Explosions sounded ceaselessly, the tremors getting stronger.
All the buildings in Ring City flew into the air. Then, the ground began to collapse. It was as if a demon hiding underground had opened its mouth and swallowed the entire city.
Song Shi widened her eyes.
Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
Her mouth was wide enough to swallow a duck egg.
What happened?
Ring City was right before her eyes, why was it gone?
It was right there a moment ago!
It was so big, how did it disappear in an instant?
The messy thoughts made Song Shi's head dizzy. She didn't care that Kieran was grabbing her by the neck and sprinting forward.
She even hoped that Kieran would be faster.
Because …
The explosions were still going on!
Song Shi was the lucky one, Kieran was prepared and brought her along.
The monsters in Ring City, however, weren't as lucky.
Most of the monsters didn't even know what happened before they were blasted to pieces.
Some of the stronger ones were heavily injured, groaning in pain in the ruins.
Some of the stronger ones weren't injured but they were dumbfounded.
'Who am I?
Where am I?
Why am I home but why is my home gone?
And …
Why is it so smelly? '
Looking at the ruins of their home and smelling the stench, the confusion on the powerful monsters was replaced by rage. Their eyes turned red and they roared.
"Who is it?!
Who is it?!
Come out! "
This kind of roar traveled along the ground to an extremely far place.
Kieran faintly heard them.
But he didn't care.
He ran even faster.
His Intuition picked up two terrifying auras rising up from Ring City's King City.
King Reow!
King Qi!
The two kings were standing in the middle of King City.
King Qi was on the left. She wore a luxurious black and gold dress and a golden crown on her head. Some scales flickered on her cheeks, giving off a faint luster. Her already beautiful face now gave off a faint sense of charm.
King Reow was on the right. He was also wearing a black and gold long dress but his sleeves were longer. Beside his golden crown was a small feather that looked like a peacock. Unlike King Qi's charm, King Reow was more noble and dignified. Just by standing there, one would have the urge to worship him.
Different crowns represented the same identity of a king.
The two kings no longer sat on their thrones.
There were no more shadows to hide them.
This was because in the explosion just now, King City had also been affected. A corner of the King's Palace had collapsed, and after losing this corner, the power of the continuous array was greatly reduced.
Not only in terms of defense, but also in terms of perception, which had been reduced to an unprecedented level.
The moment the explosion occurred, the two monarchs noticed that something was wrong.
However, they couldn't stop it in time.
King Qi was isolating the teleportation energy, unable to divert his attention. Even if he sensed the explosion, he couldn't do anything about it.
King Reow, on the other hand, was testing the waters by targeting Scarlet and Viktor, especially Scarlet, who attracted most of King Reow's attention. When King Reow realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
The two monarchs stood quietly in King City, watching the city that they had built for a hundred years turned into ruins. Their faces were pale and their eyes were overflowing with killer intents.
Ring City's importance to them was self-explanatory.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed here all this time and even built a city.
And now?
Everything was ruined!
Not all their efforts were wasted, but all their efforts were in vain.
"Search!
"Find that bastard for me!"
I want him to regret coming to this world! "
King Reow shouted fiercely.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Groups of royal guards dashed out of King City like hungry wolves and tigers.
They followed their instincts and searched for suspicious monsters one after another.
At this point, they didn't need any evidence anymore.
The slightest resistance would result in death without mercy.
More agonizing screams came from the ruins. King Reow turned around without showing any reaction, looking at Scarlet and Viktor.
"Your Majesty, I was with you all this while!
I would never do something like this! "
Scarlet said right away when it caught King Reow's cold gaze.
It knew it had to say it.
Otherwise, this fellow in front of it, who was about to go crazy from anger, might very well kill it right away.
After all, King Reow had been holding grudges against it for a long time.
Scarlet knew what was going on, so it lowered its stance even more.
Viktor calmly bowed at King Reow's gaze.
"I'm sorry about what happened to Ring City.
"I never thought something like this would happen."
Viktor's voice was as calm as his manners.
However, deep in his heart, there were raging waves.
Who?
Who?
Who brought forward what he wanted to do?
Damn it!
That bastard!
When Viktor knew about Reek River's existence, he already had a meticulous plan to utilize it.
However, that would be at the end, not now!
Now?
Viktor frowned when he saw the ruined Ring City.
His plan had to change.
And …
Who was it that messed up his perfect plan?
King Reow stared at Scarlet and Viktor, not saying a word.
A few seconds later, he waved his hand.
Scarlet looked like he was pardoned, dragging Viktor out of King City. King Reow's eyes turned cold when he saw Viktor and Scarlet leave.
He wasn't sure whether or not there was anything wrong with the two of them.
But his Ring City was ruined!
Someone had to pay the price!
Just when King Reow was about to make his move, King Qi stopped him.
"Wait!
"My barrier has been broken!"
Deal with the intruders first! "
King Qi said in a concise manner.
King Reow frowned but eventually nodded.
It knew very well that compared to Scarlet and Viktor, who it could kill at any moment, the intruders were the real enemies.
If he didn't kill them, they would.
They would be the ones to die.
"How are you?"
King Reow asked King Qi.
His voice sounded warm again, with a sense of concern.
"I suffered some backlash.
Some powerful bastard broke in. "
King Qi replied.
"Then you rest here, leave the top to me and King Liao.
"No!
We have to end this as soon as possible, I have a strong feeling that if this drags on, we will face the threat of death. "
King Qi shook his head in rejection.
King Reow's face changed right away.
"Threat of death?
Are you sure? "
King Reow was extremely serious, not even when he saw Ring City being destroyed.
He knew what King Qi's ability was.
It was an instinct that allowed him to face danger and the unknown.
It was because of this ability that they were able to avert danger multiple times.
"I am sure!
And the feeling is getting stronger!
"I saw the burning flames, the flowing blood, and the flying crows."
King Qi nodded.
"Fire, blood, and crows?"
King Reow frowned.
He had never heard of any powerful crows before. Although the legends said that the sun was a golden crow, it was just a legend, not something to be taken seriously.
King Reow didn't care about what King Qi said.
He knew the uncertainties in the matter.
There were simply too many possibilities.
They didn't have the time to investigate the possibilities, they had to take out the intruders as soon as possible!
A moment later, the two kings vanished from the palace.
More Royal Court guards charged out of Royal City.
It was different from the previous manhunt.
This time, they were going to join the war.
Soon, other than the necessary guards, the palace was deserted. Most of the guards were paying attention to the chaos outside King City.
They never thought King City would be in trouble.
It was impossible from their point of view.
With the three kings around, King City was the safest place to be.
Even if the three kings were gone for a while, it would still be the same.
Therefore, they didn't notice a certain someone coming from the underground.
…
Wung, Wung!
In the pouch on her waist, [Communication Stone] buzzed, pulling Song Shi back to her senses.
The moment she took out the communication stone, Mian Yi's voice came through.
"Young Miss?
Young Miss?
Is that you? "
"It's me, Mian Yi."
Song Shi replied to the anxious voice of the butler.
Mian Yi heaved a breath of relief when he heard Song Shi's answer.
"This is great!"
It's great that you are fine!
The Battle of Winter Night has been canceled!
I'll bring you back now and when you come back, I'll tell you the reason. "
Mian Yi then activated his special measures.
"Wait, Mian Yi!
I'm safe!
"I have something that I must tell you!"
Song Shi stopped the butler.
What reason?
She wanted to know more, okay?
From Victor, to Du, to the explosion just now.
She knew everything clearly.
Unconsciously, Song Shi looked at Kieran.
He was still as calm as ever.
Cold and calm.
'Are you emotionless?
You just blew up a city full of monsters into the sky. Don't you feel the slightest bit excited?
Song Shi thought about it and told Mian Yi everything the others knew about Kieran.
She didn't tell him that the explosion just now was caused by Kieran.
It wasn't because of fear.
It was because her instinct told her that it wasn't a good idea.
'That's right!
That's it!
My instinct tells me it's better to keep it a secret! '
After giving herself a reason, Song Shi spoke faster and clearer, and soon, she told Kieran everything that happened.
"Sir Victor would do such a thing?"
Mian Yi cried out in shock.
He didn't believe Victor would do such a thing.
Doing such a thing wouldn't do Victor any good.
But he believed the young miss wouldn't lie to him.
Between Victor and his young miss, who should he believe?
Was there a need to ask?
"Young Miss, I'll tell everyone what happened.
Please be careful. "
[Communication Stone] then dimmed down.
Song Shi put [Communication Stone] back into her bag and looked at Kieran again.
"What should we do next?"
Song Shi asked.
"Wait."
Kieran said calmly.
"Wait?"
Song Shi was stunned.
This wasn't what she expected!
After blowing up Ring City, shouldn't they rush in and finish the job in one fell swoop?
Why wait?
Could it be …
"You don't want to fight those monsters that reek of sh * t?"
Song Shi guessed.
No, she was joking.
She was guessing seriously.
If it was her, she really wouldn't want to fight those monsters that reeked of sh * t, it was too scary!
Just the thought of it made her fur stand up.
Kieran glanced at her.
He didn't say anything.
He wasn't used to telling others about his plan.
Even though the plan was halfway to completion, before the other half was completed, all sorts of variables would still exist.
More so, the second half of the plan was the most important.
Likewise, as the executor of the plan, Du's position in Kieran's heart was raised to a higher level.
In fact, after Kieran 'dominated' Du and knew she was good at digging, Du's importance in Kieran's eyes surpassed the young miss before him.
After all, that smelly river was simply too eye-catching.
With the level of biogas concentration, it was impossible for Kieran not to notice it.
Plus, it was very close to Ring City.
A bold plan formed in Kieran's mind: let the water from the Reek River flow into the underground of Ring City!
Then, with a little spark, the whole Ring City would be blown up to the sky!
The whole plan was simple.
With Du's cooperation, it wasn't difficult at all.
As for the moat?
The white monster guarding the gate was also one of his men, so it wasn't a problem at all.
Everything was going smoothly.
Just like what Kieran had planned.
Besides, Kieran knew he had the upper hand in the battle against Viktor and Scarlet.
Even though Kieran didn't know what Viktor's ultimate goal was, he still had no idea.
Kieran didn't know what Scarlet wanted to do either.
However, Kieran knew that as Ring City was blown up to the sky, Viktor and Scarlet's plan and setup would be shattered by the explosion.
Viktor and Scarlet returned to the starting line just like Kieran did.
It might even be worse.
Viktor and Scarlet had a high chance of incurring the wrath of the three kings.
Ring City would be destroyed, and the three kings would not let it go.
No one could bear watching their own city being destroyed.
Let alone the three kings of the monster race.
Kieran curled his lips into a grin when he thought about Viktor and Scarlet's situation.
His opponent had set up the chessboard and chess pieces, and he was invited to play a game that he would surely lose.
Kieran didn't care what the others chose.
As for him?
He would sweep all the chess pieces on the chessboard to the ground, pick up the chessboard and slap his opponent's face until the chessboard was smashed.
If it wasn't enough, he would give his opponent a kick or two.
Kick his opponent's face and weak spot.
Since he was his opponent, there was no need for him to hold back.
Then?
Naturally, he had to pick up his chess pieces that had fallen to the ground.
As for his opponent's chess pieces?
All he had to do was smash them.
That was exactly what he was doing.
