To obtain 1,200 sword essences, one needs to kill 1,200 squad leaders. Zhao Fu suspects there aren't that many squad leaders, as he's only seen about fifty so far, far short of the required number. However, legendary quality equipment is hard to obtain, so Zhao Fu understands.
After killing the centurion, the Heavenly Demon Sword emitted an invisible suction force, devouring the centurion's flesh and blood essence. Zhao Fu realized that the previously dormant Heavenly Demon had awakened.
But the three Flower Fairy, sensing this power, immediately turned pale with fright and flew out from Zhao Fu's chest, screaming, "This power is so evil! It feels so awful! Zhao! You're holding a demon sword!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fu was taken aback, then nodded, seemingly unconcerned.
The Heavenly Demon within the Sword let out a sinister laugh, and a surge of demonic energy erupted from its blade, causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees. It seemed as if a great demon was about to be unleashed, and greeted Mei Mei and the other two, "Hello, you three little ones!"
"Ah!"
Mei Mei and the other two screamed again, "This demonic sword can talk! The demon inside is so powerful! Zhao! Throw it away quickly, don't let it control you!"
Hearing their words, Zhao Fu smiled and said, "Don't worry, the sword is fine."
"Really?"
Mei Mei and the other two were somewhat skeptical.
Zhao Fu tapped the ground with the Heavenly Demon Sword. The Heavenly Demon Heavenly Demon Sword within the sword let out a soft snort and withdrew its terrifying aura, saying, "Alright! I shouldn't have scared you just now."
Hearing this and seeing how Zhao Fu had completely mastered the Demon Sword, Mei Mei and the other two finally lowered their guard and flew to the Heavenly Demon Sword, observing it with a mixture of fear and curiosity.
Faced with the gazes of the three Flower Fairy, as a noble Heavenly Demon, being looked at like a novelty made her somewhat unhappy, but seeing that Zhao Fu seemed to like the three of them, she could only let it go.
"But when will that stingy yet powerful master be able to like it so much, letting it devour all its essence and soul? That would be wonderful."
The Heavenly Demon's gaze fell upon the General Soul that Zhao Fu had placed in the King's Ring, and he couldn't help but lick his sexy lips.
Zhao Fu then turned his gaze to the three Goblin trapped by the vines, and casually threw a Fireball, ending their lives.
Then, the three Flower Fairy flew back into Zhao Fu's clothes. Because of the previous battle with Shi Jian, the Heavenly Demon had also fallen into a short slumber. Now that the Heavenly Demon had awakened, Zhao Fu wanted to borrow her power.
On another occasion, another group of Goblin was attracted. The ranged units, namely the Throwing Goblin, were killed by assassins. Then, of course, the centurion spotted them and swiftly thrust his sword at Zhao Fu.
" Heavenly Demon!"
Zhao Fu donned the Heavenly Demon, and with a soft shout, a large amount of demonic energy burst forth from the Heavenly Demon Sword and entered Zhao Fu's body. Instantly, Zhao Fu felt an evil force enter his body.
With a swift movement of his sword, he deflected the centurion's thrust, then thrust his sword straight toward the centurion's throat.
The captain was startled and abruptly turned his head to the side!
A smile appeared on Zhao Fu's lips. He slashed his sword, and a black arc of light flashed. The centurion's head fell from his body, and a large amount of blood spurted from his neck. The corpse stood there blankly for a moment before collapsing limply to the ground.
The few surviving Goblin were terrified and ran away, but Zhao Fu caught up with them and several black sword flashes ended their lives.
The Goblin corpses continued to be devoured by the Heavenly Demon Sword. Now, with the power of the Heavenly Demon Sword, dealing with these Goblin was much easier. Since Zhao Fu was currently injured, the large amount of basic attributes added by his previous equipment could only receive less than half of the bonus.
Otherwise, with the terrifying base attribute bonuses of the Heavenly Demon Sword alone, Zhao Fu could have simply charged in and wreaked havoc.
Then, Zhao Fu continued to kill Goblin using this method, while collecting fragments and the sword essence.
Two days later!
Saar led his troops into a mid-sized village of about 1,200 people in the forest. Now, the Great Qin was fully militarized, and war was the top priority.
Not only are the equipment of each team the best in the Great Qin, but a large amount of gold coins have also been spent to buy top-notch skills from various systems for them to learn. In addition, each person has two kinds of elixirs: one that can temporarily increase strength and the other that can quickly heal injuries. Finally, each team is also equipped with several military doctors.
Saar's group, mainly composed of Orc, Saar the village for a while after discovering it. This was crucial, as any major mistake would result in the general bearing all the consequences. Even if Bai Qi didn't kill him outright, he would be rendered completely useless.
After observing the village, it turned out to be just an ordinary village with average defenses. Saar ultimately chose to launch a direct assault. Generally, if the chieftain is not killed or the village is not captured, the residents are unlikely to choose to surrender.
Therefore, to acquire a large population, it is necessary to quickly occupy or kill the leader.
As the sun sets in the afternoon, its golden rays bathe the peaceful village in light, wisps of smoke rise from chimneys, and every household begins to cook.
Saar had been preparing for a long time. He raised his greatsword, roared, and rode his tall Black Forest Horse, leading three hundred Orc Cavalry to charge out from one side. On the other side, Shield Bearer, Infantry, Archer also formed square formations and charged forward quickly.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The sudden attack startled the villagers, who screamed in terror, and the entire village descended into chaos.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!...
Saar's Archer and Ballista preemptively struck, their arrows whistling through the air as they entered the village, immediately eliciting screams of agony.
Arrows immediately rained down from within the village. Saar, who was at the forefront, swung his greatsword, creating a flash of light that deflected five or six arrows. Some soldiers used their shields to block, while others chose to dodge, but a few were still hit by the arrows.
At this moment, Saar had already rushed to the village. His three hundred Cavalry were incredibly fierce and directly broke through some of the village's wooden defenses, storming into the village. The soldiers that followed also rushed in.
The two sides quickly clashed!
Saar glanced around and, finding no leader-like figure, led his Cavalry directly towards the village hall, while the King's Death Knight and three hundred skeletons held them off.
Unstoppable, Saar led three hundred Cavalry into the village. Seeing a middle-aged Ren Ying to be the leader, he charged straight at him, regardless of whether the man surrendered or not. As long as he showed no sign of surrender, Bai Qi granted him the authority to execute him.
Because time is everything, Bai Qi ordered them to end the battle as quickly as possible, ensuring the survival of their own soldiers and preserving a large population.
Based on this order, all means are permitted, whether they are Light or despicable. Bai Qi only cares about one outcome. It can be said that the Great Qin is now heading towards extremes, exuding a dangerous and terrifying aura.
