945: Fish is hooked

Wang Chen faced the White-haired Necromancer, whose smile was extremely forced.

He wished he could tear this Human Race Strong into ten thousand pieces, but the opponent's powerful strength made him realize this was an unrealistic fantasy.

He could only barely force a smile now, praying for the opponent's leniency, hoping that his clansmen could leave this battlefield before the upcoming battle erupted.

"This is your home. If anyone should leave, it should be me, right?"

Wang Chen's expression was very strange as he looked at the White-haired Necromancer's cautious demeanor.

Though he didn't want to admit it, he still felt a certain satisfaction at being able to scare the inherently brutal Necromancer into such cautious subservience.

"This..."

Hearing Wang Chen's playful words, the White-haired Necromancer's expression grew even more unpleasant.

You still know this is our home?

Then hurry up and leave!

He roared in his heart, but his outward demeanor became even more humble.

"Respected Human Race Strong, your strength is as mighty as the sun and moon. Why bother with humble beings like us?"

"Our strength poses no threat to you. To avoid offending your sight later, please allow my clansmen to leave this place."

The White-haired Necromancer spoke to Wang Chen with extreme humility.

He had long seen Wang Chen's malice towards them, or rather, Wang Chen hadn't even bothered to hide it.

Although the other party said he wouldn't act against him and his clansmen tonight, that was only for tonight.

The Guardian Array's defensive barrier was now shattered, and the core of the array was also severely damaged. In a short time, the Guardian Array simply couldn't be reactivated.

The White-haired Necromancer now wished he could immediately lead all his clansmen, no matter the cost, to relocate into Canglan City.

"Don't worry, I always keep my word. Since I said I wouldn't attack you tonight and would spare your and your clansmen's lives, I absolutely won't break my promise."

"Moreover, when the two Strongs from Canglan City come and fight me, I won't let the aftermath of the battle affect you either."

Wang Chen smiled faintly, looking at the White-haired Necromancer with a very sincere expression.

What he said was from the heart. These Necromancers represented a considerable amount of experience points. If they were to die from being caught in the crossfire during the battle, his loss would be significant.

Furthermore, fishing is addictive, and he wouldn't be satisfied with just one time.

Hearing Wang Chen's words, a strange glint flashed in the White-haired Necromancer's eyes, but he still respectfully lowered his head.

Although he didn't know what this Human Race Strong truly wanted to do, the White-haired Necromancer knew very well that since the other party had said so, if he raised any further objections, he would be courting death!

"Respected Human Race Strong, thank you for your leniency!"

The White-haired Necromancer said respectfully, then silently stood to the side, no longer speaking.

Seeing him behave, Wang Chen felt a bit bored, shook his head, and leaned back in his chair, gazing at the distant sky.

"I hope the Strongs sent by Canglan City are strong enough."

He silently anticipated in his heart.

...

...

"What's the situation at Sand Dune Town?"

"Why is there no movement at all?"

"Could it be that the Human True Lord has already broken through Sand Dune Town's Guardian Array, slaughtered all the clansmen in Sand Dune Town, and left?"

In the dark night, two rapidly flying figures suddenly stopped in mid-air, both looking solemnly at the distant hilly area.

These two figures were Rondo, a Ninth Stage Middle Stage Necromancer, and Sosis, a Ninth Stage Early Stage Necromancer, both from Canglan City.

"The surrounding natural magic Qi is extremely stable, and there seems to have been no high-intensity battle, and the scent of blood in the wind is extremely faint."

Sosis closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then opened them and said gravely:

"There are only two possibilities: one is that Sand Dune Town sent us the wrong message, but Sand Dune Town clearly wouldn't be so childish about such a matter. So, obviously, only the last possibility remains: that Human True Lord Strong has already broken through Sand Dune Town and left."

"Impossible!"

Rondo shook his head upon hearing this, saying with immense confidence:

"From the moment Sand Dune Town sent out the distress signal until we arrived here, less than a quarter of an hour has passed. It's absolutely impossible for that Human True Lord to have broken through Sand Dune Town's Guardian Array so quickly."

"Don't look at Sand Dune Town's Guardian Array being built to completely withstand a Peak Eighth Stage, but with the Guardian Array fully activated and the clansmen coordinating from within, it can at least withstand a Ninth Stage Early Stage for half an hour."

"So that's it..."

Sosis nodded upon hearing this; in his opinion, his previous conjecture was indeed a bit far-fetched.

"Could it be that the Human True Lord, unable to break through for a long time and knowing that Sand Dune Town had sought our help, chose to retreat to avoid fighting us?"

After thinking for a moment, Sosis speculated.

"That should be the case."

Rondo nodded, moved his body, and continued forward:

"We'll know the specific situation once we enter Sand Dune Town."

Soon.

Rondo and Sosis flew above the hilly area, their eyes clearly able to see the situation of the Sand Dune Town gathering place.

However, the scene they saw made them both freeze simultaneously.

Thousands of clansmen were standing close together, obediently in the central square of the gathering place, and beneath the Mother Goddess Statue in front of these clansmen, a handsome and extraordinary Human Race youth was seated on a chair.

On either side of this Human Race youth, the Sand Dune Town Chief and the Deputy Commanders of the hunting team stood by like servants.

This scene was as if the clansmen of Sand Dune Town were worshipping that Human Race youth.

Upon seeing this bizarre scene, the expressions on Rondo and Sosis's faces grew solemn.

"What's going on?"

"Does this Human True Lord possess some soul-snatching ability? How could he so easily control all the clansmen of Sand Dune Town?!"

Sosis frowned, saying with some surprise and uncertainty.

It wasn't his fault for thinking so; the free-floating magic Qi in the surrounding world was extremely calm, which meant that no high-intensity battle had erupted before, and the scent of blood in the air was very faint, indicating that there weren't many casualties.

This couldn't help but make Sosis suspect that the Human True Lord below possessed the power to control minds.

"That shouldn't be the case. The clansmen below are just intimidated."

Rondo observed more carefully than Sosis. He noticed that many of the clansmen secretly peeking had hope and excitement in their eyes, and the Sand Dune Town Chief was even secretly winking at him for help.

"First, lure this damned Human Race out to prevent the upcoming battle from affecting the clansmen of Sand Dune Town; they can't withstand the aftermath of our battle."

"Sosis, if this Human True Lord is despicable enough to use the clansmen of Sand Dune Town as shields, pay attention to protecting them."

Rondo instructed Sosis, then moved his body, flying above Sand Dune Town, and sternly questioned from above:

"Your Excellency, as a Human True Lord Strong, why do you bully the weak and attack the ordinary clansmen of our race's gathering place? Are you trying to tear up the peace treaty?"
