Fierce Battle on the Novro Continent

"The people in the Holy City still need to be purged. Of the 200,000 residents, few are willing to truly fight for me. Why should I take it?" Nian Hao said these words to Ryan in an understatement.

After hearing these words, Ryan's face became horrified. Because he remembered the blood tower that was being rebuilt after Nian Hao knocked down the lighthouse. That was a tower with walls smeared with human blood. Previously, as soon as Nian Hao entered the Holy City, he had already carried out a large-scale massacre in the Holy City. This cruel method has shocked the world. And now, wouldn't it be so easy to talk about 200,000 residents.

Ryan didn't dare to think about it anymore. He knelt down and didn't dare to move, and a murderous intention slowly came out of him.

"Do you think I'm cruel?" Nian Hao suddenly said: "Do you want to kill me even if your soul is shattered to prevent all living beings from being destroyed?"

These two sentences hit Ryan's mind instantly, and the murderous aura in Ryan's body suddenly dispersed. He quickly begged: "Lord City Lord, I will always be loyal to you."

"My blood tower still needs the blood of many people." Nian Hao said: "Whether you want to use the blood of civilians or other people, it depends on you."

After that, Nian Hao dropped these two sentences and left.

Nian Hao's intention was obvious, that is, to ask Ryan to find all the hidden figures in the Holy City. The current situation in the Holy City no longer allows for other voices to exist.

Ryan knew that Nian Hao had become the absolute ruler of the Holy City at this moment, and his words were full of authority and majesty. Ryan couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in his heart, but he understood better that at this time, he had no choice but to obey.

After Nian Hao left, Lane immediately took action, knowing that he was facing a difficult task. There are many people hidden in the holy city for thousands of years, and there are countless secrets. Ryan understood that what he had to do was to find these people and these things and hand them over to Nian Hao.

Ryan has been running the House of Grace for more than ten years, and there are still many people who are truly loyal to him. Ryan immediately transferred a group of people from among them to form a capable team to investigate the residents inside and outside the Holy City one by one. At the same time, he secretly contacted the elders in the Holy City who were unknown to everyone, trying to get clues from them. In order to intimidate those potential enemies, Ryan revealed a group of elders hiding in the darkness. Their fate was all miserable.

Under Ryan's iron fist, the atmosphere inside and outside the Holy City gradually became tense. Residents are worried about themselves, fearing that they will be targeted for purges. And this fear is exactly the effect Ryan wants. He knew that only by making these people fearful could they completely succumb to Nian Hao's rule.

However, as the investigation deepened, Ryan discovered an unexpected secret. It turned out that there was a secret Presbyterian Church hidden in the Holy City, and they actually tried to join forces to overthrow Nian Hao's rule. This news shocked Ryan, and he immediately reported the situation to Nian Hao.

When Nian Hao heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He sneered and said: "It seems that I have been too kind in these years and let them mistakenly think that there is an opportunity." After saying that, Nian Hao thought for a while and immediately told Ryan to issue a reward, as long as any information was hidden among the people. The elder informant allows him to obtain the right to live in the holy city after the renovation of the holy city and regain the original benefits.

I thought that this kind of unattractive recruitment would have no effect. But what Ryan didn't expect was that the residents of the Holy City had lived too rotten in recent years and had long lost their original aspirations. Their desire for a happy life had turned into a source of greed. With the help of these people, within a few days, Ryan found dozens of elders hidden in the Holy City. Of course, Lane, with the help of his men, wiped out all these resistance forces. Their fate is of course self-evident, and Ryan dedicated their blood to the Blood Tower to show his loyalty to Nian Hao.

After this purge, within just one week, the situation in the Holy City finally stabilized temporarily. However, Nian Hao knew that this was just a temporary peace. Behind this bustling city, there are countless undercurrents. And he is the absolute overlord in this undercurrent. As long as anyone dares to challenge his authority, he will ruthlessly eradicate them.

As for Ryan, after completing this purge, his status has risen a lot in Nian Hao's heart. He knew that he had become Nian Hao's loyal lackey, and no matter what difficulties he faced in the future, he would not be able to get rid of this identity. However, he also had to admit that in this cruel world, only by following Nian Hao could he find a chance of survival.

However, within this week, Nian Hao was struggling to find a way to break the isolation of the Holy City. But at this time, news of the war continued to spread.

The Blackstone Alliance completely crushed the Fengyue Empire's troops with its absolute technological power. At this moment, Winfred has captured half of the Fengyue Empire and even besieged the capital of the Fengyue Empire. At the same time, Winfred also learned of Nian Hao's plight through Jonathan's contact. Winfred specially dispatched a team of technicians to the Holy City, hoping to use the power of technology to break down the barriers that separate the Holy City.

As for the Bergji Empire, it has been completely occupied by the Magir Empire. The reinforcements from the Ziyuan Dynasty also rushed over, and they launched a landing battle at Bayang Port. It is a pity that the magicians of the Magill Empire have deployed many magic arrays at the port, making it impossible for the troops of the Ziyuan Dynasty to enter.

What's even worse is that Jonathan has never been able to find Yao Luoxuan's whereabouts.

Just when Nian Hao was at his wits' end, the Holy City received another piece of bad news, that is, food was about to run out. There are 200,000 residents, 50,000 Tianqin troops, and 10,000 goblins, adding up to a population of 260,000. The amount of food consumed every day is staggering. Although before, Amal carried out ‘investment’ plans in neighboring countries and received a lot of funding. But these reserves can't last much time at all.

The news of food shortage shrouded Nian Hao's mind like a dark cloud. He knew that this would undoubtedly be a disaster for the residents inside and outside the city, but what he was more worried about was that this situation would make the Holy City look exhausted in front of everyone at this moment. In order to avoid this situation, Nian Hao immediately took measures to stabilize the situation.

Nian Hao began to strictly control the food supply inside and outside the city to ensure the operation of the army. Although this makes life more difficult for ordinary people, Nian Hao firmly believes that stabilizing social order is the most important thing under such circumstances. He knew that once residents inside and outside the city felt panic, riots were likely to occur, further exacerbating the situation. Nian Hao also strengthened the shock to the people in the city. Through a series of punishments, he fully demonstrated his 'tyrant' attitude.
