Kill without mercy, meaning that if there were any arrests, they could be killed on the spot.
This was an extensive and profound ancient saying, even if it was in the language of this world, could also clearly and succinctly explain Kant’s true thoughts. Especially his current intention of the remaining Crimson Sect on Mountain of Death!
For those soldiers who had already understood Kant’s meaning, the following battle was very simple.
It was just a ma.s.sacre!
A ma.s.sacre of a city!
No one expressed any objection to this.
Because, they had experienced even more ruthless situations in the past.
Even the Continent of Caradia, which was slightly less intense than other worlds, would wipe out villages and towns, destroy castles and military fortresses when fighting between countries. It was simply a common occurrence.
War was cruel to begin with. It was a h.e.l.l for the weak, a heaven for the strong, and the bloodiest law of the forest!
Just like now.
The strong were Kant and his troops.
Then, the Crimson Sect, which was the weak, could only bear the consequences of defeat.
And the consequence of this was a b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre. Kant’s troops slaughtered all the members of the Crimson Sect, leaving no survivors!
The followers of the Crimson Sect wanted to surrender and beg for mercy.
But what awaited them was not forgiveness, it was a sharp saber or longsword!
The desert bandits who were the first to rush up had already jumped off their warhorse and rushed up the stairs with scimitars in their hands. Using their bandit instincts, they began to search the locations of various buildings.
A large number of precious utensils were put into sacks. Whether they were silver or gold, they were all their spoils of war.
No one dared to truly obstruct them.
Because the believers who dared to obstruct them had all been chopped to death.
Gibran had gathered all the fanatics who could go down the mountain. They were all armed and fought with Kant’s troops.
The ones left behind were all shallow believers. They were simply asked to stay behind to guard their homes or to witness the might of a supreme existence. They were truly transformed into fanatics who could be used in the future.
But no one expected that Gibran’s plan to fail. He never thought that Kant’s strength was so powerful.
It wasn’t just the half-demon army that all died, even the incarnation of the demon lord had lost.
The invincible incarnation that he personally formed was easily defeated by Kant and his army.
What was even more unexpected was that the demon lord chose to self-destruct without hesitation. It didn’t even care about the safety of the most devout believer. It even self-exploded to defeat Kant.
However, he still miscalculated and failed. Kant did not suffer a great loss from its self-destruction.
Or rather, there were not many casualties at all.
What was left behind was those soldiers who were arrogant with anger and victory.
They charged up Mountain of Death and began their cruel plunder and slaughter. In the shortest amount of time, these believers of the Crimson Sect experienced what real h.e.l.l was!
The ma.s.sacre was ongoing. The believers cried and fled, but they couldn’t get far because Kant’s troops were everywhere.
The desert bandits were only the first to come up.
Behind them, the Rhodok Footmen came up. They searched the rooms one by one meticulously. They didn’t care about the treasures at all. Instead, they resolutely carried out Kant’s will and killed the believers, leaving no survivors!
The mountain of death penalty was famous for hanging dozens of n.o.ble families on the peak of the mountain.
Now, Kant’s Ma.s.sacre had made this mountain even more famous.
The cruel ma.s.sacre had never appeared in the Dukedom of Leo. Now, Kant had spread throughout the entire mountain with the threat of death. He had cut the throats of any believers who appeared in front of him and were captured.
The mountain of death penalty deserved its name. Many people were slaughtered on this mountain!
The ma.s.sacre continued for nearly half a day.
Kant did not go up the mountain.
Instead, he set up a temporary tent at the foot of the mountain.
The various exquisite crafts and silver coins found in the temple of the Crimson Sect on the mountain of death penalty had been transported here, guarded by the 300 Rhodok Sergeants.
Of course, there were also all kinds of delicious ingredients, spices, and salt.
It could be seen how extravagant the higher-ups of the Crimson Sect were.
There was nothing they could do.
The Crimson Sect had already infiltrated the East County.
The Mountain of Death here was just the headquarters. In fact, although the n.o.bles in the East County were not believers of Crimson Sect, they had more or less become the partners of the Crimson Sect.
The Crimson Sect had also plundered a large amount of wealth due to their interests.
For example, the spices and table salt here were proof of this.
The spices came from the merchants of the Resniston River, while the table salt came from the Nahrin Desert of Kant.
Without their own trade caravan and the support of the n.o.bles, perhaps the Crimson Sect would not have been able to develop to its current stage. After all, Kant knew very well that although the newly revived h.e.l.l Lord was powerful, it was not invincible in terms of manpower. In fact, an elite army could easily wipe it out.
This was not a difficult matter for the East County. However, the reason why the Crimson Sect and the demon were able to develop to such a powerful state could not be separated from the wrangling of the n.o.ble families and their greed for benefits.
They could not shake off the tail. In the end, the Crimson Sect grew to become the third largest force in the East County.
They were independent of the n.o.ble and lord.
In fact, they had even infiltrated the n.o.ble system.
They had made the lords lose their power and combined with the large number of n.o.ble families, they controlled most of the power in the East County
Looking at the port of the East County, even the city guards had believers of the Crimson Sect. If the Crimson Sect really wanted to do something, the entire East County would be in chaos.
The n.o.bles and lords had actually lost their ability to control everything.
However, it was not certain now.
The Crimson Sect had been easily annihilated by Kant’s troops on Mountain of Death.
This meant that Kant had already obtained his own place in the East County. Even in the North County, he could be said to have control over the entire plain from the Stone Pa.s.s to Mountain of Death.
If he were to take over the original land of Viscount Gibran, Avilis Castle, it became three locations which formed a triangle on map.
All the land in this triangle would be under Kant’s control!
Even if the n.o.ble families and Countess Agatha of the Eastern County had complaints in their hearts, they would not be able to say anything. After all, strength was the true reliance. Without their strength, they would not be able to contend against Kant!
Especially now, with Kant’s might of exterminating Mountain of Death, the East County could only tremble!
After all, it was here.
Kant was invincible!
