Chapter 996: Battle for the High Tower (31)

When Batman regained consciousness, he found that he appeared in a strange mine tunnel. This was a cave entrance located at a high place in the mine tunnel. In front of the cave entrance was a platform. There were many naturally formed stone pillars beside the platform, and Batman was now tied to them.

Shiler stood on the edge of the platform and looked down. Because of the height of the platform, the demons who were busy below could not see the people on the platform at all. Batman moved his shoulders. He found that the iron chain was not tied tightly, but considering Shiler who was still standing beside him, he did not act rashly.

"Perhaps you are very puzzled, Batman." Shiler put his hands into the pockets of his suit pants and looked at the scene in the mine tunnel and said: "Why have we never discussed those topics related to communism with you."

"In the cognition of most Americans, we are fanatical believers. You understand the loyalty and sacrifice that cannot be explained by your theories as inhumane brainwashing."

"I haven't thought so." Batman's tone was very calm. He opened his mouth and said: "Even before I knew Alfred was a KGB spy, I knew that the intensity of this kind of infiltration could not be achieved by simple brainwashing."

"People's fear of death is innate, and to overcome this fear, what is relied upon must be higher than death. There must be a philosophy that makes people despise death to make people fearless of death." Batman also looked at the miner slaves working in the mine tunnel and said: "Brainwashing content similar to obeying orders is far from enough."

"Of course, because you are smart enough, you can draw this conclusion just from logical deduction. But you still have doubts. I don't know if it is you or us who had a problem, which made you, in the situation of being surrounded by communists, until now, still unable to hear us truly tell this theory."

"So, why is it?" Batman asked, paused, and added: "Alfred said he didn't talk to me about these things because I trusted him too much. If I took what he said as dogma, it might affect my objective judgment."

"But..." Batman turned to look at Shiler, his meaning was self-evident. Theoretically, the teacher-student relationship is the easiest to develop subordinates. Teachers can influence students' thoughts in a subtle way.

Although Batman is still exposed to these now, if Shiler really wants to do this actively, it should have progressed to this step today, rather than like now, after contacting all external conditions, Batman is still looking at flowers in the fog.

Shiler was silent and did not answer. Batman did not know what he was thinking, but at this time, a commotion suddenly came from the bottom of the mine tunnel. Batman shifted his attention over. He saw a red demon with a scarred face standing in front of a group of people and said to them loudly:

"You heard it just now, Lord Merkel divided us into different working groups, and because my enthusiasm for learning is high and my performance is also good, I won the position of leader of the third group!"

"I am the smartest and most capable of everyone, so I lead you to work, and you must listen to me!"

"Now, I want to assign work. Everyone must work hard! Because the third group must win in the next production competition, so as to prove that I am the best leader!"

"Come on, all come over, I want to explain the division of labor carefully... You! And you! Why don't you listen to me?! Turn your heads over, otherwise I will use a whip to whip you like a foreman!"

Batman, who was tied to the stone pillar, frowned fiercely. He heard the red demon talk about a lot of things, but in fact, he didn't understand the division of labor at all, and even followed the most primitive method of mine excavation, that is, everyone did their own thing.

After the meeting, the dark red demon and his smaller companion walked and said: "Look, I said, if we were more active before, we would definitely be able to be new foremen."

"I have had enough of that group of arrogant foremen, but if I become a foreman myself, I must also take a whip and let that group of idiots work for me!"

"This group of idiots who don't understand anything, how can they be as smart as us? The Red Demon is the smartest race in the mine tunnel. Only demons like us who are good at watching eyes and can read the situation can stand in the mine tunnel. No matter how many masters change here, the Red Demon clan must be the best staff!"

His companion opened his mouth and said: "To be honest, I feel a little worried. The new master of the mine, Lord Batman, seems to be different from other generals. Those things they talked about unity and cooperation, for themselves, I have never heard of before..."

The scarred red demon snorted coldly and said: "Different? What's different? They just changed a way of saying it, and you don't understand it?"

"They said we fight for ourselves, for ourselves not to be bullied, but in the Underworld, being bullied because of being weak is deserved, and we fight for him, can we not be bullied?"

"As long as there is war, there must be cannon fodder charging at the front, and commanders sitting steadily in the rear. No matter how many methods they change, cannon fodder is definitely more dangerous than commanders. Cannon fodder dies, the commander wins, so isn't this battle finally fought for the commander?"

"Not only on the battlefield, but also in the mine tunnel. There are those who work and those who are foremen. Foremen are just more labor-saving than those who work. If you want to be fair, either everyone is a worker, or everyone is a foreman. But if that's the case, the mine cannot operate, where does the ore come from? Where does the equipment come from?"

"That group of idiots didn't realize this, so they never paid attention to what Merkel said, but I am different. I remembered every sentence he said."

"He said that those who perform well can become group leaders, so I perform actively. Even if I don't understand his bullshit theory, as long as I follow him and repeat it, and perform very yearning, I can get the appointment and become a foreman."

"As long as I am a foreman, I have power, and I am different from that group of stinky slaves. Whoever I let work, whoever has to work, whoever I let do hard work, whoever has to do hard work. If they don't want to do hard work, they have to come to curry favor with me. Weren't the foremen at the beginning like this?"

The red demon shook his head triumphantly, and his companion immediately praised: "Morun, you are indeed the smartest among us. If you become a foreman, we can do less work!"

The red demon called Morun snorted coldly and said: "I am only a group leader now, so you still have to work. If I become a big group leader, I will let all red demons be group leaders. In this way, you don't have to work."

But at this time, his companion scratched his head and said: "You say, what does the democracy in their mouths mean? Lord Merkel always emphasizes having a democratic spirit. Before in class, you also kept repeating this sentence. What does this mean?"

Morun waved his hand somewhat impatiently and said: "They are just changing a method to encourage those slaves to work more. Democracy, democracy, they say it is to let demons be the masters of their own house, but how can this group of miner slaves be the masters of their own house? The mine is the mine owner's, what does it have to do with them?"

"The work done by the mine slaves, the ore dug out, isn't it all the mine owner's? And what work they want to do, what ore they want to dig, are all decided by the mine owner."

"They would say so, just like the previous General Fuxin, who said to his demon soldiers, fight well, and there will be heavy rewards when you come back, just changed a way of saying it, you don't understand?"

His companion nodded and said: "Indeed, the mine is not ours. At most, the miner slaves work well, and the above gives some rewards."

"If you want rewards, it's also rewarding us." Morun turned his eyes and said: "The above can't reward the things one by one to the miner slaves. It must be that we send them down. We lead well, and we should get rewards. That group of stinky slaves, still roll to one side!"

A cold expression appeared on Morun's face. He glanced and said: "Not only that, now, the master of the mine is just a weak human. Although he is now a general and has soldiers under his command, he cannot change the fact that he is weak."

"Actually, I don't have the patience to listen to class and sit there without moving, and I have to watch that Merkel's expression, and follow him to shout this and that..." Morun "snorted" said:

"However, for the sake of the identity of the foreman, I can also endure it. When I become a big group leader and arrange you to the right position, the Red Demon will be all over the mine, and our people will naturally be able to figure out the various habits of this group of humans. By then..." Morun showed an evil smile.

His companion narrowed his eyes, looked at him and asked: "Are you trying to... but it's also true, the few humans leading us now have very weak soul power. If we can really seize the opportunity..."

His tone became somewhat excited, and his expression became excited, as if he saw the day when the Red Demon occupied the whole mine, so he said: "When that time comes, you will be the real Demon Lord, and your mother clan will have infinite glory..."

The two red demons laughed together, but at this time, Morun paused, frowned, turned to the air beside him and shouted: "Who?! Who is there?! Get out?"

The two red demons immediately put on a defensive posture. His companion held a long spear in his hand, and Morun pulled out a dagger from his waist. In the shadow of the corner of the dirt pile beside him, a tentacle flashed by. Morun captured this detail and immediately rushed up.

Seeming to know that he was discovered, a black shadow behind the dirt pile rushed out somewhat flustered, wanting to move to another dirt pile to hide. And when he moved, Batman, who was tied to the stone pillar, saw that it was Six-Horn.

"Damn Shadow Monster! Get out!" Morun shouted while chasing. He turned to his companion and said: "He must have heard our plan! Kill him!"

The two red demons chased after him, but Six-Horn ran towards the center of the mine tunnel. There were not only red demons there, but also many miner slaves who were dumping slag.

Morun turned his eyes, and then pointed at Six-Horn and shouted: "I am the group leader of the third group! That Shadow Monster wants to destroy production, chase him! Catch him!"

The miner slaves who were working were stunned, but as soon as they heard that Morun was the newly promoted group leader, they instinctively looked in the direction he pointed. Six-Horn only cared about running and did not pay attention to covering his figure, and was soon discovered.

Morun kept shouting "Catch that Shadow Monster!", and the slaves subconsciously went to chase Six-Horn.

Shadow Monsters are actually a very fragile race. Their physical strength is not strong, and their speed is not fast enough, let alone compared to Shuttle Snake Demons who are known for their speed. Soon, the two closest Shuttle Snake Demons approached Six-Horn and almost caught his tentacle.

Being chased urgently, Six-Horn instinctively ran towards the shadow mine on the edge of the mine tunnel.

He himself is a member of the Shadow Vine. As long as he can return to the shadow mine, no one can do anything to him. However, just before he returned to the shadow mine, the long spear in Morun's companion's hand was thrown over, just hitting one of Six-Horn's tentacles.

Six-Horn screamed in pain. The sound wave of the scream stimulated the Shadow Vine around the shadow mine. In an instant, the Shadow Vine burst out, knocking all the miner slaves around into the air. ===== CHAPTER 997 =====
