Chapter 1108 - Chapter 1108 Chapter 676 Stirring Shadows_2
Chapter 1108: Chapter 676: Stirring Shadows_2 Chapter 1108: Chapter 676: Stirring Shadows_2 “In this way, theoretically speaking, only these Otherworldly Lords dare to blatantly use a nation’s royal family as a shield, attempting to divert everyone’s attention.”
The Nightmare Knight lightly waved his withered finger and continued, “Additionally, according to the organization’s research on these Otherworldly Lords, it is discovered that they have a unique and mysterious way of forming contracts with powerhouses or peasants from other continents, and then directly summon them to our continent.”
“Are there such miraculous things? I thought the Otherworldly Lords and their peasant followers descended together.”
No. 7 Black-robed Person spoke with astonishment and shock, “I didn’t expect these Otherworldly Lords to have such miraculous abilities.”
“That’s right, but a foolish fellow like you who regards others as mere ants would never know this, right? After all, besides professional scholars, no one cares about when an ant eats, drinks, defecates, or sleeps, let alone what it eats or how much it eats.”
The Nightmare Knight sneered again and then nonchalantly continued, “It doesn’t hurt to tell you that the miraculous aspects of these Otherworldly Lords far exceed your imagination. The organization has already established a new department specifically for their research.”
“…Indeed, I was shallow.”
After a moment of contemplation, No. 7 Black-robed Person nodded thoughtfully, “Since these ants… fellows can summon powerhouses from other continents, then it is reasonable for a mysterious Tier 5 Powerhouse to appear.”
“That’s exactly the case. Although most of the Otherworldly Lords pose no threat due to their short time of descent, it is not impossible for a few of them to be threatening.”
The Nightmare Knight slowly nodded and solemnly said, “According to the usual methods of the organization, even if such uncertain beings do not provoke us intentionally, we must seize the chance to eliminate them, especially if they have seriously affected our Divine Plan.”
The Nightmare Knight then stretched out a second withered finger, resembling a tree branch, and continued, “Alright, let’s go back to the previous topic. The reason I confirmed that the opponent is an Otherworldly Lord is because of the actual situation.”
After a pause, the Nightmare Knight looked down at the No. 7 Black-robed Person and asked, “You should know about the other opponent in this battle, besides the White Knight, especially that sudden Princess’s Guest Official.”
“My Lord, are you saying that the Princess’s Guest Official accompanying the Coldflame Fifth Princess, or in other words, the new Lord of Cyan City, is the powerful force that hindered my actions before?”
This time, No. 7 Black-robed Person responded quickly, “But how could this be possible?”
“Apart from the words ‘how could this be possible,’ can you think of anything else in your muscle-filled head?”
Upon hearing the doubts revealed in the words of No. 7 Black-robed Person, the Nightmare Knight impatiently continued, “That’s precisely the actual reason I’m talking about. Since the Cyan Town changed hands, the rumor has it that the New Lord of Cyan City is an Otherworldly Lord. Haven’t you heard about this?”
“This subordinate indeed heard that, but with respect to this matter, this subordinate thought that it was just a smokescreen thrown out by some force taking advantage of the Coldflame Royal Family’s predicament.”
No. 7 Black-robed Person forced a smile and responded with a lower voice, “After all, it was only a few days after those Otherworldly Lords descended that Cyan Town was occupied. How could those ants possibly…”
“It seems that your arrogance and ignorance are acting up again.”
The Nightmare Knight snorted coldly and continued, “So, I assume you also didn’t take the rumor of a Tier 5 Powerhouse in Cyan Town seriously?”
“I did hear the rumor about the new Lord of Cyan City having a Tier 5 Powerhouse by their side.”No. 7 Black-robed Person nodded and hesitatedly said, “However, this is just a common trick used by many forces to deter external enemies. Most of them are just bluffing. When I left the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, I went to Cyan Town. After not feeling any suspicious aura, I did not continue the investigation.”
“Foolish. Since the opponent is an Otherworldly Lord, the Tier 5 Powerhouse must be in his territory. How could he always stay in Cyan Town?”
The Nightmare Knight shook his head helplessly. His thin face, hidden in the shadows, was like a sculpture, illuminated by a faint blue light, making a very three-dimensional outline.
Although one could barely make out the outline, it gave a very chilling feeling.
The Nightmare Knight continued with his hoarse, deep voice, “How do you explain the latest event of the Fifth Princess and the Lord of Cyan City fighting off the Saint Night Army in the mountain fortress? A Tier 5 Powerhouse who has appeared on the battlefield can’t possibly be fake, right?”
“Sir, you are right. In the report I submitted to the headquarters, I focused on this part.”
No. 7 Black-robed Person, who was tall and burly, nodded again and said, “It is said that it was a Tyro Mage powerhouse that appeared. Although I thought of the Magic and Martial Arts Dual Powerhouse who killed No. 9 Senior at Furnace Castle City at the first moment, I soon realized that after provoking us, they would never reveal their Tier 5 Powerhouse so openly. So I mainly doubted the other Tier 5 Powerhouse of the Coldflame Royal Family, the Lava Species mage who specializes in fire magic.”
As he spoke, No. 7 Black-robed Person’s tone became more hesitant and continued, “But after listening to your analysis, sir, I realized that it is very likely the Fire Magic and Martial Dual Powerhouse who killed No. 9 Senior…”
Pausing for a moment, No. 7 Black-robed Person added, “I didn’t expect the Lord of Cyan City to be so reckless. After provoking us, he dared to strut about so openly.”
“It’s not recklessness, but the cleverness of the Princess’s Guest Official.”
The Nightmare Knight’s tone was evidently filled with more murderous intent, as he said coldly, “Looking at her actions so far, she has always been mixing the truth with the fakes, making unexpected moves, and making people unable to tell the difference between true and false. In fact, they even manage to clear their own suspicions by doing so. Such an opponent truly deserves caution.”
“I see. It seems that the Princess’s Guest Official is undoubtedly the mysterious saboteur.”
The strange disguised voice continued to echo as No. 7 Black-robed Person pondered and nodded, asking, “Sir, now that you know everything, does this mean that our main target for this attack will be the Fifth Princess and the Princess’s Guest Official?”
“Don’t jump to conclusions just yet. After all, these are just my speculations. Whether they are correct or not, this war will give the final answer. As long as the opponent’s Tier 5 Powerhouse takes action, they won’t be able to conceal it from our eyes.”
The Nightmare Knight waved his exposed, withered hand and continued ominously, “And our mission in this war is not just to eliminate the Fifth Princess and the Princess’s Guest Official. We should also take advantage of the situation to get rid of the White Knight.”
After a pause, the Nightmare Knight continued coldly, “I presume you’ve noticed that in today’s battle, although the White Knight’s methods were indeed unexpected, I only used 60% of my power. I deliberately showed weakness so that once the enemy thinks that my strength is just as it seems, the next match will be his undoing.”
“So this is the tactic of luring the enemy into a false sense of security? First, let them underestimate us, then catch them off guard and deliver a fatal blow.”
No. 7 Black-robed Person contemplated and nodded thoughtfully.
“Correct, don’t forget that I still have three trump cards and haven’t used them yet.”
A cold smile appeared on the Nightmare Knight’s hazy face, as he slowly said, “Once I play my trump cards, both the Princess’s Guest Official and the White Knight will meet their final doom.”
