Chapter 665 - 665 659 Annihilation by a Spear The Legend
Chapter 665: Chapter 659: Annihilation by a Spear! The Legend Falls! Chapter 665: Chapter 659: Annihilation by a Spear! The Legend Falls! “Ten Red-clothed Grand Archbishops, what about it? If the Silver Dragons do not comply with your requirements, are you planning to take action?” Muria, with a calm expression, looked at the ten humans in red robes before him. Having had contact with the Divine Staff before, Muria knew what their gold-trimmed red robes represented: they stood at the apex of the priest hierarchy.”
“Who are you?” The ten Red-clothed Grand Archbishops, who were initially discussing how to calm down the agitated Silver Dragons, stood up at once when they saw Muria and the Red Dragon Queen approach. An older man threw a probing gaze at the Silver Dragon Queen as if desiring her to introduce Muria.
“Who do you think I am?” The golden light in Muria’s eyes shone brightly, his tangible Dragon Prestige suffusing the palace housing the Human Church’s Envoy Corps. The air turned solid instantly; the ten Red-clothed Grand Archbishops felt as if a mountain were pressing on them.
“Are you Prince Muria?” An archbishop with wise eyes but a youthful visage gazed at Muria somewhat uncertainly. He felt like he had seen this black-haired, golden-eyed youth’s recorded images somewhere before.
“So there are people on this continent who recognize me.” Muria raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised but also realizing that it was normal. The powerful Divine Forces’ scope spread beyond a single Subcontinent — their influence nearly reached across the entire world. However, their influence was practically non-existent in many areas.
“Your Majesty, you jest. With your renowned reputation, who wouldn’t recognize you?” A ruddy-faced cardinal archbishop, who seemed no older than twenty or thirty, subtly flattered Muria. Already having an understanding of Muria’s identity and status, this cardinal archbishop began to assess the situation.
Simultaneously, this wizened man who in actuality was at least ten times older than he appeared informed the other nine questioning yet impassive bishops about Muria’s identity, preparing them for what was to come.
“Hehe.” Muria pulled at the corner of his mouth to indicate that he had laughed. The flattery was poorly executed since they clearly did not recognize him. “Now let me ask, if the Silver Dragons continue their course of action, are you planning to instigate a conflict with us?”
“Of course, we have no such plans. After all, you have been the victims.” A Cardinal Archbishop immediately shook his head. They certainly didn’t plan to fall out with the Tiago Kingdom, the only nation established by Silver Dragons in the world. Offending this nation was tantamount to offending all Silver Dragons.
Among the Metallic Dragon Clans, although the Golden Dragon lineage was the most powerful, when it came to the Dragon’s Fate, the Silver Dragon lineage was indeed the strongest. Female Silver Dragons known for their natural charm and legendary beauty drew plentiful male suitors. They were renowned within the Dragon Race. Therefore, offending the Silver Dragons was akin to offending the Metallic Dragon Clan and even other races of Dragon.
“Then why are all of you staying here? Bringing ten Red-clothed Grand Archbishops makes for a big spectacle.” Muria’s gaze turned icy. The ten legendary human Priests seemed weak enough; merely two or three ancient Silver Dragons could easily defeat and suppress them.
However, as the most robust believers of their Deity in the mortal world and embodying the divine will, they were divine representatives in the secular realm.
When necessary, they could summon the Avatar of their Deity. Their combat power at that level was incalculable. Therefore, to Muria, these ten extraordinarily legendary figures were a nuisance.
If pushed to the extreme, a single legendary Priest, sacrificing their life and soul as the price, could summon a Deity’s Avatar, capable of obliterating the Tiago Kingdom.
“We are here to simply persuade everyone to calm down. If the Metallic Dragon Clan also joins in, the conflicts on this continent will escalate, causing a surge in fatalities.”
One Red-clothed Grand Archbishop frowned as he spoke. The key issue was that, in these tumultuous times, humans, particularly those who were faithful to their Deity and vital for maintaining the basis of their faith, would suffer the most casualties. While some losses were bearable, even Deities couldn’t withstand casualties in the tens of thousands.
“The culprit responsible for injuring your clan, we will go all out to help you investigate. The kidnapped Silver Dragon and the stolen Dragon Egg, we will definitely help you retrieve them.”
“So, according to you, we should sit idly by while our kin are slaughtered and kidnapped, and our offspring are stolen. We should do nothing and merely await the results of your investigation?” Flames danced in Muria’s eyes. “Don’t you find your request ridiculous?”
“Please trust in our investigative abilities. It won’t be long before we can give you an answer.”
“How long do you need, precisely?” Muria questioned in a calm, icy voice. “Three days? In three days, can you retrieve the abducted Silver Dragon and stolen Dragon Egg?”
“…” Silence fell. None of the Red-clothed Grand Archbishops dared to assure him. By leveraging the advanced transportation system, the Deity alone knows where the Silver Dragon and the Dragon Egg were sent off to. How could they be tracked down in merely three days?
“So you can’t track them down, right? Then what are you doing here? Leave, we will resolve our issues ourselves.” Muria repressed his ill sentiments. The human population was too vast. While some people might be inherently antagonistic, there were also people with whom they could cooperate. Because in many matters, humans could be considered potential allies.
