Chapter 827: The Road Meets Orion

Qi Li'er's words were immediately agreed by Caroline and Modès, and when Lecius saw that the three of them actually had such an opinion, he said helplessly: "Hey, it seems that you are really not optimistic about me, in fact, I am also very powerful, even if the demon clan has a demon emperor, it may not be my opponent." ”

Hearing Lucius's words, Caroline suddenly caught a trace of strangeness in Lucius's words, approached Lucius step by step, stared at Lucius and suddenly asked, "You seem to be going to Southern Xinjiang, not to see the Demon Emperor, right?"

Qilier and Modès were a little surprised when they heard this, and quickly looked at Lucius with a puzzled face, as if they wanted to see something from Lucius's face.

However, before the two of them could see anything, Lucius had already spoken first: "Hehe, yes, the real purpose of my trip to Southern Xinjiang is not to meet the Demon Emperor, I want to use those iron mines in Southern Xinjiang to build my own processing workshop in the East." ”

"What? You, are you going to build your workshop in the place of the demon clan?" Lucius's plan really startled Caroline, Modès, and Gilli.

Lecius's workshop, that is the real killer feature of Lecius, it can be said that since leaving Brenos, he has never mentioned the matter of rebuilding the workshop, let alone building a workshop, and even many people are about to forget his workshop.

Even when he was in the Caohai Plain, he had never built a workshop of his own, and almost all of his qiē machinery manufacturing and processing since he was on the road were completed in the workshop inside that battleship.

But everyone knows very well that his workshop is his killer weapon, and only by building his workshop can it be said that Lucius will show all his strength, and he will process all kinds of war machinery in the workshop to support his war needs.

Originally arrived in the East. Everyone thought that he would build a processing workshop, but Lucius never mentioned it, and even in that prosperous Chang'an City, where he could almost buy a qiē of raw materials, Lucius still did not build his own processing workshop.

Caroline, Modès, and Kirille, among others, thought that he might not build a workshop, but would use the one on the ship to replace it for the time being.

It was only at this moment that Caroline, Modès, and Kirilla finally understood that it was not that Lucius had no intention of building a workshop, but that he had been choosing the right place.

Lucius saw the three men look surprised. He smiled and said, "Hehe, you don't have to be surprised, in fact, I am willing to build a processing workshop in southern Xinjiang, because there are several iron mines in southern Xinjiang that are very rich, so I plan to build a processing workshop near those iron mines." ”

Qi Li'er asked a little puzzled: "Is that really okay? Will those demon clans in southern Xinjiang let you build a workshop? Southern Xinjiang is the territory of those demon clans." ”

Lucius grinned and said, "Hehe, what's not to do? As long as we see the Demon Emperor, I believe that with my three-inch tongue, I will definitely be able to convince the Demon Emperor." ”

Modès then seemed to think of something, and couldn't help but exclaim, "I know." I see, you're planning to make the demons the workers in your workshop? You're trying to squeeze their cheap labor? You, you're too bold. ”

"Hey, hey. How do you speak? What do you mean that I plan to squeeze the cheap labor of the demon clan? Am I going to bring them some new scientific and technological revolution? It can relieve their labor pressure, and it can also solve the employment problem of those idle people of the demon clan, which can be described as a great thing with one stone. ”

Whether it was Caroline and Modesse, or Kirilla, they were shocked by Lucius's words at this moment. They never imagined that Lucius would have such a bold idea.

Seeing their stunned looks, Lucius said disapprovingly, "Why are you so surprised? It will be very difficult, but when you do it, then you will not find it difficult. ”

Seeing that Lucius was in his chest, the three girls could only nod helplessly, since they had followed Lucius to Jiangnan, they could only continue with their heads.

For the rest of the journey, Lucius and the others spent their time in a mechanical carriage, and they didn't encounter many demon soldiers along the way, let alone see any signs of the demon army stationed.

After traveling south of the Tianjiang River for several days, Lucius finally stopped the carriage, walked out of the carriage, looked around and said to himself with some confusion: "This seems to be a little wrong, why haven't you seen the army of the demon clan all this time?

Caroline, Modès, and Gille stepped out of the carriage, and the three girls were a little puzzled, as if their trip shouldn't have been so smooth and peaceful.

Qi Li'er whispered, "Could it be, could it be that those demon clans knew about our arrival, so they hid somewhere and planned to give us a fatal blow, and they would arrest us all in one fell swoop?"

"Well, I don't rule out this possibility, but where are they going to ambush us? We have all walked south of the Tianjiang River for so many days, and we have not even seen the shadow of a demon clan, and the entire Jiangnan seems to have become a wilderness and clearing. ”

At this time, Caroline suddenly said: "I'll just say, we should go to a few big cities in the south to have a look, look at those big cities, maybe we can find the answer, even if we can't find the answer, we can still find someone to understand the situation, right?"

Hearing this, Modès immediately scoffed: "Are you crazy? Isn't it equivalent to sending us to death if we swagger to the big city like this? Have you ever thought that those big cities may have been occupied by the demon clan, and if we enter the city like this, I am afraid that we will be besieged by the demon clan immediately." ”

Modès's sneer immediately made Caroline feel annoyed, Caroline took two steps forward After all, Modès asked: "Who do you say is crazy? Hmph, I'm just a builder, why do you say I'm crazy?"

Seeing that Caroline and Modès seemed to be about to fight, Lucius said helplessly: "Okay, don't quarrel here, we still have to hurry?"

Lucius's shouting was able to stop the quarrel between the two people immediately, and Qilier saw the two sabre-rattling people, as well as the cold-faced Lucius, approached Lucius a little timidly, and whispered: "Lucius, there seems to be a village ahead, we, should we go and see?"

"Village?" Lucius looked up, and soon saw smoke curling in front of him, apparently a village cooking in the evening.

Lucius lowered his head and thought about it, and felt that it seemed really unsafe to rush in, so he simply asked No. 3 and No. 4 to explore the road first and find out the situation in that village.

Before the third and fourth were dispatched, Lucius suddenly felt a sound of footsteps in the forest where several people were, so he immediately beckoned several people to hide and want to see what the footsteps in the forest were coming from.

As soon as Lucius and the others hid, they saw a few guys dressed in animal skins, creeping out of the nearby woods.

One of the middle-aged men looked around, looked at the place where Lucius was originally standing, and said, "Strange, I obviously felt that there should be someone in this place just now, why couldn't I suddenly find it?"

As soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, he heard a young boy next to him, who looked like a child, also wearing animal skin clothes and holding a bow and crossbow, said: "Uncle, come and see, there are still footprints here, and there are traces of ruts, which should have been left by those people just now." ”

The middle-aged man approached where Lucius had stopped before, lowered his head to carefully observe the footprints and rut marks, and suddenly the middle-aged man pulled the boy back and retreated a few steps sharply, while shouting: "Xiao Mang, be careful." ”

But although the middle-aged man's reaction was fast, it was still no faster than No. 3 and No. 4, who rushed out almost instantly, and pounced directly on the group of people in animal skin clothes.

After receiving Lucius's order, No. 3 and No. 4 shot mercilessly, and the group of people who found Lucius's traces were all put to the ground by No. 3 and No. 4 in the blink of an eye, and even the boy was subdued, it can be said that this group of people in the hands of No. 3 and No. 4 had no room to fight back at all.

Lecius looked at the group of people who had been caught, turned to Caroline, Modès, and Kirille, and said, "How is it? Do you want to go with me and ask about the situation?"

Qi Li'er whispered with some concern: "They, they seem to be just a group of ordinary hunters, isn't it too much for you to restrain them all like this?"

Without Lucius opening his mouth, Modès opened her mouth and said to Qi Li'er: "Qi Li'er, you are so kind, you must know that we are now in the enemy's place, this place has been occupied by the demon clan, those guys who seem to be kind-faced, maybe they are the demon clan transformation." ”

Modes's words made Qi Lier sober up, and the original sympathy in her heart disappeared suddenly, and she apologized to Lucius: "I'm sorry Lucius, I, I didn't mean to be been." ”

Lucius didn't care, just waved his hand and said, "It's okay, everyone needs to grow, Qi Li'er, I hope you can grow up through this experience, after all, your kindness may sometimes become your fatal wound." ”

After that, Lucius didn't care whether the three girls were going with him or not, so he strode towards the group of people who were subdued, looking like he was going to ask those people, such as what the situation was like south of the river today, and did those demon clans completely control the entire south?

These questions were something that Lucius urgently needed to know now, so Lucius's face didn't look so friendly, and he could even say that he was a little vicious. (To be continued......)
