Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

2:00 in the morning.

Swish!!

The undead army swarmed to the city wall like a tidal wave.

Dwarfs offering stiff resistance did not necessarily die under swords. More often, they were pushed off the wall by the surging skeletons.

Once the wall was breached, the undead's offensive momentum was unstoppable.

In the blink of an eye, the dwarf camp was on the verge of defeat.

The dwarf wall, purported to be the most solid, was thoroughly breached.

The undead army poured into the city.

One after another, city gates were flung open as more of the undead rushed in.

With the dwarfs who fought fiercely, bloody street battles ensued.

However, the number of the undead was overwhelming, flooding into the lanes like a spate.

Instantly, all defenses were toppled, pushing the dwarfs towards the city center.

Retreating and killing until they penetrated the royal palace, the city gradually fell silent.

Low sobbing and agonized moaning echoed in every corner of the city.

At the same time!

Dong Jiayue sent dwarfs into the city.

Roaming the city alleys, they shouted, "Don't fight back. As long as you don't resist, you will be safe."

Swish! Thud!!

From a second-floor window, a bullet shot towards the shouting dwarf.

The dwarf fell from his horse, fumbling for his head.

His head was fine, but when he brushed his hand against something, half an ear appeared in his palm.

The dwarf swallowed, feelings of anger rising in his heart.

"Charge in, kill the people on the second floor, quickly."

Skeletons entered the room, killing the dwarf snipers.

Gray Iron City gradually fell silent.

The city's streets and alleys crawled with undead skeletons, standing still on the streets like sculptures.

Occasionally, dwarfs would stroll through, loudly proclaiming that those who surrender would not be killed.

...

Inside the palace.

Dong Jiayue sat on a luxurious throne, coldly looking at the dwarf minister brought before her.

Bellerga, previously a royal successor, gave clear advice on who the upper echelon was.

Only then did the dwarfs learn of Bellerga's presence in the Undead Clan.

"How are the storage and data archives faring?" Dong Jiayue asked, looking grim.

These dwarfs are truly hard-hearted.

Upon entering, she saw two places aflame.

Dong Jiayue immediately ordered a fire rescue, but she doubted much could be salvaged considering the intensity of the flames.

A human guard whispered a report: "My lord, they're still extinguishing the fire. Mainly the data and equipment rooms have been hit. We can confirm the goods and grains warehouses are safe."

Upon hearing this, Dong Jiayue breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully the granary is safe.

Otherwise, occupying Gray Iron City this winter would have meant those who surrendered would be a burden.

It would either mean killing people, to save on resources, or feeding these people through the winter.

Now there's no problem, and one less worry for her.

"Ok, assign more people to extinguish the fire. We must quell the flames tonight," Dong Jiayue continued to order.

"Understood, my lord."

Once the soldier left, Dong Jiayue's gaze fell back on the dwarfs kneeling before her.

A few of them were even heroes. They had all been part of the dwarf's upper ranks.

She coldly said, "When you began your pillage of the transmigrators, you instigated this war. At that time, you were in a superior position and didn't care about the transmigrators' fate. Now the tables have turned. If you want to blame anything, blame your own greed and your King Rune, who lead you astray."

Kneeling on the ground, the dwarfs hung their heads in silence.

Not wanting to waste words with them, Dong Jiayue ordered, "Lock them all up in a dungeon. Kill anyone who attempts to make outside contact."

"Yes, my lord."

The dwarf prisoners were escorted out.

Dong Jiayue continued, "Bellerga, you know this place well. Take people and immediately take over the remaining army. We can't afford them stirring up trouble."

"Yes."

Once Bellerga left, Dong Jiayue, having finished her orders, opened the Book of Lords and dispatched a message to Fang Hao.

...

The next day, early morning.

After Fang Hao finished dressing and making his toilet, with Eira and Little White's help, he donned his noble attire.

Wearing a straight and elegant suit, he appeared more dignified and noble.

Last night, he received a message from Dong Jiayue.

She had taken Gray Iron City.

Naturally, he was thrilled at the news.

Today, as the leader, he would go to Gray Iron City to take possession of the city and reward his subordinates.

Once the final button was in place.

The two women beamed with satisfaction.

"You look so handsome," Little White complimented.

Fang Hao lightly pinched her small face and strode out of the room.

Inside the first floor lobby.

Demitrija and Anjia had been waiting for a while.

Fang Hao checked the time: 7:27.

He immediately initiated the teleportation curtain heading to Gray Iron City.

The three of them stepped into the curtain.

Upon opening their eyes, they arrived within a lavish palace.

Underneath their feet was a fancy, soft carpet. The walls were made of glossy stone that shone brightly.

Even the curtains on the windows could be discerned as expensive silk.

The dwarfs, are they rich or not, really?

When making reparations, they were stingy. But looking at this palace, it's much more luxurious than his own.

There was a sense of modern decorative aesthetic.

"Lord."

The moment Fang Hao appeared, everyone present bowed.

Even Dong Jiayue, who usually affectionately called him Brother Hao, bowed at this moment.
