212: Sneak attack, kill them all

"I see it. It's a spirit skill. But why is the release distance so far? I can't sense the existence of the caster at all."

Shangguan Cliff frowned slightly, lowering his head in thought.

He paused, then continued, "I can understand wanting treasures and resources, but what's the use of corpses? Could it be...? Never mind, let's return to the city. We're too far to chase him now. We won a great victory today, let's celebrate properly."

After speaking, Shangguan Cliff looked at the empty space before him. Although his expression was calm, his heart was filled with shock.

The treasures and resources were gone, but even the more than one hundred thousand corpses had completely disappeared.

This indicated that the person's spiritual power was probably at the Spirit General Rank.

It was as if no battle had ever occurred in front of 66th City, leaving it completely empty.

But only the blood flowing on the ground proved that a fierce battle had indeed taken place, with rivers of blood.

Shangguan Cliff, Shangguan Yue, and Shangguan Jue led their Soldiers back to the city in triumph.

...

"This long-range Telekinetic Pickup consumes a lot of spiritual power; I was almost completely drained."

Yang Qianhun felt that his spiritual power was almost depleted, but he had already taken out fifteen spirit enhancement pills from his spatial bag and put them into his mouth.

His spiritual power continuously recovered and increased.

His spatial bag now contained ten thousand Spiritual Master Level corpses and ninety thousand Spirit Practitioner Level corpses.

The resources obtained from the thirty lords and Brent, who had just been killed, were as follows:

One million iron blocks, five hundred thousand portions of food, five hundred thousand wood blocks, one million stone blocks, one hundred thousand copper, three thousand mystic crystals, one hundred fifty thousand spirit stones.

treasure map * 20.

advanced return scroll * 50.

Rare grade return scroll * 10.

rejuvenation pill * 400.

greater rejuvenation pill * 50.

recovery pill * 50.

spirit grass * 100.

licorice stone * 30.

This harvest, one could only say, was pretty good.

Suddenly, several voices came from a distance, getting closer and closer.

"We should still be on time if we arrive now, after all, that guy Brent only asked us to intercept."

The blonde, blue-eyed, hawk-nosed F-country lord from before said with a relaxed expression, showing no signs of nervousness before going out to battle.

"Anyway, we've been ambushed for half a day and haven't seen a single person. If Brent succeeds in attacking the city, we can also claim some credit."

The blonde, blue-eyed Hughes shrugged and said.

"But why haven't we heard any sounds of battle for half a day? Has it really ended?"

The chubby, black-haired youth asked with a puzzled expression, guessing.

"That's impossible. A Level 2 city isn't made of paper; it can't just be captured like that. I think it definitely hasn't started yet. With Brent's personality, he's probably still procrastinating."

A dark-skinned, curly-haired middle-aged man retorted, but his eyes were also filled with confusion.

After speaking, the four led more than twenty thousand Soldiers and continued to slowly advance towards 66th City.

The next second.

"No, it's still too quiet. It's a pity Eagle Eye can't see through things, these damned weeds are blocking my view. I can't jump up, so I suggest we stop here and send a small group of people to investigate."

The blonde, blue-eyed, hawk-nosed F-country lord raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop, his expression solemn.

"You're probably just being too paranoid, aren't you? Isn't it better to be safe?"

The chubby, black-haired youth questioned.

"Quiet doesn't equal safe. I also suggest we observe the situation first."

Hughes also agreed with the blonde, blue-eyed, hawk-nosed man's suggestion.

"Then we'll... No, everyone, be careful."

Just as the curly-haired middle-aged man was about to reply, he suddenly felt the surrounding temperature plummet, and a massive wave of icy killing intent surged like a tide.

His expression greatly changed. A battle saber had already appeared in his hand, and he loudly shouted.

Before his words fell.

At the location of the four F-country lords, countless black-armored warriors, completely covered and holding Shadow Blades, suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Without much extra talk, they directly swung their blades at the Soldiers under the four F-country lords.

Fifteen thousand Shadow Guards attacked simultaneously, eliminating nearly twenty thousand enemies in just an instant.

Puff, puff, puff, puff, puff...

One blade to the throat, one strike to kill.

Blood sprayed into the sky like blooming flowers, and the scent of blood instantly spread out, permeating the entire area.

"What in the world is going on? Where did these enemies come from?"

The blonde, blue-eyed, hawk-nosed man held a greatsword, his face panicked, as he charged towards a Shadow Guard.

"What kind of strength is this? In the blink of an eye, out of more than twenty thousand people, only a little over two thousand remain. Who exactly is this?"

Hughes took out his staff and released a blue beam of light at a Shadow Guard, his words filled with shock.

"Damn it, how did so many ambushers get so close to us?"

The chubby, black-haired youth had a shield in each hand, firmly protecting himself and the other three lords.

"Running is definitely not an option. The other party probably discovered us long ago and came prepared. Let's kill as many as we can, but it's a bit frustrating to die without even knowing who killed us."

Although the curly-haired middle-aged man was greatly shocked internally, he was relatively calmer than the others, wielding his battle saber and charging at the Shadow Guards.

Whoosh...

"So fast..."

The greatsword in the blonde, blue-eyed, hawk-nosed man's hand had not yet struck the Shadow Guard when a black light flashed before his eyes.

The next second, he felt a sudden weakness throughout his body, his throat could no longer make a sound, his entire body went limp, his eyes closed, and he fell straight to the ground.

At the same time.

The other three F-country lords were also killed by other Shadow Guards with a single strike, completely unable to resist.

The remaining Soldiers were also completely dealt with by the fifteen thousand Shadow Guards, not a single one left alive.

And the Shadow Guards were completely unharmed, as if they had just casually stepped on an ant.

Yang Qianhun once again used Telekinetic Pickup, collecting all the corpses, supplies, and treasures into his spatial bag.

His spatial bag now contained two thousand Spiritual Master Level corpses and twenty thousand Spirit Practitioner Level corpses.

The resources obtained from the four lords and Brent, who had just been killed, were as follows:

Two hundred thousand iron blocks, one hundred thousand portions of food, one hundred thousand wood blocks, two hundred thousand stone blocks, twenty thousand copper, thirty thousand spirit stones.

rejuvenation pill * 50.

"Shangguan Lieshan and Shangguan Qinglin did not appear. Their strength is estimated to be above Spirit General Rank. As the City Lord, Shangguan Yunhai's strength should be the strongest. I wonder if he has broken through to the Spirit King Level?"

After collecting all the supplies and treasures, Yang Qianhun turned his head and looked at 66th City, several kilometers away, once more.

At the same time, within the city several kilometers away, an invisible gaze, like a sharp arrow, also shot towards Yang Qianhun...

In an instant.

Hiss... Zzzzt... Crack!

"Interesting, still trying to test my strength."
