Chapter 42: Charlie is Captured
These people watched Johnny Knight's heroic sacrifice.
Many of them have had a bad opinion of Johnny Knight for various reasons.
Not long ago, at least three ladies rejected the knight's invitation to date.
But at this moment, Johnny is their hero.
If Johnny Knight stands in front of them again, they will definitely consider the knight's invitation seriously.
"Well, now that I think about it, if you meet him in the company of three or more friends of the opposite sex in a park where people come and go during holidays, it's not impossible to consider it!"
According to what the man who later became the first post-war Prime Minister and is now known as Loud Voice wrote in his autobiography.
Johnny Knight heroically sacrificed his blood and life in a brave battle with the army of dead ghosts.
He was neither the greatest nor the most successful in the entire Demonic War of Resistance.
But he was the first martyr to be hailed as a hero.
Charlie did not forget what he should do because of the tragedy that happened before him.
Atta has lost too many comrades tonight. He feels that completing his mission is the greatest memorial to many heroes.
Charlie's hands were steady, and he struck the match that had been prepared.
After igniting the fuses of three or four tubes of explosives, insert these sparking explosive tubes into the barrel of the cannon.
He took one last look to make sure the fuse was still burning, then tore his legs and ran away.
Charlie was just a demolitionist who had just started today, so he didn't know how powerful this explosion would be.
Anyway, in order to see Elena again, he was prepared to run as far as he could.
After he ran more than ten steps, there was an explosion behind him.
Almost at the same time as the explosion was heard, a strong wave of air knocked Charlie onto the beach.
If Charlie hadn't tilted his cheek at the last moment, a goblin finger bone stuck in the sand would have almost poked his eyeball.
In his autobiography, which almost everyone in the Demon Ruins had a copy of, the Prime Minister used a lot of space to describe the deeds of Charlie the Fire of Hell.
He even set aside more than ten pages of personal biography for Charlie in the biographies, which is the most important core part of the book.
Regarding what happened at this time, Big Voice wrote this.
"This was the first time I saw Charlie the Fire of Purgatory. When he lit explosives and stuffed them into the cannon that threatened all of our lives, I felt that not only me, but also His Majesty the King was almost conquered by his personal charm.
"
Well, this all happened only in a very short period of time, and there was no way the loud voice would have had time to notice it.
The real situation is that it was not until the cannon exploded that people's attention shifted from the place where Johnny died to the antique cannon.
The people on the wooden roof saw a scene that shocked them.
With this violent explosion, surrounded by smoke and fire, the artillery flew into the air.
It kept rolling up and down, flying towards the wooden house in a parabola.
"Oh God, Mom"
This time the exclamations on the wooden house reached its peak.
Probably because of what happened to Johnny Knight just now.
People finally understand what it feels like to be hit by a huge object.
Captain Jack and the Dead Troll also raised their heads and looked at the antique cannon rolling in the sky.
The cannon is getting bigger and bigger and clearer in the big blue eyes of the dead ghost troll.
Dead trolls can even smell the patina emanating from antique cannons.
With a "bang" sound, the antique cannon fell heavily to the ground, and at least half of it sank into the ground.
At the same time, countless broken bone fragments like porcelain and a shiny iron hook flew out sideways.
Especially the iron hook that flew out sideways, which took the lives of at least three or four pirates and more than a dozen dead goblins along the way.
If it hadn't burrowed headlong into the hard rock, I don't know how much trouble it would have caused.
Charlie's explosion, after the whole thing was over, only saved him from being shot in the military court as the murderer who was fully responsible for Johnny Knight's sacrifice.
But when Charles performed more and more outstandingly in the Battle of Ruins, the value of this matter was re-evaluated and it was able to be publicized everywhere.
Later, this incident became one of Charlie's most famous deeds.
Xie Sheng, who kept his consciousness in the head of the evil demon, saw the whole process in the sky.
At this time, Charlie got up from the ground and stuffed the matchbox he was holding into his pocket.
There were probably less than twenty tubes of explosives left in his vest, and many of his pockets were empty.
So he stuffed some random stuff into those pockets.
For example, two pistols and some ammunition left behind by colleagues.
Charlie didn't notice that there was a guy staring at him in the sky.
Xie Sheng has some memories related to this guy.
"Well, I heard from Elena that this guy seems to be an ambitious young man from the town police station!"
He was more interested in the vest that Charlie was wearing.
"Well, are those explosives stuck on top? The battle here is almost over. These explosives should be more useful to me."
Thinking of this, Xie Sheng controlled the evil demon to launch a dive downwards.
"Snapped"
Charlie heard a voice behind him and was about to turn around.
"Don't look back, otherwise I will shoot."
There was a strange sound coming from behind, like a parrot just starting to learn human speech, with a very strange accent.
"Yes, sir, I will not look back, and you must not shoot."
"Although I have killed some, I don't like killing very much. If you are obedient, no one will die."
"Yes, I am going to be the director, and you are just passing by. Why can't we get along with each other?"
When Charlie said the word director, he deliberately emphasized his tone.
The purpose is to make the other party aware of the consequences of shooting a future director.
"Okay, Mr. Director, for your safety, take off this vest on you."
"This dress is ugly. I was forced to wear this thing. Are you sure you want it?"
"Don't bother talking. When I'm angry, my fingers will tremble and I'll hook them hard."
"Don't be angry, I'll take off this vest."
Charlie felt that there was a tough guy behind him, so he slowly took off his vest.
Although he was almost forced to wear this thing at first, he has worn it for such a long time and quite likes it.
