Chapter 127 3 parties
Some time ago, just before Zelin was arrested, a big shot came to Fituos's residence.
Such a person would not have come here for no reason. As soon as he arrived, he assigned Fitus a task: to capture the immortals in the city.
Although he didn't know why this was necessary, Fitus had no choice but to comply due to the power of the Eagle Guards.
So, what exactly qualifies someone as an immortal?
First of all, those with extraordinary abilities are definitely excluded, as their lifespan is already much longer than that of ordinary people.
Is 70 considered a long life? Is 80 considered a long life? What about 90 or 100?
Without a doubt, these are considered long-lived in folk tradition.
But the clever Fitus knew that if he only looked for these things, the Eagle Guards would surely kill him.
But what exactly constitutes longevity?
Even if Zelin lived a long life, living for more than 140 years, which is beyond the understanding of ordinary people, Fituos believed that this was a long life.
In fact, Fitus did not want to arrest Zelin, because he knew that the old man had a higher reputation in the city than he did.
However, with the mission imminent, Fituos had no choice but to take action. He originally planned to capture Zelin first, and then capture a few older people to make up the numbers.
After all, there really aren't any people in the city who live that long!
But things didn't go as planned. As those damned rebels exposed his deeds, the people in the city were outraged and began to suspect him, saying that he had killed Zelin.
He didn't actually kill him, he just tied him up.
Don't ask if I tied him up or not, just tell me if I killed him or not.
In addition, a series of subsequent events put Fituos under pressure from public opinion, preventing him from taking any action. In the end, he only managed to kidnap a few older homeless people.
"one......."
The esteemed Eagle Guard kept twirling the dagger in his hand, his gaze towards Fitus gradually turning cold.
"Your work efficiency is too low, Fitus?"
"My lord, please forgive me, my lord, please forgive me!"
Hearing the Eagle Guard's unfriendly words, Fituos knelt down with a thud, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
To his relief, the eagle guard didn't punish him in the end. He just looked at him, chuckled, and left.
Hey~
Finally, we've sent this living father away!
................
Fitus's guess was indeed correct; the Freedom Society and the slaves they had freed were indeed still in the city.
What did you say to them?
The rabbit looked at the middle-aged man who was walking over, her eyes full of doubt. In her sight, the middle-aged man said a few words to the group of slaves they had freed, and then the slaves nodded in agreement.
"It's nothing important."
"Just asking them for a favor."
The middle-aged man, who was the team leader, ignored the rabbit's questioning gaze and simply strolled to the center of the group.
"Next, we will launch a surprise attack on the city lord's mansion. Given the heavy guard there, I have decided to first instigate an internal uprising within the city to divert some of the city lord's guards away."
"Yu, come here."
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the middle-aged man pulled out a palm-sized skull and whispered something to Yu.
"You are already injured and are not fit for the battle later, so this task will be assigned to you."
“I have had the slaves pretend to be civilians, waiting for the right moment to clash with the guards and cause a riot.”
"This skull is called Chaos. It is a special artifact created by a high-level necromancer, a sorcerer, and a diviner."
"Like his name, he can cause chaos among people, but the downside is that he's useless against slightly higher-level superhumans."
“I need you to take this and follow those slaves to spread the chaos as much as possible. This way, Fitus will definitely have to spare some of his strength to maintain order and suppress the rebellion. As long as he does this, our chances of success in the killing operation will be much higher.”
The woman named Yu nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. The battle just now had indeed consumed a lot of its strength, and it had also suffered several injuries, so it was indeed not suitable for the battle to come.
"Chameleon, wait a minute..."
After whispering the words, the middle-aged man began assigning other tasks.
They talked for over an hour to complete their plan, and they were bound to unleash unimaginable chaos in the city.

"That's all?"
That's all...
In the wealthy district of Huangtucheng, Bo Gang's wealth, as the richest person in the entire city, truly amazed Lin Tian.
He owned a huge estate with countless slaves and servants, and every decoration was luxurious, even the toilets were decorated in a way that ordinary people couldn't afford.
But all this wealth is just the surface; Bo Gang also has a small secret room to satisfy his collecting obsession.
Such vulgar things as sand shells don't deserve to be placed here. This place is filled with precious items, either of which have commemorative significance or are special and rare materials that are rarely seen in ordinary times.
Of course, what's piled up most here are those psionic crystals that are bright enough to blind people.
This was the first time Lin Tian had ever seen so many spirit energy crystals. He was stunned for several seconds when he first came in.
"This... really is all I've collected..."
Bo Gang, who had been beaten black and blue, was forced forward by the white-robed scholar. There was something strange about his voice, giving Lin Tian the feeling that his vocal cords had fallen out of control.
Strictly speaking, no one was allowed to enter this place before, but... the past is the past, and the present is the present.
After being thoroughly beaten, Bo Gang obediently led Lin Tian and the others here.
"That's great, Bo Gang."
Lin Tian, having arrived here, naturally didn't stand on ceremony. He raised his hand and began absorbing the spiritual energy crystals in front of him.
Because there were so many of them, and they were all scattered and piled up, he used the new skill that the system had given him.
hum!
A golden vortex suddenly emerged from his hand, and when it expanded to 80 centimeters, it suddenly unleashed a powerful suction force, instantly absorbing the psionic crystals.
Storm inhalation!
The spiritual energy value increased rapidly, reaching over 100,000 in a short time.
Cool!
Lin Tian looked delighted, and even after the substance was completely absorbed, he was still unable to recover from his joy.
To his slight regret, even as the richest man in the city, his collection didn't include [Ears of Anger].
Hey~
Lin Tian sighed regretfully, which was quickly noticed by Bo Gang, who was standing nearby.
"Does the master still feel unsatisfied?"
"Not really, it's just that I couldn't find what I was looking for."
"I know a place that is just as wealthy as I am, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it's the second richest place in the city. It also has a lot of collections. You might be able to find what you're looking for there, sir!"
"where?"
Hearing what Bo Gang said, Lin Tian became slightly interested and turned to ask the pig-headed man a question.
"The City Lord's Mansion!"
Bo Gang replied without hesitation.
