"Ah, ah, don't kill me... spare my life, I'll never dare offend you again, spare me!" Seeing all his subordinates slaughtered by the devil before him, the bandit leader's mental defenses finally collapsed. He knelt on the ground, repeatedly kowtowing.
Mu Yang looked at him coldly and asked plainly, "If I don't kill you, should I let you continue doing evil? People like you deserve to go to hell, even in the afterlife."
"No... I'll give you all the treasure, all of it, please spare me!" The bandit leader was terrified and stumbled backward, but how could Mu Yang let him go so easily? A blur of afterimages flashed past, and the bandit leader let out a scream, ending his life.
Looking at the bodies of the bandits, Mu Yang's expression was stern. "Killing you is ridding the people of harm. As for the treasure, this place isn't that big, can't I find it myself?"
He casually scanned the corpses, then shifted his gaze and began searching the cave. Finally, in a corner at the furthest end of the cave, he found a large treasure chest. He pried open the chest's lock, and inside, gleaming gold filled with various gold, gems, and jewelry. The wealth these bandits had accumulated through years of robbery and disregard for human life filled an entire treasure chest.
Just looking at the treasure, he knew they had killed many people in their daily lives. He sighed inwardly, and Mu Yang loaded the treasure, along with the entire chest, into his Acceleration Space.
Ever since Mu Yang broke through the first layer of restrictions, this Acceleration Space could be used for storage. However, it required a period of preparation each time it was activated. Therefore, overall, the Acceleration Space could only be an auxiliary tool and could not provide Mu Yang with any convenience during combat.
Glancing at the empty treasure vault, Mu Yang nodded. These bandits had worked for years, even risking their lives, and in the end, it all became his gain. Exiting the cave, Mu Yang raised his hand and threw a Ki Blast at the cave entrance. With a booming roar, the cave collapsed.
Having done all this, he didn't look back and flew towards a nearby city. Before purchasing seafood, he first needed to convert some of the gold into currency.
Meanwhile, in a mountain range in the eastern part of Earth.
This was the headquarters of the Ophiuchus Legion.
Majestic buildings resembled castles, with grand independent towers and dazzling blue tiles that shone brilliantly in the sunlight.
Security was tight, with patrols every few steps. Every soldier wore a uniform, patrolling back and forth at the corners of the towers.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
A helicopter circled and slowly landed on the helipad. Officer Lusha and his entourage jumped off the aircraft and entered the castle with the guide.
In a luxuriously decorated grand hall, Officer Lusha met their commander.
It was a burly beastman with blue fur, a pointed snout, and fangs, looking exceptionally ferocious. This was the supreme commander of the Ophiuchus Legion—Commander Huai En. Commander Huai En was currently gnawing on a piece of meat, taking a bite and swallowing, then chugging down a bottle of liquor.
"Commander Huai En!" Officer Lusha stood respectfully and saluted.
Commander Huai En glanced at Officer Lusha dismissively. "How did the matter I assigned you go? Where are those design blueprints?"
Officer Lusha sweated profusely. "Commander, the blueprints were not found."
"Not found? Then why did you come back? Hurry up and go find them!" Commander Huai En looked at Lusha coldly, his chilling gaze like the eyes of a devil, making Lusha feel as if he were facing death. Commander Huai En asked with a dark expression, "Where is that Claren now?"
"He's dead!" Lusha replied bitterly.
Crash! Commander Huai En violently smashed the wine bottle in his hand, spilling blood-red wine all over the floor.
"How did you handle things? I told you to spare no expense, and this is the result you give me? Do you know how important the blueprints in his possession are? Those are robot design blueprints. As soon as we obtain those blueprints, our Ophiuchus Legion can mass-produce robots and form a powerful combat legion. At that time, let alone the United Kingdom, the entire world will have to bow to us!"
"That Claren was very cunning. When my subordinates were pursuing him, he was accidentally shot and killed by a soldier."
Lusha said cautiously.
"Get rid of that soldier, the scoundrel." A sinister glint flashed in Commander Huai En's beastly eyes. Officer Lusha's expression darkened, and cold sweat broke out on his back. He said urgently, "When Claren was fleeing, he had a girl with him. Perhaps the blueprints are with that girl."
"Then what are you waiting for? Go quickly! Lusha, I'll give you one more chance. Go and find those blueprints. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
"Yes!" Officer Lusha shivered and responded repeatedly, then respectfully withdrew from the hall.
After leaving the hall, Lusha felt a chill down his spine, his clothes soaked with sweat.
"Boss, what do we do now?"
The accompanying subordinate's face was pale. Every time he met Commander Huai En, he felt like he was saying goodbye forever.
"What else can we do? Hurry up and look, mobilize all our forces, we must find those blueprints." Lusha spat on the ground and said sinisterly, "And that incompetent soldier, who let him shoot."
"Do we really have to kill him?" The subordinate swallowed.
"If we don't kill him, you and I will be shot!" Officer Lusha said fiercely.
This was his last chance. There was no room for sentimentality within the Ophiuchus Legion. If he couldn't retrieve the blueprints, he believed the commander would absolutely not let him off.
