Chapter 286: Li Sen Continues to Attack
Lisen: "Sure enough, what I thought was right. The guy from the other side of the ocean in the west still didn't give up and continued to reach into the Neoland continent."
After a reward was officially issued to a mercenary team, Lisen really didn't want to admit it.
The kind organization that was rumored to have helped several resistance forces and even the Gaomu royal family with industrial technology assistance was the "vest" of the Holy Church.
Lisen really had no way to deal with this.
The Holy Church originally wanted to unify all the humans in the world, even the native indigenous humans on the Neoland continent.
However, now, the Neoland continent is no longer a period of large tracts of wilderness that were undeveloped hundreds of years ago. On this continent, in addition to the two dominant countries, the Orchid Republic and the Negan Empire, there are a total of more than 20 countries, large and small, and even city-state forces.
If Lisen guessed correctly, the current Holy Church actively promoted industrial technology in the name of a kind organization, and its purpose was only one.
To find out more military and political intelligence about the Neoland continent.
After all, the Akitsu Empire failed to complete the Iron Fist Empire's mission, and it also led to the outbreak of a century-long civil war. As a result, since then, the Iron Fist Empire and the Holy Church behind it have no longer been able to continue to infiltrate the Neoland continent, and take the initiative to establish colonial outposts on the Neoland continent.
The reason...
is very simple.
The Holy Church successfully defeated the pig-headed people of the Akitsu Empire because of the unannounced victory of the Orchid Republic, which led to the Iron Fist Empire facing the republican coup d'état launched by the resistance forces of the major vassal states, and even the independence war against the Iron Fist Empire. Therefore, the influence of the church at that time, along with its own assets, has been weakened by numbers that are difficult to calculate.
Of course, until now, according to what Lisen knows, there are some republican forces in the east of the Aisha continent that have destroyed the monarchy controlled by the Holy Church behind the scenes. It's just that these organizations have more or less chosen to surrender to the demons and use the power of the demons to fight.
But unfortunately, once you choose the demons, the consequences are not what you want.
Just the supervisors, the sheep-headed people, are not something that ordinary cultists can survive. What's more, outsiders or ambitious people who simply want to rely on the power of the demons but have no piety?
Anyway, Li Sen is not optimistic about the black-haired dog-headed people who follow the sheep-headed people in the Krurod Empire. Their fate is either to be used as sandbags to fill trenches or to be sent to biochemical reactors as raw materials for bio-electricity generation. It is better to die than to live.
But no matter what, according to the feedback from the mercenaries, the combat capability of the pig-headed people is obviously watered down.
Their army's combat effectiveness is completely different from that of the navy.
None of the mercenaries that Li Sen cooperated with dared to go against the sailors of the pig-headed people.
In addition, most of the naval warships of the Akitsu Empire have quite good performance. Unless they use air bombing or underwater blasting, there will be no good end if they go head-on.
Moreover, Li Sen himself does not want his behavior to bring huge trouble to the country.
He just wanted to earn some money for Jeanna and Jenna, and then buy some clothes for them, and then buy some rice.
After all, the price of rice has risen due to the civil unrest in the Gaomu Kingdom (there have always been underground black market traders in the Gaomu Kingdom who come to the Nigan Empire for bulk purchases, causing the price of rice in the Nigan Empire to remain high). Although Lisen can use wheat as a temporary substitute, that is only for him. Jeanna and Jenna cannot accept such a substitution.
Moreover, more importantly, the quality of rice in the Nigan Empire, especially as a staple food, is richer in nutrition than wheat, and the difficulty of processing and cooking is lower than wheat.
So...
Lisen looked at his two pregnant wives at home, and he wanted to give them delicious food.
But now he thinks seriously, wheat is actually OK.
At least it's cheap.
Unlike the Elsa Continent, where there have been many peasant riots and even armed resistance due to wheat in history, the Nigan Empire is actually a country that produces a lot of wheat.
The only difference is that compared to the love of baking bread in the Elsa Continent, the love of making noodles in the Negan Empire is obvious.
After all, even Li Sen himself has tasted all kinds of noodles in the noodle shops under his own Chamber of Commerce.
Thick noodles, thin noodles, wide noodles.
He thinks these three kinds of soup noodles are the most delicious.
Especially the thin noodles, Li Sen likes them the most.
It’s just a pity that neither Jenna nor Jeanna likes to eat noodles.
On the contrary, his children are the type that likes them very much.
So much so that his eldest daughter with Jenna said that she wanted to be a ramen chef.
Li Sen himself has nothing to say about this.
The problem of taste is probably not something that can be easily solved in any country in the world.
If some things are formed as a habit from childhood, it is really not easy to correct them when you grow up.
Of course, Li Sen thought about it himself, what should be the next action? The employers’ requirement is to kill the designated pig-headed team. Now he has to take more risks if he wants to continue to complete it.
Compared to Lison who was planning behind the scenes, Tianheng, who continued to work hard on the front line, had a bitter look on his face.
Because he finally encountered a guy with a bald head and a floating metal disc on his feet.
The rumored high-level cultist, a ruthless character who can make ordinary people in an entire building become slaves.
If you want to deal with a guy like this, you can't just shoot him with a gun.
The noise is too loud, and the opponent's pursuers are not deaf, and it is impossible for them not to hear the gunshot.
If he didn't wear a special necklace, it is estimated that this bald guy could detect his soul and then surround him with a large group of slaves.
For this reason, Tianheng hid in an abandoned building and checked his Reuters rifle.
He only had one chance.
If he couldn't hit the target or couldn't kill him, then things would be very difficult. Especially since the opponent didn't have that kind of pale white rebound shield, he was very happy.
For this reason, he specially selected a suitable shooting point, and also kept an eye on the patrol routes of the surrounding cultists. Then, he adjusted the optical sight on the rifle, and then prepared a special 10×63mm hunting caseless rifle bullet.
Pull the bolt to load.
Aim.
Bang!
200 meters away, a hairless head exploded.
This kind of assassination is definitely more efficient than walking up and stabbing with a knife, which is why the powerful forces have an absolute advantage over backward countries.
They don't even know how they died.
Of course, Tianheng immediately carried his gun and evacuated, and he was in no mood to see the results of the bald cultist's head blooming. Therefore, according to traditional practice, the sewer is the most convenient escape exit.
But this time Tianheng encountered dogs in the sewer, and some low-level cultists who came out with hunting dogs to hunt him.
When he saw this, Tianheng couldn't help cursing in his heart.
To put it bluntly, as a human born in the eastern part of the Elsa continent, he never had the habit of raising dogs.
Raising dogs is a habit of some people who were defeated by the Iron Fist Empire and became conquered (slaves).
In other words, everyone in the church thinks that raising dogs is an "inferior behavior". However, on the side of the cultists, Tian Heng felt that there was something wrong with the other party's hunting dogs.
The hunting dogs' eyes were red, which was not normal no matter how you looked at it.
Could it be that the cultists used their biotechnology to perform some kind of biochemical transformation on the hunting dogs?
Or are these hunting dogs originally creatures of the demon clan?
Yes.
It's embarrassing to say.
The Holy Church was established more than 1,500 years ago, but the cultists and the real masters behind them - the demon clan - did not know much about the main and most important opponents.
After all, the characters used by the demon clan are not the characters that should exist in this world, and their characters themselves also have magical powers...
