Suddenly, countless arrows flew towards them. More than ten mages stepped forward and formed a huge air shield in the air, but the shield was quickly broken.
One after another, archers resembling savages appeared before them. Not only archers, but also mages and warriors, all adorned with strange tattoos. Luo Chen ordered the mages to retreat.
The archers seemed to sense that Luo Chen was not hostile, so they pushed them aside one by one, and a bald man walked out from the crowd.
“Fioran, that is my name, alien. What is your purpose in invading our territory?”
Luo Chen raised his head, a slight smile playing on his lips: "I've come to help you fulfill your wishes."
"Our wish, do you know what you're talking about?"
Luo Chen smiled faintly: "Of course I know, that's why I said it. Forsaken, this is your last chance to choose."
Fioran's face darkened. This person must have known their identities all along, which meant that Luo Chen had come to find him on purpose.
"Why did you say that?"
Luo Chen looked at him, and the two gradually released their physical auras, trying to overpower each other to the ground. However, they could not determine a winner in a short time. Suddenly, Fioran took two steps back and said, "I lost."
He thought to himself, and then Luo Chen continued, "Do you know that with the failure of the Stormcloak, the Silverblood Clan, for the sake of their long-standing interests, will definitely raise the banner of revenge against the Empire, and the Empire is too weak right now."
Fioran also knew this fact: "Luo Chen, if you can win, I will repay you well."
Luo Chen shook his head: "No, I have other plans for Markars City. Your ancestors were never the masters of this place, and they never will be. I will give you a territory that belongs to you. Are you willing?"
Fioran never expected Luo Chen to say something like that: "Fine, then why should I believe you?"
He murmured a question, and Luo Chen slowly walked up to him: "Why? Not because of 3.5, but because I can take your life with a wave of my hand."
After saying this, Fioran was suddenly enveloped in frost. He tried to break free of the shackles with his fierce energy, but found it was all in vain.
Luo Chen walked lightly to him.
How do you feel now?
Unexpectedly, Luo Chen had taken his life with a mere gesture. What immense power that was! Fioran now completely believed that even if Luo Chen didn't make it Markas City, he could at least make it his own city, allowing his descendants to live on forever.
"Okay, we've completed this transaction."
That night, in Markas.
The soldiers patrolling the streets appeared extremely tense when suddenly a firework slowly rose into the sky.
Chapter 307 The Silver-Blooded Family
The moment the fireworks burst in the sky, the crowd that had been waiting in the city for a long time rushed out.
Before the guards could react in time, they were hacked to pieces.
At that moment, countless arrows shot down from the sky towards the city.
Fioran raised his battle axe high: "Charge!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the Oathsworn picked up their battle axes and charged into the city.
Lord's Longhouse
The lord was sleeping soundly, embracing a beautiful woman, with two bubbles rising from his nose.
Just then, the door to the room was suddenly kicked open.
Tonar went into the room, glanced around, and then saw the lord lying on the bed. He walked over to the man and pulled him off the bed.
Looking at the lord before him, Tonar seemed somewhat disdainful: "My lord, it's time for us to get up."
The lord opened his eyes and glanced at the person beside him: "Butler, where have you been, you damned fellow?"
A man with silver-white hair walked in, carrying two human heads in his hands.
"My lord, it is a great pity that your steward is dead."
The lord stood up in surprise, pointing at the person in front of him and saying, "You...you killed him?"
Tonar shook his head: "My lord, I don't have that kind of free time. Your men died because of you."
The soldier holding his steward's head said, "Lord Tonal, if we don't leave now, it will be too late."
The lord waved his hand dismissively: "No, I still have the court mages to help me hold them off."
Tonar sneered: "What are you talking about? When Luo Chen came last time, he had already crippled your prized court mage."
A hint of hesitation flashed in the lord's eyes. He blinked and said, "Alright, I understand. You guys pack up."
Luo Chen and Tonar, along with a group of Oathsworn and members of the Luo family army, arrived in front of everyone. He and more than ten soldiers kicked open the door of the lord's longhouse.
Suddenly, a burst of scorching flames rushed toward his face.
"Damn it!" Luo Chen cursed inwardly. He stretched out his hand and absorbed the flames in front of him into his body. The surrounding Oathsworn looked at Luo Chen in astonishment, as if he were a monster.
Just then, a roar came from somewhere, drawing everyone's attention. Luo Chen immediately led his men and rushed over.
All that could be seen lying on the ground were the corpses of Luo Jiajun.
Luo Chen clenched his fists tightly: "This is outrageous! I was already humiliated by you last time with the Silver Blood Clan. This time, you actually dare to step on my head."
Upon hearing this, the members of Luo Family Army under his command clenched their fists.
"Master, don't worry, we will definitely cut off the heads of all those scoundrels."
Luo Chen smiled faintly: "Don't just talk the talk."
Agul appeared out of nowhere, and although he was covered in blood, his eyes revealed a hint of longing.
"Master, I want to fight!"
Luo Chen turned her head and stared at him: "You want to fight? Fight with whom?"
"Empire, Stormcloak, all who stand in the way of their master shall die!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The members of Luo Family Army raised their weapons high and shouted.
Tonar led the lord to the towering boulder in the city, from where they could take in the entire city of Markars at a glance.
The lord nervously grabbed his trouser leg: "Tonar, are we going to die this time?"
Tonal pulled at the door: "My lord, on the very first day of our cooperation, we established a rule that as long as the Silverblood family exists, so too will you."
The lord lowered his head and smiled: "Tornal, you are right, you are right."
Tonar smiled again: "Alright, just do as I say from now on, such as handing over all military power in Kamas to me."
The lord hesitated for a moment, then pulled out a small plaque from his person: "This has been enchanted by a great prophet, please be careful, Tonar."
Tonar looked at the small black log sign and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He took the sign from the lord's hand and held it high in the sky. At that moment, the eyes of the surrounding soldiers seemed to change slightly.
He drew his weapon: "In fact, the moment Stormcloak died, our agreement had already become meaningless."
After he finished speaking, the glaring sword pierced directly into the lord's chest.
The soldiers surrounded them, and the Luo family army and the Oathbreakers surrounded them in the middle. Shields were placed in front of them one after another, and spears were placed in front of them one after another.
Agul stared at the group of imperial soldiers in front of him, snorted coldly, picked up his battle axe and shouted "Kill!" Immediately, everyone rushed forward.
However, those spears pierced the chests of the Luo family army brothers, and they all fell to the ground. When Aguer saw this, he felt a pang of heartache.
Luo Chen also saw all their actions, and summoned a fire dragon with both hands, throwing it directly at the Imperial soldiers.
The fire dragon entered the crowd, like a dragon entering the sea. However, the imperial soldiers seemed to have lost their focus, and their strength was immense.
Even as flames scorched their bodies, they remained steadfast at the forefront of the battle.
Luo Chen smiled faintly: "Did you see that, Aguer? Even an empire will use all sorts of deceptive methods."
After saying this, Aguer once again led his men to launch an attack, but the soldiers of the Luo family army seemed to be even more fearless than them.
Even knowing they would fall to the spears, they still wouldn't give up the chance to get through.
After Tonar pulled out his staff, the entire sky seemed to change. Black mist shrouded the sky, and bolts of lightning struck down one after another.
An ancient aura emanated from the sky, as if a dragon was roaring there.
Luo Chen's eyes widened: "Not good!"
He used a summoning spell, Luo Chen shouted in his heart, and at the same time, a Heaven-Destroying Sword was already in his hands.
Tonal seemed to sense the change coming from Luo Chen's side as well. His eyes widened: "Luo Chen, you've ruined my years of scheming, and now you want my life? Come on then!"
Chapter 308 Liberating Markas
As Luo Chen charged toward the imperial soldiers, he clearly saw a hint of fear in the eyes of those men who were not even afraid of flames.
He leaped lightly into the air and began to float upwards, stepping on their heads as he flew toward the towering boulder.
Tonal glanced at the two people behind him.
The two silver-blooded guards suddenly rushed forward, each drawing a sword.
The sword pierced towards Luo Chen, who was forced to retreat to the side of the boulder. Tonar sneered, "You think you can take my life? You're dreaming."
After saying that, he didn't notice that Luo Chen had disappeared.
The swords of the two silver-blooded guards drifted to Luo Chen's side, as if something was draining from his body.
Luo Chen sensed this and, after deflecting their swords, quickly peered into his body, only to find that his blood was trickling out of his skin, drop by drop, along his veins.
"So the swords in your hands also have the function of sucking blood. How amazing."
Luo Chen looked at the changes in his body with surprise, but he seemed to have overlooked the people opposite him.
"By the way, what exactly were those things you were wearing just now?"
The two Silverblood Guards exchanged a glance and lunged at Luo Chen again. However, this time, Luo Chen seemed not to see them at all. He simply reached out and grabbed their weapons, placing them in his own hand.
The Heaven-Destroying Sword returned to its back, and the two swords in its hands, like a storm, stabbed directly into his body.
Luo Chen gave the two of them a disdainful look.
"Our weapons? How is that possible?"
The two Silverblood Guardians, having lost their weapons, were surprised but still tried to take Luo Chen's life. However, in Luo Chen's eyes, their movements were like a slow-motion replay in a movie.
Their figures vanished before their eyes, and the two silver-blooded guards, momentarily stunned, collapsed towards the crowd beneath the boulder, letting out a pitiful scream.
Before he even hit the ground, he had already been pierced through the body by a spear.
Tonar reluctantly put down his staff: "Luochen, when my master's messenger arrives, you will be turned into a pile of dung."
Luo Chen looked at him and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing: "You think you can beat me?"
Tonar laughed heartily: "That's right, I can sense that I am no match for you, so I specially brought the Dragon Envoy."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a bolt of lightning struck in Luo Chen's direction. Luo Chen's figure flashed and he appeared directly behind him. Before Tonar could react, two silver-blooded swords were already in front of him.
At this crucial moment, a figure appeared in front of Luo Chen, holding Luo Chen's two silver blood swords in one hand.
"Brother Luo Chen, I don't know if you've ever heard the saying, 'One should be forgiving when one can.' Isn't this unnecessary?"
Luo Chen snorted coldly: "I'll return those words to you: the moment you decided to commit crimes against all the people of the sky, you were destined to fail."
The man seemed completely uninterested in Luo Chen's words. With a gentle grip, the two swords shattered instantly.
Luo Chen immediately darted away, and the Dragon Envoy stretched his hands behind his back. It was easy to see that his hands were bleeding.
The dragon messenger lowered his hand: "My master is really interested in you. I can let you go today, but there is one condition."
Luo Chen looked at him with suspicion: "What are the conditions?"
Seeing that Luo Chen was not going to tolerate him and seemed to really want to become the master of this world, the Dragon Envoy couldn't help but laugh: "Fine, then I'm not afraid to say it directly. As long as you put a few gray-bearded heads in front of us, everything is negotiable."
Luo Chen looked at him: "Without Greybeard, aren't you afraid of Blade and the others?"
"Those two people who traveled all over Skyrim for an organization that has vanished?"
Luo Chen nodded.
The Dragon Envoy laughed loudly: "What do I have to fear? Those two pieces of trash, I can make them disappear from this world in a minute."
Luo Chen understood that he looked down on him completely, but this actually allowed Luo Chen to gain an advantage.
"Dragon Envoy, I cannot agree to your conditions. If you try to stop me today, I will completely submit to Greybeard's side. With my current power, even your backers will find it troublesome, right?"
The Dragon Envoy never expected that Luo Chen would dare to threaten him here.
