Chapter 576: A change of master overnight (2)
Translator: 549690339
Two days after the fleet of the Arkas Empire set off, the king suddenly summoned Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai knew that the king might have something to do with the Arkas Empire fleet, so he did not say anything and immediately went to the palace in a carriage.
The king had summoned Zhao Hai alone to the back of the palace, in the king’s study. The king’s study was of course very well-known. After Zhao Hai bowed to the king, the king gave him a seat.
After Zhao Hai sat down, the king looked at him and said, ” Marquis Zhao Hai, do you know what the Arkas ‘fleet is doing? ”
Zhao Hai didn’t expect the king to be so direct. He immediately said, ” “Replying to my King, this subject knows.”
The king nodded and looked at Zhao Hai, ” “Then, Marquis Zhao Hai, do you have any plans to deal with this? You must know that the island of gold was given to you by the Rosen Empire. You must not let those barbarians from the Arkas Empire take it, do you understand?”
Zhao Hai quickly replied, ” I understand. Please rest assured, my King. The Golden Island will always be a part of the Rosen Empire. It is the territory of the Buda family. I will not give it to anyone. Please rest assured, my King. &Quot;
Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, the king’s expression softened. He nodded and said, ” &Quot; it’s good that you understand, Marquis Zhao Hai. What I want to tell you is that you are now a Marquis of the Roson Empire, which means that you are a citizen of the Roson Empire. If anyone dares to threaten you with force, the Roson Empire will not stand by and do nothing. &Quot;
Zhao Hai understood the king’s intentions. The king was afraid that Zhao Hai did not have the power to resolve this matter, so he told Zhao Hai that if there was something he could not resolve, the Roson Empire could help him.
Zhao Hai immediately smiled. &Quot; don’t worry, my King. I still have the ability to deal with the little thief who broke into my house. However, I would like to invite the little thief into my house. I will then close the door and not let them escape. &Quot;
When the king heard what Zhao Hai said, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately laughed and said, ” &Quot; good, Marquis Zhao Hai. Remember your words and don’t disappoint me. &Quot;
“Please rest assured, my King. I will not disappoint you,” Zhao Hai stood up and bowed.
The king nodded. &Quot; alright, you may leave. This King shall watch your performance. &Quot; &Quot; yes, master! &Quot; Zhao Hai replied and left after bowing.
It had been eight days since Zhao Hai’s 10-day declaration. There were only two more days until the deadline, and the fleet of the Arkas Empire would arrive at Golden Island in two days.
Now, everyone’s attention was on Zhao Hai. They wanted to see what Zhao Hai would do, but they were disappointed. Zhao Hai did not do anything. He continued to stay in the dark Soldier fortress every day, occasionally attending a banquet and showing his face in front of people. After that, he did nothing.
At this point, many people on the continent believed that Zhao Hai had acknowledged the bear. In their opinion, this was not Zhao Hai’s fault. The other party had sent out more than 500 warships, including more than 200 5-masted ironclads and more than 300 3-masted ordinary warships. There were hundreds of thousands of sailors alone, and among them were nearly 1000 level 8 experts from the Arkas Empire. It was said that there were even level 9 experts. Under such circumstances, it was only natural for Zhao Hai to acknowledge the bear.
However, some of the nobles still wanted to laugh at Zhao Hai because the Buda family was too famous in the past.
Two days passed in a flash. At this time, people who had been paying attention to the fleet of the Arkas Empire found that the fleet of the Arkas Empire had entered the waters of the Golden Island and was preparing to dock. It seemed that they were going to stay there for a long time.
Sure enough, as soon as the fleet of the Arkas Empire docked, the Arkas Empire immediately announced the name of the island of gold to the outside world. The island of gold was an inseparable territory of the Arkas Empire, and they wanted to build a naval base on the island of gold.
Hearing the Arkas ‘declaration, the people of the continent were all speechless. They turned their attention to the Roson Empire at the same time. In their opinion, there was nothing to pay attention to Zhao Hai now. They should pay attention to the Roson Empire and see how they would respond to the obvious provocation of the Arkas Empire.
However, what made the people of the continent feel strange was that the Roson Empire did not respond at all, as if this matter had never happened.
The people on the continent were in an uproar once again. They had never thought that the usually powerful Roson Empire would actually swallow their anger. This was too abnormal!
Under the gaze of everyone on the continent, the Naval base of the Arkas Empire was completed in only 10 days. During this period, Zhao Hai didn’t make any response. However, the Arkas Empire had been trying their best. Cargo ships entered the Golden Island one after another and unloaded the building materials on the ships. After that, they left without stopping for even a minute. Meanwhile, the hundreds of thousands of people on the island were working hard to build this naval base. With the help of a few mages, they were able to build a naval base in ten days.
The establishment of this naval base marked the victory of the Arkas Empire. In people’s eyes, it would be difficult for the Roson Empire to take Golden Island after the establishment of the Naval base. Now, no one thought about the Buda family.
Ten days after the fleet of the Arkas Empire entered the island of gold, the Naval base of the island of gold was officially built. When the base was celebrating, countless undead creatures suddenly appeared on the island of gold. They appeared on the Arkas Empire’s warships that were docked at the dock of the island of gold, and a massacre began.
No one knew what had happened on the island of gold that night. They only knew that the next day, the flag of the Arkas Empire on the island of gold had disappeared. The flag of the Buda family was floating on the island of gold. The Naval base of the Arkas Empire on the island of gold had become the training base of the Buda family’s fleet. At the same time, the sea was blocked, not allowing any ships of the Arkas Empire to approach the island of gold.
This night’s change shocked everyone on the continent. They didn’t know what had happened. Could it be that the fleet of the Arkas Empire had betrayed them?
Just as everyone on the continent was confused, Zhao Hai set off from Carson City. He first took a carriage, then a boat, and headed straight for Golden Island.
Everyone’s attention was focused on Zhao Hai. He was still the same as before. He had two servants, three fiancées, and a maid. There was no one else. There was only one carriage and one boat.
However, everyone on the continent would make way when they saw the carriage and the ship. They wanted to see what would happen to Zhao Hai when he reached the island of gold. Would he be warmly welcomed or would he be beaten back?
Soon, they found out that when Zhao Hai was approaching the waters of the island of gold, all the Arkas ‘fleet that was parked on the island came out and guarded Zhao Hai’s ship. They brought Zhao Hai to the island, and when Zhao Hai got off the island, they immediately said,”All the Navy of the Arkas Empire on the Golden Island have become undead creatures. If it wasn’t for the Arkas empire building a complete naval base for him, the fleet of the Arkas Empire would have been wiped out the day they landed on the island. It’s also a warning to all those on the continent who want to invade the island of gold. Take this fleet of the Arkas Empire as an example!”
As soon as Zhao Hai’s words came out, the people on the continent immediately fell into a deathly silence. They did not doubt Zhao Hai’s words because the moment Zhao Hai made his statement, the Arkas Empire sent another fleet to attack Golden Island. However, they were repelled by the original fleet. During the battle, the people on the Arkas Empire’s second Fleet realized that everyone in the original fleet had become undead creatures!
After confirming the validity of Zhao Hai’s statement, everyone on the continent felt a chill run down their spines. They were shocked and terrified by Zhao Hai’s methods! In their eyes, Zhao Hai was no longer a human, but a living demon!
