Terra Martial God and Merit System

"Puff!" Luo Chen directly chopped off his head.

The shadow on the side of the carriage covered Luo Chen's face. Now the snakes could only see a black-faced man saying coldly and crazy words - "None of you can leave."

"Run!" A snake scale jumped up and ran out of the carriage, and the rest of the snake scales also showed their magical powers. Some even took out weapons and wanted to attack Luo Chen.

Unfortunately, facing all this, Luo Chen just smiled lightly and then raised his knife.

Three minutes later, no one in the convoy survived.

Luo Chen climbed onto the carriage and looked at the white clouds in the distance, feeling that his martial arts had improved a step further.

He copied out the 'mission brief' he had taken from the car and began to read it.

These people were indeed sent by Kosice to cause trouble, but their preparations were much more complete than Dumiso's.

"The Ursus Sixth Army? Koschei wants to cooperate with them to suppress me?" Luo Chen looked at the information on the task report.

Then I recalled it carefully.

When he massacred the sentry towers before, the soldiers who blocked the road and collected money seemed to be from this "Sixth Army".

"This group of troops is stationed not far from Kamsk. No wonder Kosice wants to cooperate with them."

Luo Chen carefully recalled the political situation in Ursus——

The old nobility obtained their titles through military merit and had close ties with the military.

The new nobility obtained their titles through commercial activities and did not actually support war.

This also led to conflicts between the two, and Kosice, as a "war faction", was undoubtedly the former.

"The Sixth Army... the regular army of Ursus?"

Hellagur has been emphasizing to Luo Chen the horror of the Ursus regular army.

He even said that the city defense troops under his command were nothing more than a pile of dirt that could be crushed at any time in front of a real army.

Each army group was equipped with sophisticated standard weapons and equipment, and the army was composed of a variety of arms. It was definitely not comparable to the scattered soldiers that Luo Chen was dealing with now.

"A regular army? But since they have chosen to be my enemy, I am interested in giving it a try. At least their sentry towers are not allowed to appear within the range of Kamsko."

Luo Chen stood up, picked up Liuyun, and walked towards the "connection location" mentioned in the mission briefing.

Chapter 74: The Sixth Army

The Sixth Army was corrupt.

In other words, if you want to support a strong army, you need a lot of money.

The Sixth Army was not satisfied with the military budget allocated by the Ursus central government, but tried to go further with its own strength.

It's not just the sentry towers scattered across the wilderness, they're also involved in human smuggling and the mines in the north.

Luo Chen and Surtel have encountered this kind of situation where people were robbed on the road. Generally speaking, if they gave money, they could leave.

But what if you don’t get enough money?

In all likelihood they will be taken away and sold to mines in the north.

This behavior is of course illegal. And it is a felony in Ursus law. But the Sixth Army can jump out of this law by "bugging".

The Ursus people are severely discriminated against the infected, and the Ursus government supports the discrimination against the people and sets up patrol teams to hunt down the infected. The infected are often caught and taken to the northwest mines for labor. The Ursus army even has the right to kill the infected.

Yes, those who were abducted were actually healthy. But what does that matter?

Anyway, you will become infected after doing it for a while.

There is no such thing as human rights for those infected.

Even if someone were to use this thing to impeach the Sixth Army, there would be nothing we could do about it.

After all, hating infected people is completely politically correct.

Not to mention that the Sixth Army also controls an army. In this world, strength is the hard truth.

This is also the reason why the Sixth Army continued to send people and even threatened Viscount Igor to pay compensation after Luo Chen killed everyone in the sentry tower.

The benefits are huge and there is no risk. Why not?

Even though Viscount Igor died and Luo Chen took over as the city lord, the blockers in the watchtowers still did not leave.

Because for the top leaders of the Sixth Army, no matter who takes over, their highway robbery business will continue.

After all....no one dares to oppose them.

Of course, for Luo Chen, this kind of thing cannot continue to happen.

He would not allow so many walking merits to appear in his territory.

So, the killing began.

Luo Chen first came to the meeting point between She Lin and the other party, and gained the other party's trust with his "smooth tongue". Then Luo Chen began to ask for benefits in the name of Grand Duke Koschei.

Luo Chen hinted that he wanted to use the sentry tower to interrupt Kamsco's foreign trade.

The contact person happily gave him something - a 'sentry tower distribution map', as well as their internal codes and secret phrases.

Luo Chen was overjoyed, and then said that if he robbed the caravan, he would definitely give him a lot of money as a profit.

After the two of them parted happily, Luo Chen began to draw according to the map.

To be honest, this helped Luo Chen a lot.

Simply using the combination of [Soul Separation] + [Electric Eye] consumes merits, and can only detect where there are evil people. It cannot know the details.

This map not only shows the locations of all the watchtowers, but also points out the primary and secondary relationships.

Luo Chen only needs to clean up those small sentry towers first, and then clean up the higher-level sentry towers. He doesn't have to worry about alerting the enemy.

You have to know that what Luo Chen Tutu feared most was that the opponent would scatter and flee when he was having a great time killing.

Now you don’t have to worry about this problem at all.

Just push forward all the way and it's over!

Luo Chen even saw several watchtowers that he had dealt with before while clearing them.

But now new soldiers have arrived.

Luo Chen killed them all. He felt that these sentry towers were like wild monster refresh points. The wild monsters would refresh as long as he waited for a while.

Thinking of this, Luo Chen simply used all his strength and no longer showed mercy.

The snow and woods between the watchtowers that seemed difficult to walk on were as easy as walking on flat ground for Luo Chen, not to mention the map provided by the 'insider'.

Luo Chen killed many people and finally cleared out the watchtowers when dusk came.

Luo Chen felt extremely comfortable looking at his newly earned merits.

He planned to speed up the refresh of wild monsters, so he found a large sentry tower and used the communication equipment inside.

After saying the corresponding code of the 'contact person', Luo Chen quickly got in touch with him.

"Why are you using this to communicate with me?" The other party was very confused and obviously didn't understand why Luo Chen contacted him that day.

Generally speaking, people of their status should try to reduce contact as much as possible.

"That's what I was going to say!" Luo Chen said angrily, "What's wrong with you? Why are all the people in the sentry tower dead?"

"What?!" The Sixth Army was extremely shocked. "What did you say?!"

"Everyone is dead! I checked several sentry towers, and they were all filled with dead bodies!" Luo Chen remained as cold and ruthless as a snake. "I will report this to Grand Duke Kosice."

"Wait! We need some time to investigate!"

The other party hung up the phone in a hurry. Luo Chen also left the sentry tower with satisfaction.

Now all you have to do is wait for a while, and you will be able to reap another wave of merit.

Thinking of this, Luo Chen became happy.

He hummed a little tune and walked towards Kamsco.

--------

On the other hand, the information was passed layer by layer within the Sixth Army Group, and finally reached the hands of the Sixth Army Group Commander.

This is a middle-aged Ursus man wearing a heavy military uniform. The so-called "heavy" is literal.

His clothes were covered with badges of various sizes, which sparkled in the light.

The gold on these badges was not simply painted on, but was real gold. Some special parts were even replaced with more precious gems.

These badges are hung upside down in layers, and just looking at them can make you feel dizzy.

When his men found him, he was having his portrait painted by a famous artist.

Upon hearing the news, Commander Braulio snorted coldly, then looked at his men. "What do you think?"

"This matter is indeed strange." The staff officer said cautiously, "and the timing is too coincidental. Could it be that Snake Scales took action? But Grand Duke Kosice has no conflicts with us."

"Except for this...there is no force around that has the ability to clear all our sentry towers in a short period of time."

“I’m worried…”

"What? Are you afraid of those nonsense rumors?" Braulio looked up. "Those scary winter monsters? No, I tell you clearly, that's impossible."

"But we did lose a lot of people..."

"Someone has to take the blame." Braulio thought for a moment, "Find the new city lord and ask him to pay compensation. Igor's previous mistakes will also be blamed on him."

"What if he doesn't give it?"

"No?" Braulio laughed. "He won't refuse to give it. Because he doesn't dare not to give it!"

"Also..." He paused, "Send more people to take over the sentry tower. Increase vigilance. Also, you must investigate this matter thoroughly."

"No matter who it is...I will make him pay the price!"

Chapter 75 All Mine

"You mean, I have to pay 5,000 dollars for each missing soldier?"

Luo Chen asked as he looked at the man in military uniform in front of him with a gloomy face.

"Yes." The Sixth Army's envoy said as if it was a matter of course. "I have already sent the bill to your Minister of Commerce."

"Wait." Luo Chen raised his hand and looked at him with a half-smile. "What's the reason?"

"Do you have any evidence that this matter has anything to do with me?"

"This is what happened in your territory." The messenger said coldly, "My Lord Earl, running away will not solve the problem."

"You need to compensate us. In addition, according to Ursus law, the surrounding mobile cities are obliged to provide supplies to nearby garrisons. You can use food to offset some of the money. Of course - only half at most."

"We need staple food, and we also accept agricultural and sideline products such as eggs and milk..."

"The compensation must be handed over within one month. I hope that Your Excellency the Earl understands the importance of this matter."

"What if I don't give it?"

The messenger looked at Luo Chen, with a hint of mockery in his eyes, "You don't want to know what you are going to face."

"I only know what you are going to face." Luo Chen said coldly.

When Lin Yuxia came to the office door with the documents, the door shattered instantly.

A figure flew out and hit the wall of the corridor.

His upper body was sunken, and his eyes were lifeless, except for a hint of disbelief.

Until Luo Chen took action, he still didn't understand why the other party did this.

Lin Yuxia stared at the corpse for a few seconds, then walked in.

"Do you know who you killed?" Lin Yuxia asked.

"A lackey."

"Do you really know his master?"

"In my opinion, they are all dying." Luo Chen said coldly, "What do you want to say?"
