Chapter 499: Chapter 500: Cooperation of the Eastern Fortress

Chu You smiled silently, Jin Chuiduo had not interfered with his indiscriminate killing of the prisoners beforehand. They had also discussed their views on the captives, and so Chu You knew what Jin Chuiduo’s attitude was towards these Japanese war prisoners. During the mission, Chu You constantly endeared himself to Jin Chuiduo while planting a seed of trust in him, all of this breezed open the doors to the Eastern Fortress’s owner’s approval of his actions.

The battle was impending, and the enemy was Japan again. Any slip-up leading to the release of the prisoners would be a grave issue. Over 10,000 Level 100 prisoners! Who knows what kind of damage they could inflict on the Eastern Fortress once their attributes were released.

Besides, managing so many prisoners had strained the combat power of the fortress and consumed a lot of resources.

Most importantly, there was no hope for a prisoner swap. Those prisoners of Yan Kingdom captured by Japan were likely executed already. Even the special envoy sent by the Court had gone silent. This enveloped the prisoner exchange event in a thick shadow of uncertainty.

In short, through continuous probing and a series of actions such as killing prisoners, torturing them, moving the prisoner of war camp, etc., Chu You knew that he had complete power over the life and death of these prisoners.

What cheered Chu You up was that the entire Eastern Fortress was cooperating with his actions. The Court would not hear anything about the prisoners. Who can blame when Jin Chuiduo had absolute control over the fortress!

As for the released demons, this was not a problem for Jin Chuiduo, who was in the Moon Awe state of the Eighth Realm. Even Long Yue’er knew that if she killed herself, all these devil puppets would automatically fall apart! And what was Chu You’s cultivation? Just a level 52 ant....

If it was a region with religion like the European server, recruiting demons indeed would bring much trouble to players. But obviously, Yan Kingdom was not like that. Even though the official forces view Abyssal Hell as a great enemy, at least in the Eastern Fortress, Chu You could do as he pleased!

As long as Chu You did not do anything harmful in the Eastern Fortress, Jin Chuiduo would turn a blind eye. The reason was mutual affection!

"Your devil puppets’ attack power is not good enough. Do you need my help to deal with it?" Seeing the ongoing massacre, Long Yue’er raised her eyebrows but refrained from directly interfering.

"No, if my battle-princesses personally kill these prisoners, they can gain strength." Chu You explained.

"Oh? Is that so?" Long Yue’er’s eyes sparked with intrigue.

From the scene of the massacre, it was clear that the ’Curse of Weakness’ had been deployed aggressively by the Battle Demon Princess. It was filled with a dense amount of curse fog, and the 1,000 captives inside had been affected by the curse. At the same time, the Battle Demon Princess and the War Demon Concubines continued their frenzied slaughter.

The scene was excessively bloody because it would take a while to eliminate the cursed captives. As such, Long Yue’er felt uneasy and had made the suggestion earlier.

Now, when the first captive was killed, a crimson blood bead was created from the body. It flew straight to Chu You and entered his body. At the same time, the Battle Demon Princess who killed the captive showed a satisfied expression, her morale value increased by 5 points.

Just then, Long Yue’er looked over to Chu You. She felt that it wasn’t only the demon who had gained a buff to her power, but this commander also seemed to gain something from the fallen body. What could it be?

"Lord Youye, are you performing some kind of sacrificial rite? Is this akin to sacrificing lives?" Long Yue’er asked.

"Indeed!" Chu You did not hide it; since Long Yue’er had noticed it, not to mention Jin Chuiduo did as well.

"Now I understand why the Court sent you here, you, Lord Youye, must have insisted on coming, didn’t you?"

"Haha, there’s no need to point it out since you already know. Besides, if you could go back in time, would you rather have the Court send officiants, or me?" Chu You looked at the pondering Long Yue’er.

"Hmm, if I could go back in time, I would hope that you could come. Those officials would only posture and ask for things... And who knows how long it would take for them to carry out these tasks, unless we paid some price. Dealing with them is just exhausting." It was clear that Long Yue’er had dealt with the Court officials before.

"It seems Yue’er has a lot of good experiences and insights... haha." After this, he saw more and more crimson blood beads flying over from the massacre area to him. The system’s notification also started flashing, showing that the number of living souls was continuously increasing.

In fact, for this task, as long as he fulfilled the quota of 10,000 living souls, he technically could have ended the task. However, Chu You was not satisfied with just this, what he wanted was 100,000 living souls, no less! If he didn’t reach this, he would feel bad for his power, and having reincarnated!

At this moment, a guard reported that many ores had been transported over from the quarry and were waiting at the gate.

So Chu You told them to wait.

After a while, the thousand captives were completely slaughtered; the life counter for the living souls read: 1216!

Then, Chu You ordered all Dou Zhan Ji to enter the battle spaceship. He coincidentally ordered a messenger soldier to move the transported ores to another place and unload them there. It was upstream of the ruins, within the current military management area.

The guard heard this and instantly left Chu You’s side to carry out his order.

"Yue’er, can you please ask someone to clean this battlefield?" Chu You requested.

Hearing the word ’battlefield’, Long Yue’er looked at Chu You somewhat speechlessly.

"What? Do you want a service charge? Come on, I’ll give you..."

Long Yue’er chuckled: "Lord Youye, please don’t start teasing me now."

After she finished speaking, a bright light shone from Long Yue’er, and Chu You felt a potent aura locked onto the massacre site. Tens of spiritual presences moved in a pattern, causing the dead bodies to erode at a rate visible to naked eye. Not only that, even the scent of blood was slowly fading away.

The dead bodies were all gone afterwards, the ruins remained as they were, and yet, the witnesses could sense that there was something different there. Almost like the cries of the departed souls....

"Next time, we don’t need to go through so much trouble. We can just do it here." Chu You looked at the cleaned up ruins and suggested. His hand then transformed to reveal a bag of Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Stones, containing 500, which he then passed to Long Yue’er.

"Lord Youye..."

"For the help provided in this endeavor, it is your due. Please, take it."
