Chapter 468: Slaughter and Sacrifice

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

They had only scratched the surface. They couldn’t imagine how powerful Su Wan exactly was.

‘Is there really anyone who can match such a Lord?’

The top Lords revered by other Lords paled in comparison to Su Wan. The Lords who harbored hostility towards Su Wan quietly dismissed any thoughts of opposing her.

Su Wan didn’t have much opinion about the other Lord’s reaction toward her. She had grown accustomed to such discussions.

As the Fire Elemental Lord returned to the Fire Elemental Plane, Su Wan looked at the battlefield and frowned.

“Gather people to clean up the battlefield and throw all the corpses into the spatial rift to the north.”

Although the Fire Elemental Lord had good intentions, he had burned all the corpses.

Wrapped in blood-red bandages, Andy immediately nodded. He turned around and rallied troops to clean up the corpses.

The Undead Army was particularly sensitive to corpses and souls. They were able to unleash tremendous destructive power during battles.

After collecting seven or eight corpses, they flapped their wings and flew towards the spatial rift leading to the Death Swamp. They threw the corpses there. The swamp accepted all corpses.

The only regret was that over sixty percent of the bodies had been burned to ashes, leaving very little behind.

Su Wan watched the corpses being thrown into the Death Swamp and sensed the changes in it.

In order to activate the special land given by the God of Dwarves and raise it to Level 4, a massive number of corpses needed to be sacrificed.

According to the current state of progress, that would be difficult to achieve even if they had a million corpses.

Su Wan also felt a bit helpless. It was important to upgrade the swamp, but the requirements were too high.

After the initial fierce battle, there was some resistance. That decreased the number of corpses Su Wan needed to upgrade the swamp.

1 need to find a way to instigate conflicts among the planes and increase the intensity of the battle. Otherwise, if things continue like this, the planes won’t be willing to send troops to fight, and 1 won’t be able to upgrade the Death Swamp.’

‘But if I send troops to conquer their targets right now, it is possible that someone else will take advantage and reap the benefits in the end. I need to be present when that happens.’

The rulers of the planes were clever. They refused to leave their own planes to engage in a war because they were aware of the risks. They knew that the gains from such skirmishes were not worth it.

However, if the ruler of the planes found a way to be strong outside their planes, they would definitely take the plunge.

‘Once we capture the Tasiria Plane, we can let the Dark Withered Tree enter the putrid swamp. I have many heroes under my control, each with different abilities. It will all work out!’

The Dark Withered Tree, in particular, was a unique entity. It was a tree but had a level of intelligence to understand and initiate things.

However, the Dark Withered Tree’s upgrade was just too slow. If it could be leveled up into something legendary, it would be better.

‘While using the Dark Withered Tree to lure enemies, I also need to plan for it to level up to the legendary level.’

After cleaning up the battlefield, Lion City rejoiced again.

This was the second wave of attacks launched by Archduke Blood Fury. Both times, he had failed, and Lion City had won!

People felt as though Su Wan was a god’s gift to them.

In the evening, after enjoying a sumptuous dinner, Su Wan decided to take a warm bath when Angel rushed to find her.

“What’s wrong?” Su Wan asked.

“Just received news that Archduke Blood Fury has launched a massacre in several provinces of the Tasiria Kingdom. He is targeting the noble families who are still loyal to the Tasirian Royal Family.” Princess Angel was distraught. Her fists were clenched in frustration.

Hundreds of large and small nobles were attacked, and their families were slaughtered. Over a million people died at the traitor’s hands. The blood even stained the moat of the Tasiria Kingdom!

She couldn’t protect her people and the vassals.

Angel gritted her teeth. She was enraged.

Su Wan looked at the princess. She felt that the archduke’s senseless killings had a deeper meaning to it. He wasn’t just killing the noble families to stop them from being loyal to the royal families. It was a sacrifice!

Certain evil spells required human sacrifices.

Archduke Blood Fury was trying to gain control over everything. Once Lion City fell, he would be the king of the Tasiria Plane.

No one in their right mind would indiscriminately slaughter their own people unless…

He had banded together with the Abyssal Evil God before. His actions this time pointed to something similar.

“Our undercover agents have also speculated about this, but we’re not certain yet.” Angel clenched her fist. Her eyes were filled with fury.

After two wars, Su Wan’s prestige in Lion City had reached its peak. Without her approval, even Princess Angel didn’t issue commands.

Su Wan returned to the grand Lion Hall with the princess. More than thirty high-ranking officers of Lion City were present. They jointly ruled the city.

Everyone stood up and placed their fists on their chest in respect when Su Wan walked in. Su Wan gestured for them to take their seats.

Princess Angel sat to her left. The solemn and anxious atmosphere eased a little with Su Wan’s presence.

“What does our intelligence say?” Su Wan asked.

“Lord Su Wan, under the pretext of pacifying the rebellion and eliminating the royal family, Archduke Blood Fury has carried out massacres against nobles and commoners, with casualties exceeding one million.” A young hero, dressed in white armor, stood up.

“They have transported all the bodies to the province where Archduke Blood Fury stays at the moment..”
