Chapter 1270 635: Disaster Strikes, Each Goes Their Own Way
Dead silence.
Everyone looked back in astonishment.
No one expected that the esteemed chief officer of the Empire's Tower City garrison base, a Heavenly Person of substantial power, who had once contended for the throne of Emperor, the Empire's Duke... would now perish in a single encounter, devoured by wolves!
He didn't even have time to leave a final message.
An ordinary Entropy System, after being struck by a set of attacks from the White Deer, might be severely injured if not killed. How much worse for the Mountain Wolf, famed for its ferocious claws and teeth over centuries?
What does it matter?
Heavenly People?
Not the first time we've exterminated them!
Thus, after the Evil Demon Corpse Mountain, Heavenly Person Pasarella falls!
Between the pale white teeth, blood like molten rock flowed down from the sky, transforming mid-air into a burning rain that enveloped the land in an infernal sea.
And so, belated screams and roars spread from the flames, so hauntingly.
After landing a blow, the Mountain Wolf did not pursue further victory but instead disappeared into the shadows once more, its raspy laughter echoing on the wind.
Since the start of the war until now, the Forest Country has nearly disintegrated, giant trees riddled with cracks, teetering as if one more kick will utterly annihilate them.
Yet this dying scene only intensified everyone's dread.
Even... a retreat began.
In this team battle, a Corpse Mountain and a Pasarella perished, one from each side, making the losses seem equal.
A trade-off that could forcibly be counted not as a loss.
But in truth?
An undeniable loss!!!
Never forget where this truly is!
Pasarella's past identity set aside, his current status as something like a scapegoat achieving merit or awaiting judgment has all but ended his political life.
It's foreseeable that after the process is complete, he'll be divested of titles, disgracefully stepping down, and then it won't matter where he dies.
But until then, he's still the Empire's Duke, a tool and weapon of the Empire, empowered by the Earth's blessing to Heavenly People!
And Corpse Mountain, having grown into a climate over centuries as an Evil Demon, is a rare White Hall Evil, its rarity subtly eclipsing Pasarella, not to mention its corrupt Life Force almost as vast as mountains and seas.
This moment sees Tian Yuan's representative slain by wolves' claws, Corpse Mountain crumbling under White Deer's assault, both buried within Forest Country.
It is akin to two vast sacrifices, both sides using Forest Country as an altar, employing hunts and surprise attacks as priests, ultimately offering a grand bounty to the unborn Wolf!
What it triggered was... the instinctual Plunder of the third Wolf Evil yet to complete its Transformation!
In an instant, the pale giant trees turned blood red, countless crimson flowers wilting, their cracked branches laden with juicy fruits!
Amid the blood-red haze, strange outlines within the fruits shifted incessantly.
Even Ji Jue felt a wave of dizziness.
The black flame within his soul surged continuously, his own Wolf Blood Oath wildly increasing, increasing, increasing!
This unexpected gift was excessively abundant, unsettlingly so, abundant enough to make him uneasy.
Compared to the thinly distributed gifts other wolves received, it was like an invisible hand turning a valve to forcefully pour the surging torrent from a fire hose into his mouth!
Even though Ji Jue had no relation to the third wolf, no matter how much he absorbed, it wouldn't provide any feedback.
It was as if someone hid within Shangrila, trying every way to delay the progress of the third wolf's Transformation!
But even if Ji Jue ate to his fill, how much could he consume?
Ultimately, it's just a drop in the ocean...
In waves of dizziness, what rises in his heart is countless truths and insights from the wolves.
If the common ground between Tian Yuan and White Deer was Equality, then the origin of entanglement between the Tower and Wolf lies in this fundamental Inequality!
Inequality in enslavement creates tyrants; inequality in hunts breeds wolves!
At this moment, the deaths and falls of two consecutive Evil Demons and Heavenly People were like a sudden shot of adrenaline, reviving the teetering Forest Country, further catalyzing the third wolf's Transformation, allowing the Sacrificial King to truly begin to return from death!
At that instant, atop the cracked giant tree, the shriveled corpse moved slightly.
Awoken momentarily from a nightmare.
Which triggered a tide sweeping the entire Forest Country, no, covering the whole White Country!
The tide of blood erupted from the giant tree, blew towards all directions, covered the sky's night curtain, like a filthy blood flow, strands of crimson gathered, like stars, shining brightly, almost dripping to earth.
And within the Forest Country, amid countless suddenly appearing forest illusions, from the deepest darkness, the eerie clear sound of bells rang once more.
The Corpse Bone Wolf opened its eyes again, in that brief moment, gazing at the world of the living.
Studying the advancing Empire and Federation once more.
No more restraint, boundless resentment and hatred!!!
With this single glance, the vast Forest Country transformed entirely into the Evil Domain, dispelling all Power of Superior, suppressing all Heavenly Essence Law, leaving no refuge for White Deer's blessing.
