Warlord

Chapter 60:



Saurun was in a very bad mood, caused by a fight on the way that had been started by a non-human creature.

Knowing that Zero was taking Leah to Remutt, he called the team together and drove off Z7.

If all went well, Sauron would be able to visit the colony the day after his arrival at Remutt.

If things go this way, don’t think about the ruins of Lampez and don’t know Sue and Ben.

He and Leah would be detained by Sauron and taken back to the headquarters of the Dark Council.

But there is no such word as’ if ‘in life.

Sauron was “late” because they had encountered a swarm of living corpses on the road.

It was not by chance that Zero and Teddy saw corpses moving around in the night camp outside the outskirts of Silver Tree City. The living corpses of the Silver Tree City and the others who had migrated from who knew where quietly gathered in the ruins of a city on their way to Remutt.

Sauron had been on the hunt day and night, and at night the living corpses roaming along the highway smelled the fresh flesh of the members of Sauron’s band, and that was the first time they had encountered a battle.

Of course, the hundred or so living corpses were not a match for Saurun’s team at all.

The battle ended not long after it started. Saurun did not care and ordered the group to move on.

He did not think that there would be more living corpses attracted to the ruins nearby when they heard the gunshot.

So on the second encounter, Sauron faced hundreds and thousands of living corpses.

However, this way, Saurun would not be delayed for too long.

However, the invaders had high-level corpses such as the butcher and the Ripper among them. There were also quite a few elite monsters like them.

It had to be known that regardless of whether it was the butcher or the Ripper, every living corpse would naturally not produce many of these types of high-level goods.

And among the living corpses that came that night, the Butcher and the Ripper had a total of twenty.

Different from the butcher-like monster that was like a human tank, the Ripper was short in stature. Its appearance was no different from an ordinary living corpse, but its bones were highly mutated.

Any part of the Ripper’s body’s skeleton could be transformed into a sharp bone blade that could easily tear apart an armored chariot, and their agility and speed were beyond the butcher’s reach.

In some cases, the Ripper was far more dangerous than the Butcher.

For example, the second encounter with the living corpse, the Ripper, who was in the same species, only launched a surprise attack when it was close to Saurun’s group.

Using their companions as cannon fodder brought pressure to Saurun’s side.

In the end, it was still Saurun himself who took action, forcing the living corpses to retreat for the time being.

However, the scouts quickly sent a message, and the other group of corpses had already gathered and started moving towards the highway.

Knowing that his forces were insufficient to exterminate more living corpses, Saurun reluctantly gave the order to evade, and the group retreated all the way into Silver Tree City.

Using the cover of the city’s buildings, Saurun’s team and the living corpses engaged in a three-day tug-of-war in Silver Tree City.

After no one could do anything to each other, the living corpse retreated.

Saurun did not dare to travel through the night while the soldiers in the team were almost cut in half.

They started out at night, and in the meantime Sauron sent out tracking expert Kabu.

Sauron’s original intention was to let Kabu find out the distribution of the living corpses along the way, so that he wouldn’t fight the living corpses for no apparent reason, just like last time.

Unexpectedly, after Kabu left, he discovered a strange phenomenon.

The tracking experts followed the tracks of the living corpses to the ruins where they lived. They discovered that an area of the ruins was heavily guarded by high-level monsters such as the butcher and the Ripper.

Curious, Kabu used a nearby high-rise for long-range reconnaissance, the scene from the multiples projecting directly through the Dark Council’s channels onto Sauron’s tactical board.

So Sauron went to a scene he would never forget in his life.

Countless living corpses were gnawing at each other and devouring each other in a building.

Limbs, entrails, intestines, and brains sprayed everywhere.

That bloody scene was enough to make people with even more nerves unable to eat for three days.

Sauron’s nerves weren’t thin, but they weren’t big enough to ignore the images.

The strangeness of the living corpse had been reported to headquarters by Sauron, and this was not his main task, so Sauron did not delve into the unusual activity of the living corpse.

After this small interlude, Saurun led the group on their way back, and the expert trackers who returned rested for two days before reappearing.

Not long after that, Saurun received a ‘silent instruction’ regarding the unusual movements of the living corpse.

Saurun knew clearly that if such a large number of corpses were to cause trouble, the bases or companies within three thousand kilometers of the border would be finished.

The masters of the Dark Council did not intend to alert the nearby companies, so Saurun naturally did not worry about that either.

As far as he was concerned, this place was as remote as a rural area. Even if everyone died, it would be of no concern to him, even if his family had a small mining base in this area.

Thus, in the presence of Rem’s second in command, Saurun did not mention that a biochemical storm was brewing over a thousand kilometers behind him.

What concerned Saurun more now was the movements of Zero and Leigh.

Looking at the photo on the board, Sean revealed a friendly smile, “So you’re looking for the two of them. You’ve asked the right person.”

This was the best news that Saurun had heard in the past week. A rare smile appeared on the young man’s face.

The city in which Ron’s company is based is called the Rough Reef, a city that stands on the edge of the sea.

Because of the geology, the city couldn’t build an underground base like Remutt.

Ron had to install a variety of radiation purifiers in the city to reduce the impact of surface radiation on city residents.

Fifty years after the Cataclysm, even the average person’s resistance to radiation has increased by many times.

Thus, although he lived on the surface, he could barely survive by relying on the purification equipment.

However, the average life expectancy of the residents on the surface would be about a third shorter than that of the residents on the base, and they would also be infected with all sorts of strange diseases.

However, in this turbulent era, being able to cover one’s head with a single tile was already considered heaven, so the residents of the Angry Reef city didn’t have much of a grudge against them.

Zero and Leah arrived in the city yesterday noon, which is not like Remutt and has no strict access rules.

Ron’s system was lax, with the exception of the company’s headquarters, which was guarded by soldiers, and the sheriff was the only one in the city who maintained order.

Of course, you don’t expect a few sheriff to do anything.

Typically, these security officers simply walked through the streets.

Thus, the city of Rakhine Reef could be said to be a free city, but it could also be said to be a chaotic city.

Leah was left in a hotel run by the official Ron Company.

It was about thirty percent more expensive than an ordinary hotel, but no one dared cause trouble in it. Leah would be safer here than in a private hotel full of snakes and dragons.

Zero will be registered in the hall of the guild, and only by temporarily registering in the hall of every city will the mercenary or hunter receive the information and tasks from the union.

After completing the registration process, Zero applied to meet with the trade union chairman, hoping to get to the top of Ron’s company in order to get information about the company or organization that might cure Leah.

However, there was no news about this appointment until today.

Zero had to put it aside for the time being, and there was another channel for information besides its official source.

The place where the channel was located was undoubtedly the tavern.

Therefore, at the moment when it was 9 o’clock at night, Zero appeared in front of the only tavern in the Wild Reef City.
