Chapter 18 Success and Failure
"Asshole, what are you talking about?"
The first one to speak was Kurusu. He loyally supported Sifangchuan and Iris and could not tolerate anyone robbing things belonging to the Sifangchuan family.
Now that Xianjin Station has fallen, the most important thing is Jiatiecheng, which must belong to Lord Changpu.
"Don't talk nonsense, Calamus treats everyone like his own relatives, and is definitely the best master in Iron City." Xia Ya also said.
He wanted to control the Iron City, but he didn't want to control it directly. He wanted to control it through Acorus.
In this way, those who follow Calamus and those who worship him will not disobey his orders.
If we seize power directly from Chang Pu, there may be loyal ministers of the Sifangchuan family doing something secretly, which will be very troublesome.
The Sifangchuan family has protected these people in Xianjinyi for so many years, so they must have great prestige and there will be many loyal ministers.
After all, he doesn't want to make a career here and will leave after a while, so there is no need to expend such effort.
But Xia Ya refused, but Acorus fell into thinking. After a while, she slowly said, "I also think you can lead everyone to a better future. I will leave the Iron City to you. Xia Ya, please
Be sure not to refuse."
As Acorus said, he handed the keys he took back from those people to Xia Ya again, his eyes serious and firm.
"Calamus, you are the most suitable..."
Before he finished speaking, Acorus rushed to say: "Char, aren't you willing to continue to protect the Iron City? Are you going to leave us?"
"of course not!"
Once the mission time is up, I should get out, but that is beyond my control.
"I think everyone is worried that you will leave us one day. If you become the master of Iron Castle, then everyone will have hope for the future and will not be afraid that you will abandon them. For everyone's sake, please accept it."
Calamus's attitude was so sincere that no one could refuse.
"Lord Char, please accept it. We believe in Lord Changpu's choice." The warriors also spoke one after another.
Now that Lord Iris has made his choice, the warriors no longer hesitate.
In their hearts, Calamus is an innocent little girl with no scheming intentions. Since she made this choice, it means that she is sincere and there is no need to worry about retaliation for going along with it.
Moreover, Acorus is not suitable to control the Iron Castle, she is too opinionated.
Of course, this is also true.
After Xia Ya repeatedly declined, she finally accepted.
Now most people agree with him to accept it, which is already very good. If there is anyone who is disobedient in the future, it would be nice to take Calamus with him to give orders.
If you are not obedient, just kick him out of the samurai ranks and let him become a commoner.
Char took over the Iron Castle and didn't change anything. He just took the power of the samurai into his own hands, which was an important force in maintaining the stability of the Iron Castle.
As long as the warriors are in hand, even if others have some ideas, they can't make waves.
[You have triggered the mission: Lord of the Iron Castle
Mission description: As the master of the Iron Castle, you must be responsible for your subjects and find a safe post for them to avoid Kabane.
Task reward: Depending on the degree of completion, the settlement evaluation will be increased. Accepting this task will slightly increase the settlement evaluation.
Whether to accept】
Of course I accepted it, there is nothing to say.
But what surprised him was that as long as he accepted it, the settlement evaluation could be slightly improved, which was very rare.
But find them a safe post?
Xia Ya remembered that even their current destination, Konganguo and Jiatiecheng, only stayed for half a year before leaving. Is it considered a safe place?
While he was still thinking, several warriors came over with three wounded men.
"Lord Char, they were bitten by Kabane, please save them."
"Ikoma, help quickly!"
Ikoma immediately ran over, "Sir, three people are too many. Let them suppress the spread of the Kabane virus first, and then perform operations one by one."
Xia Ya nodded and looked at their wounds. They were all bitten on the wrists.
This makes people confused. They didn't go out inside the Iron Castle. To attack Kabane outside, they only had to stick out the muzzle of the gun. Why were their wrists bitten?
Xia Ya had some guesses, but still asked people to make preparations quickly.
"Xia Ya, can I take a look together?" Calamus asked softly.
Char nodded in agreement. After he took over the Iron City, the warriors' mobility improved a lot and they were quickly ready.
"The surgery is not complicated, but if you do it yourself, problems may arise, so this method cannot be leaked."
Before the operation started, Xia Ya said to the three people who were bitten.
"We understand!" The three of them replied quickly, and Calamus nodded slightly.
"Also, the operation is very painful, beyond your imagination." Xia Ya continued, "Of course, there is no other way now. Even if you regret it, it is too late."
With Ikoma and Sachiko here, Char didn't have to do anything himself, and stood by and watched with Iris.
The operation started soon, and it could be seen that Ikoma also tinkered with a set of equipment in the car. Although it was very rudimentary, it was much better than when he operated on Sachiko before.
The first person lay down and untied the cloth strips tied to his arms. The infection in Kabane spread rapidly.
Ikoma seized the opportunity and started quickly.
I saw that the man was shaking all over, the blood vessels on his forehead and neck were bulging, and his limbs were constantly struggling. It was very scary.
Calamus looked at this scene with a hint of fear in her eyes, her delicate body trembled, and she involuntarily moved closer to Xia Ya.
Xia Ya's eyes flashed, she reached out and grabbed Calamus's soft little hand, giving her a reassuring look.
The operation was still going on, and the samurai who underwent the operation had been reduced to human form by the pain, but the operation was not over yet.
After a minute, the samurai's condition finally stabilized, and Ikoma let go of him.
The warrior fell to his knees on the ground, his body weak, breathing heavily, sweat dripping from his head like rain.
"Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Sir Char!" The warrior bowed solemnly.
"does it worth?"
"It's worth it!" He squeezed his palms and said loudly, his eyes extremely determined. Only in this way can he take revenge.
Moreover, he has nothing left to remember about people, and now he just wants to kill Kabane.
Xia Ya nodded, "Next, let's start!"
Ten minutes later, the carriage door opened, and Xia Ya led the people out. Looking at the expectant people, he nodded slightly, "The good news is that we have two more companions who can fight Kabane head-on."
"Isn't there three?" someone asked in surprise.
"The bad news is that one person's operation was unsuccessful and he became Kabane and left us forever."
Char looked around expressionlessly, "Here, I would like to warn other people who want to become Kabaneri. The operation is very risky and extremely painful. Please do not take the initiative to get infected with Kabaneri."
"That's right, it's very painful. It's like countless knives are cutting your body, cutting all your flesh and blood, leaving only a pair of bones."
The warrior stood up and said, thinking of the previous pain, they were still frightened.
