Mighty Lord

Chapter 1145: Chapter 453: Recapture Lost Territory

Just as the Monsters had thought, under normal circumstances, Zhou Tian wouldn’t need to pay them any mind. With his strength, if those Monsters dared to show themselves before him, then all Zhou Tian would need to do is launch a few casual attacks to kill them.

However, once those Monsters began engaging in guerrilla warfare with him, cleaning them up became much more troublesome for Zhou Tian.

Zhou Tian’s strength at that moment was indeed much stronger compared to those Emperor-level bosses. Almost certainly, if Zhou Tian marked those Monsters, a few casual attacks would suffice to finish them off. Yet, if those Monsters didn’t appear openly, then no matter how strong Zhou Tian was, he couldn’t just bomb their entire Territory in one go!

Thus, the problem arose at that time.

If Zhou Tian couldn’t bomb the Monsters’ entire Territory, then those Monsters hostile to Zhou Tian could naturally find a safe place to hide at that time.

Given the situation, even though Zhou Tian was on his own, continuously searching wouldn’t guarantee that he could find all those hidden Monsters. As soon as Zhou Tian arrived, the Monsters would flee; as soon as he left, they would come out and reclaim the lost territory. Under such circumstances, although Zhou Tian’s strength made annexing the Monsters’ Territory no problem at all, the time required definitely exceeded Zhou Tian’s expectations.

The last thing Zhou Tian was lacking now was time. If he were to waste too much time annexing a territory, that would not bode well for him. However, ignoring those Monsters wasn’t an option either, as the news about his area would spread soon. If other Monsters saw that just by doing so, Zhou Tian was rendered helpless, then likely all the Monsters would display the same reaction, and when that time came, the situation would undoubtedly become quite unfavorable for Zhou Tian.

Therefore, since those Monsters had already made their move, Zhou Tian had no choice but to find a way to cope, no matter what. He didn’t need to drastically affect the Monsters, but if there was an opportunity, it was still best for Zhou Tian to take over their territories, to prevent the situation from becoming increasingly disadvantageous to him later on.

Although he was frustrated, Zhou Tian’s actions in taking down the Monster Territories did not slow down.

With such a thought in mind, Zhou Tian decisively launched a series of actions at that time.

Were those Monsters contending with him in that way? Alright, Zhou Tian admitted their method was indeed effective; given the current situation, it was indeed difficult for Zhou Tian to seize all the Monsters. But if they thought Zhou Tian would just concede, they were being too naive.

Faced with that situation, Zhou Tian admitted he had no way to break it, but that didn’t mean he did nothing at that time. Upon discovering the Monsters’ actions, when he confronted them again, he completely took ruthless actions against them then.

If before, all of Zhou Tian’s actions were aimed at conquering more territories without seriously harming the Monsters, after discovering their maneuvers, because he was provoked, Zhou Tian suppressed any counterattacks from the Monsters within the territories he occupied, not letting any captured Monster die easily. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

After tormenting a group of Monsters, then subduing another group through various tactics, gradually the second Monster Territory he targeted was also seized by those methods.

Although the difficulty of the second strike had increased significantly, in the end, no matter what, Zhou Tian, with his abilities, still conquered that territory at that time. From that perspective, no matter what Zhou Tian encountered during that action, from the result perspective, he had achieved his strategic purpose.

However, although Zhou Tian had successfully acquired a large piece of territory at that time, greatly alleviating the predicament of being besieged by over a dozen large forces, as Zhou Tian counterattacked, when he pushed things to that level, fear arose in the hearts of both Monsters and NPCs.

Why would those Monsters and NPCs band together to deal with Zhou Tian?

All other reasons were mere excuses; the real reason for their significant reaction was just one—they clearly understood that if Zhou Tian upgraded to a Human Emperor and secured his footing, he would not spare them. Also, due to concerns about Zhou Tian taking action against them later, those forces united to take action against Zhou Tian.

Given the situation at that time, Zhou Tian had already made those forces wary. Under those circumstances, Zhou Tian also revealed his ruthless side; those forces that knew enduring Zhou Tian’s retaliation was inevitable, now seeing Zhou Tian’s tactics, driven by fear, naturally endeavored greatly to eliminate Zhou Tian.
