At that moment, another, rather gaunt adventurer let out a cold, sneering laugh. "So that's why those jackals have been rounding people up at random. They'll grab anyone even slightly suspicious, and if they can't get the information they want, they just kill them all. They'd rather kill an innocent person than let someone slip through the cracks."
It was clear these local adventurers had no love for the outsiders; in fact, they harbored a deep animosity toward them.
Given Su Zhou's personality, he would normally be asking some cutting questions right about now, like, 'If that's the case, why don't you fight back?' or 'What if Duke Naisel's heir actually succeeds, breaks control of the Elemental Array, and takes the entire city down with them? What will you do then?'
But right now, Su Zhou was in no mood for such trivialities—the answers would be nothing more than 'we can't win' and 'we don't know'.
