At dawn, the temperature on Alcatraz had dropped to its lowest point.
Due to the changes in the tide, thick water vapor permeated the entire reef cave, causing the temperature of the entire reef cave to drop by a notch compared to the outside.
Even the members of the Dark Star Society had to start two bonfires to keep themselves warm.
Especially since they had just finished two consecutive battles with the attackers, every one of them looked exhausted.
Perhaps those attackers were like insects to them, and they could crush them to death at any time.
However, an army of ants could kill an elephant.
Plus, the attackers were not ants.
Every one of them was a special individual who possessed inconceivable abilities in the eyes of ordinary people.
When a large number of them gathered together, even the members of the Dark Star Society could not underestimate them.
They knew their own situation very well.
If they followed Frostrill, they would lose their reputation as members of the Dark Star Society.
Although they were under attack, they did not have any reinforcements.
On top of that, they had to endure the attacks of Serdenk and Nikorei, the strongest shaman on the West Coast. That made their hearts feel heavy.
The flickering light from the bonfires shone on their faces. Their expressions were as heavy as their hearts.
There was one person who was different though.
It was Frostrill.
As the leader of the group, Frostrill was sitting beside the bonfire calmly.
He did not seem to be worried about the dire situation before him.
His eyes scanned over his men.
He could see the heavy expressions on their faces, just like how he felt in his heart.
Gilfren Hatch had not returned, and the greedy men had attacked again. Frostrill was getting annoyed.
He knew he had to stay calm though.
He did not want his men, whom he had spent so much effort to recruit, to do something that they should not have done.
He knew how much pressure Serdenk and Nikorei had put on his men.
Under that kind of pressure, any misstep would result in a backlash.
After a moment of silence, Frostrill spoke in a deep and powerful tone.
"These damned days are coming to an end!
"Our allies will soon return with that damned bastard, and then …"
"It will be our time!
I will ascend to the throne that belongs to me, and everyone here will see things that you have never seen before, and enjoy things that you have never experienced before!
"I swear on my name that I will do what I say!"
As he spoke, Frostrill stood up and looked around at his men.
It wasn't a spectacular speech, but it definitely cut to the heart of the matter. It was immediately sought after and applauded by the people present.
Profit was what everyone was after.
Each and every one of them showed their loyalty again and again.
The originally heavy atmosphere was quickly swept away by the cheers.
The flames burned fiercely, instantly elongating the seven or eight silhouettes surrounding the bonfire by several times. Not only did they look slender, but they also swayed left and right, like vines twisting around, or like a group of dancing snakes.
…
Frostrill's voice and the cheers of his subordinates could clearly be heard in the hall where the bronze coffin was placed. It made Kieran, who was standing in the shadows, sneer from the bottom of his heart.
He really wanted to see if Frostrill would be able to remain so calm when Serdenk or Nikorei really appeared.
In the next moment, Kieran shifted his gaze to the Isolation Magic Array.
One appeared in Kieran's hand.
Ding!
When the ring was pulled open, it was thrown towards the Isolation Magic Array.
The magic array's miraculous nature was self-explanatory, but it didn't mean that it was sturdy.
Even if it was a defensive magic array, it wouldn't be able to withstand a single blow.
Perhaps the defensive effect of the Isolation Magic Array was extremely powerful, but the Magic Array itself couldn't withstand a single blow.
So …
Boom!
After the explosion, the Isolation Magic Array was blasted to pieces.
Crushed stones and crystal powder filled the entire hall, causing the hall, which was already filled with shadows, to become even more turbid. Swapping.
Replaced by Kieran, who was dressed in
Musou rank, Kieran disappeared in an instant.
Dak Dak Dak!
Dak Dak Dak!
Amidst the messy footsteps, Frostrill walked into the hall with an ashen face.
He didn't need to check carefully to know what had happened.
The crystal powder in the air was too eye-catching.
The Isolation Magic Array he had set up had been destroyed!
Who on this island could destroy the Isolation Magic Array he had set up?
Kieran!
Frostrill didn't have any evidence, but his intuition told him that it was Kieran's doing.
"You two, find that damned guy for me!"
The rest of you, follow me! "
Frostrill growled.
He strode towards the bronze coffin.
He couldn't wait any longer!
He had to leave now!
Frostrill didn't know what had happened to Gilfren Hatch, but now that Kieran had appeared and Gilfren Hatch was nowhere to be seen, Frostrill knew what he had to do.
Frostrill was glad that Kieran wasn't here.
He had prepared a safe place just in case.
Although he couldn't block Nikorei's gaze for a long time, he could buy himself some time.
As long as he had enough time, he would be able to open the bronze coffin.
Frostrill didn't want to borrow Kieran's help anymore.
He just wanted to kill Kieran.
Kieran also wanted to kill Frostrill.
A day ago, when he had seen the hall where the bronze coffin was stored through the crystal ball, Kieran had thought of destroying the isolation magic circle.
However, the thought of destroying the magic circle had won him over.
It was natural for Kieran, who was used to being cautious.
Then, he followed his original plan and searched for the place where he was hiding.
It was Alcatraz Island, which was hidden under the sea.
When he reached the end of the stairs and confirmed that it led to the hall where the bronze coffin was stored and a few other places on the island, Kieran called the secret place.
After confirming that the secret doors were extremely well hidden, Kieran had to tear down the entire Alcatraz Island to find them. Kieran started to prepare for the next step of his plan.
He observed Frostrill and the others through the crystal ball.
He was looking for a pattern and an opportunity to strike.
When he realized that Frostrill and the others were exhausted after being harassed by the attackers, Kieran quietly changed his plan of destroying the isolation magic circle.
It seemed like he could take it one step further!
Kieran thought to himself.
He did the same thing.
He packed up everything he needed to take with him, including but not limited to those books, and then set out.
In the past hour, Frostrill and the attackers had fought twice.
This was an opportunity that Kieran could not afford to miss.
Kieran had no chance of winning against Frostrill at his peak.
However, the exhausted Frostrill had given Kieran a chance.
Since the isolation magic circle had been destroyed, the exhausted Frostrill's emotions would be affected. This increased Kieran's chances.
The crystal ball in his hand...
This made the chances of this happening even greater.
In the shadows, Kieran held his breath and concentrated.
He did not exude any aura or killing intent.
He was like a stone, waiting for Frostrill to come closer.
Kieran was patient.
After all, he had been waiting for a whole day.
Kieran did not mind waiting a little longer.
Frostrill was getting closer and closer.
Out of habit, he walked towards the side of the bronze coffin.
It was the same as what Kieran had seen through the crystal ball.
It was also where Kieran was.
When Frostrill stopped and waited for his men to move the bronze coffin, Kieran made his move.
He was like a shadow.
He appeared behind Frostrill without making a sound.
The palm-sized crystal ball appeared at Frostrill's throat in the blink of an eye.
Frostrill's reaction was indeed slow due to his exhaustion and the disturbance in his mind. He did not notice when someone approached him.
However, when the chill was about to pierce through his skin, Frostrill naturally noticed it.
He did not dodge though.
He did not even try to dodge.
Frostrill's face showed a trace of mockery.
He wanted to kill Kieran with Thunder.
That was the only way he could regain the dignity he had just lost.
Frostrill could still remember the shock and doubt on the faces of his loyal subordinates when the explosion went off.
Frostrill had no doubt that his subordinates would have done something if it weren't for the fact that they still had some influence in the past.
He had to rebuild his prestige!
If he still wanted his men to die for him!
Therefore, he really needed such an opportunity.
Frostrill did not move a muscle and waited patiently.
As for the thing in Kieran's hand that could break through his defense?
Stop joking.
Perhaps some special weapons could pose a threat to him.
However, those special weapons were not something a nobody like Kieran could use.
Even if Nikorei had those weapons, she loved her assistant very much. Frostrill was sure that she would not let her assistant use those special weapons.
What was in Kieran's hand?
At most, it was a small toy that had been modified by alchemy.
How could his defense be broken through by such a small toy?
The corners of Frostrill's mouth curled upwards, and the disdain in his eyes intensified.
"Maybe this is a good opportunity?"
I can take 2567 down and force him to open the bronze coffin! "
Frostrill even had such a thought in his mind.
Just as Frostrill was lost in his thoughts, the dull blade at his throat suddenly burst into a dazzling light.
The seemingly indestructible force field barrier and magic armor were pierced through like paper.
Frostrill's throat was pierced as well.
Puk!
The blade pierced through his body.
Frostrill's eyes were wide open. He had died with a grievance. First update ~
