Chapter 1328 - 13 Lords!
Chapter 1328: 13 Lords!
At 10 pm sharp, Madoga port turned dead silent. The locals here immediately went inside their houses and barricade themselves. People in the Lawless Lands would rarely go outside when it was near midnight, as the possibility of getting murdered after midnight increased by 500 times..
Usually, besides the guards on duty at the port, no other living humans could be seen walking on the streets.
However, it was a little different tonight as a bunch of men who looked like they were from an organized drug syndicate, blatantly barged into the port. The guards on duty saw them but they instantly averted their gaze, pretending that they didn’t. They even evaded them.
The guards quickly dashed to the other side of the port. When the group of men disappeared from their sight, the head of the guards, as well as the team members, immediately relaxed.
“Head, is there something wrong with those people just now?” The newest member of the guard’s team didn’t understand why they were so uptight so he asked his head in a low voice.
The head immediately stopped in his tracks. He immediately dug his pocket for a pack of cigarettes and took one out with a trembling hand. His hands only stopped trembling when he placed it in his mouth.
A team member came forward and hurriedly lit up the cigarette.
The head took a deep breath and puffed out a mouthful of smoke. After calming himself, he said, “Little Hu, you are new here so let me teach you your first lesson today. If you want to survive in this port, you must have good eyesight.”
“I understand, head.” Little Hu tilted his head and looked admirably at his head. The head had a good impression of this young man so he continued giving him advice. “Did you see the symbol on their chest?”
Little Hu tried to remember the scene he saw a moment ago. He answered with uncertainty, “Head, do you mean the thing on their chest that looked like some insect?” Those people were walking too far from him so he didn’t see the symbol on their chest clearly. He could only tell that it was in the shape of an insect.
“Yes. It’s a black scorpion.” The head’s expression was gloomy.
“Lord Gen!” Little Hu jumped up in fright.
You might not know anyone in the Lawless Lands but you must have heard of the 13 Lords.
Every lord had his own exclusive symbol. Everyone in the Lawless Lands must remember all their symbols so that they wouldn’t unknowingly offend the 13 Lords. If they one day accidentally offend them, they would die a gruesome death the very next day.
Seven-colored scorpion——Lord Gen.
Four-leaf clover——Lord Kun.
Sun, moon, and star——Lord Qian.
Purple lightning——Lord Zhen.
Whirlpool——Lord Xun.
Rain——Lord Kan.
Human torch——Lord Li.
Pangu’s axe——Lord Dui.
Clown’s smile——Lord Card.
Knight——Lord Yu.
Angel wings——Lord Holy.
Poisonous bat——Lord Ghost.
Medusa——Lord Demon.
A scorpion of any colour belonged to Lord Gen’s faction.
“It seems like someone there must have offended Lord Gen.” One of the team members sighed at the misfortune of the people who incurred Lord Gen’s wrath.
The head shook his head. “That might not be the case.” He remembered the huge starship that docked in their port today. He only glanced at it slightly but just the slight glimpse of what he saw was already enough to tempt him.
If you didn’t have the ability to protect your wealth, don’t expose it. Otherwise, it would be cleaned out the next day.
The head took two deep breaths before throwing the cigarette bud to the floor and stomping it. Then, he said to his members, “Let’s go back immediately. No matter what you hear later, ignore it. You must never go out in the presence of the lords’ men.”
Even if they accidentally saw Lord Gen’s subordinates, Lord Gen would order them to be killed based on his way of doing things. Lord Gen would never let someone who knew the identity of his subordinates off.
His team members immediately thought of the gruesome fate if they accidentally encountered one of Lord Gen’s subordinates and their bodies immediately tensed up as they replied, “Yes, head.”
They basically dashed to their base. The first thing they did after entering their base was locking the doors behind them. They had already decided that even if the port was burned or destroyed, they would ignore everything and never take a step outside.
There were close to a hundred men from Lord Gen’s face who infiltrated the spaceport. They walked to the place where the 7th Bugle Call was docked and looked at its magnificent body. The greed in their eyes immediately showed, thinking as though the ship and the goods on the ship already belonged to them. Now, they just needed to take it back and split it among themselves.
The hunk leading the hundred-men group signalled at the subordinate behind him.
The subordinate hurriedly came forward and pressed his hand on the door of the huge ship in an attempt to decode its passcode so that they could enter.
Right at this moment, the closed doors suddenly opened by itself.
This unexpected scene gave the crowd a huge scare.
Looking through the opened doors, it was nothing but pitch black darkness, seemingly like a maw of a monster ready to swallow someone whole.
The group waited for a few seconds but they saw no movement coming from the opened doors. Having no idea what to do, they looked at their head in unplanned unison.
The hunk leading them just stared at the door with a serious expression.
After a few more seconds, he sneered. “Since you know that we’re coming, stop hiding. Come out.”
His voice broke the calmness of the darkness they saw, like a pebble dropped into a calm lake. Suddenly, the sound of metal chains dragging across the ground echoed throughout the spaceport and pierced through their ears to their brain.
The imminent noise gradually started to grow sharper and sharper.
“Be careful.” Their head suddenly shouted with signs of urgency written across his face.
As his voice left his throat, chains after chains suddenly flew out from the darkness behind the door, aiming towards every man with perfect accuracy.
“Ah…”
“Aiyo!”
“Pu~”
“Clang…”
Some of the evaded metal chains pierced into the solid, hard floor made out of superimposed metal sheets. Those men who were unable to evade in time got directly pierced by the metal chains right through their solar plexus. They struggled to take a breath, but everytime they tried, they started to vehemently cough out blood, and with each cough, the chain wrecked through more parts of their body. They didn’t even have the time to yell in pain before they died with their eyes still wide open.
On the other side, the leader barely scraped away with his life from the deadly accurate chain. Just as his mind was thinking of ways to defeat these chains, the scent of blood immediately filled the air around him, and with only one whiff, his face immediately turned grim. He cursed bitterly in his heart. They hadn’t even seen the outline of their unknown opponent but many of them were already dead.
Their enemy was definitely a formidable opponent. The moment the chains flew out of the door, the leader knew that he must be facing a domain realm master.
But, unluckily for him, all the men he brought were in the Qi-Jin stage. Some had just barely reached the optimal peak of Qi-Jin, half a step away from the domain stage. Yet, their opponent managed to instant-kill so many of them single-handedly.
Clang! Clang! The amplified sound of the chains grating against each other continued to pierce their eardrums. Everyone then realized the chains were criss-crossing against each other, as if it was trapping them in a spider web. They were like the helpless prey of a spider, not knowing when the spider would come out and sink its fang into them.
Far away, a white figure suddenly appeared on top of a tall road lamp. He stood on the lamp lightly and watched the show that was happening near the 7th Bugle Call.
“Looks like Lord Holy is interested in them, Angel Zhi.” A voice suddenly rang beside him.
The white figure turned around and saw a young man dressed in a purple down standing on another road lamp smiling at him.
“Isn’t Lord Zhen the same?” Angel Zhi replied nonchalantly.
