Chapter 726: Dreadful Locust Army
Today, a massive army of different races from different regions of the conflict plains were gathered together in grass plains. The atmosphere was extremely heavy and solemn, and everyone was on edge. They looked towards the clear horizon with trepidation.
Both aura combatants and spirit sorcerers were arranged in formations, while the healers were protected in the middle. If it were any other time, this army could've been unbeatable in the entire conflict plains. But alas, if only it were that simple this time around.
In the rear of this huge army stood a giant in heavy armor standing tall like a mountain, holding his towering spear imbued with flame-like patterns, giving an intense, fiery aura.
"How long before the contact?" The giant asked the giant standing beside him in a grave
tone.
The second giant, holding a lance, solemnly replied, "Chief Commander Gunnar, the vanguard army will contact the Locust Army in twenty minutes!"
Chief Commander Gunnar was the previous Chairman of the Epic Plains' Alliance, but he was no longer in that lofty position after he fled the Epic Plains with his daughter upon offending someone he shouldn't have.
Nonetheless, his life was still quite lavish despite his arrival in his unfamiliar yet terrifying place, and it was all thanks to his daughter Charlotte catching the interest of the young lord of the Thunder Giant Clan.
He smoothly acquired resources to break through to the Unique Rank and climb the high ranks of the Conflict Plains Alliance.
Everything was going fine until the damn locust army suddenly showed up, and despite his connections, he was given no leeway and selected as the Chief Commander of this Vanguard Army.
Even his potential 'son-in-law,' who belonged to the mighty Thunder Giant Clan, was appointed to another region of this 'Locust Annihilation Army,' including his daughter.
Including him, everyone who was enjoying their lofty positions was baffled by these sudden steep orders from the higher-ups. It seemed as if someone extremely powerful was monitoring this entire thing, and no one could use their statuses or bribes their way out of this dangerous situation.
"We don't have any choice. That person is simply too powerful, and even the Queen has completely taken his side now." Vermont gloomily replied as he looked at a runic container in his hand, which was filled with crimson and purplish liquid.
"Bullshit! He's only powerful because he's in the conflict plains! If he had guts, why didn't he just step outside the conflict plains' protection? He's taking advantage of us by using the Legendary Key!" Skyfall retorted in indignation as his eyes were filled with fury.
"No, that person definitely had the power to back it up." Vermont sighed ruefully.
Skyfall was speechless. It caused him great pain to see his unyielding rival acting like a scaredy-cat. He exclaimed, "Why are you so afraid? It's not like you at all. Don't make me look down on you!"
Vermont smiled bitterly, "Once you experience it, you'll understand what I'm talking about. But I still advise you not to try it. If that goblin was good at scheming to keep us all in the dark all this time, then that person didn't need any schemes because he had the power to overcome
schemes.
"Furthermore, if we can enter the Path of Legend with him, I think we might have an upper hand against other lesser galaxies. Don't forget our goal. Once we achieve that rank, it won't be too late for a rematch.
"As for these sacrifices, they can only blame themselves for being weak!" Vermont coldly stated as he had already made up his mind; for him only the Path of Legend matters, and only that could he pay back the humiliation he received that day!
Diminutive oversaw gathering the filled special containers and delivering them back to Jacob. He took this job upon himself under the pretext of safety and speed. He was also the one who brought these special containers from somewhere.
At this moment, under the darkness of night, he was standing in front of 32 containers filled with blood that the members of the treaty had gathered in a few hours.
But there was a runic circle under those containers, shimmering with an ethereal glow, resonating with the runes of the continuers.
At this moment, Diminutive grimly asked while staring at the empty space, "Would it work? What if he noticed this? That person is not easy to deal with!"
A stoic yet profound voice rang at this moment in answer, "Don't worry, no one can go against the corrosion of time!"
