Chapter 1351 Who Snitched?

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

--------------------------------

"Wait what drugs? Did you say right after left? Oh for the love of Aphris t.e.s.t.i.c.l.es!" Toldou yelled in defeat as he noticed Tuenviq's figure ascending the stairs at a quick pace.

"d.a.m.n it!" He cried out after noticing that the guards behind him were now only a few feet away.

Toldou quickly turned towards the path on the left with the separator machine in his grasp.

As the guard arrived at the two initial stopping points, they separated into two smaller groups. One part chased after Tuenviq while the other followed Toldou.

Tuenviq's legs turned into some kind of spring as he reached a particular distance.

Twwhhiiii~

He began bouncing from one height of the stairs to another, increasing the distance between himself and the guards.

"d.a.m.n the G.o.ds there are more of them up there," Tuenviq cursed as he spotted guards close to the area where the lockdown was initiated.

___________________________

Above the closed-off part of the palace dungeon, a green armored large figure stood before a person sprawled out on the ground, bleeding profusely.

On the side, another feminine figure could be spotted missing half of her entire body. Her listless eyes which were laced with horror, depicted what her final moments looked like.

"Oola!!! No you merciless animal!" Riole was overcome with anger and pain as he stared at the incomplete corpse of the female beside him.

Oola had gotten in the way before Ivreen could slaughter Riole so she ended up bearing the misfortune instead.

"Merciless? Traitors to the throne deserve no mercy," Ivreen stated with an undisturbed expression while the needles floating around her emitted a brighter yellow glow.

"You can go join her in the afterlife if you miss her that much," Ivreen's masculine voice turned deeper as her left eye emitted a menacing yellow glow.

Thwwhhhhiiii~

Just as she flicked her fingers forward, a gigantic piece of silvery rock smashed into her.

Bang!

Her entire figure was sent flying as a part of her armor cracked open. Little pieces fell off as her body traveled across the air and slammed into the other side of the wall.

Matilda appeared before old Riole and took a glance at Oola's corpse before gritting her teeth in rage. Riole shook his head, confirming Oola's death.

"Looks like you survived my initial attack," Ivreen voiced with a low tone as she cleaned off the blood leaking out the side of her mouth while her body was slumped against the dented rocky wall on the other side.

"You d.a.m.n b.i.t.c.h!" The entire vicinity quaked intensely as Matilda unleashed her full energy.

She was only out for a second yet upon her return, Oola was dead. She was a young and energetic girl dragged into this mess due to the governance of Dhios and his five generals.

"Unforgivable! Unforgivable!" Matilda had a newfound zeal to slaughter every single one of them.

"That's some power you have there but it won't be enough," Ivreen said while standing to her feet with more needles appearing around her.

"You have protected that person three times now which confirms my suspicion. He must be the mentioned important one. I'm guessing once I kill him this whole operation falls apart," Ivreen's statement caused Matilda to pause in her tracks.

They know Who could have snitched on us?

Matilda couldn't help but think they got betrayed by someone in their circle.

Riole was truly to be protected since he was the only one who could activate the separator machine he built. Without him, everything would get ruined.

Who did it doesn't matter right now. I need to come up with a solution. If the Dhios is not here by now or hasn't tampered with his connection to the slave shackles maybe he is not aware. Maybe they haven't gotten the information to him yet... Maybe we still have a little bit of time.

Matilda's eyes shone with determination as she let out a long breath.

Seeing Oola like that had made her lose her calm but the brief moment of retrospective thinking helped her regain it to an extent. She was still p.i.s.sed but at the very least she had it under control now.

"I will end your life and get Riole down there. This planet will be free from bondage."

Silvery liquid gathered around her figure, transforming into a ma.s.sive spear as she and Ivreen prepared to lunge at each other.

At this pivotal moment, the entire structure suddenly began quaking once more.

Both Matilda and Ivreen paused as they recognized this. It wasn't due to any of them unleas.h.i.+ng their energy. It was because the raft was opening.

Screeevvv~ Bam!

Everyone managed to get out of the way before the rocky walls underneath them could open completely. Some corpses belonging to the silhouettes that had infiltrated with Matilda fell through the hole after the lockdown was lifted.

Only half a dozen of them were left at this point, minus Matilda and Old Riole.

Matilda's eyes widened with a hopeful look as she grabbed Riole beside her and leaped towards the stairway on the other side where the others in all-black outfits could be spotted.

At this same moment, a person in a guard outfit climbed to their level with an extremely fatigued expression. His braided black hair seemed to have tangled and was very rough as his face twitched repeatedly.

"Tuenviq! Get him down there immediately," Matilda ignored how tired he looked and handed Riole over to him.

Unconscious guards could be seen scattered across the stairways which depicted what went down before the lockdown was lifted.

Immediately after Tuenviq received Riole, four needles streaked across the air at incredible speed.

Matilda waved her right hand and a wall of solid silver materialized before them.

"Go now!" She yelled while thrusting her right hand forward.

The entire wall s.h.i.+fted upwards based on her command and exploded a moment later. The vicinity quaked intensely as rocks began to fall from above.

Tuenviq had Riole in his grasp as he bounced down the stairs as quickly as he could, moving from side to side to avoid the rocky projectiles descending from above.

"No! No! No! No! Today is not the day I die!"

Tuenviq yelled as he managed to evade one ma.s.sive falling rock after the other with the troops in all black following from behind.

Matilda stared downwards from her position above and let out a sigh of relief.

"I need to take care of her before she becomes a problem not like she already isn't," Matilda recalled the silvery pieces scattered across the place and leaped forward.

Ivreen also charged forward at this point and they clashed.

Bang!

Matilda's spear-shaped silvery weapon was stopped by a wall of glowing yellowish needles.

Ivreen flicked her finger and tens of these needles dove forward.

Matilda leaped backward as she channeled her bloodline.

Swwiihh~ Swwiihhh~

Her figure blurred as she swerved sideways continuously at insane speed the needles missed her while she created more silvery spears around her and swung her arm forward.

Thwwiiihh~ Thwwiiihh~ Thwwiiihh~

The spears streaked in Ivreen's direction while gathering an insane amount of energy around them.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

It sounded like explosions were going off as the spears collided with multiple cl.u.s.ters of glowing yellow needles. The surrounding walls had already crumbled and now the stairways were taking the damage.

There was no doubt that the entire infrastructure would come crumbling down if both of them continued.

.....

Meanwhile in another location

A nine-foot-tall Abruikis male in a red sh.e.l.l-like armor could be seen trotting into a beautiful environment with a serious expression.

"General Borl!" The guards in the vicinity instantly bowed the moment they spotted him.

"Where is the emperor?" He inquired while climbing a small stairway made from smooth glowing green stones.

"The emperor doesn't wish to be disturbed right now. He has asked that we let no one into the throne room," One of the guards answered.

"This is a matter of grave importance. Should anyone stand in my path, they will surely meet their end," General Borl didn't stop for a second as he waltzed into the ma.s.sive structure which was constructed to look like the upper body of a sharp-looking Abruikis ancestor.

His figure was so quick even though he was only walking. He was out of sight before the guards could even raise their heads.

.

"Hmm Borl" A loud and domineering masculine voice reverberated across the vicinity as General Borl arrived before a ma.s.sive throne.

The throne was magnificently made from expensive materials that made it difficult for anyone to describe its beauty upon sight. Its backrest area was nearly twenty feet in height and seven feet in width with circular teal and s.h.i.+ny black designs. Its armrest was shaped like a weapon and even its sides looked like all sorts of ornaments were glued to it.

The nine feet tall being seated on the throne with a straight expression had blue-colored skin just like the one standing before him. A visible one-inch horn could be spotted beneath his chin area and he boasted a half charred face that made him look even more devious.
