Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 2951 A massive burst of holy light suddenly exploded across the walls of Warwick City. Warriors clad entirely in white, with white cloaks, white helmets, white swords, white boots, scaled the city walls from three directions. Soon, screams echoed everywhere. The garrison forces defending Warwick City, loyal to the Ludendorff family, collided head-on with the Church's Vindicators. However, it was obvious that the Church's Vindicators were far fiercer and more formidable. Warwick City was only a third-rate stronghold in the wastelands.

It had been established just within the past decade. Previously, this place was no more than a large trading post. Therefore, the wall's height and defenses were mediocre at best. The city mayor, Stetson Sawyer, was a wealthy merchant who had sworn allegiance to the Ludendorff family. Seeing the situation turning dire, he loaded up over a dozen vehicles with the jewels and money he had hoarded over the years and slipped out through Warwick City's back gate. As for the tens of thousands of citizens in the city, to hell with them. Their fate was no longer his concern!

---- After all, these major cities in the Outlands were already in constant turmoil. Today, this guy was mayor; tomorrow, that one was governor; the day after, someone else was the warlord. Power kept rotating, people died, and someone else always stepped in to take their place. "Contact family headquarters immediately and tell them we're no match for the Church's troops," Stetson ordered his curvaceous secretary with a dark expression.

He added, "I held out for a full day and night, but in the end, we ran out of supplies and ammunition, so | had to abandon the city to preserve our remaining forces." The secretary looked confused. "Sir, we only held out for half an hour. We barely put up a fight, and they broke through in one assault. Won't this report cause problems?" Stetson cursed furiously. "Problems, my ass! You idiot! What else do you want me to do? Face off against these white devils from the Church and get hanged by them? Report it exactly as | said.

It's not that our side was incompetent, but that the enemy was too strong, so headquarters will have to find another solution!" The secretary, thoroughly scolded, could only comply reluctantly. Stetson watched Warwick City fade into the distance behind ---- them, his face filled with anguish. "! spent half my life's savings to get this position in the first place.

| never imagined these Church bastards would just snatch away everything I'd built "But hey, at least I've squeezed plenty of profit out of the place over the years, enough to live it up somewhere else." Suddenly, one of his men up ahead shouted harshly, "Who's there? Get out of the way immediately. This is the mayor of Warwick City's convoy. How dare you block our path? Do you have a death wish?" Hearing this, Stetson frowned. When war broke out, bandits and robbers were inevitable on the roads. However, he was not worried because he had brought all the city's warriors with him.

Anyone who dared cross him on this journey was asking for death The only problem now was deciding where to go. From the looks of it, nearly all of the vast Outlands would soon be engulfed in warfare. If push came to shove, he would have to pay a fortune for legitimate papers to enter one of the major nations. Either way, with his money, he would be top dog wherever he went. Women and all kinds of pleasures would never be in short supply. While Stetson was lost in these fantasies, he heard his men up ---- ahead first cry out in alarm, then scream in agony.

This was just the beginning Stetson shot up in alarm and looked toward the front of the convoy. He saw a giant of a man charging through like a battering ram, wielding a warhammer the size of a leopard's head, mercilessly crushing Warwick City's warriors. Everything in his path was utterly destroyed. Stetson's face immediately turned grim, and he shouted, " Everyone, attack! Kill that bastard!"
