Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

The retreating troops were stopped by a squadron of cavalry.

Leading them was an orange hero, flanked by an exceptionally well-armed cavalry.

This caused the woman from Lionback Mountain to wear a disheartened look.

She bitterly cursed the universe for its injustice, allowing the beast Li Zhenhu to recruit an orange hero.

As she contemplated how to charge and break through...

From behind the city gates, nearly four to five hundred infantry armed with giant swords rushed out.

They quickly encircled them.

This made her even more anxious, regretting her hesitation. It seemed like today might end in total annihilation.

At her most frustrated...

The heavy sword infantry opened up another pathway.

A young man walked through the crowd, leading several heroes.

He stepped forward.

The woman's eyes widened in surprise. Behind the young man were several high-level heroes.

Was this fellow some sort of hero wholesale market?

"Who are you? Where are Li Zhenhu and his men?" The woman from Lionback Mountain asked first.

She had just scanned the field.

She didn't see any of the bandits she knew of, including the Tyrant and Greedy Wolf. They were not here.

Moreover, these men did not look like bandits.

If bandits had this kind of equipment, they would already have attacked the nearby cities.

...

As the woman from Lionback Mountain was questioning...

Fang Hao was also sizing up the other party.

She was quite small, crouched on the back of a lion. The lion's golden fur could almost completely cover her.

With slightly dark skin, large eyes, and a rather pretty face, she gave off the impression of being not yet fully grown-up.

A single plait hung down behind her head and she was dressed in a black top, revealing her slim waist.

"Shouldn't you explain your intentions first? It would make things safer for both you and your men," Fang Hao said, looking at her squarely.

This woman appeared to have a special ability.

Being able to command nearly a hundred fearsome beasts to act in unison with her was a strange sight indeed.

The woman scanned the tense atmosphere all around then speculated the identities of these people.

There was a high chance that they were not bandits after all.

She scoffed and said, "I'm here to eliminate bandits."

Eliminate bandits?

With just these beasts and about fifty local militiamen?

They needed to know that there used to be more than three thousand bandits here before.

Her group of fewer than two hundred, comprising mostly beasts, couldn't possibly lay siege to a city.

How was she going to eliminate the bandits?

"All right, who are you people?" the woman asked in return.

Fang Hao replied directly, "If what you're saying is true, then our goals are similar. It's just that I got here a bit earlier and have already taken command of this place."

"You've taken over? Since when?"

"Erm... This morning, I guess."

The woman glanced back at her scout heroes.

The scout heroes nodded in response.

After thinking about it carefully, she found it quite plausible.

Last night, this place was attacked by Undead. This kid must have made use of the situation. The Undead retreated at dawn and he took over the city.

"Where's Li Zhenhu?" the woman continued to ask.

"Why, are you looking for him?"

"Alive or dead, he took my friend. I need to find him," she said, her tone filled with rage.

"Li Zhenhu ran away, but their boss and second-in-command are still alive. You can ask them," Fang Hao replied.

The woman cast a sidelong glance, exchanged a few words with her heroes.

She puffed her chest out, saying, "Then take me to see them."

Fang Hao nodded, "Let your men wait outside the city. Come in with me."

"Agreed."

The troops returned to the mountain stronghold.

The beasts and local militiamen rested on a piece of open ground outside the city.

It seemed that these beasts only listened to the woman; all the other militiamen kept a respectful distance.

People and beasts were separated into two distinct areas.

...

The blockade stakes were pulled away.

The woman followed Fang Hao and his men through the city gates under the watchful eyes of a few soldiers.

Now, she was even more curious about Fang Hao's background.

She hadn't heard of any transmigrator with this kind of power in the area.

It seemed that the real masters always kept a low profile. This man might be even more formidable than the Fang Hao mentioned in the channels.

After all, she had seen quite a few orange heroes.

The woman stared at Fang Hao while Anjia, on the side, stared back at her.

"Blackskin, are those beasts your pets?"

The woman was taken aback and looked towards the beast-eared woman who had spoken. Experience more content on empire

She was a blue hero.

"You're the blackskin! Look at your own skin before talking about mine!"

Anjia was indignant, "Of course you're a bit darker, I'm wheat-colored."

"You're even darker."

"Lorrey, tell us who's darker," Anjia asked, turning to Lorrey who was enjoying the scene.

Lorrey's large eyes whirled around.

Pointing at the strange woman, she clearly stated, "She's darker, Anjia is wheat-colored, our Lord has said so."

"What the hell, are you guys ganging up to mess with me?" The woman got a little upset.

They walked deeper into the city.

Women and children crouched in the shade, eating and chatting.

They arrived at an open space in the southeast corner.

A few soldiers were guarding a pile of iron cages.

The cages were filled with prisoners.

The woman instantly recognized a few of them as the former bandits.

They were present during the attack on her territory.

Soon, she noticed Tyrant and Greedy Wolf, who were confined separately.

The moment she saw the two men, rage surged in her eyes.

Drawing the iron sword from her waist, she drove it towards Tyrant's chest through a gap in the cage.
