Chapter 610: The Overlords (2/2)
”Imperial, what do you think about this?” Blackdemon Overlord asked for the woman's thoughts about the matter. It was a great loss to lose Mortheus as he was one of the top combatants of the Overlords, if the Sages decided to go all out to hunt them, then they would be in a disadvantageous position.
The other overlords also looked at Imperial Queen. She had the most knowledge about almost anything and so far the most intelligent so they sought an answer from her.
”I don't know.” She shook her head, ”The clues I found are irrelevant and can't come up with a decent conclusion.”
Blackdemon looked at Imperial Queen with a confusing gaze but he dropped it eventually. If the queen didn't know, then she probably didn't know.
But the thing was, Imperial Queen lied about not having a decent conclusion. For some reason, she kept the information about Windking and an unknown person visiting her hidden from the group.
”I can feel a little energy of sword forms here.” Secretzone maximized his senses and found out about this, ”It's made of lightning of an unknown origin.”
”Sword form of a lightning?” Blackdemon examined the dead Overlord's body once again and saw some deep wounds. He took a good look in it and said, ”Mortheus was injured by that sword form. However, he was killedd by committing suicide.”
”Suicide?” The other overlords were stumped to hear this. What could possibly make someone like Mortheus, a prideful being, commit such a thing?
”It looks like he encountered a very powerful existence.” Blackdemon added. His expression was grim.
”Who is it possibly? Everlasting or some other Sages out there?” Dynasty asked. Only the Sages had the capability of contending against them so they were the first suspects.
”No.” Blackdemon denied this notion, ”No one in the Sages has the capability to maneuver lightning sword forms. Moreover, if the Sages tried to infiltrate our place, we will know it as we have an intense connection with them. So, the Sages doing this isn't viable.”
Everyone pondered and found this reasonable and realistic. The Sages wouldn't be dumb enough to cause an all out war between the two parties. After all, it would only be detrimental to the future prospects of Immortal. Unless Everlasting Sage was confident enough of exterminating the Overlords and maintain the balance of the world.
”So who could it be?” Secretzone tried to wrack his brain but a single person didn't pop out. Even the strongest perfect immortal wasn't valid enough to be thought of.
”I have to talk to Timedeath about this.” Blackdemon said.
Timedeath Overlord was the strongest of them all. Not even Mortheus could stand a chance against this existence. After all, Timedeath was the real definition of living fossil, a being who lived for billions of years now.
”For now, let's go back to our own nests. I heard that there is an incoming catastrophe that Immortal would face. It'd be a great idea to watch the show.” Blackdemon dismissed the group and left.
