Chapter 82 Persistence and Compromise
Chapter 82: Persistence and Compromise (page 1/1)
After arranging the first wave of ancient demons, Marquez went out again, preparing to search for more tribesmen.
However, the total space of the shelter is only that big, and the maximum number of people it can accommodate is only about 10,000 people. If it is more, the supplies required will also be a big burden for Marquez.
Three thousand...
Marquez set his own small goals.
Three thousand people would not consume much time or supplies, nor would it attract much attention. Marquez's abacus worked very well.
And the fact is exactly what Marquez thought. After all three thousand ancient demons were placed in the shelter by Marquez, everything seemed calm and there was no doubt.
After doing all this, Marquez left enough supplies for the ancient demons for seven days, and then disappeared in a flash.
…
District Three Outpost.
When Marquez returned to his garrison position, it was already dark.
But the entire District 3 outpost is still brightly lit - due to the harassment of monsters, it is destined to be sleepless tonight.
Of course, all this has nothing to do with Marquez. The superiors did not assign Marquez a more specific task. They just said that he could go if he wanted to go, and if he didn't want to go, he should guard the line of defense.
Simple command.
As for Marquez, he is not willing to get involved in such nonsense - he was originally a demon, but he became the commander of the human army. If Marquez goes to the front line, where should he place himself? What kind of location?
In fact, Marquez himself couldn’t figure it out…
But someone can figure it out...
His brother can understand...
…
"Marquez!"
A low voice sounded from outside the door, and then, before Marquez could make any response, the door was opened.
Marquez just lay on the bed, turned his head and glanced at the visitor, then ignored him.
thunder……
Marquez's brother is also a person with the same fate and even a connection.
"Get up and come out with me."
Ray came to Marquez's bedside and spoke to Marquez.
Marquez, on the other hand, just maintained a salty attitude.
"Hurry up……"
Ray, perhaps a little impatient, spoke very quickly and harshly.
"What are you going for?"
"Kill the enemy!"
"What is an enemy?"
"The demons are the enemy!"
"Pfft..."
There was a sneer, but the simple conversation made Marquez look sarcastic. He turned around completely, lying on his side and looked at Lei, and sneered in a low voice.
"Why, do you really think of yourself as a human being?"
Hearing this, Lei just frowned, and then sighed.
He sat beside Marquez's bed and spoke slowly as if comforting his younger brother.
"Marquez, the situation has changed..."
"Well, it's changed. You've become a human, right?"
"No, it's us, we have become humans..."
At this moment, Lei's eyes were sincere. He looked at Marquez like this, as if he was looking at a child who would never grow up...
"It's been decades, it's been decades... The Demon Palace has not responded, and no one has contacted us. In fact, you should also understand that the level and strength of the two of us are beyond the eyes of the Demon Lord. He was After giving the order to the two of us, I thought about it, and I always felt that it was a dispensable free move, but now, the free move has become a dead move..."
"We've been given up."
Ray recognized the reality and he accepted it.
Marquez also recognized the reality...
But he did not accept the reality!
At this moment, Marquez’s voice was calm.
"I know we were given up, but that doesn't mean we can abandon our essence and everything we once were. What do you want to do, Ray, I don't care, but now I don't want to do anything."
"I don't want to really defend the territory like the soldiers of Yanjing.
I don’t want to run rampant like a monster and then be killed by a stronger professional. I just want to earn some military salary honestly, and wait until a certain time to retire and find a deserted place to live my life peacefully. Half a life, that's all. "
Marquez said these words sincerely...
But what the facts are cannot be clearly stated in words.
Seeing Marquez's disgusted look, Lei finally shook his head and walked out of Marquez's room.
Mobilize troops, organize soldiers, and be fully armed.
Under the darkness of night, Lei led his men to rush towards the areas most plagued by demonic disasters!
He needs merit, he needs status, he is ambitious, he wants to climb higher...
He really wants to become a human being and completely integrate into the earth and even within Yanjing.
He is the exact opposite of Marquez.
…
The conversation just now seemed to be ringing in the ears of a demon, swirling endlessly in Marquez's mind. The more he thought about it, the more complicated it became, and the more he thought about it, the more messy his thinking became.
His situation, Ray's situation, everything seemed to be bombs exploding in Marquez's mind.
Worse than...
No one is worse off than him and Lei...
The sound of the formation ringing in his ears, Marquez listened to Lei walking further and further away. After waiting for dozens of minutes, he got up from the bed, put on his clothes, activated his teleportation ability, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. within the barracks.
The defense of the outpost in Area 3 was already lax, and Marquez had been here for too long. Moreover, Marquez's own skill system was very good at infiltration. In a very short time, Marquez disappeared from the outpost and appeared near the shelter.
He was very confident that his actions could not be discovered by anyone.
As Marquez went deeper into the cave, he finally came to the residence of the ancient demons after a while - tents had been set up one by one, and some ancient demons had fallen asleep.
The ancient demons who were on night watch discovered Marquez's trace.
"My lord."
They came forward one after another, looking at Marquez with gratitude and fear in their eyes.
Gratitude, of course, was gratitude for Marquez's kindness.
And fear, was afraid that Marquez would go back on his word and prepare to sell the demons here...
After all, humans and demons cannot coexist.
Sensing the psychological activities of these ancient demons, Marquez smiled at them.
"Arrange a bed for me, today, I will sleep with you."
He vaguely heard the ancient demons in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief.
...
A sound sleep all night.
When Marquez opened his eyes and looked at his watch, he found that the sun was already high in the sky.
He simply packed up and then walked out of the tent. Facing the grateful smiles of the ancient demons around him, at this moment, Marquez seemed to have found his life goal again.
Well, this is good.
He thought so and then walked out of the cave.
Under the dim sunlight, a figure was stretched out.
He saw Lei leaning against the cave entrance with a calm face.
