Qin's army quickly invaded a region and surrounded a system main city. This system main city's City Lord had already died, and it wasn't those who had surrendered or those who had been captured. Otherwise, they would have been able to coerce them into surrendering.
Right now, each system main city only had 400,000 people, and because most of the soldiers had died, they didn't have much battle power. Most of them were just commoners.
This system main city had already been relocated, and its walls had been destroyed. Now, most of the residents were packing their things and preparing to escape.
However, they had never thought that Qin's army would surround their system main city so quickly.
Zhao Fu didn't waste any words and ordered those who were willing to surrender to come out, while those who were unwilling were to burn down the city. Zhao Fu didn't want to charge in and cause unnecessary casualties.
Under the might of the army and the City Lords, most people were quite rational and chose to surrender. There were roughly 280,000 people, and there were 100,000 or so people who refused to surrender and stubbornly resisted within the system main city.
Zhao Fu ordered fire arrows to be fired, and the entire system main city was set ablaze. Flames devoured everything, and many people were burned to death. Some people wanted to rush out and fight to the death with Qin, but they were shot down by the Archers, and corpses littered the ground.
After quickly dealing with this system main city, Qin's army headed to the next system main city. This system main city's City Lord had already surrendered, so they easily obtained 400,000 people.
After obtaining so many people, Zhao Fu started to construct teleportation channels to send these people back to Qin City. Otherwise, it would be difficult to move around with hundreds of thousands of residents.
Just like that, Qin continuously attacked system main city after system main city. Because of the lack of time, some system main city's people had run away, but Qin's gains were still quite shocking.
A few days later …
Zhao Fu sat in the Meeting Hall and listened to Wang Jian's report. Qin had taken 5.4 million people, which was a quarter of Qin City's population. Zhao Fu had to be very careful to pacify them in order to prevent anything unexpected from happening.
Apart from people, Qin had obtained countless EXP from relocating 16 system main cities, causing the Great City to level up.
Moreover, Zhao Fu had also obtained six Region Treasure Chests. With how precious Region Treasure Chests were, obtaining six at once caused Zhao Fu to smile.
The other forces also learned that the Eastern Alliance had suffered a crushing defeat. Some of them were glad that they didn't choose to be enemies with Qin, but they also regretted a little. If they could really unite, they might be able to defeat Qin. But now that Qin's power was several times greater, the three forces had no chance.
…
While Xianru was writing, Zhao Fu looked at the four women in front of him. They were naturally the four City Lords that Qin had captured.
One wore a red dress and had bright red lips. She had a pretty face and a graceful figure, and she gave off a bewitching aura. She was called Fu Ningqin.
The second one was only 15 years old and looked very cute. It was unknown how she became the City Lord, but her name was Gongliang Qinruo.
The third was also very beautiful. She had a slim figure and fair skin. She was a typical beauty. Her name was Pang Ziling.
The fourth was a mature woman with a mature figure and alluring looks. She was called Li Chun.
Zhao Fu glanced at them and started to make them Concubines. As City Lords, they had a lot of Phoenix Qi, and the Emperor Phoenix's power was also quite great.
Now, Qin now had 16 more City Lord Seals. Zhao Fu did not take away the City Lord Seals from those who had surrendered, and he gave the remaining City Lord Seals to those who had performed well.
Following this, there were six Region Treasure Chests. These were all good items, and they were all incredibly valuable. Zhao Fu was quite excited.
After opening the first Region Treasure Chest, light shined out, and a talisman paper appeared in front of Zhao Fu.
This talisman paper was blood-red, and it was two fingers wide and 30 centimeters long. It was quite thin and long, and there were black lines and runes drawn on it. The talisman paper itself gave off a very strange aura.
[Corpse Transformation Sword]: A very evil talisman paper that is incredibly difficult to create. It can turn a corpse into a sword, and the higher the grade of the corpse, the higher the grade of the sword.
Zhao Fu felt that this talisman paper was quite effective, and he eagerly opened the second Region Treasure Chest.
After the light dissipated, a massive item appeared in front of Zhao Fu. It was another Dragon-Slaying Ballista, and with its power, this second item was quite good.
Following this, Zhao Fu opened the third Region Treasure Chest, and a square piece of green jade appeared in front of Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu felt quite curious and looked at its stats.
[Bluestone Divine Art]: S grade, Type: Art, Description: A Stone-attribute Art that gives one powerful defense after cultivating. It is one of the most powerful Arts.
"Art?"
Zhao Fu was quite surprised – there was no shortage of Arts in the Heaven Awaken World. Basic Arts could be found on the streets, and they could be bought easily. Moreover, they could easily drop from killing creatures.
If you had a Profession Change Stone Stele, you could carve a Basic Art into the Profession Change Stone Stele, allowing you to learn Arts. As such, Arts were quite cheap in the Heaven Awaken World.
Of course, this was only limited to Basic Arts. In actuality, Arts were split into different grades, just like soldiers. Basic Arts were quite easy to obtain, but the higher grade Arts were, the rarer they were.
Moreover, they required items to carry items, and most people could only use items to learn Arts. For example, the Bluestone Divine Art that Zhao Fu had carried was this green jade. Only by using the green jade could Zhao Fu cultivate the Bluestone Divine Art. Even if others knew about it, they would not be able to cultivate it.
As for Arts, Zhao Fu did not care much about them, as they were all quite low-grade. Even if there were some high-grade Arts, only a single person could learn them.
Zhao Fu did not care much about these Arts, nor did he plan to cultivate the Bluestone Divine Art. This was because Zhao Fu had a legacy Art, the 'Qin Heart Sutra'.
There were a few benefits to cultivating legacy Arts. The first was that it could level up as the city grew, the second was that it could receive stat buffs, such as cultivation speed and recovery speed, and the third was that its aura could fuse more with Qin, making it more compatible with Qin's legacy items.
The 'Qin Heart Sutra' was split into a few grades, and it would change according to one's position. For ordinary soldiers, the 'Qin Heart Sutra' was a D grade Art.
However, if he became a Captain, his Art would become the 'Qin Military Cultivation', which was a C grade Art. If he became a General, his Art would become the 'Qin Martial Cultivation', which was B grade Art. If he became a General, his Art would become the 'Qin General Heart', which was A grade Art.
As the ruler of Qin and the future Emperor of Qin, Zhao Fu cultivated the 'Qin King Art', which was S grade Art.
