Chapter 50: Three Thousand Armored Soldiers
Leaving the Drum Tower, Ling Mo had just walked out the Great Gate when he was surprised by the scene that appeared before him.
“Holy crap! What’s going on?”
Originally, there was only Ghost Lord in front of the Drum Tower Great Gate, but when Ling Mo walked out again, the area in front of the Drum Tower was filled with a dense crowd of people.
These people were all dead, mere empty shells wearing a set of Armor! Seeing their neat formation and rainbow-like Aura, it truly shocked Ling Mo.
“These guys don’t seem weak at all! What are they up to? Could they want to rob me of my Treasure?”
Ling Mo started hesitating, wondering if he should go out. Ghost Lord by the Great Gate remained unmoved, still standing rigidly there.
And those three thousand corpses, the moment they saw Ling Mo, suddenly knelt down in perfect unison, the sound of Armor friction ringing out, stirring the heart.
“What’s going on?”
Ling Mo was completely dumbfounded. Why did they kneel too?
“Could it be that I was an Emperor in my previous life? These things are my soldiers? I dug up my own grave? Damn, this is too outrageous…”
The more he thought about it, the stranger it felt. These three thousand Armored Soldiers seemed very respectful to Ling Mo, obeying his every word!
This completely stunned Ling Mo!
But that’s not right! This is a Different Realm. If they were related to Ling Mo, they should be on Earth!
He couldn’t figure it out more and more, but judging by their appearance, they probably wouldn’t harm him.
Therefore… Ling Mo walked out, flattered and surprised. Suddenly… with a snap, Ghost Lord’s thick Armor clanged as he knelt down too.
“Oh my god, this won’t do!”
Recalling the torment by Ghost Lord earlier, Ling Mo was instantly terrified. What was this play?
Could it be fattening the pig before slaughtering it? That way the meat would be more tender?
Ling Mo reached out to help him up, but he couldn’t budge Ghost Lord’s body at all. His Power was too immense, and that Armor couldn’t be damaged even by Ling Mo’s full-force strike.
Among these three thousand Armored Soldiers, Ghost Lord seemed to be the leader, all of them gazing at Ling Mo.
“Good grief, three thousand Armored Soldiers. Most of them are from Soul Sage to Soul Douluo level, with a large batch below Soul Sage.
With such a luxurious lineup, if they were all for my use, what would I have to fear from Spirit Hall and Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School?”
Thinking back to teasing Ning Rongrong in Suotuo City earlier, Ling Mo felt a bit scared.
Because he had been careless at the time and acted without guessing her identity! You know, this girl had protection before arriving at Shrek Academy.
By now, people from Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School were probably already hunting him down, right?
Originally, after leaving Shrek Academy, Ling Mo had been hesitating whether to go back. Now it seemed he didn’t need to worry about that.
With such a spectacle, did Ling Mo still need to fear them? Probably not. Just Ghost Lord alone should be able to handle those two from Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School.
“Damn! Three thousand Armored Soldiers at my command, give each one a Peacock Plume later, Buddha’s Fury Tang Lotus and such—wouldn’t that be Slaughter God, no god could block?”
Ling Mo was finding it harder and harder to stay calm. This Jing Jue Ancient City trip had completely turned his fortunes around.
Among this group of Armored Soldiers, the strongest was Ghost Lord, with unclear Strength, but Ling Mo could sense that the Deterrence he exuded was even more domineering than Tang Hao’s.
Besides him, there were several Titled Douluo-level among the three thousand Armored Soldiers. With this Foundation, Ling Mo seemed to no longer need to worry about threats from any Force, right?
Ghost Gate could be established. These three thousand Armored Soldiers would be Ling Mo’s first batch of enforcers!
“Are you willing to follow me?”
Ling Mo said, first confirming if they truly were willing.
Only the sound of neat metal clashing rang out on site, very loud.
They seemed unable to speak, but their actions constantly told Ling Mo what they meant.
“Good, in that case, starting today, Ghost Gate is officially established! You are all the first batch of Ghost Gate disciples… Finally, let me weakly say, although I have nothing to teach you…”
A walk in front of Ghost Gate! Even the King of Hell fears me by three points.
Though he didn’t know if the King of Hell really existed, it didn’t affect Ling Mo acting cool at all.
King of Hell, mind if I borrow a person?
King of Hell: I’m having a tough time…
Each of these three thousand Armored Soldiers had strong Strength. Ling Mo had observed carefully; the seven leading commanders were all Titled Douluo level.
As for Ghost Lord, the strongest, Ling Mo couldn’t even tell his limit! Just that greatsword of his was no ordinary item.
All the Treasure Artifacts in the entire Jing Jue Ancient City combined weren’t as powerful as his greatsword! With just this top-tier Combat Power, he had probably reached Limit Douluo level long ago, right?
Maybe even stronger…
Ling Mo had collected a lot of Strange Metal earlier, and inside the Small Tower, all sorts of Immortal Medicines, poisons, and such had appeared. Tang Sect Hidden Weapons refined from these would definitely be insanely powerful.
Then give each one a Peacock Plume or Buddha’s Fury Tang Lotus, plus their own Power—wouldn’t that be one-shotting a Titled Douluo each?
It was truly hard to imagine. With these Armored Soldiers, Ling Mo could already ignore threats from any Force.
After taking in these Armored Soldiers, Ling Mo stored them all in the Small Tower. For now, he had no base of his own, so he could only keep them inside the Small Tower.
As for Ghost Lord! His status was noble, so he’d keep him by his side—not only for Deterrence against others, but also for protection anytime.
Killing two birds with one stone!
“The Bronze Coffin’s Aura has disappeared! At the end of the Darkness lies infinite Power. With my current Strength, forcing my way in is obviously impossible…”
Exploring the endless sky, Ling Mo looked at a starry ancient path above the Ancient City.
Ling Mo didn’t know where this path led. He wanted to enter personally to experience it, but the immense Pressure from the starry sky pressed down so hard he couldn’t move forward.
So he had to give up!
What he didn’t know was that the Big Black Dog that sneaked up on him earlier, and Fatty! Had left via this path, riding the Bronze Coffin.
The other end of the starry ancient path seemed to connect to another World.
“Let’s go!”
After confirming Jing Jue Ancient City had no more exploration value, Ling Mo took Ghost Lord and left Jing Jue Ancient City.
Returning to that cave entrance, he suddenly discovered that the passage he dug on the way in had been buried.
He didn’t know which bastard wanted to bury him in the Ancient City!
Helpless, Ling Mo had to dig a new pit, digging for a full half day before opening a passage back to the surface.
“Star Dou Great Forest?”
Seeing the Soul Beasts frantically darting past before him, Ling Mo immediately determined this was Star Dou Great Forest.
And these panicked fleeing Soul Beasts seemed to be scared by some Hegemon.
“Hm! Titan Giant Ape?”
Ling Mo suddenly spotted on the other side of the mountain a colossal giant ape walking through the Gorge, each step shaking the earth.
It had come out from the Lake of Life, hurrying along as if rushing to meet someone.
“Could it have sensed Xiao Wu’s Aura? Has Xiao San and the others already arrived at Star Dou Great Forest?”
Ling Mo instantly deduced the next plot!
From the looks of it, poor Zhao Wuji was about to get beaten again. Truly the most pitiful person in Douluo.
Beaten this way and that, all by Tang San’s family!
Sigh, so pitiful…
