Volume 3: The King of Waste Chapter 421: Assembly
"Although you are not a monarch, the things you have done have always been indulgent to you. You should also know your place."
Xu Shen said indifferently.
Although he didn't like the prison lord's behavior of using human flesh, he also knew that it was impossible to prohibit it. This was the need for the prison lord's ability to grow. Even if he was restricted, the prison lord would still do it secretly, unless he was killed.
"I only have these few meat people to support. I don't think they need to work so hard. At worst, I can just stop supporting them for the time being."
The prison lord said helplessly, although he lived in the inner city and never went out, after retiring from the position of monarch these years, his attention was also shifted to other places. He understood the situation of the eight bottom cities and the frequent outbreaks of ruins beasts.
He even secretly captured a few beasts and found out the reason.
There is something in the End Sea that caused these towns to flee inland. The fact that it could allow these towns to escape on such a large scale is clearly no small matter.
"You don't want to?"
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Seeing Xu Shen's eyes, the prison master swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
He saw the murderous intent in Xu Shen's eyes. If he did not agree, he would probably be regarded as a "useless person" in the other party's eyes.
"Okay, I'll do my best." said the prison warden.
Xu Shen turned and left without saying anything more to him. They didn't have much friendship with each other, and it was impossible to establish one.
“What a hassle…”
Seeing Xu Shen walking away, the prison master muttered something and couldn't help but sigh. He thought that he would be better off after Lord Ling died, but his situation became worse. It turned out that the worst outcome is always in the future, not now.
After explaining things to the prison warden, Xu Shen returned to the parliament.
He felt that the matter of Mo Hai was a hidden danger. These beasts had gradually appeared more frequently since ten years ago, and what they said made it difficult for Xu Shen to guess.
If it was a god, or some terrifying thing, then why would it appear outside the wall now if it had shown up ten years ago?
But there was no movement outside the wall.
Could it be that the thing has never moved?
Xu Shen plans to find out.
But being able to make these ruins reborn must be extremely dangerous. He did not plan to go alone, but summoned the Star Lord, the original owner, and the kings of the seven major families.
…
"The end of the sea?"
"The frequent occurrence of beasts in the bottom city is due to this reason."
In the council hall, everyone gathered together and sat down below. Xu Shen and the original owner sat on the monarch's throne. When Xu Shen briefly narrated , everyone was surprised. The End Sea was a forbidden area in their minds. It was uninhabited and a mysterious place. It was extremely dangerous. No one had ever thought of exploring it, just like no one would want to explore the bright moon in the sky when looking up.
"I heard that the End Sea is extremely dangerous. Our Yu family's ancestral history records that there are a large number of Ruin Beasts floating there . It is a dark and bloody place, and it is also a place favored by Ruin Beasts. It is not an exaggeration to call it the Ruin Beast Kingdom."
The King of the Yu Family said, with a look of worry on his face.
The other family heads were silent. When they learned that Xu Shen was going to such a dangerous place and wanted to take them with him, they were unwilling to do so in their hearts.
"The End Sea is too dangerous. The fact that these beasts can escape here means that our place is safe. I don't think we need to take risks." said a king of the Lin family.
His words received slight nods from many kings, and everyone looked at Xu Shen.
Xu Shen could see the resistance in the eyes of these kings. These guys had been living a life of luxury in the inner city for many years and had become accustomed to the comfort and ease, so they were unwilling to take risks.
"I got the news that the secret of the gods is hidden in the End Sea. This time we are not only going to solve the problem of the Ruins Beast, but also to try to find the secret." Xu Shen said calmly:
"We have reached the limit of life. The only way to go further is to become a god. Whether it is Lord Ling or other monarchs, they are all pursuing this path. If they do not become gods, they will eventually perish. Everyone knows that there have always been legends about gods in the Ruins Sea. That is true."
The original owner looked at Xu Shen in surprise and confusion. He was not sure whether what Xu Shen said was true or false.
The secret of God, such precious information, Xu Shen was actually willing to go with everyone. There must be something fishy, either to attract these kings, or it was extremely dangerous and needed cannon fodder.
The other kings soon thought of what the original owner thought of.
We wouldn't say that the kings present here have extremely high IQs, but they are definitely extremely intelligent.
Conspiracy and fraud are hard to deceive their eyes.
But even though they guessed that even if the news was true and they were just cannon fodder, they still felt a little tempted.
Whether they are cannon fodder or not, we will know only after we go there. Maybe then they can turn the tables and make Xu Shen do things for them.
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. These kings have experienced life and death, and they are not lacking in ambition and confidence.
"The gods sleeping in the Ruins Sea will return sooner or later. When the gods rule the world, we kings will be just slaves, or even not slaves, but just noble food." Xu Shen said coldly: "Whether you choose to take the risk and become a god, or retreat here and wait for death, I don't need to say more."
Everyone was secretly shocked. Would the God of Xuhai return? Where did this news come from?
They looked at Xu Shen in surprise and suspicion, not sure whether what Xu Shen said was true or not, but they didn't dare to gamble in their hearts.
"Each family will select a king to accompany me." Xu Shen said.
Everyone looked at each other and knew that Xu Shen made this request because he saw the time was right, but they also knew that they couldn't refuse.
"Those beasts ran to Dicheng and wreaked havoc. The king of Dicheng should be asked to step in on this matter." The new king of the Mo family said. She was a young woman with a beautiful face. Her features were somewhat similar to Mo Xiaoxiao.
"That's right. Since the Ruin Beast is wreaking havoc in Di City, they should step in." A king immediately agreed.
Xu Shen said coldly: "If the king of Dicheng leaves, who will guard Dicheng? Let you go?"
Everyone was speechless. Although they wanted to say yes, they couldn't say such shameless words.
"I'll give you a quarter of an hour to think about it and discuss it on yourselves." Xu Shen waved his hand.
When everyone heard Xu Shen say this, they knew that the matter was a done deal and could not be changed, so they could only get up and leave to hold a small family meeting outside.
After they left, Xu Shen asked the original owner, "Do you want to go?"
"Is the news true?" asked the original owner.
Xu Shen looked at him and did not answer, but the original owner seemed to understand Xu Shen's eyes. He smiled bitterly, thought for a while, and said: "I'll go. There must be a reason why Mo Hai can let so many Xu beasts escape. I also want to see what it is that can scare these Xu beasts away. Could it really be a god?"
"We might die. I won't blame you if you want to stay. After all, if we all die, this place will be a bargain for the prison master. He might turn this place into purgatory and sacrifice the whole world." Xu Shen said.
If neither he nor the original owner could come back, it was hard to imagine what kind of hell the inner city and the bottom city would become under the rule of the prison lord.
"If we all die, what happens in this world will have nothing to do with us, so why bother about it?" The original owner said with a smile.
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "That's true, let's go together."
Not long after, all the families returned.
After discussion, each family sent out its own king.
Seeing that the Jiang family sent Jiang Yueli, Xu Shen glanced at the old king of the Jiang family, and the other party smiled awkwardly at Xu Shen.
Xu Shen's eyes were cold and he did not respond.
"Go back and get ready. We'll set off together tomorrow morning." Xu Shen said to everyone after looking at the people he had selected.
Everyone stood up and left. After they left, Xu Shen said to Xingjun, "You should also prepare. Your ability will be used this time."
Xing Jun smiled bitterly. They were the top workers around Xu Shen. They could find him for any hard work. Now he was a little unsure whether his ability was just luck or not...
I feel very unlucky to have met Xu Shen.
However, thinking of his current status and the divine weapons and ruins weapons he had obtained, he had everything he wanted, which seemed to be countless times better than being Xu Shen's enemy.
Maybe this is what it means to be in pain and happy.
