Chapter 498: Sure enough, the upper-level characters are all excellent actors!

After entering the city, the soldiers responsible for leading them found a few people to set up a tent for them. Pu Yunchuan found that these people were indeed very enthusiastic about the newcomers coming outside, and they had the same smell as meeting fellow villagers at the construction site...

The tent area is very crowded and dense. At first glance, I am afraid there are not tens of thousands of tents. Pu Yunchuan noticed that the soldiers living here are more or less mutated signs...

After the two of them settled in the evening, the soldiers who led the way brought them some food and hot water in the morning. Their attitude was obviously very different from those of the normal residents who looked at them from afar along the way...

After the soldiers left, Pu Yunchuan frowned and said, "What's the situation?"

Isabel narrowed his eyes, picked up the mixed grain cakes in the basin and looked carefully, then took them in his nose and sniffed them...

Pu Yunchuan picked it up and took a bite, then nodded: "It's quite fragrant. Although it looks a little ugly, it's not bad. It tastes better than the mixed grain cakes we sell there..."

"Toxic..." Isabel whispered.

"Uh..." Pu Yunchuan's body stiffened when he heard this, and then he quickly spat several times: "Didn't you say it earlier?"

Isabel: "Heavy metal poisons are very light in weight. Eating them occasionally doesn't have much impact on the body..."

Pu Yunchuan: "......"

"Then Gou Ri, I just said why he was so enthusiastic and caring for nothing. It turns out that he was either a traitor or a thief..." Pu Yunchuan immediately said in an atmosphere.

"It shouldn't be that soldier was poisoned..." Isabel shook his head: "This kind of thing was obviously transferred by a professional alchemist. When I passed by, I saw many soldiers eating this. If I was not wrong, this poison should be targeted at these soldiers..."

"Targeting soldiers? Why?" Pu Yunchuan said blankly.

"Of course it's because of fear..." Isabel smiled and said, "We are lucky. If we come later, we will be afraid that we won't encounter such a good thing..."

"Uh... is that right?" Pu Yunchuan was stunned for a moment, completely confused inside, and thought to himself: What is she talking about? Why is it a good thing to be poisoned? Who is afraid? Why do I feel like I can't keep up? Is this the difference between the female marshal and the **si Si Programmer?

Well...No! She can't see it...

Thinking of this, Pu Yunchuan nodded with a serious look on his face: "I think so too..."

--------------------------------------------------

"Mr. City Lord, two more people are here today..." In the City Lord's Mansion, the Secretary of Government reported the new trends today to the City Lord who was calculating the house with the Finance Minister.

"There are survivors at this time?" The city lord was a little surprised. Now the seven northwest cities have almost all been destroyed. The city of Luxi, which has resisted the longest, has been broken two months ago. The refugees who could escape at that time have long been here. After all, the environment outside is obviously a bit exaggerated....

"Have you checked? Who is it?" the city lord said solemnly.

"I don't know, I'm wearing a cloak and being received by those mutants into the isolation area as soon as I enter the city..."

"Pay attention to your words, Tchaikov!" The city lord interrupted the other party seriously and said, "Those who are not mutants, but our compatriots, who are still proud to protect the city even now. The fourth area is also a temporary residential area, not a quarantine area. If I hear you say this, you won't be able to work here!"

The secretary's expression changed when he heard this, and he quickly lowered his head to apologize...

"How to distribute the supplies later?" the Finance Minister beside him asked carefully.

The city lord Mike knocked on the table and whispered: "The supplies of soldiers on the periphery cannot be reduced. They are the barriers for Gundolin today. They must resist the most dangerous mutant creatures. They cannot carry them thinly, otherwise they will reduce morale. First, reduce the supply of residents by one fifth..."

"But this is not enough..." the Finance Minister frowned.

"Our inner ring soldiers and the personal guards of the city lord's mansion shrink by one third..." Mike continued.

"This..." The Finance Minister was stunned and said, "Not very good, right?"

"There's nothing to do..." Mike sighed: "For the sake of the overall situation, I can only feel wronged. As for the situation, I will call them to explain it myself. I believe they will understand... You just do it..."

The Finance Minister nodded when he heard this, and a complex look suddenly appeared on his face. The secretary who had just spoken rudely to the soldiers on the periphery was now lowering his head, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes...

------------------------------

"The city lord really said that?" An hour later, in a dark basement, several mutated generals sat in front of a brazier and looked at the person opposite the person reporting the news in surprise.

And the person who reported the news was the secretary and finance minister in the city lord's mansion...

"I didn't expect Mike to do this..." the Finance Minister sighed slightly.

Several generals looked at each other when they heard this. One of them looked tall and had thick black hair growing all over his body. It was like a savage general who said in a muffled voice: "What do we say now?"

"Let's take a look first..." In the middle, the middle-aged general who had white scales all over his body sighed when he heard this, "We gathered mutant soldiers just to protect themselves. If we can be at peace, it would be the best. After all,... we don't want to take up the blood of our compatriots..."

"But those people no longer regard us as compatriots!" A general with black scales on the far left said in a gloomy tone.

"Okay...it's all today!!" General Bailin glared at the other party, stopping him from continuing to arouse everyone's anger.

The black-scale general's face slightly sank, but he did not continue to speak in the end. The white-scale general was called Wisk. He was a former lieutenant general. He had the strength of the peak of silver. Now that he has mutated, it is likely that he has entered the golden stage. Not to mention him, the number of people here may not be enough for him to fight. Moreover, the prestige in the army is very high. Many people believe in him. Even if he doesn't like his conservative approach, it is difficult to openly oppose it...

"Please go for a trip..." General Bailin said gently to the Finance Minister.

The Finance Minister nodded, but said nothing more. Although the other party tried to speak gently, he still felt the oppression of facing a ferocious beast. It has to be said that there is a reason why residents dislike these mutants. If his grandson had not been injured and mutated, he would not have chosen to turn against the mutant forces...

He sighed a little relieved when he heard that the other party had no intention of using bloody means. If possible, he would not want to see such a worst situation!

---------------------------------------

At the same time, what several people didn't expect was that in the dark basement of the city lord's mansion, a cruel incident that was extremely inconsistent with what the city lord said was happening!

I saw that the dark basement had been transformed into a temporary secret laboratory at some time, and the laboratory was filled with various human organs and many corpses of dismembered soldiers.

You can even see many dismembered soldiers twitching, with extremely resentful expressions on their faces, and they are still alive...

"How is the inspection result? Mr. Marin!" The city lord Mike came to the basement as soon as he sent the Minister of Finance away. He looked at the amputated soldiers with cold expressions without any fluctuations. He was obviously aware of the cruel scenes around him. It is hard to imagine that he was justified in fighting for the interests of the soldiers on the periphery more than ten minutes ago...
