Chapter 276 Sweeping the Four Directions
After the coup in Black Rock City, the newly established War Council quickly got into action.

Roland sat at the center and commanded the entire war council to start the civil war.

In Black Rock City, all the extraordinary people from the War Council, including Hela, were sent out by Roland.

The troops withdrawn from the front line, under the command of the extraordinary people, attacked from all sides and quickly swept through all the local territories near Black Rock City.

At the same time, on the Old Qi side, after receiving Roland's order, Julius also declared a full curfew in the territory. Inside the territory, the local faction members who had been under surveillance were also quickly dealt with, some arrested and some executed.

Several legions that were ready also marched out from the territory to the surrounding areas. According to Roland's order, two legions went north to open up a passage to Black Rock City, three legions went south to open up a passage between the south and the fortress, and the remaining legions all marched west.

In the warlord territories annexed by Jiuqi Xin, the mining bases opened up by various local factions were also captured one by one by the troops withdrawn from the front lines.

In addition, the various territories in the border areas were also not idle.

With the help of the space scroll provided by Roland, the top leaders of the Border Area Faction, along with some of their members, were quickly teleported back to their own territories.

Afterwards, the border factions in various places quickly entered a state of war. Caught off guard, the territories of various border factions quickly opened up passages between each other's territories and connected their territories into one large territory.

However, compared to the War Council and Jiuqi, the Border Area Faction's territories lacked stamina. After connecting their territories, they lost the strength to continue expanding.

After all, the development of the border faction's territory is not very good. Unless they don't care about the lives of civilians, they really don't have the extra resources to continue external expansion while ensuring the survival of civilians.

Therefore, they all had to rest for a day or two, allowing Hela to teleport them over and use the space bracelet to bring them enough supplies before they could continue to expand.

In less than a month, the new war council quickly took over more than one-third of the rebels' original land.

And it was not until a month later that the local faction discovered that something seemed to be wrong. The border area faction seemed to be fighting with them?

What happened?

Although it is completely unclear what the situation is, is Locke leaning towards the Border Area Faction and determined to shoot all the local factions, or is it that the Border Area Faction wants to kill them all first and then create a fait accompli and force Locke to make a choice?
However, after they were unable to contact the extraordinary people who went to Black Rock City for the meeting, the local faction could no longer hold back and, without caring about consumption, they activated their precious instant communication tools one by one to exchange information with each other.

As they communicated, they pieced together the truth about Roland joining the Border Faction, the Black Rock City coup, and the War Council.

"That damn liar actually defected to the Border Region Faction so early. We must make him pay!"

Giacomo slammed the table and shouted angrily.

"Yes, we must teach Roland a lesson. He is just a spellcaster, but he dares to stage a coup and start a civil war. Does he really think we are easy to bully? Humph, he doesn't think he can fight against us with the support of the border faction, does he? It's a foolish dream."

A voice came from the gem in front of Giacomo.

Then, dozens of voices responded.

They were all filled with righteous indignation and vowed to fight the Border Area Faction to the end and avenge their leader.

After agreeing on the date for the expedition, Giacomo closed the gem in front of him, then he put it away and ran out quickly, shouting as he ran.

"Soran! Soran! Are you ready for everything I asked you to prepare?"

At Giacomo's call, a wild mage hurriedly ran up to him from outside and responded loudly.

"My lord, we are ready. Everything is ready."

Hearing Soran's words, Giacomo nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Take me there quickly."

"Yes, yes, yes, sir, this way."

Soran responded and led Giacomo. Under Soran's guidance, the two soon arrived at a secret courtyard in the city.

In the yard, there were dozens of carriages and hundreds of guards.

A breeze blew by, lifting the tattered curtains of the carriage, revealing countless golden shining lights.

Looking at the carriage in front of him, Giacomo frowned and scolded.

"Why are there only these few?"

Su Lun quickly explained.

"Sir, there can't be any more. Any more will attract too much attention."

Giacomo gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath.

"Damn it, forget it, just feed the rest to the dogs, and leave immediately."

As he spoke, Giacomo quickly climbed onto a carriage and pressed down the curtains that were blown up by the wind.

Soran also quickly called out to the guards, and the entire convoy started moving immediately.

Almost every carriage was very heavy, and the horses had difficulty pulling it.

There is no doubt that every carriage here is filled with large amounts of gold, silver and treasures.

With the whole city under blockade and martial law, Giacomo's convoy, which had made arrangements in advance, quickly and quietly left the city.

Although Giacomo just spoke nicely, he had no intention of sending troops. The reason why he spoke so righteously was just to trick others into sending troops to buy time for himself. He did not think that the local faction could defeat the border faction in terms of force.

Just as they left the city and walked onto the path, Soran, who was sitting in the carriage, raised his head slightly and looked into the distance.

Without hesitation, he turned around, reached into the carriage, scooped out a handful of things, and then he and the things in his hand disappeared.

Giacomo did not notice Soren's little move, but leaned against the curtain to protect his wealth.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

As the sounds of trampling gradually grew louder, Giacomo and his companions realized that something was wrong.

There are cavalry!
Giacomo quickly looked towards Soran's location, and only then did he realize that Soran had disappeared.

Although they were a little panicked, there was no way their carriage could compete with the cavalry in speed. Therefore, Giacomo forced himself to calm down and planned to disguise himself as a caravan to see if he could get away with it.

Just as the entire convoy pretended to remain calm and continued to move forward, a cavalry team of nearly a thousand people appeared in their sight.

Just as Giacomo was thinking about how to deal with them, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the direction of the cavalry.

Then, a large number of spears cut through the sky, directly killing all the people in the convoy.

The last thought in Giacomo's mind was as he looked at the spears coming towards him.

Why did they just take action?

"Tear."

Then, his head was pierced and he completely stopped thinking.
