Chapter 831 Another Saviour? Where is my reward?' 'That depends, host. Define completion.' '_' 'System, are you joking with me?' 'Not at all, host. The system has always been a serious one and never jokes. The system only reminds the host to look up the word [completion] before asking for any rewards.' Forget it. Landon smiled wryly when he thought about his reward. As expected, he would only get rewarded the moment Marlo stepped his foot into the prison. So he had no choice but to wait. Just like that, they left Magoon island after spending five days there. And in another 3~4 days, they should reach Baymard's shores. Landon was pretty pleased with the amount of sheer wealth that they had accumulated. He smiled and calmly walked towards a conference room to have a meeting with Mitchen, Lucius, Winnie and some prison officials that came on this trip too. It was time to decide where each prisoner would go. . Previously, they had only debated on the fates of Marlo and his men. But the other pirates were different because unlike Marlo, they weren't cannibals. Again some of them were rookie pirates that haven't stayed long in the crew. They had low fighting abilities and weren't that much of a threat. So they'll be placed in any sector below Sector A, depending on their capabilities. They wouldn't place them in a place where everyone was stronger than them. Everyone would go where they were supposed to. Of course, all 3 Pirate Captains will stay in Sector A alongside some of their fiercest crew members. All this had to be finalized before they arrived at Baymard. That way, they could settle them down faster, and he could get his reward. With that, he hastily left his room and headed for the meeting. He felt like if he didn't do it now, the system would find other ways to play with him. Of course, the system wasn't the only one that enjoyed playing around. Far away, another person was currently enjoying his little game. . --Capital City Outskirts, Arcadina-- . Whoo-Whoo. Awoooooo!!! Creek Creek. The dark forest played its nightly tune as the owls spoke, the wolves howled, and the crickets creaked. Danger lurked everywhere within the dark cold woods, as the night creatures showcased their strength within the darkness. Everything was as it should be; peaceful yet dangerous and mysterious. And hidden away deep within the forest was a massive base that was entirely out of sight for those who didn't know of its existence. Only by entering a cave and travelling for 1 hour on foot could one get there. The forest region was rumoured to be cursed, and several blood-dependent plants existed within the land. And many-a-times, people have reported that they spotted ghosts wandering around the forest in the dead of night. So apart from being afraid of getting eaten by frightening beasts, no one dared to go further into the forest. And within the hidden estate, several men were currently shitting themselves fearfully. Dammit! Who the hell had they offended for them to be treated like this? . Squeak Squeak. Chi-Chi-Chi-Chi-Chi. Within a mouldy-smelling dungeon, several rats ran amok haphazardly. Tonight was their hunting night. "Dammit! They bit me again!" One of the prisoners within the dungeon hastily grabbed the fat rat and accidentally flung it in the bucket of poop on the other side of the cell. Pang The rat struggled to come out but found itself seemingly drowning within the bucket of waste. The sight was both disgusting and regretful. "You fool! What if they forget to give us food tonight? Look at what you've done. You've just watched our supper!" "Yeah! What are we going to... Eh? Sh! Sh! Someone's coming!" Everyone acted naturally, with some pretending to fall asleep while leaning on the walls. Din Din Din Din Din Several guards walked in with buckets of food in their hands. "Heh! Count yourselves lucky. Tonight, you'll get the rare privilege of feasting on our leftovers. And I hear that there's even some pieces of fish mixed in it too. Isn't that great? Well, you know what to do. If you want to eat, stand back!" With that, the prisoners stood far away from the cell doors. . Even if they wanted to escape, they wouldn't be so foolish as to fight their way out now. There were over two hundred guards that came down to supervise and deliver their meals. They were very much outnumbered, and they were sure that more guards would also be standing along the corridors too. So mealtime wasn't the best time to escape since everyone's eyes will be on them. Thinking like that, they did as they were told and took several steps back. The guards entered each cell and dumped all the contents of the food onto the ground, and also kept a bucket of water too. The food looked like it came straight out of a dumpster, but they didn't care. The moment the guards stepped out of the cells, everyone rushed towards the food like crazy. And of course, the rats also joined them as well. For a moment, they began fighting with the rats, as well as amongst themselves. They cleaned the entire floor, leaving no crumbs of good behind. Not even a single grain of rice could be seen on the dirty rat-infested floors. They licked their hands and tried to savour the taste as much as possible. Who would've known that they who were the highest of nobles would end up like this? . "What do we do? If we keep staying here, they'll definitely kill us all!" "He's right! The guard said that they were only waiting for their leader to come before taking care of us permanently. So what do we do?" "No! I don't want to die now! How can I leave everything that I have to those bastard children of mine? My heir is currently on an assignment far away. If I die now, those ingrates would probably squeeze him out of his inheritance before his return. How can my legacy be inherited by some concubine or lower-rated wife? That will be the greatest sin in my life!" going to kill us!" Everyone spoke nervously while trying to come up with different example plans. Suddenly, the figure dressed in black appeared before them. An assassin? Everyone instantly became alert. Their hearts raced with several thoughts of death and unwillingness. "Who are you?" The man in black just looked at them calmly and smiled underneath his mask. "Who am I? Well, I'm your saviour."
