Reborn: Super God of War Chapter 178

“What? Say it again?”

City of Light City Leader's Mansion, Caesar the Great punched on the table severely, his weak body not only did not deal any damage to the table but instead the tremor caused pain in his arm . He roared at Lin Jie angrily, “My wife is in the hands of those darn bandits?”

Lin Jie expressionlessly put down the blackmail letter in his hand and said calmly, “Yes . The Qifeng Mountain bandits have requested for you to bring 1,000 gold coins to go ransom her, you must go personally, or else…”

Caesar clenched his fist, gritted his teeth, and said, “Damn bastards! Damn bastards!”

Caesar the Great was the trashiest of all the City Leaders, the most licentious and useless City Leader . If one were to mention his only good point, that would be his devoted love to his wife .

“Layard, help me prepare 1,000 gold coins . ” Caesar the Great gradually calmed down and looked at Lin Jie cautiously . Then, he said, “Lock down the City Leader's Mansion!”

“Yes!”

A team of patrolling soldiers walked towards Lin Jie and said sternly, “Lord Viscount, please leave!”

Caesar the Great was about to place the City Leader's Seal .

To a city, the most important item was, of course, the City Leader's Seal! Only by obtaining the City Leader's Seal could one use the rights of the City Leader . If a player wanted to control a city, they must obtain the City Leader's Seal . Normally, the City Leader would hide the City Leader's Seal in some hidden place, or bring it along with him .

However, everything also had exceptions, Caesar the Great was one of the weirdos: His City Leader's Seal was within his body . In other words, if one wanted to obtain his City Leader's Seal, then they'd either have to kill him or make him take it out willingly . Meanwhile, unless that happened a city siege, the City Leader would be in invincible state after activating the God Protection in dangerous situations .

A city must have a City Leader . If Caesar the Great left the City of Light for over 30 seconds, to prevent the chaos of order, the system would immediately spawn a new Caesar the Great . That new City Leader was different from how Lin Jie was reborn, he would not have the memory of coming in contact with players . However, he would continue to carry out the missions the system designated . Meanwhile, the original Caesar the Great would become a passerby NPC, something like a villager .

Caesar the Great knew this point deeply, but to save his wife, he could only place the City Leader's Seal in the City Leader's Mansion! Only by doing that could the city function normally and not respawn a second City Leader .

Actually similar to that matter, Caesar the Great had already done it many times . Under the pretense of “dressing as a commoner to mingle among people,” but as a matter of fact, he was frequenting the house of courtesans… Every time, he would bring back a face of comfort and satisfaction, returning safely . Therefore, he was quite at ease going out this time .

Lin Jie silently waited beside the City Leader's Mansion . After 10 minutes, a normal-looking commoner-like NPC walked out from within and disappeared at the turn of the road, almost not attracting anyone's attention .

In the sky, the Silver-Feathered Eagle's agile eyes immediately followed after the City Leader . After discovering that the NPC was walking towards the city gate, Lin Jie instantly confirmed his identity: City of Light City Leader!

Screech—

The Silver-Feathered Eagle suddenly descended and hovered around the City Leader . He wore a body of long black robe made of brocade, the material was quite rare, one had to observe from a close distance to differentiate it .

“Scram!” The City Leader was angered, he raised his fist and punched towards the Silver-Feathered Eagle, but it easily dodged the punch .

“It should be Ni Silk Black Robe . ” Lin Jie determined from Spirit Vision . Black robes were also split into many different types, but since its effects were all to hide one's identity, no idiot would be a showoff and buy a 2 gold coins Ni Silk Black Robe instead of the 10 bronze coins black robe .

Lin Jie quickly bought a Ni Silk Dark Robe and wore it . He sized up his body and took out the Orb of Deception . Under the shine of the light rays, his slightly tender and delicate face instantly became dispirited and old . If there was someone beside, then they would be astonished to discover: Wasn't that the City Leader?

Using the robe to cover his face, Lin Jie probingly walked towards the City Leader's Mansion .

The guard instantly shouted loudly, “Scram!”

Due to the attribute restrictions of the Orb of Deception, Lin Jie did not dare to carelessly speak, he could only silently be pretentious, praying in his heart that some knowing NPC would come .

[Orb of Deception] (Dark Gold)

Attributes: None .

Additional effect: Allows you to transform into a copy of any living creature . Unable to use skills and items during transformation . Pay attention to your actions, maintain it, inappropriate actions and language will expose you 1  .

Lin Jie continued to put up a front, his eyes under the black robe mockingly sized up that guard, and he just stood there very calmly .

“Can't you hear what I'm saying? Scram!” The guard was about to pull out his weapon when a patrol leader rushed there . Seeing Lin Jie's attire, his body trembled, and he said respectfully, “Lord City Leader, you're back so fast?”

The guard was shocked, he hurriedly knelt down on one knee and trembled as he said, “Welcome the return of the City Leader!” It was no wonder that poor guard could not recognize the “City Leader” currently . Since Lin Jie had already used his robe to cover his face, then most probably only some NPCs who knew the situation would recognize that that was the “City Leader . ” For example, the patrol leader…

Lin Jie heavily sneered but did not dare to speak . Then, he entered the City Leader's Mansion . His eyes swept the surroundings, there were definitely many guards protecting the City Leader's Seal . Currently, huge numbers of patrolling guards were patrolling outside the City Leader's bedroom .

The bedroom was the private place of the City Leader, it was impossible for any guards to be inside . The City Leader that was dedicated had to play with beautiful ladies every day; naturally, he would not want for his subordinate to be beside him looking .

Lin Jie covered himself in a black robe and walked through the crowd . He seemed to be calm and collected on the surface, but his heart was beating faster and faster! He was pretending to be the City Leader, if he was seen through, not only his official position would directly be demoted to the bottom, he would even be banished from the City of Light! By then, all of his hard work would have been for naught .

Of the two strongest of the guards, one was the head Civil Official, Kismudan, a super-strong Buff-type NPC and only a step away from being a hero . In the city siege, just a casual wave of his hand and epic spells like Great Light, Great Blessing, and Great Enrage would be cast . As long as there were soldiers that could fight, his battle powers would be over the rood .

The other person was the Military General, Layard . Caesar the Great may be the trashiest City Leader, but he had the general that could be called the most powerful and strongest! Layard's skill was no different from the other cities' Military General, which was unlimited summoning of soldiers . His strength lied in his special skill: Summoning Disciple! Layard's disciple was the Hunter Leader Mena from the City of Elves, she had the same attributes as him and the same skills .

If Layard summoned Mena and cooperated with the Civil Official, the saying three soldiers would be enough to fend off ten thousands of enemies wouldapply 2 !

Wanting to assault the City Leader's Mansion? Two words: Wishful thinking!

When Lin Jie entered the crowd, he held his breath, the more crucial the moment, the more he could not be anxious! Or else he might reveal a slip-up!

“Stop!” Layard suddenly shouted, the many guards were shocked, they then reacted one after the other and tens of eyes sized up Lin Jie .

Lin Jie tried his best to calm himself down, his eyes were cold . He gradually pushed open the big door towards the bedroom .

Layard seemed to want to go up and stop Lin Jie, but he could not confirm his judgment . Thus, in the end, he still did not make a move .

Creak-

As the big door of the bedroom closed, Lin Jie heaved a huge sigh of relief . He suddenly discovered that the City Leader's Seal was floating in the air .

Ding~

—'You received the City Leader's Seal! Due to the fact that the City of Light City Leader is not in the city, you will temporarily obtain part of the rights of a City Leader!'

[City Leader's Seal] (Warring Item) (Sealed State)

Requires: Level 0

When you are in City of Light, your Health Points are increased by 3,000, Mana Points by 3,000, all stats are increased by 400 points, skills consumption and cooldown are decreased by 50% .

Additional effect: City Leaders Seal, you can teleport to any place within City of Light at will, cooldown time 3 seconds . (Sealed)

Additional effect: Summon soldiers, you can order the City of Light guards to fight for you, they cannot be further than 100 yards from City of Light . Every 10 seconds, the guards fighting for you will have a 25% increase in attributes, can be stacked four times . (Sealed)

Additional effect: Protection, when you receive damage within City of Light, mid-level Guardian Knights will be summoned to fight for you . When you willingly use this skill, then 10 to 30 mid-level Guardian Knights will be summoned to battle for you . (Sealed)

Additional effect: The rights of a City Leader .

That was the City Leader's Seal, the person in possession of it would be like a duck in water, lording over others! That was also the reason why the difficulty of obtaining a city was so high . The Health Points of a City Leader were at least a few tens of millions and above; every time the City Leader received damage, he would passively summon guards, who knew how much effort would be needed to just kill the City Leader! Also, he had unlimited teleportation, that kind of cheating skill, only increased the difficulty even more .

Since Lin Jie was a fake, the City Leader's attributes would not entirely be stacked onto him . If the real City Leader held the City Leader's Seal, then the attributes enhanced would not be that simple, but it would be added according to percentage! To Lin Jie, the most important meaning and effect were that he could use the City Leader's rights! Such as control over the army…

Even so, at that instant which he grasped the City Leader's Seal, a surge of enormous power spread from within his four limbs, body, and bones . His attribute values rose rapidly!

His attack power had broken through 845-1,020, his Health Points over 5,000 points, and his defense even reached 930 points—defense power of near 1,000! Such stat points were equal to activating Death Rage and Undefeated Anger all the time . Currently, there was no one who could take the power of Lin Jie's slash, and his enemies were unable to deal any damage to him! Even if it was a hundred people team, they would only face defeat!

Lin Jie held the City Leader's Seal, and the schematic diagram of the guards in the surroundings of the City Leader's Mansion instantly appeared before him . All of the guards were displayed as dark green, which represented that they could be controlled by Lin Jie .

The first thing after obtaining the City Leader's rights was: to gather all the 300 guards that were distributed all around the City Leader's Mansion and have them block the door!

In the next instant, Lin Jie started to order Layard to summon Dynasty Knights! Dynasty Knights were level 70 elites! According to the skill mechanism, the City Leader's Health Points must be lower than 10% in order to summon them, but it was different now!

One had to do what the City Leader wanted one to do!

Layard obeyed the orders and immediately started summoning Dynasty Knights! The confused Dynasty Knights wearing dark yellow-colored armor were summoned, and they surrounded the City Leader's Mansion so tightly they were packed like sardines .

Suddenly, the symbol of one of the Military General Layard's skills flickered once .

“Summon! Elf Hunter Mena!”

Lin Jie was surprised as he used his City Leader's Seal to command .

Having the City Leader's Seal, Lin Jie could observe every movement within the City Leader's Mansion . He could only see a sexy Elf beauty, who only used leaves to cover her important parts, appear, respectfully bowing to Layard .

[Hunter Leader Mena]: Sub-Legendary, Health Points: 8,000,000!

Under the command of Lin Jie, she waved her hand and summoned 10 Panther Sentinels . They were ranged-type battle soldiers, their attacks were exceptionally high and had damage penetration characteristics—they were high-level Warriors of the Elf race!

Civil Official Kismudan also simultaneously opened his hands and started to enhance all kinds of buffs for the surrounding battle units such as War Encouragement, Courage Encouragement, and Morale Encouragement . In the end, he also scattered a Great Enrage spell . Everyone started to emit a blood-red hue, as if they were wild beasts that had been starved for a few days, ready to devour people at a moment's notice!

Night gradually befell City of Light . Even the guards that were as if made of steel could not help but feel tired . It was time for them to change shifts .

At this moment!

Baili Xuanyuan who had been staying near the city gate all the while crushed the City Leader Token with his hands! The city siege had commenced!

—System Announcement: Baili Xuanyuan has launched a City Siege towards City of Light! City of Light will enter war mode, the Teleportation Portal will be closed, the shops will be closed!

“Kill!” ordered Baili Xuanyuan . His ten-thousand-army that had already been lying in ambush outside the city was like a mountain, crazily charging forward . The Fireballs in the sky were like a smashing meteor shower—four level 60 Elite City Gate Guards, who had yet to react, were directly smashed to death by the concentrated rain of fireballs!

“Target, City Leader's Mansion! Just this one chance, either we win, or die trying!”

Boom—

In the blink of an eye, the huge army, which was like locusts crossing, had broken through the city gate, where the strength of the guards was the weakest!

Mages flung Fireballs at will everywhere and lit up all the buildings . The Hunters' arrows were shot randomly everywhere without any worries, instantly killing innocent NPCs and passerby players!

The evil score would not be counted in City Siege Mode!

Killing and robbery at one's will! That was one of the classic benefits of City Siege!

The patrolling guards were just respawned currently; thus, the originally imposing guards were simply wiped out effortlessly in front of the huge army! Tens of thousands from the alliance army instantly split into three groups—Kingdom of Glory to the left, Dark-Robed Knights to the right, while the Mage Heavens headed straight front all the way, advancing towards the City Leader's Mansion!

They must wipe out everyone in the City Leader's Mansion at once before the civil and military officials showed their might!

Boom—

The gate of the City Leader's Mansion was easily blasted open, the 300 guards that were spawned in the City Leader's Mansion instantly turned pale from shock!

“Use Restricted Curses and smash everything!” Baili Xuanyuan raised his longsword high up, and the originally pitch-black sky suddenly changed in color! The pure white round moon was even dyed in a layer of scorching bright red!
