Buseray didn’t waste words with Wajir and immediately explained to Emperor Kilmock.

"Emperor, let me explain to you, Princess Krisia cannot be a traitor. Her closeness to Star Ring City is purely for our Empire. As for her relationship with Su Mo, it’s not at all like Wajir says. It’s clearly that guy Su Mo trying to seduce Princess Krisia, constantly harassing her, and Princess Krisia was merely blinded by him. Recently, we happened upon Su Mo with several women on the streets of Star Ring City, and when Lady Krisia realized she was deceived, she was furious and went up to slap him. All of this proves that Princess Krisia and Su Mo don’t have the kind of relationship to make her a traitor."

"Emperor, what Buseray said can’t prove Krisia isn’t a traitor. Otherwise, how could our secret contact points be destroyed? Very few people know about those points. Moreover, how could Icaroya know the deployment of the Eternal Sleep Clan, including the arrival of the clan leader, and then make a targeted strike?"

Wajir continued to press against Krisia, in his eyes, Krisia had the biggest suspicion.

At this moment, Prince Kyarat also spoke up.

"Father, I too am reluctant to suspect Krisia, but Wajir isn’t entirely without reason. Moreover, with this failure, the Eternal Sleep Clan is extremely enraged, we must find this traitor."

Wajir immediately added, "Emperor, I suggest we detain Princess Krisia for questioning and investigation, and all related personnel should be examined."

"Wajir, do you have evidence? Without evidence, you want to interrogate Krisia?"

Buseray angrily questioned.

"I don’t have solid evidence, but Krisia’s suspicion is the largest."

Wajir said without backing down.

Many present began to waver after hearing Wajir’s argument.

"It does seem Princess Krisia’s suspicion is the largest."

...

The Emperor, who had been coldly watching all this, listened to Wajir’s argument, his purple eyes flashing an unusual light, suddenly became furious, raising a hand.

Wajir’s whole body floated, painfully choking his own neck.

Emperor Kilmock clenched his hand!

Crunch!

Wajir was immediately strangled, dropping to the ground.

Everyone’s hearts trembled, frightened into silence.

Then Emperor Kilmock roared in a low voice, "Without evidence, you dare to speak irresponsibly, accusing the royal family."

Prince Kyarat was also shocked, completely unable to understand his father’s sudden favoritism towards Krisia.

Knowing that if they don’t find a significant traitor, how can they account to the Eternal Sleep Clan?

"I think this Wajir is the real traitor."

Emperor Kilmock decisively pinned the blame.

Everyone was dumbfounded, but none dared to refute.

They wouldn’t even guess that for Emperor Kilmock, everyone present was far less valuable than Krisia.

Not to mention Krisia only has some suspicion, even if she truly is a traitor, so what?

Wajir until his death, never understood how he angered the Emperor.

"Dismissed."

Emperor Kilmock announced deeply with a wave of his hand.

"Yes."

Everyone quickly responded.

-------------------------------------

Star Ring City·Port 17.

In the cargo hold of the Immortal Blade.

Su Mo wandered among piles of ore, hands behind his back, his mood couldn’t be better as he looked at the resources.

Indeed, the saying, "Only sudden wealth brings happiness," proved true.

At this moment, Su Mo stopped in front of a pile of Star Ore emitting a faint starlight.

He chatted with the creator·Swallower.

"I remember these glittering ores are what Icaroya wants, right?"

"Yes, so what?"

"Do you think we should hand them over?"

"Why asking this suddenly?"

"Handing them over for rewards isn’t too bad, not handing them over might get us killed when she finds out. You heard her at the celebration, there are consequences for refusal."

Su Mo was somewhat torn.

"Handing over so much, do you think that won’t raise issues? Icaroya City Lord will immediately suspect you’re up to something."

The creator·Swallower replied coldly.

"It’s not that much, I think among all ores, this type has the least quantity, just a few piles."

Su Mo was a bit surprised.

"Just a few piles? You probably don’t know the value of this Star Ore. It’s used as a main additive, very rare in production, others probably hand over only a few grams, and you prepare to submit thousands of tons?"

The creator·Swallower replied disdainfully.

"So rare, why don’t we just hand over a few grams as a gesture?"

Su Mo replied awkwardly.

"You hand over a few grams, later get caught, Icaroya that woman might be even more furious."

"Uh, forget it, pretend I didn’t say anything. Let’s go organize the formation."

Su Mo sighed in reply.

...

Soon after, Su Mo stepped out from the Immortal Blade’s exit.

Before him, soldiers fully armed stood in neat formation.

Tilo, Xiao Wen, Sun Duoxiang, Mo Baoke, Qian Chengxue, and others awaited Su Mo,

Su Mo looked at his sizable troops, feeling somewhat excited, as he walked directly to them.

Tilo and others saluted Su Mo.

"All members, 612,342 in total, present and accounted for."

Su Mo took a deep breath and officially announced.

"I declare from today, a new legion is formed, everyone will be assigned to the new formation."

"Yes! We will follow Lord Su Mo to the death."

Everyone replied passionately.

Then Sun Duoxiang asked with a smile, "Boss, what should we name our legion?"

Su Mo was momentarily speechless at Sun Duoxiang’s question, a bit undecided he said.

"I haven’t thought it through yet, any good suggestions?"

Tilo, Long Ke, and others exchanged glances, it was their first time encountering a legion formed without a name ready.

Though Qian Chengxue and others were already used to it.

"I think we could call it the Steel Legion, a steel torrent crushing everything, sounds imposing!"

Chen Shan suggested enthusiastically.

"That name isn’t good, Boss’s title is the Plague God, so our legion should be called the Plague Army."

Mo Baoke kept flattering.

"’Plague’ sounds unpleasant, you’re hoping everyone remembers Boss’s nickname? I think it should be called the Invincible Army, invincible is lonely."

Sun Duoxiang chimed in.

"That won’t do..."

...

Su Mo listened to their name proposals, feeling overwhelmed.

"Stop, none of them sound good. Forget it, why not call it the Catastrophe Army for now."
