Chapter 1058: You're Welcome to Sanction Us
The loud noise immediately caught the attention of many around, including those captives laboring arduously in the mine.
"General, the General has arrived!"
The legion commanders and warriors from Universe 404 instantly recognized the aura of their two generals from their universe. It was as if they saw hope and dawn; they were saved!
Five days. They had been toiling here like beasts of burden for five days! Even though there were plenty of tools available, that scoundrel Zhang Menglong insisted they dig with their bare hands! Do you know what they went through these five days?
Their two generals were renowned level nine life forms, feared throughout the entire outer battlefield. Could the two of them not handle a level-nine elementary life form?
"What are you all doing? Not working anymore?" Several supervisors came out menacingly.
They were a few legion commanders from Zhang Dapao's fleet. They too were implanted with soul seals by Zhang Menglong, becoming his most loyal servants. They had trained with Zhang Dapao for a few days in the room of spirit and time, and after learning things that couldn't be learned in this world, they were completely different now.
Now, with just a few of them, they were enough to intimidate these "miners."
"Our generals have arrived. We fear you, but they do not!"
"I advise you people from Universe Seven to surrender immediately. If our generals get here, none of you will survive!"
"I'm afraid your level nine life form is already trampled underfoot by our generals now."
"Whip!" A whip lashed across their bodies. This was an eighth-level martial weapon specifically forged by Zhang Menglong for them. It not only hurt the flesh, but also carried soul attacks; striking a person led to cries of agony.
"What's going on?" A few students from the Super God Academy came over.
"Division Commander, it seems some of their generals have arrived, and they seem to be preparing to rebel." Although they were level eight life forms, they showed much respect for Zhang Menglong's students.
"Surrender? Where do you get the confidence?"
"With your worthless general? Soon he won't even know how he died!"
At this moment, a figure tore through the sky, crashing hard into a mountain.
Then, another figure swiftly passed by, and moments later, the latter person seemed to toss the former's body to the ground like a chicken.
When the people of Universe 404 saw those two, their hearts turned cold.
The one thrown to the ground was actually their general, Bodis, from Universe 404!
He had lost consciousness, his bones seemingly shattered, his body bloody and flesh mangled, and even his aura became extraordinarily weak.
And the one who just acted seemed to be the level-nine life form from Universe Seven!
Bodis was supposed to be a level nine high-grade life form. How could he be beaten to such a state by a level nine elementary life form? Judging by the time their auras appeared, it seemed they only traded one blow!
Their great general was crippled by just one move?
In an instant, they understood what despair meant.
"Impossible!" The general from Universe 404 still stood there in shock.
He hadn't even noticed what had happened earlier, and the battle was already over with such a straightforward and decisive outcome.
Although he was a level nine peak life form, he couldn't cripple his deputy general in such a short time either.
In other words, if he could cripple his deputy general like this, it wouldn't be difficult to defeat him as well.
"Weren't you coming to demand for your people? Let me see how you ask for them!" Zhang Menglong looked down at him, while Zhang Dapao stood beside him, looking predatory.
"I..." At this moment, he was truly afraid. This was the first time Nordzac felt such intense fear on this outer battlefield.
But as a level nine life form, his dignity would not allow him to yield to a mere level six life form.
"You of Universe Seven have violated the rules of this outer battlefield. Now, the entire outer battlefield is preparing to sanction you. I advise you to give up resistance—nothing good will come of it." Nordzac said with a threatening tone, trying to appear tough.
"Oh, I see. Is there anything else you have to say?"
Nordzac fell silent. Zhang Menglong was utterly fearless of heaven and earth; such petty threats meant nothing to him. Throughout his journey, how many times had he been threatened?
But he relished being threatened! After all, doing bad things often required a reason!
"Zhang Dapao, beat him!"
...
"Tsk, how miserable!"
"Tsk tsk, I guess even his own mother wouldn't recognize him now?"
"To act cocky with our legion commander, I respect them for being men."
As they watched their other general also lying there with only a breath left, the last sliver of hope extinguished for the legion commanders and warriors of Universe 404.
They sighed and obediently returned to the mine to continue their inhumane labor.
...
"Having people come to stir up trouble every now and then is indeed troublesome!" Zhang Menglong touched his chin, "It's time to send a warning to them all!"
Countless quantum robots were launched from Universe Seven's temporary base city toward the entire outer battlefield. Using curvature drive technology, within three days they could appear near almost all universes.
That day, nearly all universes received a signal from Universe Seven. They used quantum entanglement for a live broadcast where everyone could see everything happening in the mine. It was a broadcast directed at the entire outer battlefield.
"Is he the legion commander of the IPX-001 legion from Universe Seven?"
Nowadays, the name of the IPX-001 legion had spread throughout the outer battlefield. Everyone knew this legion single-handedly defeated thousands of universes and tens of thousands of legions. Their weapons and warriors were the strongest.
The most crucial thing was that they openly challenged the rules of the outer battlefield by letting a level nine life form intervene in the war.
"What do they want to do? Declare war on all of us?"
"Are they flaunting their power? Let's see how long they can continue."
"Hmph! It won't be long before they face sanction from all of us!"
Watching the young man in the video, the commanders from all universes clenched their fists quietly.
"Hello everyone, even though I don't know any of you, you all must know me. I'm Zhang Menglong, the legion commander of the IPX-001 legion. I know each one of you wants to stab me to death, but unfortunately, if you have the guts, jump in and kill me!" Zhang Menglong began with a tone that made people want to hit him.
"I'm a very generous person. Even though your people broke onto my territory, as long as you offer a bit of compensation, I'm willing to let them go. But some people feel they're so powerful and want to rely on force to make me submit, but their outcomes usually aren't too good!"
The live broadcast cut to the workers who were digging out the star cores.
"Bodis? Isn't that the deputy general of Universe 404?"
"Nordzac! The chief commander of Universe 404! He was captured too?"
"I heard the two of them went to Universe Seven to demand people back and ended up like this!"
"...This Universe Seven... isn't simple."
...
"I hope when you come to redeem your people, you come with sincerity, not malice. Otherwise, you can only join them," Zhang Menglong said with a smile.
"Also, I hear you're preparing to sanction us, Universe Seven," Zhang Menglong flashed a sly smile, "Feel free to sanction us. Make sure you don't go back on your word!"
