The Lord’s Empire

There was blood and countless broken corpses everywhere. There were many women who had been raped and violated, as well as many children lying in pools of blood. It was an incredibly cruel and horrific scene, looking like hell on earth.

Because the City Lord and most of the soldiers were not present, after the Fish Scale people attacked, the City Hall’s energy barrier automatically activated, protecting the City.

A system main city’s protective barrier could withstand the continuous attacks from ten or so City Lords and hundreds of thousands of soldiers. However, if there were dozens of City Lords or millions of soldiers, it would be broken quite easily. With the protective barrier broken, the City was conquered.

On the main battlefield, as the Cities were conquered by the Fish Scale people, the human City Lords’ City Lord Seals suddenly lost their power. Those who lost their City Lord Seals were instantly killed by the Fish Scale City Lords.

Once the City Lords died, their soldiers’ morale plummeted, and they did not have any heart for fighting anymore now that their City Lord, family, and friends had been slaughtered.

The human side was now doomed to lose, and as the City Lords died, the system soldiers also became greatly weakened. It was not just because they lost their City Lords but because they also lost the various stats from their Cities.

The Fish Scale people grasped this opportunity to attack with even more vigor, while the human side became weaker and weaker, almost collapsing.

Now, there were no more people giving commands, and some people started to run. Seeing this, others also stopped caring about anything and also just wanted to run. This caused the human army to completely collapse and run for their lives, while the Fish Scale people madly gave chase and attacked from behind.

On the other side, the four billion Fish Scale people were completely unstoppable as they swept through thousands of regions in the Southern Continent, leaving nothing behind. All living things were killed, and all items of value were pillaged.

The things that they could not take were either smashed or burned in order to not leave anything for the humans, causing countless people to feel furious.

The ones who suffered the most were the billions of ordinary residents who were slaughtered by the Fish Scale people. With so many people dying, it was as if the sky had been dyed blood-red, and a mournful aura spread out from the Southern Continent.

In the end, Akhenaten and the others were able to disengage, but they had suffered heavy losses. Only 1.2 billion people had survived; while retreating, they had lost 2.2 billion people.

Out of the five billion Fish Scale people, they had lost 300 million people, and they would not die true deaths anyways.

In actuality, if those 2.2 billion humans who had died had fought bravely against the Fish Scale people, they could have taken down at least one billion with them. It was a pity that after their Cities were broken through, their defeat had already been decided. There was nowhere to retreat to now, and if they stayed here, the entire Southern Continent would be massacred.

Even if they stayed here, there would be no point, because even if they stayed, they would be surrounded and killed sooner or later.

Moreover, because their Cities had been conquered, the human side’s morale had greatly plummeted, and the Fish Scale people also had a numerical advantage and did not fear death. As such, they had to retreat; anything was better than being completely wiped out.

As for the City Lords, they only lost 5,000 to 6,000, which was not as heavy of a loss.

The news of the human side losing and countless people being slaughtered instantly shook the entire human world. After hearing about this, all of the humans’ expressions fell, and they started to feel terrified.

By now, the Southern Continent had no strength to resist anymore, and it was only a matter of time until it completely fell. The entire human world was now in danger, because the Fish Scale world had already successfully invaded, and after completely taking over the Southern Continent, it would attack the other Continents.

“What do we do? What do we do?” Everyone started to feel quite terrified, and it was now too late to even head to the Southern Continent; even if people went, they would not be able to change anything. The Fish Scale people were already there, and because the humans had made no preparations, they would definitely lose.

The factions that had gone to the Southern Continent to defend all retreated to their own Continents. The ones who were the worst off were the people from the Southern Continent. Their foundation had been taken, and because they had nowhere else to run, they could only relocate to other Continents.

The two Fish Scale armies had already joined together, and they had around eight billion people. After hearing that they had conquered the Southern Continent, countless Fish Scale people rushed over, because it was time to split the spoils.

Seeing the immense potential for benefits, many Fish Scale people who had not wanted to come did not hesitate to come.

Even the system factions that did not want to participate had never thought it would be so easy to enter the human world. They were all too happy to come over and pick up the leftovers.

An even larger force of Fish Scale people started to invade into the human world. Yu Xuan did not turn away these latecomers, because with only eight billion people, it would be quite difficult to take down the rest of the human world.

If they were able to gather the entire Fish Scale world, it would be much easier.

In just a week, almost all of the Southern Continent had been swept across without any resistance, and 90% of the regions had been taken over.

The Southern Continent’s countless factions had already relocated to the other Continents, and even the strongest King, Akhenaten, was no exception. Staying behind would spell certain death, as there were simply innumerable Fish Scale people gathered in the Southern Continent now.

The other Continents were all quite welcoming of these factions relocating over. This was because under the threat of the Fish Scale world’s invasion, having more strength meant more safety. If it was under normal circumstances, they definitely would not welcome these factions.

Most factions chose to go to the Eastern, Western, and Northern Continents; the situation in the Midland Continent was quite tense, so many people were not willing to go there.

Most factions chose to go to the Western Continent, because it was relatively safer than all other places. The Northern Continent faced the Dark Demon world while the Southern Continent faced the Fish Scale world. The Eastern Continent faced the previous world, while there was not much threat at the Western Continent.

This was undoubtedly the safest places for humanity, so most people chose to go there.

Akhenaten also chose to relocate to the Western Continent to be the second foundation of Egypt. They had suffered heavy losses this time, and his plan to establish a Kingdom had been set back ten or so steps. His only consolation was that they had not all been destroyed.
