Chapter 1083
Ji Hao promised Yi Di that he would give the arrows in three days . By now, he still had a quarter of an hour . Quietly, high-grade leaders from all large human clans had come near the headquarters with their people .
They didn’t approach the headquarters, neither did they make any noise . They were only silently watching .
The ones close to Ji Hao seemed to be worrying . Yi Di demanded a ridiculously large number of high-quality spell symbols arrow; what he did was no better than looting a burning house . Giving each of his warrior fifty-thousand high-quality spell symbol arrows? This was totally unreasonable . He disregarded the overall situation; he did this for nothing but making difficulty for Ji Hao on purpose .
With the power of the humankind, regular arrows made with whatever materials could be provided without limitations, but spell symbol arrows were different . Making spell symbol arrows not only required large quantities of top-grade materials, it also required large numbers of skillful craftsmen and a lot of time .
If Ji Hao failed to provide all those arrows he promised, the reputation of human leadership would be harmed severely . As a Marquis who made a false promise, no one would follow any order of his ever .
The ones who weren’t so close to Ji Hao were simply curious . They wondered if Ji Hao could truly provide so many spell symbol arrows . They assumed that Ji Hao was only bragging . How could spell symbols be made so easily? Not to mention making so many to fulfill Yi Di’s demand within three short days .
But what if Ji Hao did keep his promise?
"I truly want to see Yi Di’s face!" A few princes from large clans gathered together, whispering to each other . They were smiling with expectation; they seemed to even be gloating over the misery that Yi Di might suffer .
"If Earl Yao…Ah, if Marquis Yao can truly provide so many spell symbol arrows…" Abruptly, a prince said in a low voice, "Then, we need to reevaluate the powers of Marquis Yao and Minister Si Wen Ming, and…Emperor Shun… all of them!"
The group of princes raised their heads and looked at the headquarters with sparkling eyes .
If Ji Hao could truly provide those arrows in the astronomical number that Yi Di extorted from him, Ji Hao, or Si Wen Ming as his supporter, or even Emperor Shun, as Si Wen Ming’s supporter, one of them could be concluded to be possessing an unimaginably great power, that ordinary people might not even be able to imagine .
Such a great power could affect many essential factors; for example, who would become the next human emperor . Even the main growing trend of the entire humankind would be affected as well . As top-grade elites raised by super-grade human clans and families, these people must think about the possible influences that might be changed by this great power, in their own families and clans .
A small number of them saw Ji Hao as an enemy . These people stood in the darkest corners with long faces . They avoided those torches around the headquarters and hid in darkness, quietly waiting for Ji Hao to be embarrassed and humiliated .
"Emperor Shun can’t possibly find enough spell symbol arrows, not even by emptying all warehouses in Pu Ban City . " In the darkness, someone said with a cold and low voice, "Ji Hao bragged too hard . I’d like to see how will he wrap it up this time . "
"As the chief commander, he actually talked like that . Can this be counted as shaking the morale of the army?" said another cold voice with sarcasm, "This poor kid, he has been lucky these years . He built some small contributions, then he began having too high an opinion of himself . The morale of the army is shaken by him . I think Minister Hao Tao should behead him . "
"Ji Hao acts so recklessly . It’s pretty obvious that Minister Si Wen Ming has chosen the wrong person . Is it truly right for Minister Si Wen Ming to be in charge of the flood-control mission?" Someone in the darkness changed the topic . By talking about the bet made by Ji Hao and Yi Di, this person conveniently mentioned Si Wen Ming .
