Southern King replied, “Hmph, you had better be telling the truth. Come with me to the Southern Faction Centurias'
base. If what you say is true, you'll be handsomely rewarded. Otherwise, I'll definitely have your life!”
Johnny nodded vigorously. “Understood!”
With his plan all laid out, he wasn't worried about Southern King not believing him.
He would first take Southern King to see the pile of human corpses in Golden Cicada's training room.
Southern King would then assume that the Southern Faction Centurias were responsible for beheading all those
men. If they were capable of annihilating a hundred Centuria members, severing Speedy's head wouldn't be so far-
fetched after all.
Southern King demanded, “Where are the Ten Ruthless Warriors of Southern Faction?”
“Here, Southern Master!”
From an obscure corner of the grand hall, ten burly men suddenly appeared and dropped to their knees in front of
Southern King.
“Ten Ruthless Warriors of Southern Faction at your service, Southern Master!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSouthern King instructed, “Follow me to find out the truth. We will set off right away.”
“Understood, Southern Master!”
Together with Johnny, Southern King headed to the Southern Faction Centurias' base under the Ten Ruthless
Warriors' escort.
Meanwhile, inside Zeke's room at the Southern Faction Centurias' base, Zeke was discussing with Ossa Dei about
forging techniques for divine weapons and was at the beginning stage of forging one.
Given that it was troublesome for Zeke to do it alone, he requested Sole Wolf for his assistance.
Both of them were busy at work when a sudden knock was heard at the door, causing Zeke and Sole Wolf to furrow
their brows in unison.
I have instructed the members not to interrupt me unless it's important, so why is someone knocking on the door?
Sole Wolf demanded in annoyance, “Who is it?”
Silence was all he heard in reply.
As Sole Wolf and Zeke exchanged glances, they came to a quick understanding that something was amiss.
Once Zeke nodded at Sole Wolf, the latter shouted again, “Who's outside?”
Nevertheless, no response was forthcoming.
After putting down the divine weapon Zeke was forging, Sole Wolf gradually moved to the door.
When he took a careful peek outside and saw no one, Sole Wolf immediately knew that trouble had come knocking.
A smirk gradually emerged on his face. To dare challenge the Great Marshal is the equivalent of seeking death
itself.
When he opened the door abruptly, he was greeted by a massive hurricane of energy spinning toward him. With
dust and dirt swirling in the air, Sole Wolf couldn't clearly see who the intruder was.
Having prepared himself, Sole Wolf unleashed his energy to block the attack, but he could only hold it off
temporarily.
He was subsequently surprised when the intruder intensified the energy unleashed, pushing him back by a few
meters.
With a drastic change in expression, Sole Wolf cussed, “F*ck! Look at this energy. Seems like you aren't a pushover!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShow yourself, you b*stard!”
While speaking, Sole Wolf increased the energy he used to block.
Finally, he managed to achieve parity with whoever his attacker was, but he was already at his limit.
Just like me, the enemy must be unleashing all of his energy too.
Given that he was the strongest warrior within Ultimate Class, anyone who was more powerful had to be of Celestial
Class.
Unless he has achieved Celestial Class, there's no way the attacker can further reinforce his energy. Besides, the
only person on Theos Island who is of Celestial Class is Theos himself, but I don't think he would have discovered us
so quickly.
However, Sole Wolf's hopes were dashed the very next second.
The attacker further intensified the energy unleashed, throwing Sole Wolf back a few more steps. It wasn't until his
back hit a stone pillar that he managed to come to a stop.
What frightened him even more was that the intruder's energy continued to increase.
Unable to hold up any longer, Sole Wolf was on the brink of puking blood from the pressure.
Finally, he had no choice but to beg Zeke for help, “Zeke, help... We're under attack!”
Unfortunately, Zeke was still engrossed in forging the divine weapon and was, naturally, clueless about Sole Wolf's
situation.
