Chapter 107 Return

  "This time, the top 4,000 in the assessment will receive a high-ranking magical beast as a summoning pet from Duke Xie. Among you, 4,000 people will become summoners, high-ranking summoners! Who will get the summoning pet, I believe you all have an idea in your minds. Tell me, those who didn't get a summoning pet, aren't you envious?"

  "Envy!"

  Jack nodded, and his voice turned cold: "Admiration is fine, but don't let me know that any of you are harboring jealousy! You're all evil troops, and you're also brothers! Among brothers, it's okay to admire and compete, but I don't like it when someone in the evil troops becomes arrogant and self-satisfied, or resentful and hateful! Tell me, what should be done with those who are arrogant and self-satisfied, jealous and resentful, look down on their fellow brothers, and stab them in the back?"

  "Kill!"

  For the unified answer of the evil army, Jack was very satisfied: "Now, the top 4,000 people in front, according to their ranking, those with strong strength will be given priority to choose a magic pet."

  The first four thousand soldiers mentioned by Jack all came out, but they were not all from the strongest Evil One Army. Instead, there were people from each army who came out. However, those who came out were all originally elite soldiers of the Forbidden Army.

  Four thousand people lined up voluntarily according to their assessment scores over the past ten days, with the strongest ones getting priority in choosing their favorite magical pets.

  The four thousand demon pets that Sandor Kocsis gave to Li Xie were not all of the same species, but rather a mix of various demons of the same rank. Their strength differed not only in terms of their rank, but also in terms of their species. As for which demon pet qualified soldiers wanted to choose, it was up to them.

  Four thousand people quickly chose their own demon pets and signed the master-slave contract, putting the demon pets into the pet space, and they all joined the ranks.

  Jack's team stood at attention, and he continued: "Warriors who have not yet obtained a magical familiar, do not be discouraged. As long as you improve your strength, you still have the opportunity to obtain a magical familiar! And for those of you who have already obtained a magical familiar, you must work even harder, because in the future, you can still acquire higher-level magical familiars! Now, tell me, who granted you all this?"

  "Evil Duke Li!"

  "Which deity do you believe in?"

  "Sleep Master!"

  "Whose orders do you follow?"

  "General Jacques Rothschild commands!"

  "What army are you?"

  "Enemy army!"

  "Very well!" Jack dismounted his warhorse and faced the bronze statue of Li Xie: "Master Meng is above! May divine light bless Duke Xie!"

  All the soldiers followed him in turning to face Li Xie's bronze statue, their hands clenched into fists and placed on their chests: "Great Master Meng is above! May divine light bless Duke Ye!"

  Jack kept repeating the slogan, seemingly tedious, but it was his way of governing the army. The thoughts of the troops didn't need to be complicated, just give them the simplest and most direct ideas! Let them execute every military order without hesitation! Repeating the slogan in this way can subtly unify the evil army's cohesion, and even form a fanatical army with Mu Ye as the highest faith and Li Xie as the central soul.

  There is nothing more unshakeable than an army with a fanatical faith.

  These things take time.

  "That's all for today, everyone go to the logistics department to receive 10 gold coins, the soldier on duty will be on duty as usual, and the rest will have a day off. Report back at noon tomorrow, remember not to disturb the people! How to deal with those who disturb the people?"

  "Kill!"

  "Alright! Dismissed!"

  "Bang...... Bang...... Bang......"

  Wan Di couldn't help but applaud, praising: "The Evil Army under your rule has become as disciplined as the Imperial Guard in just a few short months! If given more time, this army will likely become the strongest in the Empire! Your Majesty is truly a talent!"

  Jack walked over, his face stern. "Vandy, watch your words! The Evil Army is the army of the Evil Duke! I am a general of the Evil Duke!"

  "Anyway, don't forget that I'm also loyal to the Duke of Evil! You're just too serious sometimes, even more so than me." Vandy Sel said with a shake of his head.

  Kano nodded beside him: "Uh-huh, stubborn Commander."

  Jack's face had turned cold: "It's not that I'm being rigid, but this is a military camp! I don't want to hear any words that don't conform to the army's ideology! You two are my friends in private, but in the military camp, watch your words! The words you two just spoke, I hope it's the last time I hear them in the military camp. Otherwise, I won't give you the face of being friends!"

  Vandy and Kano exchanged a look, they knew Jack was serious and almost ruthless when it came to military matters, so they quickly clenched their fists and saluted: "Yes, Commander Jack Rothschild!"

  "Haha, look at you guys, didn't you say today was a holiday?"

  Looking at Jack's smug face, both of them were stunned, realizing they had been fooled. Vandy Sell feigned anger and circled his arm around Jack's neck: "You little brat! You've duped your old brother!"

  "Come on, let's go get some drinks." Jack said with a smile.

  "Go! It's on you!" Vandy Sell took two steps and said, "The adults have been with Enze for almost a month, I don't know if there will be any problems."

  Kano patted Vandy's shoulder: "Don't worry, the old man is a wonderful person, I've been following him all along, seeing a lot, you think he'll die, he won't die yet."

  "Whoa!" Vandy Sell was shocked: "Kano, don't misinterpret my words, I didn't mean for the adult to die!"

  "Doesn't matter? It's fine anyway, as long as you want him dead, he can't die then."

  "My god! What a scandal! Jack, your newly appointed leader, are you sure you want him to be the leader?"

  "Ah... " Jack's mouth twitched slightly: "The matter on Reddy Gagana's side, I've decided to let Kano take charge of it."

  "No way, no way." Kano shook his head: "I'm going with the adults."

  "Those one thousand soldiers with sixth-order magical beasts are yours." Jack threw out the temptation.

  "This...” Kano rubbed his head, his eyes gleaming with a hint of hope. Those one thousand soldiers were undoubtedly the strongest squad in the Evil Army. To have them under his command would be the most pride-worthy thing as a general. However...Kano still shook his head: "No, following the adults is where the benefits lie."

  "Haha, you little kid, you have insight!"

  "Older brother!"

  Three people looked up at the sky, Li Xie and Ze Ennarde were flying down in front of them.

  Li Xie returned to Chrysanthemum City and went straight to the military camp without entering the city lord's mansion, showing that what Li Xie cared about most was still the most important force in his hands.

  "Three of you are traveling together, where are you headed?" Li Xie descended to the ground, took out his clothes and asked with a smile while putting them on.

  "Let's go have a drink. Sir, you must be tired from the journey, why don't we go together? It just so happens that we also have something to report."

  "Let's go back to the castle and have a drink."

  The five returned to the city master's mansion and sat in the hall. Lily ordered the kitchen to serve wine and dishes.

  "Come! Let's have a drink first." Li Xie raised his cup and took a sip with several people, then asked: "Has there been any big news this month?"

  "Everything is calm on the Sunflower Movement side and there's nothing big happening here. Everything is going smoothly." - Jack

  "What about Ledi?"

  Jack said, "I've arranged for Reddy and his Dragon Tiger Gang to blend in with the army and get familiar with the officers I've assigned. They haven't been dispatched yet, but the magical beasts purchased by Your Excellency have arrived and been distributed to the officers. I plan to have those one thousand sixth-rank summoners follow Reddy, after all, Sunflower City isn't like Chrysanthemum City, it doesn't have any real strength and will just be quickly devoured. I also plan to send Cano to take care of the matters entrusted by Your Excellency. As for Reddy, I still don't trust him!"

  "Uh-huh, everything is going according to your plan. As for Kano..." Li Xie smiled and looked at Kano: "I heard you're not too willing to go?"

  "Adult...Kano..." Kano was reluctant in his heart, but if Li Xie ordered him to do so, he would definitely go all out.

  Li Xie smiled: "Go, you were once a commander, but you've always lacked the talent for it. Go and temper yourself. The position of deputy commander-in-chief of the Xie army is not one that a mere obedient commander can hold."

  Kano's body shook: "What do you mean by 'adult'?"

  Kano's heart was racing with excitement, but he couldn't quite believe it!

  The gap between the commander-in-chief and the deputy commander is really too big!

  The commander-in-chief may lead the troops, but in fact, it is just a role that listens to orders and fights, and cannot even have command power. Because the commander-in-chief must listen to the commander's orders, firmly execute them, and absolutely cannot have the situation of "the general is outside, and the military order is not accepted". But the deputy commander-in-chief is completely different, this is the second most powerful position in the evil army. Status, glory, power are not comparable to the commander-in-chief, using a heaven and an earth to describe it is not excessive.

  "What? Do you want me to spell it out for you? Alright, I hereby appoint you as the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Evil Army. When the 'acting' is dropped, that's up to you."

  Kano hastened to get down from his chair and knelt on one knee: "Kano at your command!"

  "Get up." Li Xie smiled and said, "Besides, you are also a Seventh-Order Sword Saint. Let me give you priority to choose a Thunderbolt War Horse to enhance your strength. A Seventh-Order Sword Saint is not worthy of the title of Deputy Commander-in-Chief."

  "Yes! Sir!" Kano hastily replied, then paused in surprise: "Thunderbolt Warhorse? Are you referring to the Seventh Tier Magical Beast Thunderbolt Warhorse?"

  "What? That's one of the commander's most coveted magical pets! Sir! Are you really going to give away Cano?" Cano got excited again.

  "Nonsense!" Li Xie took out the 103 fist-sized beast traps from his spatial ring, piled them up into a small mountain, and pointed at the traps: "This time, aside from not gaining anything else, we caught over a hundred Thunder War Horses. The king of the horses belongs to me, Kano can choose one, and the rest, Jack, you're in charge of distributing them."

  Huh!

  Kano and Jack both have shining eyes!

  "Sir, may I have one too?" Jack asked hastily.

  "You distribute." Li Xie said generously.

  "Thanks! Sir!" Jack's serious face also had a hint of embarrassment.

  Lightning War Horse is not only a high-level demon beast but also has strong combat power. Most importantly, it's majestic!

  Riding a Thunderbolt Warhorse, speaking between them makes the warhorse constantly discharge electricity. That scene is simply every military commander's dream.

  Kano patted Jack heavily and laughed: "See, I said it's good to follow the adults. Grandma, a seventh-order Thunder War Horse! No way, I want to choose a white one, then ride on the main street, heh heh, it'll be busy tonight."

  "Wrong, it's not seven levels, it's eight!" The corner of Li Xie's mouth on the right twitched.

  Jack knew what Li Xie meant, his eyes gleaming with spirit.
