Chapter 452 Seraphine, Olivia, and Quartz
Based on Moria's knowledge, Alex did come from somewhere far away, and with his strength, it wasn't strange for him to have many people. But this army was something else. It was a species he had never seen before, even among the beastmen.
"Yes, we all are his people and sword. In case you are wondering, right now, my liege has given out the order to completely conquer this region. So I suggest you avoid going to town for now."
"But you know about me; doesn't this mean he gave instructions not to hurt me?"
Reina's eyes were now filled with hope. She felt a huge relief as her hope still existed. Not only that, he also didn't forget his promise and went to the Zephyr clan to look for her mother.
Her clan also survived. As for the danger around it, she didn't feel it mattered much since she thought they were completely decimated.
"Yes, Madam Reina. But the commander of the current operation is quite troublesome. None of them have made an appearance yet, but each of them is very strong and unpredictable.
Although I believe they would not dare to betray my King, it's always better to be on the safe side. Who knows what they will make you do."
The high goblin had seen how the sovereigns played around with those weaker than them. They made them move like puppets.
Some of them even had the ability to control other people's minds and actions.
"Wait, you say the Midnight Clan has recovered. How did Alex do this?" Moria asked, feeling that feat was something impossible, even with Alex's ability.
"Don't underestimate my King, Mr. Moria. I don't know how, but I will never doubt my King's word."
"So your mission is to take over this town? What will you do with their inhabitants?"
"As long as they don't rebel, they will just continue their daily lives like normal, and I am sure they will be happier living under my liege's rule.
As for those that resist, well, their fate is up to the sovereigns."
"Can I believe you in those words?" Reina asked.
"These are my King's words, Madam Reina. I will put my life on the line to make sure they are followed to the letter."
"Then, as you know about me, as your King's friend, can I request to mediate this conflict?
I mean, I know many will disagree, but at least for those that agree, I want to make sure of their survival."
Reina didn't say this out of goodwill alone. She thought she could recruit some people to join her faction and change some wording to threaten the Midnight Clan inside to swear their loyalty to her.
"I can do that, but I still have my mission."
"You don't need to stop the attack. Based on the current situation, it will still take you a long time to destroy the barrier."
The high goblin let out a chuckle, "That's not true, madam. If I wanted, I could destroy it anytime. What I am doing now is training the army with real experience."
The high goblin then sent out his order to let Reina pass without getting attacked.
Her appearance made all the cultivators in the town frown; not only was she stronger than each of them, but some also knew her background.
But what surprised them the most was how the goblin let her pass unscathed.
They had tried to negotiate before, asking what their purpose was. But the goblins didn't give any response.
This made them think they didn't understand their language.
The barrier then created a small gap, allowing Reina to pass through before it quickly closed again.
"Lady Reina, may you tell us what is happening?"
Reina looked at each of them, then asked, "Before that, do you know where my clan was? Why don't I see any of them here?"
"Well, actually, I also don't know what happened, but they left this town just before the invasion happened. Only some of the mortals were left behind in the sect."
Reina narrowed her eyes. "Tell me honestly, do you not know the reason, or do you not want to say?"
The cultivator took a step back as he was suffocated by the pressure Reina gave off.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"I-I really don't know, Lady Reina. I just overheard some rumors."
"I see..." Reina took back her Qi, letting the cultivator breathe in relief. "Bring me to the leader of this town."
She decided to push back the Midnight Clan for later; without the cultivators, those left would only pull her down.
Meanwhile, in the core region, the beastman territory, three people were standing surrounded by many corpses.
The woman with golden eyes wiped her sweat and then let out a relieved sigh. "To think they are this aggressive. Lady Seraphin, are you really sure this place is safe?"
"For me, yes, and don't worry; usually, this means the same for both of you."
Quartz and Olivia looked at each other in disbelief; her answer didn't make them feel good at all.
"Lady Seraphine, just why did you bring us all the way here? Shouldn't we look for the others?" Quartz asked.
"Just believe me, I have my own information after reaching here. Despite what you hear, sometimes I do get visions of the future."
Both Olivia and Quartz didn't believe her at all; they were sure she had another agenda for bringing them all the way here but just didn't want to tell them.
After they separated from Luca and the others, they should have helped take over another town, but in the middle of the way, they were blocked by Seraphine.
Her presence surprised them, as they thought she was staying on the other side. They didn't know how she arrived here, whether she had her own method or just followed them all the way without anyone realizing it.
But they thought the last possibility should be impossible, as MingYue could feel someone presence based on their lifeforce.
"Why with the face? Didn't you separate from the group on purpose? I'm giving you some reason to do it."
