Chapter 905: Battlefields

The Land of Atonement.

Tragic traces of the past war during winter were completely buried as lush forests and green meadows covered the mountains and land. As the refugees moved into the territory, the tranquil city became lively and bustling. Puffs of white smoke from the forest not far away signified some form of life in the past uninhabited wasteland. This peaceful life was what the refugees sought for after the devastation of war. They wanted to get away from danger and reunite with their families in a safe environment.

But this place was destined to not be peaceful.

As the land of chaos was developed, there were several organizations casting their sights on this successful and magnificent city. Within half a month, the news of Grenbell’s overlord, Rhode Alander, opening up the land of chaos had spread throughout the Dragon Soul Continent. Of course, this garnered a lot of attention since no one had achieved this feat in centuries. Not to mention, his manpower was also incredible. The countries that were related to the Munn Kingdom were also concerned about the problems with the expansion of the territory and common boundaries.

In the eyes of outsiders, this was a mysterious place. Not only did the city resist the attack of the Undead Army, consisting of tens of thousands of units and even the Moon Princess, Erin, twice, they also went home with their tails between their legs. The city had secret technologies like the Holy Maiden Statues and there were also a powerful Mage and Cleric each who were on par with Erin. These mysterious factors surrounding Rhode made him outstanding and he actually opened up the land of chaos…

What’s something that he can’t do?

It was due to this reason that as the refugees moved into his city, many crooks mixed in with the honest folks and seized the opportunity and infiltrated, attempting to uncover his secrets while he wasn’t around. The crooks thought that Rhode would lead a whole group of elites away from the Land of Atonement and the remainder wouldn’t stand a chance against them. But… It wasn’t as easy as they thought.

Magical radiance flashed.

Dazzling, colorful arrays of beams descended from above and enveloped the fully-armored intruders. After a loud burst of thunder, the intruders were nowhere to be found. The charred vestiges on the ground were the only evidence that they were once here.

“Just them today?”

Canary hovered in midair casually. The magical radiance flickering on her hand gradually faded away. She puckered her brows and the surroundings returned to its peace. Ever since the news of Rhode opening up a new territory spread, there had been more and more invaders in the Land of Atonement. But these guys today…

How powerful.

Someone hid in the distant shadows, observing the young lady hovering in midair silently. The strong, pressurizing strength left it trembling in fear. It had never seen such pure powers in the Country of Darkness. It could remember only one person in the Country of Darkness who possessed such major powers.

Did I miscalculate the situation?

According to the intelligence, many members were eliminated and the strength of the defenders was clearly apparent. However, the men it currently had were the elites of the elites. Not only were they involved in countless battles, but they also possessed strength in the Legendary Stage. With such incredible strength, they should more or less gather some intelligence. But…

It only took an instant.

Before it witnessed what happened, its subordinates who were about to infiltrate the target point were completely annihilated. In the blink of an eye, the spiritual connection between it and its subordinates were cut off and this only meant one thing—its subordinates had entirely vanished from this world.

Fear.

This feeling of pure fear overwhelmed the sorrow of the mission’s failure. Even though this also concerned its future, there were no chances of winning against such a powerful opponent. It felt as though going up against the Dark Dragon—foolish and meaningless! Perhaps it was a mistake for it to be here in the first place. But even so, it must accomplish this mission. Although the plan failed… For some unknown reasons, it instinctively sensed grave dangers approaching.

Retreat. It is still possible to retreat. I must do it while I can.

“Found a sneaky little rat.”

The mastermind turned around hurriedly and unsheathed two daggers. The enemy appeared behind it, but he wasn’t notified at all. Didn’t the intelligence say…

“This is the end!”

Mini Bubble Gum clenched her tiny right fist and hurled at the intruder. At this moment, a scarlet magical radiance flashed and a sinister-looking undead ritual appeared before her. But Mini Bubble Gum wasn’t affected at all.

She fell into my trap!
