Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 1013 - 622, City Lord’s Mansion is hiring......
Chapter 1013: Chapter 622, City Lord’s Mansion is hiring……
Hearing the discussion of the few individuals, the Snake Woman also became tense.
She hurriedly said, “It was my fault for breaking the rules just now, I accept the punishment.”
She did not believe that the other party’s words were merely to scare her.
After all, this place was densely packed with Skeletons.
It clearly had some special connection with the Undead.
Lest they indeed turn her into such a Skeleton.
...
Fang Hao, gazing through the gaps in his shield, looked at the body that was straightened by the spears and said, “Now I have a reason to kill you, give me a reason not to kill you.”
This, … .
“I swear by the Sea God that I will not strike you again,” said the Snake Woman, her bewitching eyes glancing at him.
Fang Hao slowly raised his arm, about to order her execution.
Swearing by the Sea God?
You, a pirate leader, swear by the Sea God?
It is dubious whether the Sea God acknowledges you as a follower or not.
Seeing Fang Hao raise his hand, the Snake Woman became even more nervous.
She continued, “I am a hero of the Sea Tribe, I can swear loyalty to you. My role on the seas and rivers is irreplaceable by other heroes. I can capture many ships and a lot of money for you, just give me some men, and I can bring you treasures and women, women of every race.”
Still felt very much like a pirate.
Taking money and kidnapping women, it was essentially the same, whether as bandits or pirates.
Actually, Fang Hao did not want to kill her, but her previous actions had indeed angered him.
Directly using Skills on him was an extremely dangerous move.
He continued, “According to your pirate rules, how should an attempt to assassinate the leader be handled?”
“It wasn’t an assassination, just testing your strength,” she replied.
Fang Hao slightly waved his hand, the Skeleton holding the spear stepped forward half a step.
The lower half of the Snake Woman’s body, covered in fine scales, indeed had some toughness.
As the long spear depressed, her upper body, which was more like human skin, suffered wounds that bled under the force of the spear.
The Snake Woman clenched her teeth, daring not to move her body.
She said, “Death for failed assassination of the leader, but if it’s just a challenge, a hundred lashes, hanging from a cliff for three days to be pecked at by seabirds.”
This pirate method sure is simple and violent.
A hundred lashes might take away half of one’s life, and hanging there, exposed for three days could only be survived by heroes.
Fang Hao continued, “Which category do you think you fall under?”
“The second kind.”
“Fine, then let’s go by the second option. Take her to the Blood Prison, hand her over to Black Thorn, give a hundred lashes, then hang her on the gallows to sun for three days,” Fang Hao declared outright.
“Yes, my Lord,” Demitrija replied, ordering people to immediately escort the Snake Woman away.
This time, the Snake Woman did not resist.
Perhaps with the current situation, she had no opportunity to resist.
Seeing her being taken away, Fang Hao still felt somewhat uneasy. He continued, “Arrange for two ‘Nisbits’ to go to the Blood Prison, if she tries to escape, kill her.”
“Yes,” Demitrija nodded again.
Next, the Skeleton soldiers departed, and Fang Hao, walking back with Anjia.
Summoning a pirate was beyond Fang Hao’s expectations.
Such a personality was indeed troublesome.
But fortunately, this Snake Woman was not as mad as the pirates depicted in films; she knew enough to fear death.
She could be kept for further observation.
If it doesn’t work out, turn her into a Skeleton after all.
…
On the way back, he took a careful look at Anjia.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
[Fighting Tooth – Anjia (Purple Tier 1 Hero)]
Indeed, she had successfully advanced, although it was just a normal promotion to Tier 1, she had also entered the category of purple.
In this world’s context, purple was also a high-level hero.
And after advancing to purple, Anjia seemed taller and her body more athletic.
Hero advancement was indeed quite beneficial.
Then, he opened the Book of Lords to check Anjia’s attributes.
Skills had improved but hadn’t changed much.
That was good too, stronger was better; she wasn’t a Mage, why need so many Skills?
“I’ve advanced, don’t forget what you promised me,” Anjia reminded him, not feeling reassured.
“There’s nothing to forget, I, a wealthy lord, would not deceive you,” Fang Hao said outright.
“Then take me and Lorrey to play in the Trade Alliance tonight!” Anjia said.
Fang Hao looked at the time, “It’s too late today, let’s do it in a couple of days.”
Anjia felt that made sense, “Then give me the Aerial Ship now, I’ll go find Lorrey.”
“The Aerial Ship is still on the way back.”
“What about my golden cloak?”
“Wait, let the tailor make it for you.”
“You motherf****r…” Anjia burst forth and lunged towards Fang Hao.
Fang Hao opened his arms and embraced her, saying, “Let Eira make you something delicious today, we’ll take care of the rest later.”
Anjia pulled his hair hard twice, but there was nothing else she could do.
In the evening.
Eira prepared a lavish dinner.
She also invited Lorrey over, holding a small celebration for Anjia.
Indeed satisfied Anjia’s slight conceit.
And she experienced the joy of family.
After dinner, she immediately went with Lorrey to find the tailor, transforming what was one golden cloak into two, one large and one small.
Make one for Lorrey as well.
This side.
Guided by Demitrija, Fang Hao walked through the forest and past the gallows.
The gallows were located on the edge of the city.
Actually, in the main city this side, no one was really hanged.
Even murderers were simply chopped with a single stroke and thrown into the transformation yard.
The most punishment the maids received was a spanking from Eira; they never used the gallows.
Passing through rows of buildings.
They then arrived at the area with the gallows.
From afar, they could see the Snake Woman hanging, and the two Nisbits standing by her side.
The gallows had been heightened, and the Snake Woman’s four arms were tied up, hanging high in mid-air.
Her snake tail dangled, resembling a hanging python.
“My lord!” the two Nisbits saluted.
Fang Hao nodded, “Yes, thank you for your efforts. Watch over her these few days.”
“Yes, my lord.”
101 Nisbits had formed the current team of trusted aides.
Using heroes as trusted aides was probably a practice only Fang Hao himself employed.
After speaking with the Nisbits, his gaze fell on the Snake Woman.
Full of scars, the bizarre Snake Woman looked exceptionally miserable and weak.
Crimson viscous blood had dyed her body red, which made her colorful scales appear even more bizarre.
Only the slight heaving of her chest proved she was still alive.
Fang Hao checked her loyalty.
[Embrace of the Deep Sea – Priestess Himiko, current loyalty 67 points.]
It was 72 points before, now it had dropped to 67.
If it kept dropping like this, she was the one in danger.
“How is it going?” Fang Hao asked.
The Snake Woman weakly lifted her head slightly, opened her eyes a crack to look at him, then closed them again.
Fang Hao thought for a moment and continued, “This world is cruel, everyone must be responsible for their own actions, you should be clear about that. As a lord, I will not mistreat anyone under my command, it’s my responsibility. Likewise, you also need to take responsibility.”
“So, what are you trying to tell me?” the Snake Woman asked weakly.
“I am telling you that you are no longer a pirate. Comply with the rules here, do what you must, and it will make your life more comfortable,” Fang Hao said calmly.
The Snake Woman seemed to want to say more, but eventually, she closed her mouth and merely uttered three words, “Got it.”
Fang Hao did not say anything more, and left the place with Demitrija.
The Snake Woman accounted for nothing.
Was not Rolana even more insane at the beginning?
Eventually, she still integrated into this environment.
But the Snake Woman was different from Rolana; Rolana had the capital to be crazy, and back then, no one could do anything with her.
The Snake Woman’s craziness, however, would only lead to her quicker demise.
Fang Hao was just reminding her to comply with the rules here; otherwise, a next time would not be as simple as a whipping.
After hanging for three days, if she was willing to accept this place, Fang Hao naturally would not trouble her over past matters.
But if she still did not recognize the kindness, she could only be sent to Nelson.
Upon returning to the Book of Lords residency and soaking in the hot spring,
he then went back to his room to rest.
…
Meanwhile.
In Lyss City.
Inside a tavern,
The painter ‘Browning’descending the stairs with a rather voluptuous woman, laughing and fooling around.
Just as they reached the bottom of the stairs, his steps halted.
There were hardly any people drinking at the tables, instead, they were all gathered at the counter.
It was rather messy.
“What’s going on?” Browning pinched the woman’s buttocks and asked softly.
The woman blushed and coquettishly replied, “Don’t you know? The City Lord’s residence is hiring.”
Browning was startled; they had just hired workers not so long ago.
Why are they hiring again?
Not right… if it’s hiring, it wouldn’t gather this many people.
“Hiring for what?” Browning continued to ask.
The woman flirtatiously smiled, “That, I don’t know; my job is to serve you well, what they’re hiring for has nothing to do with me.”
Browning affectionately pinched her cheek.
With his arm around her, he then walked towards the counter.
Just as they approached, they heard someone loudly saying, “The school is hiring teachers, anyone with a skill can go to the City Lord’s residence to register, such as reading, writing, accounting, arithmetic. If you know any magic, alchemy, even better.”
The majority of ordinary people couldn’t read.
Thus, whether it was the new rules of the City Lord’s residence or some hiring information, it had to be read or explained to everyone.
“What is a school?” someone asked loudly.
Browning behind them also listened attentively.
The person above, loudly explained, “A school is a place where children can take classes. The City Lord and Mrs. Rebecca decided to establish schools so every household’s children can go and learn to read.”
“What’s the use of that?”
“This means your children will not end up like you, only knowing how to farm and exerting physical labor; they can do many more jobs.” The person paused in their tone then immediately spoke, “No, why am I telling you all this.”
He picked up two hiring notices again and shouted loudly, “Be clear about it, those who are strong can go to the western city construction site, go build houses… those planning to apply as a teacher, go register at the City Lord’s residence.”
