Player Awakening: I Become A Lord In Game-Like World-Chapter 39: Other Conquered Territories
CL_Ellise sent something to Caleb, not items or resources, but coordinates. From the message, CL_Ellise asked Caleb to come to the location of the coordinate to talk directly with him, Caleb certainly would not miss this.
[Recipient: CL_Ellise]
[Kingdom Name: _Apo_King]
[Sure. I’ll come there at noon]
[Message sent]
The reason why Caleb would come at noon was to leave with the Heavy Scout troop unit. Among the other troop units, only the Heavy Scout currently had the highest ability.
CL_Ellise didn’t mind. Since the last message Caleb had sent, CL_Ellise had not sent any more messages to Caleb.
Caleb squinted, wondering what CL_Ellise was trying to do by submitting a request to join Caleb’s alliance,
This was very strange and confusing. Caleb knew that his relationship with CL_Ellise was not good, they met several times not to talk, but to fight.
Their first encounter was when they saved Liliana’s town hall. Since then, the intensity of their encounters increased until the peak was that night, a two-player battle between Caleb against D_Destroyer and Liliana_P against CL_Ellise.
The four-player war was quite large and significant, but due to the strength of Caleb’s large army, he was able to deal with the real threat of CL_Ellise’s army.
[WARNING!]
[Your troop unit is under attack!]
A warning panel appeared in front of Caleb, informing the man about his army unit that was fighting in the territory of D_Destroyer’s town hall.
John, the player owning the invaded town hall, turned pale and panicked. Caleb’s 30 troop units attacked him suddenly, destroying the palisade wall and threatening him as he tried to level up the town hall.
"Damn it. You really want to destroy me, Caleb!" complained John.
He did not want to act rashly. John stepped into his town hall, taking cover. He took out all the militia and first bowman units he had stored in the town hall, to block Caleb’s Heavy Scout unit.
His Scout had been destroyed. John was reluctant to let Caleb destroy the whole place. He summoned several units of First Swordsman troops obtained from the treasure cave to fight Caleb’s troops.
Caleb saw through the vision commander, John’s troops increased from the 14 units, to 24 units, consisting of 5 Militia, 4 First Bowman, and 15 First Swordsman, while Caleb’s unit still remained 30 with some of them starting to get injured.
’I didn’t expect the battle to be so tight. There’s only one way I can win the war,’ Caleb replied.
’Destroy the town hall and stop the town’s attack and defense mechanisms,’ Caleb said.
He selected all his Heavy Scout units, then focused them on destroying the town hall and killing everyone there.
That way, William’s units wouldn’t be attacked from two directions while defeating John’s army units.
[Battle Status]
[Kills: 4] [+4]
[Razed Building: 0]
[Unit Die: 0]
[War probability: 82% war win]
The battle status panel appeared before Caleb. His army unit had successfully killed four enemy units, all of which were archer units.
Another 20 units were still fighting while Caleb’s Heavy Scout unit was trying to destroy the town hall.
"Should I go send another troop?" asked Caleb, curious.
A red dot appeared on the friend chat page. From the page, Caleb saw John message him and actually condemned what Caleb was doing.
[Friend Chat!]
[D_Destroyer] [Hey, aren’t we friends? Stop attacking me. Please!]
[Caleb] [You should have thought about our relationship before deciding on CL_Ellise’s side]
[Caleb] [Too late!]
[Caleb] [I will kill you. Today, you will die in my hands]
Caleb chose to close the friend chat page even though he saw the red dot reappear. Caleb refocused his gaze forward, watching the game map from his vision fog talent.
From the vision fog map, he saw the number of enemy troop units reduced significantly, from the first 24, to 20, and currently 16 troop units remained.
Although Caleb managed to kill about 8 enemy troop units, but he also suffered losses. 5 of his troop units died from being hit by the town hall’s defense arrows.
The durability of D_Destroyer’s town hall was decreasing, from green, to yellow, orange, to red.
After thirty minutes of attacking the town hall, the town hall finally crumbled and the people ran out of nowhere.
"Finally. The last threat is gone," Caleb said.
He divided the 25 Heavy Scout units into five small groups, each group of five units. They were tasked with hunting down the townspeople and killing them, as well as capturing John alive.
The other small groups were tasked with defeating enemy army units until there were none left. They obeyed, and a massacre was inevitable in the town.
"CALEB!"
"Please! Don’t kill me, Caleb!"
John ran around shouting, walking closer to Caleb’s town area until a warning panel appeared in front of Caleb, alerting him to the presence of enemy units.
The First Bowman unit inside the town hall immediately charged forward, killing John as he approached.
Their accuracy rate increased drastically due to two things: the town hall level increase and the buff from Commander Arash The Archer.
[Battle Status]

[Unit Die: 8] [+3]
[War probability: 98% war win]
"Wait, Caleb. I can help you with—"
PIERCE!
Five arrows shot out and stuck firmly in John’s body. The man’s speech stopped when he saw five arrows stuck in his body, leaving his organs severely injured.
Caleb stepped closer to John with Leonidas by his side, just in case John did anything to harm him.
"Why?"
"You betrayed me. That’s what happened," Caleb replied.
"You’d rather protect her than ally with me? She’s not a good woman."
Caleb drew Leonidas’ sword and slashed John’s neck in one sideways swing. The neck was ripped apart, blood pouring from the cut hole to make John’s face turn pale.
John bled to death, lying face down on the ground, right in front of Caleb.
[DING! Congratulations, you have conquered another player’s territory]
[Kingdom Name: #9845008]
[King’s name: D_Destroyer]
[Conqueror gets all resources]
[Wood: 1520]
[Food: 1240]
[Gold: 787]
[Stone: 596]
[Does the host want to annex the land?]
[Yes] [No]
Caleb looked at the information panel about the conquered territory. Caleb’s eyes drifted away from the panel to stare down at the pitifully dead figure of John with his stomach full of arrows and his neck slashed by a sword.
"Traitors deserve to die."
