Chapter 360 - Chapter 360: 340 (2/2)
“Blazing Fire” Amos suddenly shouted angrily, “Words of Tranquility doesn’t care about these things, maybe they think the more people who die in this civil war, the better! After all, they do love soul sacrifices!”
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists in rage.
Aldrich shook his head at Amos, saying, “Originally, according to our initial plan, Amos should be breaking through to Monarch Level right now, but the current situation simply doesn’t allow us to spare anyone to help him.”
“If the enemy launches an attack while he’s breaking through, we’ll be in big trouble.”
Byrne glanced at Amos and suddenly said, “When we’re dealing with the Royal Family and enemies outside of Words of Tranquility, we must prioritize our own survival, do you understand?”
Everyone was startled and turned their gaze to Byrne.
Byrne smiled and continued, “I’ve dealt with Marquis Vlad before, and I’m sure many of you have had some contact with him as well. A person like him couldn’t possibly be completely loyal to the Adley Royal Family.”
“Currently, the Adley Royal Family’s overt strength is not great, and I absolutely don’t believe that Marquis Vlad has no ambition.”
“Besides Marquis Vlad, do you think the other great nobles have no thoughts of their own?”
He paused, then continued:
“Therefore, our enemies are not necessarily all enemies, and I think most of the great nobles also don’t have the idea of fighting us to the death…”
In the end, this is a civil war, not a war against external forces.
Moreover, the political system of Cyart means that the Royal Family is just the strongest among many great nobles, naturally not possessing such high power of governance.
After listening to Byrne Fischer’s words, everyone except Aldrich fell into deep thought. Marquis Vlad, the “Volcano Dragon,” and Marquis Samuel, the “White Spirit,” could also be persuaded!
“The situation really is quite chaotic right now,” Ariel remarked.
Byrne bowed his head in silence, then looked up to the north.
“They should already know that we’ve come here…”
“I hope nothing goes wrong over there.”
He took a deep breath as if the more he thought this way, the more likely something would go wrong.
——
East Coast Province.
In the vast expanse of sky, a Monarch powerful expert soared with flame as wings, the color of the flames changing from deep red to golden yellow, as resplendent as a phoenix rising from the ashes, his silhouette particularly striking in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Marquis Vlad was clad in a black alchemy battle robe made of special material that shimmered with a fiery luster in the light of the flames. Every fiber seemed to be ignited by fire, emitting waves of heat that commanded awe.
His face was resolute, and his eyes flickered with ambition and malice. As he waved his wings of flame, the surrounding air ignited, forming a sea of fire in the sky.
“Nasir City should have no Monarch powerful experts now…”
At last, Marquis Vlad had Nasir City in sight!
From his view in the sky, Nasir City looked like a delicate miniature painting, fully displayed before his eyes.
In the afterglow of the sunset, he descended swiftly from the sky like a burning meteor streaking across the horizon, the giant flaming wings behind him gradually dissipating into wisps of light smoke in the air.
“Boom!”
When he landed, the ground beneath his feet felt the immense force, shaking violently!
Marquis Vlad lightly stepped onto the ground of Nasir City, each step as if leaving behind the residual warmth of flames, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
The city’s barrier of Nasir City rose quickly!
However, Marquis Vlad just looked at the scene coldly, without the slightest hint of nervousness or fear in his heart.
Without a Monarch powerful expert here, what use then was a city’s barrier?
As a mid-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponent, he alone had the power to burn this city to the ground, to ash!
“Although setting fire to the city would deeply offend the members of the church, once I become the king of Cyart, such trivial matters will be of no consequence!”
Just as Byrne thought, Marquis Vlad was not wholeheartedly loyal to the Adley Royal Family; he had long instructed his family and the “Fog Wayfarer” family to conserve their strength during this suppression war.
He hoped to slowly weaken the forces of both sides by maintaining a balance.
Now, coming to eradicate the Fischer family was also a part of Marquis Vlad’s plan to balance the power of both sides.
The next moment, the air around him seemed to ignite, forming a blazing halo of red light that gradually spread, enveloping his figure within it. Marquis Vlad was like a deity walking out of the flames.
“Fishermen of the East Coast! Usurpers! Let me burn down your lair!”
