Chapter 241

This shout had made the already low morale drop further. At once, the city governor shouted in response:

"Don't listen to these traitors. Skeletons are the enemy to humans. He is a traitor to humanity, don't be like this traitor."

Gorsag knew that Ibro's words were right. He couldn't affect the morale of these in the city and push them to surrender without getting rid of this governor. 

So, he moved with his small group to attack the governor. He was stronger than what Gorsag thought. Gorsag believed all the NPCs here were like that magician they would be dead in just a few seconds. 

After nearly 10 minutes of fighting with this governor, Gorsag knew how strong these NPCs in this world were. 

It took him another 15 minutes to be able to kill the governor. After he stored the dropped items he shouted again:

"I have slain your great magician I have slain your city governor surrender now or we will kill you all."

This time, his shout had a big effect on the people in the city. Many players started to mass retreat towards the teleportation gate in this city. they began to evacuate the city in big numbers. 

At the same time, many NPCs had thrown down their weapons and sat on the ground motionless. The skeletons weren't animals, they were intelligent beings. 

They evaded those surrendered NPCs and focused their efforts over the few remnant resistance pockets in this city. The main resistance came from the main body of the defensive army of this city. 

This army was under the leadership of the two remaining high commanders of the city. At once, Gorsag joined Erond with all the cultivators to attack these two and their army. 

In a few minutes, they managed to slay these two. part of their army surrendered while the other part attacked the skeletons madly. In just one hour, the bustling noisy city had regained its calm again. 

Ibro entered the city through the side opened city gates like a real king. He felt proud of this victory, but he wasn't that happy about this. He knew he would have a hard time in the coming days. 

If he wanted to root himself here, he must withstand these days and survive them with this city. Or else, all his efforts would be lost. 

Ibro moved in the familiar streets which had many dead bodies and few surrendered survivors. The more he got near the city governor palace, the more survivors he met. 

This city was huge with so many advanced buildings that he recognized. There was the merchant guild, the adventurer guild and other buildings that were especially targeted to lifestyle players. 

He also found a couple of unknown buildings that he didn't know. It took him nearly half an hour to reach the central palace in this city. He knew if he walked in this city's streets on normal days, it would take longer than that. 

Beside the palace, Ibro noticed the main square of the city. It had the resurrection temple and the teleportation gate. Before Ibro, his three leaders stood there waiting for him at the palace gates. 

This palace was simple, huge and elegant. Ibro liked it. When he entered the main doorway, he found a huge waiting hall with many decorations. 

He went to a round table with some chairs and sat there. There were many things he needed to discuss now.

"Congratulations my king for this big victory."

"We need to celebrate with the boys, my king."

Ibro listened to the voices of Gorsag and Erond expressing their thoughts while the alpha death knight remained silent as usual. Ibro sighed as he hated to put water onto their happiness, as he said:

"Actually we are so far from a celebration. We still have many things to do and a lot of challenges to overcome."

Erond and Gorsag exchanged silent glances before Erond asked:

"What do you mean, my king?"

"I mean as your boys had previously reported, this isn't the only system city here. We have more cities that surround us. These cities won't sit by and wait for us to go and conquer them. 

They will gather up and march to destroy our current city. Although we gained great easy victory, in my opinion, we had also damaged the city walls. 

There is no builder in our army, and we don't have enough time to go and bring some from our village. we need to search this city up and down to find people who can fix these walls as soon as possible."

Ibro took a moment of silence to let these two to understand his words completely before adding:

"Now, let's set some roles. Gorsag will take over the control of this city. I want you to search this palace treasury and all the buildings treasuries and collect them in a few rings. 

Also, don't forget to check the arsenal and warehouse. If there are any useful things for your boys to play then use them at once. 

All the siege weapons move them towards the area around the walls. Prepare yourself for any imminent battle in the following days."

Gorsag felt strange so he expressed his doubts:

"I will, my king. But why do I feel like you won't be here in the upcoming days?"

Ibro smiled while replying to him:

"That's because we don't have the luxury to sit here and defend only. Our enemies are many and their ways are unexpected. To win this war we need to stick to our first basic strategy Attack is the best way for defense."

Ibro then began to explain the plan he had in his mind. At the same time, his men were gathering the whole city population to gather in the main square. 

He wanted to address them to settle these people's hearts; after all, they had become his followers now. After a few hours of meeting, he moved towards the huge plaza that was full of NPCs.
