It was the last five days before the sacrificial ceremony.
The weather was gloomy.
"Many of those nobles have temporarily deposited their treasures in Duke Morton's Mansion." Lorraine was secretly surprised after reading the report.
"It's not surprising. It's not absolutely safe to hide the treasures in other places in the capital. Storing them in Duke Morton's Mansion. On the one hand, they might believe in the power of the Duke's Mansion. On the other hand, they might be tempting us."
Tang Yu said, he was also wearing a black robe with a set of silver armor inside. "These days, many transcendents have come out of seclusion. There are a lot of people coming in and out of the Duke's Mansion. There might be a lot of transcendents among them. I'm afraid Duke Morton is aware of this. It's hard to hide it from us. He's declaring war on us."
Gray Blade was more thoughtful, "Then should we attack the other mansions from time to time?"
"No."
"As for the greater nobles with deeper resources, we've either already obtained the World Tree branches from their treasure vaults, or they've already moved their treasure vaults elsewhere … It's impossible to collect all of the scattered World Tree branches, but we already have quite a few in our hands. As long as we get the Duke's Mansion's batch, we'll have enough.
Duke Morton may be confident in himself, but don't you guys have confidence in yourselves? "
Shay said, "The Lord is right. Let's just attack!"
Lorraine brushed her hair, "I heard Duke Morton is very rich. Plus the treasures stored by other nobles … I think I can already see a mountain of treasures. Even if we can only get 10% of the harvest from this operation, it's still …"
Her eyes were about to light up.
Bamboo Rat Oguri urged, "Then let's hurry up. I must let them know what an illusion is!"
Tang Yu stretched out two fingers, "There are two things you're wrong about.
First, Oguri, your mission today is different from ours. It's the same as Protoss and Moon. While we're fighting the Duke's Mansion, take the opportunity to plunder the World Tree from other mansions. Take as much as you can. In this regard, you three are better at it. When the time comes, act separately and speed up. If you encounter an ambush you can't resist, just use the Town Portal Scroll to leave the battlefield. "
She felt that she was already a useless rat, but she didn't dare to refute. She still remembered that she had been tricked by the Lord last time!
"Secondly, the 10% reward refers to the situation where there are only two people in a team. In reality, the members who participate in the operation will share 20% of the reward equally. But for this operation, besides me …"
Lorraine was stunned. She glanced at Shay, Gray Blade, Fanny, Sky, herself, and Hong Yue and the others who came from the Tree Shade. Let alone 10%, she didn't even know if there was 3% … Hey, can you not ask for reinforcements?
From her expression, Tang Yu knew what she was thinking.
The face-reading technique was especially useful when it came to money-grubbers and foodies.
However, it was impossible for him to get a high quota. As a lord, he was also helpless! Optimizing the system buildings required money, developing the territory required money, and paying the salaries of the officials and soldiers under his command required money as well …
Don 'I'm so tired and want to get rich overnight' Yu did not want to speak.
"It's about time. Let's go."
…
Duke Morton's Mansion.
In the past two days, some transcendents secretly entered the mansion. But for most of the guards and servants in the mansion, the Duke's Mansion was still the same as before.
However, because of some recent rumors in the Kingdom, the guards guarding the Duke's Mansion didn't dare to be careless and patrolled carefully.
"The rumors are fake. I think it's been peaceful recently. Who would dare to sneak into our Duke's Mansion?"
"Who knows. Although I don't think so, at least we have to pretend. If there really is a thief who dares to sneak into the mansion, we can be serious and catch them. Isn't it just a matter of time before we get promoted and get rich?"
"That's right …"
Woo!
A piercing alarm sounded.
Countless arrays emerged on the ground and in the air of the Duke's Mansion.
At the same time.
A terrifying aura pressure erupted from a distance.
The frightened guards looked into the distance and saw several figures in black robes standing in mid-air.
From a distance, overlooking the mansion.
"Black Robe Organization!"
"I've been waiting for a long time!"
As if they had teleported, the instant the alarm sounded, nearly ten figures appeared in midair, confronting the black-robed man from afar.
Soon, more and more transcendents rose from the mansion and rushed to the battlefield.
Duke Morton stood at the front. His cold gaze swept across the six black-robed figures. "You're all here? That's right, but … this is all within my expectations."
Looking at the almost fifty transcendents beside him, Duke Morton said, "Even though you're prepared, unfortunately, I'm more prepared."
Twenty transcendents belonged to the Duke's Mansion. The other thirty he invited were all powerful transcendents. Such a force was stronger than ten Marquis's Manors.
He couldn't think of any reason to fail.
Even so, Duke Morton didn't plan to waste time and didn't underestimate the enemy. He immediately activated several reinforcement arrays with the branches of the World Tree as the core to provide reinforcement to the most powerful transcendents present.
These people from the Black Robe Organization are strong, but they're outsiders after all. If we beat them half to death, we might be able to recruit them. "
The power of a single large array boosted Duke Morton's strength by almost ten times in a short period of time. The surging waves of air moved the allies beside him a few steps to the side.
On one side, there were aristocratic transcendents with different equipment. On the other side, there were figures in black robes.
Both sides released their aura without reservation. The whole sky seemed to be divided into two halves. Visible to the naked eye, there was a dividing line in the middle, and at this time, it was moving towards the black-robed camp.
Tang Yu raised an eyebrow.
In terms of aura alone, they were a little weaker.
After all, they had fewer people. In terms of realm, they weren't much stronger than the other side. At least seven and three nuclear powers were at Rank 1 Transcendents. Coupled with the influence of the World Tree Array …
"So, let's just do it."
"Haha, I've been waiting for the Lord to say that."
Shay fired a cannon, and a huge fireball bloomed in the air. Waves of air surged outwards.
Holding two swords in his hands, an invisible sword domain spread out, colliding with the unstable domain built by the World Tree Array and squeezing it.
Lorraine, Gray Blade, and Fanny also attacked one after another.
Balls of fire bloomed in the air, and the roar resounded incessantly. The clouds were torn open one after another, and the light curtain covering the Duke's Mansion in the distance rippled.
There were nearly 40 transcendents besieging Shay's group of five, most of whom were senior transcendents.
And the main force was a few transcendents whose strength had been greatly improved.
On the battlefield, Shay and the others were already at a disadvantage.
The Duke's Mansion was indeed well-prepared. Although Hong Yue and Gretel were still hiding, even if they joined in, they might not be able to finish the battle in a short time.
His gaze fell on Duke Morton. Unlike the other aristocrats who had their power skyrocketed after the blessing, but their control was greatly reduced. Duke Morton's power skyrocketed, but his control was still not weak, and the power dissipated wasn't much …
It could only mean that Duke Morton had tried to activate the World Tree Array more than once.
He's a rich man.
"Not only that, but the Duke's Mansion's array is of a higher level, and the domain power that it spreads out is more stable. Except for Sky, the others were more or less affected by the domain."
Tang Yu himself felt uncomfortable, like a mountain was pressing down on him.
There were still a few transcendents around, ready to attack at any time.
He snapped his fingers, and his personal domain spread out.
Buzz-
An invisible wave spread out, and the domain pressure enveloping his body was expelled. He suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.
He expanded his personal domain to about a kilometer and felt no hindrance. He looked at Sky again. Although he wasn't affected, his sword domain was squeezed, and the range was normal.
"Maybe the level of the personal domain is higher."
His domain continued to spread, two kilometers, three kilometers, five kilometers … Suddenly, it overshadowed a top transcendent who was blessed by the World Tree Array.
Suddenly, the transcendent's expression changed, and the power of the blessing on his body fluctuated. Fanny, who seized the opportunity, slapped him.
Tang Yu touched his chin, "Could it be that because the blessing originated from the World Tree Array's domain, once the domain is affected, the power of the blessing will also be affected. Then what if the domain is completely broken?"
The core of the array was generally hidden deep and difficult to destroy. He didn't have a similar idea before. But now, it seemed he could directly point it out.
Great Lord Tang stabilized the mask on his face, teleported a few kilometers away, and arrived not far from the top transcendent who was struck down by Fanny.
Concentrating, he controlled his personal domain to completely disperse the surrounding domain power created by the World Tree Array.
