Chapter 175: Capital Offense!

The premise of a fair trade is that both sides have equal strength.

The Villager King knew that his strength was on a completely different level from that of the Void, but he still continued trading with the Void to gain power.

In the end, he was also punished by the power he so desired.

Now, he was completely a puppet king.

The Villager King was the first villager in this world to develop consciousness, and he was indeed very smart.

Otherwise, just relying on the dirt-for-diamonds trade system wouldn't have supported him to get this far in this chaotic world.

He had only made the mistake that most people would make during their growth.

Desiring power that one could not control.

At this moment, the Villager King had clearly realized the severity of the situation. The purpose of these iron golems was murder.

It seemed they had to kill in order to gain stronger power, and the Void was the same. However, the iron golems created and summoned by the villagers were the most suitable for fusion with the Ender Eyes.

They were physically strong, had no consciousness, and were easy to control. Most importantly, they could be mass-produced by the villagers.

With the existence of the trading system, the villagers could be said to be the creatures in this world most capable of obtaining iron golems. And the Void had specifically noticed this advantage of the villagers.

The Void had repeatedly forced the Ender Eyes onto the Villager King. And each time, the number increased.

The Villager King knew that the more Ender Eyes he obtained, the greater the threat to the villagers. But the Villager King simply could not refuse.

These iron golems had already figured out the cooldown time of the Villager King's trading system.

Every time the time was up, without the iron golems' reminder, the Enderman who first took the Villager King to the End would arrive on time.

The Villager King was completely forced into this trade, like a duck being pushed onto a perch.

It was almost laughable.

The Villager King developed the villager kingdom so that the villagers could be in control and no longer oppressed. He never thought that even with power, they still couldn't change the fate of being oppressed.

Before, it was by the players, and now it was by the Void.

After thinking this, the Villager King looked around at the cold, empty hall.

Once, this place would be filled every day with villagers who had advanced trading systems to discuss matters.

Although, by the end of the discussions, they would always end up using their noses to swipe other villagers' faces and spray insults.

But they all had a goal, a beautiful future to strive for.

Now, those villagers with advanced trading systems had all been placed under house arrest. They had become trade tools and no longer had the time to brainstorm together.

The Villager King sighed deeply after thinking about this. "This can't go on! I must do something!!"

Now, he had been completely sidelined, and the iron golems would not allow him to leave the castle. Nor would they allow other villagers to enter the castle.

In such circumstances, the Villager King had no way to seek help from anyone.

After thinking this, the Villager King took a deep breath. He glanced back and saw two iron golems still discussing the Ender Eye glowing with blue light.

He then turned back, rummaged through his backpack for a moment.

Then, he took out an enchanted diamond sword. The Villager King's hand trembled as he grasped the enchanted diamond sword.

He suppressed his emotions and slowly raised the sword to his neck. The Villager King's actions were clear; it was a self-inflicted death.

At this moment, it seemed like this was the only road he could take.

He was sure that the Void needed diamonds. This was also an important reason why he was able to make a deal with the Void in the first place.

Because the Villager King was the only villager among so many who could exchange dirt for diamonds. If the Villager King died, it would be very difficult for the Void to obtain diamonds.

As a result, the trade would temporarily stop. Moreover, many villagers had already noticed the abnormalities of these iron golems.

The Villager King's death would also serve as a warning to the villagers.

Although the Villager King did not want to die, this matter had started because of him, and he had to take responsibility.

The Villager King did a lot of mental preparation, but still hesitated to act. His right hand holding the sword had already started sweating, and the sword on his neck felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Giving up life was never so easy. The Villager King hesitated for a long time, but ultimately made his decision.

He wiped the sweat off his hand and gripped the sword's hilt tightly. After taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes.

Just as he was about to swing the sword to end his life, he heard a loud "bang."

The castle's main door was suddenly opened. Blinding light immediately streamed in from outside the door.

A villager hurriedly ran in, followed by several iron golems.

Seeing this, the Villager King quickly put down the diamond sword in his hand. He ran up to the villager who had rushed in. As he got closer, the Villager King finally saw who the villager was.

"Mustard?!"

The villager in front of him, wearing a blue robe, was named Mustard. Although he did not have any advanced trading systems, he was still appointed by the Villager King as a "Minister."

He was allowed to enter the castle for discussions. This was mainly because Mustard was very special; he was very smart.

His suggestions often brought new ideas to the Villager King. Like the Villager King, he was also willing to learn and explore this world.

Just as the Villager King was thinking this, he saw Mustard quickly charge toward him. He stumbled and fell in front of the Villager King.

"King!! Help... help me!!"

Before Mustard could finish his words, the iron golems behind him followed. They clearly did not see the Villager King as a threat, raising their arms to strike Mustard on the head.

"Stop!!" The Villager King shouted angrily and immediately stepped in front of Mustard.

Although the Villager King issued the command, the iron golems did not stop. Just as the iron golems were about to strike the Villager King's face, a voice came from behind.

"Stop!"

The voice came from one of the iron golems that had originally gone to the back hall. Due to the loud noise, the two iron golems had walked out from the back hall.

Seeing this, the iron golems that were about to strike Mustard stopped their actions. They slowly retreated.

Seeing Mustard lying behind the Villager King, the two iron golems exchanged a glance. They were about to say something, but saw the Villager King turn around and press the diamond sword against Mustard's neck.

"Mustard."

"Do you not know that entering the palace without being summoned is a capital offense?!"
