Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 212: Mortals in the Fight between Gods

At the temporary terminus of the magic train, a former noble territory near the Golden Ear Plains, many escaped Doug Army soldiers were bragging to the adventurers in the tavern.

"I saw it clearly at the time. The demon commander exploded for some reason. The black flesh inside expanded and expanded until it became as big as a mountain!"

After saying this, the Doug Army soldier took a big gulp of beer.

"It's fake, right? If it's really as big as you say, then we can all see it here, right?"

The adventurers around were speechless. If the size reported by the Doug Army soldier was true, then they could even see the mountain-like demon monster in the Golden Spike Plain directly from this territory.

"Oh, how could I have seen it falsely? Later, more and more demons turned into monsters and poured into the battlefield. Many humans were also turned into other monsters by the black saliva sprayed by the monster."

"Although I fought desperately, my musket had run out of bullets, my knife had a blunt blade, and I even killed two monsters with my bare hands, but there were too many monsters. In the end, I had no choice but to escape."

It can be seen that after being away from Noam, the impact of those monsters on human spirit disappeared. At least this Doug Army soldier looked very energetic and told his heroic stories vividly.

"But didn't you say before that when the flesh comes into contact with those mud monsters, it will be contaminated by the mud and assimilated? Then how did you defeat these mud monsters with your fists?"

The adventurers had actually already heard that this Doug Army soldier was bragging, and he was not the first Doug Army soldier to brag in the tavern. However, if they wanted to understand what exactly happened in the Golden Spike Plains, the words of these Doug Army soldiers were undoubtedly very valuable for reference.

"Oh, don't worry about these details."

The Doug Army soldier was just about to take another sip of beer, ready to add a beautiful heroine to his story, and even thought of the scene of the encounter, but he found that the beer in the glass had been finished.

"Where's the wine? If you want to listen, refill it!"

But no one at the scene was willing to refill the cup of the Doug Army soldier, because his stories were getting more and more outrageous, all about how bravely he killed the enemies, and there was less and less useful information.

"cut!"

The soldier of Doug's army slammed the cup down heavily. From his burned red face, it can be seen that he is a little drunk.

"You won't refill my cup, right? If the monsters from the demon tribe come to kill us, don't blame me for not reminding you what to do! If it's up to you, your gray-collar army is almost finished and will lose. We'll all turn into monsters. It's better to surrender to the demon tribe as soon as possible. Maybe you can even get a job!"

At this time, the owner of the tavern finally came up and gave the soldier another glass of beer, saying, "Tell me more!"

"Humph! We escaped. Oh no, when I fought my way out, the Gray Collar's army was already in a state of collapse. The artillery was completely useless. Those demon monsters could fully recover by eating the corpses. If I hadn't led my brothers to fight to the death, the Gray Collar's army might have collapsed even faster!"

Then, the Doug Army soldier started bragging again, but at least he did tell the adventurers some useful information.

The adventurers in the tavern are all experienced veterans who can easily distinguish what is true and what is false from the words of the Doug Army soldiers.

Judging from the descriptions of the Doug Army soldiers who escaped recently, the Golden Spike Plains may indeed be unable to hold out. Many people have begun to consider the future: should they escape or join the demon clan?

But there are also many adventurers who don't care much and just want to go back to the old days. After all, under the rule of gray-collar workers, more than half of the commissions in the tavern guild have been reduced, and the remaining ones are all commissions such as lost property recovery, leaving some adventurers to find ways to make a legitimate living.

This is not risky at all.

At this moment, an adventurer rushed into the tavern in a panic and shouted, "It's coming! It's coming! The magic train is coming!"

Everyone in the tavern stood up and ran to the station under construction to see what was going on.

In fact, although this territory is the last stop of the magic train, few people in the territory have seen the magic train, because this last stop has not been completely repaired. The railway has only been paved so that the magic train can reach here, and the materials are all transported from the previous stop.

On the other side, the nobles in the territory were gathering together to discuss important matters.

The information obtained by the nobles was much more accurate than that of the adventurers. After all, since the beginning of the war, nobles from all sides had sent many spies to the Golden Ear Plains.

"Even that grey-collared man has been defeated, why don't we just join the demon clan!"

"And to make things even more serious, how about we just blow up the Governor's railway as well?"

As soon as these nobles finished speaking, another noble who opposed them said, "If we lose, we will still be white-collar workers. Wouldn't it be easy to control us? If we can't defeat the demons, will we take it out on you?"

"Humph, maybe there won't be any more gray collars after the battle, and we can just offer the land to the demons."

Then, while these nobles were still arguing, a servant ran over in a panic and said, "Sir, the Governor is here."

"What? So fast?"

These days, these nobles have been discussing the battle situation in the Golden Ear Plains, and whether or not they should rebel and directly join the demon clan. After all, they surrendered very quickly, and the Gray and White Collars were busy with the decisive battle. They had planned to come back to deal with these nobles after the battle, but they didn't expect to be dragged into the Golden Ear Plains.

As a result, the strength of these nobles was preserved relatively intact, which made these nobles become disloyal.

But these nobles did not expect that the gray-collar workers would act so quickly and the railway transportation speed would be so fast. These nobles hurriedly ran to the station to prepare to welcome Lind.

By the time these nobles arrived at the station which had not yet been built, there were already quite a few adventurers surrounding them.

The whistle of the magic train sounded like the roar of a steel behemoth, causing everyone to take a step back. When the train stopped at the station, many people couldn't help swallowing their saliva as they looked at this real steel behemoth. Some people felt scared, while others were more curious.

The doors of the train opened at the same time, and countless fully armed soldiers and knights jumped off the train in unison.

Among them were nuns wearing blood-soaked uniforms.

At first, the Doug Army soldier who had been bragging in the tavern was still saying that this magic train was nothing compared to the monsters of the demon clan. But when they saw the soldiers constantly pouring out of the train, everyone, including this Doug Army soldier, unconsciously kept backing away to make room for these soldiers.

Even though they had been ordered by local temporary officials to retreat to a safe distance.

Linde and Lena were surrounded by guards and walked off the train.

Lind, who was wearing a black military uniform, did not say anything. He simply glanced around at the crowd who seemed to want to watch the fun.

But even with just a simple sweep, the Doug soldier who had been bragging about how brave he was on the battlefield fell to the ground in fear. Maybe it was because he had drunk too much before, his crotch kept turning yellow. He was not a real soldier, but was recruited by Doug with money, and escaped from the battlefield purely by luck.

Although it was the first time they met, these nobles immediately recognized Lind and came forward to salute.

Before the nobles could even bend down, Lucanus announced loudly: "From now on, all surrounding territories will be placed under military control. All affairs will be managed by the Governor-General. All nobles must stay at home and are not allowed to go out at will."

Seeing the scene, beads of sweat dripped from the heads of the nobles, especially the nobles who had just said they wanted to surrender to the demon clan, now they felt a little confused.

The few soldiers and professionals he had might not even be enough to fill the other side's teeth.

Only then did these nobles realize that when gods fight, mortals simply have no power or space to sit on the fence.
