The red hue from the setting sun illuminated the ground like blood.
The wheels’ crunching sounds became increasingly louder as the hundreds of various vehicles approached and clearly reached everyone’s ears.
A sudden artillery shell exploded in the camp’s center and killed anyone within a range of 50 meters.
Thousands of casualties were caused in just a moment.
Soon, the vehicles came into view and were clearly visible to Du Shi, who was standing at the city gate.
After his initial confusion, anger, and impulsiveness, Du Shi calmed down and suppressed all his emotions.
This was not because he had lost his fighting spirit after witnessing the opponent’s strength. Instead, he realized he had to survive in order to take revenge for these people. Thus, he buried the hatred in his heart and knew he should wait for the right opportunity to take action.
Rumble…
Rumble…
Many strangely-shaped vehicles began to approach the city gate.
The approaching enemies did not concentrate together but instead evenly surrounded every exit of the territory.
The groans within the city gradually diminished after seeing the countless missiles pointed toward them. Most of them stood in a daze while tightly clenching their “weapons,” which were supposedly agricultural tools, and prayed in their hearts for the subsequent explosion not to be next to them.
Creak!
All the military tanks were in position. A vehicle the size of a truck with a sturdy spike on the front stopped in front of the east gate.
The vehicle door creaked, and a leg like a beast’s appeared in everyone’s sight.
It was thick and covered in silver armor-like fish scales that most people would never associate with humans.
Everyone’s questions were answered a few seconds later.
“F*ck! Who’s the one operating the missiles? How could he miss and fire it into the camp?
“I said to shoot the city gates just to intimate them, yet he bombed my subjects.
“Who operated it? Go find out for me. He won’t be getting dinner tonight!”
Sun Bahu got out of the car and repeatedly shook his head after seeing the tragic state of the city.
Although Sun Bahu’s face showed pity, Du Shi’s fist could not help but clench tightly and grind his teeth after hearing his words.
‘Intimidate…missed…the punishment is just no dinner…
‘The lives of thousands of people is just a trivial mistake in their eyes which can be forgiven with just a punishment like no dinner?
‘Are…are they even human?’
Compared to Su Mo, Sun Bahu’s cold-bloodedness was inhuman and did not have any empathy for other humans at all, just like a machine.
“You. Are you the captain of the east gate guards?”
Sun Bahu scanned left and right. He saw Du Shi standing in front of the city gate, glaring toward the ground, and walked over in a few steps at a speed that did not match his burly physique.
His tone was relaxed but had a strong suppression of a superior.
“I…I’m…”
Du Shi did not dare to raise his head and answered slowly while looking at the ground for fear of revealing the undisguised murderous intent in his eyes.
However, his “well-behaved and fearful” look made Sun Bahu snort in satisfaction.
“Don’t be afraid. You’ve done a good job. I’m very satisfied.
“The shot just now was a mistake by one of the men and will never happen again in the future. I’m still your territory lord and superior. You don’t have to be so afraid of me.
“Right now, you will continue guarding the city gate here, and don’t let anyone who doesn’t have my permission to leave as they please, alright?”
Sun Bahu stepped forward and patted Du Shi on the shoulder with a smug expression.
Before getting off the car just now, he was furiously cursing the person who missed the shot in his heart.
However, the anger he had dissolved instantly and was replaced with satisfaction after seeing the fear and obedient behavior of those under him, surrendering to his power.
“Oh? This hit wasn’t actually too bad. The missile has a greater effect than me personally dealing with the troublemakers in the city.”
Sun Bahu whistled relaxedly and walked into the city gate. Then, he turned his head to a middle-aged man on the ground beside him.
“What’s your name?”
