Chapter 360 - 360 360 Truly an Unwarranted Disaster
360: Chapter 360: Truly an Unwarranted Disaster 360: Chapter 360: Truly an Unwarranted Disaster The slaves howled as they rushed over to start cleaning up the valley.
The people who had been blocking them from above the valley had now all disappeared.
Standing high, they could naturally see how miserably their boss had died and what the others’ final outcomes were.
To avoid being captured, they had already taken the chance to flee.
Of course, what awaited them was probably not going to be pleasant.
Bandits without the support of a strong organization were just moving military merit.
Most crucially, many people would probably want to know the reasons and consequences of this operation, making these witnesses perfect targets.
Zhao Guang didn’t even need to capture these people to know that their fates wouldn’t be very good.
“Master, congratulations, we’ve now established the basic framework of our territory,” Xi Fei said with a smile.
Zhao Guang, looking at the smiling Xi Fei, replied indifferently, “Not at all, this is at best just laying the foundation.
The real framework is still a long way off.
We at least have to wait until we reach our domain to discuss further.”
Despite saying this, a smile was unmistakable on Zhao Guang’s face.
He had initially wanted to wait until reaching his domain to establish credibility using various means.
Unexpectedly, the battles they encountered along the way had resolved these issues.
It’s true that some of his slaves had died in the previous battle.
Indeed, even with an absolute advantage, the number of his slaves lost was greater than that of the enemy’s.
But once their morale was established, everything else would be easier to handle.
Slave soldiers, indeed, their combat effectiveness is poor, even with the best equipment.
This was not only a matter of strength but also a reflection of morale and mindset.
“That’s very good.
Things will be much easier from now on,” Xi Fei could tell from Zhao Guang’s expression that he was in a good mood, and her smile became even sweeter.
“By the way, what about these people, are they still not subdued?”
“Master, rest assured, they have already submitted,” Xi Fei replied.
Zhao Guang raised an eyebrow, so quickly.
But that also made sense since the people of the Otherworld knew what a slave contract implied.
Unlike the people from Earth who didn’t know, thus it would take longer for them to submit.
Even after submission, they would still need some time to adjust.
Once these people fully accepted their situation, they submitted even faster.
Zhao Guang soon met these people: “Tell me, why did you come to attack me?”
After exchanging glances, the strongest one among them spoke, “We were just following orders.
Our boss behind the Xue Feng is Marquis Coruas, the orders were directly from the Marquis himself.”
Marquis Coruas?
Zhao Guang searched through his memory, certain he had never heard of this person before.
Not knowing him, why would he suddenly target me?
Even if he found me disagreeable, it couldn’t be enough to seek my life directly.
This had already broken the common rules of noble conflicts, turning into a fight to the death.
With such an order, even if I were to invade Marquis Coruas’s domain or even kill him, I would have a justification in front of the King.
Normally, no one would initiate breaking these rules.
“What is your name?” Zhao Guang furrowed his brows and simply asked.
“Master, my name is Mous.” Mous was clearly very aware of the attributes of the slave contract.
Or rather, their Thief Gang had captured many people, and he had witnessed firsthand those who were controlled by the slave contract.
No matter how much they struggled, in the end, they had only one path, which was to submit, so he did not struggle anymore.
At the very least, Mous now appeared to be in much better condition than the others beside him.
This was not only because he was stronger, but also because he was the first to give up.
“Very well, Mous, these people will be temporarily under your management,” Zhao Guang pointed to the people behind him.
Although this did not conform to management rules, since they were all his slaves, he could ignore these rules.
Mous quickly nodded in understanding, feeling relieved in his heart.
Thankfully, he was the first to surrender, and it seemed that future life might not be too terrible.
“Do you know why Marquis Coruas is after me?”
“Well, I overheard Xue Feng talking to himself in his room, so I know a bit,” being one of the top fighters under Xue Feng in the Thief Gang, getting close to Xue Feng’s room was not difficult for him.
Xue Feng, that guy, was extremely confident in himself and did not think that these people would dare to betray him.
Besides, sometimes he believed that letting his subordinates know some things was not a bad idea.
“From what Xue Feng said, it seems that behind Marquis Coruas is the Prince,”
The Prince?
An image of a thin figure flashed through Zhao Guang’s mind, surprised that such an idiot had support behind him.
A Marquis in the Empire was also among the top lords.
After all, in the entire Empire, there were only two Dukes, and these Marquises were not much lower in status.
“Go on, so the Prince wants to deal with me?”
“It seems so, based on what I heard, Marquis Coruas did not want to harm you, it was just an order from the Prince, so it was pushed onto the Xue Feng Thief Gang,”
“I also heard Xue Feng cursing at that Prince…”
Mous did not dare to continue, realizing that he was in the presence of a true noble.
Zhao Guang glared at him, but some things are better left unsaid, especially when one’s own power is insufficient.
The Prince, no matter how out of favor, was still the Prince, indeed not simple.
But why would this guy want to deal with him?
He seemed to have even saved his life once.
Could it be due to misplaced anger?
Everything was exposed, and he was punished to his Domain.
As a result, he, who performed the best that day, was the target of his displaced anger, which was not an impossible scenario.
Yet, such a fantastical story that could only occur to the most witless nobles was actually happening here.
Caught up in it, Zhao Guang immediately felt the frustration of an unjust disaster.
All he wanted was to quietly improve his status and acquire resources for advancement, but instead, he found himself entangled in these affairs.
What’s more, there were indeed people who were going along with the Prince’s folly.
“Fine, they all look down on me, don’t they?
Since you all want to fight, let’s have a fight and see, don’t blame me if you die,” Zhao Guang muttered resentfully, while Mous kept his head down, saying nothing.
He would rather know nothing of the grudges and vendettas among these nobles.
Moments later, Zhao Guang’s smile returned to his face, no matter what, he would deal with the present first.
