Global Lords: Starting with Female Hero Fusion

Hearing that the quotas had been reduced, smiles bloomed uncontrollably on everyone’s faces.

Even the old face of Team Leader Zhao Shizhang broke into a smile.

Although everyone knew that while things were easier now, this relief hadn’t come for free.

They would have to face even stronger enemies.

But even without the reduced quotas, they would still have had to fight.

At least being a little stronger now was a good thing.

Zhao Shizhang said gratefully, "Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness Zhao Quan. Our entire clan will certainly improve our strength as quickly as possible to better serve you."

A faint smile appeared on Zhao Quan’s face.

"Good. Have you used the items I gave you last time? Have you improved?"

Zhao Shizhang nodded. "They’ve all been distributed and used. Our strength is thirty percent greater than before."

Besides Zhao Shizhang, the other clan elders also thanked Zhao Quan one after another.

Zhao Quan waved his hand. "It’s a small matter. Focus on building up your strength these next few days. I’ve already caught the trail of a group of rats. Once I’ve blocked off all their holes, I’ll have a use for you."

"Understood. We will do our best."

Zhao Quan nodded. "Alright, that’s all for today. I’m leaving."

Zhao Quan turned and left.

Zhao Tan and dozens of Black Armored Soldiers immediately followed.

Zhao Shizhang also hurried to keep pace with them.

When the other Lords saw their Clan Leader follow, they all trailed along.

Zhao Chi followed in the crowd, letting out a huge sigh of relief in his heart.

’Looks like I’ve gotten away with killing Zhao Ji.’

The group walked out of the public building and onto the road.

Zhao Quan got into the Spiritual Energy Vehicle and was just about to start it when he saw another group of people appear nearby.

"Wait."

Zhao Quan raised his hand.

Everyone stopped.

Zhao Quan got out of the vehicle, his brow furrowed.

"What are they doing here?"

Everyone looked over.

The distant group numbered about fifty people.

At the front were five people riding black stallions.

The four on the sides were dressed in Golden Soft Armor.

Their skin was fair and smooth, their faces handsome—they were all nobles.

But the person in the very center had a strange Appearance.

His facial features were fine, but something about them just seemed off.

He wore cyan Exotic Armor.

Its style was bizarre, not the conventional Standard Armor.

’Who is this person?’

’How can he be walking in the very center?’

’Even nobles have to flank him.’

The Soldiers behind them were also split into two groups.

One group consisted of the familiar Black Armored Soldiers of the nobility.

But the other group also wore the cyan Exotic Armor, and their Helmets were especially large.

The fronts of the Helmets sported two iron horns that pointed toward the sky.

These people walked with a swagger, giving off an air of being extremely free and unrestrained.

Although Zhao Chi had never seen them before, he could guess.

These had to be the Alien Races.

The term "Alien Race" was very broad.

Anything other than Humans could be called an Alien Race.

Elves, Beastmen, Goblins, and so on were all Alien Races.

These Intelligent Races each had their own settlements and cities.

They also fought against Magical Beasts everywhere.

These Races also had many Lords who used the World Stone to open up territories.

They were in competition with Humans.

Wars between them were also common.

After all, each side viewed the other as no different from Magical Beasts, making attacks and exterminations seem justified.

But it was unclear which Alien Race these newcomers belonged to.

They didn’t look very different from Humans, except their faces were truly unattractive.

The group quickly drew near.

A noble on horseback to the left said to the man in the center, "Master Muchang, this is the place. We’ve arrived at just the right time; the Zhao Family has already gathered."

The man in the center nodded. "Excellent. Let’s go."

The group dismounted in unison and walked over.

Zhao Quan went to meet them.

Zhao Tan and Zhao Mu followed close behind.

Zhao Shizhang remained where he was.

He knew that in this situation, he was not qualified to go over.

Zhao Quan said, displeased, "Du Li, what are you doing here?"

The noble on the left, Du Li, retorted scornfully, "What’s wrong? Do you have something to hide? Afraid of people showing up?"

Zhao Quan snorted. "My Holy Flame Clan is nothing like your East Nether Family. If you have something to say, say it quickly."

Du Li said, "Do I even need to say it? The higher-ups asked Master Muchang to come and assist with the investigation. What the hell could you possibly find with your half-assed skills?"

Zhao Quan sighed.

Then he said, "Master Muchang, I will get to the bottom of things in this village. Don’t believe their nonsense."

Muchang forced a smile.

One could tell he didn’t speak fluently, but he spoke very slowly and clearly.

"It is no matter. I have come to help you handle this. I hope Your Highness Zhao Quan will not mind."

Zhao Quan said, "I am responsible for this village. The Zhao Family is my vassal family. I am perfectly capable of handling this; there is no need to trouble you."

Du Li said, "Zhao Quan, don’t you have a damn clue why I’m here? I am acting under orders from above to have Master Muchang investigate several nearby villages. These villages are highly suspicious. Is your vassal family exempt from being investigated?"

Zhao Quan sighed again.

He turned to Zhao Shizhang and said, "Clan Leader Zhao, take your family’s Lords back. They need to be investigated again."

Zhao Shizhang nodded. With a wave of his hand, everyone returned to the courtyard of the public building.

Zhao Chi’s heart pounded violently.

’Where the fuck did this bullshit Master Muchang come from?’

’Where did he spring from?’

’I don’t know what kind of powerful methods he has.’

’But at this point, all I can do is leave it to fate.’

Soon, everyone was back in the large courtyard.

Du Li and Master Muchang entered the courtyard with their people.

Zhao Quan also came in, bringing Zhao Tan and Zhao Mu.

Du Li announced loudly, "Last night, a noble was murdered! The suspects are the Lords from the several villages in this area, so the higher-ups are taking this very seriously. But don’t get the wrong idea. It’s not the noble they care about, but the very act of killing a noble!"

Hearing this, the Zhao Family members finally understood what was happening today.

But they were still puzzled by the second half of his statement.

Only Zhao Chi understood.

He had previously guessed that Zhao Ji and Zhao Quan were from the same family, and now it was confirmed.

Du Li and Zhao Quan clearly couldn’t stand the sight of each other.

That’s why he said they didn’t care if Zhao Ji himself lived or died; what they cared about was someone daring to attack the Identity of a noble.

Sure enough, Zhao Quan was glaring at him.

But Du Li was completely unfazed. "Master Muchang, you may begin."

Muchang nodded. "Go."

The troop of Alien Race Soldiers approached from both sides.

They began to inspect the Lords one by one.

A short member of the Alien Race came to stand before Zhao Chi, who noticed that its eyes were somewhat red.

But its gaze was filled with Killing Intent.

Zhao Chi wasn’t afraid of such Killing Intent; he was only afraid of what they might discover.

The Alien Race member in front of him just stood there, staring at him for a moment while sniffing the air.

Then it left.

’Is the inspection over just like that?’

Zhao Chi was very confused.

But he saw it was the same for everyone else.

After the Soldiers left the Lords, they stood before Master Muchang.

Master Muchang nodded. "I see."

A moment later, Du Li seemed to receive some kind of information.

He pointed his finger and said, "You, you, you, and you and you. Get over here!"

He pointed out nine people in a row.

Seven men and two women—nine Lords in total.

Zhao Chi was among them.

Zhao Chi’s heart was in his throat, but he forced himself to remain calm.

The other Lords stepped forward, and Zhao Chi joined them at the front.

Master Muchang said, "All these people have been to Strong Fragrance Food Street. Among them, these six have abnormally high strength. Something’s not right."

Zhao Chi was one of the six.

A surge of anger inevitably rose in Zhao Chi’s heart.

He desperately wanted to snap Master Muchang’s thick fingers.

Du Li shot a sidelong glance at Zhao Quan. "Is this what you call a finished investigation? What did you find?"

Zhao Quan frowned. "So what if they went there? It’s just a matter of a few Gold Coins in fines."

Du Li said, "And what about these six? Their Ability has increased abnormally. They’re the most suspicious!"

’Suspicious my ass,’ Zhao Chi thought.
