As soon as Hua Ruge entered, he realized that this was a place that resembled a beast battle arena. There was a ring-shaped arena in the middle, and people holding auction plates sat on all four sides, staring at the stage like wolves.
The light inside was dim, and the stage was especially bright. Hua Ruge looked over, and saw that there was a gigantic steel cage above, inside the cage was a female elf who was wearing a thin suit.
This elf girl had green hair, pointy ears, exquisite facial features, and was much prettier than most human girls.
The onlookers' eyes turned red as they shouted out a price of 2000 gold coins.
Hua Ruge swept his eyes across the place and saw a few hundred people here. He thought to himself that her Ancient Dragon City was not as poor as she thought, but they were still quite wealthy.
"You don't like it?" Hua Ruge turned and look at Tark.
Tark nodded heavily.
"Then go up and interrupt them." Hua Ruge instructed directly.
This was her territory, everything was hers, there was no need to use a roundabout way.
"Yes sir!" Tark agreed, he then rushed up to the stage and shouted, "Stop."
He had the strength of a 4-star esper, and now that he used his spiritual energy to shout, the whole building seemed to tremble. Everyone's eardrums hurt from the vibrations, and they looked at this scene in a daze.
Hua Ruge, however, nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "This temper of mine suits my appetite."
The Little Marten looked at her in dissatisfaction.
"Of course you're the best, but this boy is also not bad. If you go back and spar, don't kill him." Hua Ruge instructed.
When the Little Marten heard her praise, its expression calmed down.
The auctioneer was the first to react, asking, "You are a barbarian, why aren't you hiding at the edge of the forest, what are you causing trouble for?"
As the barbarians had not caused any harm to human beings for so many years, it was as if these people had forgotten the powerful strength of the barbarians.
"Lord told me to take action, do you have any objections?" Tark asked fiercely.
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned. It had been many years since they last heard the name Ancient Dragon City, and they had already forgotten that the Lord was the ruler of this territory.
However, everyone present had a certain level of standing in the Ancient Dragon City, and had all heard that a new Lord would come to this place.
However, for the past few years, there had always been news like this. However, due to various connections, no true lord had ever set foot on this land. It was one thing for them to have heard it, but they never expected it to actually happen this time.
"Even if a Lord comes, he would never interfere in our affairs, so don't speak carelessly." The host reacted quickly and immediately refuted.
Before Tark could speak, Hua Ruge slowly said, "Who said I don't care."
As she spoke, she slowly walked onto the stage. She wore a light purple robe that was noble and elegant, and although there was no deliberate might between her brows, her indifferent and confident gaze gave off a kind of intimidating pressure, making people feel as if they did not dare to go against her.
These people had heard that the lord assigned to them was a woman, but they had never thought that it would be a little girl, not to mention such a beautiful little girl.
"I am Hua Ruge, the new Ancient Dragon City Lord." Hua Ruge's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly spread throughout the entire audience and reached everyone's ears.
"You said that you are a lord, what proof are you going to use?" A middle-aged man in the front row questioned.
Hua Ruge pointed out with his finger: "Disrespectful to the master, kill!"
Tark moved, but there was someone who was faster than him, before he could react, a purple shadow flashed, and that person was sliced into two by some unknown force, with blood splashing out everywhere, causing the entire area to be dyed red.
At this moment, everyone in the stadium was scared but didn't dare to say anything. They could only swallow their saliva.
"If I say I am, then I am. In this land, no one has the right to question me." Hua Ruge's cold eyes swept across the field for a moment, then he said slowly: "Including all of my decrees, those who dare to question will be killed without mercy!"
Her last three words were filled with killing intent, and her voice echoed through the entire auction hall. It was like an ice pick piercing people's fantasies, sending chills down their spines.
In just a short thirty seconds, a thought had already rooted itself in their hearts. Lord was too fierce, they could not afford to offend him.
This was also Hua Ruge's goal. If she did not establish her might at the start, there would definitely be many obstacles in her management. She did not think of that.
After being silent for a while, a person who was originally sitting down stood up and said: "We will naturally follow all the Lord's orders, but our auction has Deputy Mayor's permission, so it is in accordance with the rules."
"Who are you?" Hua Ruge turned his head and asked. She squinted her eyes because no one could see through her thoughts.
"I am the owner of this auction." The man thought that Hua Ruge had bought it, and a smile appeared on his face.
After all, even though Hua Ruge was a Lord, she had only just arrived. As the saying goes, a strong dragon doesn't suppress a snake on the ground, she should at least give the Deputy Mayor some face.
"Oh." Hua Ruge nodded his head and asked: "Then who are these slaves here to auction?"
Immediately, another ten people stood up and said, "It's us."
Hua Ruge knew that these were just slave traders, and these people usually had a lot of slave captors under their hands. It would not be excessive to call them local serfs if they were used to capture slaves.
"Very good, very honest." Hua Ruge nodded in satisfaction.
These people looked at each other, not understanding why Hua Ruge did not greet them, but rather asked them questions.
Hua Ruge cleared his throat and said: "From now on, no one is allowed to capture or sell off other races within the Ancient Dragon City. Hand over all the people you have captured."
"What?" One of the slavers turned pale with fright.
What they relied on to survive was the slave trade. Now that Hua Ruge had issued such a decree, their statuses and positions would no longer be preserved.
"Even if you are the Lord, you can't break the rules." Upon hearing this, the slave traders below all became anxious and kept clamoring.
"This territory belongs to me. I will decide on the rules. As for your rules ?" Hua Ruge dragged out a long sound, then said word by word: "All of them are invalid!"
At this moment, everyone was shocked. Even if there was a Lord, they had never used such a powerful policy before.
"What bullsh * t Lord, we'll kill you. Let's see what else you can do?"
