Chapter 71 Taking Control of the Killing Capital, the New King of Slaughter
The Palace of the King of Slaughter is located in the heart of the inner city.
It resembles an ancient castle, entirely black, exuding an eerie atmosphere.
At the entrance of the main hall, two rows of black-armored knights, each wielding a heavy sword, stood silently.
At this moment, Su Mo and the captain of the enforcement team walked over one after the other.
The lead black-armored knight turned his head upon hearing the sound.
When he saw the law enforcement team leader, his clothes were tattered and he was covered in blood.
A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly stepped forward.
"Lord Blood Wolf, how did you get injured?"
Blood Wolf is the captain of the law enforcement team.
"I'm fine." Blood Wolf shook his head, then looked at Su Mo. "From now on, this man will be the new King of Slaughter."
As soon as Blood Wolf finished speaking, all the black-armored knights present turned their gazes to Su Mo.
Their eyes held surprise, confusion, and above all, disbelief.
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and pay homage to the great king!"
Blood Wolf frowned and shouted in a deep voice.
In an instant, the armor rattled, and the black-armored knights knelt down on one knee, heads buried deep, right fists pressed against their left chests.
"Greetings, Lord of Slaughter!"
Blood Wolf's status is second only to the King of Slaughter. Even he has bowed down to him, so these little minions naturally dared not say anything.
"Get up," Su Mo said calmly.
He then strode into the palace, with Blood Wolf following closely behind.
Before long, the two entered the main hall.
The main hall was dark and spacious.
Directly above was a huge throne, which looked like it was carved from a single giant stone.
"Great King, please."
Blood Wolf bowed deeply, speaking with a fawning expression.
Su Mo walked straight to the throne.
He paused for a moment before the throne, then turned and sat down.
The throne was somewhat cold and hard.
"Blood Wolf, tell me about your current situation."
"Yes, Great King."
"Currently, the enforcement team consists of five members besides me, all of whom are Contra Masters, with the strongest being level 86.
In addition, there are approximately six hundred Black Armor Knights in total. Each enforcer commands one hundred Black Armor Knights, who patrol the inner city in their respective areas, while the remaining Black Armor Knights are stationed at the royal palace."
Su Mo nodded slightly.
Six hundred people—that's not a large number.
However, in the Killing City where soul skills are forbidden, a well-trained team is enough to suppress the vast majority of the fallen.
Moreover, the five squad leaders are not only Soul Masters themselves, but also possess the right to use Soul Skills granted by the King of Slaughter. No one can escape from the City of Slaughter from their grasp.
Just as Su Mo was about to speak, light footsteps came from the palace door.
Soon, a woman entered the main hall.
It was the same guide who had previously received Su Mo.
She wasn't wearing a black veil at the moment; her features were delicate, and her appearance was quite good.
Her expression froze the moment she saw who was sitting on the throne.
"Lord Blood Wolf, why is Shura here? Where is the great king?"
Her gaze swept quickly between Su Mo and Blood Wolf.
Blood Wolf turned around. "The previous King of Slaughter is dead. Now, Lord Shura is the new King of Slaughter."
"What!" The guide's pupils contracted sharply.
The King of Slaughter is dead?
She knew the King of Slaughter's strength all too well; how could he possibly die?
But Blood Wolf's status is second only to the King of Slaughter, and even he said so, so she had no choice but to believe it.
Immediately afterward, a sense of unease welled up in her heart.
She was the most favored woman of the King of Slaughter, and this favor was her greatest asset in the City of Slaughter.
But now, her backer had fallen.
"What are you standing there for! Hurry up and pay your respects to the great king!"
The sound of Blood Wolf pulled the guide back from her daze.
The guide suddenly came to her senses, her legs went weak, and she knelt on the ground.
"Your subordinate has seen... seen the great king."
"Get up." Su Mo's voice came from above, revealing neither joy nor anger.
The guide stood up tremblingly, head bowed, not daring to glance at the throne.
The hall fell silent for a moment.
"Blood Wolf." Su Mo's voice rang out again.
"Your subordinate is here."
"Do you want to be the King of Slaughter?"
Blood Wolf's expression changed drastically in an instant.
With a thud.
He knelt down, his forehead almost touching the ground.
"Great King, your subordinate has no such thoughts! You are the true King of the City of Slaughter!"
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.
He thought Su Mo was going to settle scores with him. After all, he had attacked Su Mo not long ago.
"Are you misunderstanding something?"
Blood Wolf cautiously raised his head, his eyes filled with confusion.
Su Mo stood up and looked down at Blood Wolf.
"I won't stay in the Killing City forever. I need someone to manage this place for me. As for how you manage it, I won't interfere.
I have only one request: all rules must remain unchanged, and the corrupt must not be allowed to escape the City of Slaughter and wreak havoc on the outside world."
Blood Wolf's pupils slowly dilated.
"What, you don't want to?"
Blood Wolf snapped out of his daze of surprise. "Your subordinate is willing! Great King! Your subordinate will certainly keep the Killing City in good order for you! I will never let the Fallen Ones set foot outside this place!"
"Very good." Su Mo nodded slightly. "I have important matters to attend to now, so I will leave the management of the Killing City to you."
As Su Mo spoke, a small blood-red sword mark lit up between his brows.
At the same time, a dark red vortex suddenly appeared in the darkness above the hall.
The Asura Secret Realm is located within the royal palace of the City of Slaughter, and its passage can only be opened through the inheritance mark.
Su Mo lightly touched the ground with his toes, and his body disappeared into the vortex.
The vortex closed and disappeared.
The main hall returned to silence.
Blood Wolf stood there, head tilted back, staring blankly at the spot where the vortex had disappeared.
He didn't know what it was, and he didn't want to know.
All he knew was that he was now the King of Slaughter.
He walked step by step up the high platform and sat on the throne.
His hands greedily caressed the armrests as he looked around, his face filled with intense ecstasy.
Everything here was his now.
After stroking them for a moment, he looked down at the guide standing below, and his expression of ecstasy instantly turned into one of lewdness.
The guide was the woman of the previous King of Slaughter, and she had an excellent figure and appearance.
He certainly had other thoughts about the guide, but due to the power of the King of Slaughter, he could only put aside those unrealistic ideas.
But now, he was the King of Slaughter, and he could finally taste the life of a guide.
"Come over!"
"Yes, Lord Blood Wolf."
The guide dared not resist in the slightest; on the contrary, she was secretly pleased.
For her, living in a city of slaughter, clinging to the strong was instinctive.
The King of Slaughter was dead; Blood Wolf was now the new King of Slaughter.
As long as she served Blood Wolf well, nothing would change for her.
Soon, the guide knelt at Blood Wolf's feet, her eyes sparkling with a seductive allure.
Blood Wolf stretched out a hand, pinched the guide's chin, and licked his lips.
"Haha, not bad. You know what I mean. Hurry up!"
At this moment, Blood Wolf was already extremely hungry and thirsty.
"Yes, sir."
The guide skillfully lowered her head, her fingertips deftly reaching for Blood Wolf's waist.
