Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead - Chapter 1151 - Chapter 1151: Chapter 752, Preparing to Leave
Chapter 1151: Chapter 752, Preparing to Leave
In the dim room,
Fang Hao and Rolana were discussing matters concerning Eternal Night City.
Mid-conversation, the chime from the Sound-transmitting Shell suddenly interrupted.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing him pause mid-sentence, Rolana asked curiously.
Without responding, Fang Hao simply took a shell out of his storage space and held it to his ear.
He immediately heard the voice of the ancient blood servant say, “My lord, the Sea City has been attacked.”
Both of them were startled by this statement.
Fang Hao immediately asked, “Who? Is there danger?”
After a brief pause, the voice on the other end replied, “It’s the Sea Tribe, but the enemy has been repelled.”
“Okay, I’m coming over now.”
After putting away the Sound-transmitting Shell, Fang Hao said apologetically, “Something has come up with the ship!”
“I’ll go with you to check it out, I don’t have anything else tonight anyway,” Rolana said directly.
The two of them quickly changed into their gear.
After leaving the room, they called for two heroes, Spencer and Beiyehu.
Fang Hao did not call the others, as it was night and the situation with the enemy was unclear.
As for Demitrija, he wasn’t in the city at the time.
Instead, he had returned to the Lizardmen.
Over at the Lizardmen’s place.
Once everything was ready, they activated the transport beam and disappeared from their original spot.
…
When they reappeared,
The figures of the four emerged from the beam.
On the dim deck, there was not a shred of light.
The surroundings were silent, only the air still filled with the smell of gunpowder.
They saw no attacking Sea Tribe nor any attacks landing on the ship.
Only in the dimness, could one faintly see the refracting moonlight on the moving skeletal skulls.
At that moment, the shape of the ancient blood servant leaped up from the sea and landed on the deck with a bang.
He approached Fang Hao and said, “My lord!”
“Okay, what’s the situation?”
“The soldiers of the Sea Tribe attempted to attack the ship but have been repelled,” the ancient blood servant said.
Fang Hao nodded and continued to ask, “How many enemies were there and what was the battle situation?”
“Not many attacked—about a thousand. After leaving behind a few, they directly retreated. Currently, it’s unclear if they intend to attack again.”
This rock formation was still relatively hidden.
Furthermore, being near the Thornfin Sea, it was rare for anyone to pass by here.
Yet, it was discovered by the Sea Tribe.
It seemed that the attack on Giant Claw Island had enraged the Sea Tribe.
However, they clearly underestimated the strength here at the Sea City.
Only a few of the skeletons were fixing the ship outside.
A thousand could not even get close to the Sea City.
At that moment, on the sea to the left, orange flames lit up abruptly, and several wooden ships caught fire, quickly approaching this side.
Fang Hao was stunned, “What tactic is this, trying to set fire to the ship?”
“Have the soldiers sink those fire ships,” Fang Hao said.
With a rush of noise,
Crowds of Skeleton Wyrm Guardians swiftly swam towards the fire ships.
Underneath the fire ships, there were Sea Tribe soldiers as well.
Upon contact, an immediate melee ensued.
At the same time, on another part of the sea surface, countless Sea Tribes charged forward again, holding various tools, trying to approach the giant ship.
But they were discovered by the undead underwater in the middle of their approach.
After a brief fight, the Sea Tribe attempting a sneak attack was repelled, and the other Sea Tribe also began retreating, with hundreds of fire ships having their bottoms holed and sinking into the sea.
As the flames extinguished, the sea’s surface was engulfed in darkness once again.
Fang Hao looked towards the direction where the fire ships had sunk.
In his mind, he suspected that this was another transmigrator’s scheme.
Trying to set fire to the ship, yet clearly unsuitable for this world.
The ocean surface returned to calm.
Fang Hao turned to Beiyehu, “Did the Sea Tribe, swim all the way over here?”
Beiyehu, originally from the Sea Tribe but from a pirate background,
understood this aspect.
He immediately said, “Impossible!”
“How so?”
“Just like humans traveling, normally we rely on walking, but for long distances, carts and horses are needed to lead the way. The same applies to the Sea Tribe, they couldn’t have swum directly from the Rainbow Islands here,” Beiyehu explained.
“That means, nearby in the darkness, there are ships from the Sea Tribe.”
“Definitely.”
Fang Hao nodded, continuing to speak, “Spencer!”
“My lord, your command.”
“Find the enemy’s ships and sink them all.”
“Understood, my lord.”
Spencer took the order, leaped from the ship and transformed into a dragon form, disappearing into the night sky.
…
At this time, the Sea Tribe was somewhat baffled.
The intelligence mentioned only a thousand undead, right?
Why then upon fighting, the undead seemed endless, and there were also those capable of firing cannons.
Dozens of Sea Tribe generals stood on the deck, watching the distant sinking fire ships.
Their expressions slightly grim.
“Send a message to King, the intelligence was very inaccurate. It’s not just a thousand undead, but possibly tens of thousands, even more,” one Sea Tribe general said.
Intelligence can be inaccurate, but it shouldn’t be this far off.
Thousands and tens of thousands are not the same at all.
“What do we do now? It’s clearly impossible to sink that ship, and this area belongs to the Thornfin Sea. The smell of blood might attract those merfolk,” another general asked.
“It might be better to retreat first. Lingering here isn’t solving anything,”
“Indeed.”
The leader of the fishmen deeply looked at the distance.
Everyone wanted to retreat, and the army’s morale had reached its lowest point.
Continuing to force an attack would hardly be effective.
Simply, he also said, “Retreat, let’s also fall back.”
Just as everyone was speaking.
A sudden whooshing sound came from above.
Suddenly looking up, a huge shadow was seen falling face-on.
Roar!
A crimson flame swept across the body of the ship.
Along the way, generals and soldiers turned to ash in the flames, the sails burned out, and the deck erupted into a large fire.
The orange flames lit up the entire night sky.
Only under this bright night sky could everyone clearly see the figure flying past.
A dragon with the appearance of a dried corpse circled above the fleet.
With each circle, it unleashed Dragon Breath toward the below.
One by one, the ships were ignited, and the soldiers of the Sea Tribe leapt into the sea shouting loudly to avoid it.
The fire grew larger and larger, brightly illuminating the entire sea area.
…
Fang Hao watched as the fire sank ship after ship.
The soldiers of the Sea Tribe, like dumplings, jumped into the water.
Splash!
The Ancient Blood Guard leapt from the water onto the deck, “My lord, the people of the Sea Tribe are moving south, do we need to pursue?”
“No need, gather the forces, and direct the ships toward the Sea Tribe’s area, let’s also visit the islands of the Sea Tribe,” Fang Hao continued to command.
“Yes, my lord.”
The Ancient Blood Guard leapt back into the sea to begin the arrangements.
The sea troops, part advancing with the ships, while more troops entered the ship cabins.
After preparations were ready.
The vessel began adjusting its angle, steering out of the rocky area, heading toward the direction of the Rainbow Islands.
Only when the sea ship officially entered the normal route.
Did Fang Hao instruct a few sentences, leaving Beiyehu and Spencer behind, taking Rolana back to the main city.
…
Ah—ah!
The shouting of the maids outside the window woke Fang Hao from his sleep.
He had returned last night after midnight.
It seemed like a blink of an eye had brought the dawn.
“You’re awake!” Next to him, Rolana, wearing a purple nightgown, lay on a nearby couch, her fair and translucent legs bent, holding a comic book in her hands.
“Were you up all night?”
“Should I have spent the whole night with my eyes open, letting you hold me?” Rolana casually answered.
“Ah, you’re going back today, right? I’ll have people prepare some gifts now, and you can take them straight back,” Fang Hao said while getting dressed.
Rolana glanced over and said, “Aren’t you going to attack the Sea Tribe? Don’t you need me to stay and help you? It doesn’t matter if I leave in a few days.”
Fang Hao had considered this yesterday.
But the strength of the Sea Tribe was just so-so.
Compared to the Federation constantly provoking, they were actually not much of a threat.
The most dangerous enemy was still the Dragon Clan.
It was good for Rolana to leave during this time, she could go and come back early.
It was also a good opportunity to get in touch with her demigod mother-in-law.
“The Sea Tribe alone, no need for you to take action, I can handle it myself, rather, it’s better for you to go and return early,” Fang Hao said.
“Alright, got it.”
The two got dressed and left the room together.
…
In the Lord’s Mansion hall.
The weather was still nice, and the maids also got up very early.
Hearing that Rolana was leaving, Eira, Anjia, and some of the maids all came to see her off.
During this period of interaction, the ladies had changed their opinions of Rolana significantly.
Especially with the construction of the amusement park, they really depended on Rolana.
Otherwise, it would not have been easy to build.
“Why are you leaving so suddenly?”
“Did Fang Hao bully you?”
“We’ll miss you when you leave.”
“Someone is about to be promoted to hero, the second one to ride the rollercoaster, you’ll miss out if you leave now.”
Rolana, listening to the maids chattering, also showed a smile.
She remembered these little bunnies were all quite scared of her.
When did she become so popular, that so many people would come to persuade her to stay as she was leaving?
“I’m just going home for a bit, I’ll be back in a few days, and I’ll bring gifts from there,” Rolana said smilingly.
“Bats?”
“Bring back a few Rotten Corpse heads, let’s make a haunted house.”
“No way, those things attract a lot of bugs.”
“Isn’t Nelson a scholar in preservation? Just treat them a bit.”
Hearing several women chatting enthusiastically next to him.
Fang Hao also smiled heartily, hoping that Rolana would consider this place her home.
He couldn’t join in the women’s topics.
What he needed to do was to prepare ample gifts for Rolana.
To let her take them back.
Outside, Skeletons moved in and out.
They carefully stacked various gift boxes and brocades on a wooden table in the center.
There were elaborately carved gold and silver jewelry, gift boxes with hollow designs of best-selling cosmetics, and exquisite fabrics from the Bone Textile Store.
All in all, for this demigod mother – Rolana, Fang Hao had prepared some of the finest things he could offer.
At that moment, footsteps sounded.
Doujin walked in from outside.
Holding a redwood-colored wooden box, “My lord, I’ve already exchanged the necessary amount from the Alliance.”
The wooden box opened, revealing a full load of Warfire Cards.
