From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS - Chapter 387

387 Chapter 387-world expansion

A player who could become a Duke.

None of them lacked money.

Or rather …

!!
Players who lacked money did not have the right to become Dukes.

To the players at the current stage, they had to pay a huge price for every city they took down.

This was because attacking a city was difficult.

It was even more difficult to defend the city.

Often, a single failure could lead to a loss.

So until now.

There weren’t many Dukes among the players.

It wasn’t that there weren’t many who managed to take down the city, but that there weren’t many who could defend the city against the attack of the Imperial court’s Army.

However …

For many people who had money and power in reality.

Take down the city.

They didn’t have to defend the city.

Even if it was just for a world announcement, there would still be people who would spend thousands of gold to get it.

In the eyes of these people.

Fame was often more important than benefits.

Moreover …

Not being able to defend the city did not mean that it was a loss.

This was because the moment they saw that the city could not be defended, the players would order others to plunder the money in the city.

Under such circumstances.

Even if they were killed, it was impossible for them to drop all their items.

After he revived, he could sell the items in his inventory, and he wouldn’t lose much.

so,

This was also the reason why those rich and powerful people, despite knowing that it was difficult to defend a city, would still persist in attacking it and become Dukes.

Zong yang city.

“Lord Marquis, the Outlanders are currently wreaking havoc at the border, and no less than a dozen cities in the mortal region have fallen into their hands. I wonder how we should deal with this!”

A general cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

The words fell.

Immediately, another general said, ” these Outlanders are wreaking havoc on their superiors. I can’t guarantee that the other Outlanders won’t do the same. I suggest that we should act now and kill all the Outlanders in the North cloud Prefecture. We should also expel them all and not give them any chance.

this is not appropriate. If the variant humans don’t die, it will be difficult to completely cure them.

“Hmph, then according to general Chen’s words, are you going to tolerate the Outlanders?”

In Marquis northcloud’s residence, the various generals were in constant disputes.

Marquis northcloud sat in the main seat and didn’t interrupt.

After the scene had quieted down a little, he looked at Fu Bo and asked,”In Mr. Fu’s opinion, how should we handle this matter?”

Fu Bo had expected this.

When he heard Marquis northcloud’s greeting, he immediately stood up and cupped his hands with a calm expression. “Reporting to the Marquis, in this subordinate’s opinion, the Outlanders who have offended their superiors should be suppressed with lightning speed and absolutely not be left with any chance of survival.

As for the other mutants in the North cloud Prefecture, I think we should give them a soft approach and not act rashly for the time being.”

“Hmph, what do you mean by that, Mr. Fu?” The general who had suggested killing the Outlanders earlier said unhappily.

“General ou, you should understand that the Outlanders are like evil spirits and have immortal bodies. Even if we drive them away and kill them, it’s difficult to truly eliminate them at the root.

If we’re not careful and cause the mutants to view us as enemies, it won’t be good for our North cloud Manor.”

and general ou, don’t forget that although the Outlanders aren’t strong, they’ve already reached the spiritual martial realm in less than three years. Moreover, the number of Outlanders isn’t much less than the number of the great Zhao’s humans.

the Outlanders are like explosives that can explode at any moment. Our North cloud Manor must not be the fuse.

Fu Bo spoke with fervor and assurance. He had his own unique views on the Inhumans.

Just as everyone in the hall was speechless.

He looked at Marquis northcloud, who was sitting on the main seat, and cupped his hands again. “Moreover, although the variant humans came from beyond the heavens, they are not much different from the great Zhao’s human race in essence and can be integrated into it.

Most importantly, variant humans were profit-oriented, and their internal conflicts were extremely intense.

As long as we spend a bit of profit and gather a portion of the players, we won’t have to worry about the hidden dangers of the players.”

although the Outlanders have taken over ten cities of our North cloud Prefecture, to put it bluntly, the mortal cities are dispensable to us. No matter how many cities we lose, it won’t harm the foundation of our North cloud Prefecture.

However, general ou was right about one thing. We must try our best to take back the lost city and not give the Outlanders any hope of conquering our North cloud Manor.

Only by doing so can we put an end to the coveting of the variant humans.”

After saying that.

Fu Bo cupped his hands again and returned to his seat.

Marquis northcloud looked at the others and said gently, “”What do you all think of Mr. Fu’s words?”

“Additional discussion!”

“Additional discussion!”

The others did not object and nodded in response.

It had to be said.

This was the best way to deal with the Inhumans.

pass on my order, ” Marquis northcloud said. wipe out all the cities that the Outlanders have occupied in the North cloud Prefecture within five days. There can’t be any delay.

“We will follow your orders!”

“Also,” Marquis northcloud looked at Xiao Hong and said calmly, “Qin shujian killed a Demon King in the fallen Moon mansion and strengthened the reputation of the human race. Since du Chengwu is willing to give a corresponding reward, the Imperial court should also give a certain reward.

Three days later, the Imperial court’s Messenger will arrive. At that time, you can take the item to the Liangshan spirit domain and hand it over to sky origin.”

“Yes!”

Xiao Hong respectfully accepted the order.

Marquis northcloud nodded slightly in response. The matter was considered decided.

The Duke of the fallen Moon du Chengwu could give a reward.

The Imperial court would not be stingy.

After all, killing a demon monarch wasn’t just a matter of the prefecture. It was a matter of great importance to the entire human race.

However, Qin shujian had left the fallen Moon Manor very quickly.

In addition, it would take some time for the message to be sent back, and it would also take some time for the reward discussion. After a long time, the Imperial court had finally decided on the reward.

As for the Imperial court’s emissaries, they couldn’t go to the Liangshan spirit domain in person.

After all, this was the North cloud Manor.

The matter still needed to go through Marquis North cloud’s hands before it could be carried out.

Very quickly.

Marquis northcloud waved his hand to dismiss everyone.

“Mutant!”

At this moment, there was a cold and stern look on his gentle face.

In Marquis northcloud’s eyes …

Anyone who dared to cause trouble in North cloud Manor was a rebel and had to be exterminated.

However-

It was just as Fu Bo said.

Variant humans didn’t die.

No matter how the Imperial court tried to exterminate them, they couldn’t kill all the Outlanders. Moreover, the number of Outlanders was no less than that of the great Zhao dynasty’s humans.

If they sent troops to suppress it …

Even if he could succeed, it would definitely attract the counterattacks of the other variant humans.

At that time.

It wasn’t something that could be solved by one or two powerful beings.

If one was not handled well.

It might even trigger a war similar to the one between the human race and the demon race thousands of years ago.

Now, variant humans were different from the monster race.

Although the variant humans were born from beyond the heavens, they were no different from the great Zhao’s humans in terms of appearance and other aspects. Therefore, the great Zhao’s humans could accept the variant humans.

They were different from the demon race, they were completely outsiders.

Other than that.

Even though variant humans didn’t have any top experts.

However, in front of the undying attribute …

Under certain circumstances, they were much more difficult to deal with than the demon race.

Although the demon race was powerful, they would eventually die and be destroyed. Even the powerful demon kings and demon sages would fall one day.

In comparison.

The variant humans were even more troublesome.

“To be honest, the Inhumans might be the biggest variable in this world!” The voice in his mind sounded, and when it mentioned the word ‘Inhumans’, its tone changed slightly.

“A variable!” Marquis northcloud stood up and slowly walked out of the hall. His lips didn’t move, but he replied with a supreme thought in his mind, “”In your opinion, is the variable good or bad?”

“It’s not easy to change the situation. For this place, it’s best if there are any changes.”

“Does the survival of the Outlanders have anything to do with the demonic abyss?”

I don’t think so. I can’t sense the aura of the demonic abyss on the mutants. If it’s really related to the demonic abyss, it can’t escape my senses.

Upon hearing this.

Marquis northcloud felt more at ease.

It was fine as long as the Inhumans had nothing to do with the demon abyss.

Otherwise, things would become even more troublesome.

Even though every newly-born area had suppressed all the demons that were born, that was only because there were not many of them, and they were not very strong.

In addition, the great Zhao had long since made preparations, so suppressing it was naturally not a problem.

Just like the last time.

The fact that a Demon supreme-ruler had personally taken action had clearly exceeded the expectations of the great Zhao.

In the end.

The fiendcelestial even tore through space to escape despite his heavy injuries.

One could just imagine how difficult it was for high-tiered evil demons to seal an evil demon.

According to Marquis northcloud’s understanding …

The number of evil demons in the demonic abyss was uncountable, and the weakest one was in the celestial realm. Fortunately, evil demons could not leave the demonic abyss at will, and there were not many opportunities for them to step into this world.

Otherwise …

The human race might not be able to maintain their current status.

although these mutants have nothing to do with the demonic abyss, more and more regions have been born. This world has already spread infinitely to the outside world. I can already vaguely sense the aura of the demonic abyss outside the world.

Marquis northcloud stood in front of the main hall’s door as the voice rang out in his mind again. At this time, the indifferent voice was a little more serious.

if the heaven and earth continue to evolve, we will get closer and closer to the demonic abyss. By then, the connection with the demonic abyss might be completely broken. By then, it will be another great Tribulation of heaven and earth!

the fact that the demonic supreme-ruler was able to tear open space and enter here is proof that heaven and earth are close to the demonic abyss.

you don’t have much time left. Against the power of the demonic abyss, even a mighty figure can’t stay out of it. You’re still a little lacking if you want to protect the North cloud Manor alone. As for protecting the entire human race, you still have a long way to go.

When he heard these words.

Marquis northcloud’s expression did not change much.

However, when he heard that heaven and earth were approaching the demonic abyss, his expression became a little solemn, but he quickly recovered.

When the mysterious voice in his mind stopped.

“How long will it take for heaven and earth to touch the demonic abyss?” he asked again.

maybe hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years. There is no fixed time. The speed of the world’s expansion is completely dependent on the spiritual energy in the world.

“The more experts there are in the world, the faster the world will expand.”

“I can’t give you an exact answer.”
