September 11th, evening.

As the storm was gathering in the bloody arena, Lear received good news.

The president of the Dragon Fang Chamber of Commerce in the slave market, McKen, came to visit the White Crow Chamber of Commerce in person.

The kind-faced president, with a big belly, was smiling.

"Sir, we have already made some progress on the purchase of the wetland lizardmen you asked us to purchase."

"We have currently collected a total of 1200 wetland lizardmen from seven or eight slave trading associations."

"If you need it now, it can be delivered to you tomorrow."

There was some surprise in Lear's eyes.

1200 people? Good, good!
With this group of people, the number of cold-blooded cavalry will soon usher in an epic expansion! !

"Okay! How much are these wetland lizardmen selling for?!"

McKeon, who had a chubby face and a blessed look, suddenly looked a little bitter.

"Sir, although I have tried my best to lower the price, they haven't dropped much. At least, one piece costs 60 gold coins!"

The price of a normal level 6 troop is between 50 and 100 gold coins, depending on the race.

The price of a level 6 Orc warrior and a level 6 Skaven warrior will definitely not be the same.

These 1200 people are worth 72000 gold coins.

This is definitely not a small amount of money. It would be difficult for an ordinary noble to come up with this amount even if they sold their property.

McCann was also a little worried. Although the young man showed many extraordinary qualities, he might not really be willing to spend the money.

Managing a territory requires expenses in more than one aspect, including weapons, armor, medicine, food, cloth, salt, etc. Which one doesn't cost money?

Lear showed some satisfaction and patted the other person on the shoulder.

"Then follow this price."

"People, send them to the fourth block tomorrow"

"Brendo, go get five thousand gold coins as a deposit."

"Yes!"

The new manor is still under renovation and reconstruction, so he will not move in for the time being, but there is no problem in settling these wetland lizardmen.

The price issue is understandable. Last time, I had the support of intelligence and got a big advantage, so I was able to buy 200 wetland lizardmen from McKen at a low price.

This time it’s completely different if you take the initiative to buy. Since you have the demand, it’s naturally impossible for others to sell at a loss.

But it doesn’t matter. In business, only when both parties make a profit can there be a possibility of continuing cooperation. Unilateral advantage will not last long.

Mikan had a big smile on his face.

"Sir, I will arrange it when I get back."

He also didn't expect Lear to be so straightforward.

"Then the craftsmen and mud dwellers you want."

"We can arrange everything. We will take as many people as we can. Funding is not a problem."

3000 pieces of armor made him a huge fortune of 60 gold coins.

The arms trade is definitely a money-grabbing activity.

Macon's mind became active, his eyes turned, and he spoke softly.

"Sir, I also heard that there are a group of level 10 gray-backed tauren warriors for sale."

"There are about 300 people."

"The gray-backed minotaurs are powerful and loyal. As long as they are recognized, they will not have any other intentions."

"But the price is as high as 500 gold coins each. I wonder if you are interested."

Lear became interested.

The grey-backed minotaurs are very famous, and these guards can often be seen at the gates of some large estates.

The 3-meter-tall burly body holding a heavy battle axe looks very handsome.

He is also brave in battle and very popular.

Now, the Dragon's Breath Mercenary Group is on the verge of collapse, so it could use some reinforcements.

Money is a bastard, earn it again after you spend it.

The blacksmith shop is still producing for him day and night, and after testing the market over the past few days, he feels confident.

“Bring it along.”

Mikan's smile widened and he nodded repeatedly.

He doesn't make money from the wetland lizardmen, but he can make a small profit from this group of gray-back tauren.

Delicious.

After the transaction was completed, McCann did not stay long and turned away with excitement.

But when he got on the carriage, he paused slightly and looked up worriedly.

What businessmen like him fear most is sudden changes in their living environment.

If there are any major changes, they will be the most affected.

At night, Lear also stood by the window, looking up at the blurry bloody arena.

The twelve ferocious half-human, half-beast statues looked even more mysterious under the cold moonlight.

The whole city became restless under the influence of the phantom.

Soon it was late at night, but Lear did not go to rest, but waited as before.

Today is the 4th, and the early morning is when the intelligence is refreshed.

The moment time jumped to number 5, the intelligence system suddenly appeared.

[The intelligence system has cooled down and can be refreshed. Do you want to refresh? ]

I felt excited and took a deep breath.

Sure!

The moment the choice was made, the information began to be updated again——

[1. On November 11, the bloody arena will be opened. At that time, the arena will appear in the sky. This is the way for the god of gladiators to spread his power. Wearing the silver mask in your hand can prevent being spied on by outsiders. (10 star)]

[2. There is a special treasure hidden in the No. 1 Death Arena. The first person to win 100 games in a row can get it immediately. (3 stars)]

[3. The black gold stones sold at the seventeenth stall at the entrance of the black market are all ancient lizard eggs. Let the wetland lizardman hero Haggs swallow them to increase their potential to 4 stars. (3 stars)]

[At 4 am on the 8th and 10th, a noble from the capital of the Griffin Empire will be ambushed and killed when passing through the seventh block. The treasure he carried, the Blood of Madness, will fall into the sewer in front of the Bronzebeard Helmet Shop. (3 stars)]

[5. Altus is one of the seventeen holders of the Faceless Hermitage. He worships the evil god extremely, but has never made contact with him. Calanis can use her tyrannical power to subdue him directly. (3 stars)]

1 piece of 1-star intelligence, 4 pieces of 3-star intelligence!
This information surprised Lear.

This is the first time I have encountered such a situation, and there is not a single 2-star intelligence.

But he likes it.

I calmed my mind and started reading from the first one with great anticipation.

This piece of information really doesn't have much value, it just has the property of being immune to detection.

1 star value is not low.

But starting from the second piece of information, the value increased sharply——

In Death Arena No. 1, you can get special treasures by winning 100 games in a row!
Although it didn't specify what the treasure was, the 3-star intelligence would definitely not be too rubbish.

Moreover, this is an act of the god of gladiators to convey his faith, so the other party will definitely not be stingy.

After fighting for half a day in a bloody mess, all you get in the end is a piece of trash, and it’s just a bullshit belief you spread.

With the silver mask, the death fight would not cause much harm to him.

You can leave anytime you want.

Article 3 - Ancient Lizard Eggs, which can allow Hags to be promoted.

Lear was amazed.

This guy Haggs is really lucky. He has been receiving continuous intelligence reinforcements since the beginning.

Is this the fourth time?
After completing the promotion this time, you will be able to catch up with the current first-tier heroes.

As the enemies the territory faces become stronger and stronger, Hags, who is at level 12, is already a little exhausted.

He was also unwilling to give up this hero who had always followed him in expanding his territory, so this wave of strengthening undoubtedly came at a very timely moment.

The fourth piece of information - crazy blood.

Nobles from the capital will drop
This is interesting, these nobles obviously came for the bloody arena. So who are the people who ambushed them? What do they want?
What good thing is this crazy blood?

While thinking, I looked at my cloak.
If he goes there in person, he will be too conspicuous. If he lets the Mist Shadow lurk in the sewer first, he can take the enemy and leave.

Isn't that just pure white picking?

It was easy for this incorporeal life to slip away from underground.

It’s a gift from God, don’t miss it.

Fifth, information about the Faceless Men’s Order.

This coincided with his idea - to first conquer a force that occupies a seat to open up the situation.

Now, intelligence directly gives specific goals, and there is no need to grope around.

He let Karanis do it herself, and he believed that she could give a perfect answer.

In general, except for the first piece of information which is not very valuable, the other pieces of information updated this time are all very good.

Even if it's not as good as the special intelligence from last time, it's still pretty cool.

I fell asleep in a happy mood.

Early the next morning, Lear was awakened from his sleep by Brando.

President McKen has brought 1200 wetland lizardmen and 300 gray-back minotaurs to the manor in the fourth block.

Lear's sleepiness disappeared immediately and his mood became very good.

After a quick wash, he immediately went with Brando to the manor he had just bought.

As you enter the gate of the manor, you will see a large group of people lying on the ground.

Yes, just lying on the ground.

Looking around, all they saw were wetland lizardmen. None of them were awake at the moment; all were unconscious.

Lear looked at him with a strange expression. What was going on?
At this moment, McKen strode over with a dozen guards. After a simple greeting, he excitedly pointed to the ground.

"My lord, I have accomplished your mission and brought all the wetland lizardmen with me!"

"What are they?"

"Hahaha, you know that the wetland lizardmen are so brutal that even the Ring of Slavery can't suppress them, so we came up with a good idea - just knock these guys out, so that the previous situation won't happen again!"

McKen is still traumatized by the unruly character of the wetland lizardmen. After much thought, he finally came up with a solution.

No matter how ferocious you are, can you wake up and bite people after you faint? !

Sure enough, with this operation, the casualty rate was greatly reduced, and the energy consumed in previous management was also saved.

Now, take it easy.

Lear found it somewhat amusing, but said nothing, which saved him the trouble.

His eyes scanned the area and stopped at the gray-backed minotaur that was tied with chains.

These level 10 soldiers look very ferocious.

The three-meter-tall body looks like an iron tower, and the thumb-thick chains seem a little slender.

The muscles on his body seemed like they were cast in steel, with clear contours and full of strength. The two curved horns on his head were sharp at the tips, some of which were stained with dark blood, and were obviously not decorations.

Everyone had red eyes and glared at everything around them.

You can feel its ferocity just by looking at its appearance.

Lear nodded with satisfaction.

"The gold coins are already on the carriage outside."

McCann understood immediately.

"Then I won't bother you. I'll send the remaining slaves over as soon as possible."

After saying that, he turned around and left happily, going back to count his money.

This deal made him earn more money than he had earned in the previous three months.

Comfortable.

And more importantly, I have established a relationship with this big client and can earn more in the future.

Lear was also in a good mood.

These slaves were exchanged for equipment produced by the blacksmith shop.

The real cost is actually pitifully low.

The previous development idea was indeed correct - establish one's own industry, trade mature products with the outside world, and earn resources to develop oneself.

The results are now evident.

I am focusing on developing the territory. I want to get thousands of wetland lizardmen at once, but I don’t know how long it will take.

After calming down, he gently lifted the cloak on his back, and a surging black fog immediately spread out, covering the surroundings.

Shielded from any possible prying eyes.

At the same time, a sacred and inviolable pressure filled the black fog like a tide.

The gray-backed minotaur in the distance saw this and immediately felt uneasy.

The human boy who looked so tiny now seemed to have become a mountain.

Standing tall and upright, it can hold up the sky and crush the earth.

The breath it exuded made their souls tremble.

She screamed with her eyes, wanting to struggle and resist.

But the chains held them tightly, and they could not break free.

The pressure was like a landslide.

As they watched in horror, the power emanating from the tall young man, with his supreme aura, penetrated through them and poured into their minds.

With an absolutely domineering attitude, he left an indelible mark in the soul.

The same was true for the unconscious wetland lizardmen.

When the black fog dissipated and the manor returned to peace, less than a minute had passed.
Lear's aura subsided and he regained his composure.

The rose bracelet on the back of her hand is blooming even more beautifully at this moment.

The remaining scent in the air was absorbed silently.

When he came to his senses, the gray-backed minotaur's eyes when he looked at Lear immediately changed.

There was no more hostility or anger. The intimacy and strong sense of submission coming from their minds made them unable to resist at all, and they fell to the ground suddenly.

The attitude is extremely humble.

The chains on their bodies also fell to the ground with their movements.

I don't know when, the shackles were released.

When Lear saw this, he was in a very good mood.

After gaining authority, the strength of his soul increased significantly, and this level of enslavement could no longer put too much pressure on his soul.

We can handle even ten times the number.

"Tauren, go and wake up the wetland lizardmen."

"Brendo, have someone prepare food and water. Let them stay here for a few days."

"The situation is a bit chaotic. It's best to fill up the manor's cellar and storehouse so you don't go hungry."

The grey-backed minotaur in front immediately took action, awakening the wetland lizardmen on the ground one by one.

After these swamp creatures woke up, their eyes were hazy at first, and then they looked around with extreme vigilance.

When he saw Lear, he immediately let down his guard and bowed respectfully.

Watching the people below waking up one after another, Lear felt even better.

Including the Minotaur, that's an army of 15 squadrons!!
Comfortable.

They just haven't been equipped with weapons and armor yet, but that's not a problem.

In addition, once the wetland lizardmen are brought back to the City of Witness and trained, the number of cold-blooded cavalry will be close to two thousand.

This is the legendary troop of the Lizardmen.

The initial level is as high as level 11.

In Loran City, such an army is the elite among the elite, the absolute trump card!
It's really worth looking forward to.

There are also night elves. When the time comes, we can train them together and no longer lack manpower to explore the underground world.

Everything is moving in a good direction. (End of this chapter)
