Chapter 189: A Big Business
As night fell, so did the battle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The orc army suffered heavy losses, some died, some fled, and some became prisoners.
And the black-robed army of the human race, no one died until the end of the entire battle, and those deep wounds that were visible to the bones did not seem to pose any threat to the black-robed people. They still walked as fast as they could, retreating to Sunset Fortress, leaving the flattered and at the same time dazed human soldiers to clean up the battlefield.
"Carry the sacrificed soldiers back to the fortress, and leave the vultures and hyenas to the despicable orc corpses. Xia Zuo, who had killed his old enemy, explained and left in a hurry.
And after returning to Sunset Fortress, he did not convene the soldiers to hold a celebration banquet.
When it was completely dark, he quietly walked out of the room, taking the bodies of the black-robed men and soldiers to the outskirts on the other side of the fortress.
The vegetation gradually increased, and the plains gradually became dense forests, and in the moonlight, the strangely shaped branches looked like devils with teeth and claws. After walking for a while, a shivering and strange cold wind blew, rustling the leaves, and at the same time, a figure shrouded in black robes appeared behind Xia Zuo.
"Hello, sir. Xia Zuo hurriedly turned around and said respectfully.
"General Xia Zuo, is the toy I gave you any good?" A low hoarse voice sounded, and the man lifted the hood of a black-robed man, revealing a hideous wolf head.
"That's right. Xia Zuo subconsciously took a step back, no one wanted to get close to a vampire who could kill people, even the king-level powerhouse. Then, he looked around and asked, "What about His Royal Highness the Third Prince and Count Sakura?"
"They're gone. All future cooperation will be carried out by us. He said. Douglas lifted his hood. A strange smile appeared on the pale face of paper.
"Well... Okay, I guess that would be pleasant. As he spoke, Xia Zuo swallowed his saliva.
At this moment, he suddenly regretted his previous decision. Of course, even if he did it all over again, Xia Zuo would not dare to disobey Aduvis's order, unless he wanted to make his family disappear from the world and let his career go to the abyss. Whether it's the former or the latter, it's enough to break him.
"Let's get started. Douglas smiled and asked, "How many people did you bring with you this time?"
"Four thousand. Xia Zuo said that if you count those who are missing arms and legs, the number will definitely increase several times, but unsound corpses cannot be transformed into werewolves. No, to be exact, the corpse of an unsound Terran that is transformed into a werewolf will also be a disabled werewolf with low combat effectiveness.
"Not bad, plus the previous 1,000 people. We will have 5,000 mighty warriors with the power of eternal life. Douglas nodded, and then whispered an obscure incantation.
Look at the blood glittering the corpses. Xia Zuo was slightly distracted, and there was something wrong in his heart, these were heroic warriors who sacrificed their lives for the country, but now, they were being transformed into ugly and disgusting werewolves by the evil spells of vampires. He promised that the names of these people would be engraved on the Heroes' Monument, but instead of being remembered by the world, they would become evil demons and be spurned by the world.
Shazo knew that he was not a good man, and in order to ascend to the position of general, he framed or murdered many people who got in his way with the help of Aduvis.
But in the face of this scene, he couldn't help but be a little shaken.
It has nothing to do with good or evil, it is human nature, because his own kind is being poisoned.
At this moment, Douglas, who had finished the ceremony, spoke, "It's time to wake up, dear General Xiazo, and go with our secret warriors." He woke up Xia Zuo, who was deep in thought, and continued, "Remember not to expose it, otherwise we will all be finished." ”
"I know when to put them on the field. Xia Zuo nodded, looking at the person who was slowly getting up from the ground, and his body was undergoing drastic changes.
He can foresee the future of the situation, and with this great victory, the orcs will definitely put away their contempt and send the real elite to join the battlefield, not the new recruit eggs among the orcs. When the time comes, the werewolf forces will not be unscathed.
"Don't worry, when my strength increases, I can turn all of these werewolves into human form. Douglas seemed to see Xia Zuo's concern and said with a smile. Transforming 5,000 werewolves has given him a considerable increase in strength, and I believe that in a few years, he will be able to break through to a high-level vampire, and at that time, all humans who have made him grovel will pay the price.

In the evening, Amsburg, Castle of the Lords.
"Dear Brother Albert, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon. Baron Jasmine walked into the hall and greeted him cordially, with a faint smile on his face. "It's just that I'm curious, why are you here so late?"
"Your Excellency Baron Jasmine, I have come to visit you. Albert bowed slightly, and took out a statuette made of gold, which was less than ten centimeters high. On closer inspection, the small sculpture was almost identical to Baron Jasmine. "A small gift, thank you for giving a 5 star rating on mission satisfaction. He said sincerely.
"Oh, my brother Albert, don't be so far away, we're friends. Baron Jasmine performed exaggeratedly, but his hand involuntarily reached for the sculpture.
"Before that, I have a little bit else. With that, Albert withdrew his hand and slipped the sculpture into his trouser pocket.
"What is it?" Baron Jasmine was stunned, and his dissatisfaction flashed.
"It's a big business, I don't know if you're interested. Albert smiled, then looked at the guards in the hall casually, "Your Excellency, if you don't mind, we can talk slowly in another place." ”
Baron Jasmine frowned, a little hesitant, it was not a good idea to be alone with a mercenary, although the mercenary in front of him was well-known and an elite member of the Mage's Guild.
"Well, that's okay here. Albert shrugged his shoulders indifferently, coughed lightly, and said slowly: "I think many people know that I have a deep friendship with a wealthy businessman, and in the last few days, that rich businessman friend of mine has obtained a batch of good things, but he just needs a partner with a background. ”
"Rich merchant friend?" Baron Jasmine muttered, and then suddenly realized, "You mean Pu ......" He quickly closed his mouth halfway through, and then, he changed his words and lowered his voice, "Come upstairs with me, no one will disturb us there." ”
He was sure that Albert's friend of the wealthy businessman was Kyle of the Dandelion family, which had been reported in the Alston Times under the headline "The Magical Genius of the Mage Guild and the Patriarch Candidate of the Dandelion Family". The article speculates that in the future, the Mage Guild and the Dandelion family are likely to be united by their close relationship, and at that time, both Terran empires will be in danger.
Of course, most people think of this as an afternoon tea joke.
And Baron Jasmine doesn't care what the future holds, even if what the article says is true, the only thing that can make him excited is status and money.
Working with the candidate heir of the Dandelion family, something he never dared to think of before, it was definitely a lot of wealth, so it must not be shared. Most of his guards had been bribed by Count Sakura, and he had to find a quiet place. (To be continued.) )
