Chapter 380: Chapter 380

Human thinking is often so special that when one has a strong will, they often erupt with several times their fighting power. However, once their will is disheartened, then even those with strength cannot exert a bit of it.

Right now, the situation on the city wall was continually expanding its impact. More and more soldiers, in a daze, began to let go of the weapons in their hands, ultimately becoming prisoners of Border City.

The reason was that they discovered they were in the wrong, and then the idea of resistance disappeared.

Of course, some soldiers in the back did not know what was happening here, but faced with the Border City soldiers who kept rushing in like hungry wolves, they were not opponents at all.

Du You glanced at his magic power. Although the previous battle was intense, it didn’t last very long. His magic power only consumed 30% after the outburst, still leaving more than half.

Conversely, Xi Qianxue, without as strong an explosive power as his, had consumed most of her magic power and was now restoring it through medicinal means.

There was no need for them to put out fires everywhere next. They just needed to find some places where the enemy’s resistance was strong and suppress them, not too troublesome. The battle lasted until dusk, and the control over Wood Shield City was finally established.

Next, there were many troublesome things. Like completely taking control of the city, restoration of the city, arrangements of the people and soldier captives inside, and the nobles were the most troublesome. The nobles were privileged. Even if Border City captured these nobles, they couldn’t be treated like ordinary prisoners.

"Finally, our mission is complete. It was pleasant working together, hope to collaborate again if there’s a chance next time."

Xi Qianxue reached out her hand, shook Du You’s hand, and then disappeared into rays of light. Lan Xiaodie and Daniu did the same, instantly leaving this world.

"So this is a promotion quest, it doesn’t seem too troublesome." Du You shook his head. However, after opening the panel, Du You, looking at the reminder on the panel, his face showed hints of uneasiness.

"It seems I indeed am different from other people."

Promotion quest: Change the situation in the northern region. Completed. Submitting the quest will decrease two star levels.

Du You didn’t expect that his star ranking was too high, and therefore, for him, the mission hadn’t been accomplished at all. Even if he broke through Wood Shield City, if he submitted the mission, his star level would still drop by two.

stars were very high. Traditionally, 8 stars were the highest rank. But Du You was still reluctant to do this. If there were only two cities here, he might have given up.

But now it’s different, there were three cities here. Du You set his sights on the Beastman city.

"I’ve wasted so much time and energy, and gotten no benefit. Whatever happens, I have to succeed this time. I missed an opportunity last time, I can’t miss it again."

Du You had already decided, he would temporarily not leave this place. He wanted to conquer the Beastman city.

The next day, Du You returned to Border City. The city lord personally welcomed him. As for Xi Qianxue’s whereabouts, Du You found that the city lord casually mentioned that Xi Qianxue was busy, as if he knew where she had gone.

But clearly, that was not the case. It seemed there was indeed some strange influence between this world and others.

But this was of no use to Du You. Du You directly asked, "What should we do next? We’ve taken Wood Shield City, the Beastman situation might be a bit troublesome."

The city lord waved his hand, "Don’t worry, we’re keeping an eye on the Beastman side. Once there are abnormalities, we will know immediately. The Xina Empire royal family has also decided, wait one month, they will send someone to take over Wood Shield City, and then we withdraw. They will compensate us a large sum."

In that case, wouldn’t the border return to its original state? His mission progress wouldn’t increase, and will likely decrease. Du You didn’t know whether it would really decrease, but he didn’t dare gamble.

"Also, you made great contributions this time, I have reported to the empire. The empire plans to enfeoff you as a viscount, from now on, you are also a noble. Do you want to return to the country to develop, or would you want to stay here? I hope you can stay."

Du You narrowed his eyes slightly, looks like he needs to fight for it himself. If things don’t work out, then he might as well not listen to them.

"Let’s talk about other things later, the most important thing right now is the Beastman situation. Our human side has taken a large hit, the Beastmen could attack us at any time, we have to be cautious. I apply, to go to the north to monitor the Beastmen."

After a silent moment, the city lord seemed to not be relieved about the Beastmen, then nodded and said, "Fine, I agree to you going to the north to monitor. If there are special circumstances, you can handle the situation as you see fit. But remember, do not rashly provoke the Beastmen. After this mission, I recommend you to be Border City’s fifth official general."

Du You was not interested in these promises, as he might never return to this world in the future.

However, having received approval was also good. Although Du You wanted to attack the Beastman city, it was absolutely not a blind attack. Certain intelligence had to be obtained through Border City. The source of thɪs content is 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥

For instance, after taking down Wood Shield City, the Beastman city had deployed a flying team.

Although Du You knew this, he must first understand what this flying team was about. If he encountered this flying team, he could capsize in the ditch, this was the key point.

Du You left Border City and flew towards the northern base all the way. Near the Northern Base, the intelligence here was the most accurate.

As soon as Du You arrived, he immediately received the most grand welcome, no choice, for now, Du You and Xi Qianxue had a big reputation.

"Give me the information on the Beastman city, especially their flying team." A flying team was not just an ordinary team, to Border City, it would be a huge threat.

Therefore, this flying team had always been under strict surveillance. The intelligence was quickly delivered to Du You.

"Hawk body’s man, huh? Their speed is not too fast but they’re very agile. As expected, there aren’t a lot of them, otherwise, the impact would be huge. Less than 200 Hawk body’s men, using spears and bows and arrows, I see."

Because of using their own power to fly, Hawk body’s man could not possibly carry too many weapons into the sky, nor could they wear heavy armor. If he planned well, he could eliminate the only team that could threaten him in one fell swoop.

Without aerial power, it would be very easy for him to deal with the Beastman city. As long as he irregularly flies up to hit them a few times, the Beastman city would quickly be finished. As for Border City’s orders, what does it have to do with him?
