Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 320
320 The Dark Swamp
As long as the bait was tempting, anyone would willingly walk into the trap.
Su Wan ordered the Treants to stand down until the enemies had stepped into their domain. Then, they were allowed to devour them. That plan was a success!
This hunt had given her ideas. How many Night Devil Bees could be nourished from the corpses of the heroes that had just fallen? How much power of the Dark Withered Treants could be restored from the bodies the Dark Swamp had swallowed?
Su Wan realized that if she could efficiently harness the nourishment from the corpses in her area, she could really turn her territory into a real Dark Territory.
!!
The sound of a horn interrupted her thoughts. She turned around. Under the moonlight, Light-Types were launching another attack on her territory.
Her territory was only at Level 3, so it wasn’t very huge. When tens and thousands of troops converged from every direction, her territory was entirely covered!
Su Wan perched on the city walls and watched.
Numerous troops surrounded the territory. The sight would have been enough to scare any Lord.
The horn sounded again, and an evil aura filled the sky.
Many of the residents, who had returned to their houses, peeked from their windows. The oil lamps had been extinguished. The residents had been trained well. Any light could easily be targeted.
The residents weren’t scared. Instead, they looked determined to do their part.
Many people held simple weapons in their hands and crouched in the dark. They had made their choice.
They wouldn’t let the Lord fight alone if the territory was breached. They would rush out and help the Lord as much as they could.
The residents didn’t claim to be fearless. They were scared out of their wits but still willing to fight!
…
The Light-Types and their Lords weren’t weak. This alliance was indeed stronger than most. However, they were facing Su Wan. Her name alone struck fear into the hearts of many Lords. Seven Shackles didn’t dare take this fight lightly.
The heroes around the boundary of the territory formed a defense line. If they weren’t prepared, the enemy would take them by surprise.
Seven Shackles didn’t have the time to check the attributes of the territory, so he didn’t know exactly how strong the territory was.
“Lord Seven Shackles, what should we do now?” asked a Light-Type hero when he saw that the Lord was lost in thought.
Seven Shackles let out a weary sigh. He raised his head to look at Su Wan’s territory. It didn’t matter how strong the enemy was. If they could somehow breach the boundary, they would have an advantage.
“Prepare the troops. We need to restrict and restrain them,” said Seven Shackles. He raised his sword. “Blow the horn! We attack! For the Glory of the God!”
They had come this far. Turning back was not an option. The only choice was to attack with all their might. As long as he finished the mission, he would get that reward!
He didn’t think the enemy could withstand the troops he had brought along. The horn sounded for the third time.
The troops charged. The pressure on the city walls increased. Seven Shackles clenched his fists in anticipation and smiled. He had faith that they would succeed.
He heard a buzz from somewhere. Something felt wrong.
Seven Shackles turned to look. Under the illumination of the moon, a dark mass was approaching quickly.
He opened the attribute panel to check.
[Night Devil Bees.]
Seven Shackles was frozen in fear. How could this territory have such powerful troops?!
The dark mass swooped down at them and engulfed everything. The Light-Types who had been attacking the city walls stopped in fear.
They didn’t know what to do. The Night Devil Bees shot forward like arrows, leaving afterimages in their wake.
Their stingers flashed in the light before they impaled it deep into the skin of their enemies. The parts of the enemies’ skin which weren’t protected by their armor suffered deep, poisonous wounds.
Blood splattered everywhere. The area where they were stung turned green. The poison spread quickly, and many troops dropped dead where they stood.
Wherever these bees ventured, troops dropped like flies.
The Night Devil Bees were relentless in their attacks. They didn’t give the enemy a chance to recover. It was as though a natural disaster had cleared out a portion of the enemy’s population.
The remaining troops were scared out of their wits. In the blink of an eye, the situation had turned from bad to worse.
Seven Shackles was still frozen. He was trying to figure out a way to fight these creatures. He looked at the Night Devil Bees and then at the Light-Types who were fleeing.
His body felt numb, and his head buzzed. His heart was pounding out of turn. ‘What are these bees? Are these Su Wan’s troops as well?’
He couldn’t believe how Su Wan had managed to nurture one powerful troop type after another.
‘What should I do?!’
Their determination and courage shattered with the appearance of the Night Devil Bees. The poisonous bees couldn’t be stopped unless they had a mage who could cast an AoE spell and clear them out.
“Guild Leader, should we retreat?” The two Lords by his side panicked.
They no longer wanted to attack the territory. They only wanted to get out of this place alive. Seven Shackles was unwilling to accept this fate.
They had a huge army. They even had Light-Types to back them up, and yet…
They had failed miserably in bringing down this one territory! How could he just accept defeat?
Su Wan looked at the scene below. The Night Devil Bees had done their job wonderfully. However, Su Wan didn’t let her guard down. She sensed that the enemy was like a venomous snake lying in wait for the right time to attack.
However, she was ready. If they made any sudden moves, she would unleash the Heavy Blade Warriors upon them.
