Chapter 503

Western Garrison City, City Lord Residence.

There were many buildings, and one could not see the end of them.

It was late at night, and the Aino Continent, which was shrouded in gray fog, was even darker. In the vast City Lord Residence, there were only a few areas that shone with a faint light. Most of them were pitch-black darkness that could not be seen with ones fingers, like a giant beast that could devour people.

Zaber took a deep breath, not intending to walk through the main entrance.

No matter how open-minded the Duke of Iron Blood was, he was still a duke. He was the ruler of the western part of the city. It was not so easy to see him through normal channels. Zaber also did not want to waste time. Moreover, they had sneaked into the western part of the city and then sneaked into the city lords mansion. It was nothing.

Unknowingly, he had developed a simple and crude way of doing things.

Zaber s figure leaped and approached the central area of the city lords mansion.

He was not fast. He was careful and vigilant along the way, but he did not hide his aura too much. After all, he was not here to a.s.sa.s.sinate someone.

Suddenly,

Whoosh

A beam of light shot out from within the city lords residence. Zabers figure changed, but he was still hit by the beam of light.

He was not injured, but in the next moment, he was like a human-shaped lightbulb, particularly conspicuous in the darkness.

It was a formation used for warning and marking!

Who is it!

The guards of the City Lord Residence immediately rushed forward and surrounded Zaber.

Zaber had a calm expression on his face. His gaze swept past the guards and finally landed on a strong man with a strong aura.

The aura between the two of them resonated with each other.

You are a Transcendent? What is the purpose of sneaking into the City Lord Residence

The captain level muscular man asked warily.

Zaber shrugged, I just want to meet the Duke of Iron Blood

The duke is not someone you can meet just because you want to. All of you, step back. Let me meet him.

Boom!

His aura erupted. The thick, fiendish blood energy seemed to materialize, condensing into a scarlet and ferocious armor that attached itself to his body.

The method of blood fiend condensation!

Zabers face froze slightly. The origin of the t.i.tle of Iron Blood Duke was not only because of the Dukes wrist and style of doing things, but also because of what the Duke had mastered.

This was a secret method that the more one killed, the stronger the baleful aura, and the stronger one was.

This was the first time he had seen it.

Bang!

The long saber and the blood glove collided, and a terrifying storm swept towards Zaber.

The captain of the City Lord guard was sent flying. The armor formed from the blood fiend energy began to crack and crack.

Zaber had gained the upper hand in one strike, but he did not pursue.

His heart was filled with emotions.

If it was two months ago, he might not have been no, he definitely would not have been a match for this Transcendent in front of him. The two of them had the same cultivation level, but he was born from gra.s.sroots, and the other party had grasped it. At most, he would have to fight for five to six minutes before showing signs of defeat.

However, now,

He had just casually swung his saber, and the other party was sent flying several hundred meters.

Not only was his cultivation realm higher, but he also possessed many equipment and battle techniques that he had never imagined before. His horizons were many times higher than before. When he looked again, he had originally placed great importance on this. Now, it seemed that this was all that was left.

Zaber did not chase after them. The brawny man and the other guards of the city lords manor did not dare to act rashly. They only pointed their weapons at the distance and surrounded Zaber in the middle.

Soon,

In the city lords manor, streams of extraordinary aura rose one after another.

General Roger.

Butler Henry.

S-Sir Duke.

Zabers gaze landed on the young man. Although he was dressed in precious silk, the young man had an even stronger baleful aura.

Only,

He seemed to be different from the Iron Blood Duke in his impression.

After dismissing the other guards, only a few extraordinary auras locked onto Zaber.

You said you came from the capital? Duke Iron Blood asked.

Thats right

Whats the situation in the capital?

Did those old fellows in the capital abandon our city?

Capitals lackey, what is your purpose in sneaking into the City Lords Manor

Seeing that the few Transcendents were about to flip out, Zaber could no longer remain calm. He could not fail because of the capitals pot.

I used to be someone from the capital, but today, I am not representing the capital.

I think you all know better than me what the situation is like for most of the n.o.bles in the capital. I used to be the commander of a corps with hundreds of people in the capital, and our corps is the only armed force in the entire capital to investigate outside. The others have long been waiting for death. Even the high walls of the capital do not take a step forward. How can we care about the survival of your cities?

Even the corps that I am in charge of is not supported by the Court. We have been investigating the outside world for decades and have not been able to produce much results. There are countless casualties among our members. However, I know that if we do not step out of the city walls and figure out the truth behind the Dark Tide, the so-called comfort of the Capital is all fake. Sooner or later, it will disappear like a bubble!

And I believe that our efforts and sacrifices will not be in vain. One day, we can tear open the sky that covers the world and let our descendants live under the sun!

His words were indeed from the bottom of his heart. When the others heard this, they were somewhat moved.

How do you prove what you said?

There is no need to prove that my arrival today has nothing to do with the capital. It represents another powerful force. We came with sincerity to cooperate with the city, but I feel that your city lords residence is too weak. I was considering whether or not I should propose to my lord to cancel this cooperation.

Arrogant!

Arrogant!

Apart from the Iron Blood Duke, a few Transcendents attacked together. The entire City Lord Manor shone like a blazing sun. If not for everyone holding back, the entire City Lord Manor would have been reduced to ruins in just a short period of time.

Within the blazing sun, Zaber fought against several Transcendents with his own strength, not falling behind.

In the end, the Iron Blood Duke waved his hand, and the two sides separated.

After revealing his strength, and only a representative, the att.i.tudes of the few Transcendents in the City Lord Manor immediately became much more cautious.

After a round of probing,

Zaber also understood why the Duke Iron Blood was different from what he remembered.

The one in his memories had died in battle with the terrifying dark creatures when the Dark Tide had just erupted decades ago. Later, the eldest son of the Duke Iron Blood had also disappeared after a deep investigation of the Dark Tide.

The one who had inherited the t.i.tle of duke was his second son, Mors Garcia.

The strength of the City Lords Mansion, including the strength of the Western Garrison City, was much weaker than what Zaber had predicted.

The Dark Tide is indeed not as simple as it seems.

The City Lords Mansion is weak, but it is beneficial to us, Tree Shade.

Zaber smiled.

In contrast, Duke Iron Blood had a solemn expression on his face.

You said that you represent a powerful faction? Now that the Dark Tide has destroyed the world, apart from the Court, how can there be any other powerful faction on the Aino Continent?

There may not be any on the Aino Continent, but we are from the Heavens Beyond.
