Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard - Chapter 15

Chapter 15: Eliminating the Bandit Camp

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zong Shen would not have any soft-hearted thoughts towards these bandits.

To him, these bandits were simply wild monsters.

He could see this very clearly.

Gently, he patted the old traveling horse on the head.

The duo advanced once more.

All the way until they arrived outside this bandit camp.

At this moment, those bandits stood up one after another and looked over with cruel and numb gazes.

Zong Shen swept his gaze over.

[Fallen Bandit LV3]

[Race: Human]

[Cleave Damage: 13 ~ 19]

[Health Points: 115]

[Armor: 5]

[Skill: None]

The attributes of these bandits were almost all similar.

There was only one of them, a bandit wearing leather armor, holding a broken blade with a small cut on it, who was a bit more powerful.

[Fallen Bandit Head LV5]

[Race: Human]

[Cleave Damage: 19 ~ 23]

[Health Points: 150]

[Armor: 16]

[Skill: Random Slash (For a short period of time, aim at the target and slash 2 ~ 3 times)]

Apart from this leader who was still rather strong, the other bandits’ strengths were all extremely weak.

Luna was right.

Their capability was not worth mentioning.

When Zong Shen and Luna arrived at the camp, they seemed to have activated the vigilance of these bandits.

They all stood up and walked towards Zong Shen without saying a word.

“Go, Luna!”

Zong Shen had already taken out his kite-shaped shield and one-handed sword.

The sword pointed straight at these bandits!

Luna received Zong Shen’s order.

The black panther under her leapt up, directly crossing several meters of distance, landing in front of the bandit.

She threw out the Three Arc Moon Blade!

She ejected the blade three times at the roving bandits.

Three splashes of blood appeared.

[-52]

[-26]

[-13]

Three gradually decreasing damage appeared above the heads of three different bandits.

This was the passive effect of the moonblade!

“Kill it!”

Those bandits didn’t feel any fear at all.

It seemed that they were truly humanoid monsters.

Instead, these bandits charged toward Luna.

“The massacre has begun!”

Luna’s lips curved into a cruel, charming smile.

She was not just a flower vase, but a hunter in the forest, a warrior who looked down on others. The roses that were irrigated from blood had to exist in the battlefield.

The black panther kept jumping up and changing its position.

Every time it landed on the ground, the Moon Blade would fly and blood would splatter everywhere.

It had a different kind of bloody romance.

After a few rounds of attacks.

Half of the bandits had been killed.

These bandits were also like the Grassland wolves that were killed by Zong Shen, turning into a ball of white light. The things that erupted from their bodies turned into shrunken cubes and landed on the ground. Their corpses instantly merged into the soil.

Zong Shen crossed his arms and silently watched the slaughter before him.

He did not attack.

There was no psychological discomfort.

Luna was enough to deal with these bandits.

The black panther was extremely agile, jumping around everywhere, those bandits didn’t even touch the corner of her clothes.

Together with the powerful ejecting Moon Blade, it was simply like killing chickens to deal with these bandits.

The black panther would occasionally bite.

Calm, elegant, powerful!

If Zong Shen were to face the female hunter now, he would definitely be defeated.

To him, these bandits were just some human shaped monsters, he didn’t feel any unreasonable guilt or pressure.

From the moment he landed in this world, he understood that the world had changed.

On the lower right side of his vision, system messages kept appearing.

[Your subordinate Dark Night Hunter killed the Fallen Bandit LV3, you will receive half of the EXP.]

…

[Experience Points obtained (50 × 0.5) = 25]

…

A white light flashed and Zong Shen leveled up!

Not long after, another white light flashed.

It seemed like he could get half of the experience points from killing the monsters under his command.

As expected, the strategy was right. Once the forces under him were formed.

By relying on his subordinates, he could level up while lying down.

Zong Shen stood where he was and pondered silently.

A dozen or so roving bandits, under the female hunter’s hands, couldn’t last more than three minutes in total.

Only the decadent bandit boss was able to last a bit longer.

However, Luna’s attacks only lasted for about 10 seconds before it turned into a streak of white light and disappeared.

Luna rode on her black panther to confirm that there were no other bandits hiding around before returning to Zong Shen.

“Lord, these bandits have all been eliminated!”

Zong Shen nodded.

“It’s been hard work for you, Luna!”

“Let us see the spoils of war these bandits left for us.”

Zong Shen rode his old traveling horse into the camp.

As soon as they entered the campsite, they were greeted with an overwhelming stench.

Apart from this, there was also a strong smell of blood.

He came to the bonfire.

The next moment, he saw a scene that made him nauseous.

Large patches of soil soaked in blood. There were also blood clots, residue, and flesh.

On a wooden pole nearby, there was a charred corpse.

These bandits actually ate people!

Zong Shen swallowed his saliva.

Even with his strong adaptability, he felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw this scene.

“Luna, burn this corpse.”

Zong Shen turned his head away from the bonfire and walked towards the few simple tents.

On the horseback, he used his single-handed sword to cut open the tent.

In the first tent, there were some resources scattered about chaotically. It was just that he didn’t know if they were collected by these bandits, or if they were plundered.

With a wave of his hand, Zong Shen collected all of them into his personal storage compartment.

[Obtained Wood x23]

[Obtained Stone x15]

[Hemp Rope ×3]

[Obtained Textile x15]

[Obtained Iron x10]

[Obtained Copper x3]

[Money x380]

[Elemental Crystal x1]

[Unknown dried meat ×23]

A batch of resources was immediately obtained.

The feudal lord’s personal storage unit was originally 20 units. Zong Shen had used a bit of [Item Management] to increase it by 6 units, so he had 26 units of personal storage.

Coupled with the 24 units in the [Kodo’s Hide Backpack], Zong Shen could carry a lot of resources.

In this batch of supplies, there was also [Unknown Dry Wind Meat]. Zong Shen could not tell what kind of meat it was.

However, it was best to use it as food for the black panther and the giant wolf.

Then, Zong Shen walked towards another tent.

This tent was also the largest one.

Just as he was about to slash open the tent.

Suddenly, the tent moved.

“There’s someone?”

Zong Shen hesitated.

“Sob sob sob!”

At this moment, a clear sound of choking came from the tent.

Zong Shen placed the kite-shaped shield in front of him.

It protected most of his body.

He raised his sword and slashed the top of the tent where the hemp rope was fixed!

The entire piece of white cloth was scattered down.

The situation inside the tent was completely exposed.

Zong Shen looked up from the edge of the kite-shaped shield and was instantly stunned.
