I am a living immortal.
Chapter 254: The one who goes up, kill!
Deep in a vast oasis lies a magnificent palace. The extremely precious water from the outside world is wasted carelessly in this palace, and the water is even used to raise ornamental fish.
These fish are stunning, their fins and tails swaying in the water like gauze, their scales reflecting colorful light in the sunlight, which makes everyone marvel at them. However, there is only one drawback, which is that this kind of ornamental fish has very high requirements for water quality.
This means that the water in the pool needs to be changed every day, and the water consumption is so high that it is prohibitive.
However, this fish can be seen in more than one place here.
There are also some fruit trees and flowers that require a lot of water to survive, and they are planted all over the garden.
In the deepest part of the palace, a man in silk was lying on the bed, enjoying the dance. Several women in gauze-like clothes were dancing gracefully, and the spring scene suddenly appeared.
The table next to him was filled with various fruits. A beautiful woman was half-kneeling, peeling the fruits bit by bit and feeding them into the man's mouth.
The man ate and said casually, "The conditions you offer are not enough for me to go to war. As you can see, I have enough water, food, and jewelry."
"Your Majesty, this is wrong. These ornamental fish, fruits and vegetables, water, and even royal jewelry are just ordinary things. Please look, Your Majesty." A man in a cloak took out a round bead from his pocket.
"I want a box of jewels." He blew a breath at the beads, and the beads instantly turned into a cloud of smoke, gathering on the ground into a box of jewels. The cloaked man walked forward, took out two pieces of gold, and knocked them against each other, making a crisp sound, and then handed it over.
“This is a real gold nugget.”
“This…” The man who had been lying lazily on the bed just now, the king of this oasis, stood up with his eyes wide open, took the gold brick and shook it. Both the weight and the touch were gold.
He immediately looked at the warlock beside him.
The warlock took the other piece of gold and nodded.
"What is this? How did you do it?" the king asked urgently.
The cloaked man laughed and said, "Your Majesty, please be patient. This is the treasure of the country I mentioned earlier. It is called the Mirage Pearl. Whatever you think of, it will become reality."
"As long as there are enough mirage pearls, the king can have whatever he wants. These jewels are just ordinary things, such as the nectar and jade dew that the immortals enjoy, the immortal peaches that prolong life, as well as magical weapons and magic treasures of the immortals. The king can easily obtain them."
"Your Majesty, aren't you moved?"
"But... with such a treasure, how can we be their opponent?" When the shock subsided and his rationality began to return, he frowned and asked.
The cloaked man shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you must know that no matter how powerful a treasure is, it can only be used by mortals. Mortals will be killed by swords and arrows..."
"As long as the king orders the army to march, it will only cost the lives of a few useless poor people. In this desert, there is a shortage of water, food, and fruits and vegetables, but there is no shortage of people!!"
"No matter how many people die, can they still possess such a treasure that would be of great use to Your Majesty? Does Your Majesty think it's worthwhile to trade human lives for the elixir?"
As the cloaked man enlightened him, the king's eyes were filled with longing. It must be said that the cloaked man's proposal was very attractive. He also grasped the king's psychology and knew what he cared about and what he didn't care about.
The man called the King exchanged a glance with the sorcerer beside him. He was obviously moved by the words of the cloaked man. It was a very good deal to exchange the least valuable human life for precious treasures.
"What you said makes perfect sense."
"Let's discuss this further." Although he didn't agree directly, his meaning was clear.
The cloaked man sneered inwardly. It was indeed easy to fool these royal nobles. However, he didn't show it on his face, and even a smile lingered in his voice: "Then congratulations to the king."
"No need to be so polite, sir, please take a seat."
The scene suddenly became cheerful, however, the cheerful atmosphere did not last long.
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" sound. Several people subconsciously looked up and saw a big hole in the roof of the palace. A figure fell into the palace and looked around.
The scene was in chaos for a moment. The sorcerer protected the king behind him and shouted, "How dare you! Do you know where you are? Someone...?"
However, before he could finish his words, the warlock's face changed drastically. Before he could fight back, his chest was pierced and he was slammed against the wall with such great force that he died with his eyes open.
The warlock's death immediately caused everyone present to fall into silence. The king's dissatisfied expression froze and he fell onto the bed.
The visitor ignored him and tore open the scroll in his hand, finally setting his sights on the cloaked man.
At this moment, the cloaked man was so scared that he kept hiding in the corner. His expensive silk cloak was worn out because of crawling on the ground. Halfway through crawling, he felt like a thorn in his back. He turned around and saw that the assassin was walking towards him step by step.
Tears and snot started coming down instantly.
"No, no, no, don't kill me... I have a lot of money, I have jewelry, magic weapons, as long as you let me go... let me go, I will give you everything..."
The assassin acted as if he didn't hear it, or even if he did, he ignored it and came to the front of the cloaked man in a few steps.
"Don't kill me... please... I... ahhhhhh..."
The water creature from Mirage stepped on the cloaked man's head and exploded it with a loud "bang", splashing water everywhere, and the screams stopped abruptly.
There was even a little blood splashed on the king's face. He subconsciously touched it, and the sticky and wet touch made his eyes roll back and he fainted on the spot.
After seeing the other party is dead.
The man jumped up and disappeared on the spot without saying a word. The guards at the door then arrived late.
The palace was in chaos, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that this man was here to kill the cloaked man.
This kind of slaughter was happening simultaneously in different places across the desert, whether in the palace, on the streets, hiding in houses, or among the guards. Whoever came forward was killed! No nonsense, quick and decisive.
In just three days, all those who harbored ulterior motives died. Many people did not understand why, but only those who took risks knew why they had brought about this disaster of killing. No one was spared. With the previous group as an example, all those who dared to instigate were given a loud slap in the face. Regardless of whether they were right or wrong, or whether they were men or women, they would all die.
Su Mu was going to tell those old dragons to do something tricky? Wishful thinking!!!
