Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 999: A Teardrop
It was almost noon, and the rain that had been raining for three days had finally stopped. Meggis leaned on the crutch, maintaining a noble elegance as he emerged from the Undying Temple. He raised his head and looked at the sky to the north. The rain clouds that had not dissipated could still see a big gap, and bright sunlight shone down from that gap. Looking at the rain clouds, Meggis sighed.
When the flame pillar tore through the rain clouds, Meggis had no hope for Joey and began to pack his bags. Evidently, in the twenty years he had known Joey, he had never seen Joey use a killing move comparable to the Heaven Ripping Flame Pillar, not even at his peak. With such an opponent, Joey's chances of winning were pitifully low.
Indeed, not long after, a trusted aide sent the old man a piece of bad news. The old man had expected that Joey was dead, but Meggis could not help but sigh softly. Then he decisively left. He was old, so he had mixed feelings for Joey, who could not be called a friend. But that didn't mean that Meggis would stay with the Undying Temple and the Wolves to suffer the consequences of losing Joey.
He had an even more important mission, and Meggis had to personally deliver the news to the lord. One could foresee that there would be fundamental changes in the Land of Darkness, and no matter how much they changed, there would be nothing else for him as an agent in the future.
As they descended the mountain, Meggis met the werewolves who had already returned from the dueling arena. These malevolent men all had disappointed expressions on their faces. Gangen was not surprised to see Meggis leaving. The two of them only nodded and crossed each other.
When Gangen stood on the square of the Undying Temple again, he shook his head as he looked at this unique and somewhat strange building. Joey's time was over, and this building probably wouldn't last long. He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Gather everyone in the square. Remember, it's everyone."
Naturally, the Iron Wolf Guards would go down and deliver Gangen's orders. Joey had died in battle, and Gangen was the only one on the Evil Tooth Barrier who could give orders. But Gangen knew better than anyone else that he would not be able to speak anymore.
Eagle Wing Mountain Ridge.
Black Warbler, who had returned to her wooden building, raised Lega to the wall with one hand in the Eagle Beak Mountain's black-feathered stronghold. Black Warbler was no longer obedient to Lega, and her expression even became a bit ferocious. The woman raised her hand. "Why is there such a big omission in the information you provided, Viscount Allen?" The Origin Energy in his hand swallowed and condensed into a short water-blue knife that rested on Lega's neck. Alright, he's just a viscount, but he has the strength to kill Joey, but General Sling's letter doesn't mention anything about it! "I don't know when an Empire viscount, even a viscount of strength, has such terrifying combat strength!"
"And his subordinates, a mere viscount, with two level 20 experts, and five level 17 or 18 strong guards, is this the viscount's lineup? Damn it, I also heard that Zach brought people to attack the nest of some dark spear at night. In the end, the entire army was annihilated, and he was buried there as well. In other words, apart from the guards, Sir Alan had left behind the expert guarding the Dark Spear. And all of you have not mentioned this! "
'"I don't know, baby, can we put this knife down first and have a good talk?" Lega smiled bitterly, sweating profusely.
"Don't get too close to me. In the past, I only gave you some benefits because you were General Sling's agent. Now?" Black Warbler sneered a few times, but he still didn't dare to kill Lega, which would definitely offend General Silin. She bent her knees to Lega's lower abdomen, causing the man to scream. Only then did Black Warbler lift him up and throw him into the corner, angrily saying, "Well, because of your omission of information, I was wrong. Not only can't kill that Sir Alan, they're thinking about me. Tell you Lega, you'd better get lost now, and I'm leaving this place too."
"Damn, even Joey died at his hands. If he recovers, I won't be his opponent."
'"You want to leave? Heavens, you're going to give up on Black Feather. This is your foundation that you've been managing for many years. Are you willing to give up just like that?"
Black Warbler sneered, "Nonsense. No matter how big your inheritance is, you still need to have a life to enjoy it. If you don't leave now, I won't be able to walk even if I want to. If you don't want to, I won't care. But if you dare to block my path, I'll kill you first!"
Lega smiled bitterly and shut up.
Only then did Black Warbler harrumph and leave the room to prepare for his escape.
In the afternoon, Alan was already standing in the square in front of the Undying Temple. The checkpoints along the Evil Teeth Barrier Mountain Path did not make things difficult for him. Alan had come up the mountain to receive the results of the battle. According to the rules laid down by the giants of the Dark Lands, both sides of the duel had to hand over all their property to the winner. Of course, in this lawless land of darkness, there was no shortage of winners who had not even had time to receive the results of the battle before giving the stronger pirates and their own businesses a clean precedent to eat.
However, after watching the final battle between Alan and Joey, no matter if it was Butara or Weiss, they couldn't think of this idea. Therefore, the two of them stood behind Alan and announced to Gunn and the pirates as notaries that there would be no more Wolves in the Dark Lands from now on. All of Joey's inheritance on the Evil Tooth Barrier belonged to the Dark Spear.
Alan looked at the man in front of him silently. As Joey's adopted son, the only remaining leader of Zhan Lang, Gangen smiled bitterly under Alan's judging gaze. He took a step forward and said, "Everything is up to Lord Alan's orders."
Alan was not surprised by this result. Joey was the spiritual pillar of the Wolf War. Zhan Lang didn't have the courage to fight against him even though his pillars had collapsed. He nodded, looked up at the Undying Temple, and then made a gesture.
Someone in the crowd walked out. Gangen was stunned for a moment before lowering his head. Gurus stood beside Alan, who said to Gunn, "This man is no stranger to you. That's right, Gurus will be my agent in the future." Zhan Lang is a member of the Dark Spear from today onwards, and Gurus will take over the management of the Evil Tooth Barrier on my behalf. I'm sure he'll do better than Joey, and you'll be his best arm, don't you think, Mr. Gunn? "
Gunn raised his head and looked at Gurus, hesitating to say anything. Instead, the latter said directly, "Everything that happened in the past will disappear from this moment onwards. From now on, as long as you help me take care of the teeth barrier for Lord Alan, I can let bygones be bygones."
Gangen was relieved.
Alan turned around and looked at Budara and Wes with a smile. "Thanks to you two being my notaries, we are hosting a banquet on the Evil Tooth Barrier tonight. You two must attend."
Budara and Weiss looked at each other and smiled. Naturally, they had no reason to refuse. Alan turned to Gunn and said, "Prepare a quiet room for me. Don't let anyone disturb me until evening. If there's anything else, we'll talk about it tonight. Also, arrange for a troop to go to the Black Wood Forest to help me bring the Dark Spear over. Regis …"
The youth drilled out.
Alan patted him on the shoulder and said, "You go and explain the situation to Edward. I hope to see them tonight."
Gangen agreed and immediately took Alan to the quiet room. Laura and Green Dragon Knight followed closely behind to ensure that Alan would not be disturbed while he sat quietly recovering his Origin Energy. After Alan left, everyone was naturally busy with their own business. Currently, Birick was the happiest person on the Evil Tooth Barrier. The old man had never thought that he would be able to visit the Undying Temple one day. Moreover, Gurus, who was going to take care of the Evil Tooth Barrier for Alan, had politely arranged a room for the old man in the Undying Temple. This honor made the old man suspicious in his dreams.
The name of the Dark Spear sounded impressive, but there was no need for the old or the small of this bandit group to exist. But when Alan asked Gunn to pick them up, Gurus knew that Alan wanted him to take care of these bitter people. This was only a small matter for Gurus, especially before Alan handed over the real power to him.
Gurus was originally a War Wolf, so he was familiar with War Wolf and the Evil Tooth Barrier. Right now, the Evil Tooth Barrier had changed its owner, but there was not much change in its management. After Gurus had arranged for the dinner party to be held tonight, he went to a room by himself. Pushing open the door, a woman's back slammed into his eyes.
"Margaret" Gurus said in a hoarse voice, as if he had used all of his strength to call out the name.
The woman's shoulders trembled. Margaret turned around and smiled miserably. "It's good to die at your hands. It's good."
'"No, I'm not going to kill you. Although you did that to me, I would have done the same thing to you. But I can't treat you like I used to, so Margaret, I'm going to arrange for you to leave tomorrow." Gurus looked at her with a complicated expression and stared at her for a moment before shaking his head.
"You want me to leave?" Margaret looked at the man in surprise and whispered, "But where can I go?"
"There are many places you can go. The Iron Spear Collar is not bad, at least better than the Land of Darkness. You can find a man you like and live a peaceful life. In short, you don't have to stay in the Land of Darkness anymore."
"Don't you want me to stay by your side?"
Gurus shook his head and his expression became cold. "I'm not a good person, but I have to admit, I really love you. Even if I did, that's why I gave you this chance. And things like this will never happen again. If you don't want to leave, that's fine. I think there should be many men willing to accept you, but there definitely won't be me in there."
"Is that so? Then I understand. Please take me to the Iron Spear Collar."
Gurus nodded, then left the room and closed the door. After the door was closed, a tear fell from Margaret's face.
This is for the Gurus Flow.
