Chapter 213 Reform
Chapter 213 Reform
After the speech, Ash quickly reformed the Anduin branch, initially restructuring it into four layers: himself - the Golden Scale Guard - the Anduin New Army - and peripheral members.
Ash's drastic reforms naturally affected the interests of many people. They thought that Ash was a hero, so he should be kind-hearted and would not kill people easily, so they came up with many evil ideas.
But they were wrong. Ash was a brave man and a killing lord. Even now he didn't know how many lives had died at his hands, whether it was ten million, twenty million, thirty million or even hundreds of millions, no one knew.
Perhaps only [Shura], whose sea of blood has expanded countless times, knows the answer.
But it's just a skill and it can't speak.
In a secret granary, a Golden Scale Guard led a team into the room and asked in a cold voice, "Warehouse Manager, where is Alimi?"
"I'm here, I'm here." A man immediately ran out of the warehouse.
The Golden Scale Guard glanced at him, his disgust deepened as he took in the greasy look on his face.
Although the Mass rebels are still active, their situation is not very good. Food such as meat is never enough.
But this supervisor's face was covered with grease, so you can imagine how much he had stolen.
As soon as he thought of this, the dark golden scales on the Golden Scale Guard's forehead expanded, and he was immediately dressed in a set of ferocious dark golden armor.
Supervisor Alimi felt something was wrong and shouted, "What do you want to do? I am a veteran and my brother-in-law is the prophet's personal guard!"
The Golden Scale Guard remained unmoved and drew the long sword from his waist: "Warehouse supervisor, Alimi, embezzled a huge amount of food and is now sentenced to death!"
"What are you doing, Ford? Don't forget that it was me who gave you food so that you could survive!" Alimi roared!
Ford, the Golden Scale Guard, remained unmoved and stepped forward, saying, "That was the food that the rebels should give me, not you. Why are you pretending to be a good guy?"
The sword flashed, and Alimi fell to the ground immediately. His leg and hand tendons had been cut by Ford.
Ford caught Alimi and dragged him out. There are many types of death penalty. For corrupt officials, more cruel death penalty is needed to deter others.
The new Anduyan army also gathered all the people in the warehouse.
In a small square, everyone was looking at Alimi who was tied to a wooden stake and the Golden Scale Guard who was cutting meat with a sword next to him.
They watched Alimi yell in anger, then cry out in pain, and then desperately beg for mercy. They watched Alimi first lose a layer of skin, then a layer of flesh, until only a skeleton was left.
Thousands of swords piercing the body, they had no concept of the phrase before, but now they have it, a concept that is extremely bloody and dark.
So much so that they can't avoid dreaming about this scene when they have nightmares in the future.
After separating the skin and flesh, Ford stabbed Alimi to death with a sword, while he was still breathing.
He looked at the people in the audience with cold eyes and said in a serious tone: "In the future, if there are corrupt people, they should be like this! Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded, and they looked like they wished they could nod their heads off.
Ford was still a little dissatisfied: "Are you all dumb? Answer me loudly!"
Everyone was shocked and shouted in unison: "Understood!"
Ford nodded in satisfaction and led the team away.
Just after he left, many people vomited out. They were frightened by Ford's ferocious momentum just now, and now that he was gone, they immediately reacted.
In a secret village not on the map, the Golden Scale Guard led a team into a house.
The interior of the house was decorated in style, and the owner of the house was also a middle-aged man who dressed quite elegantly. Looking at the Golden Scale Guards who broke into his house for no reason, the man angrily said, "Hey, what do you want to do!"
"Master Cedric, right? The master came here to ask me why you didn't go to class?" The Golden Scale Guard asked in a deep voice.
"Go to class. What class? Have you paid the tuition?" Cedric snorted.
The Golden Scale Guard narrowed his eyes slightly: "We should have paid you for the lessons, Master Cedric!"
"That's the fee you paid me to come here!" Cedric said arrogantly, "Teaching knowledge is another fee!"
"You mean you want to take the money but don't want to do the job?" The Golden Scale Guard stroked the hilt of his sword, his tone unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"What do you mean I take the money but don't want to do the job? What can I do with this little money from you?" Cedric said angrily.
"Master Cedric, we just asked you to teach people to read." The Golden Scale Guard said, "One hundred gold coins a year is already a very generous reward."
"What the hell is generous!" Cedric was furious when he said this. "I teach a nobleman to read and write for ten gold coins. How many people do you want me to teach now? One hundred people, two hundred people, no, everyone! And they are all peasants. How can they deserve it!"
Cedric's last words made the Golden Scale Guard's eyes completely cold, and he said expressionlessly: "I understand, I will raise your price right now."
But the cold tone made Cedric realize that the price increase mentioned by the Golden Scale Guard might not be a good idea.
Cedric said alertly, "What do you want to do? You dare to imprison me. I can guarantee that no wizard will come to teach you!"
"You don't need to worry about this, Master Cedric. You just need to be responsible for teaching from now on." The Golden Scale Guard stretched out his big hand and grabbed Cedric.
"Hmph!" Cedric snorted coldly, raised his hand and cast a fireball at the Golden Scale Guard.
But the Golden Scale Guard had already put on a layer of dark golden gauntlet on his right hand without anyone noticing.
puff!
The fireball suddenly dissipated the moment it hit the gauntlet.
Break the law?!
Cedric's pupils shrank and he immediately wanted to run away.
But the Golden Scale Guard was faster than he thought. Before he could prepare the spell, the Golden Scale Guard had already grabbed his neck.
The next moment, Cedric was horrified, because the moment he felt the cold touch on his neck, all his magic power was suppressed and he could not move.
A mark on the Golden Scale Guard's right hand was glowing slightly.
Inherent skill: [Royal Power], a skill that allows subordinates to borrow power from the king.
And he had just borrowed power from Ash.
Taking out a seal with his left hand, the Golden Scale Guard pressed the seal on Cedric's head without hesitation.
The moment the seal was pressed against Cedric's forehead, an immense amount of mental power surged out, destroying his mind and then reshaping it, leaving a steel seal.
This is Nas's power, his unique skill, [Holy Mind], a skill that extremely strengthens the mind. Under Ash's guidance, Nas developed the ability of "Mind Seal".
When the seal was removed, Jin Linwei said, "From now on, your only tasks are to teach, eat, and sleep. Do you understand?"
"I see." Cedric nodded dazedly.
The Golden Scale Guard left, and from then on the gathering place had a loyal and dedicated teacher.
