As expected, the 10 swords all pierced into Miyata's chest at the next moment.
Mages were a fragile profession to begin with. Being unable to interrupt the enemy's attack at close range had already foreshadowed Miyata's ending.
"Ah, bastard."
Hu Tai had just repelled the royal swordsmen when he saw Miyata lying in a pool of blood. He knew that his life was going to end here today.
"Hu Tai, I'll give you one last chance in this situation. Surrender. Otherwise, you can accompany this mage to the afterlife."
"I …"
Hu Tai originally wanted to say some tough words, but when the words reached his mouth, he didn't say anything.
There were only a few people left in his team who were still alive. The outcome of this battle was already decided.
"I know the rules of the Demons. From the moment you left Stone City, your lives no longer belong to you. You should know very well that if you escape to other cities and are pursued by your superiors, you'll only end up dead."
"But it's different here with me. You still have value. I can guarantee that as long as you're obedient, I'll still have the ability to feed another mouth."
Xu Tianyu's words almost broke Hu Tai's bottom line.
"Sigh …"
Hu Tai sighed helplessly and raised his hands slowly.
"I hope that your words will count." Hu Tai looked at Xu Tianyu with incomparable seriousness as he said each word clearly.
"Of course, I won't allow myself to make mistakes based on my reputation. The premise is that you have to speak the truth."
Xu Tianyu was delighted to see that Hu Tai had finally surrendered.
Hu Tai and the others were just small fries. His real enemy was the Dark Mainland. His understanding of the Dark Mainland was only the tip of the iceberg.
Thus, if they could obtain as much information as possible from Hu Tai, it would definitely be of great help to their future operations.
Know yourself and your enemy and you'll never be defeated.
A few hours later, Hu Tai changed into a new set of clothes and wolfed down his food at the dining table.
God knew how hungry he was after hiding for seven days.
Xu Tianyu sat opposite him, savoring the delicious food and patiently waiting for him to finish his meal.
Half an hour later, the dishes on the table were all gone. Only then did Hu Tai stop what he was doing.
"Ah, I haven't eaten so much in a long time."
Finally, Hu Tai emptied the pot of wine and laid down on the chair with a satisfied expression.
"My life here is not bad. If you like, you can eat these things every day in the future."
Xu Tianyu slowly raised his cup and slowly tasted it.
"Haha, that's right. I, Hu Tai, have been defeated by you. However, Xu Tianyu, I want to tell you that I'm just a small character in the Dark Mainland. There are more than a million small City Lords like me in the Dark Mainland. Your actions this time have already provoked the wrath of the Demonic Dwellers. The horror that you will face is not something you can imagine."
Hu Tai snapped.
"I don't think Mr. Hu Tai needs to worry about this. Compared to these things that have yet to come, I'm more interested in what happened in the Dark Mainland in the past. I wonder if Mr. Hu Tai can enlighten me."
Seeing Xu Tianyu's smiling eyes, Hu Tai didn't say anything else.
"What do you want to know?" Hu Tai regained his composure and asked slowly.
"Firstly, I want to know about the cities near Stone City and the places where the Demonic Dwellers might be buried. I wonder if Mr. Hu Tai can point them out on the map for me."
