Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 539: Chapter 437, Collective Consciousness (Seeking Recommendations, Subscriptions…)._1

Aubrey spoke, his face growing more and more gloomy.

As soon as Rebecca died, according to the proposal of the Human Hundred Cities Federation, he could formally assume the authority of Lyss City.

At that time, he would be the true lord.

And those who had made fun of him as a sponger in the past would face his revenge.

Adeline’s beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, reminding him, “According to the previous plan, this operation only involves Rebecca and those who support her. It doesn’t include that lad Fang Hao.”

Aubrey nodded and said, “I know, he wasn’t part of the original plan, but since the kid is in the city and will attend this banquet, it would be convenient to take care of him now to prevent any chaos.”

Adeline’s brow was still furrowed, fearing that dealing with Fang Hao, despite being a transmigrator, might be difficult due to his demonstrated strength.

This could pose an unpredictable threat during this operation.

However, Aubrey’s point of view did make sense.

If Rebecca died, Fang Hao would also cause trouble in the city. If he was removed at the same time, it would prevent a lot of subsequent problems.

They could capture him alive and extract information about transmigrators from him.

As the number one in the region, he should have lots of valuable information to share.

“Fair enough, but when he entered the city this time, he brought quite a few people, including the beast-eared hero and possibly a Lizardman who may be a hero too. We need to be prepared. If anything unexpected happens, the situation could escalate quickly,” Adeline warned him seriously.

This operation is a crucial step in their bid for the control of Lyss City.

They cannot afford any errors.

“Alright, I will prepare for it. Once the boy enters the banquet hall, he won’t be able to fly out even if he sprouts wings,” Aubrey confidently responded.

“Ha! Good then, you are the best,” said Adeline, breaking into a smile. Her delicate fingers gently brushed Aubrey’s cheek.

Aubrey, who was becoming dispirited, felt a spark of wickedness ignite in his heart.

He fetched a medicine bottle from the drawer, poured out a pill and swallowed it.

His eyes began to turn red, and he said to Adeline, “I’m ready again, my lady.”

Adeline flashed a seductive smile, crawled back onto the bed and said, “Go on, show me if you still have it in you.”

With this encouragement, Aubrey threw himself on her.

…

The next day at noon.

Fang Hao, accompanied by Demitrija and 50 Lionheart Knights, went to the temple to deal with the rat problem.

Of course, since they were venturing into an unknown area,

Even though the drainage channels under Lyss City were likely to be safe,

Fang Hao was still apprehensive.

It was not him personally who went to the temple, but his Deomn Doll.

The Deomn Doll, naturally, did not appear in skeleton form but used the demon mask and took the shape of Fang Hao.

Even those who were familiar with Fang Hao couldn’t tell the difference at a glance.

Not only did the exterior appearance match, the actions and behaviour were controlled by Fang Hao himself too.

So, one could say that the two individuals were both Fang Hao.

A total of 52 people arrived with tools at the back door of the temple. After briefly advising the assistant priest on guard,

They went straight in through the back door.

The entry of the Deomn Doll into the temple did not draw any attention.

But when Fang Hao used God’s Presence, he felt a hot burning sensation from his consciousness.

Luckily, this burning sensation was still within Fang Hao’s tolerance.

They passed through the back door and directly arrived at the entrance to the underground passage.

They then opened their bags,

took out the Nightstone lanterns and distributed them among a few people.

Once all their preparations were done, they directly made their way downwards.

The stairs to the sewer were narrow and gradually widened to accommodate five people walking side by side with plenty of space.

Upon reaching the bottom, they found the space to be considerably wider than anticipated.

This sewer was much larger than Fang Hao had imagined.

The arched corridor was over three metres high, and the width on both sides was more than five metres.

This canal was bigger than the hallways in the City Lord’s mansion.

It seemed that Miriam was right; the underground world here was older than Lyss City above.

“My lord, we need to be careful if the area is as broad as this,” Demitrija cautioned.

If it were just a small subterranean culvert, the enemy might indeed be rats.

But this place was so vast and spread beneath the entire Lyss City.

Thus, it had enough room to accommodate large creatures.

“Hmm, we should be careful. Our main goal this time is to gather useful information. We should try to avoid any conflict, and if there’s a risk, we should retreat along the same route we came in,” Fang Hao nodded and said.

With the 50 Lionheart Knights and Demitrija, the orange hero,

As long as they did not encounter a quasi-god, he had a chance to teleport them out to safety.

“Yes, my lord!” the group answered in unison.

They formed a three-person abreast formation, keeping Fang Hao in the center and cautiously advancing forwards.

The two sides were lined with smooth stones, and only the middle area was recessed, for sewage to flow.

Thus, the road was not difficult to navigate.

Going forward through the corridor, various green fungi and moss had grown in the damp, dark corners, startling a variety of reptiles that scattered in all directions.

The gentle light of the Nightstone was enough to illuminate a large area ahead.

The group kept the formation and continued to move forward.

Everyone was holding their weapons, their minds highly concentrated, ready to deal with danger at any moment.
