Episode 10 Baruch Chapter 3 Expansion of Power

In the evening of the fifth day of the first month of the Yulan Calendar 10010, the sky and earth were gray and cool, and there was still snow that hadn’t melted. However, at this moment, the city of ‘Tul City’ was plunged into a terrible depression.

Tuer city walls, the city master anxiously look out towards the city, outside the city blurred a lot of silhouettes, at the moment is also not too clear to see.

“Just how many people have come to this Black Earth City?” City Lord ‘Drell’ barked at his men.

“Lord City Lord, the patrolling soldiers immediately came to report when they saw an army coming over, and they didn’t see clearly how many people there were. But the burly man at the head seems to be one of the five legendary War Gods of Black Earth City.” The henchman next to him counted somewhat nervously.

“Five Great War Gods?” The City Lord was anxious, “Saying that a ninth level powerhouse is a ninth level powerhouse? I even said I was a Saint Domain powerhouse! One by one, be careful and make sure to hold firm for me.”

“Yes, Lord City Lord.” That underling officer answered the order.

Toure City, facing the enemy’s attack, didn’t dare to engage on the plains at all, and only dared to rely on the city to hold on. After all, it was a little less difficult to defend the city.

……

The second Anke indifferently looked at the city in the distance, this time the Black Tulle City moved very greatly, only one of the five high establishment brigades stayed behind, the other four brigades were led by Anke, Black Shark, Boon, and Gates, and each attacked the four nearest surrounding cities.

“Halt!” Anke raised his right hand and let out a loud shout.

Immediately, all 1,800 soldiers stopped, and all of them looked adoringly at the tallest figure in the center in front of them. The five Barker brothers of Black Earth City, who trained their soldiers with clear rewards and punishments, usually hung out with the soldiers as well.

When the soldiers trained, they also trained.

Soldiers are running with weights, but the five Barker brothers are lifting hundreds of thousands of pounds of boulders in training. The soldiers of Black Earth City naturally worshipped their leader more and more.

“Dre, listen to me.” Anke let out a furious shout.

The voice that contained the Immortal Fighting Qi. It was as if loud thunder echoed in Tul City, the hearts of Tul City’s soldiers trembled, such a loud voice alone made their morale plummet, the legend seemed to be true. Is it possible for them to resist such a strong man?

The city lord ‘Dele’ was also a bit alarmed in his heart, but he didn’t want to abandon his lair.

“If you want to say something, say it quickly, don’t waste time.” Drell summoned up all his courage and shouted, but his voice was quite loud at the city walls, and by the time it reached Anke’s side, it was already very small. There was no deterrent at all.

Anke continued to shout like thunder, “Drell, you only need to offer up the city of Tul. I can spare your life, otherwise …… this axe of mine will not show any mercy.” When Anke said that, quite a few of some of the soldiers in Tul City already had dissenting thoughts.

Because, long before Black Earth City attacked, quite a few people in Tul City had secretly defected to Black Earth City.

“Oh, you still want to die?” Anke’s voice spread to every soldier in Tul City.

Black Earth City ‘Drell’ gritted his teeth. Angrily, he looked at the Black Earth City side of the men in the distance.

“Kill!” A loud cry abruptly resounded through the heavens and earth.

On the walls of Black Earth City, a large number of soldiers were startled, only to hear the countless warriors on the other side of the ground below the city roar, “Kill!” “Kill!” …… One by one, they all raised their shields and madly charged towards Tulle City. The knights caused by that roar caused many of the soldiers of Tul City to panic.

“Archers! Shoot for me, shoot them to death!” That City Lord ‘Drell’ face turned red as he roared loudly.

The many archers on the city walls immediately pulled up the bows and arrows in their hands and shot towards the enemies rushing over in the distance. The first collective shooting. Most of the sharp arrows hit the shields, a few wounded the Black Earth City soldiers, and three unlucky soldiers were shot to death.

“Shoot them to death for me.” Drell roared angrily.

But before the archers could shoot a second time. Anke shook off the army behind him for more than a hundred meters and rushed to the city gates by himself. Only to see him roar, pull out the terrifyingly huge axe behind him, and slash at the city gate.

“Boom!”

The entire city wall shook for a moment, while the gates of Tul City were all of a sudden cleaved and directly collapsed and shattered apart, with a large amount of broken pieces being cleaved and splattered in all directions. Anke was a rank nine warrior even without transforming, and it was not difficult to split the gates of a small city like Black Earth City.

“The city gate was split open!”

“The God of War has killed his way in!”

……

All sorts of yelling and screaming resounded amongst the soldiers of Tul City, and even the city lord ‘Dele”s face turned white when he realized that the city gate had been split open.

“Whew!” With a swing of the huge axe, the surrounding soldiers were immediately split apart, their bodies directly bursting apart, blood and flesh flying about. The surrounding Tul City Land soldiers were scared and immediately retreated, Anke, whose body was shrouded in Immortal Fighting Qi, was like a demon god.

Anke waved that terrifying giant axe and roared, “Those who block me, die!”

That big axe waved up like a wind wheel, but this ‘wind wheel’ was a meat grinder, anyone who was scraped by this ‘wind wheel’ would have their body cut apart, at first, the soldiers of Tul City were still impacted, but later, no one dared to block this Demon God.

Just a moment later, the soldiers on the Black Earth City side also rushed in from the city gates at this time.

“We surrender, we surrender.”

As the first sound of surrender rang out, the sound of surrender rang out one after another, and when Anke swung his blood-stained giant axe and rushed to the city wall, the soldiers on the city wall surprisingly all put down their weapons, while that city lord ‘Dele’ was curled up on the ground, and next to him, a few officers were waiting for Anke.

“My lord, I am Fuld.” One of the officers even said respectfully.

“Oh, you are Foord.”

Anke knew very well that this Foord was one of the surrendering officers. This battle hadn’t even started yet, and quite a few people on the other side had secretly surrendered. Adding the fact that there were the five Barker brothers on Black Earth City’s side, how could this battle not be won?

War, is a war of men, and the deciding factor is men.

When the gap between each other’s strength is not big, maybe the scheme is still effective. But when the strength gap is too big, such as Anke alone can sweep the city of Tur. In such a battle, there are no variables at all, and there is no suspense in winning.

The Year of Magnolia

On the fifth day of the New Year’s month Black Earth City started the war.

But when the sixth day of the first lunar month rolled around, Linley’s side had five cities with the population under their control. If you included the countryside towns under their jurisdiction and so on, the population added up to nearly three million. According to the rules of the Territory of Chaos, it was generally only when one occupied a county or city that one was qualified to be called a principality.

The five cities on Linley’s side were all small cities. The cities only held tens of thousands of people. County cities, on the other hand, could hold hundreds of thousands of people.

……

After the end of this blitzkrieg, Linley’s side temporarily stopped continuing their attacks, and instead quickly began to integrate their armies, the original five brigades of Black Earth City were known as the ‘First Division Regiment’, and were the most central one, and the four divisions of the other four cities and pools had their pay raised as well. It was equivalent to about two-thirds of the First Division.

Civilian taxes were lowered and generally reduced by most.

Each division regiment was 9,000 men, in the Yulan Continent. Generally large divisions could reach around 20,000 men. However, in the Territory of Chaos, battles were generally more fragmented, so Linley’s side still opted for a low establishment. With five high establishment brigades as a division.

The five divisions were quickly integrated. Training.

Some of the surrounding cities also felt threatened, but they knew that Black Earth City’s side was powerful, and surprisingly, during the process of Black Earth City’s side’s integration and training, one of the cities came forward to surrender. The reason was – their original city lord had fled that city with his huge fortune and guards.

……

The two of them, Buck and Sessler, came together and tilted their heads as they looked up at Mount Blackwool.

“Buck.” Sessler suddenly spoke.

Barker also looked at Sessler, who said, “Black Shark also reached level nine on his way to the Domain of Chaos, and all five of you brothers now possess the strength of the Holy Domain. I’m also close to breaking through in the past year or two. You said that the conquest has you five brothers. I’m assisting, and most importantly, we also have Linley and his two powerful magical beasts. Such top end strength is enough for us to build a kingdom. Or even an empire!”

“Mr. Sessler, what do you mean?” Buck’s eyes lit up.

Sessler said seriously, “Barker, the six major powers on the continent today, other than the O’Brien Empire and the Yulan Empire, the other ones, the Luo Empire, the Rheinland Empire, the Holy Alliance, and the Dark Alliance, do not have any God-ranked experts.”

Barker nodded in agreement.

“Among them, the Roo Empire, the Rhine Empire, there aren’t even experts in those two empires that are on par with Hedson. And we not only have Linley, but also Bebe.” Sessler was confident, “For an empire to be built, the most important thing is the topmost ground power. With strong power at the top, there is hope for building an empire.”

Barker was also a bit excited.

“Mr. Sessler, what you mean is that we build an empire together?” Buck looked at Sessler.

Sessler laughed, “This is just a conception of mine. Our goal is to eliminate the Illuminati’s power in the Domain of Chaos, and the Illuminati now occupies nearly a third of the territory of the Domain of Chaos, in order to eliminate them, we must have quite a bit of territory as well. When we exterminate them and occupy their territory …… we will occupy most of the area of the entire Collar of Chaos. By then, we will have resolved the Dark Church side. The Collar of Chaos, is ours.”

Barker felt his heartbeat accelerate.

The Collar of Chaos, this region that had always been in chaos, in terms of area alone, although it was smaller than the O’Brien Empire. However, it was catching up to the Roao Empire and the Rheinland Empire.

“Building an empire ……” Barker’s eyes glowed.

“Haha, no hurry, step by step. With our strength, so many people join hands to occupy a dozen or so principalities in the Domain of Chaos and build up a kingdom. It should still be relatively certain.” Sessler said confidently.

Barker even nodded his head.

Luo Ao Empire, Rhine Empire, how many Saint Domain experts did they have? These two empires, they didn’t have the depth of the O’Brien Empire or the Yulan Empire, and they didn’t have the Illuminati or the Dark Clerics who could descend with the help of angels.

For example, in the Luo Ao Empire, it would be extraordinary for there to be more than ten Saint realm experts.

On Linley’s side, there were five immortal warriors, especially waiting for Barker to reach the Holy Realm in their human form. That was the true strength of a Saint realm undead warrior. These five united, in addition to the even more terrifying Linley, Bebe …… such strength, even the Illuminati are not afraid.

What was wrong with building an empire?

“Occupying the entire Domain of Chaos is difficult. After all, it’s complicated.” Sessler smiled, “But I’m still confident.” Sessler shook his head and looked towards the mountains of Blackwool Mountain, where Linley was.

Sessler said slowly, “I have a goal in mind, one day, we will build a powerful empire, and as for Linley …… his role in our empire is like that of the God of Wushu in the O’Brien Empire.”

“Martial God?” Buck was surprised.

Sessler smiled and nodded.

A huge empire with top experts who could deter other forces could only stand on its own. Such as the Luo Ao Empire and the Rhine Empire, in reality, these two empires were dependent on the Yulan Empire just because they didn’t have a top power.

And that empire that Sessler dreamed of, the top existence was Linley.

As the Martial God sat in the O’Brien Empire, as the High Priestess sat in the Yulan Empire …… the future Linley, similarly sat in that future empire! Of course the current Linley wasn’t that amazing yet.

“At the age of twenty-eight, he’s reached this terrifying realm now. Such a character, what level will he reach in the future, can you imagine?” Sessler glanced at Barker with a smile.

Barker nodded.

Linley’s power was indeed something the five Barker brothers looked up to.

“Let’s go, let’s go meet Linley.” Sessler laughed.

Sessler, an old man who had lived for over eight hundred years, now had such a thought, and was becoming more and more passionate. To have another empire come out of the entire Yulan Continent, what an exciting thing that was.
