925 Chapter 168
At the base square.
Li Hao walked out. It was already dark.
This was the first day that hou Xiaochen and the others had left.
The demon hunt squad was still training, and these people were all working very hard. Perhaps it was out of habit, or perhaps it was because they had witnessed Li Hao's strength, and wanted to become stronger.
Be it swords gate or the inspector, these people were all of low status.
There were orphans, ordinary people in society, and people who had accidentally come into contact with martial arts. They all came from the bottom. Other than Hong Qing, no one else had a high status. Even Hong Qing did not feel anything special.
Because, growing up in swords gate, other than Hong Yitang's love for her, there was nothing special about her.
She still had to do the laundry and cook for herself.
She wasn't the heiress of a rich family as everyone had imagined. Thus, she didn't stop her daily cultivation tasks even though she had recently comprehended Shi.
As Li Hao walked over, everyone stopped what they were doing.
Li Hao glanced at the crowd, thought for a moment, and said,""By staying here, we've accepted a mission to strengthen our coastal defense! "Pirates are the enemies we need to face. You may not know much about Pirates ..."
Before he could finish his words, a swords gate disciple in the crowd suddenly gritted his teeth and said,""I know Pirates! I'm from the North Sea, and the North Sea was once invaded by Pirates. They committed all kinds of evil, such as burning, killing, plundering, massacring cities and clans, and killing for fun! They were all animals among animals! Before I entered the swords gate, the city I was in was completely destroyed by the Pirates, leaving only a few elderly, women, and children who managed to survive ...."
Li Hao didn't expect to encounter any survivors that had been invaded by Pirates.
He was slightly surprised, but he also knew that he was probably an orphan taken in by Hong Yitang from the North Sea. Now, he had grown up and become a Martial Master.
The young man gritted his teeth and said,"Captain, I'll be the first to register to kill Pirates!" "But ... I know how brutal and inhumane Pirates can be. Silver Moon doesn't have many coastal areas, and they're always guarded by the Wei Wu Army, so they don't have a deep understanding of Pirates. If Captain wants to face the Pirates, you have to be careful. Also ... You have to be careful of Pirates threatening us ..."
Li Hao was confused."What threat?"
"A city-wide massacre threat!"
The young man gritted his teeth and said,"don't compromise!" Back then, the city I was in also had a superpower, but the pirate leader threatened the city's supers. If they surrendered, he would only take their belongings, and if they resisted, he would destroy the city! In the end, the supers in the city felt that they were no match for them ... And chose to compromise ... In the end ... They all died, not a single one was left alive!"
Li Hao was stunned."How can we compromise in front of a great enemy ..."
The young man was depressed."Yes, but ... In the face of the brutal and powerful Pirates, everyone is still afraid. They don't dare to risk their lives and hope that they will leave after taking their belongings. After all, killing people is useless to them. They don't have many superpowers and are just ordinary people. What's the point of killing them?"
This was also what many people were thinking."I'm not a threat to you, and I don't have any money, so why would you kill me?"
But ... Would a reasonable and humane pirate still be a Bandit?
It was just killing for fun!
They only wanted to see your despair and painful wails, and that was enough.
"But, Captain, Pirates are a bunch of beasts. They don't care about this. Their superpowers will even research all kinds of killing methods to kill ordinary people. They will roast, freeze, bury, crack the Ice and Fire, cut open the intestines and stomach ..."
The more the young man spoke, the more agitated he became. He was extremely angry."These animals won't stop because of your screams. They'll only get more and more excited! "They just kill for fun, not for cultivation or treasures. In most cities, the only things that are useful to them are food, clothes, and daily necessities. If they really want these, people will give them, but they also want women ... When that time comes, there will actually be ... Actually be people willing to contribute ..."
Li Hao frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.
The young man continued,"but they are not satisfied with this. They are cruel in their bones!" My sister was only five years old at that time ... They ..."
The young man gritted his teeth and did not continue.
"What's your name?"Li Hao asked.
He didn't try to hide it. He really didn't remember this person's name. When he first came, he seemed to be only in the ten-realm, but Li Hao remembered quite a few people who had broken through 100. At the time, he didn't pay much attention to the ten-realm.
"Hong Chou!"
Li Hao glanced at him. Hong, Hong Yitang's Hong.
Enmity ... The enmity of losing one's family?
Li Hao didn't say anything. He simply nodded and continued,""Because the Pirates might attack, I want to enter the sea to observe and get used to the sea battle. Everyone is unfamiliar with the sea, and it's difficult to fight in the sea with a hundred martial masters. But no matter what, since we've accepted the mission, do you think we should go and take a look?"
Everyone looked at each other. Soon, Hong Qing said,""Of course we're going! Captain, disciples of swords gate, since you have joined a demon hunt squad, you naturally won't back down!"
In the distance, Wang Henggang's nephew, the burly Wang Chao, also said in a muffled voice,"Those who come from the inspection Office are not afraid of death. If they are afraid of death, they won't eat a bowl of rice from the inspection Office!"
At this time, Liu Long opened his mouth,"we're all demon hunt squad members now, there's no need to be so clear about it."
