Chapter 534: Chapter 396: Courting Death_1 Chapter 534: Chapter 396: Courting Death_1 To be honest, ever since they arrived at Sky City, the high-ranking officials of Seth had been envious of the city.
For the Kingdom of Seth, who had occupied the Fighting God City, a relic from the Holy Demon Sect, they had always considered themselves the successors of the Holy Demon Sect. In the eyes of these officials, the city they were in should belong to the Fighting God City, and therefore belong to them!
Only their Magic Kingdom of Seth is worthy of owning this Sky City!
If at first they were merely envious, when they discovered that there were only a few people in Sky City, these officials were immediately tempted!
Just as they said to King Gandhi, with the exception of Duanmu Huai and his few subordinates, everyone in Sky City is from Seth. If they unite, would they not seize the city?
As for Duanmu Huai? Hahaha, if a fight is out of the question, they could always resort to poison!
In their view, Duanmu Huai, a mere brute, probably obtained Sky City by chance. Otherwise, why would there be so few people in the city? If they were in his place, they'd have treasured the city and would not possibly leave it unattended!
As for his ability to control Sky City, they guessed he must have some kind of magical item. Once they got their hands on it, they would be able to control the city too.
By then, what would they have to fear? If they stayed in Sky City, wouldn't they effectively become the eternal rulers of Seth, and no one would be able to overthrow them!
If all else fails, they could use force. They had a force of seven million people at their disposal, and they did not believe that any man, no matter how powerful, would dare to challenge such a number!
They were not wrong in their assumptions; Duanmu Huai had no intention of taking on seven million people. At most, he would return to the Tribunal, find a cosmic space track to send out Sky City, and then take it back. That's all.
The rest, the universe would teach them a lesson, there was no need for him to intervene.
Just as it is often said in games, one Astarte could straighten out a planet, but this doesn't mean that Astarte could kill billions of pigs on a planet so quickly.
At this point, putting resources to good use is important.
Like an extinction order or something…
The Seth officials had well-calculated plans; they were completely oblivious to the fact that the gaze King Gandhi was now casting on them was murderous.
In fact, King Gandhi was itching to strangle this bunch of bastards right now.
Are you goddamn spies sent by the Demon Clan? Is there such a thing as setting someone up?
Of course, King Gandhi would never do such a despicable thing. Firstly, he personally wouldn't want to, and secondly, he plans to further cooperate with Duanmu Huai. Especially after meeting with Ann and Greiya, he realized this was a great opportunity.
He was aware that Seth would definitely have to rebuild after repelling the Demon Clan. But rebuilding requires resources. If Seth turns to Herman or Lisas, they will definitely get the short end of the stick.
After all, on this continent, Seth, Lisas, and Herman are like the Shu, Wei, and Wu during the Three Kingdoms period, loving and killing each other. Given a chance to eliminate the other, they would never let it slip by.
If Seth's reconstruction falls into the hands of Herman and Lisas, they would not stop till they have skinned Seth alive.
But… Manaria is different!
King Gandhi didn't know where the Magic Nation of Manaria was, but at least he knew it wasn't on his continent. It was probably on the other side of the sea. King Gandhi naturally understood the principle of befriending the distant and attacking the nearby. Even if the price is somewhat higher, at least it's safe, unlike with Lisas and Herman who would stir up trouble, right?
Besides, Duanmu Huai had personally stated that Manaria was stronger than Seth, he didn't think Duanmu Huai was merely mouthing off. This meant that the Magic Nation of Manaria might be even more formidable than Seth!
Under these circumstances, you damned fools want to stir up trouble for me?
You must be spies sent by the Demon Clan!
At this moment, King Gandhi could no longer tolerate it.
“Guards!!”
Just as these Seth officials were immersed in a dream of becoming the masters of Sky City and living a carefree life there, they heard King Gandhi's furious roar. The next moment, they felt their bodies tighten as they were completely bound by the restraining magic cast by King Gandhi.
“Your Majesty?”
This left the Seth officials completely dumbfounded. But before they could react, a rapid footsteps echoed through the room, and Yamada Chizuko, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Seth, rushed in with guards.
“Your Majesty! What happened? This is…”
The puzzled Yamada Chizuko, who had rushed into the room with the guards, looked at the several Seth officials lying on the ground. King Gandhi, with a gloomy face, pointed at these officials.
“These idiotic traitors are unpardonable. Cut them down!”
“Your Majesty?”
Hearing King Gandhi's words, Chizuko was taken aback. Although she had always wanted to cut these bastards down, it was just a thought. But now… was King Gandhi serious about it?
“Cut them down! Cut them down for me!”
King Gandhi didn't dare mention why he wanted to kill these idiots. If word got out and Duanmu Huai found out he had idiots like this under him, whether they could still maintain a good relationship would be a different matter!
