Chapter 1052 - 1052 – Miners (1/2)

”You can release him, Senior. We have everything under control,” one of the guards said to Gravis with a polite bow.

Gravis nodded.

The thief stopped attacking as the monsters disappeared from his vision.

For a second, he was confused, but when he saw the ten guards standing above him, he gritted his teeth in frustration and hate.

”I'll forget this transgression as long as you let me go! I'll warn you, my master is-”

SHING! BANG!

The armor of the guards started to shine with Formation Arrays, and one of the guards shot forward with incredible speed and kicked the thief in the face.

Gravis' eyebrows lifted with surprise.

That was really fast!

However, when Gravis saw the armor, he realized that the armor had the ability to combine the powers of several people into one person. In essence, this one guard now had the Energy and physical power of ten Immortal Emperors. That was how he had become so fast.

”We don't care,” the guard said with a stern voice. ”Comply or die!”

The thief's face had been kicked in, making his face unrecognizable, but it quickly healed in a second.

”My master-”

BANG!

Another kick. ”We don't care. Comply or die!”

”My-”

BANG!

”Comply or die!”

The guards obviously didn't care about the master of the thief.

This time, the thief said nothing. He only glared at the guards with hatred.

”Why do you think that no Peak Sect has ever tried to take control of the city?” the guard asked with disdain. ”We don't care who your master is. He could be the Sect Master from a Peak Sect, and we wouldn't care.”

”Comply or die!”

Did the guards truly not care about the master of the thief?

No.

Why?

Because this city had a powerful ruler. No matter who came, they could only talk with the ruler of the city, not use force.

Well, technically, the ruler of the city wasn't the official ruler, but she was the unofficial ruler.

Who was it?

The Economistress.

The Economistress had the power to rival weaker Divine Gods, which didn't make her the equal of the Sect Masters of Peak Sects, but she didn't have to be so powerful.

If someone arrived that could kill the Economistress, her husband would get involved.

Therefore, it really didn't matter who the master of the thief was.

”I will destroy the fruits!” the thief threatened.

BANG!

Another kick to the face. ”Comply or die! Don't test my patience!”

Rage exploded in the thief's heart, but he could only grit his broken teeth for now.

They would all regret this!

The thief summoned the fruits and glared at Gravis with hatred.

”You'll regret this,” he said with a venomous tone to Gravis.

Gravis checked the fruit and noticed that all of them were present and undamaged. Then, he nodded at the guards with confirmation that everything was fine.

”Take him to the mines,” the leading guard ordered.

The other guards surrounded the thief and activated a Formation Array that sucked all the Energy out of the thief and the area surrounding him. At the same time, the Formation Array also deactivated all the Laws below the seventh level in the area, making it impossible for the thief to do anything.
