Heroes' Prison

Chapter 1073 - 1017: Retreat

The Yingchuan Ghost General and Chuanqi Kuangsan had just heard the system announcement of Heaven Sent’s surrender. Combined with the mutiny that occurred within the fleet, they already understood that Heaven Sent was a traitor.

But now, all their troops have been killed, leaving only the two of them without any power to turn the tide.

Yundan is still here smiled slightly, unconcerned, and said: "According to the original route, we indeed could not reach Hero’s Continent before being caught by the battleships. But Big Brother God of Slaughter is wise and foresaw today’s situation! So a while ago, he specifically had Thunder God transport Sun Island to Death Bay, which is the closest point between Hero’s Continent and Land of Dongying. We will change our course and soon be able to reach Sun Island, and even if Headquarters dispatches their fastest battleships, they won’t catch us."

The faces of the Yingchuan Ghost General and Chuanqi Kuangsan immediately turned pale, and their bodies trembled slightly, their eyes filled entirely with despair.

They turned their heads and looked around at the countless transport ships. Flags of the Dongying Guild were still flying, carrying the supplies accumulated by the Guild over several years, advancing mightily through the sea.

And now, all these supplies will belong to the Hero Empire, and the future of the Guild is ruined in their hands.

The sea breeze blew, causing the Yingchuan Ghost General’s hair to flutter backward, revealing his resolute eyes as he said sorrowfully: "I have no face to return to face the Guild; now, only by committing seppuku can I preserve my last shred of dignity."

After saying this, his wrist flicked, and he held his weapon backhanded, slashing it fiercely across his stomach!

In the next moment, blood splattered everywhere!

The Yingchuan Ghost General’s face twitched, his vision quickly blurred, and he fell like a towering iron tower.

Chuanqi Kuangsan lowered her head, looking at the Yingchuan Ghost General’s body, finally closed her eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "Today, your despicable plot succeeded, but in the future, we will definitely wash away today’s shame!"

After saying this, she also committed seppuku, falling beside the Yingchuan Ghost General.

With that, the entire fleet was completely under the control of Heaven Sent’s men, with not a single one of Zhan Dao and Fengxi, the two vice presidents’ men left.

Yundan is still here pursed his lips, respectfully bowing towards their bodies.

He then lifted his head, waved his hand boldly, and said spiritedly: "Alright, let’s hurry and change course, set sail for Sun Island!"

Then, each transport ship quickly turned in a new direction, heading towards another destination.

Apart from this fleet, similar events were happening in various places within the Dongying Guild.

The Dongying Guild was not Heaven Sent’s private guild but a guild of a national nature, manipulated by several governmental forces behind the scenes, intricately linked with the World Federation.

Heaven Sent had a group of trusted men within the guild, who were also members of the Freedom Organization. Almost at the same moment Heaven Sent conceded, these men simultaneously sprang into action, swiftly settling the subordinates of Zhan Dao and Fengxi, the two vice presidents.

The entire guild was now full of internal conflicts and chaos, with mutual suspicion among guild members.

Due to this upheaval, the Dongying Guild had suffered a severe blow, making it difficult to recover its former strength.

...

After the conclusion of the national war on Hero’s Continent, it affected not just the Hero’s Continent and the Invading Army’s nation. More significant changes occurred within the river of time!

Previously, the headmaster of Oskan Royal Academy, along with the nine Semigod Guardians of Hero’s Continent, had been engaged with the avatars of the Seven Archdemons for a long time without a decisive outcome.

The Seven Archdemons originally planned to wait for the end of the national war when the strength of the Semigod Guardians of Hero’s Continent would be weakened, to then defeat them in one fell swoop.

However, the result of the national war was entirely opposite; the nine Semigod Guardians of Hero’s Continent not only weren’t weakened but had their strength soar by 50%!

Each of them was radiating divine power, between every move, they exuded a world-ending force, stirring massive waves in the river of time, obliterating countless shadows of history!

The avatars of the Seven Archdemons were forced to retreat rapidly, rising and falling within the river, their bodies trembling violently, hazy as if they were about to collapse at any moment, reverting to primordial Essence of Life.

At this moment, the nine Guardians of Hero Empire exchanged a glance, suddenly attacking together, aiming at the Queen of Agony’s avatar!

The headmaster tightly gripped Georgia’s Time, tweaking the dial, turning to a mark, issuing a tense "tick-tock" sound!

At that moment, a vacuum appeared suddenly in the river of time, and none of the historical shadows could approach this force!

"Puff!" The avatar of the Queen of Agony was solidly struck, strands of majestic divine power surged into her body, swiftly destroying her form.

Afterwards, this avatar of the Queen of Agony was directly shattered, converting into a vast amount of Essence of Life, merging with the tidal waves of time, seemingly about to vanish into the river of history.

The King of Hell hurriedly reached out a hand, clawed fingers grasping fiercely towards the Essence of Life of the Queen of Agony!

Suddenly, the dispersing Essence of Life converged into streams, rapidly backflowing, compressing and coalescing, reforming the avatar of the Queen of Agony.

At this moment, she was pale, a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, clearly having suffered severe injury.

She had already been killed once by Huang Yi and five others, making her the weakest among the Seven Archdemons. Now, this avatar could no longer withstand the Guardians of Hero Empire with their surged strength.

The headmaster held Georgia’s Time, dialing it back, and said softly: "Seven Archdemons, I had told you before, you cannot win. You do not belong to this era and should long have been enshrined in the Heaven Realm. Why do you keep lingering in the Lower Realm, sending your avatars repeatedly to stir trouble, all for the existence of the Divine King’s Crystal?"

"This time you were lucky! You won that Heaven-Sent Man’s national war. But next time, you will not be so fortunate!" said the King of Hell indifferently, as smoke began to rise from within his body, his form gradually becoming blurry.

The remaining six Archdemons suddenly abandoned the fight, immediately standing in a mystic formation around the King of Hell. Consuming large amounts of Essence of Life from their avatars, producing billowing demonic Qi, connecting with each other.

With this formation, the entire river of time became shrouded in black mist, billowing Demon Cloud, and the bodies of the Seven Archdemons slowly became ethereal, eventually completely disappearing.

The river of time suddenly quieted down, with all previous noise dissipating, leaving only the residual whispers echoing from the depths of history.

"They finally retreated!" The headmaster watched as the demonic Qi gradually faded, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
