Alien world

Chapter 1073 Chapter 304. Encirclement of the New Capital

In fact, Annan's original idea was to hold a public trial and bring Agarwal out for repeated trials.

Olmedo was worried that the longer the night went, the more trouble he would have. After all, he was a legend, and he would have no shortage of friends and family.

Annan followed Olmedo's idea... and it turned out that she was right. As soon as Agarwal was hanged, some people in the crowd, who were not sure whether they were enemies or friends, quietly left.

The rest of the people cheered. They knew what a legend was, and they also knew what an enemy was. But when legend and enemy were linked together, the fear of power made them retreat - but they didn't expect Annan to really do it.

They gathered in front of the square and were reluctant to leave for a long time.

It was not until Ingrid announced that in order to celebrate her revenge, all stores in Liberty City would offer discounts ranging from 2% to 5% that people rushed to buy the discounted goods.

The executioner dragged Agarwal's body up and handed it to the legion commander Losi to be sent to the city lord's mansion, and then quickly sent it to the Skeleton King's alchemy room for transformation.

After Annan and his eldest sister evacuated the crowd gathered outside the City Lord's Mansion, they brought Olmedo to the alchemy room.

The transformation of the Skeleton King was nearing completion. Amidst the thick, indissoluble aura of death, a skeleton was rising, lighting up two soul flames.

Then, the breath of death was like a surging black mist, swirling and condensing on the surface of the skeleton, transforming into a cloak and a staff.

The skeleton kneels before the Skeleton King.

"It is done. It retains the power of a 17th level wizard. Give me a drop of your blood."

Annan did as he was told without any doubt. The Skeleton King took the blood and put it into the soul fire in the skeleton's eye sockets.

The soul fire jumped a few times, and then it knelt in front of Annan to show its submission.

"Who are you?" Annan asked.

"The master's servant."

As it opened its mouth, its soul fire flickered.

"I mean when you were alive."

"Agarwal, the master's enemy."

"Do you remember what happened in the past?"

"I still have the memory of Agarwal. He was a fool who dared to be an enemy of his master."

Compared to Agarwal, Skeleton's strength is much lower, but he is very sensible.

Annan asked again: "Where are all your wealth?"

"Most of Agarwal's treasure is in the ring, which you have obtained, and some is in the New Capital and Breeze City."

"Breeze City?" Annan asked in confusion.

"Isn't Breeze City occupied by the ratmen?" Olmedo also asked.

The Skeleton Mage did not answer. Annan said, "She is also your master. What she says is what I say."

"My mistress, Agarwal has a secret room on the outskirts of Breeze City, where he keeps all the money he has plundered in Breeze City for more than a decade. But the rat people attacked, and he didn't dare to go back."

"Is he a coward?"

The soul fire of the Skeleton Mage flickered, as if searching his memory: "Undoubtedly, no mage would abandon his own mage tower. He doesn't even have the courage to fight. He is a legendary coward. The master is really powerful!"

It’s ironic that the undead that Agarwal transformed turned out to be a sycophant… or is that his nature?
"What is his relationship with the rat people?" Annan asked again.

"Master, the Stoun Ratman had contact with him, but he ignored it."

"Where's Chloe?"

"Agarwal suspects that Clo is a puppet of the Rat Man."

"How much strength does the new king have?"

"There are only three legends left, but master, be careful, the royal family still has a hidden card to turn the tables."

"Is your trump card as powerful as my crystal?" The Skeleton Mage shook his head.

Then there is nothing to worry about, and it is even a good thing to some extent... As long as Vitalig is pushed forward before Cloe can react, the kingdom's trump card will be his trump card.

All the questions have been asked, and now all that's left is to give it a new name.

"Just call him the Skeleton Mage." Annan said casually.

The Skeleton Mage raised his head and objected for the first time: "Master, as far as I know, this is not a suitable name."

"Then... Aga is fine."

The skeleton still seems to have some objections, but it’s better than “Skeleton Mage”.

Annan found a wizard robe from the magic ring and put it on it.

Agarwal just died, and an epic skeleton wizard appeared in Liberty City, which made people suspicious.

Let it guard the City Lord's Mansion first.

After bringing Aga out, Annan called the maid Abby, who was curious yet a little scared, and asked her to take Aga around to familiarize him with the environment.

Abby takes Aga away, and Annan looks at Olmedo.

"Let's do it in one go," she said.

……

After Agarwal's death, the Free Blades hiding in various towns regained their strength and pointed their swords at the several satellite towns outside the new capital that refused to surrender.

The Hellfire Legion, the Musketeer Legion, the Punishment Legion, the Foreign Aid Legion, the Alien Legion and more than a dozen knightly legions composed of the surrendered troops launched a general attack. The towns along the way either surrendered or surrendered after holding out for a few dozen minutes.

After conquering another city, Fermi grabbed the city lord by the collar and asked, "I'll ask you one last time, where is your main force!"

"We...we are the main force..."

The Howler, with the warriors of the Orc Tribe, followed the alien army and rushed forward to wipe out a town loyal to the kingdom.

When their knight captain was about to commit suicide, he was entangled in a weakness spell by the orc shaman, knocking off his sword and helmet.

With long flowing hair, the knight captain is actually a woman.

The goblins ran over with evil smiles and stripped her of her armor.

The female knight recalled the various legends about orcs and goblins raping young girls, and said in anger: "Kill me! I would rather die than be defiled by you!"

The goblins were bewildered, so they stripped off the precious armor and ran away.

The Howler came over and said, "According to the Prisoner Law of the Liberty City Code, we treat prisoners kindly. You can choose to surrender, join Liberty City, or give up resistance."

"I will not surrender to you!" the female knight roared.

The Howler said expressionlessly, "Then please go back. It won't be long before the kingdom returns to peace."

It walked away while the female knight was stunned.

The female knight stared blankly, and after the weakness spell dissipated, she got up and found that her companions had been stripped of their armor and weapons like her. The imagined scene of the town being breached and blood and fire everywhere did not happen. They did not commit any crime against the terrified townspeople, but only dragged away the nobles with bad reputations...

The prisoner law is a new rule added by the City Lord's Mansion... but it's not because of the alliance with Vitalig.

The original strategy of Liberty City was to take all the captured and occupied people as their own, but the price was that the land of 1,250 meters in diameter of Liberty City was overcrowded with nearly 100,000 people. The Gem Bay behind it sent hundreds of thousands of people.

Having too much food is not a good thing either...it will take Liberty City years to absorb so many people.

When the war is over, they will ask if anyone is willing to return home and send some of them back.

Correspondingly, Liberty City seemed to have received the blessing of the Speaker of the Senate, and it was very smooth to eliminate all the towns in Sunset Plains except the New Capital.

On December 12, the five major knightly orders and the surrendered troops arrived within thirty miles of the new capital.
