In the end, Luca couldn't escape his misfortune. Under the effect of the 'Spirit Fading Powder', he couldn't exert any of his energy. His divine energy was devoured by several highgods of death.
Once Luca was dead, the remaining survivors were also killed. Just as Polo had said, not a single one was spared!
The Godslayer Powder played a huge role in this battle. Many of Luca's followers were unknowingly infected by the Godslayer Powder. By the time they realized that something was amiss, their fates were already sealed. They were powerless to resist and were devoured by the godhunters one after another.
After the battle ended, Polo's godhunter subordinates took out some blue powder and smeared it on the wounds of the dead. In no time at all, the corpses were corroded into puddles of blood, leaving not a single trace behind.
Polo was very pleased with himself. He smilingly explained to Gilbert, Han Hao, and Han Hao, "Haha, it's all thanks to the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy's special medicines.
Bollands glanced at the corroded corpses, nodded indifferently, and said, "We would like to meet Han Hao."
"Chief isn't in this direction. It won't be convenient for you to meet him for the time being. But since you are going to the Omphalos, you will have the opportunity to meet him." From Little Skull's order, Polo learned that Gilbert and his party were indeed from the Han family. Therefore, Polo appeared very friendly.
"Alright then. Thank you for today's matter." Bollands did not insist and thanked him indifferently.
"You're welcome. Hehe, we're all family. Don't stand on ceremony." Polo knew very well the relationship between Han Hao and the Han family. He had subconsciously regarded himself as a peripheral member of the Han family. Therefore, he did not dare to claim credit in front of Bollands, Han Hao, and Han Hao.
"Anyway, thank you. We will be heading to the Omphalos next. But this time, we will be more careful. There shouldn't be any problems." Bollands thought for a moment, looked at Gilbert and Sanguinar, and said, "Let's continue!"
Sanguinar and Gilbert responded and led the remaining thirty members of the Han family away from Polo's side. They did not exchange too many pleasantries with Polo.
After a long while, Bollands bunched his brows and said, "They are godhunters after all. The Han family cannot have too deep of a relationship with the godhunters. Otherwise, it will affect the Han family's business in other Dominions."
Sanguinar nodded in agreement with Bollands's words. "Yes, Master must have noticed this problem as well. That's why he hasn't admitted to his relationship with Han Hao. I think it's to avoid being talked about by others."
…
Sanguinar, Bollands, and Gilbert continued their journey to the Omphalos. Han Shuo, however, was still watching over them. For several days, Han Shuo noticed that Sanguinar, Han Shuo, and Han Hao did not return to the Omphalos and Han Shuo. Han Shuo began to worry that they might be in danger.
Within a certain range, Han Shuo could sense the general location of Sanguinar, Gilbert, and Bollands. But if they were too far away from Han Shuo, Han Shuo would not be able to sense them. And now, the distance between Sanguinar, Gilbert, and Han Shuo was far beyond what Han Shuo could sense.
Although Han Shuo believed in the strength of Bollands, Sanguinar, and Gilbert, he was still in the Fringe. Not a single fiend from the Twelve Dominions was to be trifled with. The Fringe was a place of constant warfare and bloodthirsty experts. Even for Sanguinar, Bollands, and Han Shuo would be in danger.
Two days later, when Han Shuo discovered that Bollands, Gilbert, and Han Shuo had yet to return, he started to feel a little anxious.
Just as he was about to do something, he suddenly received a signal. With one thought, a demon general flew out and landed on the northwest side of the army. The demon general assumed the appearance of Han Shuo. He looked at a godhunter prostrating on the ground and asked, "What's the matter?"
This Little Skull, Han Hao's confidant, did not say a word. He respectfully took out a scroll and handed it to Han Shuo. After reading the scroll, Han Shuo immediately understood what had happened to Sanguinar, Gilbert, and Han Shuo. After reading the contents of the scroll, Han Shuo incinerated it and the demon general vanished.
In the middle of the Han family army, Han Shuo bunched his brows and mumbled to himself, "Did that Luca guy act on his own or did he act on Logue's orders?"
… …
The Fringe, Boneyard. White bones were scattered all over the place. Some wraiths wandered aimlessly around the Boneyard.
The dense element of death lingered in the Boneyard like a faint mist. Those who cultivated in the energy of death would be able to make rapid progress in this place. They would also be able to exert their strength to the fullest.
In the Boneyard, there was a castle built purely from white bones. Logue, one of the Five Sovereigns, lived in that eerie white castle.
At this moment, Logue was sitting on an enormous throne of bones with a sinister face, listening to the report of one of his subordinates.
"Luca has gone missing. There's no news of him at all. We couldn't even find a trace of him in the area where he was active," reported the burly man who cultivated in the energy of death to Logue on one knee.
"Luca must have been killed," Logue coldly groaned. Roger's face was gloomy. He snorted coldly and sat up straight, saying, "Those brats are definitely not Luca's match. There must be someone else involved! Brian is getting more and more out of hand. It seems that we have to take action soon! "
"My Lord, ever since this man came to the Fringe, many rules have been broken. We can't let this go on. The Han family is getting more and more arrogant. Many outsiders have joined the Han family. The Han family's strength increases every other day. The longer this drags on, the harder it will be to deal with them, "said the burly man solemnly.
Logue coldly groaned again, waved his hand, and said, "You may leave. I have my own plans."
As soon as the burly man left, Logue immediately put on a friendly smile. He raised his head to look at the sky above Boneyard and said, "I have been waiting for you for a while."
Tyre, the most powerful Sovereign in the Fringe, appeared in front of Logue. Before Logue could speak, Tyre immediately said in a solemn tone, "Don't rush to deal with Bryan for the time being. I have received reliable information that the Hegemons of the Godhunter Dominions are gathering in the Fringe using all kinds of excuses. This time, unlike before, there are already seven Hegemons in action!"
"What?!" Logue's face jolted. He cried out in surprise, "The twelve Hegemons of the Godhunter Alliance have never been united. Otherwise, the Fringe would have long been destroyed. Why are they so united this time? What's going on? "
"I heard that Brian has wiped out the strongholds of the Godhunter Alliance in the Darkness and Death Dominions. Those two Hegemons believe that his existence has seriously threatened the existence of the Godhunter Alliance. They want to eliminate Brian and the Han family at all costs. And it just so happens that the Han family is currently in the Fringe. Everything makes sense now," said Tyre bitterly.
"It's him again!" Logue was enraged. He abruptly stood up and said, "Ever since this man came to the Fringe, he has been causing trouble for us. And now, because of him, the Hegemons of the Godhunter Alliance have united. This man is a scourge that must be eliminated as soon as possible!"
"There's no rush for now. Let's think of a way to deal with the Godhunter Alliance first," said Tyre as he shook his head. Tyre shook his head and looked at Logue, who did not conceal his killing intent in the slightest, and said, "I know you want him dead, and so do I. But the timing isn't right. Even if we attack Brian now, even if we kill him, the Godhunter Alliance will not spare the Fringe. If we and Brian are both heavily injured, the gains will not make up for the losses! "
Logue's beady eyes glinted with maliciousness. He rolled his eyes for a while before he suddenly nodded and said smilingly, "I have an idea. We can promote him and let him lead the fight against the Godhunter Alliance. Hehe, no matter what happens, he will use his strength to fight against the Godhunter Alliance. If he is killed by the Godhunter Alliance, that will be for the best. But if both sides are heavily injured, the two of us will join forces to kill him. No matter what, we can't let him live! "
"That's a good idea!" Tyre chuckled mischievously. He rolled his eyes and said, "But do you really think that Brian and his people can deal with the Godhunter Alliance?"
"Don't we still have Wasis and Ossora?" Logue put on a sinister smile and said, "All we have to do is to let the three of them take the vanguard first. As long as they and the Godhunter Alliance take the lead, we will have plenty of opportunities later on. Hehe, if all three of them are dead, the Fringe will be ours to rule! "
"It seems that my trip here wasn't in vain," Tyre kept silent for a moment before he suddenly laughed heartily.
"Let's have a good discussion. With our spies and connections in the Fringe, we will surely be able to let the three of them take the lead." Logue put on a sinister smile and continued, "Whether it's Brian, Ossora, or Wasis, aren't they all trying to replace you? Tyre, as long as the two of us handle this operation against the Godhunter Alliance, we'll split the east and west sides of the Fringe! "
"Let's have a good discussion …" Tyre lowered his voice and discussed some details with Logue in a low voice.
A day later, Tyre left Osteoburg with a smile on his face. He deployed layers of barriers in the dark and opened a magical mirror.
The magical mirror distorted and gradually revealed a face that Han Shuo was familiar with — Dhaka, one of the Hegemons of the Godhunter Alliance!
"Big Brother, this is what happened …" Tyre's expression relaxed as he recounted the details of his discussion with Logue in front of the magical mirror.
Dhaka nodded repeatedly in the magical mirror. After a while, he smiled and said, "After this battle, I will be in control of the Godhunter Alliance and you will truly be in control of the Fringe. When that happens, we brothers will work together to break through Aethernia and snatch the Quintessence!"
"Haha, Logue, Logue, don't blame me for killing you first!" Tyre laughed heartily.
