Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 469 - 409, Counterattack_2
Chapter 469: Chapter 409, Counterattack_2
The territory was expanding rapidly. With the support of the alliance members, they had already occupied three nearby territories and plundered a large amount of resources, making Qiu Zhi Shang’s life increasingly prosperous.
When three bone dragons carrying skeleton soldiers appeared, it instantly drew the attention of the surrounding soldiers.
A mere approach with their weapons was met with the death breath of the bone dragons, reducing them instantly into scattered white bones.
Skeleton warriors disembarked from the dragons and began to clear the city guards.
With a captured peasant in tow, Fang Hao spoke in a cold voice.
“Where is your Lord, Qiu Zhi Shang?”
The peasant trembled in fear, his voice quivering, “The Lord has gone to the, the tile kiln.”
“And where is this kiln?”
“To the west outside the city,” the peasant quickly replied.
After releasing the peasant, Fang Hao addressed the crowd, “Everyone, there’s no need to worry. I’m only here to discuss some matters with your Lord. As long as you stay here obediently and avoid touching any weapons, I can assure your safety. Do you understand?”
“Un-understood,” the crowd stuttered in response.
Any soldiers attempting resistance or defense had already been eliminated.
The only ones left were these timid and fearful peasants.
Fang Hao came for Qiu Zhi Shang himself; there was no need to kill all these people.
He ordered the skeleton soldiers to guard the people.
Then he led the remaining men quickly toward the tile kiln on the west side outside the city.
Shortly, Fang Hao arrived at the location of the kiln.
There were numerous kilns constructed here, and many workers were bustling about.
Not far away, a middle-aged man, surrounded by many people, also noticed Fang Hao and his troop.
The sight of the undead army approaching him drained his face of color, and he turned and bolted.
Bang!!
A gunshot rang out, and Dong Jiayue hit his ankle.
Qiu Zhi Shang fell to the ground, howling in agony.
“What an aim!” Fang Hao praised Dong Jiayue.
Firearms are actually not easy to use; they are slow to load, inaccurate, but pack a punch.
If fired accurately, they can kill an enemy of higher rank.
However, that’s if you can fire it accurately.
“I wanted to fire a warning shot, didn’t mean to hit him,” Dong Jiayue said helplessly.
“Well… seems like he’s done too many bad deeds, even the heavens aren’t helping him,” Fang Hao justified.
Qiu Zhi Shang’s guards were eliminated.
Two skeleton trolls dragged him to the crowd as if he were a dead dog, and threw him in front of everyone.
“Who are you? I’m an elder of Tianpeng Alliance. Don’t act rashly. I have tens of thousands of soldiers in the city. You won’t benefit from this,” Qiu Zhi Shang, clutching his ankle, shouted loudly.
Blood was seeping out from between his fingers.
Pain was warping Qiu Zhi Shang’s face. He continued to issue warnings amidst his whimpers of pain.
“Qiu Zhi Shang, you swore at me just last night. You can’t have forgotten me already,” Fang Hao smiled at Qiu Zhi Shang.
Qiu Zhi Shang’s pupils contracted, “You’re Fang Hao. No, impossible. How did you get here?”
They had calculated that Fang Hao’s territory should be near Dong Jiayue’s.
There were several regions between Dong Jiayue and himself, how could Fang Hao possibly be here?
And didn’t he send Song Yu to kill Dong Jiayue?
Did Song Yu die?
How could it happen so quickly?
Demitrija bent down and snatched the Book of Lords from him.
After consuming it, they also found the location of Yu Tianpeng’s territory on the map.
Fang Hao nodded at Demitrija, hinting something.
Swish swish!!
Getting Fang Hao’s hint, Demitrija swung his swords and severed Qiu Zhi Shang’s arms.
Blood spurted out from the wounds, dyeing Qiu Zhi Shang red in an instant.
As Qiu Zhi Shang was about to let out an even more piercing scream, Demitrija swung his sword again, and the blade flashed across his neck.
A head fell from the body, rolling on the ground and finally stopping at a distance.
His eyes, still wide open, stared grimly at his city in the distance.
“Bury him here. Let’s go back to the city to rest,” Fang Hao said.
“Demon Doll” releases skills by using the energy from its controller.
After releasing “Demon Teleportation” twice in a row, Fang Hao’s spiritual power had also been drained.
After burying Qiu Zhi Shang, Fang Hao led everyone back to the city.
The villagers were still gathered and squatting on the bare ground under surveillance.
Fang Hao spoke, “This city has a new ruler now. If you’re willing, you can continue living here. I will assign a new City Lord for you. If you don’t wish to stay, you can leave, and I will provide the necessary provisions for your journey.”
This place was different from Song Yu’s city—it was quite far from any subsidiary territories.
Although Song Yu’s city could be handed over to Dong Jiayue, there was a significant distance from both Fang Hao’s and Dong Jiayue’s territories, so a new lord would need to be assigned here later.
Hearing Fang Hao’s words, the villagers began to discuss among themselves in hushed whispers.
Qiu Zhi Shang was not a competent lord; he had been heavily exploiting the villagers.
In the tile production, a piecemeal work system was established.
The territory did not provide food supplies; they had to exchange their productions for it.
