now looked more like a bandit's thorny beard.

"Captain Yitos, what did you think of?"

"I wonder if our current situation is retribution. Some of you are new soldiers and don't know the past, but there should be veterans. Who still remembers Omega and Bertha, the chief and deputy officers?"

"Remember, why did I suddenly think of these two rebel 'seniors'?

289

? ”

When Yitos mentioned these two names, in fact, all the recruits in the team had heard of them.

In that incident, Omega found people from the Sanctuary of Discipline and rescued Belsa, who was supposed to be executed. This challenged the emperor's authority within the empire and has become an example of traitor in military academy textbooks.

How could it be considered a provocation to authority? Because they were ordered to execute them, and they refused to accept it, which was equivalent to disobeying the order. They also introduced the power of the church to interfere in military affairs, which was an even greater crime!

However, at the end of this incident, some people were promoted and rewarded.

Among them was Omega's immediate superior at the time, and one of the current generals, Shi Li.

A brief review of the incident that year:

[Shi Li's subordinates found the "mysterious power scroll" in the tower. In order to get credit to the emperor as soon as possible, he issued an order to build a new army, and the new army uniformly learned this power. ]

[Research has found that this power is the faith contract of the 'Dead Blood Demon', which will make the soldiers' loyalty no longer pure. The emperor issued a cleanup order to destroy this new army.]

[In order to save his lieutenant, Omega began to resist the cleanup order. ]

[The farce ended, and many people, led by Omega, were identified as traitors to the empire. Shi Li was promoted and awarded the rank of general for his loyal suppression of the rebellion.]

If you knew the inside story, you would know that Omega and others were undeserved victims. They became traitors for no apparent reason and scapegoats for the upper class to gain merits for no apparent reason.

So, what does this have to do with this current rebel squad?

It’s simple, General Shi Li wants credit again!

Captain Itos took a bite of the canned food and said self-deprecatingly:

"Back then, I was promoted by General Shi Li because of the 'suppression of rebellion'. Now it's my turn to be the scapegoat in exchange for merit."

In the campfire camp, no one responded to the captain's words, only sighs could be heard one after another.

It was when Itos discovered General Shili's intention that he took advantage of his position to kidnap his wife and daughter, and fled with several of his cronies to a hidden corner in the lower level of the Tower of Babel.

Yitos had no plan for the future. All he could think of was to run away with the hostages, and then think about countermeasures slowly after he ran far away.

After running for so many days, they still haven't come up with a solution.

"I never thought I'd get to experience Lieutenant Omega's state of mind one day... I heard that the place on the border of the Dead Sea is a place where you have to survive ten to one. Sooner or later, you'll die at the hands of monsters. Alas."

"Captain Yitos, what should we do now? Should we bring this mother and daughter over to threaten them?"

No one responded to this proposal.

They were all soldiers of the Yama Empire, and they knew very well that as rebels they had almost no way out.

Does blackmail work? Revenge afterwards is easy.

It is also very easy for the empire to issue a warrant for arrest and kill him.

They really didn't know what to do and found themselves in a dead end for no apparent reason.

Simply because the boss wanted to take credit.

Opportunities to make meritorious service are hard to find, so create them yourself. Monthly fee group 694936135.

General Shi Li had tasted success in the incident that year, and he was trying to repeat the same thing.

Whoever is chosen to be the traitor will basically have no chance of turning things around.

"The only plan now is to either find a way to contact General Shi Li's political enemies, or find the barracks that General Shi Li built in the tower and release the soldiers controlled by the contract."

Itos said tiredly but firmly that this was the only way for them to survive!

While they were discussing, the ground beneath their feet began to crack and the claws of the monster emerged from inside.

"Why are there monsters again? This corner is really endless. Take the mother and daughter with you and leave!"

The search party had not gone very far, and the noise of fighting might alarm them.
