Several Luo Ze officers guarding the cities around Qinghe Volcano saw the cities fall so swiftly that they realized it was only a matter of time before Yang Yu reached them.
The illustrious name of the colorful-haired masked man had, at some point, become legendary among the troops.
His swift capture of the cities surrounding Qinghe Volcano was a striking addition to his legend.
During a speech, all it took was an inadvertent mention that the colorful-haired masked man was in charge of the Beastmen's battle operations for the troops' morale to be cut in half.
If they really confronted the colorful-haired masked man, even though the soldiers would still follow orders, one could not expect those who had lost a great deal of their morale to perform at their normal level.
The final outcome was self-evident.
After much deliberation, several officers defending the city decided to abandon it and flee.
