Chapter 206: Going to help who, eh? (b) (1/2)

After conversing for a while, they decided to join hands and get rid of the serpentine devils.

An enemy of my enemy was a friend—there was no lie in it, after all!

Julian, Tia, and the others were surprised to see that the people who were so against believing them had completely changed their faces. The ones who were going after each other, lashing out at each other, were now standing side by side.

”Let's use all our strength to break the barrier. Nothing must happen to Elliot—he has the potential to reach the level of the four emperors.”

Jack Turner stepped out of the interrogation room with the others. All of them were enthusiastic, and they couldn't wait to immediately open a hole in the barrier and enter the ancient civilization to deal with the serpentine devil and do everything in their power to get Elliot out of that place, alive and unharmed.

Why?

It's all because of his supernatural power and his overwhelming potential.

Elliot was the only one in recent years to show the potential of an Emperor. Each of them had established their name by performing a legendary act, one comparable to the Gods and warriors of Greek mythology. Elliot had done it too, and his performance surpassed his predecessor!

If they carefully nurture him and he realizes his potential, the human race would gain another emperor. With five emperors at the helm, they would be able to expand further, invade the beasts' kingdoms and gain more footing in Xavier. More footing meant an increase in resources, and the more land they cover, the more ancient settlement they would come across! Who knows? Maybe further exploring the land would lead to the entrance of many other ancient settlements!

Not to mention, if any of the two sides managed to rope him in their side, the balance would immediately break! Both sides wanted that to happen so that they could emerge as the victor! So, one can determine that Elliot's existence held extreme value in their hearts. Furthermore, according to them, his master was Mr. Joker, a man of great knowledge but unknown strength. However, they believed him to be extremely strong. Gaining Elliot was the same as gaining him.

Due to all of the reasons above, nearly everyone here wanted to make sure that he would not die.

They immediately ran towards the ancient settlement. The interrogation room wasn't far away from it.

They had established a temporary base on the foot and cliff of a mountain near the barrier. So, it took them mere minutes to reach the barrier. The crowd gathered around it heard an announcement and immediately moved away from the barrier.
