In the grand hall, four Guardians gathered.Two of them remained silent, simply observing the situation. They heard rumors about a mysterious strongman arriving, and their curiosity was piqued. However, having survived in Sinister Territory for so long, they learned to be cautious in their actions.
Alexander opened his eyes and sighed, his expression one of helplessness."Ah, why is it so hard to just sit quietly for a moment?"Bang!The door burst open, and Alexander vanished from the room. He did not want any trouble in Shielded Valley. Otherwise, he would have to find a new place to stay.M
The room was eerily silent as if death itself descended.Darko was too impatient, raising a question that was far too sensitive.Although Maxwell was on the brink of death, he was not dead yet."Old Fourth, you've crossed the line," Rivera said with a glare."Yes, the most important thing now is to
"I have something I'd like to discuss with you, but I wonder if," Maxwell's expression was complicated, his words hesitant. He felt as if he was asking for too much.Here comes trouble! Alexander scratched his head, having some idea of what was coming."Go ahead and say it, but I can't guarantee I'l
"How dare you hit my grandfather!""Attack! Avenge Lord Darko!"Several people shouted as they stepped forward, showing signs of aggression.Alexander stood with his hands behind his back, quietly observing them. If these people made a move, it would mean a complete fallout between him and the Shiel
In the afternoon, a light rain began to fall, pattering softly."Ah!"Alexander walked out of the room, stretching lazily. He felt refreshed and relaxed."You came to see me? You must have been standing here for a while, right?"On one side of the doorway, Brenda stood straight and still. She stood
"Mario!"Darko let out a heart-wrenching scream, his old eyes filled with tears. Yes, Mario was dead. Everything happened so suddenly that many people did not even react to what was going on.Boom!A dull sound echoed as the door, broken open with a hole, collapsed to the ground."It looks like I ar
"Guardian, a large crowd is gathering outside! The searchlights reveal a densely packed area," the sentry reported, his face pale with fear.Shielded Valley was facing its greatest crisis."What should we do?" Maxwell turned to Alexander, seeking guidance.Once the medicine took effect, Maxwell's st
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
