Danny didn't want to lose his power as a Lord, but he was certain that it wouldn't affect him as much as it would affect the other Lords.

His relationship with his people was not fragile enough to shatter only because the Links of Loyalty connecting him to his subjects were about to be destroyed.

Daniel Fang sent his Desert Assassins three units with each 1,000 assassins into his enemies' territories. Using the perfect network system created by his Desert Scouts, Daniel could ensure that the Desert Assassins wouldn't have to fight any unknown enemies in the territory.

All they had to do was to kill a few hundred warriors that had been left behind to protect the territories and their citizens from possible monster attacks.

There weren't many powerful Summons amongst the defenders. Most were at the 1st Tier, and still in training. Nonetheless, there were a handful of 2nd Tier Summons that ensured the safety of all citizens even in a crisis or so everyone thought until the Desert Assassins attacked.

The three Lords didn't expect Danny to have stationed an army of 3,000 assassins across the hidden region of the Sacred Desert for several days. They couldn't accept the situation when their emergency messenger crystals glowed almost at the same time, informing them about Danny's attack.

"This bastard betrayed us!!" The Drakna Lord roared, spitting out blazing flames.

The flames burned down the nearest building in an instant, causing a loud commotion.

"It was a good decision to attack him first. That human bastard is a sly fox. He is willing to risk his territory in exchange for our territories. He must have anticipated that we would break the verbal oath," The Pteranodon Lord said, not yet worried about anything.

The Pteranodon Lord looked calmly through the surroundings. He was trying to find the citizens of the human Lord's territory, only to realize that there was no one.

He could have sworn that there was summons bustling everywhere when he was still 500 meters away from the outer area of the settlement within the human Lord's territory. Even the reports stated that there had always been human summons running around doing their daily tasks.

The situation changed the moment they approached the settlement. Once they were less than 500 meters from the outer area of the settlement the human citizens disappeared.

"Illusion Array. He planned everything way in advance," The Pteranodon Lord mumbled, gritting his teeth when he realized that the human Lord was not stupid as he had hoped.

It was obvious that Daniel had made more preparations against the Undeads of the Sacred Desert, and now he had even thoroughly prepared to be betrayed.

"The Warriors in my territory have been killed. It's only a matter of time before my Summoning Gate will be destroyed!" The Glorack announced darkly, a grimace forming on his stone face.

He grunted and lifted his arm, pointing it at the human Lord's Summoning Gate.

"Destroy the Summoning Gate quickly. If we make him lose his power first, his Summons may not obey their Lord's command anymore!" The Glorack Lord shouted, causing the survivors of the battle against the Undead of the Sacred Desert to charge forward.

The Glorack destroyed every construction in their path until they finally reached the Summoning Gate. Wasting no time, they began to hammer onto the metal frame with fierce strikes of the Summoning Gate. The Summons used every bit of strength inside their bodies in an attempt to destroy the Summoning Gate quickly.

However, that was far from easy. All Summoning Gates were extremely tough, making it near impossible to destroy a Summoning Gate in a matter of minutes. It required hours to destroy a Summoning Gate under normal circumstances. Only by being a Tier-5 Lord with exceptional physical strength would it be possible to destroy a Basic Summoning Gate without too many difficulties. But, of course, none of the Lords present had such tremendous strength.

"We should split up and return to our territories once the human Lord's Summoning Gate has been destroyed. He sent only close to 1,000 Assassins to each of our territories. They will have to spend a full day destroying our Summoning Gates maybe even longer. We can use his tricks against him, ensure that he'll lose his Lord powers, and return to our territories' rescue!" The Pteranodon Lord said with confidence in his voice. But it was only minutes later that he sensed something odd.

His Summoning Gate was under attack and the damage being inflicted on it was tremendous.

Because Lords were naturally connected to their Summoning Gate, they could obviously tell if it was under attack. They could also feel how much damage was being caused to their Summoning Gate. That was also why the expression of the Pteranodon Lord changed suddenly.

"He even prepared for that?" The Pteranodon Lord asked himself, realizing too late that it was only obvious to prepare for means to accelerate the destruction of the Summoning Gate if one had already meticulously planned to take out his short-term partners.

Even though Danny didn't expect the three Lords to break the verbal oath and join their forces to attack him, he had long since prepared thousands of Elemental Source Stone Fragmentation Grenades. Danny didn't use them against other Lords knowing that exposing this trump card might cause problems in the future. Thus, now that he revealed the Elemental Source Stone Fragmentation Grenades, he was certain that their full use could be exposed.

The Fragmentation Grenades were quite heavy. They were packed with a pound of high explosives each with a fatal blast radius of three meters. Their destructive force was exceptional, but that was not everything. The Elemental Source Stones used in the explosives of the Fragmentation Grenades were exceptionally useful to destroy enchantments and to make them implode.

Maybe a single Elemental Source Stone Fragmentation Grenade was not enough to destroy a Summoning Gate, but triggering dozens of them simultaneously one batch after another was different.

The Glorack Lord and the Pteranodon Lord were the first to notice that something was off. They quickly realized that their Summoning Gates' strength was declining rapidly.

Thus, the Pteranodon Lord ordered his subordinates to aid the Glorack in the destruction of Danny's Summoning Gate.

Once the Drakna Lord also realized what was happening, he frowned deeply before commanding his subordinates to use every ounce of energy to destroy the Gate. As long as they could destroy the human Lord's Summoning Gate before theirs would fall everything would be fine.

The Drakna would then heat up the Summoning Gate's joints using all their might while the Glorack would use their massive bodies weighing tons in an attempt to pull the Summoning Gate and break it apart.

Meanwhile, the Pteranodon Lord's Summons used their Unique Racial Trait to enhance the other Summons' work efficiency. They guided the rest to tear down the human Lord's Summoning Gate as quickly as possible.

At last, they tore down the Summoning Gate with their combined forces. It was destroyed, and Danny lost his Lord powers in response. All Links of Loyalty were cut in an instant, allowing the human Summons and everyone else to move freely, never to be restricted due to Daniel Fang's commands.

Danny was slightly surprised when the Links of Loyalty were cut. He didn't expect the three Lords to be that fast. Secretly he had even been hoping that his Desert Assassins would be faster at destroying the Summoning Gates of his enemies than they could destroy his Summoning Gate.

Unfortunately, that was not the case.

"That just means the Lord Seal was worth the investment," The Lamia Queen said next to Daniel Fang when he noticed that her Link of Loyalty broke.

She could attack Daniel and kill him right now seeing how defenseless her former Lord was, but the Lamia Queen didn't even think about that. On the contrary, it was a little sad that her firm bond with her former Lord had been destroyed just like that.

"I am sure that the Desert Assassins will complete their job. Don't worry, we will never betray you. There is no need to rely on a Link of Loyalty!" One of the stronger human Summons wearing full-body desert armor declared, clenching his fist tightly before smashing it against his chest, denoting his unwavering loyalty to his 'former' Lord.

It was just like the Summon had said. His Summons wouldn't betray him just because he lost his Lord powers. The Link of Loyalty might have forced them to follow Danny's commands, but he never abused his power. On the contrary, he had always been close to his subjects, treating them like fellow brethren. Sometimes it would make others doubt whether Danny was actually their Lord, or a part of their family. That was how close he was to his subjects.

Even if they had to sacrifice their lives for Danny, they wouldn't hesitate to do so. Thus, it was no wonder when the three enemy Lords found out that the Desert Assassins didn't stop the destruction of their Summoning Gates even after Danny's Summoning Gate had been destroyed.

It was not long after the fall of Danny's Summoning Gate that the other Gates fell as well.

No Lord was left in the hidden region of the Sacred Desert.

However, there was a big difference between Danny losing his powers and the other Lords losing their powers.

Danny always treated his subordinates with love and genuine care. Even with the broken Links of Loyalty they wouldn't betray him. The same couldn't be said about the other Lords and their subordinates.

First of all, the three Lords didn't treat their subjects too nicely. But that didn't mean the Summons would attack their former Lords now that their Links of Loyalty had been destroyed.

The only factor that mattered right now was that the Summons wouldn't be forced to all of their former Lord's orders anymore.

Now, they were about to go against their former Lord's commands, revealing the desire to kill their opponents the other Lords and their subordinates.

The other Lords and their subordinates had caused the death of many people the Summons had held dearly after they had been summoned to the Sacred Desert.

Even if they were Summons, who had been resurrected from the dead, they were still beings with emotions.

They loved, and they hated.

They were in pain, and they grieved.

The three Lords had never been on good terms before. They merely combined their forces to get rid of Danny, understanding that he was the most dangerous.

However, now that the Links of Loyalty had been destroyed, the Summons disobeyed their former Lord's orders and attacked the enemies, who had caused them unbearable anguish, and pain.

A huge battle started, turning Danny's destroyed territory into the battlefield of the Glorack, Drakna, and Petra people.
