7 KINGDOMS: conquest
177.the city of Keil, the fallen city
The 4 mysterious old men disappeared in an instant, just like how they came.
Noran could not imagine how powerful the great empire Shanion used to be.
how strong are they? and how many strong fighters among them?
the mightiest great empire could vanish in just one night.what kind of terrifying power was capable of doing so.
all the bandits had been killed, the small town that was previously the headquarters of the blaze sword bandits was now almost flat on the ground.
Noran was still looking around, which was filled with the corpses of his troops as well as the bandit blaze sword.
most of the corpses were bandits blaze sword.of the 5000+ warriors he brought, approximately 500 soldiers became victims.
most were killed because of the devil's evil technique, which was able to attract human souls as food.
"collect all the bodies in one place, and we'll burn them" Sin said.
all the soldiers nodded, they began to gather the corpses scattered all over the city.
two hours have passed, all the bodies are now gathered in the city center.The troops began to burn the bodies, the bodies are left can be the undead.
although not so strong, if the number is too large it will be a disaster.
also, there were cases where the undead had the same power as they lived.
Noran entered the mansion that the bandit leader lived in before. Several servants and maids were seen inside the mansion.
all of them were wearing iron necklaces with strange carvings on them. This was similar to the necklace Sylfia had worn before, the slave necklace.
"slave?" noran muttered.
he still remembered how humans and other races were sold like goods in the Zugen empire. A sense of smell and anger now appeared in Noran's heart.
"not in any world, slavery is always happening" Noran murmured.
he remembered the servants who were squeezed sweat and blood by a company. Even though they were free citizens, but their lives were no better than the slaves.
"take them to the others" Noran said.
the two armored warriors behind him nodded, herding around 40 servants to leave the mansion.
an old man lowered his head and prostrated himself before Noran, tears streaming down.
as slaves, their master's anger was death to them, and now their new master looked displeased.
all the slaves were trembling, afraid that their master would kill them immediately. Noran stood still and looked around.
"i will not kill you, follow them and you will gather with the others" Noran said.
"sir! thanks sir!" said an old man.
the man came back crying, not a cry of sadness but a cry of happiness.The slaves heaved a sigh of relief before bowing, expressing their gratitude.
the slaves were then among the soldiers to where the slaves gathered. Noran continued to walk through a long hallway filled with various displays that looked luxurious.
on both sides of the many wooden doors in sight, there were dozens of rooms in this mansion.
a variety of worn and stocky flags were seen along the walls of the hallway.
the flag is yellowish, with a picture of a lion in its center.it's the flag of the lion kingdom in the northwest, a small kingdom located on the border of Artenia.
'was this once a small town in the kingdom of lions?' noran muttered.
after walking for a long time, two wooden doors were seen closing the long hallway.two knight armor on display on the right and left side of the door, complete with a long spear that looks sharp.
several round chairs were seen in the rows beside the red carpet, as if this room was a king's lounge.
Keil Town's..
black writing was seen on the wooden board behind the chair, clearly attached. Keil town, a small town that was taken by a group of blaze sword bandits a few years ago.
Noran walked towards the center of the room, as usual he saw if there was a secret room in the room like this.
after a while, he found a fairly large space under this room, a tunnel connected to the floor of the lounger.
'this bandit is quite smart.' murmured Noran while smiling.
Noran then called Herton to take care of the spoils.The slaves were now under the supervision of Sin and the others.
none of the bandits lived after the ghost warrior army appeared.If there were, they would have already left this base.
"sir, 8,000 slaves are we going to do?" ask Sin.
"let them choose.they may go back to their kingdom, and start their lives again.or, they join us and start all over again" Noran said.
"well sir." said Sin.
Sin went and told the slaves, who were previously residents of the city.
Herton arrives just after Sin leaves, reporting the booty this time.
there were many gold, silver and bronze coins.many silk fabrics and various other treasures.
"sir, I found a strange object sir" Herton said.
Herton took out a black cube from the bag he was carrying. The cube was 30 cm3 in size.
the mineral ores give off a shiny black glow, with a few other beautiful wanras.
[mithril ore: legendary
mithril ore is a rare substance, the ore only appears after a mineral absorbs large amounts of mana for a long time.]
"this..." Noran surprised.
he held the mithril ore in trembling, never expecting to find it in this place.
"what is this ore, sir?" ask Herton.
he looked curious as he looked at Noran tremblingly lifting a strange black ore.
"i-in-this is a rare ore of mithril." said Noran.
he grew even more incredulous when he said it himself. The mithril ore that could be used to make legendary weapons, had already been protruding before him.
"this is mithril ore?!" herton.
his eyes widened in disbelief, he had never seen it directly. Mithril ore only existed in the story, and it was only described as its dazzling color.
there were no pictures or anything, this made him surprised to see that the thing he had brought before was a rare mithril.
"great! it's great! we'll be back in camp soon!" noran.
Herton nodded and prepared an entire army.The bodies of the soldiers were also collected before being burned.
'finally, I can make a magic wand for them!' noran muttered.
