Blood on the Street

Above Ning Shi’s head, a thundercloud with a radius of three meters appeared and randomly released lightning toward the enemies on the ground.

Hilker, who rushed over in anger to fight Ning Shi, was affected by the thundercloud. He was paralyzed by the lightning in the thundercloud and his movements were much slower.

Ning Shi charged left and right within the knights’ formation as if he had entered an uninhabited land. Every time he swung his sword at them, knights would fly out.

At this moment, it was obvious how the street battle affected the knights’ formation. They stood in a dense formation and the evacuation was slow.

Affected by Ning Shi’s draconic might, the three-eyed lion’s movements were also a little stiff. It could not dodge Ning Shi’s sword at all.

A moment later, the extreme barbarians all rushed out from the light bomb formation. Their armor was full of holes and dents. Blood could be seen at the corners of their mouths. Their faces were pitch-black, and their helmets were scattered in the light bomb array.

Some of the barbarians even had their arms broken.

Obviously, the light bomb array had dealt them a great deal of damage, but the purple regeneration talent was really extraordinary.

The heavily injured extreme barbarians were still alive and kicking. They rushed into the knights’ formation while howling.

The barbarians’ bodies were flashing with red lights. They had activated the barbarian battle formation and received the blessing of the God of power, which further increased their strength.

All the barbarians activated their berserk mode without any hesitation. The damage was immediately increased to full value.

The golden mechs and the lightsabers used by the knights were all useless against the huge maces used by the barbarians. The barbarians swung their huge maces down and sent the knights flying away.

Blood splattered and corpses flew everywhere.

At this moment, it was clear that the heavy weapons dominated the battle.

The battlefield was thrown into chaos by the barbarians. The brutal melee began.

The Wild Lion Knight raised his long sword and stabbed it into the barbarian warrior’s body. The barbarian warrior did not resist at all, ignoring the long sword that pierced into his body. He directly raised the huge mace in his hand and smashed the Wild Lion Knight’s head into pieces.

In terms of close combat, the extreme barbarians had more than 30 points of physique. Combined with the regeneration talent, berserk skills and the barbarian battle formation as a bonus, they completely crushed the Wild Lion Knights.

As for the Wolf Knights, they could only hide behind and release their wind blades to play guerilla warfare. The Wolf Knights were originally light cavalry soldiers that specialized in speed, so it was really difficult for them to fight in the streets.

“Retreat! Everyone, scatter and retreat!”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Hilker directly shouted out the command to retreat.

If there was a green mountain, there would be firewood.

As long as they preserve their current strength, with the support of the Duohuang Chamber of Commerce, they could still defeat Ning Shi with additional manpower.

Hilker was still calm. He knew that today’s failure was because he had underestimated the enemy. He had underestimated the combat strength of the extreme barbarians and had chosen to fight in the streets.

If they were in the wild, the knights could use their speed to increase the distance between them. It would not be so easy for the extreme battle group to fight in close combat.

“Bloodthirst spell! Speed up the retreat!”

Hilker gave the correct command.

The Wolf Knights released their bloodthirst spell, and in an instant, all of the knights’ speed increased.

The barbarian warriors did not adapt to it at the first moment, and the mace fell into the air. After the knights dodged it, they no longer entangled themselves and began to retreat.

The time was right. After Ning Shi killed one of the knights, he shouted loudly, “The encirclement begins!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of gladiators rushed out from both sides of the house, and a portion of the gladiators appeared on the knights’ retreat path.

The knights were ambushed from all sides. Caught off guard, hundreds of knights were killed on the spot!

Piermont rode on the one-horned thunder rhinoceros and charged left and right. After knocking down a barbarian with his club, he roared angrily, “Hilker, you idiot, you forgot about the gladiators’ combat strength!”

Hilker finally panicked. He was afraid that His Majesty the King would punish him, but he forgot that Ning Shi had already occupied the gladiator arena. After obtaining the bloodline contract, he could command the gladiators to fight.

In the end, he was too confident about the battle strength of the Wild Lion Knights.

At this moment, he recalled His Majesty Joerger’s evaluation of him.

“Hilker’s cultivation talent is good, and he also has talent. However, he is too rigid and can’t understand the changes in the situation. In the end, it is difficult for him to take on a big responsibility.”

Because of His Majesty’s evaluation, Hilker was sent far away from the imperial capital and exiled to Duohuang.

He had never been convinced in his heart. He thought that His Majesty’s evaluation was wrong and that he was underappreciated.

Now, he finally understood that His Majesty’s words were true. For a moment, he was extremely dejected.

“Hilker, what are you standing there for! Let’s charge out together!”

Piermont woke up Hilker. The defeat was already set. The two of them mustered up all their strength and charged out of the street together.

Ning Shi had his eyes on the two of them. He did not want to let the tiger go back to the mountain.

A wave of blade light burst out, blocking the path of Hilker and Piermont. The two of them had no choice but to restrain their mounts and stop.

According to Ning Shi’s plan, 19 titled gladiators and Maku Gu would appear around them and start killing the two of them.

Hilker’s body was covered in golden light. After equipping himself with an ultra-high-level golden mech, he took a wave of attacks head-on and released his ultimate move, “Shockwave”.

Countless light waves spread out from his body. Wherever the light waves passed, deep ravines appeared on the streets, and all the houses were destroyed.

A titled gladiator could not dodge in time and was hit by the light waves. His body was immediately crushed into pieces and his regeneration talent could not save him.

Hilke’s ugly face revealed a ferocious smile. He was about to launch another attack, but he realized that his body was no longer under his control.

His vision was spinning and his head rolled to the ground.

He had overestimated the defense of the golden mech. He took Ning Shi’s full-force attack head-on, and the blade had already cut off his neck.

Seeing Hilker’s death, Piermont transformed into a 4-meter-tall demonic ape. With his increased strength, he tried to break out of the encirclement. However, he was entangled by Ning Shi and the titled gladiators kept attacking him from the side.

In the end, he was outnumbered. After the transformation ended, he was killed by Ning Shi with a single slash and died with a grievance.

The two leaders died in battle. The knights who had no will to fight completely lost their bearings. They threw away their helmets and armor and fled in all directions.

The barbarian warriors and gladiators chased after them, madly destroying the enemy’s remaining strength.

After another ten minutes of fighting, in the end, only a few hundred knights took advantage of the chaos to escape.

Thousands of corpses lay on the streets. Blood flowed like there was no end and dyed the black streets red.

Ning Shi took off his damaged armor and checked the system. The number of servants had dropped from 2000 to only 1851.

Although they had the upper hand in this battle, 149 people still died. The ones who died were mainly the reserved gladiators.

Three barbarian warriors had died. All of them had their heads cut off by the light sabers by accident.

With his regeneration talent, the casualties in this battle were relatively small. Ning Shi was very satisfied. The main reason was that his experience points had exploded to a substantial number.

The Wild Lion Knights and the Wolf Knights were both elites of the human empire. Each of them was at least Level 10. The minimum experience points received were 2000, while the maximum experience points received were 5000.

The total number of knights killed this time was close to 2700, with a total of 10,000,000 experience points.

Although most of them were killed by his servants and Ning Shi could only get 20% of the experience points, it was enough for him to level up.

[Bloodline warrior has leveled up to Level 11 (1,010,000/2,560,000). Physique +1, skill point +1, potential point +1.]

Physique increased by another point, reaching 40 points.

Every 10 points of physique was a checkpoint, and 40 points of physique felt more than twice as strong as 39 points!

[Physique reached 40 points, regeneration (purple) talent leveled up to undying (blue).]

[Undying (blue): Extremely fast recovery of injuries and physique, no weakness in the body, broken head, broken heart, can be recovered quickly. Remark: The undying effect can only be obtained when physique reaches 40 points or above.]

Ning Shi’s regeneration talent evolved into undying. He felt extremely safe.

“After a small-scale battle, my level increased by one level. The game system seems to be guiding me to build a faction and participate in the war.”

Ning Shi thought to himself.

“Unfortunately, the undying effect can not be shared with followers and servants because their physique is not enough.”

After accumulating 2 skill points, Ning Shi once again leveled up his basic swordsmanship.

[Basic swordsmanship leveled up to Level 9, special sword grandmaster leveled up to master of swordsmanship, swordsmanship damage +300%.]

[Faint sword intent leveled up to weak sword intent. Sword intent can leave the body and release sharp sword energy.]

Ning Shi planned to level up his swordsmanship all the time. When he was young, he read Master Gu Long’s novels and was especially envious of the Sword God’s imposing manner.

“Sword energy traverses 30,000 miles, and one sword light can freeze 19 prefectures.”

In order to display his strength advantage, Ning Shi could only use a heavy sword. The sword was the overlord of weapons and its power was not inferior.

As the saying goes, “One sword light could freeze 19 prefectures”, which was also fascinating.

After upgrading, Ning Shi stopped daydreaming and said to his subordinates.

“Those who still have battle strength, follow me and charge toward Bloodline Street!”

Bloodline Street was the headquarters of the Brad Bloodline Chamber of Commerce. After defeating the Wild Lion Knights, the other guards of the Bloodline Chamber of Commerce were not worth mentioning.

Ning Shi led his army of servants and easily defeated the remaining forces of the Bloodline Chamber of Commerce.

The ten streets ruled by the Bloodline Chamber of Commerce also fell into Ning Shi’s hands.

Along with Street No. 111 and Blood Crime Street, Ning Shi had already ruled 12 streets, becoming the largest force in Duohuang!

“Amy, from now on, the streets I rule will be the same as the Blood Crime Street. Fighting is strictly prohibited, we will continue to collect taxes and establish a new order.”

“The gladiator arena will no longer engage in gladiatorial activities. The most popular polo activities on the Moen Continent will be carried out in the future. The slave trade will be banned, and all slaves will be taken in. I will use them in the future.”

“You will select some smart and intelligent people and set up a City Hall to be responsible for the management of the streets. First, you need to do a good job in setting up trade rules and collecting taxes.”

“Also, help me find some people who are good at intelligence work.”

In this battle, Ningshi had taken down 11 streets in one go. It seemed very glorious, but he had also offended many big shots.

Having killed Anjelo, he had a direct grudge with His Majesty Joerger and the Grand Elder of the Moon Elves, Silverdew. They all wanted to take revenge on him.

After slaughtering the Wild Lion Knights and Wolf Knights, the two human empires would send troops to take revenge.

From the perspective of national interests, if Ning Shi wanted to establish order in Duohuang, the three empires would intervene.

“I need to establish an intelligence department as soon as possible to monitor the movements of the three empires.”

Ning Shi thought to himself.

“It’s very strange that the Forest Night Song Chamber of Commerce did not send out troops from the beginning to the end of this conflict.”

Ning Shi was somewhat unable to guess Snow Mist’s thoughts.

Although the forces of the three empires had been fighting endlessly in Duohuang among themselves, but when a foreign party wanted to establish order in Duohuang, they would come together to get rid of that party.

The Star Elf, Snow Mist, kept her distance after saying a few harsh words at the beginning.

What an unfathomable attitude.

“Boss, the President of the Forest Night Song Chamber of Commerce, Lord Snow Mist, is here to pay a visit.”

Speak of the devil.

“Invite her in!”
