Chapter 497: Ghost Masters, One by One
The residents of Rainless City were initially very afraid, considering that the Ghost Clan was attacking from outside. Faced with the terror of the Ghost Clan, almost every person from Yan Yun Star was well aware.
However, suddenly, a group of soldiers apprehended some of the familiar noble gentlemen, claiming they were sentenced to death and prepared for a public execution. Curious, they left their homes and gathered in an open square.
"I am an Earl of the kingdom, and even the City Lord has no right to kill me! You damned soldiers, release me!" Count Nolan, at this moment, had lost all traces of his noble demeanor. His hair was disheveled, his hands were tied behind his back, and his face had two bruises, making him look disheveled.
He wasn''t the only one; the appearance of other nobles wasn''t much better.
There were over fifty noble families in Rainless City, and more than forty of them were involved in this scheme. In other words, the majority of the nobles were planning to side with the Ghost Clan.
"Aren''t those noble gentlemen? What happened to them?" someone asked, puzzled.
At this moment, a clever-looking young man spoke with a self-satisfied tone, "I have inside information. I heard that these noble gentlemen wanted to align with the Ghost Clan and create chaos within the city. You must have heard about the murders, robberies, and arson on the streets, right? It was all done by these damned noble gentlemen. They simply don''t deserve to be called human! If it weren''t for the foresight of City Lord, we would probably be facing death right now."
This news spread quickly, and soon, everyone knew why the once haughty noble gentlemen were in this state.
"Kill them!"
A single word, filled with a thousand thoughts and emotions: kill!
Faced with the rage of the crowd, these noble gentlemen felt fear for the first time, but they no longer had a choice. The moment they decided to side with the Ghost Clan, they ceased to be part of humanity.
"Behead them!" With a command from a soldier, all the nobles knelt and were executed, their beheadings displayed to the public. The blood dyed the area red, sending shivers down people''s spines.
The deaths of the city''s nobles, given the Ghost Clan''s attack, were not a significant event. However, this incident seemed to have hit the frail Ghost Master hard, making his complexion extremely unsightly.
"Damn humans, they dared to ruin my good plans!" To the frail Ghost Master, toying with human intelligence was a fascinating endeavor.
Unfortunately, the thing that interested him the most had been disrupted, leading him to contemplate destroying Rainless City directly.
In fact, Su Chen didn''t originally intend to intervene, but he reconsidered; Number Three Spy''s exposed identity wouldn''t be a good thing for him, so he had to do it this way.
If others took action, it would be easy to uncover their identity, but with the Mutant Ghost Rabbit''s intervention, no one would suspect what was going on.
Think about it, who had ever seen a Rabbit that could swallow a Ghost Master in one gulp?
This could also be considered the Mutant Ghost Rabbit''s official debut. Before this, the Ghost Clan had no idea that such a Rabbit existed in the world.
As the battle in the sky gradually ended, the number of eighth-order Ghost Clan member corpses falling to the ground continued to increase—from one to two, then one to four. Number Three Spy knew it was time for her to retreat.
So, she forcibly forced out a mouthful of blood and uttered a classic line, "I will return!"
Following Su Chen''s orders, the Rabbit naturally didn''t actually chase after her; it simply pretended to chase her for a distance before returning.
The failure of the Ghost Clan''s powerful figures had a tremendous impact on the lower-ranking Ghost Clan members. They had never imagined that their own powerhouses couldn''t defeat the humans. How was this possible?
"Retreat!" a seventh-order Ghost Clan member urgently issued the order to withdraw. If they continued fighting, the Ghost Clan would be wiped out.
Even without the powerful figures'' battle, the lower-ranked Ghost Clan members didn''t have the upper hand in the ensuing battle. They hadn''t expected that even with the Ghost God Army deployed, they couldn''t gain the advantage. What was going on with these humans?
The Weapons they were using were incredibly potent, far more powerful than any Weapons they were familiar with. Some peculiar Weapons inflicted severe damage to their bodies, making them completely unable to resist.
Many Ghost Clan members died from these powerful Weapons. Just when they managed to get close, a group of Giants that looked even more like Ghost Clan members than them suddenly appeared. What was going on with these guys?
As the Ghost Clan retreated, the humans were naturally unwilling to let them go. They immediately pursued and chased them for over a thousand miles before finally letting them go. However, by that time, the Ghost Clan had mostly been wiped out.
"All right, let''s see what''s happening in the other cities next." (To be continued...)
