Commander Hei Shi hurriedly paddled to the shore, then ran towards the settlement.
The low shacks became noisy all of a sudden.
The sound of footsteps, armor, and shouts were endless.
Above the lake, a person peeked out from the window of the water cabin.
He tried his best to look towards the settlement of the Black Jade People.
This person was Xie Dong, who had been 'filling up the lake'. He had been stationed here for more than two months.
He had a deep understanding of the Black Jade People. He understood that this was a clan where every citizen was a soldier, and they made a living as mercenaries.
Such examples were not rare in the history of Earth. In the Middle Ages and feudal Western Europe, there were many small countries with poor production and strong folk customs. They relied on the feudal lords as mercenaries to maintain their livelihood.
However, unlike the Black Jade People, the purpose of human mercenaries was not to fight, but to make a living.
If they did not have to fight and were paid, most ordinary mercenaries would be more than happy.
After some thought, he took out a pair of binoculars and continued to look at the settlement of the Black Jade People.
As he watched, he was very nervous. This was a real spy. If the other party found out, he would be killed immediately, and there would be nothing to defend himself.
Even the Venerable Dragon God would not have a reason to save him.
Fortunately, there was no Black Jade People to care about the Lake God who was peeping, so he could see what he wanted to see.
…
In the center of the low, old shacks, on the square used for the worship, was already filled with people. Regardless of gender, all of them were strong and sturdy. It was really a black mass.
A rough head count showed that there were about ten thousand people.
In the square, a few elders in red hats and white robes were still standing on the high platform, giving orders.
"Everyone, today is the day that we, the Black Jade People, have a foothold in this world. We will use the swords and magic in our hands to prove the meaning of our existence. We live for war, and we die for war! "
"The birth of our clan originated from a certain Upper Realm deity. The whole meaning of our existence is to serve the strong and enslave the weak. Today, a great deity has issued an edict, ordering us to eradicate a clan that is disrespectful to him. Now is the time for our clan to show our value! "
Elder Da's tone was impassioned. In his words, it was natural for the strong to bully the weak.
"Now, Eight Commanders, prepare the armor, light the fire, and cook. Three days later, we will send troops to exterminate the clan!"
…
No one knew that a Great God was standing in the air above the murderous Black Jade Man.
"These fellows are overflowing with killing intent. What do they mean by exterminating a clan? Outrageous, I can't let this happen, "Sir System said to Fang Ning.
When Fang Ning heard this, he immediately stopped what he was doing and said in surprise, "What era is this? There's actually someone who's openly promoting such views. That's simply insane. "
"Open your dog eyes and take a good look, okay? Those people down there are not from Earth, they are from the Upper Realm. Haven't you read the information that Anderson has compiled? You don't even know the customs of the Upper Realm. There aren't any modern values there. Exterminating an entire city is a common thing, "Sir System said in disdain.
"Uh … there's too much information on him. It'll be a waste of time to read them all. I'll naturally look at them when I need them." Fang Ning said sheepishly.
"You're the one who's lazy." Sir System mercilessly exposed his lie.
"Don't expose me. Besides, I've been very busy these days, okay? When have I ever been lazy? "Fang Ning argued.
"I can't be bothered with you now. These fellows are so arrogant, I'm going to go down and beat them up …"
"Yes, yes, we have to let them understand that in this world, love and justice are the right path and the general direction of the future." Fang Ning quickly agreed to divert Sir System's attention.
"Oh, wait, I have a question. You talk about 'love and justice' every day, but I always feel that your mind is filled with either finding a wife or having fun … You don't have anything to do with these words at all." Sir System was puzzled. "Could it be that you're one of those benevolent but hypocritical people?"
"Nonsense." Fang Ning would never admit that he was hypocritical. He said righteously, "How am I not benevolent and righteous? How am I hypocritical? You see, I've always treated my subordinates kindly. The achievement of 'Unparalleled Affection' was activated by me. I've never bullied those ordinary people, let alone forced them. I've always been filled with love for the people and quelled natural and man-made disasters everywhere … Don't judge a person by what he thinks, but by what he does. "
"Oh, you really aren't hypocritical. You really do whatever you think. Anyway, you just eat, drink, and have fun every day and talk nonsense. The specific benevolent and righteous things are all done by me …" Sir System said in realization.
"You've taken over my body. What you do is what I do. Stop talking nonsense and quickly go do your own things." Fang Ning said and continued to cultivate his culinary skills. He turned a deaf ear to Sir System's words.
"Don't. Lend me those two stupid stone monuments again and I won't meddle in your affairs." Sir System finally revealed its true intention.
"Uh, take them away. Get lost. Don't disturb my studies." Fang Ning summoned the Divine and Earthly Monuments from his soul. He gave a few instructions and threw them to Sir System, letting it play with them as it pleased.
…
At this moment, just as the Black Jade Man was about to disperse, a dark yellow giant palm suddenly fell from the sky and slammed down.
Everyone panicked. Just as they were about to leave, they realized that there seemed to be an invisible barrier around the square. How could they escape?
At this moment, the giant palm slammed down …
Most of the people who were hit by this palm fell to the ground and fainted.
"Hmph! I've already taught all of you a lesson last time to respect the lives of others, yet you're actually so thickheaded and thickheaded. You speak of exterminating an entire clan at every turn. You've gone mad. Your words are hateful, and your actions are punishable!"
The Great Elder of the Black Jade Man stood up.
He looked terrified and looked at the Sky God in mid-air.
Was that not the Sky God who interfered when the lives of his people were sacrificed to the Heaven and Earth of this realm?
"Great God, please calm down. We're just following orders. We have no other choice. If we don't do it, our entire clan will have no place in this realm. "Great Elder begged bitterly.
"Hmph, which ruthless person dares to issue such an order? If I find out, I won't let him go. "Vigilante A landed slowly and asked.
"That Great God is hidden in the darkness. I don't know who he is, but he is powerful and I am powerless to resist him … If we don't do as he says, our clan will definitely suffer a calamity." The Great Elder had a bitter expression.
This was the sorrow of being a weak race. It wasn't easy to be the lackey of the strong. The karma they provoked was something their race had to bear.
"Oh, then which clan did he want you to exterminate?"
"It's the Earth Dragon Clan that recently arrived in this realm. They're located under the mountains in the southwest of China. They're growing stronger day by day. If we don't eradicate them soon, no one will be able to control them in the future." Great Elder answered honestly.
He had to be honest and he could not lie. Lying to these powerful Sky Gods was much more serious than lying to the emperor.
"I see. Since they're a clan that recently arrived and live underground, they have no grudges against you. Why do you want to exterminate them? "
"I really don't know. This is the Great God's order." Great Elder said helplessly.
"What benefits did he give you?"
"Oh, he said that after we're done, he'll give us a mountain of gold."
"A mountain of gold?" Vigilante A was expressionless. "Stop fighting for now. We'll talk after I've investigated this matter."
"But, but if we don't send our troops, I'm afraid that the Great God will exterminate our clan …" Great Elder said awkwardly.
Vigilante A did not say anything and only looked at him.
"Mr. Rich Boss, Mr. Rich Boss, I'm in a dilemma again. I've saved one, but the other is about to die. Even the System Maxim can't handle this …" Sir System said sullenly.
"Don't call me Mr. Rich Boss. I'm as poor as a doornail and my little vault is empty. How can I be rich? You always say that you're honest, but it turns out that you're also full of lies. "Fang Ning said without raising his head.
"No, with your Divine and Earthly Monuments, you're one of the few rich people in this world. I've never lied. "Sir System said confidently.
