Blue star road

Soon after, Su Bai and the others finally rushed into the residential area before the imperial minions arrived.

Not surprisingly, they were caught together with the residents here.

Groups of people were driven towards the area where the giant round stone was.

In that area, Lopez was driving a mecha floating in the sky far away, looking coldly at the laborers who had migrated in like a colony of ants, and said coldly on the communication channel.

"not enough."

Han Jie's voice sounded on the communication channel.

"It's the legion commander."

Immediately, Han Jie led part of the Magic Energy Legion troops and flew towards the south side of the abandoned land. They wanted to drive another group from further areas. Basically everyone near the abandoned mining area has been arrested, and there is not much labor left nearby.

Over the next three days, a steady stream of laborers was driven in every day.

The number of laborers gathered reached millions.

Of course, the Astor Empire does not have such a long chain for all of them to pull at the same time.

But the reason why they call in so many laborers is also very simple, to rotate! If there is only a group of laborers, it will not be able to pull them very far at all. The distance between the abandoned land and the capital of God is more than 600 kilometers.

Even without hauling anything, it would still be a long journey to complete the 600 kilometers. Not to mention pulling such an overweight thing, and no machinery could help.

The leader of the Sin Bone Army, Romagos, looked at the gathering of laborers. But Lopez showed no sign of moving yet, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.

You must know that this escort mission was assigned to him by the emperor, and now things have gone wrong. If he delays any longer and fails to reach the imperial capital by the designated time, he will definitely be punished.

"Sir, we don't have much time."

The adjutant next to him also said eagerly.

"I see."

Romagos replied flatly.

Then Rodriguez walked towards Lopez, and soon he was in front of Lopez.

"Sir Lopez, I think the manpower is almost gathered. It's time to set off. We have been delayed long enough before. It is not a good thing to keep the emperor waiting for too long."

Lopez just looked at Rodriguez coldly and replied coldly.

"There's not enough manpower."

Hearing Lopez's words, Romagos was filled with rage. This guy definitely did it on purpose. He couldn't say enough about gathering so many people!

If he couldn't fall out now, he would never be polite.

Romagos suppressed his emotions and replied.

"There are enough people gathered. Judging from the current scale, it is at least over one million."

"A bunch of fish."

"Then how many people do you want to leave?"

"Are you in a hurry? It's okay if we set off now. If they can't pull them back, let your legion go up."

"Hello"

Romagos had veins popping out on his forehead, but he finally swallowed it.

After getting the response from Romagos, Lopez raised his hand and gave the order.

"leave."

"yes!"

Han Jie, who had been waiting behind him, responded respectfully.

Soon the imperial soldiers walked up and began to drive the first batch of laborers up, asking them to pull the chain locks. At the same time, there were many ropes tied to the chain locks and stretched out to get as many laborers as possible.

Unfortunately, Su Bai and the others were among them, so the three of them had no choice but to go up and pull out the heavy chain.

The imperial minions wandering around were holding electric whips in their hands and scolding him fiercely.

"Listen to me. If anyone is lazy, he will be executed on the spot."

Su Bai's expression was a little strange. He had the illusion that he was back in prison doing hard labor. It seems that in the Astor Empire, there doesn't seem to be much difference between the people at the bottom and the prisoners in the prison.

Soon everything will be ready.

Under the joint command of a famous herald soldier, all laborers began to pull hard at the same time!

"Hey!"

The round, lumpy boulder stirred and began to move forward.

Of course, they did not pull the round boulder directly. During the time when labor was called for, the people of the Astor Empire were not idle either. They transported a huge pallet forged from meteorites, and the bottom of the pallet was fixed There were rows of giant meteorite iron pillars that resembled rolling logs, and they fixed the round boulder on the pallet.

But even at this speed, the movement is not very fast. I can barely see, but it is also very strenuous.

This can be seen from Su Bai. Su Bai's face was tense and he struggled with every step he took.

"Can you hold it?"

Di Jahalu was a little worried and asked Su Bai and Ren Jiaken in a low voice.

"To be honest, if we were to compete with you, we would definitely not be able to hold on, but compared with other laborers, we will have no problem. As long as we can hold on until the large area of ​​​​labor can no longer bear it, we will naturally change people, so don't worry."

Su Bai replied while pulling.

"When we take turns to rest, we will find a way to change positions, find Danedo and the others, and join them."

"good."

Su Bai responded.

Sure enough, after pulling for almost half an hour, the speed dropped significantly, and many laborers began to fall to the ground unable to hold up.

At first, the soldiers did not hesitate to go up and beat him to death.

But after beating another batch to death, they found that the speed did not increase, but became slower, so they blew a special whistle.

All the labor stopped and people were replaced.

Su Bai felt that his arms were numb. This work was quite difficult.

According to the number of laborers summoned, if there is no accident, he will be replaced every five times, so it is barely bearable. Of course, those with weak constitutions will be told separately. At the end of the first round, hundreds of people died without any accidents. Su Bai and the others could see the supervising soldiers dragging the bodies and throwing them out.

Seven days later, on the desolate land, countless hard laborers pulled on the chains and trudged forward step by step.

Su Bai tiredly followed the migrating troops, even though he was allowed to take turns. But when you are resting, you cannot lie down and rest, you still have to walk.

Fortunately, these Astor Empire people are not stingy when it comes to food. They still know very well that if they are not even guaranteed to eat, all the gathered laborers will probably die of exhaustion in a few days.

"There are too many people, and we can't find Denido and the others at all."

Su Bai lowered his voice and said to Di Jiahalu.

"It doesn't matter. We just need to make sure that the empire's minions won't go crazy and kill people. As long as this stone is transported to the imperial capital, these laborers will be dismissed sooner or later."

Dijahalu replied calmly.

"What you said makes sense."

"but."

Digaharu hesitated mid-sentence.

Su Bai looked at Dijahalu with some curiosity. It was rare to see him hesitate.

"What's wrong?"

Dijaharu gritted his teeth and said with red eyes: "The more I think this ghost thing is, the less good it is. How many people have died because of this thing."

"Digaharu, be sensible."

Rengarken interrupted.
