This trip to the Eastern Regions was much quieter than previous ones.
Inside the hall at this moment.
Errou showed off the various delicacies on the ship, while Junlin moved over a chair and sat down, watching the crowd gathered there.
Among them, some knew his identity, and some did not.
Therefore, some people were extremely reserved, some were puzzled, and some were disdainful, feeling that Junlin was being somewhat pretentious.
Junlin's gaze swept over the crowd before him, taking in their every move.
Many people here already know that they are the supreme ruler, so the idea of pretending to be weak to take advantage of others won't work.
then!
Junlin's imposing aura was undisguised and burst forth!
Fifth-Rank Supreme!
The terrifying pressure stunned everyone in the hall, causing them to prostrate themselves on the ground, trembling with fear.
Of course, this was not their intention.
The main problem was that the pressure was unbearable. It was fortunate that Junlin stopped, otherwise the pressure alone would have been enough to crush these people.
Junlin picked up a cup of tea, took a small sip, and slowly said, "I'm sure you all know your current situation."
Upon hearing this, the hall remained silent.
It wasn't that they didn't want to speak, but the oppressive aura was so overwhelming that they could hardly breathe; even opening their mouths was difficult, let alone having the strength to speak.
Junlin slowly placed the teacup back on the table. "Not saying a word? Looks like you don't take me seriously."
"..."
Everyone cursed inwardly, "Damn it, at least give us a chance to speak!"
Seeing this, Errou came over and said, "Brother-in-law, your aura seems to be suppressing them so they can't speak."
"Ahem, be good, go pack up everything here. There won't be so much delicious food when we get to the Eastern Region." Jun Lin coughed and stuffed a piece of pastry into Er Rou's mouth to shut her up.
"Oh!"
Errou nodded repeatedly; how could she not have thought of that!
As Errou ran off to pack up the food from the ship, Junlin's gaze once again fell upon the silent crowd.
He said in a detached tone, "How about this? I'm not an unreasonable person. As long as you hand over all your resources to me, I'll spare your lives."
After he finished speaking, no one objected for a moment.
Junlin nodded in satisfaction and pointed to the young man at the front, saying, "In that case, let's start with you. Don't let me find out that you're holding back."
As they spoke, the pressure they had been putting on these people was also removed.
As the pressure dissipated, everyone was finally free to move around, but they were helpless in the face of King's Landing's demands.
The person before us is none other than the Supreme Being!
The boy pointed to by Junlin was quick-witted. Although this was an unexpected disaster, it could also be an opportunity.
If he helps this senior figure plunder all the resources of everyone on this ship, he should have a chance to gain the Supreme's favor.
Thinking this, the young man immediately stepped forward and took out all the valuable things he had on him, saying, "Supreme Senior, these are all the resources I have. Please take a look."
The boy's idea was wonderful; as long as he set an example, he would surely earn the praise of King's Landing.
However, the reality was that Junlin directly slapped the boy in the face, saying, "How dare you! Call me Heavenly Venerable!"
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, thank you for showing mercy."
The boy felt very wronged; the slap almost sent his head flying, and he still had to thank Junlin for showing mercy.
"They're all here?"
Junlin looked at the spatial ring the boy handed him and asked.
"They're all here."
The boy nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, you can get lost now."
Junlin accepted the spatial ring and waved for the person to leave.
The boy was very honest. After verification by the system, he handed over everything of value he had, except for his clothes.
The boy was stunned. This wasn't right; the script shouldn't have been written like this.
Shouldn't King's Landing find the task too troublesome and entrust him with the entire responsibility of collecting resources?
They would also warn him that if anything went wrong, he would lose his life!
He lived up to expectations and, through his efforts, successfully completed the mission, not only saving his life but also gaining the favor of King's Landing.
That's exactly how it was written in the novel he was reading!
Although confused, the boy quickly nodded and moved aside.
The second person to provide resources was a richly dressed young man.
However, this young master did not obediently provide the resources, but instead said, "This Celestial Venerable is my master, Chen Lang!"
? ? ?
Jun Lin was taken aback, then immediately slammed the Emperor's Banner onto the other's forehead, instantly taking his soul into it.
He then curled his lip and said, "What kind of trash dares to waste my time? Didn't I tell you that if I kill you, your resources will also be mine?"
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Junlin glanced at the boy who had first brought the resources not far away and shouted, "Hey, you fatso, throw this kid's body into the sea to feed the fish."
The chubby boy was taken aback when he heard this, but then he was overjoyed. Wasn't this his chance?
The vernacular novels are truly amazing!
Without the slightest hesitation, the chubby boy trotted over and dragged the corpse of the unknown young master outside.
"Next."
With the passing of the unknown young master, no one dared to flaunt their useless background anymore.
But there are still some who try to profit from the chaos.
Because every time Junlin (the ruler) makes the system check whether the other party is lying, he quickly encountered an dishonest person.
