Ancient Tears BloodLine

"CLANG"CLANG" "CLANG"

Several clashing sounds resonate throughout the area. The Bandits were fighting against the warriors, those especially who went deeper into the inner area.

Rivers of blood flow; mutilated corpses can be seen all over the ground. One would puke at the sight of such a horrible scene.

It's impossible to recognise from the mutilated bodies whether they belong to bandits or warriors.

Such things have been taking place for the past two weeks.

Ever since the order came down from bandit Boss Soren, The bandit warriors wasted no time in acting against the warriors.

They knew their boss would reward the person who had the most kills. So they leave no stone unturned.

A similar situation happened with a bandit hunting warrior. Actually, they came here to find the culprit as per Fire Sword Team order.

But things quickly turned around when they took a step inside the inner area of the insect forest.

Out of nowhere, bandits launched a barrage of attacks against them. In response, the warriors fought back. But the mounting of corpses increased on the bandit hunting warriors' side.

The bandits knew how to make use of their environment to kill the enemy. While the bandit hunting warriors entered the inner area without prior knowledge.

As a result, the number of teams entering the inner area on the bandit hunting warriors side was drastically reduced.

This sudden action of bandits caused a chain reaction. which quickly reached everyone's ears in the outer area.

Many of the survivors start to flee; they don't want to take part in the Fire Sword Team's mission.

Some of them even started rumours that the Black Fist team was annihilated by the Bandits.

And the bandits' sudden actions were also tuned with rumors. The survivors didn't refute the words. As most of them were trainee warriors, it didn't take much time to convince the special trainee team in the inner area.

Quickly, the news started to spread like wildfire. It soon reached the ears of the five leaders. Even Mateo Roth started to believe the rumors. At first, he didn't take the reports seriously.

He thought his warriors must have come across some bandit maniacs. These manics won't care about the rules set by their bandit boss. These maniacs would kill any of them, it seems.

Mateo also thought this must be the case. Why would bandits attack him? He is the one who has actually been helping them since he came here.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

He knew the bandits were smart enough to not forget that. Besides, he also had a hunch that his family must have informed the bandits' boss about him.

So there is no way for bandits to retaliate against him. But soon, his belief started to crumble when numerous reports started to pile up on his desk in a few weeks.

The insect forest itself is a tough place to survive. It would take plenty of time to move from one point to another. So Mateo Roth was actually receiving delayed reports.

He wasn't able to draw any conclusion from these reports. He doesn't know why the bandits are retaliating against him.

Soon he came to learn from one of the reports of the survivors.

One bandit leader they came across spit out some information before killing his team members.

After learning the news, Mateo Roth's expression condensed. Because the bandit leader spoke, it was an order given from their bandit boss.

He wanted to convey the information to his family. But they won't believe a report from a single survivor. So he ordered Carla's testimonials of survivors as much as possible.

If it's truly an order given by the bandit boss, then he didn't need to worry that much. Because his family will take direct action, using that chance, he will return to his family.

As the days passed, Carla was successfully able to collect similar reports.

After getting it from Carla, Mateo didn't waste any time in informing his father.

But the result made him disappointed. His family would reach a conclusion after the council meeting. Because such a sudden twist of events made him forget about the Black Fist Team.

As he begins to suspect that something is wrong with the bandit boss and his black fist team, they bear the brunt of it.With that, his suspicion about the other four team leaders was also removed from his heart.

Now that the bandit leader started to make noise, he knew the city lord wouldn't remain silent. And it will be a matter of time before they put out a notice.

This shocking development from the insect forest quickly affected the lives of the people who lived in Iron Post City. Fear and despair spread among the common folks.

At first, there was a small migration due to the failing economic condition of the iron post city. Soon it turned into a large migration when all the weak teams joined under the banner of five strong teams.

And now, with the current development, everyone is expecting a mass exodus. It was fine when the City Lord Mansion chose to remain silent. People's only source of belief was bandit hunting teams.

In particular, the five strongest teams, though their recent actions have caused displeasure among the masses. But still, they are the strongest line of defence acting against banditry.

When the news swept away that bandits were taking on the strongest team, It sent strong messages to everyone residing in Iron Post City.

It doesn't matter whether it's rich or poor. Everyone knew this was the huge turning point in their bandit hunting mission.

If the five strongest teams fail, then it would need the city lord to personally step up. If he still chooses to remain silent at that point, the mass exodus of people is a foregone conclusion.

The city was swarmed by reporters and streamers from various cities.Instead of assisting the masses, they are obsessed with creating content.

Whether it's negative or positive information, the news is broadcast to other cities. Yet the only thing that remained unchanged was the city lord mansion's inaction.

Which only sends negative signals to other cities. If they have such a city lord, their cities' result will be nothing different from that of an iron post city.

Weak-hearted people got cold shivers going down their spines.

Soon, no one knows whether it's the immense pressure made by Media or something else.

The City Lord Manion put out a statement: 1 million credit points will be rewarded to those who collect the heads of bandit leaders residing in the inner area of the insect forest.

Another shocking piece of news swept away the city. The City Lord Mansion's sudden awakening from their sleep surprised people. The news reports and streams started to pick up the news.

1 million credit points is not a joke. Only the cores of elite monsters are sold above a million points.

Adventurer warriors were those who made calculations with wide open mouths. Even warriors who came to know the iron post started making plans.

No one knows that a statement put out by the city lord will soon attract another wave of adventurers to their city.

In particular, the criminals and warriors who are in desperate need of money will surely make use of this opportunity.

When this piece of news reached certain strong teams, it made them uncomfortable.

"SMASH" "SMASH" "SMASH"

In a rage, Mateo Roth smashed nearby tables and flower pots. The broken pieces can be seen all over the ground. Things at this moment were going exactly the opposite to my wishes.

At first, there was trouble in the insect forest. Second, his family won't make a decision until the council meeting. Now, thirdly, the city lord started to move.

He had spent so much time gaining the status of the strongest team in this city. Then he made his team subdue other weak teams one after another.

Now the statement put out by the City Lord's Mansion will make him start from the beginning. Which is that he is not at all ready to do that.

Carla and the other team members chose to remain silent at this moment. The City Lord Mansion's move not only affected the Fire Sword Team. It also made their four teams wrinkle their eyebrows.

Morgan Buck is the leader of the Igneous Earth team.He chuckled after hearing the news. Even for someone from an influential family like his, such an amount is not easy to take out.

Numerous calculations run in his mind. Suddenly, he thought of a deadly idea. to go back to the inner area with his team.

Morgan thought about killing bandit leaders as much as possible.

He is already dreaming of making at least 50 million. He just needs to collect 50 heads for that. But suddenly, a flash of hesitation flashes in his eyes.

Along with the other three leaders, he agreed to cooperate with Mateo Roth.

"Harumph," he snorts after recalling Mateo's face in his mind.

At that moment, he made his decision to not let go of this opportunity. If he can collect 100 heads, then he will be rewarded with 1 billion.

This amount will help him purchase high-grade resources for a breakthrough.

After gaining some clarity, he decided to inform his friend, Caleb Green. He would not let go of this opportunity.

He needs to convince Caleb before a new wave of warriors comes to the city.
