Chapter 277

So those were the areas that had been occupied.

They would then be directly divided up by other Saint-rank lords.

The condition for ruling an area is that no other lords can exist within that area.

Therefore, it is completely impossible for ordinary lords to station themselves on the territory of a Saint-rank lord.

As Saint-rank lords grow and develop, they will inevitably nibble away at the living space of ordinary lords.

This is an incompatibility issue.

So, in fact, the Saint-rank do not care about protecting ordinary lords.

They even hope that chaos of all kinds erupts everywhere in the world.

This way, they can use the banner of justice to launch punitive expeditions against ordinary lords.

And incidentally, inflict collateral damage on some innocent lords.

If their numbers drop to a certain level,

then they can directly nibble away that entire area.

Of course...

This sounds simple, but it is difficult to do.

Saint-rank lords do not wish to stir up public anger.

Otherwise, they too would face sanctions.

The other Saint-rank lords are also watching with predatory intent.

They expect to be able to conquer their own territories in the name of judgment, with full legitimacy.

Thus, between the Alliance, the Saint-rank lords, and the ordinary lords,

an unequal balance of power has still formed, creating mutual constraints.

Otherwise, given the gap in strength between Saint-rank and ordinary lords, there would long ago have been no path to survival for ordinary lords in this world.

【World Announcement: Lord — Lu Cang, successfully and perfectly occupied the area — Far East】

A world announcement popped up before all the lords.

This announcement signified the fall of the Far East area.

The entire Far East area had fallen into the hands of the Cursed Ones.

Of course, to be precise, it became the territory of Lu Cang alone.

【World Channel】

"The Far East has truly fallen."

"I didn't expect it to be so fast."

"In just ten short days, the Far East has already been swallowed by the Cursed Ones."

Lu Cang has only been in this world for ten days.

It is noon on the tenth day, the time of the Bado execution.

It is also the time when the Battle of Baier City began.

In the afternoon, Lu Cang snatched the BOSS.

This tenth day has not even fully passed.

And the Far East has already fallen.

The lords are already worrying about how terrifying Lu Cangjiang Society will become after some time.

"Speaking of which, did any lords from the Far East escape?"

"It seems one or two escaped from the Far East."

"They have friends outside, and they all have teleportation arrays."

"I heard that all the lords of the Far East were wiped out."

"They really showed no mercy."

"It might be because we drove the Cursed Ones to extinction back then, making them angry."

"Nonsense. If someone drove you to extinction, wouldn't you be angry?"

"Is there still a chance for redemption now? I have never managed to catch a Cursed One."

"I haven't caught one either."

"The one above... you just can't catch them, yet you pretend to be so high and mighty."

"Begging the Cursed Ones now is useless; it's better to deal with him together."

"Deal with him? How? With our heads? They already possess Saint-rank combat power. Do you want us ordinary lords to charge at a Saint-rank?"

"What kind of joke is that? If Saint-ranks could be defeated by numbers, they wouldn't be Saint-ranks."
