Chapter 168 - The Domineering Corps Part 2
Duo i looked at the winding caravans, and breathed out, “What are the carriages carrying? Is there anything of value?”
The girl opposite of her said happily. “The carriages all carry precious magic diamonds from the country, Nisa. There are a total of 100 carriages and 1000 boxes of magic diamonds!”
“Gasp!” Duo i couldn’t help but inhale sharply. It seed like this rchant group wasn’t from here, but another country, Nisa. Otherwise, how could they gather so many expensive magic diamonds?
Thinking for a bit, Duo i carefully made so calculations. One carriage could carry 10 boxes, and each box most likely had 100 magic diamonds. That ant 100 carriages had a total of 10,000 magic diamonds. Each one was worth about 50,000 gold, so the value of these 100 carriages was 500 million. This was equivalent to half of Nisa’s semi-annual total magic diamond output!
Duo i clenched her teeth and loudly declared, “The transport section from the thief group should co and imdiately begin moving. Transfer all of these things and bury them in a secret location. For the short term, these things cannot be used. Otherwise, we’ll definitely end up inviting trouble!”
All the girls showed expressions of admiration after hearing Duo i’s words. That’s right…one could rob rchant groups however they pleased, but one couldn’t steal from another country’s rchant group. Otherwise, the opposite party would dispatch large groups to chase after them. If the other country didn’t kill them, the grudge would never end. No matter how large a group was, there was no way they could go up against an entire country, even if Nisa was only a small country.
Seeing the transport group drag the carriages away from the rchant road one by one, Duo i couldn’t help but survey her surroundings. It was no wonder that this rchant group had had so many powerful warriors and mages. In addition, not a single person had tried to run away, even as they were being completely annihilated. It was all because they were another country’s rchant group!
Duo i shook her head, and stopped herself from pondering this any further. She would not take pity on those guys; since they had decided to float around outside, it would be hard for them to avoid being attacked from the dark. If they were scared, it would’ve been better if they hadn’t co out at all. The Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes’ last experience on the rchant road had allowed them to mature.
One of the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes then ran over and said in a low voice, “Duo i, the rchant group just sent so news: our 108th car of rchandise was stolen again. This ti, it’s the work of a powerful thief corps. Their general headquarters are located in…”
Nodding her head, Duo i quickly fished out a map, and quickly circled a location on it based on the girl’s report. She then added a note to it.
After everything had been completed, all of the carriages that had been on the rchant road had been completely moved. Duo i looked around and said strongly, “Now that this has happened, soone will surely co and investigate the situation here. Moreover, we’ve probably accumulated a ton of liabilities. That’s why…the Dark Angels thief group will temporarily beco the Blood Angels rcenary group and suppress that thief group, getting back everything that they owe us!”
The Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes unanimously agreed with Duo i’s decision. After handing the aftermath for the thieves’ logistic section to sort out, the girls removed their black thief flag and raised their crimson Blood Angels flag. They then began to head towards the locations of dozens of thief headquarters marked on the map; since they dared to steal the Golden Angels rchant group’s goods, then they had to prepare themselves to be massacred by the Blood Angels rcenary group.
During the next month, the entire Gold Triangle entered turbulent tis. The Blood Angels rcenary group attacked and purged all of those that dared to steal the Golden Angels rchant group’s goods. A total of 68 thief groups were pulled up from their roots, and completely eradicated.
anwhile, Duo i had received Suo Jia’s letter of reply. Within the letter, Suo Jia had scolded their cowardice; so what if the rchant group was from another country? They were a thief group, their business was the exchange of looting each other. If the group was afraid of the repercussions, then they might as well co ho and start babysitting kids. Even if the opposite party was another country’s rchant group, it was no excuse for their behavior.
The thief union was a high existence within the country. They received protection from the thief alliances throughout the entire world. rchant groups from other countries were still rchant groups, and thus were included within a thief group’s target range. There was no need for bearing any additional responsibilities; as long as one could undertake the other party’s ambitions, everything was OK!
In the letter, Suo Jia also told them that nobody would ever want to resist them that stubbornly. With their speed and strength, even if they couldn’t defeat their opponent, they could run. If they couldn’t outrun the enemy, then they could wear the opponent down. Those that couldn’t be worn down…could be taken down with the help of the potions. Nobody that couldn’t be defeated in these ways existed within the Holy Light Empire. The Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes weren’t incompetent, nor were they just using the potions to play around.
A few days later, after all the thief groups had been eradicated, the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes once again changed their flag to that of the Dark Angels thief group, and openly put the 100 carriages of magic diamonds onto the market. In a re instant, the entire country was completely shocked!
At the sa ti, the decimation of the 68 thief groups had allowed Blood Angels rcenary group to gain large amounts of treasure. Not only had they made up for the rchant group’s losses, they had even earned millions tis more in profits!
Such fearless robbing instantly made the Dark Angels thief group and the Blood Angels rcenary group beca the enemies of everyone in the rcenary and thief realms within the entire Gold Triangle. Even the Golden Angels rchant group had been spread as completely abnormal. After all…since their nas were so close, and their flags were almost identical as well, even idiots would be able to guess that there was a relationship between these three entities.
Not only that, but just as Duo i had worried about, the Nisa country was not willing to just take things lying down. Even if they didn’t care for their losses, there was no way they could lose face. Moreover… that was half of Nisa’s magic diamonds supply. How could they ignore such losses? That’s why…Nisa dispatched a large brigade of people and horses, swearing that they’d completely destroy the Dark Angels thief group!
The current circumstance was like adding frost to snow. Originally…the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes could’ve simply put away their flag, and vanished without a trace so that the Nisa troop would keep searching aimlessly. However, Suo Jia didn’t allow this, since it would be letting a chance to train slip away. According to Suo Jia’s orders, the girls could change their identities, but they could only choose between the identities of the Golden Angels rchant group, the Dark Angels thief group, and the Blood Angels rcenary group. In other words, they had to display one of the three flags.
The Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes felt as if they were advancing dauntlessly in wave upon wave, through countless perilous situations, toppling mountains and overturning the seas. Before they had even finished killing off the first wave of enemies, the second wave would already arrive. Not long after their arrival, the third wave would also join in. Helpless, the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes could only keep running away, and continue to encounter endless obstacles.
Originally, the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes’ speed made it easy for them to run away. However, Suo Jia had commanded them to never leave the three major trade routes in the Gold Triangle, even if they died. Even if they did manage to escape these boundaries, they’d end up being obstructed by other groups, and the delay would allow their pursuers to catch up once more!
The entire Holy Light Empire was montarily paying close attention to the movents within the Gold Triangle. Discussions about these events could be heard everywhere in the city. Everyone was trying to guess whether the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes would be eradicated, or if their pursuers would wear them down. The country had even set up a gambling joint for this, and started putting up bets.
There were two choices of bets. The first was that a Great Tri-Alliance between the thieves, rcenaries, and rchants would form and gain the final victory. The second was that the Blood Angels, Dark Angels, and the Golden Angels would erge victorious. As the bets opened, gold began to pour into the national treasury like a river.
Groups similar to the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes had appeared before, and it had occurred more than once as well. There had also been occurrences where the three great unions had allied together and surrounded and annihilated the groups. These things had occurred at least 1000 tis. However, without a single exception, the independent group had always ended up losing. After all…how could individual groups go up against the Great Tri-Alliance?
Pretty much everyone thought that the final result would be the three Angels corps running away in defeat, and the final victory would go to the Great Tri-Alliance. The odds of the bets had already reached a shocking 100:1!
However, the next morning when people ran inside the tavern again, they were shocked to find out that the odds had beco 10:1. After so careful investigation, they found out that last night, soone had bet a hundred billion in capital that the three great Angels groups would obtain victory!
This person was none other than Suo Jia. He had extre confidence in the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenix corps. Even if they couldn’t overpower their opponents, they could also run away. Suo Jia had no intentions of compromising either. The final result would have to depend on who first beca unable to bear the losses and be forced to leave the Gold Triangle.
The reason why he hadn’t allowed the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes to leave the three major trade routes was firstly to make them train, and secondly, to tell the entire world through their actions that: ‘We are conquering the area. Even if the three great unions form an alliance, they won’t be able to do anything. We welco anyone to co at us, as long as you aren’t afraid to suffer from the losses.’
Suo Jia knew that once they erged victorious in this battle, the entire Gold Triangle would beco the three great Angels groups’. At that point…the three major cities’ comrcial transports would be handled by the Golden Angels rchant group. All the rchant groups that passed through would have to pay a protection fee to the Blood Angels rcenary group. All the thief groups that attempted to steal within the area had to hand a fixed percentage of their earnings to the Dark Angels thief group! Suo Jia’s objective remained unchanged; the first was to earn money, and the second was to train in strength.
Although the battle was arduous, and could even be described as bitter…as the battle continued on, everyone gradually began to realize that the situation wasn’t quite right. No matter how long the fights went on, these Angelic Six-Winged Angels would seemingly never tire. Their battle qi was inexhaustible, and their consciousness and spirits were always at a newly energized state, as if they had just woken up. Their physical strength was also as vigorous as always, and their bodies seed to be impervious to sword and spear. What exactly was going on?
Faced against these fierce, domineering, invulnerable Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes, everyone began to feel fear. However, the crusade had already begun; they couldn’t just start strong and finish weak. The Great Tri-Alliance couldn’t lose face. No matter how difficult it was, they had to continue charging forwards. They had to drive away these three great Angels corps out of the Gold Triangle!
