478 Action 2 (1/2)
Chapter 478: Action 2
”I know that in previous years, the two other nations of the Royal Alliance have had their own gathering areas. Naturally, I am not here to raid your area.” Garen laughed. ”I heard that the Cthulhuism Society's master is planning to purchase glittering water. So happen I do have sufficient glittering water. The reason I came here is to make a deal with you. Your Cthulhu's Origin is something I have yearned for long.”
”A deal?” The ice-cold girl shuddered. ”I will convey your intentions to our master. You can go back to where you came from. Let me remind you of something. Kovitan's stronghold has already been invaded by an outsider.”
”I'll settle it by myself.” Garen nodded. Before the deal, he temporarily wouldn't take action against the Cthulhuism Society. It would be different after the deal was completed.
Before Hellgate's awakening, he had to do all he could to gather resources to upgrade himself. This was his final chance.
He stopped heading forwards and started walking around the level. He headed towards the direction of another stronghold.
One of the strongholds in this area was originally Kovitan's. Unfortunately, because of the huge changes to Kovitan some time ago, large amounts of manpower were recalled back. The stronghold was then occupied by some low-level forces from Kovitan until the incident with the red-robed man took place.
An unknown red-robed man attempted to seize control of a second level stronghold. He first challenged Daniela's stronghold. After being defeated by Gallo King who was on guard, he no longer dared to return. He next went to the Cthulhuism Society's territory. But his neck was almost snapped by the Earth God on guard. The Earth Guard was ranked in the top six in the Cthulhuism Society.
As his planned to become famous failed, the red-robed man helplessly headed towards Kovitan's stronghold. He released all his accumulated anger on Kovitan's totem users.
The man was unscrupulous. With his first tier escaping ability, he didn't care about the possibility of revenge by Kovitan's elites and instantly acted. The other forces who were observing at the sidelines were surprised.
The Kovitan compound was like paper paste, crumbling at one touch.
The red-robed man killed three of the men in charge in a row. He finally conquered the stronghold completely and chased everyone from Kovitan out of the stronghold.
Kovitan in its current divisive state no longer had the greatness when Avic was still alive. Their overall strength was even weaker than Edney. As they couldn't even manage their internal matters, troubles far away in Daniela shouldn't even be mentioned.
In the eyes of outsiders, Kovitan was like a sunset, no longer having the light and heat of a midday sun. The past greatness of this nation was no longer there. The strongest nation now was Daniela, while Edney was the second. Kovitan, with the Ultimate Protection, could barely be considered as the third. However, regarding their influence on the outside world, they were nothing once they stepped out of the Ultimate Protection.
As Garen arrived at the stronghold, the sun was only left with a small semi-circle on the horizon.
Kovitan's stronghold was a deserted white stone castle. The remnants of the great battle could be seen everywhere.
Some of the places were full of blood stains. A handful of totem users from Kovitan were fearfully looking from afar.
Whether it was the red-robed man or Garen, in their hearts they were both problems that could not be defeated. Garen destroyed his opponents in the country. He was incredibly cruel. Similarly, the red-robed man was strong. He did not blink when committing a murder. In the fight between two tigers, it all depends on who is stronger. Having said that, regardless of the winning side, there were no benefits for these imitation Royal Alliance totem users who previously occupied the stronghold.
Without hesitation, Garen took big steps into the castle compound.
It was quiet inside, without any human sounds.
Garen's clear footsteps echoed in the surroundings.
”You have finally come!” A cold voice came from within the castle.
The red-robed man stood on the peak of the castle. He folded his arms and looked at Garen proudly.
”I've studied totems for forty-two years. I couldn't find a suitable opponent on par with me after coming out from my training. I never thought you would come here by yourself.”
Garen was speechless. This was obviously another one seeking fame by challenging elites. He was similar to the guy whose heart was ripped out by the Angel of the Night. He looked reckless, but in actual fact, he must have done his preparations.
”What's your name?” Seeing that his opponent was a fourth form, Garen asked.
”Justin Edward!”
Never heard of it.
Garen searched the original history and couldn't find this person. Most likely he was a small character that was killed by one of the elites.
”Alright. You can leave.” Garen waved impatiently. He initially thought it was an important figure, a mysterious master. He never expected it to be a common person.
The red-robed man instantly widened his eyes.
”You dare to ask me to leave?! Don't think too highly of your Dasula School!! Even your teacher dared not speak to me this way!”
”Dasula?” Garen instantly thought of teacher Emin, the actual old totem user that taught him the basics.
