The Lord's Empire (Part 2)

Chapter 517-521

Chapter 517: Demon Tree

Now, the Forest of Horrors still had two million players, and with the system main cities' population and soldiers, they had roughly three million people. If everyone went to attack, Great Qin would not be able to defend very easily.

This operation had been a failure, and the three system main cities went from an offensive position to a defensive position.

With this experience, they no longer dared to casually attack Great Qin, as they understood that they were not powerful enough to destroy Great Qin. As such, they could only go on the defensive.

News that the player army had been defeated quickly spread into the real world, causing many people to feel disappointed.

However, most factions had expected this - with Great Qin's monstrous power, they had never hoped to destroy it. They had only wanted to heavily wound it.

However, even though they had failed, they had still successfully made Great Qin seem less scary. Now, they knew that as long as enough people banded together, Great Qin would not dare to attack.

Since Great Qin would not dare to attack them and they had the power to resist, why did they still need to fear Great Qin?

As such, even though the player army had failed, they still made everyone less fearful of Great Qin and motivated people to resist Great Qin's tyranny.

The Forest of Horrors' three system main cities went into full defense mode, and Great Qin did not dare to casually attack, resulting in a period of peace within the Forest of Horrors.

There were much fewer people on the streets now within Holy Light City. Looking at the destroyed Westfall Restaurant, Jiang Rou looked quite worried. What had happened to Zhao Xin?

In order to destroy all of Great Qin's factions, the three system main cities naturally shut down any shops that they thought were associated with Great Qin. However, Great Qin had many shops, and because some of them were run by others, it was difficult to tell just which shops belonged to Great Qin.

However, the three system main cities would rather shut down the wrong shops than let Great Qin off, so even some innocent shops were dragged in as well.

Jiang Rou heard about Great Qin being in the Forest of Horrors due to such a big thing happening. Even if she didn't care about the matter, she would still hear about it from other people.

However, Jiang Rou still hadn't realized that there was a connection between Zhao Fu and Great Qin. She thought that Zhao Fu's restaurant had been wrongly shut down, so she was quite worried about him.

As Great Qin continuously developed in other regions, Zhao Fu's fake name, Zhao Xin, was gradually forgotten by everyone.

Barely anyone would be able to guess that Zhao Xin, who was Zhao Fu, was Great Qin's Legatee. It was impossible for Jiang Rou to guess such a thing, that Zhao Xin, who treated her so kindly, was Great Qin's bloodthirsty Legatee.

"What should I do?" Jiang Rou felt incredibly worried, but there was nothing she could do. This was because she normally went to the Westfall restaurant to find Zhao Fu, but now that there was no one there, she could not find any information about Zhao Fu.

After looking around the Westfall Restaurant, Jiang Rou could only dispiritedly return to her own tailor shop and pray that Zhao Xin was fine.

Jiang Rou truly thought of Zhao Fu as a friend and felt incredibly grateful to him. After all, it was only because of his help that she was able to live her own life.

Back at Great Qin, they had successfully defended against this attack. This was the first time that Great Qin had been on the defensive, and it had suffered some losses. For example, all of the Clown Bone Fish that they had been raising for so long had been killed.
