Warhammer: Starting with Industrial Revolution

The situation is completely different now. There are still five people left on the field, but everyone is on high alert and will not relax for even a second.

After Luo Ning turned off the lights, everyone moved about with ulterior motives.

Rol and Finch were the first to attack, using their powerful physiques to pounce on Gil in the darkness.

While they still had some reservations, Kiel was indeed a master at taking advantage of the chaos, but faced with the simultaneous attack of two big guys, Kiel had almost no ability to resist and was pinned to the ground.

Finch gave him no chance to resist and tore off the note on Gil's back.

This time, however, Luo Ning did not turn on the lights, allowing darkness to envelop the entire venue.

These children have fully grasped the rules and don't need any more time to pause.

Ed reacted quickly and ran towards Roll, his footsteps making a loud thud that attracted the attention of Roll and Finch.

"Hey! Ed! You underestimate us!" Ronin turned around and glared at Ed, but at that moment, Lu Xiu, who had been lying in wait, rushed forward and eliminated Rohr with lightning speed.

Finch, furious, watched warily as the two men in front of him pressed their bodies against the wall, revealing no weakness whatsoever.

At this moment, Edward and Lucius stopped what they were doing and slowly slipped into the shadows of the room, as if they had disappeared.

They both have two weaknesses. If they attack directly, they will not gain any advantage over the tall and strong Finch, whether in terms of size or strength.

And so they remained silent in the darkness, as if possessing boundless patience, quietly waiting for any glimmer of opportunity.

"Ed." In the darkness, Lucius's voice, though soft, still broke the silence of the room.

Everyone looked toward the corner where the sound had come from. Lu Xiu was crouching very low, and it was only after he made the sound that the boys finally confirmed his location.

Edward slowly moved closer, wondering what Lucius was planning.

Finch, meanwhile, pressed himself against the wall, his eyes fixed intently on the two men, extremely vigilant.

Of all the people, only Gil suddenly laughed, shaking his head helplessly. He had already seen through Lucius's strategy, but he didn't point it out.

The moment Edward and Lucius met, before they could even speak, Lucius reached out and ripped the note off Edward's chest, leaving Edward standing there bewildered.

At the same time, Luo Ning turned on the lights.

"Oh dear! You're so stupid! Master specifically reminded you that you two aren't working together!" Gil scratched his head, ran towards Ed, and kept shaking his shoulders.

Finch, on the other hand, was puzzled. He said blankly, "Kiel, what are you doing in here? The battle isn't over yet!"

"No, it's over." Edward sighed as he came to his senses.

Seeing Finch's still confused look, Kiel explained helplessly, "This competition isn't about who's the last winner, it's about points! You idiot!"

Finch stood there, stunned, thinking for a long time, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, as if he were trying to sort out the score in his mind.

Luo Ning clapped his hands and stepped forward.

"Kil is right, Lucius won."

Finch counted on his fingers for a long time but still couldn't figure out the score. In the end, he was dragged away by his companions, who were laughing and joking.

Looking at the group of teenagers, Luo Ning was filled with emotion.

In the cruel underbelly of this empire, the pure friendship among these young people, untainted by any self-interest, is truly rare.

Led by Luo Ning, the boys were taken to another room in the governor's mansion, which had been converted into a lounge.

In the spacious room, ten soft beds were neatly arranged, clean and comfortable.

The boys stared in disbelief at the bed before them, frozen in place. They looked at Luo Ning incredulously.

"You will no longer have to sleep in prison cells. From today onwards, this will be your room. You are no longer slaves, but my personal guards, Ronin's personal guards. In the future, you will become the most powerful fighting force in my army. I look forward to the day when you will tear apart any enemy that stands in my way, like sharp blades."

Luo Ning spoke slowly, but found that the children were not listening at all. When they heard Luo Ning say that this was their room, they all rushed in.

Whether it was the gloomy Lucius, the slippery Gil, or the shy Finch, they all rushed into the room without exception.

Like children who have received toys, they excitedly rolled around on the soft beds, vying for the beds, their laughter filling the room.

Even Ed was the same; although he didn't join the other children in playing, he slowly walked into the room, looking around their new home with delighted eyes.

Luo Ning smiled and shook his head. After all, they were just a bunch of kids.

He gently closed the door, leaving them alone.

With high-quality food, a good sleeping environment, and their own hard work and dedication, these children are destined to surpass ordinary people. Luo Ning has placed great expectations on them.

When he arrived at the restaurant the following evening, the girls were already there.

As agreed, only the victor, Lucius, is qualified to sit at the table and share the feast tonight.

"How does it feel to win the game?" Luo Ning asked, looking at the taciturn Lu Xiu.

Lu Xiu put down his knife and fork, looked up at Luo Ning, and remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking:

"Please forgive me, Master, but the taste of victory is not as good as I imagined. Enjoying this delicious food alone is not nearly as enjoyable as eating it with everyone yesterday."

He paused, then looked at the girls sitting across the table, pursed his lips, and continued, "Besides, it's not fair. Why can all the girls sit at the table?"

Luo Ning couldn't help but smile. These words couldn't possibly anger him. He simply explained slowly, "I always have to give the victor some reward, don't I?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiu simply lowered his head, remained silent, and began to eat his food in quiet contemplation.

"Just say what you want to say, don't be so nervous." Luo Ning waved his hand casually.

Lu Xiu paused, then continued, "Master, you set goals for us, and we will do our best. Besides, this reward is obtained by taking away other people's benefits, so I still don't like it."

His voice was low, but incredibly clear.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly cold and gloomy boy was actually very meticulous and always kept his companions in mind.

Luo Ning was deeply moved; he hadn't seen such pure and innocent sentiments in a long time.

"Alright, you win." Luo Ning smiled helplessly. "Go and call everyone over. From now on, there will be no more champion rewards; we'll all eat together."

Lu Xiu looked into Luo Ning's eyes, as if he were truly confirming what he had said.

Then, in the next second, he quickly got up and ran out.
