Chapter 688: The Uninvited Guest at the Banquet
“Give us back our money!”
"The money has been used up, and the military has asked them to help collect souls."
"All the money is spent? What about the promise we have given! What about the promise of eternal life!"
"Didn't I say that the military suddenly ceased to fight, and there was no soul to trade with the devil."
"Then let's get your soul!"
"Then you give me money and let me bribe the military and start a war!"
At the banquet, a large group of high-ranking officials and nobles fought so much.
The members of the Sadr family who were besieged by countless people are now in a state of turmoil and are often attacked by others from time to time. They are either detained in the head or swept a bottle of wine.
In fact, we can't blame these businessmen for being so angry.
Before, they despised the price of the empire's strengthening lifespan was too high and the strengthening effect was poor, so they were not willing to pay so much money to keep the empire slaughtered as a fat sheep.
So when the Sadr family stood up and said that there was a way to transform people into special spirits and completely live forever, they chose to cooperate with the Sadr family on the spot.
The chambers of commerce began to raise funds wildly and began to try their best to assist the Sadr family in completing the transaction with the devil.
After the soul has accumulated a certain amount, the transaction has been theoretically completed.
But it’s just theoretically. How can you not be cheated when making a deal with a devil? You must know that these guys are the best at playing word games!
Hundreds of chambers of commerce sold money to make up money, and then the Sadr family went there in person to ask the military to help collect the souls of the red worms on the battlefield.
As a result, the soul collected a lot, but at the checkout, the devil greatly reduced the number of transformation places on the grounds that the red worm has low IQ and poor soul quality.
This has led to many chambers of commerce spending a lot of money, but they can't get anything.
This situation was nothing, after all, they still had hope. As long as they continued to raise funds to collect souls and continue to complete transactions, this place would always be their turn.
But the problem is that now the front line suddenly stops fighting, and that will be a mess.
All the money was given to the military and asked the other party to help collect the soul.
The soul was also taken away by the devil in exchange for the few places to transform.
Now that the transaction has suddenly stopped, these chamber leaders are asking for money but not having money. They are not doing it at ease.
Just as the scene was in chaos, a heavy impact suddenly came from the side.
Everyone who heard the sound quickly calmed down and turned to look there.
As a result, an old man with a cane walked out of the side door with a gloomy expression.
"Okay, everyone, things are a foregone conclusion, no matter how much they are, it will be useless. The most important problem to be solved now is where to continue to get the soul."
Hearing this, the surroundings fell into silence, and the merchants looked at each other and frowned.
In the end, a leading businessman stood up and spoke coldly.
"You said it lightly, but tell me where to collect souls? The Empire does not allow us to collect souls of intelligent creatures. The only one that meets the standards nearby is the red worm plane. But now this plane has also ceased to fight. The Empire will never take the initiative to go to war with the group of brainless insects. Tell me where to find a large number of souls!"
Hearing the words of the big merchant, the patriarch of the Sadr family showed a smile on his face and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"This is not a problem for you. You just need to find a way to get money. We promise to provide eternal life quotas at regular intervals."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding merchants couldn't help but start to discuss in a low voice. The big merchant looked at the head of Sadr deeply, suddenly took a step forward, and whispered close to him.
"Clan leader, don't think we don't know what small things you are doing. You buy a lot of arms, probably to avoid the military and find other ways to get your souls yourself, right? And you have been embezzling these souls, not sharing them with us, and even used our money to buy weapons to arm yourself."
The words of the big merchant made the smile on the Patriarch Sadr froze. Before he could move, the big merchant had already gritted his teeth and added.
"I don't care where you get your souls, but our efforts must be rewarded. You must get half of the quota for these souls, otherwise you will be defeated by the death penalty. We will report this matter and will be punished and will be bankrupt. And you, then, you Sadr family! No one can live from top to bottom!"
The threat of the big merchant attracted the patriarch Sadr to look at him deeply, and nodded after a moment of silence.
"Don't worry, the money won't be spent in vain. I will definitely give you the quota."
"I hope so."
Looking at the big merchant retreating, the Sadr's face became even more gloomy.
The other party said it well, their family did find an additional way to obtain souls, and it was an illegal method that the empire did not allow.
That is killing people and taking away souls!
They did not dare to kill their own people, nor did they dare to kill people under the nose of the empire.
Otherwise, the empire will find out! It is all light to exterminate the clan!
They chose to cooperate with the devil, and the other party opened the time and space channel, and sent their own private troops through the tunnel to kill people in other small worlds adjacent to the devil plane.
To put it bluntly, it means being a thug for the devil and providing soldiers with free help to collect souls.
Nearly half of the money paid by the merchants were used to buy various weapons.
Facts have proved that for people in small planes, the various advanced weapons of the United Empire are purely dimensional reduction strikes.
With these weapons, the Sadr family, a very ordinary large town family in the empire, was rubbing wildly according to a barren small plane that had not yet developed technology, and wherever they passed, there were corpses everywhere.
They themselves also knew that massacres of intelligent creatures on such a large scale was contrary to imperial laws.
Because the United Empire advocates the integration of all fusion forces, even if it is a cat and a dog, as long as they are wise and know how to learn, they are qualified to become citizens of the empire.
Because this kind of existence can become a suitable imperial soldier with a little training, and the natives can also educate and enlighten the mind and serve the empire.
Massacre of indigenous people will only cause the heartbreak of other ethnic groups and will be more likely to lose an arm with endless potential.
Once the empire knows what their family is doing, even if this small plane has not been in contact with the United Empire, the empire will definitely not tolerate such behavior and will definitely kill their entire family.
But in the face of the temptation of eternal life, the Sadr family could no longer stop, even as the patriarch.
When the first immortal person appears in the family, the carnival of exchanging human life for eternity is hard to stop.
Seeing that the patriarch's comfort, the merchants around him were finally no longer excited. The son of the patriarch was finally relieved. While signaling the guards next to him to inform the kitchen to prepare new wine and dishes, he smiled and picked up a glass of wine and spoke loudly.
"Everyone, please believe our family. Our Sadr family really wants to cooperate with you to help everyone live forever, so please give our family some time..."
boom!
Before the words were finished, a loud bang suddenly came into the ears of everyone present.
A large hole was broken open on the spot, and violent winds poured in from outside the house, and the strong wind even blew the guests present to fly backwards.
As for the son of the Sadr Clan Chief who was standing at the door, this guy had been knocked into a blood mist all over the sky by a black shadow flying in.
The sudden attack caused everyone present to be stunned.
And under everyone's surprise gaze, the figure that flew in like a cannonball slowly stood up.
The face was completely covered with a mask of the mask, and the face with a rabbit mask was slowly turned, and a pair of red eyes quickly scanned the crowd.
The next second, the figure's arm shook and turned into a cannon barrel on the spot, pointing to the crowd around.
Chapter completed!
