The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

People flee hurriedly as if they are running for their lives. The Clex City which was bustling with crowds a day ago, was now nearly empty.

It looked dreary and desolate.

People could be seen rushing out of the city with a pale expression. The notice surely had an effect however there were still many people who couldn't accept this.

"Keep track of these people as who knows how many of these are sinister people who may cause chaos thereafter, "Riya ordered forces to observe the escaped person.

"Don't let the bandits run, if they surrender keep them under close observation."Christina relayed orders to her troops who had circled the whole Clex City.

Various checkpoints had been established and the people rushing out had to pass through these checkpoints and they had to pass through safety checks.

The Public Safety Department established by Alex has collected vast information about the criminals hidden in Clex City and they are in charge of filtering them.

It would be good if they had a database system and a quick scan alas this world is too ancient for that.

"I am sure some criminals disguising themselves would pass through the safety check," Christina murmured.

"It doesn't matter, Riya's shadow forces would keep a check on them. The entire region is under their radar and if things get worse, we can just order Kassel to make a move."Alex spoke with a smile while caressing Riya and Christina's hair.

"Can you stop playing with our hair?"Christina retorted.

"Be serious," Riya spoke with a shy expression.

"Seriously! Haa..." Alex scoffed at them and stared at Clex City.

"You two are the ones who stopped me from playing."

A reinforced wall had been constructed in the inner part of the City and the forces of Black Markets had been deployed there.

If Alex made a move, he would wipe out everything in one strike but if he did this, his wife would pinch him to death.

"Learn some restraint. You are an Emperor now. Have some manners? You can't just run wild as you wish. You need to maintain some decency."

Alex's lips twitched hearing Christina complain.

His head started to hurt hearing the same words again.

Every time he did something, someone would appear out of nowhere to restrain him and start preaching to him.

'Damn, which bastard made me Emperor. I will kill that guy.'

"That person is already dead. So stop threatening a dead guy and let him rest in peace."

Riya and Christina shouted at the same time startling Alex's expression.

"Damn! Since when can you read my expression?"

"It was too obvious."Riya chuckled.

"Okay, enough of this. Begin the attack. Let's take down those bastards."

.........

Six loud thunderous twangs ran out simultaneously as a murderous razor-sharp bolt whooshed past Aeon causing a few cries of pain to ring out nearby.

The soldier's mind was thrown into turmoil. Aeon, who was at the forefront of Charging, took a moment to assess the situation.

Using the dim moonlight, he saw a large stone gap and in between those stone gaps their wide-scale ballistic harpoons were attacking with a mass of condensed energy.

The black market had a vast amount of resources and a large number of artifacts and gadgets at their disposal so it wasn't easy to get them.

The whole inner area was covered with a huge barrier protecting them against the ferocious attacks of their troops.

20 metres away was a stone gap and 3 metres wide beyond which soldiers were crouching behind sandbags and rocks. Further away there were countless fire forces gathered together.

Beyond the gap, Aeon saw six ballistic projectiles getting charged with mana cores operated by a few nervous people. He also saw bow-wielding enemy soldiers appearing one after another with some orders being shouted by the soldiers.

Seeing the scene, Aeon frowned.

"Something is wrong here. Since when did the Black Market have this trained militia? All the soldiers are coordinating quite well. These people are highly specialised like proper soldiers. Black Markets should have used guards and mercenaries to fight so where did this bunch of people come from?"

Aeon felt that he couldn't delay any longer.

"This barrier is a tough nut to crack, however.."A playful smile spread across his lips.

He waves his hand and relays the orders.

The soldiers attacking the barrier retreated following Aeon's order which surprised the enemies.

Ken, who was overseeing the whole situation along with a mysteriously dark figure, frowned seeing the sudden development.

"Are they retreating?"Ken asked with confusion. After all, at the end of the day, he was just a merchant and didn't have any combat expertise.

"Hmm! What can they do? This barrier can take on the attack of peak Legendary rank and the ballistas can kill a Transcendent rank with a snap. Under absolute defence and fierce attack, what can they do?"

"What if they send Mythic ranks?"Ken asked in a worried tone.

"Mythic rankers are quite busy nowadays and we also have three Mythic rankers hidden here. We just need to stall them until our secret passage is ready. We will soon burn down everything and run away."The dark-robed figure spoke and then turned towards Ken.

"Don't forget your promise," Ken spoke coldly.

"Don't worry, if we get out of here safely, every artifact and good-quality weapon we have will belong to you. Moreover, we will also provide you with monetary support in exchange for permitting you to operate as an independent organisation."

As the anonymous figure assured him, a guard came hurriedly.

"President, we have trouble."

"What happened?"Ken's expression turned ugly.

"The first defence layer is breached."

"How?"

"The other side had a miner who dug a tunnel leading to the back, in a few seconds and a few troops emerging out ran rampage and destroyed the pillars that kept the barrier intact."

Hearing this, for some reason, Ken started to have a bad premonition in his heart.
