In the end, he was struck and killed by lightning that veered off a bend...
Witnessing this scene, Xiao Han sighed sadly.
Just as he was about to burn the opponent to death, lightning stole his life.
Even God wants you dead, which shows that this person brought this upon himself and deserves to die.
"Your Excellency is wise and brave, and you have single-handedly fought against the allied forces of the three kingdoms. Your subordinate admires you."
Khrushchev, who was serving nearby, presented the Scarecrow card and the Bone Ring with a fawning expression, and casually offered a compliment.
As the deputy prime minister who was promoted by Xiao Han in the cabinet, and also the encyclopedia of the North, he was specifically tasked with opposing Minnie's faction and curbing their power, so naturally he had to cling to this powerful figure.
Not to mention, the city lord did not go insane. On the contrary, he carried out a crazy plan, not only eliminating the demon king's backup plan in Silverlight City, but also turning the three-nation allied forces with unknown purposes into a disorganized mess. While he was amazed and shocked, he also felt a strange excitement.
Although this will bring retaliation from the three duchies, the city lord is a master strategist and will surely frame someone, with Constantinople being a perfect scapegoat.
At this moment, the dark clouds dispersed, and Blood Raven gave the order. Using scarecrows to clear the way, the wolf riders charged forward. The defeated allied forces were either killed or fled. Even those who resisted were immediately overwhelmed by spiked clubs and became food for the giant wolves.
As they cleaned up the battlefield, they showed joy on their faces. Even the giant wolf jumped up, wagged its tail, and shouted the name of the "Fox King".
This wave not only included Silverlight City, but also the allied forces of the three kingdoms. The sheer abundance of the spoils was so great that even the aloof assassin Blood Raven revealed a hint of a smile as he led his men to collect the loot.
With abundant resources such as armor, weapons, warhorses, potions, and magical materials, Blood Raven plans to further expand the First Legion to a size exceeding one thousand men.
Furthermore, even if the well-made equipment is damaged, it can still be used after being repaired by the armor-making department.
"This premium armor is mine!"
"Hey, this guy has beef jerky on his belt!"
"Strip them naked!!"
Giant City possesses abundant mineral resources and is rich in jewelry, agate, and earth crystals.
They had once obtained intelligence in the wasteland that a mithril vein had been discovered in Giant City, which the Duchy considered a hunting target, but Xiao Han and his group intercepted it.
Furthermore, because the Giant City was swept away by the Allied forces in advance, and due to the exposure of the remnants of the Giant race, most of the residents in the city were killed or injured, and those who survived were imprisoned in the underground prison.
The crowd was flushed with excitement, and encouraged by their superiors, they swept through the city's resources.
With the assistance of thousands of skeleton soldiers, the efficiency was very high, and in no time, the piles of goods piled up into a mountain, a dazzling array.
The older generation of wolf riders were skilled enough to amaze the newcomers, but they were also deeply moved.
I thought the days of freeloading on expeditions through the wilderness would be over, but I never expected to be able to do it again after just over two months.
Suddenly, they felt a surge of emotion, and their already soaring affection for Xiao Han increased even further, making them even more loyal.
"Whoosh~"
Scattered snowflakes drifted in the air, the thunderclouds dissipated, and the sky above Giant City was clear.
But Xiao Han, the protagonist, stood on the city wall, gazing at the boundless snowfield in the distance, where a dozen black dots gradually disappeared into the distance.
The Allied forces have a numerical advantage, so if they flee for their lives, they still have a glimmer of hope.
After all, Xiao Han was not a superhuman. Entering Giant City alone, killing three half-step gold-level powerhouses, and casually defeating the allied forces was already his limit.
"However, the gains are not limited to resources."
Xiao Han narrowed his eyes and took out a light source from his wrist guard, which looked like a milky white ball of light.
He vaguely remembered that this idea popped into Elmi's head and was immediately put into the wristband.
To deal with Elmi, he attacked while keeping his distance, using a variety of skills due to the suppression of the sword's momentum.
The effective damage was actually caused by the passive effect of Bone Explosion, which shattered the bones and almost tore the opponent's skeleton away from their flesh. Fortunately, the opponent's defense had a weakness that was both an advantage and a disadvantage: it cut off nerve signals, so they did not notice the loosening of their bones.
"It has the same skill as [Starfall], but its rank is significantly higher than the former."
His pupils gleamed, and flames surged at the bottom, attempting to decipher the interface information of this inheritance.
Skill:???
Rank: ? ? ?
? ? ?
Xiao Han remained silent, his black hair hanging down, and a question mark popped out from his upright fox ears.
Finally, after a moment's hesitation, he reached inside with one hand.
Instantly, sword energy surged forth like a well-prepared wave, leaving wounds on Xiao Han's hands one after another, but was ultimately swallowed up by a ball of demonic flame.
If even Emil, a defeated foe, could inherit this legacy, then it's perfectly reasonable for a novice demon king, stronger than him, to refine it as well.
The next moment, sword energy burst forth, perhaps due to Xiao Han's strength, transforming into a torrent of information that surged into Xiao Han's mind.
Its purple light flashed like lightning, its brilliance dazzling.
A radiant mist rises, and sword energy soars into the sky.
Xiao Han opened his eyes, a flash of sword light appearing in them.
He was greatly alarmed, realizing that the master who laid down this legacy might be an ancient sage from the Land of Dawn.
The Sword Immortal Taibai.
"Could it be Li Bai from the mobile game 'Honor of Kings'?"
This was the first thought that popped into Xiao Han's mind.
Back then, when he had both red and blue buffs under his feet, and could tower dive and flash to take down enemy dogs as easily as taking candy from a baby, he was using Li Bai, the drunkard.
Following the typical time-travel trope, perhaps he and a character from the game traveled through time together. The other character flew on a sword and became a sword immortal, while he, a dignified keyboard immortal, ended up as a demon king, a high-risk profession considered an enemy of the continent.
