Chapter 445: The ransom and the challenge
Translator: 549690339
As the Holy Dragon City soldiers in charge of security were deployed, it did not take long for the muffled sound of shackles clanking to be heard from the entrance of the underground city.
The sound of metal rubbing against the ground was a constant, and it was obvious that a large group of people was slowly moving upward. It was obvious that they were the elven captives that had just been released.
!!
Yue qianhua and the others stared at the entrance with a complicated expression on their faces.
Not long after, two Holy Dragon City cultivators in black armor, each carrying a long saber and a rifle, walked over.
Their faces were completely covered, only revealing a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes.
The two cultivators glanced around and silently retreated to the shadows, perfectly blending in with them.
If one didn’t look carefully, they wouldn’t be able to see the two cultivators at all, as if they didn’t exist.
After discovering this situation, Yue qianhua and the other two looked at each other, and their expressions became even more serious.
“Hua la, Hua la ~~~~”
As the sound of metal clashing grew closer, an elf mercenary finally walked out of the underground city slowly.
The mercenary was young and very handsome, but his complexion was very poor.
His thin face, slow pace, and dull eyes made it hard for anyone to believe that he was a proud elf!
The arrogance and conceit of the past had now disappeared, leaving only numbness and decadence.
Seeing the miserable state of the elf mercenary, Yue qianhua and the other two frowned. They wanted to say something, but in the end, they didn’t.
The victor was King and the loser was vilified. They were already extremely lucky to have fallen into the hands of the Holy Dragon City and not be killed. What more did they want?
As for preferential treatment for captives, hehe, to the non-humans, there was no such thing.
The mercenary from the elf clan was looking around in a daze. When his gaze fell on Yue qianhua and the other two, there was finally a slight change in his expression.
The elf mercenary, who was as determined as iron and didn’t even frown when he was slashed by a blade, had tears in his eyes.
At this moment, he finally realized that these three clansmen in front of him should be the emissaries who had come to save him.
His heart, which had long been numb, began to beat violently, causing his chest to feel stifled, as if something was about to burst out.
At this moment, he really wanted to shout out loud to express the bitterness in his heart.
But at that moment, a Big Foot in a military boot landed heavily on his back, causing him to stagger forward a few steps and almost fall to the ground.
At the same time, a cold snort sounded in his ear. It was cold and ruthless.
“What are you daydreaming about? you’re blocking the door, are you going to let anyone out?”
A Holy Dragon City soldier glanced at him coldly, then returned to the ranks, no longer paying him any attention.
Yue qianhua and the other two’s mouths twitched. After glancing at the elf mercenary, they continued to look at the entrance of the underground city.
At the brightly lit entrance of the underground city, elven mercenaries were constantly walking to the surface. Then, they gathered obediently according to the orders of the Holy Dragon city’s Warriors.
These unruly fellows had been completely taught a lesson and had no temper. They were as obedient as little sheep.
After half a day, there were finally no more captives. The staff of the underground prison began to register and review them.
The mercenaries of the elf clan came forward one by one and reported their names, levels, and other information. After verification, someone would remove the shackles on their feet.
The ransoms were different for different ranks of mercenaries, so they had to be calculated one by one.
More and more of the mercenaries regained their freedom, and they staggered to the back of Yue qianhua and the other two. Their originally ashen faces began to have a trace of life.
While rejoicing at their salvation, they also secretly swore in their hearts that they would never return to this place even if they were beaten to death.
The terrifying experience of being locked up in a small dark room almost drove them crazy!
When the last elf mercenary was released, the staff member had already completed the statistics and reported the total ransom to Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen turned around and looked at Yue qianhua. After that, he saw the green soul Lord standing behind her step forward and hand over a bag of brains to the staff member.
After checking and confirming that the number of brain beads was correct, Tang Zhen ignored Yue qianhua and the other two, turned around, and left.
Tang Zhen was really too lazy to bother with this group of people. Moreover, they were the ones who needed his help. Therefore, there was no need to give them a good expression.
Yue qianhua and the others didn’t have time to discuss the next cooperation with Tang Zhen. What they had to do now was to comfort and take care of these mercenaries so that they could recover as soon as possible.
After all, when they attacked the Cold Moon Tower, they still needed to risk their lives!
After gathering the captives together, Yue qianhua and the others took them out of the inner city.
At the entrance of the inner city, the group of fairy clan cultivators who had been waiting for Yue qianhua finally saw her figure. They also saw the group of Haggard-looking clan members.
However, they looked even worse off than the Wanderers!
Seeing this, an elf cultivator couldn’t help but curse,”This group of lowly humans, they really deserve to die!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly sounded, ” “Kid, do you dare to repeat what you just said?”
The elf cultivator frowned and turned to look in the direction of the voice, only to see a well-built golden-haired man staring at him coldly.
The golden-haired man was wearing a set of black armor and had a cigarette in his mouth. He looked very relaxed.
A strange-looking black pistol and a walkie-talkie were hanging loosely on his waist.
Although he looked carefree, the killing intent he exuded was almost tangible. He narrowed his eyes and glared at the elf cultivator.
Their conversation immediately attracted the attention of all the elven cultivators and onlookers. They all looked at the two of them.
The elven cultivator glanced at the brawny man with disdain and snorted,”I’ll just say it again, what can you do to me?”
The blond man blew out a smoke ring and replied in a seemingly casual tone, ” “I’ll say it again, I can’t do anything to you, Yingluo!”
Hearing this, the elf cultivator’s eyes were filled with even more disdain as he sneered,”Since you don’t dare to do anything to me, then shut up immediately, you reckless fellow!”
The elven cultivator had been holding back his anger when they were blocked at the city gate. They had been treated with respect wherever they went, and they had never been treated so coldly.
Now that he had encountered this golden-haired human, he had found the perfect opportunity to vent his anger.
When the onlookers heard this, their expressions changed, and they all looked at the blond man with contempt.
He was so unyielding just now, but when the other party asked him a question, the blond man immediately cowered. This was too embarrassing!
The blond man’s expression didn’t change. He just snorted and continued, ” “What I mean is, I won’t do anything to you. But if you repeat it, I’ll kill one of you. Do you understand?”
As soon as he said that, the surroundings fell silent!
