The Hungry Wolf mercenary ignored the leader's screams and took out a sharp knife. With a slash, blood spurted out from his eyes like a broken water pipe. The bandit leader was in so much pain that he kept struggling, but his limbs were tightly held by the small mercenary and he could not move. After all, he was not a swordmaster, but a grand mage. He did not have much strength to struggle.
The sharp knife kept spinning in his eyes, causing the so-called bandit leader to faint from the pain. Meanwhile, Hungry Wolf held a bloody eyeball in his hand and walked towards the few Great Swordsmen and Great Spellcasters who were tied up tightly.
"Your boss is already unconscious because he refused to tell us who ordered you to attack us. Now, I'll give you a chance to tell us who ordered you to attack us! "If you don't tell me…hehe…" The captain held a bloody eyeball in his hand and said to them. He meant that if they didn't tell me, he would feed them the old man's eyeball.
"Are you going to tell me or not? You're not going to say anything? Brothers, open this guy's mouth and let him eat the most delicious treasure in the world!”The leader of the Hungry Wolves Mercenary Group said to his brothers who were surrounding them.
"No! No, I don't want to eat it. Just kill us! Wu! "Wu ~~" The expert who was tied up and unable to move opened his mouth by the hungry wolf mercenary. A beautiful human eyeball rich in protein was stuffed into his mouth. Let him squeak.
"Haha, it's delicious, right? Don't worry, I'll take off his eyes and fingers one by one and feed them to you one by one later!”
They weren't cruel, but they were taking revenge for their dead brothers. How could they miss such a good opportunity? Although they felt terrible, they still did it. He vented the hatred in his heart on these so-called experts.
"Ugh…Ugh…"
The experts who had eaten and those who hadn't vomited all vomited. They even vomited yesterday's food until there was nothing left. In the end, they only vomited some yellow water. They looked at them with cold sweat all over their bodies and kept shaking their heads.
"I said, stop torturing me, I said! We all confessed!"
Indeed, if they didn't say anything else, the next thing they would eat would be eggs and fingers. Anyone would say it.
A fearful Great Swordsman said it, and they also said it. Seeing that they were willing to confess, the small mercenary ran towards Nan Feng with a happy smile. Nan Feng only nodded and walked towards the experts who were tied up. He said with an evil smile,"Tell me, who instructed you? Is it the union?"
"Yes, the union wants to force you to go bankrupt.”
"As expected! Now that you've failed, I'll give you two choices. One is to follow me, and the other is to die with them.”Nan Feng did not say much. He only confirmed his thoughts and gave them a choice.
"Young hero, can you give us a third option? Let us go, and we promise that we will not go against you in the future!”A Great Swordsman said to Nan Feng. The others also looked at Nan Feng and nodded, indicating that they agreed with his words.
How could Nan Feng let go of this opportunity? Talents and experts were things that could only be encountered by luck. It was not possible to nurture an experienced expert in a day. Although he could do what Xiao Hu did, it would be too damaging. Now, Nan Feng wanted to recruit them, so he gave them a choice. He did not expect them to not know what was good for them and suggest a third option to Nan Feng.
However, Nan Feng did not blame them. He only said to them,"Sure, but when the time comes, I will spread the news that you are my spies and betrayed them. Thousands of people were ambushed by us. When you return, will they believe your explanation? By then, you will definitely be hunted down by them day and night. Besides, if you follow me, your future will be limitless. You won't suffer any losses.”
They did not expect that Nan Feng would kill them all, forcing them to have no way out. Now, they could only rely on Nan Feng, or die. Of course, for a Great Swordsman and a Great Mage, this was an outstanding ability. Why would they want to die? Hence, they acknowledged Nan Feng as the Young Master and followed Nan Feng as the general who would conquer the country in the future.
"If Young Master doesn't care about today's matter, we'll follow Young Master to the death!”
"We pledge our lives to follow the young master!"
The few experts who were tied up had no way out and could only resign themselves to fate.
"Alright, I won't take today's matter to heart. Untie them! Pack up your things and return to the capital with me. It won't be long before the empire's army comes to take care of this place.”Nan Feng instructed the remaining mercenaries to pack their things together. After that, Nan Feng opened the several Interspatial Rings on his hand that were dozens of cubic meters in size and kept the hundreds of boxes of gold coins into them.
Looking at the few experts and the Hungry Wolves Mercenary Group, all of them were staring at Nan Feng's actions with their mouths wide open. Is he using us as bait? Heavens, what kind of person was this? Scheming, martial arts, wealth…
"Everyone, don't look at me like that. If you follow me in the future, you'll also have Space Rings and gold coins like this.”Nan Feng kept the hundreds of chests of gold coins and touched the ring on his finger as he spoke to everyone.
"Then…then what about them? "This time, there are more than a thousand escorts…" Hungry Wolf mercenary leader pointed at the corpse lying on the ground.
"What will these empires do? Don't worry, let's go! I still have many things to do. How are you? Can you walk?" Nan Feng turned to the injured experts and said.
"Young Master Xie, we can still walk!”A few experts clutched their chests and said to Nan Feng's good intentions.
"Heh, take this one each. Don't worry, it won't be poison. Otherwise, I would have killed you long ago. Eat it and your injuries will be better.”Nan Feng took out a few pills from the jade bottle and gave them to Ames.
They took it over and did not trust Nan Feng very much. They only took a whiff and did not expect that the fragrance that was emitted would actually raise their spirits. They looked at Nan Feng curiously and saw that Nan Feng had already turned his head away and ignored them. Hence, they carefully ate the pill in their hands. The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, and a sweet fragrance flowed down his throat into his stomach. It turned into a stream of hot air that warmed up his injuries and made him feel much better.
Under Nan Feng's lead, the team slowly advanced towards the Empire. However, the current team leader was not as strong as before. The previous team of over a thousand people had now become a team of over a hundred people. They were still covered in injuries, but their spirits were still as elegant as before. Perhaps it was because they had received the gold coins from this mission. However, the gold coins they had received this time were twice as many as the gold coins from the mission. Everyone was so happy that they couldn't hide his smile.
As for the dead warriors, Nan Feng was really generous to give them double the compensation.
It turned out that the leader of the Hungry Wolves Mercenary Group, Marek! He was a Gold-rank swordmaster and above, and he led an A-rank mercenary group. However, the vice-leader had already died in battle. Now, he admired Nan Feng in his heart. Along the way, he kept looking for topics to talk to Nan Feng about. Of course, Nan Feng spoke to him very politely.
"Your mercenary group has an uncertain income, and you're always facing huge crises. Why don't you come and help me? You'll have a fixed salary for a month, and there's also a year-end bonus!……”Nan Feng said to Marek.
"Is that okay? However, every one of your subordinates has the strength of a gold-tier, while my group only has one gold-tier and one grand mage. The others were all silver-tier and bronze-tier! What can I do?" Marek smiled at Nan Feng guiltily.
"Hehe, the level is just a representation. It's only for a moment. Moreover, it will increase in the future.”Nan Feng said that he needed manpower now.
Guidance? Under his guidance? The Great Swordsman and the Magical Tutor had only been defeated by him in one move. If they could receive his guidance, then the strength of their mercenary group would increase. Marek thought about Nan Feng's words.
"If Young Master doesn't want to be abandoned, we are willing to serve Young Master!”
"Good, good! I was waiting for you to say that!"
Arthsen Empire Palace!
"What is it? A large number of mountain bandits appeared in the Ricoderby Valley? Attacking the financial advisor's caravan? And our entire army is gone? Heavens! Who did it?"
Egul sat in the main hall and cursed at the officials below. His heart was not aching for the thousands of soldiers who had died, but for the wealth of his kingdom. The border was always at war, and there were more than ten thousand casualties in a year, but Egul did not take it to heart.
The palace had long heard of Nan Feng moving hundreds of millions of gold coins into the Imperial Capital. Hence, Aegiordo's army had mobilized a thousand soldiers to escort him.
A thousand soldiers, and they were the most elite soldiers, had all been wiped out. What kind of expert did this? They could not help but panic.
"Your Majesty, when our people arrived, the other party had already cleaned up the scene. Only our dead bodies were left. We can't find out which country did it. However, according to the intelligence officer, there was a 10-meter-deep and 100-meter-long abyss on the battlefield. The walls were extremely smooth, and there was a lot of flesh and blood left in the abyss. According to the Imperial Advisor's analysis, it was caused by a forbidden spell!”The Prime Minister spoke to the enraged Egul on the throne.
"I wonder who did it? But what about the goods carried by the financial advisor's caravan? Tell me!" Egul asked anxiously.
"This…"
"Tell me! What is it?"
"I heard from the intelligence officer that the financial advisor is now with the Hungry Wolves Mercenary Group. They are now rushing to the capital, but I didn't see them transporting any goods!”The Prime Minister had no choice but to reveal the matter under Eguol's questioning.
"No luck. It's over, it's over. Our Arthsen Empire is over! That 100 million gold coins is gone!" Egul slapped his thigh and chanted,
"Pass down my order. If you find any suspicious people, capture them. Also, if there are any mountain bandits in the country, destroy them for me! What a bunch of trash!"
In the future, there would be fewer bandits in the Arthsen Empire. Merchants would invest in the Arthsen Empire, and the cargo would be much more assured. However, this was very bad news for the people behind the scenes. From then on, the Arthsen Empire was in trouble!
Please help me vote and let me rush to the rankings. Thank you very much. I will update it every day.
After that, Egul turned to the Grand Marshal and said,"You are in charge of this mission. This order can mobilize the armies of all the towns and cities to destroy those hateful mountain bandits!”
"Yes, this subordinate will do it immediately!"
