His eyes sparkled with excitement as he suddenly raised the War Axe in his hand,

"Vanguard Corps! Charge with me!"

Gang Le roared, his enormous body leading the charge towards a massive breach in the city wall!

"Kill!"

Hundreds of warriors from the Vanguard Corps behind Gang Le shouted in unison, following closely like a tide surging towards the wall breach!

Their eyes held no fear, only the thirst for battle honors and blood!

After all, not every war has a Giant Dragon paving the way!

Gang Le led the Vanguard Corps over the ruins and into Moon Wolf City, encountering Soldiers without any need for words—directly slaughtering!

The sharp War Axe, like the scythe of death, swiftly harvested the lives of the defending Soldiers!

"Block them! Hold them off!"

An officer wielded a Longsword, shouting commands to the Soldiers, attempting to organize a defense.

However, the defenders within the city had long collapsed in morale under the Dragon’s breath, unable even to hold their Shields steady!

When Gang Le led the Vanguard Corps charging forward, the fragile defensive line was instantly shattered!

Seeing they couldn’t hold the resistance, most people’s first reaction was to turn and flee!

The warriors of the Vanguard Corps, like fierce tigers pouncing on a flock of sheep, madly slaughtered the enemies in front of them.

Meanwhile, figures like Lai Te appeared like phantoms at the city gates.

The guards hadn’t had time to react before blades pierced through the gaps beneath their helmets into their necks, killing them instantly.

Several other guards were completely terrified, throwing down their weapons and kneeling in surrender.

"Get up, open the city gates!"

Although Lai Te’s Common Tongue was awkward, it was clear enough.

The guards didn’t dare delay, quickly getting up and rushing to the gate, removing the columns that held it, drawing out the bolts.

As the gates slowly opened, Sao led the Knights galloping into Moon Wolf City like a sharp sword, beginning the slaughter!

...

...

The war ended soon after.

The Soldiers had no intentions of resisting, only a few loyal Knights persisted in holding out.

They ultimately retreated into Moon Wolf Castle, making a last stand.

Luo De admired their courage and commanded Lai Te to lead the Lynx-men, giving them respect with sharp blades.

Death and blood awakened people’s rationality, and eventually, the gates of Moon Wolf Castle were opened by the Earl’s illegitimate child.

"Honorable Northern Duke."

The Earl’s illegitimate child’s voice trembled, kneeling by the gate, "This final act of surrender, I hope can earn your mercy."

Luo De merely glanced at the Earl’s illegitimate child, without paying much attention, leading the army into the castle.

The direct line of the Moon Wolf Earl Clan had been completely wiped out, and this illegitimate child, who didn’t even know the location of the Treasure Vault, was just a scapegoat pushed to the front.

Seeing through this immediately, Luo De ordered Chris to bring people and arrest all the nobles in Moon Wolf Castle for detailed interrogation.

Unfortunately, no one knew the vault’s location.

Since no one knew, Luo De could only do it himself.

After Prophet Bai Shuang’s divination, Luo De held the Magic Wand, and his spiritual tendrils scoured the Moon Wolf Castle’s underground.

Luo De’s Spiritual Power exceeded twenty-four points, making the operation of spiritual tendrils exceptionally easy.

The search process did not pause at all, smoothly finding the underground Treasure Vault hidden in the back garden.

It’s noteworthy that Treasure Vaults and relics from Ancient Times almost all have Rune Arrays to deceive spiritual probing.

However, Moon Wolf Clan’s Treasure Vault was just an ordinary underground chamber, unable to block spiritual probing, nor could it withstand forced entry.

Lusen led the Frost Iron Guard to haul out all the chests one by one and thoroughly search every corner of the Treasure Vault.

After the search, Lusen reported to Luo De,

"They are just ordinary Gold Coins and silver ornaments. You surely won’t fancy those exquisite Armor and Longsword."

Saying so, Lusen presented two purple gemstones to Luo De,

"Only these two Spirit Gems are what you need."

"Hmm."

Luo De accepted the Spirit Gems, without any disappointment.

It was good to have them.

For these ordinary nobles, having an Extraordinary item in their vaults was considered a pleasant surprise.

Moreover, Luo De urgently needed to enhance his spiritual power to create a Magic Energy network, meditating daily.

Spirit Gems, which directly elevate mental power, are essentially a necessity.

"Lord."

Chris quickly stepped forward, respectfully reporting, "All members of Moon Wolf Clan have been captured, you may summon them anytime."

"Bring them over." Luo De said casually.

"Yes, my lord."

He stood up, turned, and walked towards the group of people being escorted not far away.

A moment later, more than a dozen young men and women were brought to Luo De.

Their clothes were somewhat decent, attire neat, indicating they hadn’t resisted much.

Facing Luo De, a powerful figure capable of commanding four Giant Dragons, they all bowed their heads in unison, terror etched on their faces.

After all, the Moon Wolf Clan is an Earl Clan, ruling this land for hundreds of years, and the number of collateral descendants remains considerable.

These individuals received noble education to varying degrees and have some understanding of the territory’s situation.

"My subordinates will soon manage this land,"

Luo De spoke without any preamble, directly stating: "They need some people familiar with the local conditions to assist in the work."

Luo De paused, his gaze sweeping over the dozen or so individuals in front of him, asking flatly:

"Who among you is willing to serve me."

As his voice fell, not one of the dozen people dared to lift their heads.

They only secretly exchanged glances, seemingly waiting for someone else to speak first.

Silence spread among the crowd, the atmosphere growing increasingly oppressive.
