Chapter 1082 Smoke of Gunpowder Rises

Suddenly, a pattern appeared on the gray cloth, startling Jacob. Then, Jacob’s cry of surprise in turn

frightened Blaine and the others who were playing chess. “What are you yelling about? You’re being

jumpy,” Blaine said, looking at Jacob speechlessly. Jacob pointed at the parchment and exclaimed,

“Pattern… there’s a pattern showing up on this piece of gray cloth!”

Blaine and his companions quickly stood up and rushed to the edge of the gray cloth. At that moment,

above the cloth, a pattern was indeed being formed slowly. The forming process was not very fast, and

after a long time, a pattern resembling a painting appeared on the paper.

The pattern was entirely red, as if it was dyed with fresh blood. In the center of the pattern, there were

numerous corpses, resembling a scene of a mountain of corpses. Everyone felt a tingling sensation on

their scalps. “What’s going on?” Blaine asked. Jacob shook his head and said, “I don’t know.” “Look at

this… ” At that moment,

Zackary suddenly pointed at the pattern and said, “This seems to be… a dragon and a phoenix!”

Indeed, a dragon and a phoenix slowly appeared on the pattern. However… that dragon seemed to

broken its back, and the Phoenix’s wings appeared as if someone had chopped them off.

“The dragon’s tail is severed, and the phoenix’s wings are broken!” Zackary’s eyes twitched intensely

as he looked up at Blaine and said, “Could it be… that something has happened to Gerald and

Carolyn?”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Blaine hurriedly said, “It’s just something on this piece of cloth. Mr. Ghost knows

it’s some advanced technology from this world, specifically designed to mess with our minds.”

As they were talking, the pattern on the gray cloth slowly faded away, returning to its original state!

However, this sudden turn of events cast a thick shadow over everyone present. On Promise Island,

after Dante left the room, Triston spat angrily. Then, he turned his attention to Kristian and Anabel.

Kristian said helplessly, “Triston, don’t look at me like that. I agree with what you’re saying. What Elder

Pierce did was indeed unkind, but it isn’t my idea!” “Let’s go out and see what’s going on!” Triston

suggested.

Anabel nodded and said, “Don’t worry about it. Mr. Pierce won’t hurt you. I promise. If Mr. Pierce ever

tries to harm you, I’ll block in front of you all. It is just like you said, even if it means death, I’ll die before

any of you!” Triston was speechless, and then he nodded in agreement! They walked out!

The Archaic Tribe Base was quite large. The group of people quickly made their way to the top of the

city wall. Dante was already standing up there, his expression gloomy as he looked down below.

Triston looked down below, where there were numerous hover cars. At this moment, quite a few people

were getting out of the hover cars, the number came up to around a hundred people. In addition to

them, there were also quite a few Purple Elite Ghosts, making the total count over two hundred people!

Among them, there were two people at the eternal level of Flame Decay, two at the supreme peak level

of Flame Decay, three at the supreme level of Flame Decay, and as for the others, everyone was at the

level of Flame Decay! Among these people, about half of them were dressed in the attire of the

Soulreaper Sect, clad in pitch black, giving off a gloomy and somber appearance. Other people were

probably affiliated with the Soulreaper Sect’s various factions. “What’s going on?” Triston frowned and

asked, “Is the Soulreaper Sect declaring war on you?” Anabel shook her head in bewilderment.

At this moment, Dante looked down before calmly opening his mouth and saying, “What’s going on

here? Is the Soulreaper Sect planning to wage a war against my Archaic Tribe?” “It’s not exactly a

declaration of war,” Junior said with a sly smile. “I’m just here to take someone with me.”

“Gerald?” Dante licked his lips and said, “Gerald is indeed in my Archaic Tribe Base, but are you sure

you want him? Aren’t you afraid that Alcoholic will take the lives of the people in Soulreaper Sect?”

Junior licked his lips and said, “No… the person I want is not Gerald. I want someone from the Archaic

Tribe.”

Dante’s expression changed as he lifted his head and looked at Junior, saying, “You want someone

from the Archaic Tribe? Are you dreaming? Junior, who do you think you are?” He was already furious

with Triston, and now Junior had the nerve to come over and ask him for someone from the

Archaic Tribe. He couldn’t take it anymore. With a loud clang, he slammed his sword into the ground

and glared at Junior, saying, “Come on, let’s spar and see if I can chop you down!” Junior said with a

half-smile, “Dante, let

me make it clear to you. Today, you have to hand that person over. You can’t protect that person, and

neither can the Archaic Tribe. If you don’t hand that person over today… Well, don’t blame me for not

considering our friendship!”

“Really?” Dante roared angrily, “You think I’m old and weak? Come at me, all of you!” With a roar of

fury, Dante leaped onto the top of the city wall, a river flowed behind him.

As the Archaic Tribe had water as their main attribute, they are closely related to it. Naturally, their base

is established in a location near water, which allows them to maximize the potential of their attribute-

related abilities. Dante’s gaze sharpened, exuding the determination to take on two opponents at once.

“Then go ahead and take one more step, I dare you. If you do, the Archaic Tribe and the Soulreaper

Sect will be irreconcilable, and we won’t rest until one of us is destroyed!” Dante sneered coldly. Junior

furrowed his brow, feeling as if Dante had gone completely mad.

Dante didn’t even bother asking who he was supposed to hand over. He just came at him with a

confrontational attitude, ready for a fight. At this moment, Junior said sinisterly, “Join forces? This is not

just a matter between my Soulreaper Sect and your

Archaic Tribe. If you want to protect that person, your Archaic Tribe will become an enemy of the Seven

Forces.” Dante frowned and said, “What do you mean by that?”

“In the Archaic Tribe, there is a woman named Sylvie Pierce. She has been concealing her true power,

for she is actually a supreme Flame Decayer. Her attribute is the divination attribute, making her the

oracle of this generation!” Junior said, “Knowing this, will you still protect her?” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Dante paused for a moment, then suddenly looked at Anabel and Kristian, exclaiming in shock,

“Sylvie’s attribute… is the divination attribute?” Kristian and Anabel were first taken aback, then shook

their heads, saying, “We don’t know, Sylvie never mentioned it to us.”

“What’s the matter? Still want to protect her?” At this moment, Junior sneered and said, “I’ll give you 30

seconds. After, 30 seconds, if you still want to protect her, then… I’ll have no choice but to fight you to

the bitter end.”

This battle… must be fought, no matter what! Junior’s goal was to initiate a war, and in the midst of the

chaos, eliminate Sylvie and Gerald at the same time. Two birds with one stone!

This was Junior’s plan, as he knew that if Gerald were present, he would most likely protect Sylvie. At

that moment, if he took action, it would be justified, and Alcoholic wouldn’t be able to find any fault with

it.

Up above, Dante’s expression kept changing, showing a mix of emotions. Kristian saw Dante hesitate

and his face changed dramatically, “Elder Pierce, what do you mean? Are you really going to hand

Sylvie over?”

Dante gritted his teeth and said, “Shut up, you have no idea what Sylvie’s attribute actually represents.”

“What does it represent?” Triston burst into laughter and said, “Because one’s attribute determines their

fate, I finally understand why Sylvie has always wanted to join us!”

“One! Two! Three…”

Down below, Junior had already started counting. He lifted his head, and under the cloak, sunlight

shone upon his somewhat pale face, making him look incredibly eerie! Inside the room, Sylvie sat in

front of

Gerald’s bed. She looked up towards the outside and murmured, “Have they arrived?” But she didn’t

notice that on Gerald’s body, a layer of skin was slightly raised, and then slowly withered, as if… he

was shedding his skin like a snake!

Atop Fallen Phoenix Mountain, flames were soaring high into the sky. Down below, Mia led a group of

people, who were excitedly kneeling and worshiping the ground. At a certain moment, a dazzling figure

was surrounded by flames. She wore red armor and carried a long red sword on her back with her eyes

tightly shut!

At a certain moment, her body trembled violently, and a Phoenix Shadow emerged above the void.

Then, it slowly descended and merged into her body. Then, she opened her eyes, as if reborn from the

flames!

Her lips curved into a gentle smile, captivatingly beautiful. Her gaze swept over the people kneeling

below, and then she softly spoke, “Eternal level of Flame Decay!”
