"Wait, wait for the other forces' final decision. This small loss is nothing to us, Fire Blood." The golden-masked man's voice was indifferent and cold, as if he didn't care at all about the lives of the mercenaries who died last night.
"Then Laura..." The burly man paused slightly, knowing that the silver-haired female mage was the captain's own daughter.
"Don't worry about her, she'll be fine." As soon as the words fell, a sliver of golden light flashed in the room and disappeared in an instant. The golden-masked man vanished from the window as if he had never been there. Such strength clearly indicated that he was a veteran Moon Class expert.
Chambord City Cathedral area.
In the underground chamber, waves of silver light appeared and disappeared, filling the entire chamber with an indescribable aura of holiness and sanctity.
This place is reinforced by layers of magical arrays, so it does not reveal the slightest aura. Even if you use a magical artifact like [ Earth Sight and Heaven Hearing ], you will not be able to break through such a defensive system. In the very center of the huge secret chamber, on a small altar-like stone, there is a one-meter-long wooden staff that looks like a charred fire stick.
As various colored flames flickered, powerful figures appeared one after another in this secret chamber.
Every powerful individual who arrived here concealed their true appearance. Some wore magical masks, some covered their faces with cloaks, and some used the power of laws to distort the light... All of these people were powerful individuals at the Moon Class, their bodies surging with powerful Dou Qi or magical energy. The presence of so many powerful individuals in this secret chamber at the same time made the air thick and suffocating.
"Can we begin?" a figure dressed in a black cloak, shrouded in darkness, Earth Inquiry impatiently.
"We'll have to wait a little longer; a few haven't arrived yet." The powerful figure dressed in the robes of the Church shook his head slightly.
"Snort!!"
Several reluctant snorts rang out simultaneously from the crowd.
The dozens of people who appeared here were all the strongest figures within a million miles. They wielded astonishing power, commanded formidable armies of millions, and held absolute sway over their respective regions. They were all undisputed overlords whose word was law. Under normal circumstances, which of these people wouldn't be extremely arrogant, the kind of proud and conceited individuals who would rather others wait for them than wait for others?
Therefore, although it has only been a short ten minutes since the beginning, I am already extremely impatient.
If it weren't for the fact that this secret alliance was orchestrated by two extraordinary and Resist super powers within a million miles, they would have already stormed off and left, instead of waiting here without even a seat.
A few minutes later.
Several more flashes of light appeared, and four or five more people entered the secret chamber.
One of them was none other than Meierbeili, the leader of the [ Wind-Racing Horse ] mercenary group. This eccentric and unruly lion did not conceal his face like the other powerful figures, but showed his true face. His gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the secret room, revealing a hint of disdain. He snorted coldly, but said nothing more.
Another flash of golden light appeared.
A figure wearing a magnificent golden mask appeared in the secret room.
"Heh heh, I really didn't expect this. I didn't expect you, a coward who hides his face and dares not show your face, to appear here. Aren't you afraid I'll chop you in One Sword?" Seeing the man in the golden, ornate mask appear, Meierbeili chuckled, his eyes filled with undisguised hostility, and a tense atmosphere immediately arose.
This scene was exactly what everyone expected.
The [ Wind-Racing Horse ] Mercenary Group and the [ Fire Blood ] Mercenary Group are the two largest mercenary organizations within a million miles. There is an irreconcilable rivalry between the two. Over the decades, there have been countless open and covert struggles and bloodshed. Both sides wish they could destroy each other in an instant. [ War Pirate ] Meierbeili and the man in the golden, gorgeous mask are sworn enemies from the first meeting.
Faced with the provocation of the [ War Pirate ], the man in the magnificent golden mask made no response, remaining as solid as a block of ice.
Meierbeili couldn't very well make a move right there, so he just kept chuckling coldly.
"Alright, everyone's here. I'm honored that you're all here on time." Just as Qi Feng was starting to get nervous, a strange voice that had never been heard before suddenly rang out in the hall. Everyone was taken aback, because only at this moment did they realize that, at some point, a voice shrouded in silver mist had appeared next to the dark, fire-stick-like wooden staff in the center of the hall.
It should be noted that everyone present was undoubtedly the most terrifyingly powerful expert within a radius of a million miles.
Such a group of people, gathered together, could probably destroy countless empires in an instant, change dynasties, cause the sky to collapse, the earth to crack, the Storm Riders and clouds to change color, and space to shatter. Almost no one could escape from their sight, and no one could hide their tracks in front of them... But this time, just now, among these powerful figures who looked down on all sides, not one of them could find out when or how this figure shrouded in silver mist appeared in the hall.
What terrifying strength!
Everyone simultaneously considered a possibility, and their hearts trembled. Even the raging lion-like Meierbeili restrained his arrogance and calmed down.
"To make a long story short, everyone here today has only one purpose: to eliminate King of Chambord Alexander, the cold-blooded and bloodthirsty scourge who is gradually growing in power. Before he truly poses a threat, we must cut him down and eliminate the danger. Only in this way can we ensure the balance of power within a million miles, preventing a second Yassin the Butcher from unleashing a massive war and boundless Bloody on this peaceful land. Therefore, we are doing this out of necessity, for the peace and tranquility of the entire continent!"
The person was enveloped in a silvery-white mist, like a divine fog.
Throughout, he did not display any particularly domineering aura, but the tone of his voice was devoid of any emotion, giving one an irresistible urge to worship and tremble in fear—a few words of seduction.
"Of course, according to the information we have obtained, Chambord City still hides countless secrets. A month ago, King of Chambord entered the core small world area of the God and Demon Palace and obtained countless rare treasures and rare divine medicines. In addition to Chambord City's original wealth, population, and magical civilization, these extremely precious treasures will be distributed among everyone present today according to their contribution to the battle, as long as King of Chambord is killed. I can guarantee that my side will not take a single penny of the treasures!"
The mysterious voice echoed in the ears of many powerful individuals.
"Your Excellency has gone to such lengths to destroy Chambord City and kill the King of Chambord, yet you haven't touched a single coin of the city's treasures. I wonder what your side wants to gain from Chambord City?" [ War Pirate ] Meierbeili was indeed a formidable man, and upon hearing this, he spoke with skepticism.
The gazes of the other powerful figures also focused on the mysterious man.
The mysterious man clearly didn't do this for fun, going to such great lengths to destroy Chambord City.
"Since you all want to know, I won't hide it from you. I only want one person, one woman, from Chambord City," the mysterious man explained calmly and in a completely emotionless tone.
"A woman?" Everyone was astonished.
For powerful figures like them, what beautiful and alluring woman couldn't they obtain? They were merely dispensable seasonings in their long cultivation lives. To say that they would wage such a massive war just for a woman is even more absurd than the previous claim of 'not taking a single penny'.
Third update.
Today's YY event was a great success. Thank you to the organizers and all the brothers and sisters who participated.
