Captulo 1498: Chapter 21: Mobilization! (Part 2)
But when Casro appeared,
The residents of District 29 suddenly fell silent.
It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over them.
The flames burning in their hearts were extinguished.
All that was left was fear.
That’s right, fear.
After District 26 was ‘erased’, ‘Jing’s’ reputation in the lower Ring City District reached an unprecedented level.
It inspired terror.
It commanded awe.Of course, more than anything, it invited worship.
In ‘Nightless City’, brutality is not considered a derogatory term.
In fact, often, brutality is regarded as praise.
Casro, keenly aware of the surroundings, curled his lips into a smile that could frighten a child to tears, waved to the people around, and said, “Move the stuff.”
Immediately, a dozen strong men jumped off the truck and started unloading supplies from it.
Boxes filled with canned goods were placed in front of the gate of District 29.
All the residents of District 29 watching couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.
Real canned meat is rare in the lower Ring City District of ‘Nightless City’.
Apart from a few with status and power, ordinary people simply can’t get any.
At most, they eat some ‘meat cans’.
The so-called ‘meat cans’.
As for what kind of meat is inside, it’s best not to investigate too deeply.
It might be rat.
Or it might be cockroach.
Or perhaps…
The point is, nobody would want to see the ingredient list.
As for the taste?
Dry and sour.
Yet even so, such ‘meat cans’ are in high demand.
After all, compared to the equally sour and moldy ‘bread’, these ‘meat cans’ are considered good.
But compared to real canned meat, what are they worth?
Especially when Casro, under everyone’s watchful eyes, opened a real canned meat and poured it straight into his mouth, all the residents of District 29 started swallowing their saliva. ꞦÃ₦ỔꞖËs
Clang.
Having finished the real canned meat, Casro tossed it on the ground, sending it rolling towards the distant street.
When it rolled beyond a certain range, some of the residents of District 29, unable to restrain themselves, rushed out towards the empty real canned meat.
The real canned meat was empty.
But there was still grease inside the can!
Even licking it would be worth it!
Many residents of District 29 held this thought.
The next moment, these people charged towards the empty can on the ground as if they were mad.
Fists and feet collided.
Blood splattered.
"Hahaha.”
"Look at them, don’t they look like a pack of dogs fighting over bones?”
Casro laughed loudly.
The subordinates around him laughed along with him.
Arrogant and unscrupulous.
To them, the bottom-tier residents of District 29 really weren’t worth caring about.
Calling them dogs was an elevation.
To be serious, they were less than dogs.
Why were they alive?
Simply because there wasn’t a suitable reason to die.
But now?
That reason had arrived.
Thinking of his boss’s instructions, Casro jumped onto the box of cans and shouted in the loudest voice with a commanding tone, “Do you bastards want to eat real canned meat?”
Immediately, the fighting stopped.
The bleeding residents of District 29 looked at Casro.
Casro also looked at them.
Then, he revealed a terrifying smile.
He said.
"Now, I’m giving you a chance.”
"Go to District 30 and find Jason and Lauren Delder.”
"My boss ‘Jing’s’ promise still stands.”
"And, as long as you enter District 30, everyone can receive a canned meat every day.”
"Limited quantity.”
"There’s also a ti… ”
"Sir, I’m signing up!”
"Master Casro, count me in!”
Before Casro’s words were finished, a group of bottom-tier residents of District 29 scrambling for empty cans rushed to sign up.
They swarmed over like locusts.
But, they quickly stopped in their tracks.
Because Casro’s subordinates around him had already raised their guns.
To these mostly unarmed, and largely untrained in real combat, bottom-tier residents, the lethality of firearms was imprinted in their very bones.
"Anyone who wants to sign up, line up.”
"Don’t crowd.”
"After getting your canned food, wait aside.”
"The gate will open soon.”
After Casro finished speaking, he left the matters here to a subordinate.
And him?
Naturally, he had to deal with the more powerful residents of District 29.
These were the real forces the boss was hoping for.
The ones just now?
They were cannon fodder.
Behind the two trucks, within a temporary erected military tent, Casro saw six leaders from District 29.
Not all of them.
But they were the six greatest forces in District 29.
“‘Jing’ really is generous.”
"Not afraid these guys won’t recognize it after eating.”
A skinny leader said with a smile.
The words, indirect and sarcastic.
"After eating the boss’s canned food, no one dares not to recognize it.”
"Even though District 29 is bigger than District 26, if the boss wants to erase it, it won’t take much effort.”
Casro grinned.
The skinny leader frowned, and stayed silent.
However, soon, another leader with a face full of pockmarks spoke up.
"These guys, even if they enter District 30, they’ll hesitate, at most loitering at the edges, returning after it gets dark.”
Casro didn’t refute this leader’s words.
Because it was true.
"So, I need your help.”
Casro nodded, saying with a smile.
His eyes swept across the faces of the six leaders.
Everyone looked normal, but Casro knew that before he entered the tent, these six leaders of District 29 had already communicated, with the skinny leader and pockmarked leader being pushed forward.
Why?
Naturally, for greater benefits.
Implications in the words were about the incompetence of those bottom-level residents.
The subtext was that only their people would do.
Casro didn’t care about this.
This was exactly the situation his boss wanted to see.
Otherwise, just for those words from the skinny leader, he would directly twist the guy’s head off.
"Helping is fine, but how about the price?”
After the six leaders exchanged glances, a middle-aged man with a square face and slightly portly figure spoke.
Joseph.
The leader of District 29’s ‘Fiery Drink Skeleton’.
He seemed amiable but was brutal and savage.
His biggest hobby was making skull cups from his enemies’ skulls.
It’s rumored he has collected over a hundred skull cups to date.
And now, when he spoke, it showed he was the spokesperson in their brief alliance of six.
"The territory of District 26.”
Casro answered directly.
"Don’t joke, ‘Jing’ is smart, and we’re not fools.”
"Between District 29 and District 26, there’s District 27 and 28 in between.”
"Would the leaders there let us steadily gain power in District 29?”
Joseph sneered.
"Of course not.”
"Which is why our boss has invited the leaders of Districts 27 and 28 for tea.”
"I think they’ll agree.”
Boom!
Casro’s words were like thunder, stunning the six leaders present.
"I need to confirm the news.”
Joseph licked his lips and said.
"Of course you can.”
Casro answered.
Soon, close subordinates of the six leaders entered the tent, whispered commands, and these subordinates quickly ran towards Districts 27 and 28.
"They should be back soon.”
"Then you’ll be able to confirm if what I say is true.”
"But, before that, wouldn’t you like to hear the second offer my boss provides?”
Casro’s words made the six leaders pause.
There’s more?
But who would refuse more benefits?
After exchanging glances, it was still Joseph who spoke up.
"What offer?”
Joseph asked.
Casro looked at him, anticipating the surprise that would follow, and so, the ‘Six Evildoers of Jing’s’ smile turned wicked, silently mouthing a word—
Extraordinary Power.
