Lilith: "It Doesn't Matter, I Will Make My Move."

Within the territory of Wilderness City.

It was mainly divided into two parts.

One part was Fang Yuan's Main City.

This was the area protected by city walls.

Inside the Main City's walls, the main structures were various purple core buildings.

To damage these buildings, the city walls had to be breached first.

The other part was the wasteland outside the city, unprotected by walls.

As of now, there was only one building in the wasteland outside the city: the Hunter's Lodge.

It mainly produced Hunters to open the mist around the territory, hunt for food and pelts along the way.

As the territory expanded.

These Hunters would also set up temporary warehouses in the wild according to local conditions to store food.

Once the food storage was full, it would be transported back to the territory and placed in the Main City's warehouse.

At this moment.

At the temporary warehouse point outside the Wilderness Territory.

Hunters were sending back batches of bloody pelts to the territory.

Most were from small creatures like reindeer and rabbits.

After all, the Hunters' combat power was limited, and they couldn't hunt fierce beasts.

And as they were transporting supplies.

Suddenly!

A loud "bang" echoed.

Immediately after, the ground began to shake.

Countless muffled sounds traveled from far to near from the northeast direction.

"What is that?"

"What happened?"

"Could it be that the Lord has developed another giant creature?"

"Huh, it's not the sound of that Lumbering Machine."

The Hunters all stopped what they were doing.

And looked towards the northeast.

And in the next second.

A giant hammer flew out from the darkness.

It smashed heavily onto a Hunter who was looking.

In an instant, the living person who was standing moments ago turned into a pile of crushed flesh and blood.

At the same time!

The Beastmen Commander, a massive figure nearly three meters tall, emerged from the mist.

"The Human Lord's territory is here."

"Found it!"

"Warriors!"

"Charge!"

The hundreds of Beastmen behind him let out low growls.

They grabbed the projectile weapons they carried and hurled them at the Hunters outside the territory.

"Enemy attack!"

"It's an enemy attack!"

"Run!"

"If you don't run, you'll die!"

The panicked Hunters, after a brief moment of hesitation.

Without any further delay.

They dropped their goods and fled madly towards the territory.

But their speed was clearly no match for the Beastmen.

Although the Hunters were less than a hundred meters from the territory.

These hundred meters were the dividing line between life and death.

The projectiles from the Beastmen behind them accurately struck the fleeing Hunters.

Even the fastest among them.

Just as he was about to rush into the Wilderness Territory.

A javelin precisely embedded itself in his neck.

The immense force split the Hunter's head in two.

His body remained outside the territory, while his head rolled in.

It landed at the feet of a Goblin Robot that had just finished transporting wood.

The Goblin Robot only executed mechanical commands.

It showed no expression upon seeing the Hunter's head.

Instead, it swung its two giant blades, attempting to continue moving outside the territory.

But soon.

A new command appeared, interrupting the Goblin Robot's actions.

"Return!"

Fang Yuan, accompanied by Lilith, stopped the Goblin Robot's movement.

He then gently waved his hand towards the Flame Mages behind him.

"Test their strength!"

The Flame Mages had already reached level three.

Purple Tier 3 strength.

Although they hadn't entered the qualitative change stage yet.

They were already elite troops.

Upon receiving Fang Yuan's command, the Flame Mage squad leader stepped forward personally.

After a series of mysterious incantations.

Three Fire Elementals were summoned.

"Go!"

"Burn the darkness, light eternal!"

The appearance of the Flame Mages also caused some apprehension among the Beastmen outside the territory.

"Mages!"

"Why are human mages appearing here?"

"Is this human Lord a legendary noble?"

While the Beastmen Commander hesitated.

The three Fire Elementals rushed out of the territory.

Without hesitation, they unleashed a barrage of fireballs.

This was the Fire Elementals' primary attack method.

Previously, in the Gnoll lair, the Gnolls had met their end by this very attack.

But at this moment, seeing the fireballs flying towards them, the Beastmen did not panic.

He roared, "Mere fireballs, you insult the Beastmen warriors!"

Saying that, he swung the large iron hammer in his hand.

He slammed it forward, and a surge of immense power, accompanied by fierce winds, managed to block all the fireballs.

"I am a Beastmen warrior!"

"I have awakened Bloodthirsty Battle Qi!"

"You dare to insult me with low-level spells."

"Human!"

"I will make you pay!"

The Beastmen Commander's voice reached Fang Yuan's ears.

He curiously inquired, "Bloodthirsty Battle Qi?"

"What is that?"

Lilith quickly replied, "It's a type of power belonging to warriors."

"It's common among individuals with strong physiques, and their combat power is quite good after awakening."

"It's relatively common among Orcs, Beastmen, and Humans."

Fang Yuan nodded.

"These Beastmen have mastered this power."

"That's going to be troublesome."

Lilith, however, said indifferently.

"It's fine."

"I'll handle it."

She then said to the Flame Mages not far away.

"Everyone, summon Fire Elementals."

"Surround these Beastmen."

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

The fifty Flame Mages who received the order began chanting spells.

A moment later.

A full 150 Fire Elementals appeared.

This sudden appearance of enemies instantly bewildered the Beastmen Commander opposite them.

"So many mages?"

The Beastmen Shaman beside him also showed a hint of solemnity on his face.

"You are the only one who has mastered Bloodthirsty Battle Qi."

"The other Beastmen warriors will find it difficult to resist the Human mages individually."

"We can only rely on collective strength."

"Commander, immediately order everyone to rally to me and form a circle."

"With you as the core, I will cast shamanistic magic."

"To empower all Beastmen warriors with the strength of Bloodthirsty Battle Qi."

"Only in this way can we defeat these Human mages!"

At this moment, the Beastmen Commander did not hesitate for a moment.

As the Fire Elementals began to surround him.

He raised the hammer in his hand.

"Rally to me!"

"Shields on the outside, spears in the center!"

"Form a protective circle!"

"Roar!"

All the Beastmen let out a unified roar.

They then quickly formed a large circular formation.

Protecting themselves with shields and spears.

Meanwhile.

The Beastmen Shaman began to chant, and mystical incantations empowered the Beastmen Commander.

Threads of bloodthirsty battle qi began to overflow.

Linking all the Beastmen together.

As the Bloodthirsty Battle Qi appeared, a red glow emerged on the shields of the Beastmen circle.

When the Fire Elementals surrounded them and launched a barrage of fireballs.

The fireballs struck the shields.

In an instant, they were blocked by the red Bloodthirsty Battle Qi.

Fang Yuan frowned upon seeing this.

"This powerful?"

"I fear these Beastmen's strength is not low."

And what the Beastmen did next.

Made Fang Yuan even more surprised.

After blocking the first wave of fireballs.

The Beastmen Shaman in the center shouted.

"Ancestral Spirits above, grant me the power of bloodlust."

"Blood Spear!"

As the words fell.

A blood spear suddenly appeared from the circular formation.

The next moment, the blood spear flew out, transforming into hundreds of tiny blood spears that struck the Fire Elemental.

In an instant, the Fire Elemental let out a piercing cry.

It was completely obliterated.

"Holy crap!"

Fang Yuan exclaimed this time.

"So powerful!"

Lilith, standing beside him, remarked upon seeing this.

"War Magic!"

"This Beastmen Shaman's strength is not low."

"But if that's all there is to it!"

"It's still too weak."

"Now that you've had your fun."

"It's my turn to act!"

Lilith raised her hand, twirling the staff in her grasp in the air.

Mysterious magical energies appeared in the void.

"Dance of the Flame Whirlwind, heed my call!"

"Transform into a storm."

"Spell!"

"Flame Storm!"

As she finished speaking, Lilith clenched her fist.

The next second.

A raging inferno erupted from the circular formation of Beastmen outside the territory.

The flames rose from the earth, accompanied by the power of the storm.

In an instant, the entire circular formation was engulfed.

"Ah~"

"It's a high-level human mage."

"No, my battle qi!"

"Help, I'm burning!"

"Ancestral God, save your people."

But all their wails were in vain.

Under Lilith's exquisite control of magic.

The Flame Storm raged within that small area.

After five minutes passed.

Lilith retracted her staff, clapped her hands, and said to Fang Yuan.

"Done!"

"Lord Fang Yuan, you can clean up the battlefield!"

At this moment, Fang Yuan witnessed Lilith's brutality for the first time.

He dazedly raised his head with a "Ah."

Then he looked at the battlefield.

Only a pile of ashes remained.

Did they even need to clean up the battlefield?

However, a prompt for collecting spoils of war soon arrived, making Fang Yuan overjoyed.

"Ding, you have defeated a squad of Purple Tier 3 units, Beastmen Centurions. Do you wish to clear the battlefield and settle the spoils of war?"
