When the moon started rising up above the sky of the Southeast Fortress, hundreds of shadows immediately started moving towards the wall of Southeast Fortress.
At this moment, Leo was with Ash, as both of them would also be going with ordinary Hybrids that are assigned to go through the Residential District. On the other hand, Chief Lago and the four leaders will be leading the 5 Divisions to go through the sewer system of East Sewer Management.
"Are you really sure that a tunnel will be around this place somewhere?" Ash asked Leo doubtfully. She just can't believe that a wall as formidable as the Southeast Fortress would actually have a secret tunnel hidden somewhere. Soldiers of the South Barracks would definitely do a patrol in this place every now and then, so even if there is indeed any tunnel, it will quickly be patched up, right?
"If you have lived in the Underground World, then you will definitely know that patrol soldiers can be paid. Though it wouldn't be cheap, it would still guarantee that the secret tunnel will not be removed." Leo explained, "The only problem is, to know where it is located and which gang is in control of the secret tunnel."
"Why are you so familiar with such a thing?" Ash curiously asked.
"The Mischievous Lion organization is an organization of assassins and people who work in the Underground World, so we are already extremely familiar with this kind of thing." Leo replied.
"Now, you see that seemingly ordinary slope over there?" Leo suddenly pointed at a seemingly ordinary slope near the wall.
"Yes!"
"Watch me, and you'll see that such a seemingly ordinary slope is actually a secret door leading inside the Southeast Fortress Residential District." Leo said before he began walking towards the slope.
The moment he arrived in front of the slope, Leo suddenly knocked on the dirt.
*Clang!
Contrary to Ash's expectations, the slope actually sounded like a metal door.
Suddenly, a hole slides open, and a person's eyes appeared.
"Who are you?" A solemn male's voice soon after sounded.
Hearing the question, Leo just simply showed an extra Mischievous Lion organization token he has, a silver token.
Aside from the gold token that acts as proof of his identity of being the disciple of the Queen Lion and one of the top members of the Mischievous Lion organization, he also never forgets to bring a silver token with him in order for him to hide his identity when visiting the Underground World. The people that have the golden token symbol are really easy to recognize due to the fact that there are only a few of them, specifically him, his two senior brothers, and the 24 Elders of Mischievous Lion organization.
Moreover, because of this current war, he obviously can't just casually show that gold token, even if showing the gold token will allow him access to unlimited resources in the Underground World, because that's the same as saying "The Mischievous Lion organization plans to take over the Southeast Fortress!".
"Mischievous Lion organization?" The male's voice wanted to confirm.
"Yes, and I know that it is 1 silver coin per person. I have the money here, so allow me and my men to pass through. Of course, your gang can also choose not to do so out of fear of offending the Commander of this Southeast Fortress or Fourth Prince Ethan, but I'll definitely report it to the 12 Zodiacs. Let's see whether your gang can still survive the next following nights!" Leo replied with a mischievous smile on his face.
The 12 Zodiacs is the group in the Mischievous Lion organization that mostly controls the Underground World. However, this group is separated into 4 different groups. First, the Smiling Lion that Leo leads, which includes Libra and Virgo. The Gemini Dagger that George leads, which includes Aquarius and Pisces. The Claw of Cancer that Charles leads, which includes Capricorn and Scorpio. And lastly, Aries Weapon that Ashley leads, which includes Taurus and Sagittarius.
Because the 12 Zodiacs controls most of the Underground World, anyone that dares to not follow the rules they have set would be reported to them and will be punished once proven. The punishment would completely depend on what rule they have broken.
Therefore, everyone part of the Underground World is scared of them.
"Chill bro, chill... I didn't mean to not allow you and your men to pass through, I just want to confirm because our boss told us specifically to allow any members of the Mischievous Lion organization to pass for free." The male's voice quickly softens after hearing Leo's threat.
"Oh, okay!" Leo replied, seemingly sounding nonchalant. It is definitely because of the ongoing war why the Underground World is helping the Mischievous Lion organization. Without the protection of the Mischievous Lion organization, the Underground World would definitely fall down, especially the moment the Mischievous Lion organization loses.
*Cling! *Clang! *Clong! *Whooosh!
Soon enough, a door opened inside the slope and a man with a muscular body appeared to welcome them.
"Welcome, people of the Mischievous Lion organization!" The muscular man said with a happy expression on his face.
"What gang do you belong to?" Leo asked.
"White Mouse." The muscular man didn't hesitate to reply. Obviously, he already knows what this person from the Mischievous Lion organization was going to do.
"Okay, I'll tell the 12 Zodiacs that your White Mouse Gang is great. By the way, we wouldn't stay long inside, so I hope to still see you guarding this door the moment we return back." Leo informed.
"Yes, sir! I'll definitely not fail you!" The muscular man replied in assurance.
"Okay, goodbye, then!" Leo waved his hand as he started walking inside the tunnel.
Ash didn't ask any questions as she simply motioned for the others to quickly follow after Leo. Deep in her mind though, she can't help feeling amazed at the influence of the Mischievous Lion organization on the Underground World. It was so obvious to see that anyone part of the Underground World would need to respect the Mischievous Lion organization.
Moments later, they finally arrived at the end of the tunnel. Right in front of them is a place with an obvious atmosphere of danger and dark.
Because there were 200 or so of them, Leo specifically ordered the Hybrids that they will exit in groups of ten while still walking in the tunnel in order to not attract some unnecessary attention towards them.
Although this was the Underground World, that still doesn't forbid the soldiers of Southeast Fortress from secretly hiding around this place.
Because the Underground World wasn't something that any territory could just as easily remove, hence the City Lord of cities or Commanders of fortresses solution to this problem is by stationing some spies to observe the place and report to them the people that walk around such a place, and such spies are the exact people that Leo was wary about.
Seeing 200 Hybrids walking in the same group would obviously attract everyone's attention, which includes those spies. Because of that, the 4 Barracks would then quickly be alerted of such movement, and hence they can no longer do their plan that easily and smoothly anymore.
Anyway, the Hybrids already knew what to do, so there is no need to worry about them anymore, and instead what Leo and Ash should be focusing on more right now is how to go to the Business District.
Ash had mentioned to him before that they can use the Hybrids sold in the Slave Market to add more to their men, too. However, because the Business District was on the opposite side of the Residential District, specifically they need to cross the West Barrack, hence they can't easily invade the place. Moreover, businesses weren't something that they can just walk in, steal from, and leave easily, so what they are going to do instead is to go and do an official visit to buy as many Hybrids as they can possibly buy.
Money is actually not a problem to Leo anymore at this moment, because teacher Homer's Storage Ring was with him. Inside the Storage Ring were also hundreds of thousands of gold coins. So with this money, he can easily buy a lot of slaves.
.....
"Welcome to Virgin Blood Slave House! I'm salesman #03, how may I be of service to this handsome sir and beautiful madam?" A fat salesman of the Virgin Blood Slave House quickly approached Leo and Ash the moment they walked inside.
Basing on the name, this fat salesman is obviously a slave of this so-called Virgin Blood Slave House.
Seeing the welcoming fat salesman, Leo quickly changed his temperament to a playboy as he put his hand around the waist of Ash and pulled her closer to him.
Ash who quickly noticed this wanted to push Leo away, but she was quick to understand that his action is just acting to blend in with the crowd, so she has no choice but to ride with him. Though, her face quickly turned burning hot the moment Leo pulled her. This was her first time being treated like this, especially by a guy, so it's only natural to feel bashful and the likes.
"Is it true that this place only sells virgins?" Leo asked with expectations evident in his eyes.
"Oh, so dear sir, is specifically looking for female virgins? Because if you are indeed so, then you came to the right place. In Virgin Blood Slave House, we have all sorts of female virgins, or even male virgins, if you are looking for a new experience, hehehehe... We have all sorts of different races to satisfy all sorts of desires too, Humans, Mermaid, Elves, both white-skinned and dark-skinned, or even someone the same race as this beautiful slave of yours sir!" The fat salesman enthusiastically introduced.
"Oh... But, do you have Hybrids, though?" Leo quickly stated what he wants.
"Hybrids? Sir, do you perhaps meant, do we have Garbage? Hahahaha!"
At the side, Ash's head can't help twitching out of anger after hearing the fat salesman calling the Hybrids as garbage. She really wants to charge at him and rip him to into two, but fortunately, Leo pinches her waist to stop her from doing so, though the action also made her face even hotter.
"Oh, so they're called Garbage? Then that's even more perfect! I'm looking for female Hybrid virgins to help satisfy the fetish of my beloved woman..." Leo turned to look at Ash as he pulled her face close to his before quickly turning to look at the fat slave salesman, "You understand what I meant, right?"
Because of Ash's obvious show of anger, he can only mask it by saying she hated the Hybrids, in case of causing some misunderstanding.
"Oh, so madam is an M, hahaha!" The fat salesman quickly understood, "Okay, sir, please follow closely as I will take you to that section of our Virgin Blood Slave House!"
The fat slave salesman clasped his hand before he started leading Leo and Ash to the isle of the Hybrids.
