Chapter 453: Chapter 429: 6th Rank “Mad Lich

In the Snow Mountain.

“Awake?”

When Yeager woke up, he felt as if his soul had been torn apart, his whole body trembling, and the first thing he saw was Darren’s frosty face.

His heart skipped a beat, but he quickly smiled.

“Lord Darren, I truly thank you for saving me. Just now, without your protection, I would have surely died thoroughly.”

Darren only snorted coldly after hearing this. Although he had tried his best to protect Yeager just now, his expression was still cold and merciless as he shook his head and said,

“You took matters into your own hands and nearly got both Chris and me killed. This is a grave matter, so listen well, Yeager: the Fischer family must punish you.”

“I understand.”

Yeager took a deep breath and nodded slightly.

He then took out a black smoking pipe and said,

“This alchemical tool of mine is actually a treasure from the Spirit Realm, found in the same place as the Forbidden knowledge used to subdue demons. Viscount Bast lacked the strength to obtain it initially.”

Yeager revealed a smile, continuing to toy with the smoking pipe in his hand.

“A very good result—I used it to absorb some of the power of the Abyssal Flame Demon, hmm, roughly giving me three opportunities to unleash an attack equivalent to a high-level Monarch extraordinary attack… Unfortunately, there are only three chances.”

“If I could have absorbed it for a longer period, there would have been more opportunities.” His voice was filled with regret and disappointment.

The benefits from this adventure were substantial, and Yeager had long been prepared to face punishment.

However, Darren’s next words made him stunned.

“However, Yeager, only a few of us need to know about this, and your punishment does not need to go through a family meeting. When you return, I will arrange the most arduous tasks for you.”

Yeager smiled faintly, fully sensing the stark difference between Darren and Felix who were men of order.

He appeared to abide by order and rules, knowing that he must not let people act recklessly, but in reality, he valued feelings more.

Indeed.

How could a guy inherently crazy be a law-abiding person?

After Darren finished speaking, he first went to get the two Forbidden rare artifacts in hand, rested for a while, and then used his dragon form to retrieve the discarded Extraordinary material “Corner of the Pitch Black Object”.

Then, he and Yeager quickly left Rhea, arriving at the predetermined border area belonging to Cyart, in the forest where everything began.

Soon, the two saw Chris returning from Rhea as well.

His gaze was as cold as frost, and it was not just a simple return from Rhea—he was also carrying three fresh Forbidden rare artifacts.

Clearly, the two Monarch powerful experts who had pursued him were now thoroughly dead, and the Forbidden rare artifacts had also been taken by Chris.

“A bit quicker than we thought, Uncle Chris…”

Darren looked at Chris, who was expressionless, knowing that now he had killed both a mid-level Monarch extraordinary exponent and a low-level Monarch extraordinary exponent with no real danger involved, although it indeed required his full effort.

“Besides acquiring extraordinary materials, we have also killed so many key figures, both the emperor of Rhea and the Salvation Church will not miss the chance to make a big deal out of this event.”

Saying this, Darren’s face gradually revealed a fanatical smile.

“So the hypocritical peace will be thoroughly torn apart, and war will soon follow.”

Immediately after, Yeager analyzed aloud, “Among the Eastern Four Kingdoms, Vallere and us are openly supported by the Lorne Empire, while Rhea and Carnia are in league with the Seven Stars Empire.”

“Within the True Gods Church, it’s certain that the Tempest Church stands with us, but as for the Reforging Church and the Salvation Church, they’re likely to support the countries of Rhea and Carnia.”

“As for the stance of the other three churches, it’s still unclear, ambiguous.”

Chris simply listened silently to their conversation, and Darren nodded, continuing,

“With our current power, although we’re still not a true player on a global stage, we’re certainly no mere pawns… At least in the upcoming war, we’ll prove it to many people!”
