Starting from Uchiha Obito

Chapter 144: Encirclement and Killing of the Lord

After throwing Erican out, Wang Jie jumped onto the stands and left with his teammates. No one stopped them. The battle under the stands had entered a slaughter mode. The lord in the territory was indeed invincible, at least facing these people. It was just that the lord seemed to have no skills and had been fighting with fists and feet, so the slaughter efficiency was not high.

After leaving the auction house, Wang Jie could see that the whole city was in chaos. Only a small number of troops entered the auction house, and a large number of troops were outside. Fighting broke out inside the auction house, and the troops outside were not idle either. Each team fought with the lord's team. This might be one of the reasons why the lord's strength was not as strong as Wang Jie expected. If too many attributes were drawn, the troops outside might be wiped out.

Compared to the powerful lords in the auction house, the situation outside seemed evenly matched. Erican was a new lord, and he did not have many troops under his command, only about 3000 people. There were more than 20 teams participating in the auction, and each team had dozens to two or three hundred people. He had the advantage in numbers, but because there was no coordination between them, he did not gain any advantage for the time being.

Wang Jie and his companions did not get involved in the chaotic fighting in the city. After a few fights, others saw that this group of people were powerful and wanted to leave, so no one attacked them again.

"I have a feeling that there is someone behind this. Shisui, go and have a look around to see if there is a large army lurking." The group retreated outside the city and looked in the direction of Erican from afar. The more Wang Jie thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. The things stored in the lord's warehouse could be stolen, which led to a big fight. The losses of the individual fighters who fought on their own were certainly heavy, but the losses of Erican's territory were not small either.

The most crucial thing is that the intelligence that someone from the Holy Empire wanted to kill him, but after he entered the city, no one from the Holy Empire found him. The appearance characteristics of that group of bloodline theorists were still very prominent, which made him doubt the cause of the whole incident. His hatred with the Holy Empire was not so great that the other party had to cross a world and gather forces thousands of miles away to hunt him down. Killing him should be just a matter of course, and even the certificate of heroism is not the other party's ultimate goal. Maybe what the other party really wants is the fragment of Lord's Heart of Lord Erican.

If this is the case, then everything that is happening now is just a prelude. The real battle will not break out until the big fight in the city is over. And he will definitely not just face people who came in at the same batch as him. Given the strict hierarchy of that country, he is likely to run into people from the previous batch, and there will definitely be heroes among them.

If there are too many people, I cannot force my way through them. After all, they are the best of the previous generation, and they have the support of an entire country behind them. It is hard to say what kind of power they can have.

Thinking of this, Wang Jie decided not to act rashly. He used the earth escape technique to dig a hidden underground space in the wilderness, and waited quietly with his teammates for the information that Shisui would reveal.

It took most of the day to wait. The battle in Erican's territory had already ended. Wang Jie knew the final result through the Sage Mode. Almost all the people who participated in the auction were killed. Erican's troops lost a small part. The lord was not seriously injured, but many things in the territory were destroyed. However, it was definitely a profit for the lord in the short term, because the materials brought by the people who came to the auction would definitely belong to him. But in the long run, he would be in a lot of trouble, because there were many representatives of big forces among the people who came, and his future development might not be smooth.

Overall, the cost outweighs the gain, not to mention that he might be facing the next attack soon.

"Found it. There is a team hiding 100 kilometers to the west of us. The total number of people is estimated to be around. I used my shadow clone to test the periphery. The strength of the team varies greatly. The weakest is probably only level 1, and the strongest is level . I saw a leader who meets the requirements of the upper nobility of the Holy Empire. They should be the people of the Holy Empire organization. They should be on their way to Erican now. I left a shadow clone to follow them. If they are about to launch an attack, I will know." Shisui is an excellent ninja. Although Wang Jie's order was only to find people, as a ninja, he attached great importance to intelligence and found out everything he needed to.

"You've worked hard. Take a rest first. I think they will wait until Lord Erican is at his most relaxed to launch the attack. Normal creatures will probably be a little slack at night after a big battle. Even if the Holy Empire's army is not of high quality, they may have a chance with their overwhelming numbers and sneak attacks. It's taboo to attack and kill the lord, but there's no scruple about avenging the lord who was killed. We'll attack after they're done."

Everyone returned to their own houses to prepare for tonight's battle.

At 2 a.m., the battle broke out in the direction of Erican's territory. The first person to get the news was Shisui. His shadow clone automatically released the information. After being awakened by Shisui, Wang Jie watched the battle in Sage Mode. Not all of the 1000 troops participated in the attack. A large number of people surrounded the periphery of the territory. Five teams of 3 people launched an attack on the city wall. The city wall, which was more than meters high, had basically no effect. It was broken in one attack due to insufficient defense. Then Erican woke up and began to organize defense, but his disadvantage was too obvious. The originally small number of troops was consumed during the day and the number of the enemy was not on the same level. Even if he, the lord, personally went into battle, he could not hide the decline.

But as a lord he also had a trump card. After more than half of his troops were lost, Erican showed a fierce look in his eyes and took out a ring, which was the one Wang Jie gave him. Wang Jie had never known what was inside, but now he saw that it was not some supplies but a cup of red liquid.

The cup itself is golden red in color, with four huge black and white gems inlaid symmetrically. There are also various gems densely packed around it inlaid in a regular pattern. The blood-red liquid inside is constantly bubbling, which looks sacred and weird.

After taking out the cup, Erican obviously hesitated for a moment, but as his troops continued to suffer losses, he finally made up his mind to drink the blood-red liquid.

As the last drop of liquid disappeared in his mouth, a layer of blood mist spread, with him as the center, and quickly enveloped the entire Erican Territory. Even part of the Holy Empire's troops left behind were included. Wang Jie could not see what happened in the blood mist, and even when he sent a shadow clone to approach, it could not hear anything. The shadow clone shattered and disappeared as soon as it came into contact with the blood mist. It was obvious that this blood mist was aggressive.
