"You know each other?" The guards of Green Willow City looked at the captain who had escaped from Black Tomb City.
"…" The captain of the Black Tomb City Gate forced a bitter expression.
If he said he did not know each other, this damned thief had already greeted him. Looking at his enthusiastic look, it was as if they were best friends who had grown up together. No one would believe him if he said he did not know each other! But if he said he knew each other, wouldn't that mean he admitted that he was in cahoots with the thief? He definitely could not admit it, the consequences would be unimaginable!
He had no choice but to pretend not to hear.
However, the thief who handed over a large bag of taxes nodded and admitted without any self-awareness: "Yes, yes, we are together!"
When he said this, the captain of the Black Tomb City Gate even had the intention to kill him.
Unfortunately, his strength was obviously not as good as the other party, so he could only remain silent.
He still pretended not to hear.
Anyway, it was not wise to fall out with the other party here. He would think of a way to escape after entering Green Willow City!
The captain of the Black Tomb City Gate squeezed through the crowd and used the busy streets to quickly move forward, intending to get rid of the terrifying slave catching team behind him. If possible, he wanted to rush to the other city gate as soon as possible and escape from there … No matter what would happen in Green Willow City, he did not want to participate! Although the King of Still Wind Kingdom had the strength of Heaven Rank Level 5 and was very powerful, and had many Heaven Rank warriors under his command, but compared to the terrifying slave catching team that could take down nearly ten cities in Still Wind Kingdom within a few days and even dared to use prison carriages to kill their way into Green Willow City, the captain of the Black Tomb City Gate was not optimistic about the King of Still Wind Kingdom at all.
If they did not have the absolute strength to take them down, who would send themselves to their doorstep?
If this slave catching team dared to come, it meant that they had the confidence.
If they took another look at the city lords and garrison generals in the prison carriages who had been tortured beyond recognition, they would feel a chill in their hearts!
Unless it was the Domain Emperor, how could they take down so many city lords so easily? Sheep Hoof, Sandstone, Gobi, Bramble, Walnut, Water Buffalo, City Lord, Lord, and General of Black Tomb City, not a single one was left out. They were all tied up in the prison cart. What kind of power was needed to achieve this?
Furthermore, if he wasn't a Domain Emperor, how could he use a Giant Foot Earth Dragon to catch up to him, who was riding on a griffin and using a spatial crack to escape?
Although he wasn't very strong, the Blacktomb City Gate Captain had seen countless people because he had been the City Gate Captain for a long time … He had never seen someone as strong as the silver-armored warrior couple sitting on the golden throne. He couldn't judge their strength with his eyes, but when he sensed them in the depths of his heart, he found that they were unquestionable existences. Could it be that this couple was one of the three Region Emperors, the Region Emperor of Revenge? Only the Vengeful Region Emperor would show such mercy to the untouchables and female slaves! But why would the Vengeance Region Emperor appear in the Ceaseless Wind Kingdom? The Still Wind Swamp was too far away from the territory controlled by the Avenging Domain Emperor. This was not the real battlefield at all!
The Black Tomb City Gate Captain could not understand the background of this slave catching team.
He could not understand why they had come.
However, he didn't have time to think about these questions.
The only thing he wanted to do was to quickly escape from Green Willow City, as far as he could, and never see this slave catching team again!
"Wait." The thief riding on the Wind Lizard caught up with him again. He said with a smile, "Although your strength is very weak and is much weaker than mine, your eyesight is not bad, and your speed is not bad. Why don't I introduce you to be a member of our guard team? You have a bright future, and as an old member, I will warmly welcome you to join us! Ah, my name is Feng Ji. What's your name? "
"Feng Ji? Aren't you the City Lord of Gold Sun City? " The Black Tomb City Gate Captain felt that this thief looked familiar. It turned out that this guy was the legendary City Lord of Gold Sun City who almost starved to death!
"That was ten days ago. Now, I am a qualified and loyal guard," Feng Ji admitted generously.
"You don't want to be a City Lord, but you want to be a guard?" The Black Tomb City Gate Captain wondered if this lad was retarded. However, after thinking for a while, he realized that being a guard for the Region Emperor was indeed more promising than being a City Lord. Moreover, in a rotten place like the Gold Sun City, there was nothing to be gained. It was not shameful to be a guard. Most importantly, those who did not agree to be a guard were all in the prison carriage behind. Feng Ji's treatment as a guard was probably extremely generous! The captain of the Black Tomb Gate Guards shuddered as he thought of this. He lowered his voice and pleaded, "Sir, please be merciful and let me go. I only want to live and will never tell on you. This is a battle between superiors, it has nothing to do with us ants. Please spare me!"
"So boring. I thought you had good eyesight and were a promising talent. I didn't expect you to be a coward!" Feng Ji waved his hand in boredom. "Then get lost!"
"Thank you, Sir. I will leave immediately and never show myself again!" The Black Tomb City Gate Captain's heart that was hanging in the air finally calmed down. That was close. His strength was too weak and his status was too low.
Just as the Black Tomb City Gate Captain was prepared to leave at the fastest speed in his life.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
It was one of the two silver-armored warriors on the Earth Dragon. He was the mysterious man who once said, "Wine and meat stink in the luxurious door, and bones of frozen dead on the road." He waved his hand and asked Feng Ji, "Why are you not leaving?"
Feng Ji walked forward and reported, "Sir, it's like this. I have my eyes on someone and want to introduce him to the guard team. He has good eyesight, but he is very timid. I don't know how he is doing at the moment." After he finished speaking, he turned around and pointed at the Black Tomb City Gate Captain. Feng Ji's words almost made the Black Tomb City Gate Captain cry on the spot. This, this is the end.
On the golden seat, the female warrior of the silver-armored couple denied, "He is timid. Even if he has good eyesight, we don't want a coward!"
Hearing her words, the Black Tomb City Gate Captain felt relieved and wanted to kneel down to thank her.
However, he did not dare to move.
In front of such a strong person, any wrong words or mistakes could lead to a fatal disaster.
He was waiting for the final decision of the mysterious man who was suspected to be the Emperor of Vengeance. He hoped that he would have the same opinion as the mysterious female warrior, that he hated cowards and drive him away.
"Coward, of course, we don't want him." The mysterious man nodded and said, "However, a person's courage is not always what it seems on the surface. Some are hidden and need to be stimulated; some are related to growth and need to be cultivated. Courage is usually proportional to strength. The greater the ability, the more courage. It is impossible for everyone to be born a bold guy, especially smart people. After thinking about it, their courage is always smaller than Er Lengzi … So, give him a chance and assign a task. If he can complete it, then recruit him as a temporary guard and see if he can be trained. "
"If he can't complete the task, kill him directly. I hate cowardly and incompetent guys!" The female warrior added.
The Black Tomb City Gate Captain felt that the sky was dark.
It's over.
It's completely over!
What kind of opportunity is this? It's impossible to refuse!
It's not about whether I'm willing to join as a guard or not. It's about whether I can keep my life … If I can't complete the task, I'll be executed. Why am I so unlucky? Could it be that retribution for collecting too much taxes in the past?
The mysterious man threw a magic crystal. The Black Tomb City Gate Captain caught it subconsciously. When he saw it, he trembled in fear.
Good lord, this is the unique magic crystal of the Dragon Swallowing with the strength of Heaven Stage level 3 in the Still Wind Swamp. Moreover, it has been purified by an unknown energy, showing a flawless treasure. If he had such a crystal, it wouldn't be a problem for him to change his position with the Lord of Still Wind Kingdom. Now, the mysterious man gave this hot treasure to him. What did he mean?
"Your task is to hand it to one of the three chief stewards under the Lord of Still Wind Kingdom. Tell them that the Tita Chamber of Commerce wants to attend the birthday celebration of the Lord of Still Wind Kingdom's 88th concubine the day after tomorrow." The mysterious man assigned a task to the Black Tomb City Gate Captain.
"…" The Black Tomb City Gate Captain didn't dare to refuse. He could only force a bitter face and bow to accept the task.
When the slave-catching team had passed, Feng Ji, the pathfinder thief, intimately patted the Black Tomb City Gate Captain's shoulder, like a boss looking after a subordinate: "This is very simple. I've done this in Black Tomb City, Water Bull City, Thorn City and so on. I believe that with your ability, completing this task won't be a problem. Do a good job and fight for it. There's still a chance that you'll join our guard group. "
The Black Tomb City Gate Captain actually wanted to strangle him to death. If this kid hadn't stopped him, he would have escaped long ago.
Of course, he could only think about it in his heart.
If he really made a move, Feng Ji, the former Lord of Gold Sun City, was a Quasi-Heaven Stage. If he wanted to take down an Earth Stage level 7 like him, it would be as easy as playing with a toy.
In the end, the Black Tomb City Gate Captain could only force out a smile that was uglier than crying: "I'll give it a try!"
Seeing this expression, Feng Ji was overjoyed, but then shook his head: "It's not a try, it's a 100% serious execution. Otherwise, I guarantee that you'll die a horrible death. Actually, you've already calculated it. Out of so many people who escaped in front of us, you're the only one who survived. If it wasn't for our master thinking that you're a promising talent, do you really think that you could escape to Green Willow City? With your little strength, don't mention others, I can pinch you to death with one hand! Do a good job, maybe you can become a real guard, and our master will bestow you a Heaven Stage beast, then you'll be able to turn things around … Of course, being a guard is not something that you can do just because you want to. I'm only hiring you temporarily, you're still far from it! Hahaha! "
This kid went far away. The Black Tomb City Gate Captain realized that he was sweating profusely, and his legs were trembling as if they were convulsing.
Life or death, it seemed like he really had to fight for it!
Snitch?
If the Lord of Still Wind Kingdom knew the truth, he would definitely take measures. If he could win, he should be able to make a great contribution!
But if that mysterious young man was really the Vengeful Region Emperor, if he played any tricks in front of him, not to mention the Lord of Still Wind Kingdom, even the other two Region Emperors wouldn't be able to save his life!
He'd better listen obediently. If he hesitated any longer, his life would probably be in danger.
God knows if there were people watching him in the dark …
The Black Tomb City Gate Captain looked around and secretly shivered. He hurriedly walked forward and went straight to the Green Willow City's King's Mansion.
Ten minutes later.
Dejected, he was directly thrown out of the room.
The Heaven Stage Level 3 Dragon Swallowing's demon crystal was indeed accepted. He also received the promise of being allowed to attend the birthday banquet. But he knew that everything was over. Because the three stewards didn't show up, and the one who received him was only an ordinary steward without an invitation, that guy's promise was completely invalid. The demon crystal that was offered must have been secretly embezzled by that guy.
This kind of thing was not only happening in Green Willow City.
It also happened frequently in Black Tomb City.
If it was not sent by an Earth Stage Level 7, but by a Quasi-Heaven Stage, then these lowly people wouldn't be so bold.
Because the strength of the person who sent the gift was too weak, and the quality of the demon crystal was too high, it made the other party want to embezzle it.
That Dragon Swallowing demon crystal would definitely not be sent to the three stewards …
In other words.
His mission had failed!
The Black Tomb City Gate Captain, who had been punched a dozen times in the face, climbed up from the ground in despair. He had already exhausted all means, begged bitterly, and even took out his real identity as the Black Tomb City Gate Captain. He repeatedly stated that he was entrusted by the powerful Tita Chamber of Commerce to deliver the gift. He also said that he knew the golden-tooth class leader on duty in the King's Mansion, and hoped that he could really get an invitation to the birthday banquet. But the guy who received him still ignored him and said, "Come when the time comes, I will make arrangements. If you continue to cause trouble, I will kill you." Then he sent the guards to throw him out.
This was because he was too weak, so weak that the other party felt that even if he was bullied, it would be in vain.
Even if he snatched the treasure, there would be no negative consequences.
If he was not entrusted by the Chamber of Commerce, he would probably have been killed and destroyed!
"…" The Black Tomb City Gate Captain suppressed his anger and shook his head. This damned King's Mansion was really dark. But there was no use complaining, who asked him to not have enough strength! If he had enough strength, he would definitely kill all those trash, and definitely set fire to this damned 'Hell Palace' that sucked the blood of the people, and was almost built from the bones of the people!
"Things don't seem to be going well?" Feng Ji had unknowingly appeared behind the Black Tomb City Gate Captain.
"I failed." The Black Tomb City Gate Captain closed his eyes and quietly waited for death.
"Now you understand the helplessness of not having strength? A person not only needs to have vision, but also strength, and finally courage. If you have all these, then you are qualified to be the Master's guard! " Feng Ji patted the other's shoulder: "Master Titan already knew that you would fail, but he saw your hard work and felt that you were a promising talent, so he gave you a second mission."
"Second mission?" In the Black Tomb City Gate Captain's heart, he suddenly felt like he had been reborn, and was about to cry.
In the midst of despair, he once again saw the light of hope.
This time, he definitely could not fail again!
Work hard, the second mission, even if he had to risk his life, he had to complete it!
Not for anything else, but for the recognition and trust of the superior. Even if he had failed, the superior still trusted him and gave him a second mission. In his life, who had ever trusted him like this? Who would give him a second chance?
Only that mysterious and powerful young man, only he, would feel that he was a promising talent!
A gentleman would die for his bosom friend!
The Black Tomb City Gate Captain clenched his fists. For the first time, he felt an unprecedented strength of faith burst forth from his body!
