"If you don't want to die, come over here. Surrender and be willing to sign a contract to become my slave. Otherwise, all of you will die here!"
Seeing that the time was right, Chen Mo spoke coldly.
"Run!
Escape with me! "
However, Black Flag shouted angrily at this moment.
As the leader of a pirate group, he had some skills. Nobody knew what skill he used, but his whole body turned red, and his speed suddenly increased. In an instant, he rushed out of the crowd, and even the puppets outside couldn't stop him.
After breaking out of the encirclement, Black Flag charged toward the territory's gate without any regard for his life.
As long as he could get out of the gate and return to the sea, he would be safe.
In the sea, no one could do anything to him!
Although Black Flag charged out, the other members of the Black Flag Pirates were not as capable as Black Flag.
Chen Mo watched as Black Flag charged out of the encirclement. Whether it was him, Black Phoenix in the sky, or even Big Fat and the puppets, if they really wanted to stop Black Flag, they could easily do so.
However, Chen Mo did not stop Black Flag. Instead, he deliberately let him go.
On the other hand, the other members of the Black Flag Pirates wanted to follow Black Flag out. However, they were fiercely intercepted and could not escape at all.
"Hmph!
Look, your leader Black Flag is a coward. He has already abandoned all of you and escaped by himself. Are you still not willing to surrender? Are you willing to die for him? "
Chen Mo coldly shouted at the group of Black Flag Pirates after the Black Flag Pirates had escaped some distance away and couldn't hear anything from this side.
"Leader Black Flag is not that kind of person!"
Some pirates angrily shouted back.
"He's not?
Open your dog eyes and take a good look at your leader. He did not abandon all of you! "
Chen Mo relaxed his attacks, giving the members of the Black Flag Pirates time to think.
Seeing Black Flag running toward the territory's gate without turning back, the group of pirates who were still speaking up for Black Flag were speechless.
"Damn it, I don't want to die yet. I surrender!"
Seeing that Black Flag had abandoned them in exchange for his own life, some of the pirates immediately gave up. They threw down their weapons and walked toward Chen Mo.
Hehe, not bad!
As expected of NPCs, they were really easy to trick!
When Chen Mo saw that his evil plan had succeeded, he couldn't help but chuckle.
With a pirate leader like Black Flag around, these people would have someone to rely on. As long as Black Flag didn't surrender, it would be very difficult for them to surrender.
Seeing that Hei Qi wanted to escape, Chen Mo immediately released Hei Qi. He also created a scene where Hei Qi abandoned them and had them block the attacks while he escaped.
In truth, it wasn't that Blackflag didn't want to save them. Rather, even if he turned around, he wouldn't be able to save them.
Blackflag naturally wouldn't do something like sacrificing himself to save his comrade. If he were to escape, he would still be able to find reinforcements to save his comrade.
If he was also subdued, then he would have no chance at all.
Unfortunately, Chen Mo's words incited the members of the Blackflag Pirates, whose lives were threatened, to think of this possibility.
With the first person surrendering, there was naturally a second.
One pirate after another surrendered. When the pirates who were still resisting saw the number of their companions decreasing, they could only give up and dejectedly walk to Chen Mo's side.
Chen Mo chuckled as he signed a slave contract with these pirates. There was no equality at all.
Just after arriving at the Sacred Sea Domain, Chen Mo had suddenly gained over a hundred slaves. Every one of them was Level 60. Seeing this, Chen Mo was overjoyed.
As for Black Flag, who was trying to escape … … Since he had already boarded Katarina, how could he possibly escape?
Chen Mo had long since ordered Thunder Beast to secretly release the ships docked at the edge of the territory. If Black Flag wished to board the ships, he would have no choice but to jump into the sea.
Meanwhile, in the sea, there was the overlord of the sea, Thunder Beast.
The moment Thunder Beast unleashed its lightning, Black Flag was immediately electrocuted to the point that he couldn't move. Thunder Beast then easily captured him.
Chen Mo called the Blackflag Pirates, who had signed a slave contract, to one side of the territory to await further orders. Only then did Chen Mo release Black Flag with a smile.
"How about it, Black Flag? Do you choose death, or do you choose to become my slave?
Become my slave. As long as you sign a slave contract with me for three years, during these three years, as long as you follow my orders, you will regain your freedom.
If you are unwilling, I will have no choice but to kill you.
To be honest, all of your subordinates have agreed and signed a slave contract with me. It doesn't matter if you are one more or one less.
Be straightforward. If you don't agree, I will kill you immediately. Don't waste my time, "Chen Mo said leisurely to Black Flag.
Forcing so many people to sign a slave contract was not an easy task. This was especially true for some people. If they were forced to become slaves for all eternity, they might rather choose death.
If someone were to take the lead and choose death, in the end, less than one-third of the people would choose to sign a slave contract. Hence, Chen Mo decided to give them hope. The slave contract they signed would only last for three years. Once three years passed, they would regain their freedom.
To Chen Mo, three years was definitely more than enough time. At that time, it was very likely that he would no longer be in the game. Meanwhile, even if he was in the game, after three years, it would no longer be important whether or not he had these Level 60 pirate slaves.
In reality, Chen Mo felt that one year was more than enough. Signing a slave contract for three years was just a precaution.
Meanwhile, after signing a slave contract for only three years, the members of the Blackflag Pirates breathed a sigh of relief. All of them signed a slave contract with Chen Mo, becoming Chen Mo's slaves.
As for Black Flag, the pirate leader, Chen Mo said that it was the same whether he lived or died. However, in reality, Chen Mo did not wish to kill Black Flag.
The reason why he wanted the Blackflag Pirates was not purely because he wanted slaves.
What Black Flag said was correct. Currently, Katrina needed to be kept a secret. He could not let others know of the existence of Katrina's territory.
With just Chen Mo and his pirate lackeys, Chen Mo felt that the risk was still too great. He needed the help of Black Flag, a pirate leader who was familiar with the surroundings.
Moreover, if he wanted to manage a group of pirate slaves, Black Flag would be the best helper.
On the Holy Continent, pirates seemed to be a special existence. After learning that there were so many pirates in the Holy Sea, and that the largest pirate group still had several thousand members, Chen Mo felt that secretly developing a pirate group in the Holy Sea was not a bad idea.
However, as an outsider, if he wanted to establish a pirate group, he would definitely encounter hostility. It would be extremely difficult for him to develop a pirate group.
After all, if he were targeted by those pirate groups, the pirate group he had just established would be destroyed in a matter of minutes.
Moreover, he was an adventurer. It would be extremely difficult for him to recruit NPCs to establish a pirate group.
However, with Black Flag around, things would be different.
Black Flag was one of the pirate leaders in the Holy Sea. If the pirate group he led grew stronger, it would not be strange. It would also attract a lot of attention.
By controlling Black Flag, he would be able to secretly develop a pirate group that belonged to him.
However, Black Flag did not know what Chen Mo was thinking. He only felt that Chen Mo's words were correct.
His pirate lackeys had all signed a slave contract with Chen Mo. He was the only one left. Even if he did not sign the slave contract, he would not make a difference.
"Is it really only a three-year contract?
Once the time is up, you will let us go? "
Black Flag did not wish to die. Seeing that Chen Mo's slave contract did not seem unacceptable, he gritted his teeth and asked.
"Of course. The strength of your small pirate group is only so-so. I can annihilate all of you by myself. How valuable do you think you are to become my slave for life?"
Chen Mo said calmly, causing Black Flag to feel ashamed upon hearing his words.
It seemed that Shi Feng wanted them to become his slaves in order to keep it a secret. Shi Feng did not care about their strength at all.
However, when he thought about it, it made sense. This fellow had a terrifying Slime on the ground and an even more terrifying Dark Phoenix in the sky. There was also a large group of powerful puppets in the surroundings. Moreover, there was a sea monster in the sea that Black Flag had never seen before that could use lightning-attributed attacks.
Thinking about it carefully, their Black Flag Pirate Group did not seem to be able to do much under Shi Feng.
"Alright, I'll sign the contract. I hope you will keep your promise."
Black Flag was intimidated by Chen Mo as he said dejectedly.
Hehe, done!
Seeing this, Chen Mo was inwardly pleased.
It was definitely not an easy task to get a group of NPCs to sign a slave contract. It might be easier for a single person. However, if it was a group of NPCs, if one of them resisted, the group might not sign the contract.
After signing a three-year slave contract with Black Flag, Chen Mo was in an extremely good mood.
"Black Flag, are there many pirates nearby?"
Following which, Chen Mo started asking Black Flag about the situation in the sea nearby.
Katrin's matter could not be made public. He had to secretly have Katrin approach a shore. Then, he had to think of a way to disguise Katrin as a seaside city.
If he wanted to do this, he would have to rely on Black Flag's information.
"Not many.
The sea we are in is a relatively remote part of the Holy Sea. Very few ships come and go. Naturally, there are also not many pirates. Most pirates are active in the sea areas where ships come and go.
Our Black Flag Pirate Group is only a small pirate group. We can only operate in these small sea areas, "Black Flag answered honestly.
"Is that so … Then, how much do you know about the recent migration of adventurers to the Holy Continent?" Chen Mo did not immediately state his goal. Instead, he changed the topic and asked about another matter.
"I know a little. However, I don't know as much as the people on the ground. According to what I know, the migrating outsiders and adventurers are all very weak. It is said that they are easy to bully. Hence, our Black Flag Pirate Group dared to come here and find trouble with you, Master."
"Weak?
With your strength, what standard are you considered in the Holy Continent? "Chen Mo frowned when he heard Black Flag's words.
"We can't be considered ordinary civilians. We are considered the lowest standard …" Black Flag answered, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Their Black Flag Pirate Group could only bully some small fleets. As for fleets that were slightly stronger, even if the Black Flag Pirate Group sailed past them, the Black Flag Pirate Group would not dare to act recklessly.
The lowest standard. In other words, the level of the NPCs on the Holy Continent was at least Level 60?
If that was the case, the NPCs on the Holy Continent might truly be difficult to deal with.
Chen Mo rubbed his chin.
…
Third …
