Chapter 356: Pacification
The towns built by the rebels were in chaos.
They all followed the instructions of their respective leaders to rest and recuperate. But I never thought that a huge, super powerful skeleton would suddenly break into the town and start killing people.
House after house was turned into ruins by the powerful sword light. All professionals who believed in their own strength tried to stop this skeleton, but in the end they were killed ruthlessly and turned into a corpse lying in the ruins.
Others panicked and scrambled to escape the town. Those professionals are quite calm. They knew that this rebellion had completely broken New Tristram, and that there was no possibility of reconciliation. So they fled the town and fled to other places together. But those civilians who were tempted to join the rebels were frightened stupidly by endless fear.
They escaped from the town and did not follow the fleeing professionals to escape elsewhere, nor could they follow them. When the first civilian who subconsciously fled to New Tristram appeared, more and more civilians blindly followed the large army and fled to New Tristram.
The two towns are not far apart, only about thirty miles. Here, the Skeleton King accepted Lan Wu's commission and came to bulldoze the rebel town. Over there, New Tristram soon discovered the changes here.
The news was quickly reported. After a short discussion among Akara and other title heirs, Kasha finally led the people to guard the place to guard against possible sneak attacks by the rebels. But at the end, a large group of frightened civilians arrived.
Kasha's face turned gloomy when he saw a large group of civilians fleeing in panic. When faced with other people, she often angrily denounces these civilians who defected to the rebels as traitors to humanity, and wants to tear them into pieces. But seeing these panicked civilians with her own eyes, she hesitated.
After all, we are all human beings.
Now Lugoin and the seaport of Kurast have been destroyed by demons, and the demon fortress and Harrogath are too far apart to find out the news. For now, everyone here can be said to be the last group of humans. The number of civilians who defected to the rebels only accounted for 20% of all civilians, but after all, they were still thousands of people.
"Lord Kasha, we..." At this time, a Crusader next to him asked softly, with hesitation written on his face.
"Kill them, leave no one behind." Before Kasha could respond, Virgil strode over from behind. He was originally stationed at the entrance of the underground tomb to prevent other rebels from sneaking into the tomb and interfering with the actions of Lan Wu and others. The sudden appearance of the Skeleton King informed him that Lan Wu and others were capturing the last rebel leader Luhadi. So he left some of his men to continue garrisoning to prevent Ruhadi from escaping. And he rushed back with the others.
First, bring back the news that the Skeleton King is Lan Wu's helper. Secondly, he wanted to persuade Kasha and other title heirs to take advantage of the Skeleton King's bulldozing of the rebel towns to go out in large numbers to wipe out the remaining rebels and completely put down the rebellion.
Kasha's expression changed slightly when he heard Virgil's merciless voice, and then his expression became firm. Yes, to put it mildly, these civilians were seduced by the rebels and then defected to the rebels. To put it bluntly, they are scum who refuse to accept reality. Originally, even a beggar from Lu Gaoyin dared to despise the Rogge camp. Now I want to live in peace with the people in Rogge camp. These Lugaoyin people who live in the past and cannot forget the pride of the past will only be a major hidden danger if they stay.
Time can heal any wound, but it cannot wake up those who are addicted to the past. Today I felt soft and accepted them again. When one of them becomes ambitious, another turmoil will ensue. Humanity today cannot afford this kind of loss. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. In troubled times, using heavy codes to completely kill these people can bring longer peace to New Tristram.
"Kill, leave no one alive." Kasha took a deep breath of the cold air and gave the order expressionlessly.
The others hesitated for a moment. When they saw Virgil jumping off the temporary wooden wall first and rushing towards the panicked civilians, their last bit of pity turned into fighting spirit.
The nearly two thousand surviving civilians could not last more than ten minutes in front of more than a thousand professionals led by Virgil. When the last civilian was chopped to the ground, Virgil wiped the blood on his face and coldly ordered to set off immediately to eliminate the remaining rebels.
When the army arrived at the rebel town, everyone saw the Skeleton King wreaking havoc in the ruins of the town and nervously grabbed their weapons. Upon seeing this, Virgil immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Brave warriors, have you seen that skeleton? It is a follower conquered by Lord Divine Benefactor. It accepted the commission from Lord Divine Benefactor to help us eliminate those damn traitors ”
Everyone was stunned. Everyone saw Skeleton King's bravery. Unexpectedly, such a powerful undead creature was also a follower of the benefactor.
After a brief period of confusion, everyone suddenly became high-spirited and rushed over energetically. The Skeleton King heard the noise coming from behind and turned around to see that Vergil was bringing people for reinforcements. The soul fire in his eyes suddenly rose and he raised his giant sword high: "For the sake of peace, kill them all."
"Kill them all!"
Everyone responded to the Skeleton King's call. According to past training habits, a team of five to ten people spread out to search for the escaped rebels.
The killing continues. More and more rebels are being found. There is always a battle going on in the land of Tristram. Some people died in battle, some surrendered, and many more stubbornly resisted, trying to carve out a bloody way to escape.
As Skeleton King destroyed the rebel town and joined Dao in chasing the rebels, the battle gradually shifted towards Vergil and others. Although the number of rebels is not low, at least more than twice that of Virgil and others, they are no longer interested in fighting and have no morale. They continue to resist with only their bravery. When the Skeleton King joined, it was like a mountain range pressing on the camel, and he was instantly destroyed by the Skeleton King and the professionals of New Tristram.
The final crackdown lasted three days and three nights. Virgil and other professionals did not rest. This is the final battle. When the purge is over, New Tristram will have a bright future. More than 30,000 new professionals are training hard. After a year or two of recuperation, humans will regain the strength to fight against the devil.
The last rebels failed to escape from this closed space that was completely separated from the world. The only entrance is held by New Tristram, and they have no ability to break through New Tristram's defense.
When the last rebel died tragically under Virgil's flail, everyone collapsed to the ground from exhaustion. What supported their non-stop fighting for three days and three nights was hope for the future. Now that the rebels had been completely wiped out, they finally let go of their sighs, and endless fatigue suddenly surged into their hearts. Within a few minutes, more and more professionals fell asleep.
Virgil's cold eyes glanced at these warriors who were too tired to even return to the town, and there was a touch of warmth on his face.
Finally, the benefactor was not disappointed.
