922 Chapter 528: The Final Battle Begins, Qingqiu Is Dead This Time! [2/3]
“Otherwise, if this goes on, when will the rotten swamp be able to level up if all the dimensions refuse to send troops… One could not wear down the plan of killing with a borrowed knife and watching the tigers fight.”
No one was a fool. That was the problem.
Troops would fearlessly fight only when one or two planes were hostile to each other.
One could obtain vast benefits at its capture of the opponent’s plane.
However, several sides could happen now. Others could pick the peach even if one sent troops to capture the target.
In the end, the gains would not make up for the losses.
The rulers of these planes learned becoming wise after wars taught them a few remarkable lessons.
‘Right now, they’re unwilling to leave their planes to fight. It’s nothing more than an aversion to risk. At the same time, they’re worried that the benefits they get won’t be enough to cover their losses.
‘Seeking benefits and avoiding harm is the nature of intelligent life. Apart from being evil, they are also fools who confuse the factions.
‘Since you don’t want to come out, I’ll give you a reason to come out.’
That cleared Richard’s thoughts.
‘I remember the god’s ancient tree can condense a fruit that can increase one’s life potential… Previously, this boss had used this fruit to fish and lured other life forms into the desert of death to provide nutrients.
‘Now, this existence can open the space of another plane because of the void sandworm. The god’s ancient tree has not fished for a long time.’
The recent transformation of life and reinforcement is the instinctive desire of all life in the “Shining Era.”
‘No one can resist this temptation.
‘The leaders of those planes will invest a vast force in this while they strike the bait.
‘The transformation of the body was above all interests in the eyes of most forces.’
Richard thought of this. His eyes lit up with anticipation.
“I’ll let the god’s ancient tree fish in the rotten swamp after a conquer of Ell Plane…”
He finally came up with a solution to level the rotten swamp up. That improved his mood a little.
He had many heroes under his command. Each had unique abilities and strengths.
The most outstanding ones were undoubtedly these top bosses.
The god’s ancient tree was the most unique existence among everyone because this existence wasn’t a human but a tree.
Trees could do things that humans couldn’t. Blossoming and bearing fruit, planting saplings, breeding wasps, and so on were all unique characteristics of trees.
Richard shook his head with regret.
The reinforcement of the god’s ancient tree was still poor. The situation in Twilight City would be remarkably different if he could upgrade this boss to transcendent.
He would fish corpses for the god’s ancient tree to reinforce it to transcendence. He was going to pour resources into it.
Lion City was excited again after the soldiers had cleaned the battlefield up.
The Raging Blood Duke launched a second wave of attack. They were so powerful twice in a row, but in the end, they did not even reach the city wall.
This kind of exaggerated battle record even made many people regard Richard as the oracle of the gods. The gods had specially sent the savior to protect them.
In the high morale of Lion City, it was February 5th.
Richard was about to return to his room to take a hot bath after a sumptuous dinner.
Tundel rushed to stop him as he walked out of the dining room.
“Great Ruler Richard, something has happened!”
Richard looked at the girl’s sincere expression and lowered his voice.
“Speak.”
“I’ve just received news that the traitor, the Raging Blood Duke, has launched a massacre in several provinces of the kingdom of Ell. His target is! A noble loyal to the royal family of Ell.”
At this point, grief and rage devoured the princess’s exquisite face. She adamantly clenched her five fingers into fists.
“These traitors uprooted hundreds of noble forces, large and small. They heartlessly slaughtered each of the family members.
“That traitor had murdered over a million people… Blood even dyed the mother river of the Ell Kingdom, the Norton River, crimson!”
She was still a step too late and failed to protect her subjects and vassals.
“That damned traitor!”
She would hang him on the city walls, she swore!!!!
She bit her lip hard, and blood trickled down from the corner of her mouth.
Her gaze was like that of a tigress when one killed her cubs. That monstrous anger and suppressed hatred made people inexplicably afraid.
Richard looked at Tundel’s face. His first reaction was that the Raging Blood Duke’s actions were not as simple as they seemed.
“He slayed millions of people?
“He wouldn’t simply eliminate resisting forces.”
It was more like?
A word suddenly appeared in his mind.
‘Sacrifice!’
Yes, some ancient and evil sacrifices required countless corpses and blood.
The Raging Blood Duke had absolute control over the situation. As long as he could flatten Lion City, he would be the only king in Ell.
Brainless would not slaughter their own people.
However, the traitor had done so. It would be good if there were tens of thousands of core descendants of the hundreds of nobles.
There is no justice for these millions of people.
Richard recalled the traitor colluded with the abyss. The traitor’s actions were related to this.
Tundel revealed her inner thoughts and clenched her fists tightly. Anger engulfed her eyes.
“In our spy report, we also emphasized this conjecture.
“Please, go to the main hall. Everyone is waiting for your decision.”
Richard’s reputation in Lion City peaked following his dominance in the two wars.
Royal Princess Tundel could not easily influence the people without Richard’s say.
