Chapter 294: One week

Guy:" Otherwise we are doomed to return to being slaves. That is why first we need to set up the camp and divide our jobs."

Like this, he became the leader, and gave duties to each and everyone in the camp, while he and a few clearly better fed people, were having fun in the leader's tent.

He was thinking of becoming the head of this camp and becoming the dictator he had always admired to be. What did he have less than those white ghosts?

But he never thought that he was overestimating their power, and importance all this time. Until a big caravan of cars appeared on the horizon before dawn.

The slaves that had just gotten their freedom in less than a day, tried to fight back and survive, using everything in their hands.

But everything was for nothing apparently because, in less than an hour, the whole camp changed hands once again.

The slaves that just got their freedom were once again turned into slaves. Maybe now they regretted not going with the group earlier, but none of them had thought this would happen.

If they had, perhaps they would have made a different decision, but now was too late. Not to mention that the new leader of the camp, had run away the moment he felt danger.

Far away from the camp though, a caravan of 8 cars stopped, at the side of some well-hidden place. It was the Shadows caravan.

They had been traveling with stops all day today, they would stop every 1 hour to freshen up, eat some good food, and train their new recruits.

While during the trip Tianlong Shui was teaching them their language so they could communicate better with the rest of the group.

They seemed a bit sloppy and sturdy at first. Their movements were like weak robots who were just asked to do some complicated moves.

But seeing their food, and the new treatment, in only one day they started to show more interest in training, and fighting.

The truth was that they were showing a high talent for fighting from the start. They had lost such good seedlings all this time.

There was no more time to think about that right now though because it was time to eat dinner and to think about their next attack.

They had to make the most out of this little time they had and pilfer as much as they could. With the information they possessed they had already made a plan.

Of course, there might be some changes in the application of the plan, but the general idea was already settled.

They would attack 8 small camps in the first week, while they pilfered and recruited as many soldiers as they could to add to their numbers.

Then after that, they would hold a training camp for two more weeks, so they could strengthen their recruits, while also teaching them the basics of cultivation.

The last week would be the big closure of this mission, they were planning to attack 13 camps in 7 days without stop, and then take the surviving recruits to get back to the mainland.

While their mission seemed easy, in reality, it was everything but that. In these 4 weeks, their concentration should be ever-present.

Not to mention the blood that would flow in these days would most probably create a small lake. But that didn't matter much to them.

What mattered were the results of their pilfering and new recruits. These two were the most important objectives of this mission.

With these thoughts in mind, they started talking about their proceedings from now on. The first thing to do was to divide the new recruits into teams, and the leader of each team was a shadow.

Like this, during the fighting, they would be more active but even more protected. While they wanted to test and select all the recruits, this didn't mean they would let them die easily.

It was difficult to find soldiers that were ready to fight with everything they had like they did, so they were an important resource for the Clan.

Secondly, they decided on the priorities of each team, some were good about killing in the dark, while some were better at head-on fighting.

Also, the priorities after the camp had been taken down. Some of them would look for food, some for the diamonds and valuables, and some would deal with the slaves.

At the same time, a timetable for guarding was needed. You never knew what this cursed desert brought to your door.

They had to be prepared for everything that might come their way. Be that human or an animal, they had to be careful of both.

After discussing all these, and eating dinner, all of them went to sleep and be ready for tomorrow, with the exception of Tianlong Huo who was the guard for the night.

They had a 2-hours guarding shift, so that all the members got a good sleep and didn't lose their sharpness, and focus due to tiredness.

Slowly the night passed, and now it was close to daybreak, it was only 45 minutes away. In order to not make noise, and unnecessarily alert the camp, they left the vehicles there and left.

Just like the previous night, even tonight they had a total victory over their prey. This time they had fewer slaves, but with the shadows help, they finished faster, and without any losses.

Only two slaves died from their side, and even they died only because two guys decided to not die alone, and exploded bombs on their bodies.

This camp was better than the other one the previous night though, not only were they able to recruit more slaves, but even the valuables around here were about 2 times more.

This time, Tianlong Yue and Lu Bing seemed to be better than the previous night. They were starting to get used to such bloody scenes.

Things were just starting to take shape, but from the layout until now, the future looked promising. They would surely make a name for themselves.

Like this slowly the first week came to an end, with them managing to achieve their first-week objective. It had been easier than they thought.

A good reason for this easiness was the slaves that they had recruited and were training. Their number had reached 100, from which 20 were clearly the cream of the crop.

After this long week of attacking and pilfering, it was finally the time for them to concentrate totally on training, and teaching cultivation to their recruits.

For this, they had selected a place that was clearly well-hidden, in the midst of sand dunes and barren lands. Nobody would think they could survive here.

But during this week they had collected enough food, water, and other needed things for the whole group of 110 people.

Each team now had a Shadow Clan member and 10 members, of which 2 of them were deputy leaders of the team.

This made it easier for them to be directed and placed during the fighting. Which also helped to keep them alive and not die for stupid reasons.

These guys were selected from the thousands of slaves, that had decided to join them, and ended meeting their creator, or back to being slaves.

It was a survival of the fittest, those who couldn't survive only had their selves to blame for not being strong enough.

This marked the start of the training camp for the group, which soon enough would start once again pilfering, killing, and recruiting.

On the other hand, far away from the African Continent, Jake Long was having some special time with the 4 women he was keeping inside the space of the 'Old Pouch'.

In these 10 days he had totally taken control of the Tianlong House Camp, and slowly was starting to help the disciples get stronger, and the finances show better figures.

Not long after he got here, and he spread the rumor of a big background being behind him, he was immediately approached by the remaining two big families in this place.

The first to arrive was Chu Feng with his son Chu Fan, they not only offered him a good sum of money, but they also brought a girl to keep him company.

Apparently, they had bought her really expensively from 'the Mansion' and she was one of the best fairies they had. The only problem was that she wasn���t still pure.

That wouldn't stop Jake Long from accepting such a gift though, no matter what she looked like a real beauty, so what man would refuse something like that.

Seeing their sincerity in their gift, Jake Long promised to help them spread their businesses and reach far beyond this small Tianchang city, especially for their new product.

The other big family, the Mu family didn't seem really impressed by the spread rumors though. But they couldn't be faulted either since their family head, Mu Xiya wasn't here.

She was on a tour around China, where she was supervising the new shops and distribution of the newest product released by her group of companies.

Nonetheless, though she sent a representative who gave him a bountiful check, in hope of entering his good books.

At the moment, he was enjoying the good times with his 4 captives. The same night he placed the two-guard women inside, he already tasted and enjoyed them.

Every night he would enter inside this room space in here, have his fun with the 4 ladies, beat the shit out of the 'Tianlong Yun' inside, and leave.

Outside he would always try to find new preys he could taste and enjoy, while also doing his job.

The disciples were really weak, but soon he would get resources from the Sect, and also a new technique for all of them.

But there were a lot of games at play at the higher-ups, and his resources were kind of blocked at the moment.

There was one more thing he needed to pay attention to these days though, it was an intelligence report that stated that the Bao family's Young Master was coming back…
