Chapter 218: Chapter 138: The Fall of a Territory, A New Enemy_2

He had a premonition that he couldn’t escape anymore.

What he faced was not merely a Territory War, the opponent would not allow this territory to continue existing.

At that time, there would be no need for him, the Lord, to exist either.

"Can they escape?" Bob, who was beside Richardson, asked.

He was Richardson’s confidant, his whole life belonged to Richardson, and he was very clear about some matters by Richardson’s side.

He understood that this Territory War was a disaster for them.

However, he was reluctant.

It didn’t matter if he died, but the Lord, such a good person, should not!

He hoped that Richardson could escape.

He placed this faint hope on a group of tourists from Hope Village.

After all, the things they brought were indeed novel, perhaps hiding some special capabilities.

"Maybe not! Their Levels are too low, basically having just become Basic-level Mages, unable to use even the most basic combat Magic Spells, and still using such primitive methods of combat, the probability of escape is too small," Richardson honestly said.

"But look at them..."

Hearing Bob’s words, Richardson looked again seriously and saw that they were rapidly changing their positions.

Richardson’s Level was much higher than theirs, so he could clearly see their state.

Watching them climb onto the surrounding wall, move away from the gate of the territory, and adopt a very reasonable formation, with Mages who had strong burst abilities at the forefront, Archers on one side, and Mercenaries and Swordsmen on the other... Most importantly, they were equipped with complete sets of heat-resistant and other equipment; this configuration, coupled with choosing the right moment, might indeed give them a chance.

With this thought, Richardson paused.

Richardson’s pause didn’t escape Bob’s notice, his eyes brightened a bit, "Is there a chance? Then, Lord, could you possibly..."

"No! As a Territory Lord, I can only live and die with my Territory," Richardson said without hesitation.

"But only if your life remains could there be a chance to rise again."

"You know, that won’t happen. The chance to obtain a Lord Token is extremely rare. I was incredibly lucky to get one once, let alone hope for a second time. I have never heard of a Lord who received a Lord Token twice," Richardson shook his head, looked at Bob who was wholeheartedly loyal to him, and continued, "You should leave with them!"

"No, I want to stay by your side," Bob also spoke firmly, if the Lord would never abandon his territory, he would remain loyal to the Lord.

Looking at Bob’s determined eyes, Richardson sighed deeply, "As you wish!"

Bob immediately became happy, it was good enough to stay by the Lord’s side.

[The surrounding wall is being destroyed, defensive power down to fifty percent, Stone storage is insufficient, please repair quickly!]

[The surrounding wall is being destroyed, defensive power down to forty-two percent, Stone storage is insufficient, please repair quickly!]

[...]

Richardson watched the Stone and wood in his Warehouse being depleted, the defensive power of the surrounding wall rapidly falling, and he couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart.

Even though he had always known the fate of his territory, the thought of it actually being breached was unbearably painful.

A flash of hurt disappeared from his eyes, replaced by a resolute look.

The next moment, he ran to the battlefield with Bob.

But... it was too late!

The defending Professionals began to retreat step by step.

[The surrounding wall has been destroyed!]

[Territory War has failed, do you surrender?]

Listening to these two messages, faced with a crowd that suddenly flooded into the territory, Richardson unhesitatingly said, "No!"

After refusing to surrender, Richardson looked at the Professionals around him who were still prepared to resist and directly said, "If you find a chance, escape! This time, they will not spare us!"

The resisting Professionals were all stunned.

When they were attacked at Abo Duowei Village, they naturally protected their territory with all their hearts.

But now that they couldn’t hold on, wasn’t it just acknowledging defeat and losing resources?

Even if they were captured, as Professionals, the new territory should treat them properly.

Isn’t that always the case?

Most of them thought this way, but some experienced Professionals’ faces changed.

Territory Wars according to the rules involved withdrawing part of the territory’s resources and pillaging enough population within a certain limit, but there was another type where it involved occupying the entire territory, plundering all of a territory’s resources and population to expand their own territory.
