Eternal Thief Chapter 669 You Were So Schemy!

Ace's new disguise's na was Adolph, and he was part of the guard force of this servant mountain which was usually called Servant Mountain City.

As the na suggests, the Servant Mountain City was a specific city for only Servant Rank mbers of the Sun and Moon Sword Union.

The Mortal Domain followed a special law of the Union, and people were divided into four ranks. The lowest rank was Union Servant, then Union Citizen, Union Officer, and Finally, Official Union mber.

The people of the servant rank wore white color clothes, and they did odd jobs in Mortal Domains issued by citizens and earned Union rits by doing those jobs.

The Union rits were the currency of the Union, and they can be used in various ways. One of the most common and important uses of Union rits was it could evaluate soone's status rank in the Union.

A Union Servant can beco a Union Citizen as long as he has enough rits.

However, it was easier said than done since there were seldom jobs for the servants and since those union citizens would do their own tasks instead of paying a servant Union rits from their own pockets.

That's why the Servant Mountain City was mostly filled, and those servants were workless. Moreover, they had to hunt for food in the forest at the back of the mountain, which was filled with low-level demonic beasts, and these mortals put their lives on the line just to hunt one.

However, Ace had nothing to do with any of it as he was planning to head toward the 'Official Mountain City,' which was the city furthest away from the servant mountain and closest to the Sun and Moon Ascension Gates.

The Official Mountain City was also the residential area of the Official Union mber. As for why this was Ace's destination, it was because the Official Union mbers were eligible to beco 'immortals,' aning they were given permission to cultivate!

Not only that, but they even had the chance to ascend the Ascension Stairways behind the Sun and Moon Ascension Gates and join the holy land of the Union in the clouds.

At least, this was what Adolph and every person living in the mortal domain thought.

But Ace knew it was nothing but a mirage put by the cultivators of the union to control these mortals and make them take care of the mountains for them. Or they were simply doing it to nurture true experts through hardship.

Whichever the case was, Ace wasn't least interested, and he only wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible, and the only way was to infiltrate the actual core area of the union and then find a way outside this place.

Because according to Adolph's mories, the entire mortal domain was surrounded by the crystal lake, and behind that crystal lake was nothingness that Ace saw himself.

These people believed the world was only limited to the mortal domain, and if they wanted to go future going toward the clouds was the only way.

They were all forbidden to approach the crystal lake, and it was punished by hundred thorny whips.

That's why the man on the flying sword didn't bother to do anything to Ace, as he knew he wouldn't be able to live with this punishnt, and it will also refresh the union's control over their lives. They will think a hundred tis over before breaking any rules.

'Aren't they just playing Heaven?' Ace couldn't but snickered in disdain as, for so reason, he felt urged to teach them all a lesson just thinking about it.

Nevertheless, he didn't go ahead of himself. The fate map was still dyed in red, which ans this entire place was built over a formation like the imperial domain.

He needed to be absolutely careful not to draw attention to himself while doing his best to get out of there.

'They won't pay attention to one little ant, right? I can understand about that crystal lake, but keeping an eye over every living being present in the mortal domain? I don't believe it. But just in case, I need to experint.' He thought grimly before he appeared in the main building from the prison cells.

The light-beard guard, his na was Douglas, appeared again as he was still fuming about what happened just a few minutes ago. He quickly asked coldly, seeing Adolph walking over, "Do you take care of it?"

Adolph smiled coldly, "I locked him in the cell with those nasty insects. He'll die anyway when the punishnt starts. This will be our little payback."

Douglas's eyes instantly lit up, and he laughed coldly, "Very good. That bastard should die the cruelest way possible. How dare he almost drag us down with him."

Adolph suddenly ca closed and gravely said in a whispering voice, "Brother Douglas, although that immortal disdained dealing with us. What about the mountain lord? That fellow is always petty, and he won't let us off after he gets disciplined by the immortal. He will seek us and make our lives miserable. He might even use his authority to call a trial against us!"

Douglas's gloating expression instantly wrapped, turning pale. He quickly said, "Then what should we do?"

Adolph seed to think about sothing before he gravely said, "How about we go back to the mountain forest and volunteer to join the hunting squad? As long as he wasn't able to find us, how could he take revenge on us?

"Then all he can do is vent on that little shit, and I'm pretty sure he won't even know our faces. As long as we stay low in the hunting squad, we'll be able to escape this calamity!"

Douglas looked at Adolph speechlessly as he couldn't help but click his tongue, "Brother Adolph, I never thought you were so Schemy!"

Adolph's lips curled up slightly, "It's nothing. Then are you with ?"

Douglas said matter-of-factly, "Of course, let's quickly resign from our posts and report back to the mountain. Even that immortal won't be able to find any fault with us anymore!"

With that, the two of them quickly left, but unbeknownst to Douglas, he was going to beco Ace's experint subject!
