"What happened?"
Seeing Oliver's extremely angry expression, Victor tentatively asked.
"Buda City has been massacred!"
The chilling words sent a cold sweat down Victor's spine, even as he was enveloped in the sweltering heat.
A massacre of the entire city?!
Since the establishment of the Dynasty of Stars, such heinous events have occurred only once in a short period of time, and each time they cause a huge uproar, involving countless people and forces, subjecting them to the dynasty's wrath, and even leading to the complete annihilation of large Fate Master Sect.
Even today, are there still Fate Master who dare to do something so groundbreaking?
Who is it?
Victor asked quickly.
Oliver lowered his head, looking at the small figure before him, his ruby-like pupils flashing with intense killing intent. "He's Fate Master of the Blood River Will. You should know him too."
Having said that, Oliver used his magic to depict the appearance of the Ice Realm Auerbach.
"It's him? The super genius Auerbach of the Shadow Serpent Clan..." Victor stared at the figure before him, stunned, a question rising in his mind.
Why?
"Perhaps this guy mistook the people who wiped out his family for the Buda Star Envoy and his Star Soldier. Don't forget, you and I concealed our identities back then."
Gustavo suddenly spoke, using Divine Power to express his guess.
"Is that so...?" Victor suddenly realized.
Oliver observed Victor's expression, keenly catching the surprise on the latter's face. "It seems it really has nothing to do with him..."
Victor's surprise was undeniable, Oliver didn't believe that a young man could hide his true thoughts from him, even though Victor had shown great talent in cultivation.
However, spiritual practice and interpersonal relationships are different; they are not on the same level.
"I need to report this matter to His Excellency the Molten Fire Great Star Envoy. You can wait for me here, or return to your own residences. It's best not to go out for the time being."
After giving a warning, Oliver sank into the ground and followed the ubiquitous veins of flame to the central volcano of the Molten Fire Land, where the Molten Fire Great Star Envoy usually resided.
Looking at the empty stone seat, Victor immediately began to communicate with Gustavo telepathically.
"Thanks to you for hiding your identity, otherwise, Auerbach's spearhead would have been aimed at us, not Buda City!" Victor said with lingering fear, his heart trembling at the thought of Oliver's words about massacring the city.
The Shadow Serpent Clan members are indeed all ruthless and vicious madmen, actually doing such a shocking thing.
"Hehe, now you know how effective the interpersonal skills I taught you are, right?"
"Kill someone and scatter their ashes, cut off the roots and eliminate the weeds, hide your tracks and conceal your identity, use aliases everywhere. These are the lessons left by our ancestors. If you can learn these things, consider yourself lucky!"
Gustavo chuckled, and Victor nodded repeatedly, his last bit of resistance vanishing. Compared to his life, what did it matter if he had to live a little longer?!
"What should we do now? Continue hunting down those 'favored enemies' you mentioned?" Victor asked.
"No!"
Gustavo shook his head, shifting his attention to a newly emerging task in his mind.
"Let's go help the Star God Lineage of the Savage Star and win this war!"
[Hint: Your previous actions ignited the fuse of conflict between the two major forces on the Savage Star, fulfilling the prerequisite for the intermediate quest "Battle of the Savage"]
[You can choose to accept or ignore the intermediate quest "Battle of the Savage"]
[If you accept the quest, you can only choose the Star God Lineage as your faction. The opposing factions are the various Fate Master factions.]
[Task Reward: 20-80 Fate Gold Coin, the exact amount depends on the completion of the task.]
There were only 89 participants in total from the Savage Star. After arriving in the Molten Fire Land, Gustavo offered the coordinates of the ancient ruins of the "End Sect" in exchange for the protection of the Molten Fire Great Star Envoy and a large amount of resources.
Afterwards, he used these resources to get close to Oliver, who had extensive connections. With Oliver's help, he used the resources to get help from the Star God Lineage and successively killed three participants, obtaining 4 Fate Gold Coin.
One of the participants was unlucky; the gold coins he had just acquired were snatched away by Gustavo.
With the help of four Fate Gold Coin, Gustavo purchased the Revival Badge, raising his life rank to High Great Transcendent level and easily reaching the level of Truth Fate Master.
Influenced by the "Symbiotic Blood Pact," Victor also advanced to the Level Four Fate Artifact Master. His Fate Artifact is called "Thunder Giant Cannon," which looks like an old-fashioned iron cannon, but its power is terrifying.
Of course, without Gustavo's help, Victor would have exploded and died long ago.
Victor was so excited about his rapid promotion that he was numb and still in a daze.
However, this time, he clearly had the opportunity to test his true strength.
Faced with the tempting rewards of the "Battle of the Savage" quest, Gustavo simply couldn't resist and accepted the quest without hesitation.
This means that the two of them will be going together to participate in this upcoming brutal battle.
In addition to this, another reason why Gustavo readily accepted the mission was that he understood that once the war between the Star God Lineage and the Fate Master Sect broke out, the entire Savage Star would be hard-pressed to escape unscathed.
Those who participated in the Fate Supremacy War will certainly be drawn in; no, to be more precise, these troublemakers will definitely join in to seize the benefits.
In this way, Gustavo can simultaneously achieve both the mission "Battle of the Savage" and the goal of killing participants.
"Hopefully I can catch up with those two..." Gustavo sighed inwardly.
Compared to Lancelot, who has already jumped to the top of the rankings, and Logo, who has just received investment from the Time-Eroding Ouroboros, his progress is too slow to be seen. He must speed up his progress.
I am the protagonist of this Fate War!
