Chapter 886: Purge -3
"You said it yourself, they are rats, you may solve your internal problems yourself, what do I care for~" Marshal Dayroth laughed, those local traitors were useful but they are nothing to care about.
"...Then what gives you this confidence? Do you think I won\'t be able to get you? Let\'s suppose for a second that I\'m weak and that I fail to bring your head, do you think that\'s the end?" Alexander smiled and passed his hand over his left eye, "Don\'t forget that Supreme General Caesar and Crown Prince Richard are still on our side, or have your injuries affected your mind?"
"Ugh..." Dayroth bared his fangs and growled at the sound of the two names, had he forgotten them? No. His broken body, his open wounds, reminded him every moment of the shameful incident of fleeing Caesar under the eyes of his soldiers.
But he wouldn\'t leave!
Even Alexander himself couldn\'t comprehend how serious the marshal was at this moment, The really didn\'t intend to leave.
Not because he was confident of victory and snatching a piece of the mother planet of a fully grown Planetary Empire by himself, but on the contrary, he had given orders to his army to flee the moment they spotted any potential enemy, he knew for sure that defeating the True Beginning Army was a fantasy, in the past two weeks, he hadn\'t been able to harm them even a little!
He didn\'t want to stay for the sake of the Great Serpent Empire\'s conquest or for honor and glory and such nonsense but for the sake of resources!!
When Planet Jura was invaded, the Marshal immediately ordered the expansion and search of the cities for anything of importance, perhaps information or food rations to help him complete his mission, but he found energy pearls, a lot of them!!
In the three or four weeks since the attack on Planet Jura began, his soldiers had managed to collect nearly 200,000 energy pearls from houses, academies, and other training institutions, a number that the Great Serpent Empire had not been able to collect in 10,000 years, and here he collected it in less than a month from public places and scattered houses!!
Then what if he took his time and searched more carefully under the houses, maybe find some mines, or hidden treasuries?!
And it wasn\'t just the pearls that caught his attention, they also found a huge number of Minor and Major law techniques, high-level energy weapons, designs for making divine weapons, talismans, arrays, and divine tattoos!!
He, as a respected marshal who had lived for thousands of years, had never seen this many treasures in the Great Serpent Empire, not even in the spoils of the mid-belt wars he had participated in!
If he returned to Planet Poison Rock with this amount of treasures, forget about compensating for the death of Marshal Straga, forget about the fact that he would have the right to demand more beast blood than what Paythor himself injected, forget that he would be the leader of the Marshals...
He could simply take these treasures to any other planet and start his own planetary empire!!
This idea had been going through Dayroth\'s head a lot in the past period, he has the ships, he has the resources, he has the army, he can return to the planet he was appointed Marshal on and become independent and declare it a private planetary kingdom!
And if used those hundreds of Law Techniques he found decently, he would soon form a planetary Empire.
Of course, he and his existing army can\'t fully use them, but he can use them on the remaining citizens of his planet... He was using them as mining slaves, but if appeared that luck had smiled for them, they would be the new source of his army soon enough!
The Planetary Emperor of the True Beginning would definitely be furious when he learned of the destruction he done to Planet Jura and about the stolen items, and he will no doubt make it harder for the Great Serpent Empire even more, maybe even attacking them in their own pace!
When it comes to that, both Paythor and Robin wouldn\'t have time to care about him.
In the meantime, he would strengthen himself and his army using these resources, and in a few years he would eventually defeat both empires after exhausting themselves, and he would be the final winner. "Hehe... hehe..."
"..." The dreamy smile that appeared on the Marshal\'s face at this moment made Alexander furrow his brows and mutter, "It seems Richard\'s hand was too heavy on him..."
After his short daydream, the Marshal returned to looking into Alexander\'s eyes, a confident smile on his face...
He doesn\'t want victory, he knows he won\'t get it, and he doesn\'t want the Flame Continent either, he wants time!
The time during which his fleets will be able to roam the planet and gather more and more resources to achieve his dream, if he can stall for one year... no, one month! If he can lure Alexander for one more month, he will withdraw from this place with his rewards.
Of course, if that human was stupid enough to swallow the bait and decide to give him the Flame Continent for ten years to search at his leisure, he wouldn\'t have a problem with that either~
"Marshal!" At this moment, a shout came from the side, interrupting Dayroth\'s idealistic thoughts, "Lookup!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
