God Simulator

The prison camp where Datney was located was located on a low hill.

It is said to be a camp, but it is actually a cave made of stones. The cave exudes the body odor of beasts and a faint smell of blood. It used to be a place where hunters handled their prey.

The prisoners here include a total of four soldiers and an injured and lame camel beast.

The other three cavalrymen were seriously injured, and they had to lie down most of the day, waiting for doctors to come over to check and give them medicine.

Although Datney was pierced through the stomach with a bamboo sword and suffered severe pain in his waist and abdomen and chills all over his body when he exerted force, it did not affect his slow walking.

He carried a stick and was allowed to walk around the prison camp.

The guards here are cat people who can switch between cat and human forms freely. Usually, most of them squat in the form of cats or observe secretly. If they find any situation, the cat people will immediately return to their fighting human form.

The guards were very ruthless and barely spoke to any of the prisoners.

Apart from the birds in the sky and the bugs on the ground, the only people Datney communicates with are Prince Wadiye, who comes to check on him once a day, and his deputy, General Sharo.

Prince Wadiye has a strange appearance, looking like a large oval brown walnut, with a pair of eyes and a mustache painted on the nut.

The strange thing is that even though the eyes are painted on, they can move and blink normally.

He claimed to be an exiled noble from the Kingdom of Kermit. He received the mercy and kindness of Lord Yao and was sheltered in Shacheng of the Yao people. He is currently forming a restoration army and is always ready to counterattack the restoration of the country.

In the prison camp, Prince Wadiye shouldered the responsibility of investigating and recording the statements of prisoners of war.

He said to Datni: "Recruit Datni, if it were not for the treatment of Yao doctors, you would have died. We treat the prisoners kindly because the Yao people and Shacheng respect and cherish every life."

"In the eyes of the Benqi Army, you are just a number, a cannon fodder that can be consumed at will. But we hope that you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and come back to safety."

Datney asked tentatively: "Do you mean to ask me to surrender and become a member of the Yao clan?"

"How can such a good thing happen! You have a beautiful idea!"

Prince Wadiye puffed his beard and glared in anger: "Recruit, I just want you to give up those thoughts that you shouldn't have. I am aware of every move you make."

"I know very well what you are hiding..." The prince's voice was low.

Datney stiffened, but he still forced himself to say: "I don't understand, Your Majesty Prince, I didn't do anything that violated the rules here. I just took a walk around here to recover better."

"Don't be clever, you can't hide it from me."

Prince Walnut was suspended on the ground, his eyes sharp: "Do you think I don't know about you secretly digging tunnels? Don't think you can play tricks in front of Prince Wadiye. No one can!"

"I'm telling you, even if you dig your tunnel all the way to the sea under the cliff, there are many ferocious carnivorous fish and sea snakes that can bite people, and even the Red Thorns don't want to mess with them."

The Dartney man was a little confused: "Tunnel... dig a tunnel? I don't have one."

"How dare you speak so harshly!"

Wadiye snorted coldly: "Is the cave where you are recovering from your injuries the one with the three stones piled inside it?"

"That's Banu next door."

"..."

Moments later, the captive Banu, who was lame on one leg, was arrested for trying to dig a tunnel to escape. Before being transferred to a special ward, he glared at Wadiye and waved his fists.

"You traitor! You damn recruit! Don't let me see you again, I'm going to break your throat!"

Datney couldn't explain it at all.

Afterwards, Prince Walnut laughed and said: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding. I have always felt that Datney, you are an upright person, so I chat with you the most. I also hope that you will not go astray."

"..."

Datney thought to himself that it was because the other prisoners were very strict in speaking, so he was more cooperative and his injuries were less serious.

"You are a new soldier, and you probably can't understand the cruelty of war yet."

Prince Wadiye changed the subject: "I have seen with my own eyes that invaders burned trees and farmland, killed those who resisted, and treated the weak as livestock and weeds and abused them at will... The essence of aggression is that the strong attack the weak. humiliation."

"What's different from the past is that your Ben cavalry army met the more powerful Yao tribe, so the situation completely turned around. You began to regard yourself as the weak one and thought it was unfair."

"The war will end soon, that's inevitable. To a certain extent, you are lucky."

Datney could hear some reluctance in the other party's words. It was probably because Prince Wadiye thought of the fallen kingdom and how his home and territory were taken away from him at that time.

"Let's not talk about that. It's still early today, so let's play a game of tribal war chess. Let me tell you, the Yao tribe's tribal war chess is a classic game. You must try it."

As the prince said, General Sharo, who looked like a cactus next to him, took out a battle flag from his handbag and spread it on a flat stone slab.

"I'll teach you, it's very simple."

While teaching chess, Wadiye said: "After the war, you come to my Restoration Army. Our Restoration Army is forming a cavalry team. You come to be the captain of the cavalry team and train the riders..."

This chess game lasted until midnight.

It was the catman guards who reminded him repeatedly that Prince Valdier reluctantly left.

Before nightfall, Datney said he had a stomachache, so he left the camp and walked outside to a small mountain col.

There was a crow sitting on the stone, croaking. Seeing Dartney, it turned its head and stared at him with its small black eyes.

Datney was stunned for a moment.

Is it a military bird?

This is to punish me with military law...

He suddenly became nervous.

But soon, Datney discovered that this was just a larger crow. The eyes of the warbird will turn blood red in the dark, and the bird's beak has fine teeth.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not just the military birds chasing and killing them.

Datney returned to his cave ward, but he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

The slightest sound outside, whether it was falling gravel or the sound of wind, would wake him up immediately.

Even in the prisoner camp, he could feel the traces of the Yao people everywhere.

There were aircraft called sky lanterns floating in the sky, and the bamboo bird monsters shot down the general birds one by one. The ground was controlled and monitored by cat people... The only place that was considered a blind spot was in the water.

Although he was not treated badly here and had good meals, Datney still wanted to return to the ashes-filled country where everything he was familiar with was there. The unfamiliar world is scary.

He decided to run away.

In the early afternoon of the second day, Dartney walked around to the low cliffs at the back—just safe enough to reach the sea.

Datney dropped the rope made of clothes and pants and prepared to climb down.

Then he was blown by the night wind, and his passion was slightly cooled down, so he thought of a problem that he ignored.

How to deal with piranhas and sea snakes in the water?

…

After thinking hard, he decided to give up escaping and go back to sleep well.

At this time, the simple rope tied to the stone suddenly straightened, as if something was grabbing the rope below.

Datney took two steps back in fright.

A wet man climbed up holding on to the rope.

The person who came was dressed in rags, and his body was covered with wounds that were deep enough to show the bones. Many of the wounds had festered and turned into abscesses. It was a miracle that he was still alive from such an injury.

The man glanced at Datney and said something with his dry and torn mouth. He fell straight to the ground, and his head hit the stone with a clang.

Datney shouted for help in the direction of the camp.

The cats quickly rescued the unknown wounded man and placed him in a prisoner of war camp. The doctors arrived at starry night, and the funeral director who had saved Datney also came, which made Datney vaguely feel that this might be a big shot.

"Well done, thanks to you for finding him and pulling him out. He has been in the water for many days and has no strength at all."

Xianjiao sighed and said: "Bei's injuries were too serious when he was carrying the sword. We tried many ways to help him stabilize his injuries. This body was almost unsalvageable."

"His name is Negative Jianbei? Who is he?"

"A swordsman from the Swordbearer clan."

The funeral director hesitated for a moment and said: "According to the frontline, not long ago, Ling Jianbei broke into the headquarters of the Benqi Army alone, broke through the defense line of the Ash Warriors, and killed the apostle Falbert. Then he disappeared. We Everyone thought he died there."

Datney's mind was buzzing.

Lord Falbert, the unparalleled warrior with a broad back and an army of one man, the commander of the central army who once killed two apostles, the glorious warrior, the king of cavalry... died just like that.

Under the protection of the Ash Warriors, he died at the hands of an assassin who broke in alone?

What made Datney feel that fate was unpredictable was that the murderer of Lord Falbert was actually saved by him.

He felt dizzy for a moment.

"Are you OK?"

The funeral director was a little curious: "Do you have a good relationship with that Falbert?"

"..."

good relationship?

How could the apostle have anything to do with a new recruit? In the final analysis, it was just Datney's inner admiration and adoration for the powerful apostle.

The doctor's words made Danit realize who he was.

Suddenly, the smile on Xianjiao's face faded: "Is there something you want to tell us? Danit, you are not a person who is good at hiding emotions. I hope you can tell the truth and don't wait for us to verify it."

Datney had a look of embarrassment on his face.

Finally, he lowered his head and said dejectedly: "I am a deserter."

"ah?"

"I escaped from the front battlefield during the charge and wanted to hide, but I was injured on the way and was rescued by you. I was very scared... I thought it was a military bird chasing me."

"The reason I saved the man with the negative sword was because I wanted to escape from the sea. But I don't know what I can do if I go back. I might be regarded as a deserter and executed, or I might be considered as someone who has instigated rebellion and be imprisoned. Come on. I don’t know.”

"I'm just a soldier, I don't know what I can do."

Datney said the huge stone weighing on his heart, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

There was a hint of surprise on Mingjiao's face: "You are very honest."

"I'll say it again."

The ghost doctor looked serious: "It won't be long before we end the war, and then you will regain complete freedom. We will send you back to your hometown. Of course, if you want to stay, you can."

Danit looked unbelieving: "Are you really not going to attack the homeland of the Benqi Army?"

"Conquering that divine kingdom has no meaning for either God Yao or the Yao people."

The funeral director said: "Those cavalry are useless against the Yao people, and the apostles are not strong enough, but the moose you use as a mount is a good new species."

Although he knew this was the case, Danit was still a little frustrated.

"But, doctor, maybe the Ben Cavalry Army will be defeated, but the Ben Cavalry Army belongs to the Fearless Empire. Lord Ben is a powerful god, and he is also the god of the invincible God Fearless. The Fearless Empire will definitely defeat him quickly. Come with support, you will never win easily."

"The Fearless?"

The funeral director grinned: "The god of the last fearless man was called Bo Shen. Yao Shen just sent out apostles to symbolize his identity, but he was so frightened that he blew himself up and didn't even dare to resist."

"How is this possible... This is too..."

Datney looked stunned. He wanted to say that this must be a lie, but his reason told him that there was no need to exaggerate to a prisoner.

"I have something serious to discuss with you."

Fangjiao remembered something.

"Lord Jushen has finished his calculations. The war is about to end. Many cavalry troops will be captured on the front line. Managing the captives is a troublesome task. So I recommend you to do this with us, at least let your compatriots It can reduce unnecessary casualties and wait until the war is over...but this must be done voluntarily. "

"Will you go to the front with us?"

Datney hesitated for a moment and nodded.

He didn't want to convince other soldiers, but he wanted to see how he could end the war that he vowed to do.

God War is not like playing tribal war chess, where you automatically win by arranging your chariots and horses.

Even a beast in dire straits will rise up to resist when faced with a hunter, let alone hundreds of thousands of battle-hardened cavalry troops.
