Chapter 148: Daven
“No one move!” The masked old man, leaning on his dragon-headed cane, shouted loudly, leaving the nobles who were already slightly panicked completely at a loss!
Nicholas frowned deeply; this was not part of the original plan! The sudden appearance of these individuals instantly shattered the defenses that Cyril had prepared for so long.
A brief silence gave the old man time to speak. With a gentle tap of his dragon-headed cane in the void, a terrifying ripple spread out, freezing all powerhouses below the rank of Emperor, leaving them unable to move!
“I am the Void Emperor!” The old man’s voice wasn’t loud, but it gradually spread like thunder, causing the entire space to feel like sinking into a quagmire. Nicholas, who was proficient in spatial powers, had a slight change in expression. He turned to Duke Falexis, who had already approached, and said.
“Spatial power. The opponent should be a criminal organization disguised as the Milik Kingdom.”
Naturally, unauthorized aggression won’t be sanctioned by the empire, but plundering by criminal gangs can’t be restrained by such rules. Milik lacks legitimate means to plunder Cyril, so he has no choice but to become a bandit and shift all blame onto these so-called criminal organizations.
“You shall not move if you wish to preserve your lives, remember.”
After the old man finished speaking, the wise naturally followed his instructions, whether it be the sudden appearance of tens of thousands of strong individuals or the retaliation from the Kingdom of Cyril that followed. As long as they didn’t harm their lives without cause, it was fine to watch coldly from the sidelines.
And the leader who previously wore a red mask and shattered the roof with a gesture stepped forward, arriving by the side of the Empty Emperor.
“Duke Falexis, no more words, hand over the Oracle Book!”
The leader wearing the red mask had just spoken when Laogeri, who had been silent behind Duke Falexis, suddenly widened his eyes, as if hearing some dreadful news. Blood vessels instantly reddened his pupils!
“Daven!!!”
A roar as if the heavens and earth were collapsing stunned some of the weaker nobles, even Tyr managed to maintain his composure only by instantly shutting off his hearing with his mind’s eye. Yet, the tremors in the air still made him shiver!
Initially puzzled by Laogeri’s sudden roar, Tyr only reacted when he heard the two words the other had shouted.
“I remember, Laogeri is the last disciple except for himself, the only traitor, also named Daven! Same name as the current Lord Cyril the First, the Dragon Slayer!”
“Ah~ Ah~” The leader wearing the red mask emitted a bored sound, poking his ear with his finger, sneering.
“It’s quite noisy, old man… Ah, no!”
Just as the leader wearing the red mask finished speaking, he slowly placed his right hand on the mask and lifted it to reveal a handsome face inside. The crimson eyes couldn’t hide the mockery, and a slight smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth as he spoke softly.
“It should be ‘Master’ instead.”
“You’ve got the nerve to call yourself a master! Milik’s dog!!” Laogeri’s face flushed red with anger, and Duke Falexis was equally displeased, this guy had caused them no end of trouble in the past.
“Laogeri, calm down!” Nicholas, standing nearby, couldn’t help but interject!
“It’s really cold, Master. And I’m not some dog of Milik’s. I am the Legion Commander of the criminal organization Krimi, Daven.” Daven’s calm reaction stood in stark contrast to Laogeri’s, causing others to curse Milik’s kingdom for its despicable behavior. They didn’t even bother to change the name properly, just flipping it around. It was blatantly playing with the rules of the empire!”
“Daven…”
“It’s still the same, hand over the Oracle Book. You don’t need to stall for time. The demigod sealing emperor guarding the periphery has already been held back by the Sang Funeral demonic beast tide we specifically triggered, and even the God of Proxis can’t intervene. Duke Falexis, the only forces you can mobilize are just a few dozen sealing emperors. Even if all the sealing emperors attending the banquet obey you, there are no more than twenty in total. You have no chance of winning.” Daven’s calm analysis caused Nicholas and others to darken slightly, while Laogeri, who had long been enraged, disregarded all attempts to stop him and stepped forward towards Daven across the air!
“Daven!!!”
The Emperor’s expression slightly changed, while tens of thousands of strong ones were pushed back by the opponent’s demi-god aura, all stepping back simultaneously.
Just about to counterattack immediately, but Daven waved his hand slightly, excitement showing beneath his mask.
“Leave it to me!”
Boom!!!
The next moment, Daven burst forth with a momentum no less than Laogeri’s, taking a step forward.
From afar, two terrifying forces collided with a resounding crash, dazzling light shooting straight into the sky, illuminating the entire Duke’s mansion, and even a tenth of the kingdom!
