Chapter 160: The First Step of an All-Out Counterattack

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Three days passed very quickly. Currently, in Lecter City’s Lecter Square, twenty captured assassins who had secretly infiltrated the city were being executed.

Following the executioner’s order, the executioner’s hanging sharp blade quickly chopped off the head of the person that was kneeling in front of everyone.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere. The crowds of people who were standing below the stage were clapping and cheering.

Such a bloody scene did not surprise these people at all.

On the contrary, the hearts of these people were currently in high spirits.

Mike saw that among these people, there were even old people, pregnant women, and children. Right now, these people in Lecter City were completely contaminated by the anger they felt towards the enemy in front of them.

They scrambled to be the first to be at Lecter Square for an unbridled revelry.

In Mike’s heart, he felt very uncomfortable with the environment in front of him.

But in his heart, he had already had a premonition that a brand new empire was about to be established.

The era that belonged to the Empire was about to be drowned in the long river of history along with the twenty severed heads.

Suddenly, a loud shout was heard.

“Citizens! Soldiers!”

Everyone immediately looked towards the execution stage and saw a tall, magnificently dressed man with a crown on his head, appeared in front of everyone.

This man had a shameless appearance and looked down at everyone below the stage arrogantly.

He looked as if he could easily swallow the entire world with his eyes.

This person was the leader of the Lieluo Army, Rowe.

When the crowd saw Rowe’s magnificent appearance, they once again let out a series of explosive shouts.

After that, Rowe spoke proudly to the crowd.

“We’ve just executed 20 assassins who were sent by the Empire. Today, it will be our Lieluo Army’s all-out counterattack against the Empire!”

When everyone heard this, their emotions started to soar once again.

“The Lieluo Army is unstoppable!”

Countless roars resounded throughout the whole of Lecter City.

To the casual observer, everyone here would look like they had gone mad.

Rowe looked down at his subjects. When he saw the scene before him, Rowe once again threw his head back and laughed out loud.

“Soldiers, listen up!”

When the thousands of soldiers on their horses heard Rowe’s call, they all exploded once again.

“Yes!”

The voices of thousands of people echoed throughout the whole of Lecter City, appearing unusually grand.

Then, Rowe once again addressed the crowd.

“Follow me on the expedition towards the Empire! Let’s advance!”

“Yes!”

…

Not far from the Empire’s center, in the Miracle Forest, a group of powerful troops led by Rowe and Romon was currently entrenched here.

According to the information provided by Higgis, the main force in the Empire’s center was only left with less than twenty thousand people.

The remaining troops that the Empire had withdrawn after the other day were also rushing towards the east.

Their goal was to take down the East Immortal Sect as soon as possible.

After a few nights of discussion, Rowe and Romon had made a selfish decision.

That decision was to not inform Mike of the Empire’s plan to attack the East Immortal Sect.

Of course, they had other considerations as well.

At the moment, Rowe and Romon were only leading a Nameless Army of two thousand people as they circled the city gates and shouted.

“Sano, you old dog! Do you dare to come out and fight? Have the people of your Empire forgotten how we defeated you last time? Don’t you want revenge? Or are you just afraid?”

“Sano, you old dog! Come out and die! We can still give you a quick death!”

“Sano, you and your bunch of trash magic soldiers of the Empire should just come out and die!”

The soldiers at the frontlines of the Lieluo Army were causing a non-stop commotion.

When the soldiers at the city gates at the center of the Empire saw this scene, they were all thrown into confusion.

“Quick! Go and inform Lord Sano!”

“Tell him that the Lieluo tribesmen have already started attacking!”

“Yes!”

Not long after, Sano appeared at the city gates at the center of the Empire.

“Rowe, how dare you!”

Sano cursed at Rowe.

Rowe listened to his cursing, but he did not intend to argue with Sano. So, he simply sneered and spoke to him.

“Sano, if you are still a hero, then come out and fight us!”

Although Sano was arrogant, he was not completely brainless. When he heard Rowe’s words, he would not easily accept the challenge.

Furthermore, even though Rowe had only brought two thousand men, the two thousand Nameless troops of the Lieluo Army were enough to defend against an army of a thousand men.

Suddenly, a plan appeared in Sano’s mind. He immediately called for the subordinate beside him and gave him his orders.

“Head immediately to Norman Forest and the Blessed Longevity Camp to seek help. Send as many men as you can! Do you hear me?”

“Yes!”

“Set off immediately!”

Following that, the soldier led a small team of about twenty people to split into two groups and set off from the two secret gates in the center of the Empire.

They walked towards the Norman Forest and the Blessed Longevity Campsite respectively.

The guard at the city gates once again opened his mouth to ask.

“Lord Sano, what should we do next? Should we just let them continue to curse like this?”

When Sano heard the guard say this, he laughed coldly and said, “Let them be happy for a few days first. When our reinforcements arrive, I don’t believe that a two thousand man army can resist my army.”

Below the city gates, when Rowe and Romon saw that Sano had left, they smiled smugly.

“It looks like Sano has taken the bait!”

Rowe smiled as he spoke to Romon.

“That’s right, that’s right. I was worried that he would find a loophole in our plan. It looks like what Higgis said was right!”

Romon said, “Sano’s personality still makes him make such judgments!”

“Sano! The Empire!”

A red light flashed in Rowe’s eyes, and he spoke angrily again.

“Just wait for the end!”

…

Three days later, a small team secretly returned from the east-west secret door.

These people did not stop as they rushed towards the imperial palace in the center of the Empire.

When these people arrived in front of Sano, they all revealed pained expressions.

“Lord Sano, something…. Something bad has happened!”
