A few days later, Phoebe, Statholme, and the others gathered together. They were all wearing ugly expressions as they tried to suppress the anger in their hearts.
The people who were sent out to deliver the news returned one after another, but none of them brought back good news. Carmelita was still in seclusion, and the news could not reach her. Andre had gone to Blackwater City ten days ago and had yet to return.
As for Erebus and Aobashi, they had been dispatched by City Lord Wallace on a secret mission somewhere. It was hard to say if they were still in the City of Shadows. Naturally, the Han family members who were sent to deliver the news did not even see the shadows of the two.
Carmelita, Andre, Erebus, and Aobashi, the four people who were closest to the House of Han, had disappeared without a trace as if they had agreed to meet at such a sensitive time. This caused Phoebe and the others to feel gloomy, not knowing what they should do.
"It can't be that coincidental. There is no way that Carmelita, Andre, Erebus, and Aobashi would all vanish at such a crucial time. Of all times, it would happen right after Larikson entered Hushveil City!" Phoebe gnashed her teeth and said angrily, "Back when Brian was in the City of Shadows, he was very close to those four. If not for Brian's help, Carmelita and Erebus would not have survived until now. Who would have thought that they would be so heartless!"
"Perhaps this wasn't their intention …" Statholme the old monster explained with a gloomy face, "There is one person who could have sent all four of them away and prevented them from receiving our message for the time being!"
"Wallace …" Ayermike called out in a deep and meaningful tone.
Statholme the old monster nodded and said, "He is the only person who could send Erebus, Aobashi, and Andre away at the same time! He could also force Carmelita into seclusion. This person is the most powerful person in the City of Shadows. He is the only person in the entire City who could do such a thing! "
"Yes. Given Brian's relationship with those four, they definitely wouldn't sit idly by after receiving our message. Wallace definitely had something to do with the current situation! It looks like even though Wallace isn't going to do anything to us, he's planning on killing us with a borrowed knife! "Ayermike Cotton said hatefully.
"We should have left the City of Shadows long ago. That guy is obviously someone who would burn bridges after crossing the river. That's what happened to the House of Lavers!" Gilbert shouted loudly, "In my opinion, we should just fight with that despicable person first. I hate this kind of person who plays dirty behind the scenes the most!"
"No!" Statholme shook his head and said, "Larikson and Hofs are already too much for us to handle. Even if we know that Wallace is behind all this, we can't show it now. Hmm, let's wait for Brian's news. We can't even protect ourselves now, so we can't make another strong enemy! "
"Then what should we do?" Gilbert sighed, his face full of frustration.
"Let's hold on for now. Don't worry, I have already contacted a few major family clans in the Death and Destruction Dominions. Although Wallace wants us dead, our business partners don't want to see anything happen to us. They have already sent their men to Fort Lasberg. As long as we can hold on until reinforcements arrive, we will be able to leave the City of Shadows! "Emily forced a smile and consoled.
Over the years, the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy had cooperated with some family clans in the Death and Destruction Dominions. They had set up shops in the Death and Destruction Dominions. As the medicinal pellets refined by Han Shuo were extremely miraculous, those family clans had earned a large amount of black crystal coins. To those family clans, as long as Han Shuo was alive, they were more than happy to continue working with the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy.
Therefore, when Emily informed them of their predicament, those family clans immediately announced that they would send their men to the City of Shadows in the Darkness Dominion to help them leave Fort Lasberg.
"That's great news!" Statholme the old monster nodded gratifyingly and said, "Then we should start preparing. Since Wallace wants to kill us with a borrowed knife, we really can't stay in the City of Shadows any longer. Right, let's move our assets and materials out of the City of Shadows as soon as possible and get ready to leave Fort Lasberg. "
"Before our allies arrive, we will have to stay in Fort Lasberg and defend against them using the formations in the Fort. Don't worry, His Lordship has spent a lot of time and effort setting up the Fort. Even if those fellows come, they won't be able to break in! "Bollands the old assassin said in a cold voice.
"Then let's prepare to fight with all our might!" Sanguinar's eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that he was ready to start a massacre.
For the next few days, Fort Lasberg was bustling with activity. Under the management of the Han family, energy towers and cannons were installed in every corner of the Fort. The once barren Fort had now become a famous dangerous place in the City of Shadows. All kinds of deadly boundaries and seals were installed everywhere.
With the support of large amounts of black crystal coins and energy crystals, Fort Lasberg now had many terrifying weapons of mass destruction. It had the most elite divine guards in the City of Shadows, the Fifth Corps, Sanguinar, Bollands, and other ruthless and merciless experts whose strength had improved by leaps and bounds.
The entire Fort Lasberg was bustling with activity after orders were issued. Silhouettes could be seen at all the gates of the Fort. Energy crystal cannons that glowed with bright light were pushed to the gates and coldly aimed at the vast wilderness, waiting for the enemy to invade.
… …
Deep in a dense forest a thousand miles away from Fort Lasberg, the Chief of Second Corps, Ralph, was lying in ambush like a viper. Behind him were the Second Corps divine guards who were once defeated by the Fifth Corps. They wore ice-cold expressions as they silently listened to Ralph's orders.
"You should all know why we are here. We are not the ones who will be taking action. But once the battle begins, we will be responsible for taking care of those who have slipped through the net. The Han family's actions have seriously threatened the interests of the House of Sainte. Aobashi, Erebus, and the others have been bewitched by Brian and will not attack them. We are the only ones who can take care of this mission. "
Ralph's face was cold and sinister. He looked at his subordinates who were glinting with ferocious gazes and said, "The Han family may seem to be keeping a low profile all these years but they are in fact very close to some family clans in the Death and Destruction Dominions. They have established branches of Celestial Pearl Pharmacy in the Death and Destruction Dominions. They are getting stronger and stronger. If we don't eliminate them now, we won't have another chance in the future!"
"Don't worry, my Lord. The existence of the Fifth Corps has seriously threatened the survival of our Second Corps. Regardless of the reason, we will annihilate the Fifth Corps and the Han family from the City of Shadows!" Said one of the subordinates in a sinister face. After taking a short pause, he hesitated for a moment before he continued, "But that Brian is nowhere to be found. He is so powerful. If one day he learns of what we have done, wouldn't it be inappropriate?"
Many people's faces jolted at the mention of Han Shuo. Although Han Shuo was not in the City of Shadows for the past few years, those in the City of Shadows could not forget what he had done. In their hearts, Han Shuo was an expert second only to City Lord Wallace. As long as Han Shuo was alive, he would always be a threat to them.
Ralph's face turned cold and he said, "What are we afraid of? The City Lord is the most powerful existence in the City of Shadows. Even if he learns of what we have done, the City Lord will protect us! Don't worry, no matter what happens, the City Lord will take care of it for us! "
Although the subordinates were still apprehensive after hearing Ralph's words, they did not say anything else. They all knew Ralph's temperament and knew that there was a grudge between Ralph and Han Shuo. They did not dare to make Ralph unhappy at this critical moment.
The group of Second Corps divine guards led by Ralph were secretly hiding in a secluded corner of Fort Lasberg. As soon as they heard the cannons from Fort Lasberg, they would immediately disperse and annihilate any member of the Han family that walked out of Fort Lasberg.
… …
In another direction, Larikson and Hofs were stealthily approaching Fort Lasberg with several groups of troops. Although the experts of Hofs' family clan had suffered significant losses, he was, after all, the City Lord of Hushveil City. Many outsiders would be more than happy to submit to him. After a period of replenishment, Hofs had regained some of his strength.
Larikson's face was cold and gloomy. He could not stop thinking about revenge. The tragic scene of his son's death haunted his mind day and night, torturing him day and night, making him restless and restless.
Brian, the Han family, the House of Lavers, and Donna, all of you deserve to die! thought Larikson as he gnashed his teeth.
When the news of Larikson's son's death spread in the City of Gorging Clouds, Donna immediately guessed that the murderer must be Han Shuo as Han Shuo had sought her out. Fearing that Larikson would vent his anger on her after finding out the truth, Donna told her father about the incident that very night. Field immediately made up his mind to escape from the City of Gorging Clouds while Larikson was frantically searching for the murderer.
After Larikson found out about the incident, he pursued Field with all his might. But as Field managed to escape in time, Larikson did not manage to annihilate the House of Lavers. Since then, the House of Lavers had vanished from the Death, Darkness, and Destruction Dominions. No matter how hard Larikson searched, he could not find anyone from the House of Lavers.
The House of Lavers, Donna, Han Shuo, and the Han family had become a deep-seated hatred that Larikson could never let go of. He could not find the House of Lavers or Han Shuo. Therefore, he decided to target the Han family of Fort Lasberg. He was going to start with the Han family.
Half a month later, a group of Avengers led by Larikson, Hofs, and Larikson arrived at Fort Lasberg from Hushveil City. They did not waste any time and immediately launched a fierce attack. They intended to flatten Fort Lasberg with overwhelming force.
