Chapter 268
The castle of raging fire had never been in such a mess before . All the "slaves" were called together in a hurry and many orders were passed down from the top non-stop .
"How's the situation?" Chu Yunsheng stopped cultivation and asked Cao Zhengyi who rushed back in a hurry .
"Grandpa I and nig . . . I mean . . . the black man Edgar have found one, the castellan said that there was one already locked up behind the Palace . So we only got one left, but looking at this situation, we Should be able to find the last one soon . "Cao Zhengyi said .
"There is one behind the palace?" Chu Yunsheng was surprised .
"Yeah, the three people you are looking for, one of them was locked up a few days ago, it is said that the fire messenger issued the order personally, that's why you probably do not know it . " Cao Zhengyi also didn't know why Chu Yunsheng didn't know it . The only one reasonable explanation he had was that Chu Yunsheng just arrived the castle yesterday, so he probably didn't know .
Chu Yunsheng nodded his head, no wonder why Lei Ming's brother Luo Hengshen had a strange reaction when he handed the photo to them .
:” The fire messenger is extremely busy, there are a lot other important things he needs to remember, so probably he forgot about this one . When you found them all, locked all of them at the same place . I'll check it later . “ Chu Yunsheng paused for a second and said:” Lao Cao, how long have you been staying in the castle?”
:” I was already here when they started building this castle . It has been sometimes now . ” Cao Zhengyi didn't know why Chu Yunsheng would ask him this . He looked at Tao Chan, but Tao Chan didn't give her any signal . So he replied honestly .
:” Hmm… how many men do you have now?” Chu Yunsheng asked casually .
:” Are you asking about the Skywalkers or the slaves?” Cao Zhengyi replied carefully, he felt that Chu Yunsheng was planning for something .
:”Tell me the number for both of them . ” Chu Yunsheng replied . If he wanted to eliminate all Lei Ming three brothers’ forces, he needed other people to help him . Otherwise once they died the entire castle would fell into chaos . He still needed the castle to suppress the castle of Snowstorm . So he couldn't afford to lose too many useful men here .
:”I'm just a low-ranking slaveholder, above me there were high-ranking slaveholders and Generals . I have 20 Skywalkers, 200-ish slaves . ” Cao Zhengyi said nervously . He was lying, because he was scared that Chu Yunsheng was going to take over the control of his force .
:”Then, how many low-ranking slaveholders are there in the castle? How many high-ranking slaveholders?* Chu Yunsheng asked .
:” Probably 20 low-ranking slaveholders, and 7 high-ranking slaveholders . There are around 10,000 people in the castle, same as the castle of Snowstorm . ” Cao Zhengyi replied .
‘10,000? 20 low-ranking slaveholders that mean that there are at least 400 Skywalkers . ' Chu Yunsheng thought for a second and asked:”how many men do high ranking slaveholders have?”
:”At least 50 Skywalkers and 500 slaves . ” Cao Zhengyi responded readily .
" Hmm . . . 700 Skywalkers, that's quite a lot . The ratios of the Skywalkers to the ordinary people is almost 1 to 14!’ Chu Yunsheng didn't expect that there would be so many Skywalkers here .
Cao Zhengyi probably knew what Chu Yunsheng was thinking so he explained:” a lot of ordinary people died on the road while escaping from monsters’ attack . Because Skywalkers have a higher chance of survival . that's why two numbers are very close . ”
:” make sense . ” originally Chu Yunsheng thought that the divine realm might have the ability to force the original humans to awaken . But apparently, it was not that . He then turned around said to Tao Chan:” you can leave first, I need to discuss something important with the slaveholder Cao . ”
After she left, Cao Zhengyi closed the door and waited nervously on the side .
“Lao Cao, ask your men to stop doing whatever they are doing at the moment and gather them all together this afternoon . I have an important task for them tonight . Chu Yunsheng thought for a second and said . He didn't want to let Cao Zhengyi know what task it was now, because he was worried that Cao Zhengyi would go tell Lei Ming three brothers .
