Chapter 398 - Chapter 398: Chapter 378: Near Total Destruction! (2/2)
“I heard that behind Carnia, there is the support of the Seven Stars Empire, is that so?”
Byrne’s voice grew deeper.
“Indeed, the rumors are not mistaken,”
Prince Konrad paused, then continued, “I also heard that you seemed to have dealings with the Lorne citizens, but that doesn’t affect our transaction!”
“You have to understand something, His Excellency Byrne, those powerful empires, oh, they are just assemblies of human-faced beasts, whereas we, Carnia and Cyart, being small nations sandwiched in between, naturally need to band together to survive!”
“Even the weak need to survive!”
Byrne calmly nodded and said:
“That makes some sense.”
Prince Konrad’s face returned to normal, he took a deep breath, and asked with great respect:
“His Excellency Byrne, may we leave now?”
Byrne nodded gently and calmly, watching him.
“Alright, you may go…”
“I’ll see you out.”
He spoke with unusual calm but then abruptly, without any warning, swung his hand, and the invisible slash instantly bisected Prince Konrad and the lady in purple.
Both of their faces registered immense shock.
“Why?”
Prince Konrad couldn’t understand why the other party would suddenly forsake the alliance, even at the risk of breaking the oath.
Then, intense fear struck him, he had no more spiritual power left to restore himself, and he could only wait for death to fully arrive.
While the lady in purple was still wailing, trying to restore her life force, Byrne immediately reached out his hand toward her, forming a grasp from a distance, and crushed her body.
“Bang!”
Both were dead.
Whether it was Carnia or the Seven Stars Empire, they would sooner or later plot against Cyart, and the Lorne citizens would also not wish to be seen colluding with the Carnian Royal Family… Meanwhile, Byrne was also pleased with his own action.
That was the deepest desire of his heart that was always approachable and well-learned.
No more considering those intricate intricacies and scheming!
Kill!
Suddenly, he realized something important, the Treasure class Mysterious rare artifact that maintained his flight, named “Sky Suspender,” a blue ring, was about to run out of time.
“Sky Suspender” is a Mysterious rare artifact collected by Byrne in the last ten years, which completely compensated for his biggest flaw of not being able to fly.
Deep down, Byrne even often felt that its strategic value was not inferior to some Forbidden rare artifacts, the only pity being that it could not sustain flight indefinitely.
Chris in the sky had never stopped, always launching attacks on the Black Starlight in its shadowy form.
The giant white shinbone in his hand, now seemed like a short sword as white as jade, each attack emitting a strong scent of the deceased.
Ordinary Extraordinary Exponents struck by the shinbone, full of the scent of the deceased, would die instantly.
But it only just managed to suppress the Black Starlight from fully recovering.
However, the evil entity’s form was unclear, as if made from countless twisted shadows and despairing wails intertwined, even as it was constantly attacked, it still wasn’t destroyed.
Next moment, Bryne kept trying various methods, attempting to completely destroy the Black Starlight.
Byrne in his current state could observe everything more clearly, he was sure that the Black Starlight was not human, and might not even belong to the material world.
After a long struggle, if it weren’t for the essence of the white shinbone suppressing it, the Black Starlight could likely have recovered fully in a short time.
That shadowy entity was finally erased from the material world by Byrne and Chris working together.
Byrne immediately said:
“Chris, let’s quickly go help Aldrich and Zayne, they haven’t determined a victor on their side, but I feel… the Wordless Elder has gained the upper hand.”
Just after speaking, Byrne suddenly felt an unprecedented weakness.
It was as if a mighty push from the stream of time had stricken him, his body and mental state rapidly declined, showing an unprecedented old age and weakness, his deep eyes losing all brightness, replaced by faint confusion and fatigue, his face filled with wrinkles, and his hair turned utterly white.
Byrne fell from the sky.
