Zhao Hai thought that it would be very difficult to get these slaves to stand in a line since they had never been to school. However, he did not expect that as soon as he gave the order, the female slaves quickly lined up in two neat rows. Their speed was comparable to the time when Zhao Hai was in school.

Lin stood alone at the side. Zhao Hai glanced at Lin and knew that this was because he was a man. He was the only male slave in the castle right now, so he stood there alone.

The speed at which these slaves lined up far exceeded Zhao Hai’s expectations, so he was momentarily stunned and looked at the slaves in confusion.

Zhao Hai did not know that these slaves had been trained since they were young. Standing in line was almost their instinct.

Of course, those slave owners would not count the number of slaves every day, but no matter if these slaves went out to work or returned, they would first stand in line and be numbered off. This was to prevent anyone from running away.

Zhao Hai did not know about this, so when he saw that these people lined up so quickly, he was stunned. However, he immediately came to his senses. He knew that this was not the time to think too much. He immediately said, “Count off.”

He shouted this almost instinctively, but the slaves immediately began to count. The last number was 34, which meant that there were 34 female slaves and one male slave in the courtyard.

Zhao Hai nodded and said loudly, “Just now, there was news from the mountain. A large number of magical beasts and undead creatures are invading. There might be a battle later. Stay here and don’t go anywhere.”

Fear appeared on the faces of the female slaves. If a human army attacked, they were not afraid. As long as they did not resist, the other party would not kill the slaves. Because slaves could be sold for money, as long as they did not resist, they were safe most of the time.

But this time, it was magical beasts and undead creatures. For these two things, gold coins were useless. In their eyes, they could not tell who was a noble and who was a slave. In their eyes, humans were prey. There was no difference in status.

At this moment, a few more slaves walked over. They were also women. Ju was with them. Zhao Hai asked them to count too. Including Ju, there were a total of 50 females. All the female slaves had returned.

When Zhao Hai saw that Ju had returned with these female slaves, he knew that Meg might have returned too. However, she did not enter the inner fort. She should be waiting for Wood and the others.

Zhao Hai did not go to the outer fort. He knew that if he went now, he would only cause trouble for Merlyn and the others. He might as well wait here.

Zhao Hai glanced at the slaves and turned to Ju. “Ju, watch them. Don’t let them run around.” Then, he turned to the slaves and said, “I’m going into the castle to get something. Listen to Ju and don’t run around.”

With that, Zhao Hai quickly walked into the castle. There was an underground warehouse in the castle. He had gone there to take a look. All the resources bought by Grimm were there. Now, Zhao Hai was going there to store those resources in his Space Farm to prevent them from being ruined by those beasts.

This underground warehouse was really big. It took Zhao Hai a while to finish storing the things. Then, he ran upstairs to collect the books and other things.

Zhao Hai had realized that Grimm seemed to have bought those books to nurture those slaves. Otherwise, he would not have bought so many books on magic and battle aura. Those books were very important. Not only were they a key to understanding this world, but they were also a way for the Buda family to nurture talents.

Zhao Hai quickly went upstairs and stored everything in the study, even the tables and chairs. After all, the Space Farm’s storage space was not limited.

Zhao Hai had just finished putting away the things in the study when he heard Merlyn call him from outside. He quickly ran out of the house and saw that Merlyn, Wood, and the others had already returned. They were all gathered in the inner fort.

Zhao Hai heaved a sigh of relief and turned to Merlyn. “Grandma Merlyn, is everyone back?”

Merlyn nodded and said, “Everyone has returned. The gates are also closed, but I don’t think those magical beasts will arrive so soon. Young Master, why don’t you go to the Space Farm?”

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “There’s no need to do that now. Grandma Merlyn, let’s go to the outer fort walls to take a look. I haven’t seen magical beasts and undead creatures yet.”

Merlyn looked at Zhao Hai worriedly and said, “Young Master, this is too dangerous. What if something really happens?”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It’s okay. Don’t I have you guys? I just want to see those magical beasts and undead creatures and see how many of them there are. If there are too many, we will retreat to my Space Farm. If there are not many, we will fight them off.”

Merlyn was stunned, but she did not say anything else. She was still very confident in her ability. Just like Zhao Hai had said, if there were not many magical beasts and undead creatures this time, she could really defeat them.

Zhao Hai waved his hand and called Ju and An over. He said to the two of them, “Stay here and watch them. Don’t let them run around.” With that, he walked to the wall with Merlyn. Wood and Rock followed closely behind Zhao Hai. Meg also stood behind Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai was helpless about their actions, but he had no choice but to let them follow. Zhao Hai knew very well that if he did not let them follow, he might not be able to go to the wall.

Merlyn and the others thought that the undead creatures and poisonous magical beasts would not be too fast, but to their surprise, when they reached the wall, they found that those creatures had already reached the top of the mountain and were moving down.

Moving at the front was a group of rat-like creatures. They were about a meter tall and over three meters long. They had light green long fur, and had mold-like things on their feet, as well as a thick and long tail.

Among these rat-like things, there were a few that were larger. They were two meters tall and had colorful fur. From the looks of it, they were the heads of these things. There were more than a thousand rats. Zhao Hai’s hair stood on end.

Behind this group of creatures was a large group of snakes!

There were countless snakes of various sizes and colors. The largest snakes were colorful and were a meter thick. They did not look like an easy target.

Behind these snakes were insects of all kinds. These insects had a special characteristic. They were huge. Even a spider was more than a meter tall, and the larger ones were about two meters tall. Of course, there were also some small insects, but those small insects were not to be trifled with. Every one of them was very agile and fast. They moved in and out among the insects.

These insects were all colorful and looked toxic. Zhao Hai’s heart sank. There were already so many snakes, and there were more insects than snakes.

At this moment, the rat-like magical beasts at the front had already approached the moat outside the fort. Those rat-like things clearly knew how to swim. They ran into the moat, and the water in the moat instantly turned green.

Zhao Hai’s expression turned ugly again. He finally understood why there were no fish in the river. It would be strange if there were fish in the river after those poisonous rats took a bath.

Merlyn walked to Zhao Hai’s side and said, “Young Master, let’s go back. There are too many magical beasts. We can’t deal with them.”

Zhao Hai nodded and looked at the mountain. He realized that another type of magical beast had come out. This time, it was crocodile-like magical beasts. They were huge and colorful. Among these crocodile-like magical beasts were some skeletons.

In Zhao Hai’s view, they were indeed skeletons. There were skeletons of humans and beasts in every size. Slowly, more and more skeletons appeared on the mountain.

Merlyn pulled Zhao Hai and said, “Young Master, let’s go.”

Zhao Hai nodded, but he suddenly felt that the sky seemed to have darkened. Zhao Hai looked at the sky in confusion and saw a group of flying magical beasts. The flying insect-type magicals beasts did not fly very high, while the bird-type magical beasts flew very high. Zhao Hai’s expression changed. With these magical beasts, it would be too easy to invade the fort.

Zhao Hai immediately nodded and said, “Let’s go. There are flying magical beasts. We have to make those slaves retreat into the castle. Otherwise, it will be too late.”

Merlyn saw it too. She immediately shouted, “Wood, quickly return to the inner fort and send those slaves to the castle.”

Wood responded, and his body slowly flashed with yellow light. His speed became much faster, and he ran towards the inner fort. Rock carried Zhao Hai and ran straight to the castle. Fortunately, he had also used battle aura. Although he was very fast, he was stable and did not let Zhao Hai suffer.

Merlyn’s body flashed aqua blue. She was no slower than Rock. Meg’s body flashed with green light, and she was much faster than Rock.
