Chapter 23 Looting
Jack took a thousand Unsullied to join Mabis, and the remaining [-] Unsullied and [-] Marine Guards began to snatch the carriages in the city.

As time passed, the turmoil lasted for three days, and it was almost time when Xaro's five thousand slave soldiers began to move out.

Wearing leather armor and holding long spears, they were as well-equipped as Qarth's standing army, and far superior to the slave soldiers under other merchants.

These are Xaro's preparations for the final annihilation of the standing army of the royal family of Qarth.

Just as Xaro was eradicating dissidents, the standing army of the royal family of Qarth also took action. They declared that the Thirteen Giants had launched a rebellion and started a war.

The two sides fought fiercely in the center of Qarth City, but the slave soldiers in Xaro's hands had an advantage in numbers, and many sloppy businessmen also commanded their slave soldiers to participate in the battle against the royal army.

Seeing the balance of victory tipped in his favor, Xaro saw a look of greed on his fat face, and Qarth would soon be his.

"Hissing——" the young dragon's hissing sound sounded, and Kerakxiu streaked across the sky, and scarlet dragon flames spewed out.

Fires a few slave soldiers and returns quickly, its main purpose is to boost morale, not fight.

A look of surprise appeared on Mebis's face. Jack finally launched an attack. If he didn't come, his army would be defeated.

In ancient times, once the loss rate of the army reached more than [-]%, there was a risk of rout. The more elite the army, the lower the probability of rout, and they could even fight until the last soldier.

But obviously the standing army under Mebis is not among the elite. Jack saw the right moment, and when the standing army of Qarth was about to be defeated, he released Corax to boost morale, and at the same time let his Unsullied men flank Xaro's army.

The standing army of Qarth succeeded in suspending his breath. With the joining of the Unsullied, Xaro's slave army was quickly defeated. They were slaves in the first place, so naturally no one would stay and fight to the death.

Seeing this scene, Xaro's eyes were about to burst. He had prepared for this moment for too long, but he didn't expect to fall short at the critical moment.

"Stop, don't run away, you lowly slaves, go back and fight!"

But none of the slaves paid any attention to Xaro, and the fear of death had overcome the fear of the master.

Seeing that the general situation was over, Xaro could only run away with the flow of people, suppressing the unwillingness in his heart, his life was the most important thing, after all, as long as he was alive, he would have a chance to regain his strength and make a comeback.

Jack took the bow and arrow handed over by his subordinates, and the cold arrow aimed at Xaro's fat waist.

With the release of his right hand, the arrow made a sharp sound of piercing through the air, and directly pierced Xaro's ass.

Annoyed expression appeared on Jack's face, "Damn it, this bow and arrow is really hard to practice, I'm obviously aiming at the waist."

"Captain, your progress has been very fast. I believe you will be a perfect archer in the future."

"Thank you for your compliment." Jack returned the bow and arrow to his subordinates, dragged the tsunami and walked step by step towards Xaro who was crying in pain on the ground.

The sound of the sword slapping on the stone floor made Xaro too frightened to turn his head back, so he could only crawl forward desperately.

"Please, please, don't kill me, please, please." Xaro kept begging.

At this moment, an escaped slave soldier stepped on Xaro's hand. The severe pain made Xaro stop crawling, and instead wriggled and screamed in place.

Soon Jack came in front of Xaro. He pinched Xaro's face and looked at Mebis who was commanding the encirclement and suppression of slave soldiers.

"Look at him, Prince Qarth personally commanded the battle, let his soldiers fight in blood, and you begged my forgiveness like a poor wretch, that's the difference."

"However, you all made a serious mistake. You don't have the force and command mind. Don't go to the battlefield. He is obviously overexcited, so he will die just like you!"

As soon as Jack finished speaking, a slave who had been bribed a long time ago pierced Mebis' chest with an arrow.

Mebis opened his eyes wide, looking at the sharp arrow piercing through his chest in disbelief, and all the achievements that had not been realized were instantly reduced to smoke.

Xaro stared at Jack with wide eyes. This man was not like a businessman at all, but more like a conspirator who counted everyone on the chessboard.

The tsunami pierced Xaro's head, and Jack immediately gathered the Unsullied to escape from the battle, and then led them straight to the headquarters of the Thirteen Giants Chamber of Commerce.

As long as he saw the delivery vehicle along the way, he would grab it directly. Jack had been waiting for this day for a long time, and it was really tiring to pretend to be a serious and honest businessman.

At this time, another 500 people had occupied the warehouse of the Thirteen Giants, beheading a large number of slaves and free people who were trying to take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune.

When Sorge saw Jack coming, he immediately reported the situation. As one of the few people who could read and count in Triton, he was lucky to become the leader of Triton.

"My lord, there is not much cash in the warehouse of the Thirteen Giants, but there are many valuable treasures and goods."

"Move the most valuable things first. We don't want the goods. If there is no channel for those things, it will be a waste of time to digest them."

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, he immediately ordered the most valuable rare treasures to be moved first, followed by gems and gold.

With the death of Mebis, the royal family of Qarth launched a bloody struggle for the throne of the prince.

The royal family of Qarth is equivalent to the House of Representatives, and the position of the prince is the chairman of the council. Now that the chamber of commerce in Qarth has been reshuffled, it is not impossible for the later councilors to restore the monarchy and become the real king of Qarth.

The whole of Qarth fell into turmoil. The originally prosperous city was suddenly flooded with burning, killing, looting, and flames and screams everywhere.

Under the escort of the Unsullied, a large amount of wealth was loaded onto the supply ship of Atlantis.

The chaos lasted for a day and a night. The next day Jack woke up from the warehouse. He didn't return to the Sea Emperor last night, and he has been sitting in the warehouse to command.

"My lord, when you wake up, it will be finished soon. It is estimated that there are 30 gold coins. It is a pity that we cannot carry these goods, otherwise the harvest will be multiplied several times."

Sorge's tone was full of regret. Most of the warehouses of the Thirteen Giants were full of unprocessed spices and alcohol.

So it is quite a lot to be able to search for 30 yuan of wealth. After all, they are businessmen, and most of their assets are goods.

At this time, the Temple of Immortality suddenly ignited a fire, and Jack, who saw this scene, knew that Daenerys had found her dragon son.

As a child of luck, this small tribulation is nothing to Dani.

Withdrawing his thoughts, as the last box of treasures was loaded onto the carriage, Jack followed the large force back to the Neptune.

This trip was very rewarding. No wonder war and looting are the shortcuts to making money. This trip earned 30 gold coins.

Jack, who returned to the Neptune, embarked on the journey back to Astapor, kidnapped some sailors along the way, and helped him drive away the 50 large ships on the pier.

The number of ships in Atlantis has reached 170, but counting the kidnapped sailors, there are less than 2000 people, and there are only ten people on a ship on average.

So Jack is going to buy another batch of Unsullied, along with some ship slaves. Healthy ship slaves can become qualified sailors with a little training.

As for what will happen to Qarth next time, it's none of his business. I just hope that when he comes to collect the "protection fee" next time, Qarth will still be prosperous.
