BXBX NOVEL Chapter 362 The Prison
"Ummm, it kinda looks like a human, but are those wings on it?"
"Hey, isn't that a draif!?"
"Holy shit, he brought one back, why?!"
The crowd was full of clamor and voices as they stared at Reign and the others. Seeing a draif over Reign's shoulder made them all very curious about what had happened and why he had a goddamn draif on his shoulder.
"Hey, doesn't that draif look a bit familiar to you?" Someone in the crowd suddenly asked as the others all focused their gazes on the draif. Suddenly the draif turned his head around in anger and stared at them menacingly.
"Wait a second!"
"Isn't that the draif leader?!"
"It's him, I remember his face from when he attacked my team!"
The crowd suddenly fell silent after the words were spoken. The draif leader, the monster they had so many troubles with for the last couple of weeks was captured, and by the looks of it, Reign did it without even being scratched.
"But didn't Reign leave him to us to deal with?"
"It seems we were once again too weak so he had to jump in and help us out."
A couple of sighs could be heard in the crowd as most of them had a disappointed look on their face. The disappointment they felt was for themselves, time after time they have been saved by Reign and the others, after so much time had passed they thought things would be different, they had grown stronger and could deal with most of the monsters in Doncaster and the surrounding areas. But once again they needed help from Reign, just as they did many times in the past.
"Don't show me such a sight you guys, I got plans for this guy, that's why I took him with me, now whether or not the plan will work is another story, but don't worry, there's still plenty of monsters to hunt in the area." Reign scratched the back of his head as he looked at the crowd, he didn't think his actions would actually make such an impact on everyone, but he really did have a plan when it came to the draif leader, just one that might not really work well after seeing how angry the draif was after being pressured by him.
'If I can get him to submit and become my subordinate, and bring other draifs, I could create a special troop that would patrol the air at all times, making it nearly impossible for anyone to sneak in, not to mention that the draif's could quickly go and save any squads that were being overwhelmed by monsters.'
Reign's plan was a simple one. Having a troop of draifs that listened to him would be a great advantage their territory would have. Not only could they patrol and save people, but the speed at which they could do so would be many times greater compared to anything else. Even when a situation might be dire, the draifs could simply swoop in, grab the players and fly off with them.
Now the problem came with the fact that a lot of the weak draifs used to be human. They either intentionally decided to become monsters in order to gain great power, or they were forced by the leader to do so.
Thanks to that, most humans abhorred draifs. Even other monsters such as goblins and orcs were put into higher regard compared to them. Both of those monsters raped and killed, but the draifs actually forced humans to become monsters, something that nobody could forgive, of course it wasn't as if they would forgive the goblins and orcs, except for the ones they were allied with.
Reign's plan was one that was bound to face criticism, the chance of him actually going through with it was also slim as he didn't want to make the whole territory uncomfortable with the draifs. Of course, that wasn't the only reason as to why he captured the draif leader, but it was absolutely the most important one.
As Reign neared the center of the safe zone, Greenie came out to greet him. After seeing the draif on Reign's shoulder he looked at him with a confused expression before taking Reign to the prison. All the people that were coming to cause problems were put here, the prison was one of the new buildings in the territory that cost a pretty penny to be built.
Fortunately, even the cheapest option for the prison came with cells that could even hold Tier I combatants. Of course, all of them were empty right now because there have been no sightings of Tier I monsters or players anywhere nearby.
As Reign entered the prison with Greenie he was met with clamor. The prisoners all yelled and started cussing him and Greenie, after seeing the draif perched on his shoulder they all believed it was Greenie that captured it and that Reign was simply carrying it for the ogre.
"Silence." Reign said as he released his mana. The powerful pressure coming from Reign made the noisy prison fall silent immediately, the weak players that were put in the cells even fainted from the intense pressure, while the more powerful ones, the ones that Greenie captured personally all trembled in fear.
They could tell that the person in front of them wasn't inferior to the ogre in the slightest, no, if they compared the intense pressure coming from him to Greenie, he was probably even stronger. The sheer thought of someone stronger actually being in this territory made them break into a cold sweat.
They had previously been told by the guards, who were players that took on the mission to be guards, that Greenie was part of a group of 7, all of the 7 were equal to Greenie and some were even more powerful than him.
They didn't believe their words previously as the thought of such a powerful group existing was crazy, but after seeing Reign they all gulped in fear as they had second thoughts. A lot of them sat down and simply stared at the wall, they believed the guards and knew that with their strength they would never be able to get out of the prison with force, their only hope was that they would be let out by Greenie and the others later.
Reign took off the cuffs and chain from the draif leader before dropping him in a cell. The enraged draif immediately started attacking the cell, powerful hits struck the cell door which was glowing with a green light as it was reinforced with a powerful formation. Each of the attacks made the who cell shake and the prisoners could all feel the incredible power that was contained in each of the attacks.
"Yo, that monster, is it an elite?" One prisoner asked while others shook their head.
"No way, it's too strong for an elite, the mana pressure alone is even higher than the boss we previously fought against." Another prisoner gulped as he looked at the draif which was furiously attacking the cell with no intent to stop.
"You're telling me this guy took a boss in the prison, what kind of monster is he?!" Another exclaimed as he fearfully stared at Reign's back. Everyone in the prison soon realized that a powerful boss-ranked monster was caught by Reign, after seeing how he nonchalantly got into the prison and simply chucked the draif in the cell they realized that the fight was probably a one-sided beating as Reign had no injuries on him, there was not even a scratch.
"Just behave, maybe they'll feel bad for us and let us out." A big guy with a bushy beard said as he sat down and hugged his knees. He was a leader of one of the most powerful groups that arrived in the safe zone a couple of days ago, he and his teammates were all level 45 and they were a powerful force. They were however beaten black and blue by Greenie who captured them and put them here after they arrogantly thought they could take over the territory.
"I agree with the boss, let's just be nice." Another guy said as he lied down on the ground and stared at the ceiling, his eyes turned a bit watery as he imagined himself being locked up for months or even years to come. It was their own fault, who told them to come here and cause trouble after all?
"Those bastards, they told us that we could easily take over this safe zone, they played us like a fiddle!" Another guy said as he punched the wall with full power, the cell shook a bit from his powerful strike before he sat down and stared at the wall.
'Well, I'll let this guy rest here before Wolf comes, he's better at making people talk and submit than me after all.' Reign thought to himself as he turned around. 'I wanted to just take a look at the territory and rest a bit, but I couldn't help but overhear something nice'.
Reign smiled viciously before coming to the cell of the guy that punched the wall previously.
"So, you said someone told you to come here and take my territory huh?" Reign's ferocious smile made the man tremble a bit as he nodded his head quickly.
