117 Silent Massacre (1/2)
While the people were busy dealing with the crawlers and stabilizing the situation of the Capital, no one knew that at this one, there was a small petite figure flying above them.
”Hmmmm... so, this is what the Human Domain looks like... doesn't seem much.” Lilith tilted her head with one finger on her cheek and pondered thoughtfully as she stared at the structure of Capital.
”It is still better than our low-rank beast tribe, but nothing compared to the others. The mid-rank and high-rank beast tribes were much more impressive than this...”
In her tribe, the higher-ranking humanoid beasts all reside in straw huts, while the lower rank beasts rest in trees, caves, dug up holes or simply on the open plains. As for mid-rank beast tribes and higher, they have transformed into large cities much grander and majestic than the human city she was seeing.
There were no lower rank beasts among the mid-rank tribes and higher. All the beastkins of these higher rank tribes were born of humanoid figures, while the highest-ranking ones were practically no different to humans.
The only difference was they have inherited the strongest bloodline of their ancestors and were basically perfected existences that carried the culmination of both races, the best of both worlds.
In the Wildlands, many beast tribes existed, both large and small. Lilith belonged to a low-rank beast tribe, the Skysilver Tribe. Skysilver was both name and title of the of the Skysilver Tribe's Transcendent-level beast king.
The Skysilver tribe occupied the easternmost lands and had always been the only tribe confronting the Human Domain in all these years.
Looking at the state of the human capital below, Lilith was both amused and apathetic, with traces of tear stains still present on the rims of her starry eyes.
Even before the devastation of the Lower District, the contrast between the Upper District and the Lower District of the human capital had been very great.
But seeing the state it was in now...
”Heaven and hell are worlds aparts, but here you can find both of them in one spot...”
Lilith said, before shaking her head. She was being distracted.
Her lovable expression turned serious in the next moment. ”These ugly things must be reason for his majesty's displeasure.”
Although she felt repulsed by such vulgar creatures, she continued to observe the situation from the night sky.
...
With the black smoke cover gone, the four great families were finally able to see the situation of the Capital.
”Sir Zagan... it seems our great plan has failed. Should... should we take this chance to retreat, while they are still busy?”
One of the lords said with some regrets and fear. Once the crawler crisis was settled, there no doubt that the royal family would send people after them.
They must have been fools to think they stood a chance against the royal family. Each palace guard was as powerful as them, if not stronger. Wasn't this like an ant pitting itself against an elephant? It was ludicrous.
When sir Zagan heard the cowardly undertone, the edge of his mouth raised into a smirk filled with disdain, but since he stood at the front, no one could see his expression.
”You can all leave if you want. I am staying for one more event.” Sir Zagan said nonchalantly.
In any case, these people had outlived their usefulness. They could only serve as cannon fodders for his goal in the upcoming battle if they stayed. Thus, he no longer placed any importance on their opinions.
He continued to watch the Capital with anticipation. Despite being rooted in the exact spot for half a night, He had not grown tired of watching and his interest had never waned. It was as if he would never get bored watching the world burn.
”This...”
The lords were hesitant. Although they believe sir Zagan was powerful. He was after all just one person. Could he fight off an entire army of experts?
”Inform the members to pack up their things and prepare to retreat at any time.” Lord Esmond ordered.
Ultimately, they decided to leave. In their minds, the Capital has already taken control of the battle. What else could happen?
”Yes, Lord Esmond.” A servant complied. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
Lady Harriet and Lord Grey also sent their servants off to make their preparations for leave. Only the Weld family did nothing as they did not carry much items with them.
There was only three people left in the Weld family. Lord Weld, Cayden and their steward, whom wore a retarded look that was beyond his bodily control.
