Chapter 141 The Lord's Counterattack
The barbarian tribe built a wooden wall at the entrance to the valley.
Logs were inserted into the ground and tied together with hemp rope.
It was the simplest kind of city wall.
A moat, five meters deep and ten meters wide, was dug around the perimeter, and a suspension bridge was laid on top of it.
They set up watchtowers at the rear, and the barbarians sent out skilled archers to patrol the area.
It can monitor the entire valley entrance.
The lord of the far north ice plains once led his troops to attack, launching a fierce assault for more than ten days, suffering over a thousand casualties but unable to advance an inch.
This level of defense is virtually unstoppable in the far north ice fields.
The barbarian archers atop the watchtower can easily snipe targets a kilometer away.
The attacking side, attacking from below, could only withstand a hail of arrows and ultimately had no choice but to retreat in defeat.
After the appearance of the golden species, the lord of the far north ice plains completely lost the possibility of taking over the valley.
They were trapped and died in the frigid winds of the far north.
Many lords ultimately had no choice but to surrender and enter the valley as slaves.
They endured the cruel exploitation of barbarians.
"Mineral production has declined. Da Man, you're in charge, what did you do?"
"The ancestral temple of the barbarians," the leader of the golden race asked with dissatisfaction.
"It's all because of these damned alien lords; they'd rather die than continue mining."
"Go catch some more later."
The one called Da Man is the leader of this barbarian tribe, but among the barbarians, the ancestral priests have a higher status.
The priests were the rulers of the tribe.
"According to intelligence, there aren't many alien lords left in this area."
"Daman, send a portion of the barbarians to the mines."
"The war of the gods is drawing ever closer."
"The deity has issued a decree that we should increase our strength as soon as possible."
"This war of the gods is different from the past; the battle will be much more intense."
"Even in our far northern ice plains, there will not be a new god vying for power as before."
"Yes, messenger of God."
After a pause, Da Man asked.
"What about the remaining alien lords?"
"Kill those who disobey, and spare those who are obedient and willing to submit to us."
"With the war of the gods imminent, we have no time for assimilation."
"Yes, I'll take care of it right away."
Da Man stood up, his iron armor clanging loudly.
A glint of light flashed in the priest's eyes.
"The divine beings have prophesied that the power of the Dragon's Nest is about to descend."
"During the last war of the gods, a god fell here."
"This time, Dragon's Nest will definitely not let this go."
"The Ice Empire must complete its integration as soon as possible."
"Only then will there be a possibility of fighting against the Dragon God."
"It's a pity that these alien lords refuse to submit; otherwise, the difficulty of unifying the ice plains would be greatly reduced."
"Fine, then we'll just have to let them die."
"Before the war of the gods arrives, a clean ice field must be left behind."
The Blue Star lords were grouped together with the barbarians.
They lived among the cattle and horses raised by barbarians.
They engaged in heavy physical labor.
All the soldiers and heroes of the territory were killed.
They have almost no chance of survival here.
Slightly better are the functional heroes who, having mastered skills such as forging, live in better locations.
"Boss Zhou."
"Something's probably not right."
The lord of the forging area rushed to the pasture.
"What is it?"
Zhou Laoda was a short, stocky young man, surrounded by lords who had entered the barbarian tribe.
Under oppression, they rallied together and huddled together for warmth.
"The barbarian chieftain took many weapons."
"And they gathered more than five hundred people."
"Old Sun suspects that someone might be about to be killed."
Boss Zhou's eyes darkened.
"This day was bound to come eventually."
The barbarians' oppression of the lords made everyone wary.
They believed that the barbarians here did not treat them as human beings, and that they would inevitably kill them in the end.
Therefore, these lords had been secretly plotting an uprising.
Break free from the barbarians and return to the ice plains.
They have already made contact with the lords outside, but the help they can provide is limited.
If they want to leave, they have to do it themselves.
"Now that we're here, we can't just sit here and wait to die."
"Tell the brothers, even in death, to die standing."
"Bring out your weapons. If the barbarians are really killing people, then fight back."
"yes!"
A sense of tragic grandeur welled up in the lord's heart.
No one wants to be a hero, but no one is willing to be slaughtered like cattle.
"Da da da~"
The barbarian chieftain appeared outside the lord's residential area with his men.
Behind him were elite troops clad in heavy armor.
"What a pity, if only they were willing to believe in my God."
"There's no need to do that."
Da Man grinned and said.
"These foreign lords are inherently rebellious."
"Even if they believe, they are just a bunch of casual believers."
"They don't offer much in terms of faith and often have thoughts of betrayal."
"Killing him is the best option."
These past few days of contact have made the barbarian chieftain look down on the Blue Star lord.
A group of people without even a faith is nothing more than a herd of cattle and horses.
"Erman".
"Get ready."
"Kill them cleanly."
"We'll throw it into the ice beast's lair as food later."
"Yes, Chief."
Led by the two barbarian warriors, the elite barbarians pushed open the wooden door.
They were preparing to venture deeper into the area.
With a loud "boom".
The ground exploded, triggering a magical trap.
The Blue Star Lord is not dead, so the space in his personal inventory is still usable.
They all hid something, more or less.
This magical trap is a counterattack tool hidden by the Blue Star Lord.
Flames erupted, engulfing the leading barbarian.
"Tsk tsk tsk, these alien rats actually know how to resist."
The burning flames did not deter the barbarians; instead, they excited them even more.
"Only prey that dares to resist is worth hunting."
"Warriors."
"kill!"
The two barbarians raised their warhammers and pointed them forward.
The barbarians behind him let out excited howls.
Inside the makeshift defensive line set up by the Blue Star Lord.
The lord, armed only with short swords and longswords, looked at the heavily armed barbarians with a look of terror on his face.
Even Zhou Laoda's palms were sweaty.
Everyone knows that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they would surely die today.
"Brothers."
"We made the wrong choice in surrendering."
"We've come here to be treated like cattle and horses."
"We only have one last chance now."
"Is it a choice to be slaughtered like an animal, or to fight to the death like a human being?"
"Don't let us Earthlings lose our courage."
"Men who can take up arms, rise up!"
"Even before you die, you should act like a human being!"
Zhou Laoda leaped out.
He charged out of the defensive line, sword in hand.
Seeing this, the Blue Star Lord behind him emboldened.
"The boss has started a group buy."
"Those who aren't afraid to die, go for it."
The second lord, wearing only cloth armor and carrying a pitchfork, followed.
"Damn, I should have known better than to surrender."
The third lord, who only had a short sword, lowered his head and chased after them.
Then the fourth, the fifth...
In this region inhabited only by cattle and horses, hundreds and thousands of lords gathered together like a tide.
They charged headlong into the barbarian elite.
Embracing the tragic heroism of even if it's like an egg hitting a rock, they'll still leave the other side covered in blood.
It exploded with a "boom".
