"Wherever Peria's army marches, cities fall and kingdoms are destroyed. If you want to snatch chestnuts from the fire, you'd better think twice about your own strength!"

Jiang Heyi wasn't angry. Instead, he picked up a piece of hand-shredded chicken made with cuttlefish.

Sigh, even with such a shortage of seasonings, he still managed to make it taste so good.

It's time to interrogate that woman again.

"Since we can't understand it, let's just say we're bored and want to do some chivalrous things, to be the heroes who turn the tide."

"A hero? Ha." Another person stood up and sneered, "Who do you think you are, a god?"

"Whether the gods will save you is hard to say, but I'm determined to win no matter what," Jiang Heyi said.

"You think you can fight against the tide of national annihilation with just a few dozen people?"

As they spoke, the leaders of each faction burst into laughter.

"Alright, alright, everyone, I think I understand what you're thinking now."

"You want to use us to get in touch with Peria and exchange that for the riches and glory of switching sides, right? If that's the case, then show us some sincerity."

Jiang Heyi wiped his mouth.

“You’ve been talking too much. I invited you to dinner because we have a tradition in our country called the last meal before someone’s death.”

"If you're going to die, try to eat as much as you can and die a full-fed ghost. A cyber full-fed ghost isn't so bad."

"But there's nothing we can do for your family. Hopefully they've had dinner by now."

Upon hearing this, the 11 people were struck dumb.

The young man who spoke first stood up abruptly.

"What do you want to do?"

"What are you doing? I already said it." Jiang Heyi shrugged. "I'll kill your whole family, don't you understand?"

"Are you all insane, you wild mages?!"

"I'm not crazy. It's precisely because I'm perfectly lucid that I killed your whole family."

Before these people could even use their magic, seven burly men chosen by Khorne suddenly rushed out and killed the accompanying servants on the spot.

The magician who tried to resist had his head smashed by these burly men with necks as thick as heads before he could even finish chanting.

Seeing that things were not going well, the 11 people began to flee.

One of them cleverly used wind magic to break free, leaping high into the air in an attempt to escape danger.

"Hiss~~"

It was a comical tree, and my sword was not at a disadvantage in its strike.

He pierced the heart with his sword, then with a backhand stroke, beheaded the victim.

This move was perfectly coordinated with ID.

Another person who had successfully broken free from Khorne's entanglement had jumped onto a house, but a torrent of elemental energy pursued him from behind and instantly vaporized him.

The subdued men stared at Jiang Heyi, who was pacing towards them, with despair and ferocity.

"What exactly do you want? We can talk!"

“There’s nothing to talk about. You bunch of chameleons who can switch sides at any time, I’m afraid you’ll stab me in the back while I’m fighting Peria.”

"Goodbye so I can face the enemy with peace of mind."

As soon as the words were spoken, blood stained the square's paving stones.

Because they didn't have enough manpower to take care of all 11 families, they followed the centurion's instructions and prioritized eliminating the strongest families.

Here, they found the answer to their hunger problem—a mountain of food.

as well as……

"Potatoes are strong..."

"Call me that normally!"

The sashimi vendor who came to deliver the message pulled out a letter he had found in the study.

"The cavalry has suffered a setback. Find out the identities of the mages active near Green Embroidery City immediately."

A harsh, commanding tone.

It was unsigned, but anyone could understand that it came from the decision-making level of the Peria Legion.

This also directly corroborates Jiang Heyi's conjecture.

This legion commander was remarkably steady.

Even with the slightest setback, they immediately utilize information channels.

They show too much respect for their opponents.

"Thank goodness they were all killed. These people were definitely landmines."

Upon seeing the letter, everyone's bloodied hands burned even hotter.

You have to keep your word when you're in this business; if you say you'll kill the whole family, then you'll kill the whole family.

Almost simultaneously, bloodshed broke out throughout the city.

Chapter 448 The Change in the Dead of Night

News of the massacre in the square could not be kept secret for long.

Of the 11 families, many magicians escaped before the massacre.

The property they left behind naturally belonged to the players.

With the help of the music box, Jiang Heyi found the centurion, the most prestigious among the wounded soldiers.

The bloodstains on the square were still wet. The sight of the powerful magician, who died with his eyes wide open, did not frighten the centurions. Instead, they showed a morbid excitement.

He seemed to feel relieved.

"name?"

The middle-aged centurion at the head hesitated for a moment, then knelt down.

“Jonah…”

Jiang Heyi got straight to the point: "Alright, Jonah, from now on you are the commander-in-chief of all the soldiers in Green Embroidery City, a centurion."

“I know you have many questions in your mind, such as why we should help you.”

"For example, why would I be an enemy of Peria?"

“But that’s not important to you. If you want to defend your homeland, then obey my orders.”

“At least I can give you dignity, to die as warriors, instead of becoming prisoners of the Peria, to be their beasts of burden, and for generations to come only as inferiors.”

"Now, you have the right to refuse my orders. Give me your answer."

After a two-second silence, Jonah presented Jiang Heyi with both hands, holding up the sword at his waist, to show his determination to serve him.

Jiang Heyi glanced around at the other junior officers.

Do you agree?

The abandoned soldiers answered with the resounding clang of their knees hitting the floor tiles.

"Alright, now mobilize the soldiers who are mobile and divide them into two groups."

"Let's head to the mage's mansion we've cleared out and move all the corpses here."

"We proceeded to the outskirts of the city to clean up the battlefield, and all the corpses were moved behind the city walls."

Jonah should declare yes and begin to put his loyalty into practice with concrete actions.

Jiang Heyi breathed a sigh of relief. This feeling of being in a superior position and giving orders was completely different from the usual joking around in the guild. He was on high alert, afraid of not being authoritative enough.

It now seems that prestige is only secondary on this battlefield.

Everyone in the player team was busy with their own tasks, exchanging information intensively through the chat channel.

Jiangdong Iron Wall: "An underground library has been discovered, containing a rich collection of books and scrolls, which are currently being moved."

The thirty-year-old who became a Grand Mage said, "A warehouse has been cleared out next to the East City. Send everything there."

Captain Jegan: "Found two dolls with unfilled cores. Seeking advice online, is this helpful?"

Lafrecia: "Nonsense, send it to the North City and put it with the corpse."

Jailer: "Brother, if conditions permit, it's best to keep the body frozen, otherwise the smell might be too strong."

A moment of carelessness can ruin a lifetime: "Perceptual suppression shouldn't be a problem, right?"

The French fry user complained: "The Tarot Knight Devil's breath almost made my soul leave my body."

The Primal: "I need an elemental mage to help me out; I must freeze it immediately."

Players with a god-like perspective were already overwhelmed, their fingers constantly adjusting the projection.

It's impossible to have a complete overview now; players with assigned roles are scattered throughout the vast Green Embroidery City, performing different tasks.

They can only choose to follow the perspective of a few players or focus on the soldiers of Green Embroidery City.

Jiang Heyi held the secret letter he had obtained from the magic family, pacing back and forth in thought.

"Perhaps I should send a letter to the other side."

"Given his cautious style of military operations, he might have some doubts."

"In this way, it should be possible to repair the damaged city walls of Green Embroidery City."

As Jiang Heyi pondered the matter repeatedly, drowsiness began to creep over him.

"not good!"

He opened the chat group and discovered that other players had also realized the new problem.

On this level, they are no longer energetic monsters who need no rest and do not need to sleep.

As night fell, everyone felt tired and yawned frequently.

The fries were boiled with hot tea to wake the players up, but it was to no avail.

Forcing myself to stay awake would prevent me from dealing with any unexpected situations that might arise.

Jiang Heyi summoned Jonah and ordered him to arrange the night patrol.

When asked if it could cover the entire green embroidery, Jonah honestly shook his head.

"If the enemy is just a regular scout infiltrating, then it shouldn't be difficult for well-trained soldiers to spot them."

“But if the enemy is a master of stealth magic, our soldiers are blind.”

After much deliberation, unable to come up with a better solution for the time being, Jiang Heyi had no choice but to make the arrangements.

After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Are there any apothecaries in the city who are knowledgeable about potion making?"

Jonah shook his head again.

"The pharmacists who concoct ordinary medicines are probably not what adults are looking for. Those who have a future have all run away."

It really is full of difficulties.

Isn't there any good news?

The person in bed said, "Bro, bro, I've discovered something really interesting."

"I and another Dark Elf Shadowwalker are not sleepy at all; on the contrary, we are full of energy."

"?"

Seeing the two lively and energetic individuals, the players present exchanged bewildered glances.

"Not just energetic, look~~~"

As he spoke, he suddenly transformed into a cloud of black mist and appeared in the distance at an incredible speed, almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

This is even more efficient than the Shadow Stalker's innate abilities.

"I remember the Proof of the Stars doesn't mention racial talent," Huang Liang Yi Meng hesitated. "I'm a vampire, so why am I sleepy?"
