29: Attack the stronghold

A murderous aura, like a blanket, pressed down on Hake and the two others, as if they were being stared down by a pack of wolves.

Huang Zhong, Gao Shun, thirty Death Warriors, and ten Strong Archers all drew their weapons, aimed at Hake and the two others, and glared at them.

Even if the three of them were incredibly foolish, they understood which side this group was on.

"Speak, how do you wish to die?" Yang Qianhun said calmly, without any emotional fluctuations in his voice.

With a thud.

"Big Brother, I was wrong. You saved me, and I should be grateful. Please, I beg you, forgive me for my foolishness and spare my life."

Hake immediately knelt down without a word, his voice filled with terror as he repeatedly begged for mercy.

"Big Brother, I was wrong too. Please, you are a great person, forgive me for my foolishness and spare me. I have an elderly parent above and young children below. Please, for the sake of my family, spare me."

Seeing this, Teld also knelt down without hesitation, already sweating profusely from nervousness, his words incoherent and trembling.

"I... I was blind just now, Big Brother, I was wrong. Please spare my life, I'll kowtow to you first."

Mike's legs gave out, and he was terrified, repeatedly begging for mercy.

Bang.

After speaking, Mike directly kowtowed heavily to the ground, making a loud sound.

Feeling that his sincerity was still not enough.

Bang bang.

He kowtowed twice more, then tremblingly looked at Yang Qianhun.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang…

The other two, seeing this, scrambled to kowtow, fearing that Yang Qianhun would be displeased and they would be dismembered.

"It's fine…"

Yang Qianhun said slowly.

Upon hearing this, the three of them immediately burst into tears, feeling as if their lives had been saved, their hearts overflowing with joy.

But in the next second, Yang Qianhun's words plunged their spirits to rock bottom.

"Just be more careful in your next life."

Yang Qianhun continued.

As soon as his voice fell, spear tips pierced through the hearts of all three of them.

Puff puff puff…

Blood flowed from the mouths of the three, gushing out in waves like hiccups.

They then fell straight to the ground, twitched twice, and then lost their breath.

A flash of light passed, and the items of the three were dropped.

Yang Qianhun activated the Ling Skill: Telekinetic Pickup, directly collecting all the items into his spatial bag.

The obtained items are as follows: 400 pieces of iron ore, 400 portions of food, 150 pieces of wood, 150 pieces of stone, and 30 Ling stones.

Yang Qianhun then moved his mind and summoned the virtual panel.

He clicked on the territory information, then clicked on Barracks.

He directly clicked to recruit: eight Sword and Shield Guardss.

Cost: 400 pieces of iron ore, 400 portions of food, 130 Ling stones.

The iron and food were completely used up, and 170 Ling stones remained.

A flash of light passed through the Barracks gate, and a Sword and Shield Guards walked out.

In less than three minutes, eight Sword and Shield Guardss were neatly assembled in front of the Barracks.

Under Yang Qianhun's mental command, these eight Sword and Shield Guardss were assigned to Wu Song for training and command.

Yang Qianhun then withdrew and moved his mind directly.

The purple Conquest Token directly transformed into a streak of light, arcing through the air, like a meteor falling to the ground.

It formed a purple pillar of light that shot up into the sky, and powerful spiritual energy fluctuations rippled out from the light pillar.

After the golden light dissipated, twenty Strong Archers appeared before Yang Qianhun.

"Greetings, Lord."

Following the addition of these twenty Strong Archers, Yang Qianhun and his group set off majestically towards the treasure location.

Along the way, they killed twenty Steel-Toothed Wild Boars and twenty Brutal Tooth Rabbits.

They dropped: 20 pieces of iron ore and 20 portions of food.

Thirty minutes later, Yang Qianhun and the others were only about a thousand meters away from the treasure location.

In the distance were continuous small mountains, and one small mountain seemed to have been flattened by a sharp sword.

A small mountain stronghold was actually built on it, along with wooden watchtowers.

And there was only one path leading to the stronghold, which was quite wide, probably wide enough for five people to walk abreast without any problem.

It was clear that the treasure location was on the mountain stronghold.

And at this moment, the scene before them made Yang Qianhun and the others stop their advance.

Because at present, a group of people were actually attacking the mountain stronghold, and three of them were old acquaintances of Yang Qianhun.

Mu Linxue, Yang Ziying, Arthur, and another female Lord, holding a blue longsword, similar in age to Mu Linxue and the others.

There were also two Soldiers, one male and one female.

The male wore armor and held war hammers in both hands. The female wore light blue armor, gracefully, and tightly gripped a rapier in one hand.

Thirty Sword Soldiers, ten Archer, ten Shield Soldiers, and twenty Spear Soldiers, among which the Spear Soldiers were Advanced Grade Soldiers.

This was their entire strength.

And the information of that female Lord:

Name: Lin Zixi

Status: Alert

Planet: Blue Star

Race: Human

Talent: Heart of Ice and Snow (Epic)

Realm: Ling Shi Fourth Order

Cultivation Method: Icebound Tome (Epic)

Ling Skills: Freeze (Normal), Ice Thorn Array (Advanced Grade)

And that male Soldier:

Name: Kuang Tie

Planet: Blue Sea Star

Race: Human

Aptitude: Rare

Realm: Ling Shi Seventh Order

Cultivation Method: Berserk Hammer Combat Method (Epic)

Ling Skills: Heavy Hammer Strike (Advanced Grade), Chain War Hammer (Advanced Grade)

The remaining Soldier:

Name: Charlotte

Planet: Blue Sea Star

Race: Human

Aptitude: Rare

Realm: Ling Shi Seventh Order

Cultivation Method: Light-Slaying Sword Art (Epic)

Ling Skills: Light-Breaking Slash (Advanced Grade), Swift Triple Strike (Advanced Grade)

And what attracted Yang Qianhun's attention the most was Arthur, after all, he was either getting beaten or on his way to getting beaten.

Arthur charged at the very front, holding a large shield, blocking in front.

Bang bang…

Two one-eyed men, holding maces, directly smashed towards Arthur.

The immense impact made him involuntarily retreat step by step.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…

In the next second, countless spiritual arrows shot out from behind the one-eyed men, raining down like arrows, covering the sky and shooting towards Arthur and the others who were advancing.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…

Immediately after, as if meteors were falling from the sky, countless fireballs flew directly from the mountain stronghold, smashing towards Arthur and the others.

The Spear Soldiers were fine, relying on their Ling Shi Fifth Order strength, they could still resist a little, at most getting injured.

But those Sword Soldiers were miserable, after all, the Shield Soldiers couldn't protect so many people.

Ah ah ah ah ah…

After several screams, five Sword Soldiers were struck and killed on the spot, and many Sword Soldiers were severely wounded.

"We can't push through at all."

Yang Ziying looked at this scene, her eyes filled with anxiety.

Even with Arthur holding the front, and Charlotte and Kuang Tie pushing from left and right, it was difficult to kill the one-eyed men in a single blow.

Because the one-eyed men not only had level six strength, but when they were injured, a black light would descend upon them.

Their injuries would recover as new, and their physical attributes would be greatly boosted.

The battle between the two sides fell into a stalemate.

But Arthur relied on his own defense, Kuang Tie relied on his pair of war hammers, and Charlotte relied on her movement technique and swordsmanship.

For a time, the three of them were not injured, but the Sword Soldiers behind them were either dead or wounded.

"Xiaoxue, what do we do now?"

Yang Ziying's face was full of helplessness, she asked.

Behind her were Kuang Tie, ten Shield Soldiers, and ten Sword Soldiers.

"If it really doesn't work, we can only retreat, what do you say, Zixi?"

Mu Linxue said helplessly.

Behind her were Arthur, Charlotte, ten Sword Soldiers, and ten Archer.

"Even if we kill the one-eyed men, other one-eyed men will continue to come forward. This mountain stronghold is easy to defend and difficult to attack; having more people won't solve the problem."

Lin Zixi looked at the mountain stronghold from afar, frowning.

Just as everyone was at a loss, a large group of people from a distance hurried towards their position.
