Chapter 880: Undead Mage Invades the City
Long before coming here, Zhao Guang had already had people investigate the intelligence of this place.
After all, spending so much money to set up an intelligence department wasn’t for nothing; it had to have some use.
Even though the time was short and they could only gather some superficial information, those were exactly the kind of information Zhao Guang wanted. For instance, how the local noble lords were behaving, what kind of reputation they had, and so on.
"Very well, this is the place." Zhao Guang looked at a city in front of him.
This is the largest city in this territory, one could even say it’s the only city.
If one only looked at this city, they would surely think the place is bustling, perhaps even commend the lord for excellent governance. But Zhao Guang knew that this was all the result of plunder.
The lord of this place, generation after generation, Keroro, had always advocated for a bandit mentality, and the entire army of the territory was no different from bandits.
Internally, they plundered all the citizens, concentrating all their wealth to sustain this single city, which created this façade of prosperity, while their people were left with nothing.
Subsequently, those impoverished citizens were transformed into a bandit army to carry out external raids.
It’s not just other countries they attacked, other territories were not spared either.
This practice allowed them to grow and expand, even becoming a real power among the noble marquis families in the south.
Luckily, this country was a Martial Arts Country, and their tolerance for such people was quite high. As long as those in power saw their strength and their ability to attack other countries, nothing else mattered.
