82 THE BANDIT STRONGHOLD
Long Tao was being carried to the stronghold by the bandits. He decided to not interfere. Although one of the avatars was still unconscious from the poison, the other avatars can easily wipe the current group. He could use the soul scourge thod, but it was better to get to the stronghold directly. The proceedings forwarded as Long Tao had predicted and he was transported to the stronghold soon enough. Long Tao had to give it to the bandits, because the place where they had positioned the stronghold was so covert., that they could manage to easily avoid detection from any foreign forces entering the region from inspection.
The stronghold was essentially built within the ridge of two mountains, dug within them. So, on the outside, it appeared to be no different than an ordinary mountain., but in actual, there were hordes of people who were hiding within these mountain spaces. They soon reached as what might look like a hidden cave and stood in front.” Password”. “Let red light cover the entire sky and becoming the heavens themselves.”. “Pass. Identify yourself and the number of your group”. “14, Blood blade.”. The ssenger saw the box and asked about it. The box was opened and Long Tao along with his belongings was present inside.
The possession was taken and long Tao was transferred into what can only be terd as a prison for captured individuals. Long Tao’s avatar was still unconscious because of the poison’s lingering effects, but he was getting better. He decided to co out for an inspection. The first place to go was to top a nearby guard and use his ability to control the person’s mind. That is the way Long Tao was going to wipe the stronghold. He was going to command these people to kill themselves.
Two avatars appeared simultaneously. One transferred the unconscious avatar to the Crimson Lord world while taking his position in the process. The other hid in the shadows, waiting for the guards to approach. Soon enough two figures appeared outside of the cell.” This guy seems to be still asleep. The possessions obtained from him are quite precious. The boss asked us to interrogate him about the location. Let’s enter and get hold of him” They entered and were approaching Long Tao. Just as they stood in front of him, a shutting sound was heard and a figure just closed the cell’s gate. Both of them were up in arms when one was attacked from behind where the figure was lying and the other guy was taken by the one in front. Soon the two people were already down and their mories scourged through. Both of their souls were in Long Tao’s control now.
Long Tao’s two avatars followed the trail as per the guard’s mories and began taking down more and more n in the process. Essentially6 within an hour, the whole prison facility was taken into control by Long Tao. He had 15 people under soul control as of now and more were to go. They had to wait for soone to scout the location outside and report the positions of the guards and the rest of the n. If he was going to take down the stronghold, he had to wipe each and every one of them. Hence this was a good opportunity for Long Tao to get the mories of the bandits as well as their treasury. Soon two people were out and scouting. The general location of the rest of the people nearby was soon reported and Long Tao set out for capturing more individuals. He couldn’t let anyone getaway. Hence, he was required to take control of the souls of most of the n.
The next part raided by Long Tao was going to be the entrances and exits of the whole area. According to the mories of the people, there were around 20 people who were always assigned to the guard post. These people being the first line of defense were capable too. Taking them down was not going to be easy. Hence divide and rule policy was to be used. The first capture was one of the people who was going to the toilet. The next two captures were of the sa situations, people coming out to attend to so ergencies. The next stage was grouping upon individuals at the sa. To keep an individual from making any kind of commotion, at last, five people were required to be ganging upon him. The first guard post was taken out just like that.
Long Tao moved along the border, capturing and controlling all the n in those areas. The benefit of this way was that the information about both the insider and outsider would be present in Long Tao’s hand. The next part was moving in and allocating so guards who will take care of those who would enter at other ti intervals. Long Tao decided to take upon the ss and the living quarters of the bandits next. The two avatars divided the people in control into two groups which followed up on two different trails. The first to be captured was the ss as this was not the ti, and most individuals present there were prisoners taken from before. The living quarters were soon taken too. Now the only thing remaining was the treasury and the main eting room where the leaders were currently residing.
The eting room-
The Bandit was eting up together to plan out the next great loot scenario that they were going to undertake. There were drinks being served around and a lot of shouting and applause. “What are we going for this ti leader?’ a murky man asked the person sitting at the center seat. The leader was veiled and had his body covered in black cloth. Until now no one had seen her face. The mbers were dying to see it but they were not good enough to ask and never powerful enough to force. A hoarse voice replied’ I heard we have a pill hall outer disciple as prisoner now. We could loot so of the supply chains of the pill hall. That would provide us with a good source of cultivation and pill material.”. “I am afraid you all won’t live past the day to actually ask anything from .”. all the figures turned just to see Long Tao entering. The guards were called but no response was obtained.
.....
“you shouldn’t bother. They are all under now. The mont any of your steps will be the last mont in this beautiful world of ours.”. Long Tao was chilled out and laughed. He proceeded to the center of the room and then said with a gleeful voice” So who wants to die first?”. The leaders present here laughed loudly.” Boy, you will not live to see another day, and even as your last struggle you are asking who among us is willing to die first. Are you genuinely insane?”. A figure appeared before the speaker and grabbed his face. After which a loud cracking sound was heard. Blood spurted out of the body as the skull was crushed with pure physical strength. ” the first volunteer is out. Who is going to be the next one.?” The hall was silent now. The body of the deceased was lying on the ground with his crushed skull ripped apart from his body.
The atmosphere was extrely serious and still now. The bandit’s leaders signaled each other and then attacked Long Tao at the sa ti. The next scene was multiple bodies lying on the ground, the sa as before, headless. But The skull was not crushed this ti. The head was stored to get the bounty on their identification. The rest of the bandit leaders were confused about whether to run away or fight Long Tao. They knew about their leader’s power. If they managed to gang up on Long Tao, they could secure a victory. So decided to run out, but soon screams were heard outside. Those people were ambushed by the puppets stationed by Long Tao. The group remaining inside began to plead to the leader but were ignored. The leader was still seated on his chair unmoving and not bothered by the scene. The bandits then chose to ask Long Tao for rcy but he didn’t show any of it. All of them were killed.
“You are quite confident in your strength to be unbothered by the scene in front of you. May I ask what will your next move be?’. The leader laughed and ten said” Killing ants proves nothing of your strength. Unlike them, I am quite sure of my chances against you boy.” Long Tao was really amused by the talk. How could the figure be so confident? He raised his hand and provoked the leader to co at him. The leader complied and soon a collision of both their punches occurred. The two were indulged in their fight when the other avatar opened up the treasury of the bandit stronghold.
