Chapter 1168: Chapter 769, woo-hoo, I’m back!
Chapter 1168: Chapter 769, woo-hoo, I’m back!
The loud chime of the bell struck his heart like hammer blows.
He thanked his lucky stars that he didn’t have a heart condition; otherwise, he might have scared himself to death before the battle even began.
Tap, tap, tap!
The Bound Spirit Guardians came running up and, upon seeing Fang Hao standing in front of the lord’s mansion, they directly reported, “My lord, the Dragon Clan’s army has arrived.”
As Fang Hao walked towards the East City wall, he instructed, “Inform each wall sector to deploy defenses according to the plan, and do not panic.”
“Yes,” the messengers dispersed in all directions.
Fang Hao then hastened his steps up the eastern side of the city wall.
Looking out,
he saw an army of irregularly dressed troops marching without any order, appearing at the edge of his vision.
Orcs and Trolls made up the majority, thronging in hordes, ceaselessly moving forward.
Above the infantry flew dragons, which circled without stopping while maintaining their speed.
The dragons wore various forms of Dragon-shaped Armor, and there were no fewer than a hundred of them.
There were even more than the army Beata had brought last time.
Under everyone’s gaze,
the Dragon Clan’s army didn’t immediately launch an attack on the city.
Instead, they began to regroup at a distance.
It wasn’t exactly setting up camp; they just sat on the ground and began to eat the food they had brought, along with some water.
After all, they had been traveling day and night and had finally arrived under the city. They needed to replenish their strength.
Regardless of the conscripted cannon fodder,
Even the dragons needed rest.
To maintain good strength before the battle.
“There are quite a few enemy heroes; they don’t seem easy to deal with,” Demitrija whispered.
Fang Hao also noticed.
Although he did not spot the Dragon Queen, he could see some individuals with dragon horns moving about in the army.
These were all heroes from the Dragon Clan, definitely of at least orange rank or higher.
“Prepare for battle, let’s proceed with the plan.”
…
In the Mount Dragon Peak region,
Aerygon looked at his own lord’s mansion and couldn’t help but shed tears.
Whimpering!
“I’ve finally come back… sniff…” Aerygon covered his face and cried bitterly.
Only those who have suffered can appreciate how wonderful their previous life had been.
Actually, being the second-best in the world wasn’t so bad; why bother fighting for the top spot?
Sniff…
Aerygon crouched on the ground as tears uncontrollably streamed down.
“My lord, have you returned?”
“City Lord, is it you?”
“My lord? What’s wrong with you?”
At this moment, figures began to gather from all directions, including residents and armed guards.
Aerygon’s territory had been occupied by Fang Hao’s choice.
No governor had been appointed, and it remained in a custodial state.
The city’s residents and guards were still originally Aerygon’s subordinates.
Aerygon wiped his tears and straightened his back.
Now that he was back, he was still the master of this city.
“Yes, I’m back!”
No sooner had he spoken than he was taken aback, “What’s happened to you all? Has the city been breached?”
Both residents and guards seemed in poor condition, gaunt and wounded, many bearing obvious injuries.
Looking around again, especially at his own lord’s mansion which was now deserted, it seemed as though it had been looted.
“It was done by the Dragon Clan…” said a young guard.
“Shush, don’t talk nonsense,” someone interrupted, then said, “My lord, let’s talk inside. There have been some changes during your absence.”
Aerygon frowned, “Is it that serious?”
“It’s better to be cautious; a lot of people have died recently.”
Several people entered the room and recounted the developments during his absence.
Aerygon had not been back, but the city still stood, and the military force was quite substantial.
Transmigrators might have had the desire, but they lacked the capability to breach the city.
Being second in the world was not just four characters.
It was a ranking given by the system, based on military and financial strength.
But if transmigrators couldn’t break in, that didn’t mean the Dragon Clan couldn’t.
The city had been forcibly plundered by the Dragon Clan a few days ago.
Treasures and valuable items had been looted.
City residents had been taken to Mount Dragon Peak to labor in batches.
Their injuries had occurred while they were forced to work.
“My lord, now that you’re back, what should we do?” someone asked.
Aerygon thought deeply, “I’ll figure something out; for now, just do as the Dragon Clan demands until I can make arrangements.”
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.
“Alright!”
Having a leader to depend on, the people agreed and left.
They shared the news of the return of the City Lord with others.
Ding!
Not long after the guards left,
the Book of City Lord emitted a crisp notification through the Alliance channel.
“@Aerygon, ?”
“@Aerygon, has the Alliance Hierarch come back to life?”
“Is that true? Wasn’t the hierarch killed by Fang Hao? How can he be alive, surely he hasn’t become a wraith?”
“Hierarch not dead, can we change the situation, the Dragon Clan treats us as slaves!”
“Hierarch, the brothers with whom we founded the Alliance, many have died, hung on wooden poles by the Dragon Clan…”
Aerygon’s avatar lit up and quickly caught the attention of the members.
A barrage of @ towards him, with people also venting about recent misfortunes.
Previously, when Aerygon was around, the Dragon Temple Holy Army actually did quite well; although they received orders from the Dragon Clan, there was a limit.
Not like now, taking what they want, killing at whim.
Aerygon closed his eyes and reflected, recalling the conversation he had had with Fang Hao.
