Chapter 1, Lords of the People
In the dark cave, from time to time came the heavy gasps of the beast.
In the clearing in front of the cave.
Several peasants armed with stone axes and pickaxes, driven forward by the lord, little by little.
Syllable!!
The lord raised his whip and slammed it on a peasant.
The whip was made of vine branches, covered with tiny barbs, and when it was whipped, a terrible bloody streak appeared on the peasant's back.
Hiss!
Fang Hao gasped.
The scorching pain made him sober up instantly.
Suddenly turned back.
Then he saw a man with a whip in his hand, looking at him fiercely.
"Hurry in, don't take out the treasure chest, I'll peel you off."
Syllable!
The man roared, and another whip was fired in the air.
Without waiting for Fang Hao to react, a prompt suddenly sounded in his ears.
[Welcome to the All-Conqueror Game.] 】
[Recruit farmers, gather resources, train soldiers, expand your territory, use everything you can use, and try to survive!] 】
[The territory is your safe place, and developing it will give you a better chance of survival. 】
[Please be kind to the peasants and soldiers you recruit, once your peasants and soldiers lose loyalty, it is likely that passive sabotage and defection will occur!] 】
[If you meet the same kind, congratulations, you caught a fat pig, of course, if the strength is not as good as people, the fat pig is you. 】
[Countdown to Newbie Protection: 6 days 23 hours and 40 minutes, during which your territory will not be attacked!] 】
[For more features, please check the Book of Lords!] 】
[Finally, good luck!] 】
After listening carefully to the prompt, Fang Hao's face changed dramatically in an instant.
Crossing him is acceptable.
But it seems that his situation at this time is not optimistic.
Dressed like a peasant, the man with a grim face behind him is more like a lord.
And there is a brown leather book hanging from his waist, which must be the book of the lord in the prompt.
"It's over, I'm cannon fodder!" Fang Hao secretly scolded for being unlucky.
The five villagers moved slowly.
The peasants on the side wept and begged for mercy loudly.
"My lord, we're just ordinary peasants, and we can't steal treasure chests."
But this plea for mercy was not exchanged for the sympathy of the lord.
"Grass, no nonsense, hurry inside." The man cursed loudly.
His expression was fierce and impatient.
The five villagers had no choice but to move on.
Fang Hao didn't speak from beginning to end, nor did he look back.
Apparently.
This lord is to explore the path of the peasants, and he is destined to obtain resources and increase the advantage in the early stage.
No matter how bad it is, it is to sacrifice these peasants, and it has no effect on him.
The five of them moved forward step by step.
Eventually, I walked into the cave.
The deeper you go, the darker the cave becomes.
The beast's wheezing sound became clearer and clearer.
The peasant's expression began to grow more and more frightened, and some of them began to swing their legs, and they could only hold on to the wall, barely moving forward.
After dragging his steps little by little, he finally went to the depths and saw the owner of the cave.
This is a giant brown tiger.
The black markings are huge, far larger than the tigers Fang Hao saw on TV.
At this time.
The tiger's scarlet eyes were staring at them.
It reveals ferocity and resentment.
"Old ...... Tiger, it's over. ”
The peasants were nervous.
With their combat strength, they will never be able to defeat an adult tiger.
"It's hurt." Fang Hao whispered.
The cave was dim, the air smelled of blood, and if you looked closely, you could see that the tiger was injured.
And the injuries are serious.
Underneath the abdomen, there was a buildup of dark red blood.
"Let's, let's stick to the wall, take the treasure chest and leave." One whispered.
If they didn't take out the treasure chest, the lord obviously wouldn't stop, so they had to suppress the fear in their hearts, and walked around the tiger little by little towards the treasure chest inside.
I prayed in my heart that the tiger would not pay attention to them because of his injuries.
A few people moved slowly against the wall.
The tiger's eyes stared at them, turning little by little as several people moved.
When it is discovered that these humans are trying to bypass themselves and go straight to the treasure chest.
With an angry roar, he dragged the blood and internal organs all over the ground and rushed towards Fang Hao and the others.
"Fight, kill it, or we'll all have to die." Fang Hao shouted loudly, swinging the stone axe in his hand.
For a while, the angry roar of the tiger and the screams of the villagers sounded in the cave.
……
A few minutes later.
Fang Hao walked out covered in blood, stood at the entrance of the cave, and beckoned to the man looking into the distance.
"The monster inside is dead?" The man shouted from afar.
Fang Hao nodded.
An unconcealable look of joy suddenly appeared on the man's face, "Great, great." ”
With a muttering in his mouth, he ran towards the cave.
Entering the cave, looking at the tiger on the ground and the corpses of the four villagers, he walked inside without stopping for half a minute.
When he saw the wooden treasure chest, a trace of doubt suddenly appeared on his face.
"How was it opened?"
That's when it happened.
A penetrating sense of crisis came from behind.
Quiver!
It was like the sound of chopping wood.
A stone axe slashed at his neck from behind.
The blade of the axe made of stone was not sharp, but it still tore through his flesh and blood, and even the hard neck bone was cut in half.
"You ,......。" The man's eyes widened with rage, and his eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.
How is this possible, how can the farmers sent by the system launch an attack on themselves?
Why is this happening?
Fang Hao's second axe slashed out again.
Blood splattered.
A head fell off in an instant and rolled to the side.
[As a peasant, you kill the domain lord, and the sin value is +500.] 】
……
Fang Hao exhaled heavily.
Bend down and take off the book at the other person's waist.
The cover of the book is in brown leather with gorgeous gold streaks embossed on it.
In the middle, there are four big characters of the Book of Lords.
With the touch of the Book of Lords.
The prompt reappears.
[Liege's initial data error detected, data corrected.] 】
[Compensation will be issued, a hundredfold increase.] 】
[Detect the lord's sin value of 500, and automatically divide the evil camp --- the undead.] 】
Finished!
Hearing the new prompt, Fang Hao's heart tightened.
Because he killed the lord just now, he was directly divided into the evil camp.
Isn't he the enemy of the whole people?
But in the next moment, he calmed down again.
Even if he was divided into the evil camp, he did not regret it, it was better than being a peasant in the hands of this man.
Continue to the Book of Lords.
Flip through it and see a different title written on each page.
[Resources] [Manufacturing] [Buildings] [Channels].
It's similar to a paper material, but like a tablet, you can click at will and get feedback.
Turn the first page [Resources], and the current number of resources is 0.
In Crafting, [Twine] [Stone Axe] [Stone Pickaxe] has been unlocked.
In the building, the [Level 1 Farmhouse] has been unlocked.
It's just that the next moment after opening, the [first-level farmhouse] instantly becomes a [first-level cemetery].
Presumably, it's because of the relationship between himself and the undead camp.
Continue to the channel page.
[Permission to speak, 10 per day.] 】
Then one message after another, quickly emerged.
"Has anyone left the village? Is it dangerous outside? ”
"Who will save me, there is a wild boar about the size of a tiger outside the village, so the old lady will really let the pig arch."
"I'll go, it's so exciting, ask for paid content."
"How are your peasants? A few minutes ago, a few hyenas ran at the gate of the village, and the villagers did not dare to go out to work. ”
"It's over, there's a giant python outside my village, and it just swallowed two of my villagers."
……
One message after another.
Reading between the lines, the dangers of this world are reflected.
Many more are trapped in the village and afraid to go out.
The lord who hacked to death by himself was also a ruthless man, and walked out with the villagers.
Also try to go deep into the tiger's den and steal the treasure chest.
Unfortunately, he died in the cave because of this.
Close the chat channel.
Fang Hao came to the tiger corpse again, and he hid the contents of the treasure chest under the huge tiger corpse body.
[Second-order demonic beast Demon Spotted Tiger, is it slaughtered? ] 】
Be!
[After the slaughter is completed, you will get 600 meat, 45 hides, and 25 bones.] 】
After obtaining the Book of Lieges, he also gained the abilities that a liege should have.
