Chapter 312: Chapter 269: Village Defense Battle (5)
Three Iron Sabers unleashed nine slashes in an instant.
BANG BANG BANG!
BANG BANG BANG!
BANG BANG BANG!
Hu Cai’s Iron Armor shattered in a second.
He held his Great Axe aloft, not daring to bring it down.
"I... can I surrender?"
"Fine."
With the last three Heroes captured, the other Beastman Soldiers and civilians completely broke.
They scattered and fled.
Tang Ruan clearly hadn’t had her fill.
Zhao Chi had boosted her Defense too high, and with the additional Defense Bonus from her outfit, the Beastmen’s Attacks could barely break through.
Furthermore, Tang Ruan’s Jade Skin Armor could recover 1% of its Durability every second.
If her defense wasn’t broken, Tang Ruan couldn’t get injured.
If she wasn’t injured, her Talent couldn’t be satisfied.
She was getting genuinely anxious.
"Don’t run! Keep hitting me!"
But Tang Ruan’s Taunt was only a Basic Spirit Technique.
With the Beastmen’s Morale completely shattered, it had little Effect.
Zhao Chi came closer. "Don’t worry, I’ll help you take care of that tonight."
Hearing this, Tang Ruan replied with a hint of bashful coyness, "If my Lord helps me personally, that’s a hundred times better than them!"
The Beastmen ran helter-skelter, but their Race had low agility.
The Female Soldiers easily caught up to them all and took them captive.
Checking the Time, just over half an hour had passed.
It was a true steamroll.
He opened the system.
And checked the family group chat.
There were three calls for help.
But their Levels and Combat Power were very high. Zhao Chi wanted to help, but he was powerless to do so.
’Guess I’ll take care of my own business first.’
Next up was the looting.
Wu Tianxing’s territory was a Medium-sized Village.
When Zhao Chi led his people inside, he saw that the Beastman villagers had all prepared to resist.
The village’s ten defense towers were all packed with Beastman villagers.
More Beastman villagers were lying in ambush on the nearby rooftops and behind the walls of Buildings.
A few of the leaders among them were extremely defiant.
"Get lost! There are still 400 Beastmen in our village! We’ll drive you out even if we die!"
"You killed our Lord! We will avenge our Lord!"
"Don’t even think about capturing us! We will never be slaves!"
"Despicable Humans! Scram and leave our territory!"
"Get out!"
"Wait, look... why are there only 100 of them?"
"Huh? You’re right..."
As the Beastmen shouted, they realized Zhao Chi’s side didn’t have many people.
They gradually began to get ideas.
Even though these Beastmen weren’t Soldiers and had no combat Bonuses, they still had the advantage in numbers.
Besides, they all believed that Beastmen were stronger than Humans, and that even a civilian Beastman could defeat a Human Soldier.
What’s more, their opponents were 100 Female Soldiers?
Weren’t these lambs to the slaughter?
The expressions on the Beastman villagers’ faces changed.
Their Morale rose with their newfound confidence.
Zhao Chi sighed.
’Dealing with them would be easy.’
’But they’re only valuable alive.’
’They’re all money.’
So, he had to crush this idea of theirs as quickly as possible.
"Tang Ruan, can you precisely pull those leaders over here?"
Tang Ruan nodded. "I can. I can perform a Precision Taunt."
"Qi Yue, as soon as Tang Ruan pulls them, kill them immediately."
"Understood." Qi Yue drew her saber.
"Begin, Tang Ruan!"
"Okay!"
Soon, under the influence of the Taunt, over thirty Beastmen came charging, roaring furiously.
A few even leaped directly from the defense towers, grimacing in pain as they landed, and charged forward with a limp.
Only a few of them wore Leather Armor; the majority were in Cloth Clothing.
Before Qi Yue, such Beastmen were just meat on the chopping block.
Qi Yue’s saber rose and fell.
A silver moonlight flashed.
Not one of the thirty-plus Beastmen survived; they were all reduced to bloody chunks.
The restless Beastmen instantly calmed down.
Zhao Chi asked, "Anyone else?"
None of the Beastmen dared to speak.
Zhao Chi pointed at the Beastmen on the defense towers. "Get down."
The Beastmen immediately scrambled down from the defense towers.
’Good.’
’Looks like that cowed them.’
Zhao Chi nodded. "Those who wish to surrender, drop your Weapons and walk out slowly. Those who don’t will all be dead in a moment."
All the Beastmen walked out.
It was true that Beastmen were unwilling to be slaves, but they were even more unwilling to die.
Gu Qing’s silks weren’t enough to bind so many Beastmen.
Fortunately, this was a territory, so there was plenty of rope.
Using the materials on hand, they captured a large number of Beastmen.
The final step: looting and hauling.
There weren’t many Supplies, and they were mostly basic resources.
Not much of value.
No matter, basic resources were also useful. They would take everything.
Just then, Qi Yue approached.
"My Lord, there are many prisoners in the two storehouses over there, both Humans and Elves."
She pointed to a Building in the distance.
Finding prisoners was normal.
They were also a decent prize.
"Take me to see. The rest of you, move the Supplies. Gu Qing, you’re in charge of managing the transport."
Qi Yue led Zhao Chi to the inner storehouse.
There were no goods inside the storehouse, but there were over 100 prisoners, all male.
It was about half Humans and half Elves.
They were all tied up, their gazes fixed on Zhao Chi and Tang Ruan, their eyes filled with confusion and unease.
Near the storehouse door lay several corpses, clearly people who had been killed just a short while ago.
They were likely killed to intimidate the others, a warning to make an example of them.
Zhao Chi checked their Identities. They were all listed as captives. No problem there.
It seemed they had all been captured not long ago.
No matter where they came from, they belonged to Zhao Chi now.
As for how to deal with them, that could be decided later. First, they would be transported back to his territory.
There was another storehouse next to it.
The moment he entered, he was hit by the reek of urine.
There were also a few frightened screams.
There were also several corpses at the entrance, blood pooling on the ground.
Over 100 prisoners were crammed inside, all female—about half Human women and half Elf Females.
They were all tightly bound, squatting or sitting on the ground. The floor was wet with numerous puddles.
