"How many Rachels could there possibly be in Goldspire? Wasn't she the head of the Avila family? She was also known as the top young female entrepreneur in all of Verdura!""Really? Or is it just a rumor?""It's true, but I just saw Rachel from afar. She's stunning, like a queen who could take down an empire with her beauty. I can't help feeling envious of Mr. Linc for having such a breathtaking woman by his side."Silence filled the room.In Linc Manor, the members of the Linc family were talking about it heatedly. The Linc family had a thriving bloodline. It hadn't been long before there were already over a thousand family members in the manor, and this was just a part of them. Many more were still on their way.The manor was decorated with fairy lights and colored streamers. The household staff were busy arranging everything in a hurry. There was an air of festivity all around.However, they had no idea that a crisis was about to descend. At this moment, Gideon had already arr
Truman and a group of people came to the front gates. They looked around and finally fixed their eyes on Gideon.Was there really only one person? Who was this young man? What had he come here for? Truman didn't think he was from the Avila family."Dad, something is off." Larry looked at the shattered square and the collapsed stone pegasus statues. Somehow, he felt uneasy.However, Truman didn't care at all. Even if the man was incredibly powerful, what could he do? The Linc family had summoned 30,000 men! Yes, 30,000 men! It was all of the Linc family's forces.The Lincs reigned over Emberstone's underworld because they were the most powerful family. The second and third factions combined did not even come close to having 30,000 members, while the troops in the war zone of Emberstone only reached a total of 30,000.The Linc family held control over all of Emberstone, with Truman as their leader."Kid, who are you?""Gideon Snow!" replied Gideon."Gideon Snow? Never heard of
The laughter continued."It's hilarious.""Is this guy an idiot or something?"The Lincs bent over, laughing. Their laughter was loud and mocking, and their faces were full of scorn.Right at that moment, Adrian strutted out and gave a smug smile. "You must be Gideon," he taunted. "One of Rachel's admirers, I presume? Well, just to inform you. She's already taken… by me!"Gideon's expression changed.Adrian's reckless behavior grew worse as he laughed loudly. "I've played with her numerous times," he boasted. "She started off so arrogant, but now she's like a loyal dog, begging at my feet! Does that make you angry?" He laughed. "She may be your goddess, but to me, she's just a toy!"At this particular moment, Gideon appeared to be quite composed. However, anyone who knew him well would recognize that this was actually a sign of extreme anger for him.A loud boom echoed through the air, followed by a sudden burst of intense murderous energy. It filled the entire area, causin
The thunderous sound of marching feet echoed through the air as 30,000 men advanced forward to attack.The front square of Linc Manor was massive, with enough space for at least 50,000 to 60,000 people.At that precise moment, there was ample room for the 30,000 men to spread out and prepare for battle. It was a startling sight, indeed!Every individual held onto a sharp object—either a knife, spear, or club. They all had menacing looks on their faces. With such a large group of people, even the saliva from each person could engulf an average person.But they were just ordinary people. Gideon, however, was not.Throughout the entire encounter, his expression hardly wavered. In fact, a hint of disdain and disgust could be seen in his eyes. 30,000 men? They were insignificant to him.At Arcane previously, he had single-handedly fought off ten fully armed legions. These legions were equipped with advanced technological weapons, such as tanks and cannons.The battle had been watch
Gideon said flatly, "That won't be necessary."Truman's heart sank. "Sir, what do you mean by that?"Gideon didn't respond.At that moment, Leopold and Nino arrived with their forces. 18,000 men surged forward, encircling the entire area in an overwhelming show of strength.The sudden arrival stunned Truman and his men. They realized that this force of 18,000 radiated a presence far more terrifying than their 30,000 men.In truth, many of the Linc family's 30,000 were nothing more than a disorganized rabble. However, Leopold's and Nino's men were hardened veterans—elites forged through countless struggles."Sir!""Sir!"Leopold and Nino rushed over.Truman was once again shocked. My goodness! Not only was Gideon powerful, but he also commanded such a large, formidable force. Could he be the son of some big shot in Goldspire's criminal underworld?Leopold and Nino looked at the thousands of men lying in pools of blood and then at Gideon. They couldn't help but feel their sca
"What kind of trouble?" Gideon asked."According to reliable information, Ms. Avila was captured by the leader of Tiger Clan after escaping from the Linc family," Nino reported."Tiger Clan?""Yes. It's a major force in Emberstone's criminal underworld. In fact, Tiger Clan is the top organization. However, because the Linc family dominates both legal and illegal spheres, Tiger Clan can't surpass them."Gideon remarked meaningfully, "First, the Linc family, and now, Tiger Clan? Emberstone is full of hidden dangers. It's quite the tiger's den, isn't it? Ha!"Nino asked, "Sir, what are your orders?""To Tiger Clan!" Gideon waved, and the forces moved out in an orderly but overwhelming retreat. They left the Linc family behind without another glance.Those observing from the shadows, including Terry and his team, couldn't contain their excitement. They had been sent here to eliminate the cancers plaguing Emberstone.The Linc family was one such cancer, and Tiger Clan was another.
"Who are you people, daring to stir up trouble at Tiger Clan? You must be tired of living, huh?""Tell Tyson Payne to get out here!" Gideon barked coldly.The guards were stunned. This was unbelievable.In Emberstone, everyone addressed Tyson by calling him "Master Tiger". No one dared to address the clan master by his full name!"Kid, you're courting death!""Scram!" Gideon roared.In an instant, over a hundred guards collapsed to the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, convulsing uncontrollably.Upon seeing this, Nino and Leopold gasped.This kind of power was terrifying beyond comprehension. It was just like special effects in a blockbuster movie, almost supernatural.The Tiger Clan's alarms blared.By the time Gideon had reached the front gates, he saw a gathering of over ten thousand men inside.Leading them was a middle-aged man, calm and composed, who asked, "You don't seem familiar. What business do you have with Tiger Clan?""Where is Tyson Payne?""The clan
Terry and his group had been watching from the shadows. While they could stay unnoticed by Leopold and Nino, there was no escaping Gideon's acute senses.At this moment, Terry realized he had been exposed. Sensing Gideon's rage, he urgently contacted Emberstone's city mayor.The Emberstone's city officials, including the mayor, had already been briefed about the situation. Therefore, all the numbers that Truman dialed could not be called through.However, Terry used a secret communication channel to reach the county office. "Seal off the city hall right now! Immediately! Hurry, hurry!"The city council's secretary was alarmed and immediately informed the mayor.The next second, orders were issued to subordinate departments. All city halls across Emberstone were completely locked down.…At the same time, Tyson arrived at the city hall with Rachel. He was overjoyed. To him, it felt like he had struck gold to have found such stunning beauty.It wasn't just any beauty. It was Rach
"Gideon, I advise you not to go too far. I am royalty. You should know how high my status is! How dare you make me kneel? This is outrageous! "Since you're also from Dasovia, you should know that you should respect the royal family and even hold it in awe! It is you who should be on your knees!" Douglas ranted.He was extremely angry, but he could not do anything about it as he was firmly pinned to the ground.Gideon sat with his legs crossed, swirling a glass of red wine in his hand and smiling. "I have to admire you. You're a prisoner now, yet you're still so full of yourself."Douglas snorted coldly, "Gideon, this humiliation won't last long. But you've caused a huge disaster. My family will definitely take action and gather hundreds of thousands of troops. "Even though you have 180,000 masters and 30,000 transcendents, they'll be like paper in front of a fully armed army. They won't withstand a single blow! If you're smart, release me right away and come with me to surrender
"What?" Howard and the others were really mad.Even though a lot of powerful masters and transcendents had been taken out, the rest of the forces were still in good shape. They were still backing up the Chapman royal family. Now that six of these factions were completely gone, it looked like Mullong Dragons and Thunderbolt were bound to meet the same fate of being wiped out as well. Howard and the others were grinding their teeth in frustration.But then Willis said, "Actually, this could work in our favor. We were just worried about not being able to make a move on the battlefield, right? So let's use this to force Dominic to show up.""What do you mean?""Let's send out the troops right away to surround those masters and transcendents. That should bring Dominic and his crew running."Lyle thought for a second and nodded. "Yeah, that’s actually a pretty smart move!"Howard agreed right away and gave the order. Before they knew it, 300,000 men were on the move.Among the eight
It couldn't be Gideon, right?Although Ruby knew that Gideon had considerable power and could make Geoffrey submit to him, it was too astonishing to conquer so many world-class champions. If Gideon could achieve this, he could directly establish a country and become its ruler.Why would he return to Dasovia and stay cooped up in the small Goldspire? Who could it be, then? Ruby was also very puzzled. The two sisters each had their own thoughts and left Beaker Island.…The Chapman royal family was still moving. Finally, after three days, all 300,000 troops were assembled. The forces of the Blood Demons and Thunder Gods also arrived in full. In total, there were 500,000 men.Among them, the number of masters added up to 30,000, and the number of transcendents totaled up to 10,000!The Nine Provinces of Dasovia were extremely vast. Among them, Dalhurst was the largest, with an area equivalent to that of two other provinces. However, two-thirds of it was occupied by mountains and r
This was also what Lavinia was looking forward to."I've read about your deeds carefully. Over the years, you've been silently making contributions to Dasovia and have achieved countless military exploits. I know that you're a patriotic hero."Currently, Tylland is recklessly provoking us by causing chaos at the border, destroying, and stealing from our people. I don't believe that you are not furious about this, and I also doubt that you will remain apathetic."With your strength, we could easily take on Tylland together. I need to understand why you rejected my proposition."Dominic was touched. He could sense a strong feeling of patriotism in her eyes. It was uncommon to see such a deep sentiment in a young woman in her 20s.At that moment, Dominic couldn't help but appreciate her talents and potential. He knew that if she were to be sacrificed for no reason, it would be a tragic and unfortunate loss."Lavinia, there are hidden talents in Dasovia. There are other powerful peop
Blood Demons and Thunder Gods were among the top forces in the world-class arena. They were huge and well-known far and wide. Willis and Lyle were also powerful figures who had made a name for themselves globally.When these two factions sent out all their forces, no one could afford to be careless or underestimate them."Those two, Willis and Lyle, do have some skills. Years ago, I tried to seize them and bring them to Oasis Vale, but they managed to slip away and vanish without a trace. I even went to the headquarters of Blood Demons and Thunder Gods but couldn't find them."It'll be perfect if they show up now. We can take them down, capture them, and throw them into Oasis Vale for some toughening up!"The champions' eyes lit up as they heard this. In their minds, they were already silently offering condolences for Willis and Lyle. "These two factions definitely need our attention, but there's no need to stress too much. We can call on our formidable troops if needed. That's i
"Damn it!" James slammed his fist on the table. "These jerks!""Mr. James, has His Grace given any instructions?""His Grace is in Kitherglen visiting the Jaeger royal family. He should have heard about this by now, but we haven't gotten any word yet. We need to handle this before he gets back."James looked dark and furious. He took a deep breath to calm himself and said in a chilly tone, "Sure, 180,000 masters and 30,000 transcendents are formidable, but they're still just humans! "Humans won't stand a chance against our tech weapons! I've decided to use our advanced weapons and send in the royal army to take them out.""And…" James paused for a moment, then added, "Just to be safe, let's reach out to those world-class champions for backup. After all, they owe us a few favors from back when we helped them out. Anyone have any objections?"Everyone exchanged glances, shook their heads, and didn't raise any objections. Even if they had doubts, the current situation left them no
At the Cabinet, many Elders sat quietly, not saying a word. They had just gotten the news. The numbers of gathered masters and transcendents hit them like a thunderbolt, leaving them stunned.It was shocking, and they couldn't help but start thinking. Could all of Dasovia even gather that many masters and transcendents? Maybe. If you added up everyone from all the factions, Great Families, and officially trained powerhouses, it might be possible.But the kicker was that Gideon managed to mobilize 180,000 masters and 30,000 transcendents in just one day. That was what really made this situation so unbelievable.Could the Dasovia authorities even unite all the factions and clans in just one day? No way.After a long pause, Mose sighed and said, "Gideon is probably unmatched when it comes to strength. This time, he didn't even pull out all his stops. If he really tried, the numbers would be way more than that!"The Elders started murmuring among themselves.Casse chimed in, "The onl
A soft swish could be heard in the courtyard of the palace as Gideon lounged on a chair, slowly swirling his glass of red wine.With a flick of his finger toward the sky, a burst of energy exploded into the night sky, taking on the form of a large golden character. It read, "Approved!""Thank you, sir!" The champions turned around.Without hesitation, they commanded in unison, "All masters and grandmasters, present yourselves at once!"A loud rumble echoed through the area as the ground shook, and the sky trembled.Masters from all directions emerged, forming an army of 180,000 strong under the champions. It was a sight beyond imagination. They completely surrounded the area.Despite their efforts to contain their energy, their overwhelming presence could not be hidden. The immense force weighed down on the 10,000 powerful warriors from the eight major factions, causing them to tremble with fear and lose control of their mental state."T-This…"Hector and the others stood in sh
Ruby let out a scream from inside the helicopter.The gathered elites and nobles, who had never witnessed such a heart-stopping scene, also gasped in shock.The giant blade in the sky seemed to slice through the night, leaving a streak across the dark horizon. It surged forward with unstoppable momentum.Douglas' lips curled into a smirk.Anyone who dared oppose the royal family would be annihilated. There was no other outcome.Just then, a dazzling golden light shot up from Beaker Island. The light was brilliant, far more radiant than the giant blade.The world seemed to tremble, and everyone watched as the golden light transformed into an enormous palm spanning over a thousand feet. It was like…The hand of God!The sudden turn of events stunned everyone, including Hector and the other powerful figures of the seven allied forces."What?" The eyes of the leaders widened. In their line of sight, the massive hand reached out, grabbed the massive blade, and held it firmly. The
