The assassins from Snake School carefully snuck into the Prairie main camp.
Although it wasn't night time, the bright sun and the shadows of the tents were enough for the assassins to move towards their respective targets smoothly.
As the leader of Snake School, Perry Kaner was the first to enter the Prairie main camp.
In fact, there was a big empty space between the Prairie main camp and Thunder Fortress. Without her "cover", no matter how powerful the assassins from Snake School were, they couldn't escape the sharp eyes of the Prairie archers.
Standing in the shadows, Perry Kaner's body was emanating the same "brilliance" as the shadows.
This kind of 'brilliance' was constantly changing as she moved.
She was like a chameleon.
No!
She was even better at camouflaging than a chameleon.
Not just her color, but her presence was also concealed.
Snake School had a history of 400 years.
Other than the techniques of Snake School, there were other techniques that they collected, spoils of war, self-created by a certain Snake School member or acquired through trade.
Regardless of which, the techniques that caught the eye of Snake School were all rare and exquisite.
Just like the [Phantom Undercover] that Perry Kaner was using now, it was a special technique that combined basic undercover with a core technique of a sect that disappeared in the long river of history.
It wasn't at the level of profound.
But it was very close.
Perry Kaner who mastered the technique easily shuttled through the Prairie main camp.
She was waiting for the best opportunity to strike.
Of course, it wasn't just for killing.
There was also …
Finding something!
The secret that contained the might of the Prairie King.
Every organization had their own intelligence network.
Especially the attitude towards the royal family and nobles of each region, it was destined that there would be more or less spies around them.
Snake School was no exception.
They even had some decent luck.
A certain spy from Snake School hooked up with a guard of the Prairie King and the guard was about to be killed because of some secret.
In the end, the secret fell into the hands of the spy.
Even though the spy was killed right after that.
But the secret was already in Perry Kaner's hands.
It was also because of the secret that Perry Kaner kept her promise with Kieran.
Otherwise …
Given Perry Kaner's choice, she would rather suffer a huge backlash than take on such a dangerous mission.
Perry Kaner had a deep understanding of how terrifying the Prairie King was.
But it could also be said that it was precisely because of this feeling that she had to come.
"Origin Energy!"
Perry Kaner's calm heart was stirred up when she thought of the term.
But soon enough, the experienced Viper Sect leader regained her calmness.
She watched Lapierre walk out of the tent.
Taking advantage of the emptiness of the tent curtain, he snuck into the tent.
Perry Kaner knew exactly what Lapierre wanted to do.
But it was none of her business.
She had already begun to fulfill the contract with Kieran.
It was just that he had completed some of his own things along the way.
As for those crows?
She wished they could all die.
…
The boorish Lapierre lifted the tent curtain and strode forward. He didn't even notice that someone was quietly sneaking in as the tent curtain was lowered.
At the moment, Lapierre's mind was filled with thoughts of how to conquer Thunder Fortress and obtain the reward from the Prairie King.
"Heh, how dare you go against the king? You are asking for death!"
Lapierre was filled with disdain towards Kieran and Duke Zilin since he knew how powerful the Prairie King was.
The once arrogant and untamed Lapierre was taught a lesson by the Prairie King.
That lesson was carved deep into his bones.
The power that transcended the mortal level was enough for Lapierre to know what he should do.
Obey!
Obey unconditionally!
Lapierre didn't want to die.
So, Lapierre was carrying out the Prairie King's orders to the letter.
He didn't call for any help and strode towards Thunder Fortress.
No one in the camp dared to stop the hot-tempered general. All they saw was Lapierre approaching Thunder Fortress step by step.
When the lightning flashed on Lapierre's arms, the Prairie soldiers couldn't hold back their cries of shock.
They finally realized what Lapierre was trying to do.
Break through the fortress!
They were stunned at first, then cheers followed.
The Prairie soldiers who were known for their bravery and fighting spirit had been suppressed by Kieran for the past few days.
Now, when they saw Lapierre's actions, they were overjoyed.
They were looking forward to Lapierre, the Prairie general who struck fear in people's hearts, charging into Thunder Fortress alone and unleashing a massacre.
Kakroom!
The lightning was blasted out from Lapierre's hand along with the rumbling of thunder, striking towards Thunder Fortress.
Two scorching flames were blasted out from the top of the Thunder Fortress.
It was as though two burning clouds blocked the lightning. After a loud explosion, both of them vanished into nothingness.
"Maxim, Celty, you two bastards want to stop me?"
Lapierre growled in disdain.
Lightning gathered on Lapierre's hands.
He smiled viciously at the two men in front of him.
Maxim was smiling bitterly.
If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to do this.
But he had no other way out.
Unless he was willing to give up everything he had, find a place where no one knew him and wait for his death in silence.
But if that was the case, Maxim would rather die right now.
Everyone had something that they were persistent about, something that they would disregard everything for.
Some were love.
Some were kinship.
Some were friendship.
For Maxim, it was fame and power.
Celty, on the other hand, was much simpler.
He had a vengeful heart.
After all, the injury on his back was still throbbing.
"You left the camp just like that? Don't you want anything bad to happen to those people in the camp?"
Celty muttered coldly.
"Those bastards?
If they die, so be it, we'll just replace them with another group of people. The Prairies people may lack a lot of things but not those who want to stand out!
Do you think you can threaten me with those bastards? You … bastard! "
Lapierre was mocking Celty.
But before he could finish, the Prairie general shouted fiercely.
His ruthless shout caused one to shiver even though it wasn't cold.
Maxim and Celty's expression changed, the fire in their palms burned brightly.
However, to their surprise, Lapierre turned around and left.
Or rather, he sprinted away.
Maxim and Celty exchanged gazes.
"Seems like those Viper Sect bastards have gotten their hands on something incredible!
But what does it have to do with us? "
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
The Snake School members wished for the Raven Sect to die.
So did the Raven Sect members.
...
Inside the tent, a wooden box was opened.
Perry Kaner took out several pieces of goatskin parchment that were stored inside.
She glanced over the Prairies words on the parchment and her eyes were filled with joy.
These were the things she wanted.
However, right after that, the Snake School leader's face turned sour.
The ruthless aura belonging to Lapierre was approaching rapidly.
Without a second thought, Perry Kaner ignored the promise she made with Kieran and kept the goatskin parchment in her bosom. She then sliced the cowhide tent open and was ready to retreat according to the predetermined route.
However, the moment Perry Kaner came out of the tent, she was stunned.
Not only Perry Kaner but Lapierre who was chasing after her as well.
Lapierre knelt down on the ground when he saw the giant white wolf that was bigger than a horse and stronger than a cow.
"My king!"
Lapierre who was filled with ruthlessness like a tiger a moment ago was now as tame as a cat.
Perry Kaner, on the other hand, was shivering.
A sense of fear flashed over the Snake School leader's eyes.
However, at the next moment, the young leader's nose twitched and his face showed a sense of astonishment.
"Hon. 2567 … You are really surprising!"
