Chapter 284 City Defense Test (Part I)



Chapter 284 City Defense Test (Part I)

Doing some spying, this group of people were laughing at the corpses of the fallen people of Riona.

They sure do have a terrible personality. I can't say I also don't, but laughing at dead people is no joke.

Ghosts and undead spirits are a thing, and these things are monsters you don't want to mess with. As someone who uses these powers, I know firsthand how annoying these creatures can sometimes be.

I wouldn't be surprised if a group of malicious, vengeful spirits would appear and haunt these magicians.

But considering this doesn't seem to be their first time doing so, they probably had countermeasures against them.

Anyway, now that I was inside the Luminite Mine, I could see many bright yellow lights around the cave.

With the Luminite lighting up the mine, you wouldn't need to bring in a torch. The cave was filled with these resources. I was surprised it had only taken them now to find it.

Following the group of magicians, they surveyed the place for hours. The desire to keep this place to myself had increased, seeing how much I could get.

While thinking, a vision came across me, and I could see the seas of blood. This mountain was already a warzone, but more blood would be shed.

I had gotten bored of these magicians, as all they were doing was discussing their plans after monopolizing the mines. Dreams were great, but that dream would be dead with me here.

Now that I know what to expect, all I need to do is somehow get all these forces into an all-out war.

This mine alone could keep a country in the sixth realm from going bankrupt. If countries were to hear of this, it wouldn't just be small nations coming in here but also the higher powers.

Leaving the cave, I unconcealed my presence and invisibility. I was preparing to head back and wanted some excitement. Maybe someone would come over to me, seeing me traveling alone.

To my shame, I had met no one after a few hours of walking back. Chrome was still bustling, and I could see the place being busy. After I returned to my place, everyone in the room welcomed me back.

"Kelsy, get the commander." The people of Eurgesh would be a nuisance, with the mine being a priority. That's why I decided I would do something about them. After a while, Kelsy took the commander to my office.

"City Lord, what do you need of me?" I loved how he was subservient to me. Even when reputedly called up, he still didn't seem to mind.

"Get most of the soldiers out of our borders. I will stop the people of Eurgesh from coming. We have something else more important to do." The commander didn't want to agree with my idea but wondered what was more important.

"In the east, a Luminite Mine has been found. The Luminite Mine alone could keep our small city running for at least thousands of years." I wasn't exaggerating when I said that.

The size of that mine wasn't something any mine on Earth could compare to. I wouldn't be surprised if Gods from the higher realm would take an interest in it.

The commander's mind didn't register the words I spewed out. That much money sounded unbelievable in the eyes of others.

"City Lord, may you repeat that?" He said it with a silly expression that didn't suit him.

"All you need to do is explore the mountain with a small troop. Make sure your troops are hidden, as many forces could wipe you out." I wasn't going to repeat what I said. I'm the boss. If my subordinates can't listen, then that's on them.

"Take this. This should help your troops stay low." What I gave the commander were ten invisibility talismans and ten presence nullifiers. It would only work for an hour, but that should be enough for what it's worth.

"City Lord, may I ask how you will stop the people of Eurgesh from attacking?" While I may have said I would stop them from attacking, the city lord was skeptical.

"Well, instead of telling you, why don't you check it for yourself?" Experiencing this firsthand should allow the commander to know what's up.

Before we start this experiment, I will need some test subjects. I remembered when Linsey herself had first given me prisoners as test subjects, allowing me to use my powers on them. It has been a year, and I still remember it like it was yesterday. Those were great times.

"Commander, round up the prisoners. We will use them as subjects for this city's defense."

"How many prisoners are we talking about? There are some we shouldn't let go of ever." I didn't know how many prisoners we had, but the numbers seemed low.

"Get me ten. Ten people should be enough." Ten would make the perfect example for me to check if any errors could be fixed along the way.

"City Lord, we only have seven prisoners." The commander had said this, unsure how to break the news to me.

"Seven?" Considering how small this city is, I shouldn't be surprised.

If there were seven, I wanted to see what kind of people the commander had said that some of them shouldn't be let out. Escaping should be impossible as long as I put a tracker on them.

"Then bring me to them. I want to see what makes them so special." Figuring out what type of person I was, the commander sighed and left without saying another word.

The prison in Chrome City was located underground from the Commander's headquarters. If he were a corrupt man, I wouldn't be surprised if he kept women or men he fancied under there.

Once we arrived in the prison, there were about fifty cells, with seven of them being used, all isolated. The prisoners were all cuffed with a unique cuff, giving them the power of a normal Earthling child.

Maybe if I were to take an interest in one of the prisoners, I would let them live.
