Mechanical God Emperor

37 - The Great Knight Budd

Knight rank experts were not that easily recruited. A Knight rank expert's salary each month was 20 Gold Coins or higher, which was 240 Gold Coins or higher a year. 200 Knight rank experts, a year's salary would require 48,000 Gold Coins. If the various Knight rank expert's equipment were also added, then it would require an even more terrifying amount to be spent. Only Fernandro Principality's imperial clan and the likes could recruit up to 200 Knight rank experts.

Gars' eyes also flashed with a whiff of astonishment as he involuntarily cried out: "Knights? How could there be such formidable Knight experts? Could they all be Great Knights? Or else, how could they withstand the assault of those bandits?

Under the astonished gazes of those young men and women, the 200 level-4 mechanical Bladed-troops killed almost all of the bandits, they only spared the bandits' leader Budd with a cultivation of a Great Knight.

Even though those mechanical Bladed-troops were modified into a simplified version, they still weren't existences that ordinary humans could defeat.

"Impossible! What kind of monsters are you? What kind of monsters are you??" Budd brandished his blade and chopped at a level-4 mechanical Bladed-troop, seeing that he was being encircled by the 200 level-4 Bladed-troops his eyes flashed with a whiff of despair and he roared loudly.

200 level-4 Bladed-troops could hack Budd into tatters, even an Earth Knight rank expert also wouldn't be able to withstand the encirclement of 200 level-4 mechanical Bladed-troops.

Yang Feng swept Budd with a glimpse as he said indifferently: "Surrender! It just so happens that I lack a Great knight slave! I'll give you 3 seconds to consider, if you don't surrender then go to hell!"

Budd clenched the Zhanmadao in his hands, gnushed his teeth and said in a loud voice: "If Daren can promise not to sell me to a Warlock to do human experiments, then I'll surrender! Furthermore, I'm willing to serve Daren! Otherwise, Daren should just kill me!"

It is extremely easy to sell Great Knight rank slaves at the slave market! Some Warlocks carry out human experiments, they require test subjects at the Knight rank or higher. A lot of Great Knight ranks fall into slavery in times of war, once they enter the hands of those Warlocks, their end would be extremely miserable.

"Put on this head ring and collar! As long as you sincerely serve me, then I won't sell you to any Warlock." Yang Feng waved his hand and a mechanical Bladed-troop brought Budd a head ring and a collar.

"Yes! Daren! After Budd saw those items, his complexion changed slightly, he hesitated for some time, eventually he gave a long sigh, dropped the Zhanmadao in his hands, then put on the head ring and the collar.

Yang Feng said lightly: "These two items are Mysterious Treasures refined by the Steel Lord. Once you have harmful thoughts towards me, then you're entire person will blow up into chunks. So you need to behave."

Budd's complexion went through repeated changes, finally he said in an extremely docile manner: "Yes! Daren! I understand!"

In addition to the mechanical legion, Yang Feng still needs to expand his forces within Turandot Subcontinent. Great Knights such as Budd can also be considered as elite talents - when recruited to be his subordinates, he'll have everything to gain and nothing to loose.

"The Steel Lord's mechanical golem legion is truly powerful!" Gars said sincerely in admiration, then went in front of Yang Feng and said: "I'm Gars, the son of Warlock College Antalya's level-1 Warlock Abel, You who are being protected by the Steel Lord's mechanical golem legion, are You the Steel Lord's only kin Yang Feng?

Yang Feng smiled humbly and said: "Indeed, I'm Yang Feng."

Gars said: "Many thanks for rescuing us."

Yang Feng swept those young aristocratic kids with a glance, his eyes flashed with a whiff of peculiarity: "It was as easy as raising my hand! Furthermore, if I didn't guess wrong, then we're ought to become classmates soon."

Warlock College Antalya had an enrollment once a year, and the age of the recruited students was between 14 and 18 years old. Those students that travel to Warlock College Antalya were mostly past 14 years of age, they would first participate in Warlock College Antalya's examination and then join Warlock College Antalya. Thus, those more than a dozen aristocratic youngsters standing before Yang Feng were approximately 14 years old. With Gars being the oldest, with his only 16 years of age.

Yang Feng was already in his twenties, standing among those juveniles, gave one the feeling of a crane among a flock of chickens.

Gars stood beside those more than a dozen young men and women and introduced them to Yang Feng one by one.

The majority of those young men and women were aristocrats from Poten Principality. Originally, those aristocratic youngsters hired a mercenary corps and they also had their own joint protective troop of more than a 100 people - just the number of Knight rank experts that they hired was at 5. Only, traitors appeared within that large mercenary corps - the large mercenary corps crumbled under both inside and outside attacks. The joint protective troop was also nicely encircled and killed by the Storm Wolf's bandits, only those more than a dozen aristocratic youngsters managed to escape.

Shi Xue, with a touch of extravagant elegance, came out from within the camp and went beside Yang Feng.

When Shi Xue appeared, Gars and his group, regardless of male or female, all of their gazes were firmly attracted by her. She was not only astonishingly beautiful, but also had a natural talent of charm, making her attractive force towards males even more astonishing. Although Yang Feng had been constantly in contact with her, he also didn't dare to look at her too often. Otherwise, with his mortal flesh, he would have already drowned in her charm without any way to extricate himself.

Gars looked at Shi Xue, his eyes flashed with a whiff of infatuation as he said: "Yang Feng, can I get introduced to this fairy-like beautiful lady?"

Shi Xue's eyes were like limpid lakes, she smiled sweetly and then said: "Hello, I'm Shi Xue, Yang Feng ge-ge's mei-mei, very pleased to meet you!"1

Those aristocratic youngsters looked at Shi Xue's extremely beautiful smile for which men and women alike would kill for, with their minds in an uproar. Regardless if men or women, under Shi Xue's natural charm, all would develop a favorable impression of her.

A giant eagle was within the sky, on its back was a short eagle tamer lying prone while scouting, he then guided the eagle to fly towards the distance.

"Come more often! Use your flesh and blood to establish our Steel City's prestige." Yang Feng suddenly raised his head and looked towards the distant giant eagle, then whispered.

A Small Reconnaissance Satellite was floating high among the clouds. That floating Small Reconnaissance Satellite that was above Yang Feng, surveilled in all directions.

That giant eagle flew for a while until it finally landed within an enormous camp that extended continuously for more than 10Km and went towards the biggest tent.

Within the biggest tent, on the main seat, sat a brawny middle-aged male with a face full of knife scars, a pair of blue double-pupils, emitting a brutal aura.

This brawny middle-aged man with a pair of double-pupils was the leader of Hunting Tooth Wilderness' most cruel and formidable bandits, the butcher of thousand men Gria. He was a Sky Knight, and the only one in this Hunting Toot Wilderness with fighting prowess comparable to a level-1 Warlock's. The number of bandits and caravan guards that died under Gria's hands surpassed a 1,000 people, it was through countless close combat fights that he became Hunting Tooth Wilderness' most feared overlord.

"200 Knight rank mechanical golems! Additionally, he has 2,000 guards! In other words, he has 2,000 mechanical golem guards." After Gria finished listening to the eagle tamer's scouting report, his complexion became gloomy and he said slowly.
