The battle was over, but the aftermath was a little troublesome. This was because Li Huailin's cannon had caused too much of a ruckus. According to incomplete statistics, about 24 houses in the city had collapsed, and the other 41 houses had been damaged to varying degrees. The death toll was about 150 people, and there were still a number of injured people that had not been counted.
Of course, this time, Anthony directly summoned the troops. Because the people of the Ganga tribe had been rescued, and the Yaffler slave hunters had surrendered, there was no need to worry about exposing their whereabouts. Moreover, Anthony did not trust Mayor Morbor very much. Although he had done some good deeds to make up for his mistakes, he had, after all, made a mistake and had to be arrested.
Someone was sent to inform Delnate and the others, who were waiting anxiously at Li Huailin's mansion. Very soon, Anthony's Royal Knights arrived with people and took control of the situation. Morbor was also temporarily arrested, but it seemed that Anthony was not going to kill him. At most, he would remove his title.
A few of the elite guards of the Yaffler slave hunters who were still alive were also arrested. Then, Delnate personally took care of Sodero. Of course, Sodero did not have much strength to resist now. After fighting with Anthony, he was also like a lamp that had run out of oil. He only had a little more breath than Anthony. Now, his combat energy was completely exhausted, and he sat on the ground. Evans, on the other hand, was injured in the head and had not woken up yet.
As for Anthony, because Ed was there, he casually drank two mouthfuls of HP potions and immediately recovered. His combat energy had not fully recovered, but after a short rest, he would be fine. Old Ed was not injured at all, but because he had used a lot of precious potions, he was still distressed, especially the ones used on Li Huailin. Those potions were so precious. Not only did he use them, but Li Huailin even said that they were poison. It was really sad.
In any case, the situation was under control. After a short rest, Anthony walked to Sodero's side. He still had a lot of questions to ask Sodero, especially about his own memory.
Seeing Anthony walking over, Delnate reminded him very vigilantly, "Your Majesty, be careful."
"It's okay." Anthony waved his hand and said to Sodero, "You're Cam Sodero, right? You're the leader of Yaffle's slave hunters?"
"Cam Sodero?" Before Sodero could answer, Delnate suddenly looked at Sodero in surprise and asked, "You're that Sodero?"
"You know him?" Anthony asked immediately.
"Yeah, if I remember correctly, the name of Sword Saint Bantura's eldest disciple is Graeme Sodero," Dernate said.
"Sword Saint Bantura?" Anthony stared blankly for a moment. "Wait, that Sword Saint Bantura of the Beast race?"
"Yes, Your Majesty," Delnate said.
"You … are Sword Saint Bantura's disciple?" Anthony immediately asked Sodero.
"Of course, so … even if you capture me, it's useless." Sodero spread his hands and said, "Of course, I won't answer any questions you ask me. I just happened to pass by and didn't expect to meet His Majesty, the Human Empire's emperor. I was itching to spar with you. As for what Yaffle's slave hunters are, I have no idea."
"You …" Anthony was furious. How could Sodero not be related to the Yaffle's slave hunters? Even if he wasn't the leader, he was at least a cadre. However, since Sodero dared to say such a thing, he must have someone to rely on. Of course, that person was his master, Sword Saint Bantura.
Saint-rank existences were still a kind of existence that transcended the system of the continent. They weren't under the control of ordinary countries or systems. Although Sword Sage Bantura was a Sword Sage of the Beastmen, the Beastmen had been defeated by the humans, so he wouldn't interfere in this matter. However, private matters were different. For example, if his disciple was captured by the humans, then he could interfere in this matter, and no one would question him about it. As long as Sodero insisted that he had nothing to do with the Yaffle's slave hunters, even if Anthony captured him, he wouldn't be able to execute him. On the other hand, Sword Saint Bantura could come and take him away. Saint-rank existences were just that unreasonable.
Anthony felt a bit of a headache. This guy was really hard to deal with. If he wanted to deal with Sodero, he would definitely have to provoke Sword Saint Bantura, and provoking a Saint-rank wasn't a wise choice, even if he was the Emperor of the Human Empire.
"Huailin …" Anthony was a bit used to this. Whenever he encountered a problem that he couldn't solve, he would turn to Li Huailin because Li Huailin always had a solution.
"So he's the son of an official." Li Huailin said. No wonder this guy surrendered so easily, he wasn't afraid of going to jail. This was a bit troublesome because this guy wasn't on his side, but a red enemy. Li Huailin couldn't beat him up. Li Huailin also understood the current situation. Sodero was just waiting for his teacher to bail him out. He wouldn't divulge any other information.
"Let's ask them first." Li Huailin pointed to the people of the Gankara tribe, who were hugging each other and talking. It would be best if the Gankara tribe could find the secret treasure that Li Huailin was looking for with just the people of the Gankara tribe. That way, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. However, there were two possible directions for the secret treasure. The first was that Anthony would take the secret treasure and hide it, and then something would happen to him. The second was that after Anthony took the secret treasure, he would be attacked, and then the secret treasure would be stolen, and then something would happen to him. If it was the first option, then just reminding Anthony of this matter would be enough. If it was the second option, then he might need to find the person who attacked Anthony. This person might be part of the Yaffle slave hunters, so the secret treasure might also be in the Yaffle slave hunters. Therefore, Li Huailin had to find a way to clarify this matter.
Li Huailin wanted Anthony to ask the Ganara tribe. Of course, it was best for Anthony to remember this matter. Even if Anthony didn't hide it, at least one option was eliminated.
On the other hand, the Ganara tribe had suffered heavy losses this time. Their tribe wasn't that big, with a total of 233 people. Now, after a catastrophe, only 61 people were left alive. They had lost 70% of their tribe.
Regarding Anthony, their current mood was very complicated. Of course, they had already heard the whole story from Ravenna. Of course, they also knew Anthony's identity. This was why they were very confused. First of all, Anthony was the person who stole their God's Stone. Of course, they had to find Anthony. However, Ravenna said that Anthony had lost his memory, and that he was going to find their God's Stone and apologize to them. Most importantly, Anthony had saved them.
This matter also had something to do with Anthony. After all, Anthony was the emperor of the human race. This happened in human territory, so it was his fault for not governing properly. However, the tribesmen also understood that this time, it was their own fault. Anthony could be considered a hero who saved them from becoming slaves. This was a little troublesome. Now, they didn't know how to deal with their relationship with Anthony.
Seeing Anthony walk over, the oldest Ganara tribesman also walked up to Anthony. Ravenna walked behind him.
"Greetings, emperor of the human empire. I am the Great Elder of the Ganara tribe, Adric. Thank you for everything you have done for our people." Adric solemnly bowed, then turned to Li Huailin. "Duke Aquitaine, thank you for everything you have done for our people."
"No, no, no, I only killed fifty of your people. This kind of thing is not even worth mentioning." Li Huailin said very modestly.
"…" Anthony almost rolled his eyes. What was going on? Was it really okay to say that?
It was out of his expectations. On the contrary, Aderick bowed to Li Huailin with a satisfied expression. Anthony felt a little bad. This … this group of guys had no problems, right? Of course, he was referring to their brains.
Adric changed the topic and said to Anthony, "But even so, I still hope that you can return our tribe's treasure to us."
"Great Elder, I don't know if Ravenna told you about my current situation," Anthony immediately said. Anthony immediately said, "Of course, I want to return your treasure, but I really can't remember now. I can't remember the whole thing. Didn't you say that one of your clansmen saw me take that treasure? Is he still here? Can you tell me about this? Maybe it can help me remember. I promise you, as long as I remember, I will return the treasure to you. After all, it originally belonged to you. "
Anthony's words were very sincere, and Aderick really believed him. After all, Anthony had saved him before. If it wasn't for that, Aderick wouldn't have believed anything Anthony said. Nodding, Adric shouted behind him, "Kaiwei, come here."
"Great Elder." A youth of about 16 or 17 years of age from the Ganga Tribe walked out from behind. He looked at Anthony and said, "Great Elder, yes, it's him. I saw him on the day the God's Stone disappeared. The outsider was him."
"You saw me?" Anthony asked immediately. "Did you talk to me? Did you fight with me? Or something else? "
"No … no … I hid," Kaiwei said, a little scared. "Great Elder, he killed Marodiya …"
"What!" All the Gankara tribesmen were shocked, and immediately looked at Anthony.
"I killed your tribesmen?" Anthony was stunned.
"No, Marodiya wasn't one of us. Like you, she was an outsider." The Great Elder took a deep breath and said.
