Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Assassin InvasionFaced with these two territories, of course, it was most cost-effective to destroy them immediately. Besides, Rosen noticed that both territories’ resource points were gold mines, which belonged to his Beastman Territory.

    After crushing these two territories, Rosen had the workers excavate the gold mines.

    Seeing Rosen’s workers heading to Zone 10, Ye Yuxuan also dispatched enough workers to follow.

    Now Rosen had 13 gold mines under his control. Even if he did nothing, he could upgrade to a Level 4 territory soon, likely in less than a week.

    Before he came to the competition, his territory was just a Level 4 main city.

    In reality, it would take a month to develop to Level 4, but in the Lord Dominance Competition, the dense resource points made development as fast as a rocket.

    "Hey boss, can I also tap into your gold mine?" With three gold mines, Ye Yuxuan said greedily.

    "Sure, but your workers might come under attack from the defense towers."

    Rosen’s next words made her pout and mumble, "Stingy."

    Rosen then patted her head and said, "Since we’re allies, I won’t shortchange you. I’ve already captured nine gold mines earlier on. There are no guard towers there, so you can send workers to mine."

    Allowing Ye Yuxuan to mine did not affect his own mining speed, and having a strong ally was a form of protection.

    Ye Yuxuan, hearing this, brightened up and immediately, under Rosen’s guidance, sent workers over.

    Rosen then returned to his territory and upgraded to a Hero Altar.

    At Level 3, one can summon a hero, and Rosen lacked no combat power, so the summoned hero was the Beastman Prophet.

    When the Beastman Prophet appeared, Rosen asked him, "Can you sense if there are strong enemies in the unopened air wall that could affect my territory?"

    The Beastman Prophet closed his eyes, then quickly snapped them open with a grim face, saying, "It’s terrifying, it’s the Angel Legion! So many angels, at least two thousand of them. I can see numerous Level 3 barracks, and even Level 4 barracks have been upgraded. This lord has twenty gold mines under command and is still expanding and attacking this way. Just one air wall separates us, and then we’ll be threatened!"

    Listening to the Beastman Prophet saying as if the sky were falling, Rosen understood and said helplessly, "Isn’t it just Tang Xichen, an ally, what’s there to fear?"

    However, the Prophet’s prediction also provided Rosen with Tang Xichen’s location. She must have been actively making her way over here seeing that Rosen hadn’t sought her out.

    It wasn’t necessarily that Tang Xichen wanted to seek protection. After all, as more air walls opened, the possibility of encountering formidable lords increased. If several evenly matched adversaries formed around her, they would likely attack her territory first without saying a word.

    Finding an ally was an unavoidable decision, and the only trustworthy ally left was Rosen. She couldn’t trust anyone else yet.

    "Can you predict how soon she’ll reach us?" Rosen asked the Beastman Prophet.

    "Her situation appears to be dangerous. I only saw the strength of her army earlier, but overlooked her opponent," the Beastman Prophet said seriously.

    "Her opponent has a very powerful piece of equipment, I saw that lord use the equipment to kill her!"

    The Beastman Prophet’s subsequent words surprised Rosen.

    "Even though Xichen’s attributes are suppressed to the same level, she shouldn’t be so easily eliminated, right?"

    "This isn’t elimination, it’s death. I can sense that the equipment has the power to ignore resurrection rules. Once hit, you’re done for!"

    The Beastman Prophet’s words changed Rosen’s expression.

    "Are you suggesting that there’s equipment capable of countering the competition rules?!"

    The Beastman Prophet shook his head, knowing no more details.

    "Where is that lord with the powerful equipment?" Rosen asked again.

    After discussing with the Beastman Prophet, Rosen learned the details. The lord’s territory was just behind an air wall in the surrounding area.

    And there were three lords there, allied together, who had already opened the air wall in advance to meet up. The air wall surrounding those three almost opened halfway, and it just connected with Tang Xichen’s area, so for the past two days, those three lords had been clashing with Tang Xichen’s troops.

    Because Tang’s army was so large, even combined, the three lords were not opponents, so they haven’t launched a large-scale attack.

    But if the three lords’ armies were allowed to develop, Tang Xichen would eventually be overrun. Hence, she’s been more anxious these two days, facing the biggest challenge since joining the Lord Dominance Competition.

    Originally, those three lords also wanted to open the air wall closer to Rosen’s side to seize resource points, but after exploration, they found several resource points had been occupied, suspecting a colossal entity nearby and dared not make a move, avoiding a double-sided attack.

    The colossal entity they discovered, naturally, was Rosen.

    "So in your foreseen future, Tang Xichen is killed and unable to be resurrected?" Rosen asked again, seriously.

    The Beastman Prophet nodded again.

    He didn’t believe his future prediction would be wrong.

    Seeing the Beastman Prophet’s response, Rosen clenched his fist. He wasn’t sure if the Prophet’s prediction was absolutely accurate, but he couldn’t allow Tang Xichen to be killed.

    Additionally, he developed suspicions about those three unknown lords.

    Why could those three lords possess equipment capable of truly killing a lord?

    And within the competition rules, capable of countering the resurrection rule?

    What could their identities be?

    Could they be foreign forces aiming to kill Tang Xichen?

    As soon as this thought emerged, Rosen immediately understood.

    Outside the arena, Tang Xichen had a duplicate of Patriarch Tang’s protecting her, making it impossible for foreign forces to succeed. But in this supposedly absolutely safe competition site, nobody would have thought that assassins had already infiltrated!

    Rosen’s face turned completely serious as he contemplated how to thwart the foreign assassins’ goal and save Tang Xichen!

    "In your foresaw future, did I survive?" Rosen asked.

    The Beastman Prophet closed his eyes again, and when he opened them, he nodded, "My lord, you not only survived, but also won second place in the Lord Dominance Competition singles match."

    With the Prophet’s prediction, Rosen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

    This means, without a doubt, the first place would be Tang Xichen, or rather, he should actively cooperate to let Tang Xichen achieve first place.

    This was also the task given by the Tang Family when he joined the competition this time. sea??h thё novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    As for prizes, the Tang Family could offer more; what he wanted was just a promise from Patriarch Tang.

    Besides that, it was also a repayment for the assistance Tang Xichen gave to his father.

    "Since I won’t die nor be eliminated, what’s there to fear?"

    "Foreign assassins, huh, daring to invade the competition field. Everyone’s power level is being suppressed to the same level, you’re just asking for trouble!"
