Chapter 327: Sean Awakens, Winds Rising and Clouds Soaring
“I second that!”
“And I do too!”
“And so do we!”
This had been their agreed plan. Now, everything was ready, and naturally, things fell into place. After Gloydius knelt down, the other two tiger generals and the tribal elders also followed suit!
A dozen or so people, kneeling in a row behind Lilies Archer! The scene was incredibly shocking!
You must know! Fergus Archer and the three tiger generals were executed by Sean in the capital. The bodies of Lynx and Cheetah were not yet cold, and the current Fort South was under the control of Gloydius and others!
And yet, they unanimously submit to Lilies Archer, handing over the power of Fort South. How could this not be surprising? How could this not be shocking?
Suddenly, the opposite tribal army of over thirty thousand was in a heated discussion!
“What are you standing there for?”
A moment later, Gloydius turned his head to look at the tribal army, his voice like a bell, loudly shouting: “All of you kneel down for me!”
Whoosh!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The remaining tribal army of more than thirty thousand was under the command of Gloydius and others. Naturally, they obeyed their orders. So, as soon as Gloydius’s voice fell, accompanied by a sky full of strange noises, more than thirty thousand people neatly knelt before Lilies Archer on the negotiation platform!
Even the countless venomous insects and fierce beasts also crawled on the ground! Respectfully!
Lilies Archer was a beast tamer, whether it be the Black Rhino Tiger of Gloydius and others or the beast pets of the tribal soldiers, a large part of them were tamed by her!
Therefore! Controlling these venomous insects and fierce beasts was as easy as flipping her hand!
“Greetings to the Queen!”
“Greetings to the Queen!”
“Greetings to the Queen!”
More than thirty thousand people shouted in unison, the sound shaking the heavens!
Lilies Archer stood quietly on the negotiating platform, her hands behind her back. Her pale blue face showed no signs of excitement, and her clear eyes were calm!
As if! Everything should be this way!
She, meant to be the ruler of Fort South, the queen of the tribes!!!
This scene made the hundred thousand army of Maclean Lyons on the other side of the negotiation platform look sideways. Despite having slaughtered two tribal armies of Lynx and Cheetah in this battle, the remaining tribal army was united and had elected a new queen, their momentum even stronger than before!
And them? The commander of the army tasked with defending Fort South, Maclean Lyons, was killed by Sean. They won the battle, but the morale of their army was somewhat disintegrated!
Half an hour later! Both armies withdrew, leaving only the countless venomous insects and beasts to clean up the battlefield. The twenty thousand corpses scattered all over the ground were a delicious feast for these venomous insects and beasts!
Especially those Complete Stage practitioners’ corpses! Like refining spirit beasts, which can assist human practitioners in breaking through, consuming human practitioners’ corpses also brings great benefits to these venomous insects and beasts!
So! A very bloody scene appeared around the negotiation platform. Countless venomous insects and fierce beasts were fighting over and devouring countless scattered corpses. The bloody scene was horrific…
…
Fort South! On top of the tall city wall, there stood a man in a black robe!
It was the King of Night!
Behind the King of Night, one of the generals under Maclean Lyons stood respectfully, detailing the course of the battle to the King of Night!
After listening! The King of Night remained silent for a full ten minutes before sighing softly, and asking, “How is Sean now?”
“Severely poisoned, his body is black and purple!”
“Still unconscious!”
The general replied respectfully: “However, his core has not been damaged. Miss Archer said he won’t die!”
“That’s good!”
The King of Night nodded and then asked, “When will he wake up?”
“Probably…”
The general hesitated: “Miss Archer said, probably in two or three days!”
“Two or three days?”
“Just in time!”
The King of Night thought for a moment, then suddenly said, “If I remember correctly, you are Maclean Lyons’s deputy, named Chaai, right?”
The general’s heart trembled slightly, he hurriedly said, “Reporting to King of Night, it is indeed me!”
The King of Night casually said, “Maclean Lyons died in battle, and Fort South still needs a leader. From now on, you will replace Maclean Lyons’s position and be responsible for defending Fort South! Once we return to the capital, I will request the Emperor to formally confer you!”
Upon hearing this, Chaai’s heart trembled violently, and his excitement was evident. He fell to his knees before the King of Night, bowing deeply, expressing his gratitude, “I greatly appreciate the King of Night’s trust and promotion! I will put my utmost efforts into this role! Defending the borders for the nation! If the King of Night needs me in the future, I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate to die for the cause!”
Chaai was also a Complete Stage practitioner, and had always been Maclean Lyons’s deputy. Maclean Lyons had more than one deputy, with five or six being Complete Stage practitioners alone! Now, with Maclean Lyons’s unexpected death in battle, the position of the head of Fort South was vacant. The King of Night was able to choose him from among the many deputies, which was like a pie falling from the sky for him, a great fortune!
From deputy to head, although only one word was different, it was like going from Late Stage to Complete Stage, there was a fundamental difference! The most obvious difference was that Fort South was located at the border of Kisia, far from the Emperor. Once the King of Night returned to the capital with Sean, he would become the king of Fort South! Just like Lilies Archer was to the tribes of Fort South, he would have the ultimate say, and be the most respected in the entire city!
How could Chaai not be excited about this? How could Chaai not be grateful to the King of Night?
“Don’t worry, there will be plenty of opportunities,” the King of Night said without looking back. “What you need to do now is to stabilize the military’s morale, reorganize the troops, establish your authority, and quickly take over Fort South! Later, I will entrust you with a very important task!”
Chaai was startled. He vaguely guessed something, but since the King of Night didn’t explain, he didn’t ask further. He stood up and replied, “I obey!” “I will take my leave!”
After saying this, he turned around and walked down from the city wall. On the tall city wall, only the King of Night was left. Through the red and white Prajna mask, one couldn’t see the King of Night’s expression, and nobody knew what he was thinking.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
After a while, the King of Night looked out at the Fort South mountains, which stretched for miles, shrouded in cloud and fog, and seemed to connect with the horizon. A low and hoarse voice came from behind the Prajna mask, “You all can go home now.” The voice was faint, carried away by the wind…
Three days later, on May 18th, in the evening, at half past seven, in a room in Fort South’s general mansion, Sean, who had been severely injured, finally began to regain consciousness after being unconscious for three full days and nights. His right index finger suddenly moved!
A few minutes later, his slightly heavy eyelids twitched a few times, then slowly opened. His vision was hazy and his mind was in a state of chaos. Before Sean could fully wake up, a familiar voice rang in his ear: “The blood-drinking Wolf’s Massacre!”
“Good sword!”
“What a rare and excellent sword!”
Upon hearing this, Sean’s pupils contracted sharply, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. His previously chaotic consciousness became much clearer in an instant, and his vision also became clearer.
He turned his head to look, and saw the King of Night standing with his back to him in front of his bed, playing with his Wolf’s Massacre!
