Miracle Throne Chapter 365

Chapter 365: Spider count

There were several dozen bandits of different races that had tightly surrounded the small town's hotel.  Each person was shooting into the hotel with the box in their hands. They clearly weren't normal people because each arrow contained strong spirit energy that could easily pierce the little stone house.

That orc boss was shot to death by the arrows.

"This is the consequences of offending us!"

The serpent race leader summoned several large fireb.a.l.l.s.

The small and tattered inn finally collapsed from the explosion.  The raging flames burned the hotel to ashes and under that high temperature, the corpses were turned into charcoal.

"Humph!"  The serpent race head waved his hand, "They should be dead already.  Pull out the corpses and let everyone have a look at it. I want to see who it was that dared to kill my Si Ke's subordinates!"

"Yes!"

The fierce bandits rushed over to put out the flames and immediately began to look for the corpses.

"Boss, there's no one here?"

"What did you say?"

The serpent man Si Ke was stunned.

This is impossible.  They were clearly here, could those people have evaporated?

A voice came from behind them at this time.

"Hi, are you looking for me?"

Si Ke turned around and people people appeared behind him, less than ten meters away.  It was as if they had been standing there a long time ago, but Si Ke did not notice them at all.

These four humans and one elf.

Aren't these the people who had offended his people!

Now they were strangely appearing behind him unscathed.

Meng Yingying looked at the other side and said in a disgusted voice, "What kind of race is this, they're even uglier than the last one!"

The serpent race was not a spirit beast, but its own race.  The bottom half of their body was a snake's body and the top half was a human body, but their skin was still covered in fine scales.  His eyes were cloudy and cold, his voice was low and numb, and his tongue was also forked, so he looked very ugly.

These fellows should be in the same group as the lizard man.  This motley crew had all kinds of races, clearly this was a group of bandits that dominated the area.

"d.a.m.n, daring to play tricks on me!"

Chu Tian revealed a taunting face, "Playing tricks on you?  Are you worthy!"

Si Ke's forked tongue popped in and out as his serpent eyes were filled with rage, "Do you know who I am?"

"f.u.c.k, does it matter to me who the f.u.c.k you are!"  Chu Tian impatiently waved his hand, "He is truly loud, who can make him shut up?"

Chen Bingyu and Dongfang Haoran stood out.

Si Ke drew out a trident, "You dare challenge the great Si Ke just depending on you.  Overestimating your strength, die!"

Si Ke's three meter long tail kicked off and he jumped off the ground.  He charged forward like a green meteor, with a dark green poisonous snake source spirit appearing, surrounding him in a green poison cloud.

A poison attributed source spirit?

This kind of source spirit was a bit hard to deal with!

But this serpent man was only in the 7th Awakened Soul Layer.  Although he could be considered in the True Soul Realm and could be considered a senior elder if placed in the Three Great Clans, being considered an expert in the Southern Summer Country, meeting Chu Tian's group, he could only be considered unlucky.

Finally Chen Bingyu directly grabbed the trident.

Si Ke revealed a sinister cold smile, "Seeking death!"

Large amounts of green poison gushed out of the trident and instantly sprinkled onto Chen Bingyu.  This poison had a strong corrosiveness to it that could easily corrode a True Soul Realm Cultivator's protective spirit energy.  This girl actually grabbed this attack, she was no different from a dead person.

Who would have thought that Chen Bingyu would have no reaction at all.

This was a strong corrosive venom, but it could not corrode through the Starlight Immortal Body and could not injure Chen Bingyu at all.  Instead Chen Bingyu released a cold energy that sealed all of the poison. The cold ice spread across the trident, moving towards the serpent man's body.

The serpent man began to retreat when he saw this was bad.

Ah!

A pitiful scream rang out.

Si Ke did retreat, but a pair of frozen arms holding the trident shattered off and fell to the ground.

This fellow's hands had been crippled!

Everyone was shocked.  Si Ke was not weak, but he was defeated this easily and the human girl did not even use her full strength.  This meant that this human's strength far surpa.s.sed everyone's here.

"You, you…..If you dare kill me, you will definitely regret it!"

Si Ke retreated in terror.  Dongfang Gan's source spirit turned into a flaming giant sword.  With a step of his feet, he flew out and the sword glow instantly appeared in front of Si Ke.

"Wait a minute!  I am the great Spider Count Kanun's subordinate….."

He did not even get to finish.

Dongfang Gan had already pa.s.sed through him and the terrifying sword glow did not slice his body in half, it had turned him into a pile of flesh.  There was also a deep mark that formed in the ground!

"Boss is dead!"

"Everyone, escape!"

This group of lackeys usually only bullied people in small villages, how could they have ever met such a powerful person?

They were scared s.h.i.+tless in just an instant.  Chen Bingyu and Dongfang Gan charged forward. There was a series of pitiful cries and begs of mercy, but in just a few seconds, everything returned to normal.

If they didn't turn into ice sculptures, they turned into piles of flesh.  In short, there was not a single person left standing.

"Si Ke is dead!"

"Si Ke is dead!"

This group was clearly the local bullies.  When the serpent man and his subordinates were all killed, the other people in the small town all revealed looks of horror!

"Everyone calm down, everyone calm down!"  Chu Tian was feeling very good. He raised his hands and said, "You don't need to thank me or wors.h.i.+p me.  Saving the people from evil and punis.h.i.+ng the wicked, this is what I should do!"

Vivian doubtfully said, "Big brother Chu Tian, they probably won't thank us."

Why?

Chu Tian was a bit stunned.  When he looked over the crowd, he saw these people weren't weeping in joy, but rather they all revealed looks of terror.

"Si Ke has been killed!"

"This little town is done for, this little town is done for!"

"d.a.m.n, where did these people come from?  It was hard for us to establish this little town, but it was destroyed by them!"

"Quickly leave!  We can't withstand Kanun's rage!"

These people did not feel any joy, rather they felt like a disaster was imminent.  They looked at Chu Tian's group, but they did not have any joy in their eyes, rather it was filled with anger.  If it wasn't for their strength, they would have tied they up already to plead for forgiveness from Kanun!

"What is going on here?"  Meng Yingying scratched her head, "Could it be by killing some bad people we were in the wrong?  What kind of logic is this!"

When she saw the eyes filled with anger, fear, and blaming.

Meng Yingying felt that her own views were subverted!

Killing bad people is considered wrong now?

Chu Tian knit his brows.  These fellows did not seem simple.  The power structure of the Forest of Chaos was structured and these fellows could have been under another power, so they could act unbridled in this small town.  The reason why the small town was not smashed could be because of this power's protection!

"You can't blame them."  Chu Tian patted Meng Yingying's shoulder, "It's hard for these low influences to form a small town and many villages depend on this small town for survival.  Now that they might not be able to protect it, of course they would hate us."

"What do we do?"

"We're not wrong either!"  Chu Tian gave a shrug, "Could we just allow them to bully us and swallow that anger?  That is not my style! You don't need to think too much, there are many things in this world that are hard to cla.s.sify as right or wrong.  We should look at these fellows' place and see if we can find any clues. It's best if we clearly investigate the count behind the serpent man, I don't want to cause trouble without any information."

Who was the Spider Count Kanun?

Vivian hadn't heard of him before, so he shouldn't be anybody important!

Si Ke's group were slavers in the Forest of Chaos, but after meeting the Spider Count, they became his subordinates.  They were the Spider Count's agents in this small town, collecting protection money and other fees. Of course, most of this money was moved up.

In a place like the Forest of Chaos, one could not survive without a strong enough protective umbrella.

The Spider Count Kanun's fame was not small, it was his fame that protected this small town from being smashed by outsiders.  Si Ke as his agent naturally had no one go against him, so he acted in an overbearing manner in this small town. Not only did he crush the other villages, he also promoted the businesses of his people.

"This poor beast doesn't have any property at all!"

Chu Tian searched the place Si Ke lived.

This a dungeon that held over a hundred people and was filled with Si Ke's items.  Chu Tian found around one-two hundred low grade source stones which wasn't a small amount to normal people, but it could not enter Chu Tian's eyes!

"Open the dungeons and let the people out."

Chu Tian naturally did not have any interest in becoming a slaver, so he opened the dungeons and let the people go.

However, at this time, there was a special slave that caught Chu Tian's attention.  This was a man who was only one meter and thirty centimeters, being even shorter than Vivian.  His muscles were very developed and he had a red beard covering his face. His age was around fifty human years.

Dwarf?

Why was there even a dwarf!

The dwarves were famous for their blacksmithing!

Each dwarf was blessed with talents in blacksmithing, so the price of a dwarf slave was not low!  The most important part was that dwarves usually lived in mines. If he could find a single dwarf, how could Chu Tian not find the high level ores he needed?

Chu Tian quickly had him stay.

Dongfang Haoran carried the dwarf as he walked over and placed him in front of Chu Tian.

The dwarf was mumbling a lot while his little eyes formed circles, looking very angry.

Meng Yingying did not understand the dwarf language, "What is he saying?"

Vivian explained, "The dwarf is treating us as bad people!  He thinks we're also slave traders!"

Chu Tian explained everything in the dwarf language before discussing the matter of obtaining ores.  After all their trip into the Forest of Chaos this time was primarily to buy ores.

It was impossible for the dwarves not to know about ores.

This was something they depended on to eat!

The dwarf half doubted Chu Tian.  He spoke in a heavily accented human language, "You aren't Kanun's lackeys?"

"So you can speak the human language!"  Meng Yingying rolled her eyes, "We don't even know who Kanun is.  You just need to tell us if there are ores or not, we need them!"

The dwarf revealed a dejected expression, "There are many ores in the dwarves' mine tunnel, only….."

"Only what?"

The dwarf revealed a look of anger, "Our mine tunnels were taken away!"

"Taken?  Who did it!"

"The Spider Count Kanun!"

Good.  Chu Tian patted his head.  This really did go in a circle!

But speaking of this, just who was this fellow?
