While Hui Teng was leading the subjects away, Zhou Zhou threw the recruitment books he looted from both the monster ranch and the time ruin into the summoning gate.
Using the shrieking howl technique, Qin We took care of the summoned sword shield soldiers, the pudao soldiers, the elemental archers and the elves, 4,230 of them in total.
Looting the corpses, Zhou Zhou added 8,460 Green bronze-tier mist cores to his treasury.
[Phantom Storage: 7,286,930 / 10,000,000]
'Even if Lu Chong was only an advance-tier combatant, I still won't be able to push him to his limit.'
Seeing the amount of promotion energy in the phantom storage, he knew a lot more would be needed to push the hero to his limit.
Done with the summoning gate, Blazing Sun brought his soldiers to his mansion before sending for Theresa.
Placing the map of the Desolate Gabi on his table, he pointed at the territory of the Kobold Tribe.
"This here is the business of the day."
"In the days to come, the Desolate Gabi and the Thorn Dune would keep us busy until the next lord of all races events in 2 weeks' time."
"Just like yesterday, Bai Yung will supervise while you 3 take care of the enemies."
"Understood?"
"Yes, my lord."
The aforementioned soldiers responded as they accepted the order.
Knock! Knock!
"Come in."
Hearing the knock on his door, Zhou Zhou called Theresa in.
"My lord."
Theresa bowed towards Zhou Zhou.
"How has your stay being in the city?"
Zhou Zhou asked his city's highest skilled professional.
"Welcoming."
Theresa answered.
"That's good."
"I called you here because I'm in need of your skill."
Zhou Zhou said to Theresa while his soldiers listened by the side.
"My lord must have worn a high level void mask since I can't seem to divine about your need."
"But I will do my best to fulfill whatever you need of me."
Theresa said.
Excited at the confirmation of the authenticity of the void mask, Zhou Zhou told Theresa about the Kobold Tribe.
"So, can you deal with the vengeful souls?"
He asked as the Seer.
"I can, my lord."
Theresa gave her response.
And after breaking through to the Extraordinary-tier intermediate grade, she was brimming with confidence to handle whatever comes up against a Green bronze-tier territory.
"Alright"
"Prepare yourself; you'll be leaving with my soldiers."
Zhou Zhou said to Theresa before looking at Bai Yung.
"She's Theresa, and she will be coming along with you to deal with the Kobold Tribe."
"Protect her."
He said to his city's commander.
"I will, my lord."
"Welcome to the team, Theresa."
Bai Yung gave his word to his lord before greeting Theresa.
"It's my pleasure, commander Bai."
Theresa did the city's military salute which signifies giving your heart to the city.
"You're a natural."
Bai Yung smiled as he returned Theresa's salute.
"That will be all."
Zhou Zhou said, ending the meeting.
"Yes, my lord."
The subjects of Blazing Sun City said before taking their leave.
Completing his trade with Ling'er for the day, Zhou Zhou trolled around his city.
He saw Obadiah and Douma still building the irrigation ditch. They were assisted by the 2 New farmers and 10 Apprentices who were now professional farmers.
Most architects on their free time spent their time in the bathhouse. Resting in the soothing hot water, they were able to relax their body after hours of never-ending work.
A few chefs moved about in the newly designed mechanostrider as they personally served breakfast to important individuals in the city.
Every other subject had to head to the city's restaurants to get something to eat. As for cooking their own meal, none of them were interested in that.
The bankers under Bao Xiu'er went about educating the subjects about the loan system of the Blazing City Reserve and its tax system.
The tailors spent most of their time sewing new clothes for the subjects, bed sheets for the bed built by the carpenters, curtains for the residents built by the architects, and mending the clothes of the subjects.
With 1,170 Subjects in the city, the city was beginning to look lively.
"I guess I would leave Zhao Changshou and his team to continue building the city alone than hire extra hands from the Aurora Kingdom."
Zhou Zhou said after seeing the relationship being forged between the architects.
Coming to the blacksmith shop, he knew it had to be upgraded after seeing the amount of blacksmiths moving about.
"After the architects, they have the highest number of professionals in the city."
He muttered before receiving a seat.
A couple of minutes later, Carter Jim honored his summon.
"Has the city's vice informed you of the new weapons to be built?"
Zhou Zhou asked after nodding at Jim's greeting.
"Yes, my lord."
"I've instructed some of my subordinates to handle it."
Carter Jim responded.
"Alright"
"Here, you and the other Yellow gold-tier blacksmiths should study it."
Handing the White silver-tier flame demon wolf king fury armor and the 3 Diamond-tier dragon bane armors to Carter Jim, Zhou Zhou said.
"This!"
Seeing the attributes of the armors, Carter Jim was shocked.
But what he was most amazed at what the weaker White silver-tier flame demon wolf king fury armor.
'Even master who is an Extraordinary-tier blacksmith can't create such armor with so many enhancements!'
He thought before bowing to his lord.
"Thank you, my lord!"
"I and the other blacksmiths won't let you down!"
"I hope so."
Zhou Zhou said before leaving the blacksmith shop.
...
50 minutes after the soldiers left the city while riding on Nezario, they arrived at the Desolate Gabi Region.
Theresa stared at the clouds in amazement as she experienced the feeling of riding on a dragon for the first time in her life.
"Look, fog monsters has occupied that Kunt City will attacked!"
Huang Sai said as he stared towards the ground.
"We'll take care of them after we take down this region 4 days from today."
Bai Yung said as Nezario closed in on the Kobold Tribe.
A few seconds later, they arrived above the territory of the Kobold Tribe.
"We're here."
Aegon said as Nezario hovered 150km above the ground.
"Can you jump down?"
Bai Yung asked Theresa.
"I can fly down."
Theresa said.
"Alright"
"How well can you pacify about 80 to 90 vengeful souls in a second?"
Bai Yung asked after remembering Theresa might not be aware of the combat speed of his soldiers.
"I can pacify any amount of vengeful souls a thousand kilometers around me."
Theresa pondered for a second before responding.
"That's good."
"We'll begin immediately when you're ready."
Bai Yung was impressed.
"I'm ready."
Theresa said.
As soon Theresa spoke, Qin We, Huang Sai and Sun Can immediately threw themselves off Nezario's back.
The kobold soldiers standing two to three meters from the ground with dog heads and the bodies of humans appeared in Sun Can view.
"A pity the lord of the city isn't outside, I would've one-shot it."
He said as he pulled out 3 arrows from his quiver before nocking them on the string of his bow.
Releasing his hand, he shot at the farthest kobold soldiers he could aim.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
While the soldiers were still in mid-air, 30 Arrows over 8 Meters in length fell into the city below like asteroids.
A third of the city plunged into ruin in an instant, with over 60 kobold soldiers sent to Thanatos.
Looking diagonally beside him, Qin We saw a giant Huang Sai materializing an 8 Meter long arrow on his bow before releasing his string.
As soon the arrow was released, it exploded into 30 more arrows before hurling down at the city below him.
"What has the lord created?!"
'Won't he be able to level an entire city if he shot horizontally at it rather than diagonally?'
He felt terrified at the destruction caused by the humongous arrows of sorrow.
