Chapter 1078: Chapter 279 Stunning_4

Liu was subconsciously resistant to battling civilians, so this time, the entire guard of the Summer Palace in Caiyu City took a break right where they were, treating it as a desert excursion. He even brought along the blacksmiths from the underground arms factory and the second-line soldiers, the Fierce Tiger mercenaries, to the desert for a campfire and even screened two live-action movies at night.

The Dwarf Blacksmiths, being slaves, were a bit overwhelmed by their master’s generosity. The live-action movie, filmed on location with the Turun team and Mulan’s troops, garnered considerable acclaim and attention from them. During their days forging military hardware underground, live-action movies had always been one of the blacksmiths’ happiest rewards. Every Sunday, Caiyu City would screen an outdoor live broadcast, and on those days, young men and girls from Medusa, even from a hundred miles away, hand in hand, carrying stools from afar, would join. Of course, the fallen Elves migrating around were also an inseparable part of the audience. The Gray Dwarf Blacksmiths had already brawled with the Medusa and fallen Elves several times.

For the Beamon warriors of the Turun team, watching the live-action movie for the first time was an exhilarating and novel experience. They talked about it all night and still felt it wasn’t enough. General Pan’s classic move of chewing bamboo slices with an indifferent expression had become a favorite mimicry among them.

Liu thought this was a rather good pre-war mobilization tactic, as the live-action movie crystal cards that Caiyu City had already copied were all action films, capable of stirring up enough violence.

"Stand up, stand up! Everyone, stand up!" With the arrival of the two high-ranking officers for inspection, Fawkes’s squad leader Vincent jumped onto the supply wagon and, from his elevated position, roared at the Snake-men and Scorpion-men prisoners.

The Snake-men and Scorpion-men, their wrists bound with hemp rope, slowly got up from the ground with numb expressions, fearfully watching the two Beamon bosses inspecting them. These desert Snake-men and Scorpion-men prisoners, comprised of children and women, totaled seven hundred. Surrounded by the Piegel warriors, they looked lost and afraid.

"What are the casualties?" asked General Reyes.

"No one died. I had Master Otigha support us with some magic—the Warted Pig spearmen and Warted Pig Infantry charged together, easily settling it. Their adult men were too few, hardly enough for our spear-throwers to handle," said the jubilant squad leader Vincent.

"If we knew it was just old people and kids, why the hell did we go fight them?" Liu felt dizzy looking at these desert Snake-men and Scorpion-women, the weak and the old posed no threat to the supply base.

"Your Majesty, the girls among these desert Snake-men and Scorpion-men are quite attractive. I’ve selected a few maids for you," said squad leader Vincent cheerfully, nodding and bowing to Liu before signaling to the nearby Piegel warriors with a nod. Immediately, several burly Piegel warriors plunged into the prisoners, pulling out several charming Snake-men and Scorpion-men girls. Crying and pleading filled the air among the prisoners.

The desert Snake-men girls, like the Medusa girls from Beamon, had pretty faces, each donning a pair of glasses that made them look demure. As for the Scorpion-men girls, they were indescribably charming, with not just their alluring beauty but also a hooked tail on their back, with bright cactus flowers strung on it by headbands, resembling a lovely, lively braid.

Liu was enchanted at the sight of these desert Snake-men girls.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

"Huh?" Liu snapped out of his reverie, looked around, and noticed General Reyes and squad leader Vincent staring at him with peculiar expressions. Flush with embarrassment, he said modestly, "Forget it! We are not like those Mulan beast armies; why keep prisoners? Seeing as they are all weak and elderly, let’s just let them go."

"Your Majesty, that’s not in accordance with our policy. These prisoners have no reason to be released. If you don’t want them, the military department will still reward them to the meritorious," General Reyes said, his eyes lingering on the desert Snake-men and Scorpion-men girls with a hint of greed: "There’s always talk of ’deadly beauties,’ but it’s a pity we Beamon had never had Scorpion Beamon; who knew they were so beautiful."

"Then give them all to me!" Liu chuckled. "Since not taking them isn’t an option, I might as well take them all."

The two Fawkes generals on the side snickered, thinking how hypocritically pretentious their king was—one moment falsely modest, another hospitably accepting it all.

"Do you two have any objections?" Liu squinted at the two Fawkes generals.

"None! No objections at all," the two Fawkes generals hurriedly gestured.

"Hehe, it’s not that I want them; you’re the ones thrusting them into my hands," Liu whistled smugly.

We’re just stuffed with food, thought the two Fawkes.
