Chapter 196 The new official takes office! Carrots and sticks
Early the next morning, the guards received a summons order, which should have been issued by the new Sheriff Chen Rui.
When a new official takes office, he will inevitably have to show off his power, but to show off his power, he also needs people to cooperate. After the summons was issued for a long time, only about 200 people came in sparsely, not even one-tenth.[bsp;
Come here and give this new Sheriff a slap in the face. Who told you that you are a human being with no power at all?
Of course, most people are not sleeping peacefully at home, but are waiting to see the development of the situation. After all, it is one thing to show power, but another thing to rebel.
Soon, the people watching heard the shocking news. The guards were divided into five groups. Except for the captains of the two groups who went forward after hearing the summons, the captains of the other three groups were dragged out and beheaded.
Captain Hun serves as the captain.
Within an hour, if the current captain cannot summon his subordinates, they will all be beheaded, and the squad captain who arrives first will serve as the captain, and so on. Don't doubt the viciousness and methods of the new sheriff, because the biggest police officer in the city
The organization, the Cloak Club, has publicly expressed its support for the human vigilante. The originally "passive" captain was personally killed by Araux and his men. Now, the Cloak Club has controlled every corner of the city and cannot even escape.
Lose.
An hour later, all the guards appeared on the playground of the military camp. Many of them were caught out by the new captain in a hurry. If the time is delayed, the captain's position and life will not be saved, and it will be cheaper.
Someone else!
A bloody human head hung high on the flagpole of the high platform, while the new Sheriff Chen Rui stood on the platform as if nothing had happened, secretly observing the guards under the platform. Most of the guards were lazy and it was difficult to even stand in formation.
, there are also some people with good abilities showing contempt.
"Cough"..." Chen Rui cleared his throat through the magic amplification: "Let me introduce myself, I am the newly appointed Sheriff Chen Rui by Her Royal Highness the Princess..."
"Incompetent human beings!" Someone had already started to shout, and there was a burst of laughter from below.
Chen Rui was not angry: "The sixth row of the second team, that horned devil in red who is leading the heckles, come on stage now. If you can survive in my hands for one minute, you can go back and sleep every day.
I can still receive military pay every month.”
The horned demon didn't expect that human eyes could see him with such sharp eyes. Then he heard Chen Rui's words and shouted: "Really?"
Chen Rui nodded: "This is a military camp. Everything I say here is valid. All the guards are your witnesses."
Seeing that there was a good show to watch, everyone moved out of the way. The horned devil walked onto the stage in three steps and two steps at a time. Before he could say anything, Chen Rui waved to him. Suddenly, the horned devil's body froze, and his whole body was stunned.
It began to corrode at a speed visible to the naked eye and turned into a skeleton in an instant, and a liquid mixed with venom and blood spread all over the ground.
The noisy voice immediately subsided, and they looked at this scene in horror. This horned demon was a squad leader, and the high-level strength of the intermediate demon was considered good among the guards. He was turned into bones in just one encounter. If I had known this human being was
The apprentice of Master Aldas never expected to learn such a terrifying poison technique so quickly.
"Don't call me Zhuo, I'm just a pharmacist." Chen Rui shamelessly promoted his incompetent apprentice status to a pharmacist without authorization. "To tell you the truth, I have obtained the true biography of Master Aldas. If I still
If anyone is dissatisfied, please come forward one by one. I will ask him to come to my and the teacher's laboratory and be a test subject for a few days. As long as he can come out alive, I will promote him to an official position."
Master Aldas' laboratory!
This time, the playground was completely silent: everyone knew that the laboratory in the outer courtyard of the palace was the scariest place in the entire Dark Moon City. Screams were often heard in the past, and even the strongest palace guards did not dare to approach, let alone
Going in to be "experimental subjects"? The screams have disappeared during this period, but the rumors are more terrifying, such as experiments on fresh corpses, which make people's hair stand on end.
Pharmacists are not a fighting type, but they also have a series of poisoning methods for self-protection. Chen Rui learned a lot from Aldas, and combined with his exquisite control of power, he can withstand a fake pharmacist even without revealing his strength.
His name is deceiving.
At this time, the messenger at the gate of the military camp came to report: "The Mellon family and the Cass sent people to come and ask for a meeting outside the military camp.
There were whispers among the guards. The two captains whose heads were beheaded were members of the Mellon family and the Cass family. These are interesting things to watch, but why do you still need to "seek"?
Chen Rui nodded: "Let them come in."
Representatives of the two families came to the high platform and saluted respectfully. They did not mention anything about the slain captain, but brought a large number of gifts to express congratulations to the new sheriff on behalf of the clan leaders.
People came to congratulate one after another. In addition to the Seifer family, almost all the big and small families in Dark Moon came. This was the first time for many guardsmen to see such a big scene, and they were dumbfounded. It seemed that the human peace officer
The energy is far beyond imagination.
Soon, another important person came, Royce, who represented Financial Officer Joseph. Royce's attitude was also very respectful, expressing his apology that Joseph could not come in person, and sponsored two hundred sets of high-quality
Leather armor and weapons.
The arrival of the Royce and Mellon families was authorized by Joseph, and their purpose was to help Chen Rui build momentum, intensify the opposition between him and the Seifer family, arouse Shia's suspicion, and further cause divisions.
Immediately afterwards, the new deputy leader of the Cloak Club, Araukes, and the manager Didi also came on behalf of the leader of the Cloak Club, Agulie, and expressed their greatest support for Chen Rui in public. Many guards were also members of the Cloak Club.
He felt more and more in awe of this human peace officer.
After thanking all the guests, Chen Rui continued to speak: "I admit that I am not a combat type, so I hired two instructors to train you. The instructors can be fully responsible for all affairs in the military. I will give you a
Opportunity, if you can defeat the instructor in the challenge, then you can replace the instructor's position and receive generous remuneration.",..."
Chen Rui talked about a lot of benefits, whetted everyone's appetite, and then introduced: "The first instructor is my friend Agulie's most capable subordinate, the vice-president of the Cloak Club, Arloux."
Araukes in the audience flashed in an instant and appeared next to Chen Rui. He bowed slightly. When facing the guards, he suddenly had a double-headed sickle in his hand. There was no magic loudspeaker and a voice like gold and iron.
It resounded throughout the audience.
"If you don't agree, step forward."
Although Araux lost to Agulie, his strength in that battle was fully demonstrated. Even if he is inferior to Agullie, he is still one of the most powerful high-level demons in Dark Moon, and he has a fierce reputation. Who dares to challenge him?
As soon as these words came out, almost all the guards took a step back, and the guy who was "stepped forward" almost wet his pants in fear.
Araux did not care and sneered: "Cowardly guys, in the coming days, I will make you stronger! Everyone who retreated just now will stay with me later. Those who dare to run away will die!"
This time, the people who wet their pants became those who retreated. No one dared to doubt the authenticity of Araux's last words. In the arena, countless escapees had died under Araux's hands.
From what Chen Rui said, he and the most powerful Agulie turned out to be good friends. No wonder Agulie publicly expressed his maximum support and even "lent" Araukes to Chen Rui as an instructor.
"The second instructor is the first female swordsman of Darkmoon City, the first general of the empire, George, the daughter of Wells, Miss Athena!"
Athena walked onto the stage wearing leather armor and carrying a big sword on her back. The first female swordsman of the Dark Moon was obviously much more popular than Araux. Her beautiful appearance and sexy figure attracted many people.
He clapped his hands with bright eyes. Many people only heard of Athena's name and had never seen her strength. Some people were already eager to challenge her.
However, Athena's next move shocked the whole audience. Everyone's eyes were dazzled. Athena had already pulled out the sword and slashed it to one side. The ground trembled, and the entire high platform made of solid stone suddenly collapsed.
Halfway through, not only that, but a terrifying ravine more than ten meters long and several meters deep extended from behind.
Athena's cold voice sounded: "Challengers need to have the consciousness of death."
The scene was quiet. Even the coughs caused by the dust were suppressed. People in the audience took a breath. The power of this sword was not much worse than Araux's strength. It was worthy of being said.
The daughter of the first general in the empire.
In fact, these people still underestimated Athena. Araucus knew in his heart that Athena had never used her real power. If this sword was to strike for real, even he would never be able to withstand it. No wonder the master once said,
The strength of this "Mother" is now close to that of the Demon King.
What a waste."... Chen Rui looked at the half-collapsed high platform, shook his head secretly, and then said: "There is another good news to tell everyone. I have obtained the special approval from the eldest princess. As long as everyone's training results reach the level of two instructors,
If you meet the requirements, then in the future, military pay and munitions supplies will be able to enjoy the same treatment as the Guards, and there will be additional monthly rewards."
This carrot behind the stick made everyone’s eyes brighten. What is the Imperial Guard? The strongest guard under the eldest princess, whether it is equipment or military pay, is several grades higher than the Guard Army. The Guard Army
They have been salivating for a long time. Now that they can enjoy this kind of treatment, how can it not be exciting?
As long as the treatment can get better and better, it doesn’t matter who is the leader. Don’t forget that the previous Sheriff Allen was only a mid-level demon, and it didn’t rely on the strength of the Caron family?
"If everyone has no objections, then from tomorrow, closed training will officially begin." Chen Rui then asked loudly: "Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
Although the answers were still mixed, for the first time there was a little life.
Chen Rui saw the expressions of these guys in his eyes and smiled slightly. The treatment of the Imperial Guards was correct. The key was the previous sentence, "As long as the training meets the requirements of the two instructors." It is estimated that these guys will be killed tomorrow.
I practiced until I cried for my father and mother.
Next is the matter of the two instructors Athena and Araucus, but Chen Rui has no way to relax for a while. As the leader of the cloak society, the largest force in the city, "Agulie" has a more important thing in front of him.
