The Jingan Army's captured ruffians finally had some work to do. Without waiting for deployment orders, they were directly put to labor.

After Zhou Yuan contacted the officials at the Prefectural Office's Crafting Department to ascertain the location of the Shadow Spirit Secret Realm, all the captured ruffians were reassigned as hard laborers.

Under the threat of sharp weapons wielded by the auxiliary soldiers, this group worked diligently, fearing they might be punished as an example if they slacked off.

However, this hopeful wish was destined to be in vain. They were used to bullying the weak and had never endured such continuous hardship.
