《Armipotent 》Chapter 394: City's Steele
Advertisement
The army looked toward their Lord in admiration. It took them great effort to break into the city, but the man was here subduing half of the zombie's army alone by himself here.
What shocked them, even more, was that he did not kill the zombies. He cut all the zombies' limbs for them to kill. It showed that their Lord was caring about them.
Su Hong looked toward the Lord in admiration mixed with envy. He desired to be in that place. Why was Tang Shaoyang, not him?
"What's that?" Suddenly Su Hong heard a voice that immediately turned into a ruckus. He immediately found out the cause of the ruckus, it was something that was made of flesh.
From the appearance, it was clearly not a creature or even a zombie. However, the thing was made of flesh, he could see the trickling blood from the big hole. Something unknown appeared before them, it was normal for them to panic.
Even Su Hong's complexion paled at the sight of this thing. Zombies were enough to cause big distress to them, now a new thing emerged. The bulging pinky veins that decorated the thing only made it look scarier.
"Quiet!" Wei Xi shouted toward his men, he raised his voice to the top. The noise calmed down as everyone had their attention to their Vice General.
"Don't you hear the order? Kill the Zombies!" Only after that, the people moved to kill the powerless zombies.
Many of them tried to take a peek at the thing, but many avoided the unknown thing. Some were curious, but some would rather avoid the disgusting thing.
Yu Shun watched everything from the top, it confused him, "Why don't you kill the zombies by yourself, My Lord? Don't you need to level up as well?"
"These zombies barely help me to level up, it's better given to them so they can level up instead. The war just started, we should get them prepared for a bigger battle!" Tang Shaoyang expressed his thoughts to the young man.

Yu Shun was itching to ask Tang Shaoyang's current level, but he knew that it was something he should ask. He shook his head and guessed himself, "He must be over level 200 if these zombies barely help him."
The stage-2 and stage-3 zombies could give him a big experience if there were thousands of them. It was him who was currently at Level 181. However, The Lord said it barely helped him to level up. It was easy to guess, Tang Shaoyang should be over level 200.
'How can he reach that high-level, really!?' Yu Shun thought to himself.
Soon the thousands of zombies were killed. The first official clash against the Daian Kingdom ended with victory.
Tang Shaoyang watched everything through the Spirit Eyes. When the last zombie was killed, he was about to walk into the air until he heard a notification.
[Congratulations! You have taken Jiaxing City from the Daian Kingdom!]
[Jiaxing City will be under your authority until the winner of the Territory War Game is decided!]
[Protect The City Steele from the invasion to maintain the authority!]
"City Steele?" Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice. He was about to look around, but then a red arrow projection appeared in his eyes. The red arrow pointed in a direction.
He looked toward the direction where the arrow pointed at. The arrow was pointing at a building, shorter than his main base, but the building was firmly standing even though the surrounding buildings were damaged to such an extent.
Tang Shaoyang followed the red arrow while Yu Shun followed him, "Where are you going, Boss!?" He immediately covered his mouth. He was not used to the change so sometimes he would call him Boss.
'If the others hear me, I will get scolded…' he thought to himself while following Tang Shaoyang. Fortunately, the people were too busy killing the zombies, so no one noticed.

Tang Shaoyang stood in front of the building. The building was the arrow pointed at. He entered the building and found black Steele. It was more like a small pillar at the center of the first floor.
He approached the black Steele, and information appeared in his eyes.
[Jiaxing City's Steele]
[Protect the City Steele to maintain your authority over Jiaxing City!]
Tang Shaoyang frowned at how the game worked. With their limited people, they had to protect the city's Steele. That meant he had to divide their force if he wanted to look or attack another official city.
They were at a disadvantage in the game for sure. It was the complete opposite of the Zombie Kingdom. The Zombie Kingdom had millions of zombies, added with the Zombie Consort. They could afford a big army to protect one city.
On top of the number disadvantage, there was a time limit as well. With a limited amount of time, he has to conquer at least four other official cities in thirty days to win the Territory War Game.
This thing disturbed his plan to keep marching toward the opponent, "I have to make a change of plan…"
*** ***
Zhang Mengyao and Wei Xi stood side by side as ten Captains reported the aftermath.
The ten Captains were Tian Donghai, Qin Shoushan, Su Hong, Cao Yuntai, Fan Rui, Zhao Zhong, Hu Feng, Fu Dandan, Dai Wenqian, and Tao He. These ten were the selected Tarrior appointed to be a 100-men commander.
Ten Captains reported in turn, reporting to the Supreme General the aftermath. Mostly about casualties, and they suffered zero casualties from their first clash against the Daian Kingdom.
Hearing the report, Zhang Mengyao was relieved to hear this. The first clash against the zombie horde was disastrous. It became one of her darkest memories as many lives were gone because of her.
While she managed to overcome the guilt because of the support of Tang Shaoyang. That memory still haunted her even now.
Zhang Mengyao then glanced at Kang Xue. She was asking about the Healer Division.
Kang Xue signaled an okay gesture as she smiled in return, "We are good, zero death. However, this is their first war, so they are exhausted, mentally and physically. They need some time to overcome their first experiences in the war."
"I am afraid it's not for me to decide," Zhang Mengyao shook her head as he pointed at the flesh thing, "That flesh is Zombie Consort, an exclusive facility for the zombie kingdom. Lord Shaoyang informed that the Daian Kingdom produced their army with Zombie Consort. It can produce a stage-3 zombie with level 60! We have to hunt these things down quickly before they can produce too many zombies for us to handle."
The ten Captains, Wei Xi, and Kang Xue were shocked to hear this. If zombies could be produced, then it was an alarm for humans to eradicate the zombies before these zombies took over the world.
At this moment, Heron came out from the shadow and stood next to the ten Captains, "General Zhang, General Wei, Commander Kang, and Wen. Lord Shaoyang wants four of you to come. This is important! Please follow me!"
"You three go ahead, I am going to arrange for the [Spirit Summoning] first!" Zhang Mengyao told Wei Xi, Kang Xue, and Wen to go first.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
