Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead - Chapter 358:

Chapter 358: Chapter 351, Cleaning the Warehouse 1

Rebecca made it sound simple, but the reality was far from it.

Being targeted by the Faceless was no good thing.

Even Rebecca had been cornered by the Faceless, what more a small mercenary group.

Nevertheless, Fang Hao chose to undertake this task.

He had already taken action against the Faceless, he wasn’t afraid of offending them even more. &

The scariest part about the Faceless was their deep undercover agents, who might stab you in the back at any turn.

But this threat was not serious to Fang Hao.

He rarely ventured outside and in his domain, other than the few people who had signed contracts with him, the rest were undead.

Even if they wanted to plant spies, there was nowhere to do so.

Also, his conversation with Rebecca spurred his interest in the power centre of Lyss City.

The man he had met last time was the City Lord of Lyss City.

But it seemed like the military authority was in the hands of Rebecca, the City Lord’s wife.

There might be things about this he did not yet understand.

Hearing Fang Hao’s agreement, Rebecca heaved a sigh of relief.

There were several established mercenary groups in the city that were more influential than Fang Hao.

But it was hard to be sure that these groups were not infiltrated by the Faceless.

So after much consideration, Rebecca decided to trust Fang Hao a tad bit more.

Her next move would be to see if she had betted right this time.

“Good, we will settle on this matter then. How many people do you have?” Rebecca sat up and picked up a piece of fruit to eat.

“How many do you need?”

“Hmm? By that, you mean you have quite a number of mercenaries at your disposal?”

Not a lot, but I can gather around a hundred.” Fang Hao confidently replied.

Alright. Then you should bring some, around thirty people. 1 will send someone to brief you when the time comes.” Rebecca nodded her head.

Rebecca knew where Fang Hao lived, so she would arrange for someone to notify him of the next steps once the time came.

With the discussion over, Fang Hao wasn’t inclined to stay any longer. He stood up saying, “Mrs. Rebecca, I will return now to start preparations.”

“Sure.” As Fang Hao prepared to leave, Rebecca added, “Do not let word of our conversation escape outside.”

“Sure.”

Fang Hao left the room and exited the task hall with Anjia.

After leaving the task hall, Fang Hao and Anjia did not linger.

They hailed a carriage and directly returned to their residence.

After lying down on his bed, Fang Hao directly activated supreme-ruler’s Presence.

The next second, he appeared in the Gray Bear’s village, immediately experiencing the pain that came from the strain on his spiritual power due to long-distance usage of supreme-ruler’s Presence.

In view was still Gray Bear’s room.

Gray Bear was dressed loosely, standing by the window looking outside.

“Gray Bear,” Fang Hao softly called out.

Gray Bear turned back and saw the Skeleton Grey sparrow on the bed, “My Lord,” he replied.

“Prepare. Select about thirty agile individuals with no criminal records in Lyss

City, and send them to Lyss City to find me.” Fang Hao continued.

“Yes sir, I will start preparations right away,” Gray Bear immediately pledged.

“Rightly, make sure they reach the city before dusk.”

“Yes, my lord.”

Fang Hao deactivated supreme-ruler’s Presence, and Gray Bear immediately put on his armor and went outside.

It was 10:00 in the evening.

In the east of the city, near a corner, was a civilian house.

The small house was dim inside. Under the moonlight, several shadows were faintly visible.

As per agreement, Fang Hao’s people were stationed here waiting for Rebecca’s message.

Apart from Fang Hao and Anjia, Demitrija, and Gray Bear had, before the city gates closed, brought in 27 people.

They did not light torches, nor chat much. The only sounds heard were the chirping of insects in the courtyard.

The bandits they had with them were somewhat anxious.

They wondered if their chief was becoming reckless, planning something big in the city.

Initiating an attack in the city, wasn’t that just asking for death?

Thump, Thump, Thump!!

Suddenly, the door of the courtyard got knocked.

“The route has been arranged, the lady is to be captured alive.” A man’s voice sounded from outside the door.

Fang Hao nodded to his people.

Clang, Clang, Clang!!

The men stood up, the sound of their armor rattling echoed.

The door was opened to reveal a middle-aged man outside.

Fang Hao found the man somewhat familiar, likely a guard from Rebecca’s side.

“If possible, I will try my best to keep him alive,” Fang Hao whispered.

“This is the map, the location is an abandoned warehouse. Be careful.” The man turned and left after delivering his message.

Fang Hao took the map, finding the markings familiar.

This was one of the three locations provided by Lai Gou, the abandoned warehouse located in the corner of the east city.

Fang Hao had checked out the location before using supreme-ruler’s Presence.

He hadn’t noticed anything suspicious then, seemingly the City Lord’s mansion knew about this location too.

“Let’s go,” Fang Hao waved his hand, and the group moved towards their target under the cover of night.

After about twenty minutes.

The group arrived at a cluster of warehouses.

The warehouses appeared to have been abandoned for a long time.

Some were decently preserved while others had collapsed walls and large holes in the roof.

Fang Hao and his men concealed themselves in the shadows. He took out the Skeleton Grey sparrow from his bag and deployed supreme-ruler’s Presence on it.

He flew the sparrow towards the warehouse.

As he got closer from the air, he spotted several cloak-clad sentinels hiding in the shadows.

Had they proceeded recklessly they, would have undoubtedly been discovered by these sentinels hidden in the shadows.

These guys were pretty careful.

Fang Hao circled the air several times to remember the sentinels’ positions, then deactivated supreme-ruler’s Presence.

He relayed their positions to his men.

The situation hit a stalemate.

The sentinels were in tricky spots-it wouldn’t be easy to assassinate them.

They were all keeping a watch on each other, killing one would alert the rest.

“A few of you should eliminate the sentinels directly. Demitrija, Anjia, the two of you should lead the rest and storm the warehouse. Try to capture a live one, if possible,” Fang Hao spoke decisively.

Fang Hao chose a more direct way.

The team didn’t have people skilled at strategy. It would be more convenient to just go in freely.

“Yes!” They all responded.

“Let’s begin the action!”

Everyone left the shadows, armed with weapons, and ran towards the sentinels.

Demitrija and another person guided their men directly towards the warehouse, lifted the hidden lid on the ground, and jumped inside.

The underground room was very bright.

The torches on the walls illuminated the room.

Four cloaked individuals stood stupefied at the sudden entrance of all the warriors.

Even though their faces were hidden, the pupils in the gaps of their cloaks shrunk rapidly as if shocked.

Behind the cloaked men was a woman stained with blood and hung up by ropes. They are probably interrogating her.

“You…”

Whip!

The cloaked man, who seemed to be the leader, had just started talking when Demitrija quickly attacked and severed the man’s limbs with his sword. Blood spurted out immediately.

“Ah…” The cloaked man cried out in pain.

Demitrija’s deep voice sounded again, “Break their limbs, make sure they can’t commit suicide.”

“Yes!”

Gray Bear and the others sprung into action, overtaking the remaining three in the midst of wailing cries..
