Chapter 365: Chapter 185: Triumphant Return, Rewards for ritorious Service!
[-12056]
A massive damage exploded!
This Hunter Killer, with third-tier Elite Level strength, was taken down by Sarah in a single move!
Before his Life Value hit zero, he tried with all his remaining strength to turn back and glimpse his assailant.
However, Sarah directly snapped his neck.
He probably never realized until his death that there was an assassin lurking in the shadows, and such a powerful one at that!
After finishing off this guy, Sarah dragged his corpse to the side.
Then she re-entered Stealth State, silently waiting.
She only left once she confird the raging fire had utterly destroyed the Camp, leaving no survivors.
Then, Sarah departed from the site…
…
At ten o’clock that night.
Cao Xing led the army back to the vicinity of the Territory.
And Sarah quietly and silently returned to the ranks.
Cao Xing, through the Communication Device at his ear, was already inford of the situation in the camp.
It turned out there was still a survivor hidden!
However, fortunately, he had made multiple preparations, and now all potential threats were thoroughly eliminated.
At the mont, the Territory’s iron gate opened.
Over a dozen Wild Boar Warriors marched in with full vigor, like triumphant warriors, entering the Territory with imnse power.
anwhile, the subjects in the Territory also stepped out of their hos.
They all knew Cao Xing had led a force to fight tonight.
And it was the first ti he had led so many soldiers into battle.
So, these subjects were eager to find out the outco of the battle.
Or rather, what the casualties were.
When they saw that most of the faces were present, they started to smile with relief.
However, they also saw those few soldier corpses, and their expressions froze imdiately…
Cao Xing slowly spoke: “As you can see, we have won this battle.”
“But similarly, we have had so casualties.”
“This saddens and it is also a sign of my inadequacy…”
Upon hearing this, Wild Boar Warrior Rab exclaid excitedly: “Lord! You need not be saddened or bla yourself.”
“We, the Wild Boar Tribe Warriors, take pride in battle; death is rely a return to the embrace of the Beast God!”
Next to him, Ascalon Elite Yaskin also said.
“Indeed, my Lord, soldiers dying on the battlefield is our glory.”
“Moreover, this ti, we achieved unprecedented battle results.”
“This is the most astonishing battle I’ve participated in since I enlisted.”
“With the sacrifice of five, we annihilated nearly six hundred Cultists, it was undoubtedly a miraculous victory!”
Yaskin’s words were acknowledged by everyone.
Even Holy Light Priest Isabel and Queen Blood Spider knew how incredible tonight’s battle was.
Yet Cao Xing shook his head and said: “I know compared to the results achieved tonight, the deaths of these five warriors may seem inconsequential.”
“But they are not just cold numbers; they have their own nas and identities.”
“They are my subjects!”
“We cannot just lightly forget these fallen heroes!”
Hearing these words, all the Ascalon Soldiers and Wild Boar Warriors paused.
None of them had expected Cao Xing to value the sacrifices of these five so much.
“Lord…”
Assam seed to want to say sothing.
But Cao Xing shook his head.
“Tomorrow, we must hold a funeral for these heroes and designate a Hero Tomb area within the Territory.”
“From now on, whether staff or our warriors.”
“Any who sacrifice their lives for the Territory shall be buried in this area.”
“As long as our Territory exists, they will be rembered. If our Territory exists for a thousand years, they will be rembered for a thousand years!”
After Cao Xing finished speaking, all the subjects stood in solemn respect, a surge of emotion welling in their hearts.
Especially those Ascalon Soldiers, and the soldiers of the Kaisan Empire, who even shed tears.
Until now, they had never thought they could receive such treatnt.
After all, they were just ordinary troops.
Just taking a few strong-bodied people from the commoners, with a little training, they could be sent to fight.
In this world, the lives of ordinary soldiers are not valued.
Even dying on the battlefield would not attract much attention.
A large-scale war results in tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of deaths.
For these soldiers, the most that would be offered is a little compensation to their relatives.
This is the kind of treatnt only powerful empires can afford.
More often, soldiers are buried where they fall, until one day hungry beasts dig them up, leaving not even the bodies.
However, their Lord gave these deceased ones such a respectful treatnt.
In this cold world, for the first ti, they felt the dignity that should co with being human.
At this mont, tears welled in Assam’s eyes as he was the first to kneel on one knee.
“It is our honor to fight under your leadership!”
“I seem to now understand the significance of being sealed in the Different Space back then, it was to et a Lord like you!”
“We are willing to shed our last drop of blood and sweat for you and the Territory!”
Assam was soone Cao Xing had elevated step by step from being an ordinary knight.
He felt this more deeply than anyone, and held deeper affection for this Territory.
So, the voice of this resolute knight trembled with emotion.
The emotions of all mbers of the Territory were stirred up.
Tears of warmth rolled down their cheeks.
