Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Sleepless Night for the Global Lords 1
Translator: 549690339
Dead silence.
Within the entire hall, there was a deathlike silence, like that of a tomb.
Gazing at the mutilated, lifeless body of the City Lord, a chilling fear suddenly rose from the depths of Spencer Thorne’s and the Imperial Guards’ hearts.
One must know, a Tier 4 Powerhouse could stand undefeated even if they faced an ordinary Tier 1 army of thousands alone.
On the battlefield, such a powerhouse would absolutely terrify enemies. They were known far and wide and received admiration from countless people. In the Coldflame Kingdom, if a small family had a Tier 4 powerhouse, then that family, no matter how weak or declining it was, would rise to prominence in a short time and become a dazzling new star in the kingdom.
Even being directly conscripted by the royal family and transforming into new nobles was not an impossible feat.
In short, both noble families and various powers would not easily offend a Tier 4 Powerhouse.
After all, the number of Tier 4 Powerhouses in such a vast kingdom could be easily counted; at most, there would only be a few dozen.
Undoubtedly, if they suffered the crazy revenge of a Tier 4 Powerhouse, it would be enough to severely damage or even destroy any medium-sized power.
It is precisely because of this, when they discovered that the City Lord had advanced to Tier 4, Spencer Thorne and the others showed delighted expressions, thinking they held a winning ticket.
However, they could never have dreamt that
the City Lord, who was a Tier 1+ Powerhouse, would not even be able to resist for a moment before being cut in half by the enemy…
“How can this be?”
At this moment, Spencer Thorne’s face was filled with disbelief as he unconsciously took a few steps back.
As for those Imperial Guards who had been arrogant just moments before, they all looked terrified, with some even collapsing to the ground.
Without a doubt, if someone could kill a Tier 4 Powerhouse in one strike, the answer would naturally be crystal clear: only a symbol of royal authority could do this!
“A Tier 5 Powerhouse? How is this possible? How could an otherworldly lord who had just arrived not long ago gain the loyalty of a Tier 5 Powerhouse?!”
Realizing this, Spencer Thorne’s throat felt as if it was being strangled by an invisible hand, as he gasped for breath.
As for those loyal dog-like Imperial Guards, their faces had already turned ash-grey. With all the evil deeds they had committed, they knew clear well that their doom was approaching.
On the other side, the pretty and young maids who had suffered much were all looking excitedly at Leo Ray.
This otherworldly lord had undoubtedly brought them the dawn of hope and a bright future!
“You all, don’t come over! Or their lives will be forfeit!”
Just when the maids were fantasizing about their wonderful future,
Spencer Thorne, who was closest to them, suddenly shouted and charged towards them.
The next second, just when the grimacing Spencer Thorne thought he had succeeded, an elegant yet cold voice sounded behind him, “My friend, using women as a shield is not a gentleman’s act.”
In an instant, accompanied by a crisp sound of a neck snapping, the ferocious look in Spencer Thorne’s eyes suddenly vanished, and his eyes quickly dimmed. He then fell lifelessly onto the marble floor with a “thump.”
“Begin the cleanup.”
Next, without any hesitation, Leo Ray waved his hand nonchalantly, and the hall was once again filled with a bloody storm.
Through previous intelligence, it was known
that these Imperial Guards were loyal soldiers trained by the City Lord for many years. Each of them had blood on their hands from countless innocent civilians, so there was no need to spare them.
In a blink of an eye, apart from Leo Ray’s party of six and the group of maids hiding in the corner, the entire hall and the other areas of the mansion were completely cleaned.
Before Leo Ray stepped into the hall, he had already received a Mind Talk from Linda and Mason Banks.
Whether it was the two thousand Defense Army led by Rhizoma Drynariae or the nearly one thousand mercenaries, all of them were in a state of absolute neutrality and posed no threat to Leo Ray’s side.
Thus, the power of the City Lord’s side in Cyan Town was completely wiped out.
At the same time, a long-awaited notification sounded in Leo Ray’s ear.
[Respected Lord, congratulations! You have successfully occupied Cyan Town of the Coldflame Kingdom, and Cyan Town has become your new territory!] Following that, a new panel full of complicated data popped up in front of Leo
Ray.
[Territory: Cyan Town]
[Town Level: Lv3](Will automatically upgrade when conditions are met)
[Prosperity: 76 (maximum 100 points)] [Security: 79 (maximum 100 points)]
[Allegiance: 50 (maximum 100 points)]
After this, there were a series of indicators and charts such as population, sex ratio, birth rate, taxes, number of buildings, unemployment rate, and education rate.
After looking carefully for a while, Leo Ray couldn’t help feeling dizzy and shook his head helplessly.
“Let it be, these basic management tasks should be left to Linda, Mason Banks, and the others.
There will be more and more towns like this in the future. If I had to personally manage every one of them, I wouldn’t have time for anything else.”
Closing the town panel, Leo Ray heard the system notification again.
[Respected Your Excellency, congratulations! You are the first lord in the world to succeed in occupying a town. Global broadcast will now commence. Would you like to make your name public?] “Make it public!”
Without hesitation, Leo Ray responded.
Without a doubt, although he was currently developing much faster than other lords, with other lords’ growth and awakening of talents,
some lords would inevitably stand out and gradually become a formidable force not to be underestimated.
Moreover, these forces would certainly have a profound impact on the current distribution of power.
It could even divert some of the pressure he was currently facing from the
Coldflame Kingdom.
Therefore, what he needed to do now, was to increase his fame among the nearly one billion Lord Circle as much as possible.
In this way, he could have enough appeal to mobilize the Lords to disrupt some of his opponents’ plans while applying only a little effort.
As for his other persona, the Anonymous Bigshot, it would have to lie low for a while.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, a loud and startling thunderclap suddenly exploded in the ears of nearly a billion lords!
[Congratulations to Lord Leo Ray (0013076067), the first in the world to successfully occupy a town! Reward: one random Skill Scroll and one random Magical Potion Formula!]
For a moment, lords all around the world who were asleep awoke from their beds, their faces filled with shock.
Tonight, for everyone, it was destined to be a sleepless night!
