240 – Defeating the Hunting Fang Corps
Black aura overtook the faces of the generals of the hunting fang corps as well as the Wizards.
Everyone was appalled when they saw this.
“Fuck, I’m poisoned!!”
“We are poisoned!! When did it happen!!”
“Fuck, when was it? When were we poisoned?”
“…”
The generals of the hunting fang corps looked at each other, their eyes flashed with dismay, and they commented full of fear.
Amodeo took out a bronze mirror, looked at it for a while, and screamed: “My face, no, no, my face, how did it come to this!”
Amodeo won the favor of the emperor with his peerless looks. If his face was no longer beautiful, the emperor would no longer favor him.
Amodeo held an arm of Master Pagos and implored loudly: “Master Pagos, save me! Save me!! When I return to the imperial capital, I’ll make sure that His Majesty rewards you handsomely.”
“Don’t panic! This poison isn’t irrevocable. I… ” Before Pagos could finish speaking, Yang Feng looked at him with a faint sense of amusement.
A sharp pain surged inside Pagos. He couldn’t help but to spout a big mouthful of blood, and crumpled to the ground, unable to move.
The spirit of Wizards was strong, but their bodies were really weak. When poisoned by Yang Feng, so long as Yang Feng didn’t gave them time to cast spells, they would have no resistance, at all.
The generals of the hunting fang corps spat mouthfuls of blood, and the banner they stood for toppled over.
The hunting fang corpse collapsed, and tens of thousands of warriors fled in helter-skelter. Many of the warriors spat blood and crumpled to the ground halfway, unable to move.
8,000 slave warriors gushed out from the Miracle City and rushed at the remnants of the hunting fang corps.
Although the 8,000 slave warriors couldn’t fight head-on battles, but they were rather good at catching captives.
Apart from a portion of the warriors that went all out and escaped into the depths of the Red Earth Wasteland, the rest of the warriors of the hunting fang corps were captured alive by the slave warriors.
A few hours later, Yang Feng led the 1,000 cavalrymen into the Miracle City unhurriedly.
In the Miracle City, both sides of the road were filled with slaves bought by Yang Feng.
“Justice will prevail!! The Miracle City will prevail!” When he entered the Miracle City, Yang Feng raised his sword and shouted.
“Justice will prevail!!”
“The Miracle City will prevail!!”
“Long Live Master Ian!!”
“Long Live Master Ian!!”
“…”
Bursts of heaven-shaking cheers came from the Miracle City, as the slaves looked at Yang Feng with admiration in their eyes.
With the strength of 1,000 cavalrymen, he pierced through tens of thousands of troops of the hunting fang corps and made it collapse. Only the heroes with extraordinary courage of legends, who received the blessing of gods, could accomplish such a feat.
From amid the zealous cheers, Yang Feng felt a little bit of faith power gather on his body. Apparently, after the battle, his prestige in the Miracle City increased greatly.
Nighttime.
In the prison of the Miracle City.
In the huge prison, there were more than 100 Wizards. The more than 100 Wizards had frightening strength, and they could easily destroy a 2,000-strong army by using magic alone. Unfortunately, because they were poisoned by Yang Feng, they were captured before displaying their strength.
Yang Feng, followed by Babuu as well as 10 oxman half blood beastman experts, walked slowly into the prison.
Seeing Yang Feng walk over, the over 100 Wizards revealed looks of enmity.
Yang Feng swept the more than 100 Wizards with a look and said faintly: “I am Master Ian, the master of the Miracle City. I am here to recruit you. Those who are willing to serve me stand on the left side, and those who are unwilling can stay where they are or stand on the right side.”
The over 100 Wizards stared at Yang Feng with ridicule in their eyes. They were respected Wizards, so how could they be willing to vow loyalty to a wandering Wizard like Yang Feng who had no background and had an unstable foundation, and who offended the Morrince Empire.
Yang Feng waited for a while. Seeing that no Wizard had moved, he clapped his hands.
Babuu stepped forward, drew a long blade, pointed at a Wizard, and asked in a low, muffled voice: “You, are you willing to serve my master?”
The Wizard spat out a mouthful of saliva and said proudly: “Ptooey, you cheap slaves.”
“If you’re unwilling, then die!” Babuu’s eyes were cold. He stepped forward and slashed off the head of the Wizard. Following which, blood sprayed out of the cell and sprinkled on the ground.
The over 100 Wizards were taken aback slightly when they saw this, and then fear welled up in their eyes. They were noble Wizards. No matter where they went, they would receive the respect of countless people. Even if they were captured, many people would entertain them with delicious food and beverages and wait for their masters to redeem them.
Yet now, a noble Wizard had his head slashed off by a lowly half blood beastman slave, which was inconceivable.
The complexion of a Wizard changed greatly and he roared: “Ian, have you gone mad? We are noble Wizards, yet you had a half blood beastman slave kill Camacho. If this spreads outside, no Wizard will ever side with you. The Wizards of the entire Feisuo Plane will be your enemies.”
Yang Feng played it down: “This won’t spread outside if all of you die here, right?”
The over 100 Wizards felt a chill in their hearts when they heard that.
A Wizard suddenly shouted: “I am willing to pay a ransom of 100,000 gold coins, no, 1 million gold coins! I am willing to pay a ransom. Please spare my life and give me back my freedom.”
Wizards were by far richer than ordinary people. But even so, 1 million gold coins was not a small sum for a Wizard. Usually, 1 million was enough to redeem a Wizard.
Yang Feng shook his head somewhat regretfully and said: “Unfortunately, what I lack isn’t money, but Wizards! Since you delivered yourself to my doorstep, you have only 2 options: death or servitude.”
Babuu pointed his blade at another Wizard and asked in a low, muffled voice: “You, are you willing to serve my master?”
The Wizard hesitated.
Without hesitation, Babuu, slashed with his blade, and beheaded the Wizard: “If you’re unwilling, then die!”
Seeing the headless body of the Wizard, the hearts of the Wizards turned cold and were overtook by fear.
Babuu pointed at another Wizard with his blade and asked in a low, muffled voice: “You, are you willing to serve my master?”
The complexion of the Wizard changed greatly. He immediately went to stand on the left side and shouted: “I’m willing, don’t kill me!”
Under the threat of death, the hesitating noble Wizards went to stand on the left side grudgingly. A dozen Wizards who were unwilling to surrender were beheaded by Babuu.
Soon, there was only Pagos.
Pagos asked solemnly: “Ian, if I’m unwilling to serve, will you also kill me?”
Yang Feng replied resolutely: “That’s right.”
Pagos stressed each syllable, saying: “We are all followers of the Weave Goddess. By killing us, aren’t you afraid that the Weave Goddess will get angry?”
Yang Feng sneered: “This is a city that belongs to the goddess. You, who are Wizards, dared to attack a city sheltered by the goddess. I already gave you face by not burning you on the stake like heretics.”
The Wizards shivered, only to feel the air turn colder. Burning someone on the stake was even crueler than beheading them.
Pagos was choked into silence. After a long while, he finally gave a long sigh, saying: “Alright, I’m willing to serve you.”
“Don’t resist!” Yang Feng flicked his finger, and vials of Liquid Metal Nano Robot Elixir flew out and stabbed towards the arms of the Wizards.
The complexions of the Wizards changed slightly, but after looking at the bodies, they kept their mouths shut and let the vials prick their arms.
After the Wizards were injected with the Liquid Metal Nano Robot Elixir, Yang Feng snapped his fingers, the Wizards felt their bodies ache, and they spat out a black liquid, which exuded a fishy stench.
After spitting out the black liquid, the Wizards immediately felt much refreshed.
Yang Feng said faintly: “This potion can dispel the poison in your bodies. Simultaneously, it can strengthen your physical aptitudes. However, the potion will kill you once you have the intent to betray me. I hope that you will take my warning to heart and don’t do anything silly.”
When they heard that, the complexions of the Wizards changed suddenly and they turned quiet.
The mysteries of magic were boundless, and many potions had very mystical abilities. Potions that could control a person weren’t rare.
Yang Feng clapped his hands.
Shortly after, Lina entered with a dozen maidservants and bowed to Yang Feng: “Master, what are your instructions?”
Yang Feng pointed at the close to 100 official Wizards and said faintly: “Take these noble Wizards away and settle them down!”
After bowing to Yang Feng, Lina turned to the Wizards and said, “Yes, master! Sir Wizards, please follow me!”
The Wizards looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and followed Lina outside.
Yang Feng turned, walked to the depths of the prison, and pushed open a door.
Behind the door sat a man, a very beautiful man. It was Amodeo.
“Indeed a man who is more beautiful than a woman!” When Yang Feng entered the room and saw Amodeo, his eyes lit up slightly and he praised.
When Amodeo saw Yang Feng, his face changed slightly and he asked: “Who are you?”
Yang Feng smiled lightly and said, “I am Ian, the master of this city. Commander Amodeo, have you gotten used to living here?”
As if a woman, Amodeo shouted somewhat nervously: “Not at all. It’s so dirty and smelly here! Besides, there’s no carpet, no wine, no incense. I don’t want to stay here a moment longer. Let me go. I’ll pay a ransom. Is 1 million gold coins enough?”
Yang Feng said straightforwardly: “Okay, I will let you go. I hope that you’ll send over your ransom of 1 million gold coins after you leave.”
Amodeo was a little taken aback and then asked: “You’ll let me go just like that?”
Yang Feng replied: “That’s right. There are too many bandits outside, so it may be dangerous for you to go alone. You can choose 10 of your most trusted guards to escort you out of here. We’ll prepare enough water and food for you. I’m going to lead my army to attack the Red Earth City, so please make a detour as much as possible.”
Amodeo asked suspiciously: “What are you up to?”
Yang Feng replied faintly: “The Morrince Empire is powerful, so the Miracle City can’t afford to lose. Maybe one day I will need Sir Amodeo to put in a good word for me with His Majesty.”
Amodeo’s eyes flickered and he revealed a smile: “Okay! Before His Majesty, my words still carry some weight. If the time comes, I will certainly put in a good word for you.”
After the negotiations were finished, Yang Feng immediately released Amodeo and the dozen guards he selected, and gave him enough water and food.
Looking at Amodeo’s departing figure, Clive hesitated for a moment, and then asked Yang Feng: “Sir, there’s something I don’t understand! With great difficulty, we captured Amodeo, who is the commander of the hunting fangs corps, and now we released him. Isn’t that too wasteful?”
Yang Feng suddenly asked: “What do you think of Amodeo?”
Clive answered scornfully: “He’s a good-for-nothing. The emperor of the Morrince Empire must be blind to have him act as the commander.”
Yang Feng replied with a faint smile: “He isn’t a good-for-nothing. Including him, there was a total of 13 men whom the emperor of the Morrince Empire fancied. In the end, he was the only one who survived. The ministers who opposed him died in a 5-year-period. Only Casimiro, the prime minister of the Morrince Empire, remains alive. Tell me, do you think that he’s a simple character?”
Clive immediately inhaled a breath of cold air, and shock overcame his eyes. In his eyes, Amodeo was just a prostitute. For a prostitute to bury ministers of the Morrince Empire, Amodeo had to be quite capable in court struggles.
Yang Feng said meaningfully: “We can’t kill such people. More than that, we have to protect them as much as possible! The Morrince Empire is a giant tree. Without these vermin, we’ll have a hard time contending against it!”
Clive was silent for a long time before nodding resolutely.
