Chapter 945

But very quickly, she calmed down.

Su Yang didn't overdo it either. After satisfying his itch for hands-on action, he turned to the two thousand Islanders and said, "Alright, find yourselves a place to stay first!"

Two thousand Islanders were nothing, as long as they weren't spies.

Su Yang could take them all in.

As long as Sovereign Jiazi could serve the Huaxia Federation, even a hundred thousand Islanders, the Federation might take them in.

Anyway, if you tossed them into any city of a hundred thousand people, after a few generations, they might well forget where they came from.

"Let's go!"

Su Yang said to Sovereign Jiazi.

"Mm!"

For the time being, Su Yang couldn't let Sovereign Jiazi leave his sight either.

"Ding~ Congratulations, Host. Alone, with almost the strength of one person, you defeated the Island Nation and captured its sovereign. The small-scale national war mission is complete!"

The Island Nation, nowadays, could indeed only be counted as a small country.

Of course, their true strength could not be underestimated.

Their high-end combat power was certainly already approaching that of a mid-sized country!

"Ding~ Mission settlement complete. Small-scale national war mission rating: Perfect!"

On this point, there was no doubt whatsoever.

Because this time, the Southeast Military Department... hadn't really contributed much.

As long as the Island Nation surrendered, by merit, Su Yang's contribution to the victory was absolutely above ninety-five percent!

"Ding~ Host has received the Perfect rating reward: All bonded beasts gain one selectable Mythical-grade resistance talent (also effective for future beast contracts), one chance to randomly strengthen a variant bonded beast's elemental affinity, one Perfect-grade large-scale buff-type skill, and one mandatory bonded beast cultivation contract scroll!"

"Ding~ Claim the reward?"

"Hold on a moment!"

Now was not the time to claim the reward.

The moment Su Yang stepped into the city on Sovereign Jiazi's Profound Mystery Sea Giant Turtle's back, his brow furrowed.

"The people in your city... have they been cleared out?"

The instant Sovereign Jiazi heard Su Yang's words, she was briefly startled, then immediately used her spiritual power to scan.

The small city wasn't large. The spiritual-type bonded beast within Sovereign Jiazi was extraordinarily powerful, and in an instant it scanned out every living being inside the city.

"It seems there are still over three thousand people who haven't left! Most are ordinary folk, a small number are beast tamers, none of them particularly strong." She drew a deep breath and said, "They should clearly have been cleared out. It was General Zao Tian and the others who gave the order, telling all the city's residents to relocate to other islands. I was under house arrest at the time—the Profound Mystery Sea Giant Turtle told me!"

Su Yang glanced at Sovereign Jiazi, feeling she wasn't lying.

Besides, there was no need to hide it from him!

These extra three thousand-plus Islanders could never have escaped the eyes of a King-level powerhouse.

Strictly speaking, this didn't seem to be any big deal!

But Su Yang's face still instantly went cold.

He commanded in a low voice, "Duanmu!"

"Lord Su Yang!"

Danmu Baihui stepped forward.

She behaved with great deference!

Having boarded this ship, she knew whose orders she was to follow.

Now, her entire clan was aboard Su Yang's ship.

"Arrange people and arrest all three thousand-plus of them!" A bone-chilling killing intent rose from Su Yang's body. "Find out properly why they're still in the city. If there's no satisfactory answer, feed them to the sea beasts!"

"Yes!"

On Sovereign Jiazi's wooden expression, her brow also faintly furrowed.

PS: I'm hurrying to finish writing. This stretch of the story keeps getting locked, I can't get the measure right, it's messing with my head!
