Chapter 325 Chaos in New Tristram
In the temple located in the center of New Tristram, Akara and other leaders gathered together. But everyone's face was clearly filled with sorrow.
"We have to stop them." Kasha was the first to break the silence, shouting with an indignant look.
No one responded. Everyone, including Akara, frowned and never raised their heads. The silence of the crowd made Kasha's face turn pale and blue, and finally lowered her head in dejection.
Everyone present knew that New Tristram was the stable rear base that the God-Benefactor Lanwu had painstakingly built. At the beginning, everyone was full of hope for the future of New Tristram. But everyone underestimated human desires.
The God-Benefactor Lanwu has been missing for three years. In these three years, more and more civilians have discovered that they have almost infinite potential. Out of the desire for professionals, more and more civilians have joined the training and soon obtained a new profession.
Crusader, monk.
The professionals of these two professions rose rapidly like a rocket and quickly grew into the backbone of New Tristram. The professionals who originally inherited the seven professions gradually fell behind, and their strength levels were far behind those of the new professionals. In just three years, due to the huge potential of human awakening, the new professionals have devoted themselves to the two professions of the Crusader Army and the Warrior Monk. Unable to replenish fresh blood, coupled with the inevitable accidental deaths that occurred during out-of-town training, the original seven professions have now declined.
In just three years, those awakened civilians suddenly gained powerful strength, which immediately made them lose their normal mind. The Crusader Army led by Virgil was fine. At the beginning of training, they repeatedly emphasized firm beliefs. Strong beliefs allowed the Crusader Army to control their own power. However, the Warrior Monk profession inherited by Claudia did not have enough practice, so many people lost themselves in the pursuit of power.
As more and more new professionals emerged, the problems that leaders such as Akara had been worried about finally broke out inevitably. The desert race Lugain people, due to their own racial advantages, are very suitable for the two new professions of the Crusader Army and the Warrior Monk. They have a considerable advantage in the two professions. However, the civilians of the original Rogue Camp only accounted for a minority in the two major professions.
So conflicts inevitably arose.
I don't know when, among the surviving Lugoyin people, there was a statement that Lugoyin people should become the rulers of New Tristram. When Akara and others noticed this discordant statement, this statement had already spread. Under the instigation of some ambitious people, the Lugoyin people who once accepted reality once again sprouted an inexplicable sense of superiority, and gradually began to hate the weak and the former Rogue Camp civilians who were regarded as bumpkins in their eyes.
Akara and others took measures as soon as possible, arranging the Crusaders and monks led by Virgil and Claudia to suppress such remarks. Unexpectedly, those Lugoyin people who were dazzled by their own power and a few Rogue Camp people who still lived in the past impulsively launched a rebellion under the instigation of ambitious people.
Although Virgil and Claudia have always stood at the top of the two professions. Unfortunately, this civil strife was beyond the ability of the two. Seventy percent of the new professionals participated in the civil strife, trying to seize the leadership of New Tristram.
The power of the two sides was very different. Virgil and Claudia struggled to hold on, and only then did they barely ensure that they were not defeated by the rebels and seized the leadership of New Tristram. But the two could not stop the chaos in New Tristram.
They were good at self-preservation, but not good at suppressing the rebellion.
In just a few months, the peaceful and vibrant New Tristram became chaotic. The rebels failed to seize New Tristram, so they persuaded a group of blindly obedient civilians to leave the town and established another town, clamoring to unify New Tristram and lead humans to drive away the demons.
New Tristram, with a population of more than 100,000, was divided into two forces. There were many professional rebels, accounting for more than 70% of all professionals. The number of civilians under their command was not large, accounting for less than 20% of the total civilian population. The remaining 30% of professionals and 80% of civilians still believed that Akara and other title heirs could lead humans to defeat the demons.
At this time, a loud explosion suddenly sounded outside the temple. The whole temple was slightly shaken. Akara and the others raised their heads at the same time, and the sorrow between their brows became even more intense.
"Damn it, they want to plunder the population again." Kasha jumped up in anger and strode to the outside of the temple: "These maggots in their heads, I swear in the name of Kasha, I must kill them all!"
Just as Kasha reached the door, he was knocked back by Virgil who was walking towards him. This leader of the Crusaders did not know how to adapt, and only used this method to calm Kasha down.
"What's the situation outside?" Akara stood up and asked anxiously.
"Very bad." Virgil shook his head, his eyes full of endless anger. Fortunately, he still remembered the purpose of this trip, and immediately suppressed his anger and said calmly: "Claudia asked me to come here to ask you to comfort the frightened civilians. We will defeat the traitors and protect our people."
"Got it." Akara nodded, looked around and calmly ordered: "Our warriors are protecting our homeland. Now it's our turn as leaders to do something. Go, each of you go to comfort the frightened civilians. Tell them that the gods are with us."
Kid and the others stood up and followed Akara out of the temple. Seeing that the mission had been accomplished, Virgil turned around and left immediately. Now his soldiers were fighting bloody battles to resist the attack of the rebels. As one of the commanders, he had to rush back to take charge as soon as possible.
"Wait, I'll go with you." Kasha didn't know when he changed his equipment and chased after him with a dark golden spear.
Virgil didn't refuse. Now the more fighting power, the more chances of winning. Although Kasha's strength can no longer be said to be able to keep up with the times, he was still a strong man after all.
Following behind, Kasha didn't remain silent for long, and couldn't help asking, "Is there still no news about him?"
Virgil paused, then resumed his previous speed, and replied indifferently, "I led people to search the entire underground tomb... After driving away the rebels, I will lead people to search again."
Kasha was silent. I don't know how many times I have asked this question, but every time I didn't hear good news. At this time, Virgil suddenly added: "I believe him."
"I believe him too." Kasha's brows relaxed, and she nodded happily and smiled. Although the rebels were also looking for Lanwu, she still firmly believed that Lanwu would never surrender to the rebels. On the contrary, when the God of Grace appears again, New Tristram will surely restore its previous peace and tranquility.
...
At the entrance of the catacombs, a tall crusader waved a huge hammer and shouted at the more than 100 crusaders and monks in front of him: "We don't have much time. Find him, and if you can't convince him to join us, then kill him!"
"We are the saviors!" The crusader suddenly raised the huge hammer above his head and roared.
"We are the saviors!"
More than a hundred people were fanatical, and they raised their weapons and roared. The sky-high fighting spirit spread instantly, carrying them into the catacombs.
