Abyss Domination

Time is fast approaching August.

The terraced fields in the second phase of Modo City are about to be reclaimed. After deploying a batch of materials, the golem factory then produced five clay golems and one stone golem. These golems have been put into the construction as labor force, and they can easily carry heavy materials, which is more than several times more efficient than manpower. The Fallen Witch and Gloria are currently engaged in intense research work. Sauron left a space beacon on the third floor of the Abyss, and they are planning to join forces to build a cross-plane portal to the Abyss during this time.

The orders of the Northland Council have increased again.

Modo City doesn't know what to do, so far it has ordered three batches of heavy two-handed weapons.

………………

this day.

With the coming of autumn and summer, there was heavy rain everywhere, and it seemed that a flood had occurred in the central part of the continent. The lizard people followed the flood and expanded their territory again, and many flooded areas were occupied by them. However, the south is still relatively calm, except for the occasional trace of the fallen, that is, some time ago, someone saw the legendary Lich.

Liches rarely walk the world.

As the top undead beings, they have endless years to squander. The lich's favorite thing is to stay in their cemetery lair for research.

but!

It seems that a lich has appeared in the south recently, and this matter has attracted great attention from the paladins.

To the south of the Windspear Hills, there is a dense forest. This is the territory of the Isabella family, and it is a place for the noble children to hunt when they are bored.

The heavy rain had just stopped not long ago.

There was a group of people advancing along the road. They were well-equipped and tough-looking, and some of their entourages were even equipped with military crossbows and other weapons. They could be judged to be private soldiers of nobles at a glance.

My lord the baron.

A middle-aged man dressed as a knight came to the center of the team on horseback. Said in a deep voice: After passing the mountain in front, we will arrive at our territory. Recently, a group of snake bandits appeared on the Windspear Hills.

Let's not rest here anymore.

Soon, there was a reply from the team, and a tired young nobleman said, Sir Slack can do what he sees.

The middle-aged knight bowed slightly and nodded, but there was a hint of disdain on his expression.

It was only two days' journey, and he was already so tired, compared to the old baron who killed the ogre with his bare hands. The new lord is really bad. The fancy swordsmanship was purely to attract those noble ladies. As a knight, he almost never saw the baron do the most basic exercise.

The team moves on.

These guards are all veterans who have been on the battlefield, even if they encounter adventurers one-on-one, they will not lose the wind in the slightest.

Sir Slack was not very worried about bandits daring to attack them, but out of the habit of being cautious, he still sent out his cronies to check the situation ahead.

But.

More than ten minutes passed, and still no one came back.

Sir Slack felt a little bad in his heart, and he could not help but quietly put his hand on the hilt of his sword. Then he rode his horse towards the front of the team.

It seemed very quiet all around.

Suddenly, a cold light shot out from the woods on the side, and then a scream was heard, and a guard fell down directly clutching his throat.

careful!

There are archers in ambush here!

There was a burst of exclamation, and then people fell to the ground one after another. From the dense forest, black shadows rushed out. They held various weapons, but the most striking thing was their skin. These people have silver scales on their skin and wear various armors. Surrounded the team from both sides.

Snake man!

Damn it! It's a snake bandit!

The team was a little flustered at once, but quickly assembled under Sir Slack's order, and guarded in the center of the team.

Recently, there have been many traces of snake people in the south.

Especially in the Windspear Hills area, many caravans have been attacked by snakemen. Many nobles knew that there was a group of wandering snake-men robbers, and even Baron Narrows died at the hands of the snake-men. It was precisely because of this that their group brought so many guards, but after seeing the number of enemies clearly, Sir Slack still gasped, feeling a shadow cast over his heart.

The number of this group of snake men and bandits has grown again.

Apart from the snake man, there were many other human bandits who attacked them, at least twice as many as them.

poisonous!

A guard with a darkened face seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and said in a trembling voice: The enemy's weapon is poisonous!... Be careful!...

A round of shooting strikes.

Sir Slack got off his horse and took up a shield to block in front of him. The guards around him also raised their shields one after another, and some with crossbow arrows were shooting at each other.

People kept falling to the ground.

The robbers in front of them rushed over in a swarm, and the losses on both sides were not small. Sir Slack carefully watched the snakemen in front of him. Most of the human bandits were weak, and the real danger was these snakemen. If they could kill the enemy leader, maybe the gang of bandits would be self-defeating.

found it!

Ser Slark soon spotted the serpent chief who was leading the battle.

With a roar, he suddenly raised the shield in front of his chest, directly knocked away the crowd in front of him, and then launched a charge and slashed at the leader of the snake man with his sword.

As a high-ranking knight, he has the courage and strength to go straight to the enemy leader in a melee.

A gloomy light flashed across!

Sir Slack's figure suddenly froze in place, and two figures suddenly appeared in his line of sight, followed by a dagger piercing his throat.

rogue.

Two high-ranking rogues.

In addition to this group of robbers, there are more dangerous enemies hidden.

Darkness fell.

The figure of Sir Slack fell to the ground slowly. Before he died, he seemed to hear the baron begging for mercy, and the voice seemed to be that of a woman.

………………

The snake bandits reappeared.

The news seemed to take wings and quickly spread to nearby places.

It's just that it wasn't the merchants who were attacked this time, but the rulers of the Windspear territory, the nobles of the Isabella family. The cause of the incident seems to be that the lord here encircled and suppressed snake-man bandits, and crucified one of the leaders, in order to deter those lawless bandits. But it never occurred to him that the snake bandits would take revenge on the ruler of the Windspear Hills and kill several nobles directly.

A web of intrigue has begun to unwind.

After the first step of the plan is completed, the next step is Adele - Isabella's stage. Sauron's shadow shrouded this land, and it was unknown whether it was a terrible disaster or the prosperity and hope of the second Modo City.

But one thing without a doubt.

Any good beginning is full of blood and killing, as if only embracing war can usher in peace!
