Lowell spoke rapidly: "We must set off immediately and eliminate Su Bai! Otherwise, it will be difficult to go out and take action when the special disaster strikes tomorrow."

"Okay! Let's go right away!"

Park Yong-joon walked to the entrance of the main tent and shouted, "All you lone wolves, assemble! There's a piece of fat meat waiting for us to eat!"

Upon hearing the sound, the other fifteen lone wolves emerged from their respective barracks and gathered at the entrance of the main tent.

"What easy prey? Is there yet another reckless lord who dares to provoke our Lone Wolf Alliance?"

"Although our branch is small, everyone there is an elite, capable of taking on ten thousand men each."

"Huh? A new guy has arrived, and he's American. Now our branch has seventeen lone wolves."

The group of lone wolves chattered amongst themselves, offering their opinions.

Park Yong-joon cleared his throat, a hint of arrogance flashing in his eyes.

"Indeed! There is a Dragon Kingdom lord named Su Bai who dares to provoke the Lone Wolf Alliance!"

"We must move out immediately, conquer their territory, and annihilate their entire force!"

"In this battle, we must demonstrate the might of the Lone Wolf Alliance!"

"We need to show those lords that even without territory and troops, the Lone Wolf's individual combat strength is enough to dominate the Land of Redemption."

"One day, we will make all the lords submit to the Lone Wolf Alliance, and those who disobey will be killed."

The group of lone wolves nodded in unison, their faces contorted with bloodlust, and shouted, "Agreed! Set off immediately and kill this Su Bai!"

Only one person frowned and said, "Su Bai? Could it be the one who topped the list of newly promoted lords?"

“Exactly!” Park Yong-joon turned his head, a hint of displeasure on his face: “What? Zhao Ganwu? You disagree? Don’t forget, although you are a Chinese, you are also a member of the Lone Wolf Alliance!”

“That’s right, Zhao Ganwu. Even though we are Chinese, from the moment we lost our lord status and joined the Lone Wolf Alliance, we have long been free from the control of the country. Killing a Chinese we don’t know is no big deal,” one of the Chinese Lone Wolves said.

"No! I will not allow you to hurt Su Bai!"

Zhao Ganwu's expression was resolute and unwavering: "If it weren't for the lifespan reward brought by Su Bai, my father would have already passed away. He has been kind to me, and I cannot harm him, nor will I allow you to harm him!"

"You dare disobey my orders?" Park Yong-joon sneered. "Don't forget, disobeying the Alliance's will means death!"

“Park Yong-joon! Do you believe I’ll report you to the Lone Wolf Alliance headquarters? Hmph, last time, you didn’t hand over the looted supplies; you pocketed them all. I saw it all clearly!” Zhao Ganwu said coldly.

"You're asking for it!"

Park Yong-joon clenched his fists, his eyes filled with murderous intent: "I've disliked you for a long time. Now, you have no choice but to die! I will report to my superiors that Zhao Ganwu, the Lone Wolf of the Dragon Kingdom, died in an accident while on a mission!"

He raised his right hand and stretched it towards the sky, whereupon a black battle axe weighing a thousand pounds materialized out of thin air.

His arm muscles bulged, and he chopped forward with force.

A crescent-shaped black shockwave roared toward Zhao Ganwu.

Zhao Ganwu braced himself with both hands, conjuring a shield of flames.

"boom!"

The shield of fire shattered.

A black shockwave exploded in Zhao Ganwu's chest.

He spat out a mouthful of blood and his body flew five meters away.

“My level is seven levels higher than yours. What do you have to fight me with?” Park Yong-joon sneered, his eyes full of contempt.

He turned around and looked around at everyone: "You have no objections to killing Zhao Ganwu, right?"

The group of lone wolves, including another lone wolf from the Dragon Kingdom, all nodded, showing no pity whatsoever.

"good!"

Park Yong-joon laughed wildly: "Today, I will clear the door for the Lone Wolf Alliance!"

He lunged forward, his black battle axe slashing down.

Zhao Ganwu's chest was pierced by the battle axe, and blood gushed out.

But a relieved smile appeared on his face.

Su Bai.

You should have received the private message I sent you.

The Lone Wolf Alliance is full of vicious and ruthless people, and you, having just become the lord, are absolutely no match for them.

I hope my warning will help you escape as soon as possible.

The only thing I can do is buy you more time to escape.

Am I going to die today?

But I don't regret it at all.

If people don't know how to repay kindness, aren't they even worse than animals?

My mother gave birth to me, and a month later, she ran away.

My dad raised me all by himself, working hard for most of his life, and he couldn't even bear to smoke a cigarette that cost ten yuan.

Two years ago, I successfully awakened and became a lord.

My dad can finally escape the construction site and enjoy the rest of his life.

But his mother contracted a terminal illness and was on the verge of death.

He is my only family, and I really can't lose him.

Just when I was in despair, heavenly sounds rang out from the sky.

The nation's fortunes and rewards are beginning to arrive.

The terminal illness that even top-tier hospitals couldn't cure miraculously healed on its own.

You extended my father's life by twenty years.

If I were to stand by and watch them kill you without offering any help, I would never have peace of mind for the rest of my life.

It's just that good people don't live long...

Why……

"Damn you Chinese beasts, this is the price you pay for defying me!"

Park Yong-joon drew his battle axe and kicked it out.

Zhao Ganwu was covered in blood. His body slammed against the wall behind him and fell helplessly to the ground. His pupils were dilated, and he had lost all signs of life.

"Well done! There's absolutely no need to show mercy when dealing with these Chinese!" Lowell laughed heartily, "Next up is Su Bai's death day!"

“Do you know the exact coordinates of Su Bai’s territory? We can use teleportation to get there instantly,” Park Yong-joon said.

“Su Bai’s territory is not far from mine. We can teleport to my territory first! In that case, we can definitely cut off Su Bai’s head within an hour!” Luo Wei said quickly without hesitation.

"Then let's set off immediately and kill Su Bai as quickly as possible."

Park Yong-joon waved his hand, activating the teleportation array.

The remaining fourteen lone wolves drew their weapons and entered the teleportation array.

The next moment.

A flash of light.

The sixteen people inside the military camp vanished without a trace.

...

...

A desolate wilderness.

Su Bai is leading the insect swarm to wipe out the beast horde and local forces.

Just then, the chat page started flashing.

[Notification: Lord Su Bai, you have received a message from an unknown number. Please check it!]

"Could it be another spam message?"

He opened it casually.

Take a closer look.

[Zhao Ganwu: I am a member of the Lone Wolf Alliance branch, guided by an American named Lowell. There are a total of sixteen lone wolves who will attack your territory today.]

Branch leader Park Yong-joon, level 36, is a powerful fighter. You have just become a lord and are no match for these desperate criminals. Run for your life!

Finally, thank you for the national reward you brought. Otherwise, my father would have passed away long ago. It's just a pity that I can't thank you in person...

I'm sorry, I can't stop them. You must survive!!!

"Lowell!"

"This guy dares to come back to his death again, he's utterly absurd!"

"They're just some desperate outlaws from the Lone Wolf Alliance. With 60,000 insect swarms under my command, why would I be afraid?"

"Park Yong-joon, a level 36 lone wolf, although he is a high level, can he really withstand the onslaught of the swarm?"

Su Bai remained calm and let out a soft chuckle.

According to the curriculum of the school and military region, these lone wolves, having forged the stones of their territory and absorbed the essence of various military branches, possess extremely formidable individual combat strength.

After a territory reaches level 20, the Lord's Mark is enhanced in all aspects, and the Lord's personal strength will increase by leaps and bounds.

But compared to these lone wolves, they are far from being comparable.

In fact, Lone Wolf's overall strength is much greater than that of heroes of the same level.

It is not uncommon for one person to destroy an entire army.

However, Su Bai firmly believed that the powerful interstellar Zerg were far beyond the reach of ordinary races.

The Queen of Blades is not someone that can be compared to ordinary heroes.

Su Bai was confident that he could eliminate all sixteen lone wolves, including Lowell.

In particular, after dominating the desolate wilderness, he received a medal—King of the Wilderness.

When the swarm is located in a desolate wilderness area, its combat power increases by 50%.

"We won't lose this war on home soil! Since these desperados dare to invade, we'll leave them all here!"

Su Bai's gaze was intense, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

However, this Zhao Ganwu actually offered a kind reminder.

Although he was a member of the Lone Wolf Alliance, he was willing to risk betraying the organization by giving himself a warning in advance.

This clearly shows that he is a Chinese person who values ​​loyalty and righteousness.

[Su Bai: Thanks for the reminder! By the way, did you manage to get away with sending me a private message? If we ever have the chance to meet, we can thank each other!]

The next second.

A line of red system information popped up in front of me.

[Notification: Lone Wolf Zhao Ganwu is dead! Message failed to send!]

"What!"

How could he have died?

"How could sending a private message risk your life and fortune?"

Su Bai's expression changed, and his brows furrowed into a deep frown.

Take a closer look.

On the chat page, Zhao Ganwu's name has turned gray, a sign of death.

Although they had never met, Su Bai could tell from the previous message that this was a man of great loyalty and righteousness.

While he brought national fortune and rewards, not all Chinese people will feel grateful.

Some even believe that this is something Su Bai should naturally do.

People like Zhao Ganwu, who are willing to take risks to issue warnings, are rare.

"Was Zhao Ganwu killed because he sent a private message and was discovered by the Lone Wolf Alliance?"

"No, it's a virtual system page that only I can see. How could I possibly die from it?"

Su Bai looked at the previous chat message again.

I'm sorry, I can't stop them. You must survive!!!

With a loud bang.

Blood rushed to my head instantly, like a thunderclap exploding above my head.

A guess flashed through Su Bai's mind.

Zhao Ganwu believed that he had just become a lord and was no match for this group of desperados.

So, he was killed in order to buy me time to escape.

"Lone Wolf Alliance, Lowell, Park Yong-joon."

"If Zhao Ganwu truly lost his life for my sake, I will never forgive you!"

"Dare to kill Chinese people, and I will make you pay in blood!"

Su Bai clenched his fists, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

He quickly returned to his territory and began to reorganize his army.

...

...

Ten minutes later.

The friends page started flashing.

[An Ruoyun: This is bad! The Lone Wolf Alliance is here, and it looks like they're heading straight for your territory. What should we do?]

[Su Bai: Don't panic. In my eyes, these people are nothing but grasshoppers in autumn; they won't last long. They've just delivered themselves to my doorstep, so I'll kill them all at once.]

[An Ruoyun: It is said that the individual combat strength of the Lone Wolves is even stronger than that of the Heroes. There are more than a dozen of them, so they may not be easy to deal with.]

[Su Bai: No problem! Even if the King of Heaven himself came, I'd still fight him! But just to be safe, you should lead your soldiers and teleport to my territory now, lest these lone wolves see that you are my subordinate lord and become malicious, turning around and attacking you.]

An Ruoyun: Mm!

Su Bai stood within the territory and closed the chat window.

Immediately afterwards, a line of system information popped up in front of me.

[Prompt: Your vassal lord, An Ruoyun, requests to be teleported to your territory. Do you agree?]

agree!

With a flash of light, An Ruoyun appeared before them, leading more than three thousand merfolk soldiers.

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Stay in the back and watch the show! Today I'm going to make sure these bastards never leave this desolate place!"

Su Bai's gaze was intense, revealing a hint of killing intent.

Close your eyes and connect with the gaze of the Ohmu floating in mid-air.

You can clearly see sixteen figures on the horizon, holding various weapons, rushing forward at high speed.

"Sixteen lone wolves, the message from Zhao Ganwu is absolutely correct!"

"Zhao Ganwu? Who is he?"

An Ruoyun looked puzzled, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

“He was a kind person I never met, but now he’s dead.” Su Bai’s voice was low and somber.

“Good people don’t live long, and this principle applies everywhere.” An Ruoyun said, word by word, “But I’m very fortunate that you are a good person, otherwise I would be dead by now.”

"You mean I won't live long?" Su Bai gave a wry smile.

“No, no, no, you are different from others! With such a powerful insectoid race, no one can kill you.” An Ruoyun said solemnly, “Besides, if anyone really wants to kill you, they will have to step over my dead body first.”

"Why? Is it simply because of our subordinate relationship?" Su Bai asked.

"Over the past year, I've encountered all sorts of lords, but you alone have given me a very special feeling. Therefore, I will protect you without hesitation, even though my strength is still relatively weak..."

An Ruoyun looked at Su Bai with great seriousness.

A scene involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

Su Bai led the insect swarm, like a divine army descending from the sky, and crushed the savage army in one fell swoop.

They pulled her back from a certain death situation.

This kindness must be repaid.
