Chapter 150

~5 min read 958 words

After this incident with the Ninth Prince, the soldiers' morale soared.

And the morale of the men in black dropped to the bottom.

In a moment, except for the leader of the men in black, the rest were slaughtered by Wang Li and the others.

But before Wang Li could interrogate him, the leader of the men in black took poison and committed suicide.

Thus, all the men in black were annihilated, and there were no clues left.

Nothing could be found on them to prove their identities.

The scene was covered in blood and flesh, like a small hell on earth.

Wang Li, used to such scenes, was not afraid in the slightest and rushed to Ying Ying Zi Ye's side.

Seeing that the Ninth Prince was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He knelt down immediately.

"This general failed to protect you; please punish me, Ninth Prince!"

The other surviving soldiers also knelt down.

"We failed to protect you; please punish us, Ninth Prince!"

"We failed to protect you; please punish us, Ninth Prince!"

The soldiers' eyes were fearless, looking at Ying Ying Zi Ye with burning intensity.

They were not afraid of death; it was their fault, and they were willing to accept punishment!

"Get up, all of you!"

"Do I look like I'm injured?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled faintly, not caring at all.

He caught an arrow, and the skin on his hand wasn't even grazed.

And it was he who had stepped out himself, so how could he blame the soldiers for failing to do their job?

The soldiers' eyes were bloodshot; following such a reasonable master, even if they were to die immediately, it would be worth it!

"Clean up the battlefield and transport the bodies of the soldiers back."

"You've worked hard today; everyone gets a reward of one hundred coins! The families of the fallen soldiers will receive a pension of one thousand coins!"

"Understood!"

The soldiers cleaned up the battlefield with red eyes.

The protection work was not done well, yet the Ninth Prince not only didn't punish them but also gave them reward money.

This made them feel ashamed; at this moment, all the soldiers had only one thought.

If they encounter such things again in the future, they must protect the Ninth Prince with their lives!

Half an incense stick later.

"Ninth Prince, the trail is broken; we don't know who did this."

"What should we do?"

Wang Li was somewhat helpless; he didn't even know who the other party was, so how could he investigate?

And why would someone suddenly come to assassinate the Ninth Prince?

"Let's go back first and then plan."

Ying Ying Zi Ye got into the carriage.

However, the long-lost voice of the National Destiny Manifestation System rang out.

【Checking the host's current situation; remnants of the Six States are assassinating the host, their resentment is unextinguished; the host is given the following three choices.】

Choice 1: Personally lead troops to Kuaiji Commandery to suppress the remnants of the Six States; Reward: Manufacturing blueprints for super individual crossbows, and Divine Archery Technique!

Note: The effective range of the super crossbow can reach 800 meters! The Divine Archery Technique allows for hitting a willow leaf from a hundred paces!

Choice 2: Disdain the petty villains, send soldiers to capture the remnants of the Six States; Reward: Manufacturing blueprints for shared bicycles.

Choice 3: Pretend this never happened; Reward: A set of Ninja Turtle shells!

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at the choices on the virtual light screen and chose one without hesitation.

The reward for 2 would actually be manufacturing blueprints for shared bicycles.

This couldn't help but add a picture to his mind.

Great Qin didn't have many horses, and not everyone could have a horse to ride.

If there were bicycles, and the people of Great Qin all rode wooden bicycles out, it would feel strange just thinking about it.

If soldiers also rode bicycles to travel, that scene would really be...

Actually, the bicycle manufacturing blueprint reward wasn't bad, but the first reward was more suitable for him now; what is suitable is the best.

Super individual crossbow! Effective shooting range of 800 meters!

If every Qin Ruishi had a super crossbow, then even if they fought outside Great Qin in the future, no one would be a match for them!

It wasn't that Great Qin didn't have crossbows that could shoot 800 meters, but those were big things, big killing weapons, bed crossbows used only for capturing cities.

Bed crossbows were very large, like war chariots, requiring several people to work together to use; how could they be as convenient as this super individual crossbow?

Ying Zi Ye only then noticed Kuaiji Commandery; he didn't expect the system to be so thoughtful as to even mark Kuaiji Commandery.

Kuaiji Commandery, it seemed, was the base of operations for the Xiang family.

Ying Ying Zi Ye rubbed his chin; if that was the case, the people who assassinated him couldn't be separated from the Xiang family.

Truly bold, daring to assassinate him.

He hadn't even looked for trouble with those remnants of the Six States, yet now they had come to his door.

It seemed this tax reform had touched their interests, and they wanted to get rid of him quickly.

【Choice successful, please complete this task within one month!】

One month?

The time from Xianyang City to Kuaiji Commandery was not short.

But there was still time.

Along the way, Wang Li and the others were on high alert.

Fortunately, there was only one assassination attempt, and they finally returned safely to Xianyang City. ===== CHAPTER 152 ===== Dragons Have Reverse Scales, Touch Them and You Die
