I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 340: Convoy of Tribute

The leader of the city-state of Alacada, Uzbekistan intends to have a total of four leaders, in charge of the four colors of the country.

They are the black leaders wearing the face of pain.

A white leader wearing a diligent face.

The yellow leader wearing an abominable face.

And the red leader wearing the happy face.

Among them, the black leader is the most powerful and has the longest following the king.

Unlike the other four leaders, he has always been simple and simple, and almost no one has seen him make a move—everyone who has seen it has died.

His Majesty trusted him and gave him great power.

But I don't know when, a rumor spread in the palace.

The black leader wants to rebel.

Said he was going to overthrow the king's rule.

Establish your own government.

The black leader didn't argue for himself, and he didn't even send anyone to find out who spread the rumors.

At first, everyone didn't believe it, but when it spread, the taste changed.

Sometimes, it's just like that.

If you don't say anything, you can forget it. Once someone mentions it, it will become a seed, planted in people's hearts, waiting for the right opportunity to germinate.

Every move of the black leader will be studied with a magnifying glass.

Why does he stay simple and concentrate on practicing? Of course it was for rebellion.

Why did he train his guard to be strong and fearless? Of course it is to usurp the throne.

What that sentence says, people never care what the truth is, they only believe what they want to believe.

This time, the black leader released the two criminals who had broken into the palace without the permission of His Majesty the King, and finally aroused the dissatisfaction of the other two leaders.

It was also the first time that he wanted to seek power to usurp the throne.

However, facing Huang's question, the black leader didn't say anything.

Turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Chief Huang looked at the direction he disappeared and snorted.

The white leader sighed.

...

Zhang Jue and Pritt escaped from the black hole created by the black leader, and it only took a few minutes to get outside the wall of the palace.

Before the guards could react, the two ran away.

They didn't know how long they ran, and confirmed that no one was chasing them, so they stopped and sat on a step to rest.

"Brother Feng Qingyang, I didn't see it. You really had two things. After dealing with the white leader for so long, you were unscathed."

Pritt patted Zhang Jue on the shoulder, looking up and down.

When he first met on the underground trading floor, he thought Zhang Jue was a speculator like him.

But I didn't expect to be a master.

In the underground trading floor, fish and dragons are mixed, and there will always be creatures with short eyes to challenge the authority of the four leaders.

But without exception, it is not a spike.

Zhang Jue and the white leader were hard-faced, their faces were not red and their hearts were beaten, and they took time to direct him to open the door.

It just made Pritt admire.

"It's pure luck, good luck."

Zhang Jue didn't dare to tell him that he had only used 30% of his strength, otherwise the rat man would have to pee on his head in fright.

The four chiefs here, Zhang Jue, had already met three of them, and had a rough idea of ​​their strength.

Probably better than the Four Sark Saints, and almost the same as Ion who hadn't ascended to God.

Especially the black leader, he should be good at manipulating time and space skills, which is not easy to deal with.

But he actually helped himself, which surprised Zhang Jue.

In his impression, the two did not have any intersection.

But now is not the time to think about this, his first task is to find a way to meet the Hanged King, and then ask for help from the other party and leave here.

But what makes Zhang Jue depressed is that because their invasion just now was discovered, there are now many more guards patrolling the outside of the palace.

The defense of the entire palace has risen by one level, and it is impossible to get in again.

Have to think of other ways.

Anyway, they couldn't get in for a while, so Zhang Jue and Pritt retreated some distance to avoid being recognized by the soldiers on patrol.

The two returned to Zhang Jue's residence, rested for a while, and ate something.

Zhang Jue asked, "Pritt, besides the secret road, is there any other way to sneak into the palace."

Pritt shook his head: "Man, I know you are very powerful, but that is your majesty's palace, did you know that your majesty, that is a complete tyrant. It is said that the four leaders together are not his opponents. This time we were discovered. Recently, I advise you not to have any other thoughts, otherwise you won't know how to die."

When Pritt said later, his voice became smaller and smaller, because he remembered that not long ago, the Wandman had warned him to stay away from Zhang Jue, otherwise he would not know how to die.

The fact is also true. He went in to steal more than a hundred times in that palace and was never discovered by anyone.

After taking this wind to go in, the white leader caught him straight.

It's really back home.

But he didn't want to leave Zhang Jue behind.

Because he thinks this person is more interesting than others.

If he was afraid of death, he would have returned to his own world a long time ago. Why would he stay here?

After listening to Pritt's words, Zhang Jue nodded slowly, a bit regretful.

Now there are two worlds related to him, one is about to meet the end of the world, the other is already the end of the world, he has no time to wander here.

If it doesn't work, you can only break in with strength.

But this is the last resort.

He wanted to ask others, and wounded and killed the opponent's men. It couldn't be justified.

Zhang Jue was thinking about how to meet the Hanged King with the least cost, and suddenly heard a commotion outside.

Both he and Pritt looked out the window at the same time.

On the street below, many horse teams were slowly walking in their direction.

The cart behind the horse team swayed, seeming to be pulling a lot of goods.

Zhang Jue was guessing what they were doing, and Pritt suddenly patted his paw.

"Hey, buddy, don't you want to get into the palace again? The opportunity is here!"

Zhang Jue looked at him and didn't know why.

...

After Prit's popular science, Zhang Jue realized that the horse team underneath was a team from various countries that came to pay tribute.

The entire city-state of Alakada is very large, and the leading country where the Hanged King is located is only one of them. There are many dependent countries around it.

According to the previous agreement, the subject country must pay tribute to the host country every once in a while and donate a lot of treasures.

Because the Hanged King transformed Alakada into a world exchange, so many creatures came here admiringly, driving the development of other subject nations.

In the beginning, everyone paid tribute according to the agreed share, but after a long time, it will inevitably be a little bit grudge.

Obviously these treasures were earned by them themselves, why do they have to pay tribute to the king who can't see each other?

Several older country owners colluded, and the time between paying tribute became longer and longer.

Fortunately, everyone was afraid of the terrifying power of the king, so on the surface he was more respectful.

According to the rules, the masters of the subject countries should send the treasures to the palace, choose one of the best, and personally offer it to His Majesty the King to show their loyalty.

For Zhang Jue, this is a golden opportunity.

As long as he can get into the tribute team, there is a high probability that he will see the Hanged King.

It's a good way.

Zhang Jue immediately turned over and went downstairs, while Pritt became a little mouse, hiding in his hair.

Actually, there is no need for Zhang Jue to find each other by himself.

Because there were too many people on the horse team, the whole street hotel was booked by them.

The vacant house next to Zhang Jue was all full of people.

Zhang Jue turned around, probably familiar with their distribution, then returned to the room again, listening to the movement outside, quietly waiting for the opportunity.

When the noise rang out, Zhang Jue raised his head and looked out the window.

There seemed to be a fight on the street outside.

A monster covered in scales was competing with a floating rock.

If it hadn't been for the rock to suddenly give birth to wings, Zhang Jue wouldn't even know that it was a creature.

After listening for a while, I probably understood the ins and outs of the matter.

The scaly monster thought that the "stone" was just an ordinary stone, so it owed it and kicked someone else.

Originally, an apology would be the end of the matter, but Stone was also a violent temper, and the two quickly developed from cursing the street to fighting.

Those who can come here to seek transactions must have certain strength in themselves, otherwise they won't even be able to protect the goods.

The strength of these two monsters is particularly strong.

At the beginning of the fight, I was ready to enlarge the move.

Zhang Jue could even feel the strong murderous aura on both sides.

Compared with them, the octopus and the one-eyed monster are simply weak.

Zhang Jue was trying to see how people from other universes were fighting, but the host country lord who lived next to him walked into the street and interrupted their duel.

The country lord said a word to both sides, the two "people" looked at each other, and then went upstairs with the lord.

Both Zhang Jue and Pritt were very curious about what the Lord said to them that the two sides actually let the war really cease.

The sound of footsteps sounded, and in a blink of an eye, they had already gone upstairs and entered the next room.

Pritt couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, and turned into a little mouse, and said to Zhang Jue: "I'm going to eavesdrop."

When he finished speaking, he ran out through the crack in the door.

Zhang Jue didn't have time to stop him.

The two alien creatures are obviously very strong just now, so don't turn them into rats.

It was a long time before the little mouse Pritt got in through the crack in the door.

After turning back into a human form, he put his ears on the door to confirm that no one had spotted him, and then he was relieved.

Seeing him cautiously, Zhang Jue smiled and said, "Is there anything to notice?"

"Yes, there are big discoveries!"

Pritt picked up the water glass on the table and took a big sip.

"I heard that they seemed to be soliciting thugs."

"Thug?" Zhang Jue was puzzled.

"Yes, thugs." Puri nodded, "Some merchants are afraid that their goods will be robbed. They usually hire some people to protect them with a certain amount of revenge, which is called ‘thugs’ here."

This is understandable.

Everyone comes here to trade from different planes, and their strengths are different.

If the goods are very expensive, you really need to find a bodyguard for protection.

But there seems to be a problem here.

Zhang Jue asked: "Aren't they here to pay tribute to His Majesty the King? What do you want to do with thugs, are you afraid that someone won't be able to grab it?"

"It's really weird." Pritt has been here for a long time, and he has seen tribute from the subject country two or three times.

But no one can be compared with this time.

Not only has the cargo doubled than before, but there are even more guards.

And they were soliciting along the way, and it seemed that they didn't mean to stop.

"They... shouldn't they want to rebel." Pritt suddenly felt cold in his back, and instinctively felt that something big was going to happen.

"It's not that there is no such possibility." Zhang Jue nodded, he didn't care about this kind of thing.

Under whose rule this city-state has nothing to do with him, he just wants to leave here as soon as possible.

It does not matter if you return to your own world or the world of the Authority.

But if you can get the goodwill of the Hanged King, the probability of success will be slightly higher.

After some thinking, Zhang Jue decided to join the teams of these dependent countries and become their "thugs."

After entering the palace, find a way to meet the Hanged King.

But how to get the attention of the next door and let them invite themselves to join the team is another problem.

Zhang Jue thought for a while, then snapped his fingers: "Yes!"

He looked at Pritt: "You should be able to grow bigger and smaller at will."

"Yes, but no matter how I change, the weight is the same. What's wrong?"

"It's okay, as long as it looks bluffing."

Zhang Jue laughed and went out with Pritt.

...

There is no sun in the sky of the lost city of Alakada, only a few constellations of unknown planets.

Without the sun, there would be no day and night, and there would be no three meals a day.

Most people here drink when they are thirsty and eat when they are hungry. There are no rules at all.

The subject country owner next door was eating, and suddenly heard a rumbling noise outside.

He looked out subconsciously, and saw a huge mouse suddenly appeared in his line of sight, looking at him from the hotel window.

The host was terrified.

He has seen many anomalous creatures,

But this is the first time I have seen such a big mouse~www.novelmt.com~ eyes are as high as his windows, and the body below fills up the streets.

He was about to shout for the guards on duty outside the door, but suddenly heard a lazy voice from the street, and a strangely dressed man slowly walked towards the giant mouse.

"A good dog doesn't stand in the way, and a good mouse doesn't stand in the way. You are so big. How much food do you have to eat? Get out of here!"

As he said, he kicked the rat's ass.

The Shuo Mouse screamed and screamed, it seemed very painful, the next second, it slowly became smaller, and finally disappeared.

And the strangely dressed person, with his hands in his pockets, didn't seem to take this as a thing at all.

He took out a toothpick and held it on his mouth, showing his master's demeanor.

I, Cao, this is a master.

The lord's eyes suddenly widened.

"Guard, guard! Go and bring that man up to me! No, I will go down myself!"
