"Look at the shooting accuracy."

"I have a bigger caliber than you."

"Look at how reliable this is, and how secure it makes you feel."

"I have a bigger caliber than you."

Yialos was speechless. "What else can you say besides 'I am more eloquent than you'?"

"My killing radius is also larger than yours. The flying shrapnel might even kill someone randomly."

"You'd better continue with your story." Yialos couldn't hold it in any longer. "Let's change the subject. How come you're back again, and you've got this good stuff with you?" The focus was of course on the "good stuff" at the end. The sourness in his words was simply unstoppable, floating everywhere.

"Actually, we didn't leave at all."

After safely evacuating from the aristocratic area to the slums, Yun Shuo left the boss and his group outside the ELO area and did not force them to go in, changing his previous attitude of claiming that they were members of the ELO organization.

Instead, he laid it out to them directly, saying, "I said you were from ELO before, but that was only because of the situation. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to bring you out directly."

The boss's eyes were fixed on Yun Shuo's pale and handsome face hidden under the hood. It was difficult for her to let down her guard against this man. He had just used such a calm face to shoot and kill the noble lady called "Mina".

"Go back quickly, the days to come will not be peaceful." Yun Shuo didn't say anything else. He just said hello and was about to turn around and leave. He had no intention of recruiting these civilians in front of him.

"Wait," the boss stopped him, "Why are you doing this?"

"Huh?" Yun Shuo turned around and looked at her in confusion.

"Why did you come to rescue us? If you don't recruit us, if you just let us go, then this whole thing won't benefit you, ELO, at all."

The boss has been a businessman for so long, and has also been a "doorman" for the underground entertainment city for so long, how could he not understand the truth that "people should always do things for profit".

Perhaps an ordinary kind-hearted person would do such a thankless task, but the leader of an organization would never do such a useless thing. If so, the decline of the organization would be obvious.

But ELO obviously shouldn't be such an organization. Obviously, they are very powerful, even to the extent that they can really compete with those nobles.

This means that Yun Shuo, as the leader of the organization, should definitely not be a kind-hearted guy, but this is the reality.

Even if he said now that we were members of the ELO organization, since he had just rescued us, most people would not have any objections, and the remaining small group could be completely controlled through herd mentality.

Especially when the leader of these civilians - the boss has become a subordinate of his ELO organization members.

It makes no sense for Yun Shuo to do this; he is giving up the benefits that are within his reach.

Yun Shuo smiled, a smile that he couldn't help but laugh. "When do you need a reason to save someone? You're human. Why not help someone if you can?"

"This does not conflict with letting us join the ELO group." The boss didn't even use the word "force", her attitude was softening.

"You are free. I cannot force you to join us. If so, what would happen even if you joined? We don't even share the same ideals as you. We seek different things and have different goals. How can we be called 'comrades'?"

"But you've made so many plans..."

"Most people are just spectators. Being able to be a citizen of the future and walk in the world of the future is already a great achievement. You and I are both insignificant and our voices are insignificant. We are both just following the path we believe is right. As for who is right, we will leave it to the future to judge."

"And," Yun Shuo said a little embarrassedly, "Actually, this is a misunderstanding. Comrade Yialos was not specially arranged by me. He really likes the atmosphere in your tavern. In fact, we didn't have any plans. We just came to save the situation."

The boss looked incredulous and continued to ask, "What if I'm Yun Shuo's dog?"

"He was also an accident. From what I've seen so far, he really loves drinking and really loves chatting with you."

So, I was just overthinking it, wasn't I? All those conspiracy theories I'd been talking about?

For the first time, the boss realized that she could never think in the way she was used to with a loose organization like ELO, because what they were best at was breaking the rules.

She looked deeply at the young man who looked to be a dozen years younger than her, in his early twenties.

He was really...working sincerely on a career that seemed like a fantasy to everyone else.

She finally thought about it and smiled calmly, "Alright. Since you don't want us directly, I'll apply to join the ELO organization. It only represents me personally and does not involve the free will of others."

The boss winked playfully, as if she had returned to that day a few years ago when she had also held high the banner of "Exemption of Exorbitant Taxes" and walked on the street with the huge crowd around her. But after the gunshot at that time, she seemed to have died as well.

Just like that, I gave up the delusion of "living a clean and decent life" and started to live my life down to earth.

But now, that anger rushed into my heart again, too fiercely, as if carrying with it the resentment and unwillingness accumulated over the years, forcing me almost to tears.

The people behind him didn't leave either. They just stood there, saying in varying voices, "We'll join in too."

Yun Shuo did not agree directly, but said to them: "Go home first. If you are still willing to come tomorrow, we can talk about it later. I will always be here waiting for you."

Willis had always been negative about whether these people would choose to join, so after noon the next day, he persuaded Yun Shuo to go into the wall and stay there honestly.

"After all, they have elderly parents and young children at home. How could they just fight us so easily? Their families are not in our jurisdiction, let alone fighting for their loved ones."

After explaining his reasons, Willis continued, "The sun is so strong, and the war is almost here. What if someone comes to assassinate you? Commander, go back."

"Getting more sun exposure is good for your health. It won't matter if I die, you'll take care of it. I've already promised them, so I'm just waiting. But you, have you completed those strategic deployments? Check them a few more times. Take my dog ​​comrade Yun Shuo with you, he's smart." It seems his name is a little bit not so smart.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade anyone, Willis had no choice but to walk inside muttering.

The wait lasted until evening. Yun Shuo stretched his feet which were numb from sitting. He also felt that the other party would probably not come back. He felt a little guilty at the thought. It seemed as if he was deliberately being lazy.

But just as I packed up my stool and was about to go back to eat, a loud noise came from not far away.

Yun Shuo turned his head and saw a large group of people rushing here with their families in the afterglow of the setting sun. It seemed that they had brought everything they could from their homes and planned to stay in the ELO organization's jurisdiction forever.

The boss was walking alone in front, with not much luggage, just one box.

When she saw Yun Shuo standing at the door carrying a stool, she was also stunned. Her steps suddenly stopped. She and the people behind her looked at each other. Finally, the boss took the initiative to step forward and asked embarrassedly, "You really waited for us outside for a whole day."

Yun Shuo didn't mind at all, and didn't show any sign of being angry. He extended his hand generously, "Welcome to ELO. We'll be comrades from now on."

The boss quickly reached out and shook the other person's hand, shaking it up and down vigorously twice, "Hello, Commander."

From time to time, there were some noisy voices coming from the back, "Hurry up!"

"You say that as if you're so fast."

"I didn't expect him to just wait."

"Most people would know to send a soldier to wait outside and then come out when the person arrives. Who knows?"

"That's why I said the ELO is different. I'm honest."

"Be honest, only then can we live a good life."

After the boss finished shaking hands, the people behind him rushed up and shook Yun Shuo's arms one by one. Even a few young people who had just been rescued and whose injuries had not yet fully healed were trying hard to shake Yun Shuo a few times.

A hundred or so people rushed over, and Yun Shuo's arm was almost broken.

After arranging accommodation, Yun Shuo immediately took his boss and others to get new equipment.

"This thing is called a bazooka, and it will be your equipment from now on. Be careful when using it, it has a high impact and can cause serious damage. From now on, you will be part of the sniper team."

"Wait," the boss asked, "No, Commander, that's not right. This has nothing to do with sniper rifles. How did we join the sniper team?"

"Remember, as long as it has a large caliber, can be scoped, has a long range, and can kill with one shot, it's a sniper." Yun Shuo said with a smile.

Chapter 81: Are you sure this gun works?

"I feel like a major move is coming. At least this Yialos is dead. Guys like that who make promises before going to the battlefield are usually doomed. If he pulls out a photo of his fiancée later, it'll be all over. Not even Jesus can stop him, I say."

Gou Zi was stuck at a plot point, waiting for Yun Shuo to make his final pre-battle speech.

[No, honestly, who still remembers this is a game for women? Is it really possible to make money with all this fighting and killing?]

[Brother, judging from the current situation, although it has failed a bit, Di Chou's ability to make money is still reliable.]

[Shh, don't talk, you'll know by looking at the number of notebooks.]

"Di Chou" not only makes money from women, but also from men. Honestly, I really wonder if it was initially oriented towards women in order to pass the review.

"Why don't you say that the plot went off track halfway through and turned into this weird mess?"

Does anyone know how to exploit this bug and extend my development time? I'm having a firepower shortage. I know the enemy team doesn't have any tanks, but I just want to see if I can stay there and climb the tech tree.

[No, the settings will automatically complete. By the time you have it, the opponent will have it too. The basic setting of ELO is that the weak will beat the strong. However, since it is a free game, there should be a perfect ending.]

【Gouzi, let's see a perfect ending. 】

[That's right, didn't you say you can play? If you have the ability, then go ahead and play one. The basic requirement is that your commander is immortal. How about it?]

"This is hilarious! I can't even protect Yun Shuo? Come on, this is my commander-in-chief. If I can't even protect him, what else can I protect? You all underestimate me. I have one goal: a perfect clearance with one life. Securing the ELO area, not a single piece of my infrastructure can be damaged. Then we'll go straight to Huanglong. A red flag must be raised at the City Lord's Mansion that very day. What Ella? Is she worthy enough to see my commander?"

[Well said, Yun Shuo next door is already dead.]

[After all, it's like the superiors attacking the inferiors, beating the fools. The noble camp quickly occupied most of the territory, including the most important transportation routes in the entire city. Furthermore, with divine power assisting them, it's not surprising that they won.]

Doesn't anyone find this strange? When we were fighting the neighboring faction, there were no civilians. The houses were all empty, like they were newly built. Where did all those people go?

"Games, bro, you're taking this seriously. For the sake of the player experience, isn't it normal to just make the NPC disappear? Have you ever played the game?"

"After all, they're the noble faction, so it's only natural to do this for a better gaming experience. However, I'm also curious. If our faction were included, we'd probably have to worry about the lives of those civilian NPCs. Let's hope there aren't any intentionally annoying NPCs dragging us down."

At this time, Yun Shuo had already walked to the front of the stage.

"Everyone has a red ribbon tied around their arms to distinguish us from the unrelated civilians. Remember, we must never use civilians as our shield. If you are afraid of dying as a member of the ELO organization, then please take it off and live as a civilian who is still oppressed, bullied, and insulted."

"Today, we stand here! Standing on this land where we have lived for generations! Standing on this land where we can no longer survive!"

"In the past, we didn't hold weapons made of iron, but hoes, needles, and thread—the materials for making bread! We worked tirelessly to survive, to have a full meal, working day and night. But what was the reality?"

"Those who till the fields lack food, those who weave thousands of pieces of cloth have no clothes to wear, those who knead the boards lack bread, and the workers who build houses have no roofs to shelter them from the rain!"

"And what about the wealthy and powerful? They eat our food, wear our cloth, and even live in our houses! They get all this without spending a penny! And it's not enough! They even demand taxes from us!"

"Standing before me are all the persecuted classes. Behind me, facing the God of Machinery, Mani. She gave us all equal births in this city, but those powerful people have divided us into different classes! Simply to exploit us!"

"The powerful have been riding on our necks and bullying us for thousands of years!"

"We tried to protest, we held demonstrations and shouted, we expressed our strong indignation and protest against them! But what was the result? Ruthless killing, bloodshed, and ridicule!"

"We don't deserve this. We're fighting for ourselves in a legitimate and reasonable way! But this is all we get! Why? Because a class that only knows how to protest and talk is useless!"

"Why do those powerful people dare to treat us like this? Because they have noble blood? No! It's because they have military power!"

"It has always been like this. The powerful can persecute us however they want! They can ride on our necks and trample us under their feet! Even the weakest of the powerful can easily trample on us, and all we can do is cry out!"

"It's always been like this. They're invincible, and we're weak and vulnerable! But, it's always been like this, isn't it?"

"We should use the deafening sound of our weapons to make the enemy tremble! We should let them know that we are not a group of cowards who only know how to protest!"

"We don't fight for slavery! We fight for freedom! We are not machines, not beasts of burden, we are human beings!"

"We unite in the name of freedom! Fighting for a new, equal world!"

"This is our current mission. We can and must complete this mission. We have only one way out, and that is victory! Of course, we also have another way out, and that is death."

Dog DNA immediately stood up, standing in the crowd and shouting, "But death does not belong to the working class!"

"Yes, death does not belong to us, nor to the working class!" Yun Shuo's eyes were fixed on the red flag fluttering in the wind not far away.

“Only with victory can we achieve equality! Only with victory can we walk proudly in the sun with our chests held high!”

"Our mission is correct, and victory will surely belong to us!"

"Long live the working class! Long live freedom and equality!"

Everyone present had been waiting for all of this for far too long. It wasn't that they weren't afraid of war, or of getting hurt, or of dying, but it was that they were too afraid, and they had been afraid for far too long.

They had all seen with their own eyes the bodies of people who had starved to death on the roadside rotting bit by bit in the sun, and watched maggots and flies gradually cover the flesh.

They also saw with their own eyes the remains of people who were randomly beaten and disabled, wriggling in the streets, and watched that person breathe his last bit by bit, especially in the snow, when that person could crawl for more than ten meters, leaving a long trail of blood.

They even suffocated their own children to death simply because the food stored at home was not enough for one more person to survive.

They watched with their own eyes as the only teacher in the entire civilian area was kicked to death by several soldiers for fun, simply because the teacher tried to protect a child.

They have suffered hardships, worked hard, gone hungry, and seen the last belongings in their homes being mortgaged for taxes.

When the rationing system came into effect, some people even thought that their good days might be coming, but soon they found that they could not get ration tickets at all.

Because those tickets need to be exchanged for much more food.

They didn't know what kind of organization ELO was, and they initially thought ELO might not be a good thing, but they had no choice but to escape here.

And now, they are standing here, the only place in the world where they can have enough food and clothing, the only place where they can live like human beings.

Their commander said that he wanted to overthrow the powerful class, he wanted to let more people live a good life, and he wanted to make their good life longer and more solid.

How could they not agree?

If ELO lost, they would have died. But they were going to die anyway, and it was the ELO organization and the commander who kept them alive, allowing them to live this god-like life at the end of their lives.

They were willing to die.

The barrage also howled together.
