As expected of... the city lord.
For a moment, the Titan City high-ranking officials, who were following orders, secretly exchanged glances and focused their attention on the young girl.
The fact that they could create a child out of thin air without anyone noticing was an eye-opener for them.
I learned something new!
At the same time, they were secretly alarmed, thinking of the Sage's Knights Alliance, which originated from Middle-earth.
Are all the high-ranking officials in Middle-earth acting so recklessly?
...
There are many things to consider before setting out on the expedition: selecting elite troops, choosing their equipment, gathering the wolf packs for the winter, and choosing those to guard Titan City, all of which will take a lot of time.
If it weren't for the fact that Ba'e and others were well-known and had obvious markings for various forces, making their identities easily recognized during battles, Xiao Han would have wanted to bring these high-level combatants along when he went to conquer the wasteland.
In comparison, mid-level combatants like Blood Raven, Black Raven, and Hammer have a better camouflage effect. In addition, the purpose of this trip does not require intense battles, but rather focuses on flexible mobility, making them a better choice.
Of course, in Xiao Han's mind, Titan City had to retain its top combat power to deal with the allied forces of the three kingdoms.
First, to prevent the allied forces of the three kingdoms from attacking, it would be embarrassing if they had no capable warriors to rely on when they were at the gates. Second, while the high-level combat forces such as Ba E were engaged in direct combat, Xiao Han used Baidu Maps to launch a siege from the outside and take advantage of the situation to attack the weak points of the allied forces of the three kingdoms.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion from Titan City and the demon race, the necromancer frantically built up an army, summoning thousands of skeleton soldiers from the abyss. He reluctantly took out a bone ring and gave it to Xiao Han, saying it would be of great use.
Red Maple Garden.
A familiar tea table, a task handed over to his subordinates, and a generous sum of compensation was given to the deceased's family. The city lord was naturally much more relaxed.
On one side was the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, her petite figure dressed in an elegant dress, revealing her fair and tender long legs. Her twin ponytails, tied with black silk, cascaded down her pert buttocks, and her delicate and lovely face resembled an enticing green apple.
She was biting into an artificially ripened strawberry, her lips stained with strawberry juice, looking moist and pink, making one want to kiss her sweet fragrance.
"Minnie, are the strawberries I grew delicious?"
Xiao Han picked up a basket of large strawberries. Since they were freshly picked, perhaps due to the effect of magic, they emitted a wonderful fruity fragrance. At a glance, they looked tender, delicious, and vibrant.
Of course, after glancing at his own withered strawberry seedlings and then at Minnie's lush and verdant greenhouse, he didn't hesitate to claim it for himself.
"Mmm, delicious."
The little girl beamed with joy, revealing a silly and goofy smile.
This is nothing like the shrewd and capable Minise, who was a highly intelligent person who was good at scheming against others and a ruthless hero who inherited her father's wishes!
However, it cannot be denied that Xiao Han relaxed his guard a little when facing this innocent little girl, but he also felt quite regretful and nostalgic.
Minnie has been transformed into a little girl who loves snacks, loves to sleep in, and has a healing smile; the image of her as a clever and witty girl has completely collapsed.
Back then, Xiao Han had worried that when he left the City Lord's Mansion, Pete would happen to sneak in and kill the defenseless Minnie.
So he put Minnie on and, upon noticing the breach in the city wall, rushed over, but he was still a step too late.
Watching the little girl eat strawberries with an innocent expression, Xiao Han felt a strange mix of emotions.
...
"Damn it, you are faithless! How dare you break your oath before the eyes of the god of justice! You are destined to die a horrible death!"
Inside the magnificent hall, a tall man in a formal suit clutched a wound on his abdomen, from which blood flowed continuously.
Around him lay corpses, severed limbs, and scattered food items such as pastries, drinks, and beef slices.
He glared at the sword-wielding figure in front of him, his eyes filled with anger, resentment, shock, and a hint of fear.
But the young swordsman smiled slightly, and with a flash of sword light, he severed a section of the man's arm, which was stained with blood and splattered outwards.
"Ahh!"
The city lord, who had ruled Giant City for over a decade, roared, suppressing the pain of his torn arm, and charged forward, ready to fight to the death.
But the latter kicked out with astonishing force, sending the city lord flying and crashing heavily into a wall, where he became embedded.
The swordsman, now a high-ranking military officer, stared at the old city lord and said coldly, "A mine containing mithril is not something a giant city like yours can swallow."
"Cough cough," the old city lord leaned against the wall, blood flowing all over the ground, his hands hanging down, but his blood-stained face was very calm.
"The people of the Duchy of Bailan are still so ruthless. It's a pity that you haven't been an officer for long and don't know who's behind me."
Upon hearing this, the swordsman stepped forward, pursed his thin lips, and asked, "Which marquis? Or a grand duke? Could it be that he would stand up for you?"
What do you think?
"Just a boring trick by nobles."
"Hehe, you understand too. With such a layer of interests involved, it's no wonder that the former Golden Family had to break away and establish Constantinople."
The old city lord smiled coldly, staring at the other party, his heart burning with rage.
This guy, acting on orders from the forces behind him, slaughtered his entire family, leaving no one alive.
At this moment, the swordsman's smile vanished. He toyed with a piece of top-grade blue-gold soul gold in his hand and sneered, "If my men hadn't investigated, I would have almost been fooled by you. This is not a depleted mithril mine; it is clearly a soul gold mine."
