Chapter 85

Author: Jason Chord
Leopold and Nino were nearby, watching Gideon issue orders to Rachel. While Leopold seemed unfazed—he knew Gideon's true identity—Nino was utterly floored.

Rachel was not only the head of the Avila family, but she was also the chairwoman of Avila Group, the most formidable businesswoman in Goldspire, and one of the Three Beauties of Goldspire. She carried many titles.

While Nino was the king of the criminal underworld, his influence couldn't hold a candle to the legacy and power of an established dynasty like the Avilas. At that moment, Nino silently vowed his absolute loyalty to Gideon.

Gideon turned to them. "You two don't get to rest, either. The chaos in the criminal underworld right now is your golden opportunity. I need you to seize control of every major faction in Goldspire.

"By the time we're done, I want you running this city's entire network."

Leopold and Nino exchanged a look, their faces lighting up. This was what they had been waiting for—Gideon's backing.

    Drake knelt before Gideon, sniffling and wiping away his tears. Gideon scowled. "Six thousand people, and you brought every single one of them to Goldspire? They're quarantined in a hotel right now? "Damn it! You're not asking for help. You're forcing me to deal with your mess!"Drake looked pitiful as he pleaded, "Sir, I had no choice! I swear! Remember how obedient I was in Oasis Vale? I worked hard and stayed out of trouble. "Please, with your unmatched medical skills, this should be a piece of cake for you."Gideon sighed, his expression dark. "We'll deal with your punishment later."Turning to Leopold, Gideon barked, "Get a fleet of buses ready. Head to the hotel and bring all six thousand of them to Beaker Island."While they prepared the logistics, Gideon examined Drake. He quickly identified the toxin, confirming it was as nasty as the man claimed—potent enough to stump even the so-called Drake. But to Gideon, it was just difficult, not impossible.By that evening,

    "Sir!" Lysander burst into the room with urgent news. "There's a massive force moving in Goldspire tonight. Two well-coordinated groups, and they're clearly targeting someone.""Oh, really?"Gideon leaned back in his chair, his fingers steepled thoughtfully. "Hmm… could be the Farrell family," he mused. "But no… They are more likely from the Yelverton family from Drammore. Yovarian Guild's destruction must have enraged them. They wouldn't let it slide. "By now, their forces would've arrived, and splitting into two teams sounds like their style—especially if they're gunning for Leopold and Nino."Gideon wasted no time and summoned Drake.Moments later, the cloaked figure entered, his demeanor more respectful than usual. "Sir, what do you need?""No more grunt work for you tonight." Gideon smirked. "I've got something much more interesting. You'll be coordinating with Lysander on this. He's the deputy leader of the Cipher. Lysander, meet the King of Venom—the undisputed mast

    The four thousand elite soldiers of the Yelverton family had endured a nightmare. First, the poison mist left them debilitated. Then, came the venomous insects, whose bites brought chaos and suffering. Their combat strength had been severely drained."Now's the time to charge," Leopold declared."Take it slow." Drake held up a hand, his expression calm and confident. "Give it a few more minutes. The venom from the bites needs time to fully kick in."Ten minutes later, the battlefield echoed with screams of agony. The effects were gruesome. Some soldiers' skin turned black as their bodies stiffened, blood seeping from their eyes, noses, and mouths. Others emitted a putrid stench as their flesh began to rot. A few simply dropped dead where they stood, their hearts stopping without warning.The most horrifying cases were those who succumbed to madness. Poisoned and delirious, they turned on their comrades, attacking with frenzied violence."This is… monstrous," Leopold mutter

    Ellis felt a chill run down his spine. A deep, primal sense of danger gripped him as he faced the cloaked figure before him. This man in a black robe radiated an air of death."Who… Who are you?" Ellis demanded, his voice trembling.Drake's lips curled into a condescending smile. "You're not worthy of knowing my name. Show me your strength, you little kid.""Have it your way!" Ellis wasted no time. His bulging muscles tensed, veins popping as he channeled all his might into a ferocious punch aimed at Drake's head."Watch out!" Leopold shouted from the sidelines.But Drake didn't flinch. With an almost lazy motion, he raised a hand and deflected the punch effortlessly, redirecting its force into nothingness."Are you using softness to counter hardness?" He sneered, his lips curling into a predatory grin. "That's your trick? Let's see how long that works. Power always trumps finesse!"Ellis lunged again, this time with even more ferocity. But once again, Drake neutralized the bl

    "Mr. Yelverton, we've lost all contact with Ellis!" "What?" Harry's face darkened. The ominous feeling in his gut was now an unbearable weight. "Send out search teams. Find him." "Understood!" An hour later, his bodyguard returned, visibly shaken. "Mr. Yelverton, we couldn't find them. Not Ellis, and not even the eight thousand soldiers. It's like they vanished into thin air.""That's impossible!" Harry's voice thundered, his disbelief painted across his face. "Mr. Yelverton, there's chatter in the underworld about a major battle tonight. It could have involved our forces against Leopold's and Nino's men, but there's no confirmation. What's certain is that none of our men returned, and no messages were sent. It's… unsettling.""'Unsettling'?" Harry's frustration boiled over. "This is beyond unsettling! Eight thousand elite soldiers gone without a trace!""Mr. Yelverton, Goldspire is far more complicated than we anticipated. For your safety, I recommend you return to Drammo

    "Such an eyesore," Marion muttered under her breath as the family gathered in the living room.Arnold cleared his throat and addressed Gideon, "Gideon, I called you back because we're expecting guests soon—Marion's sister, Maisy, and her family.""Understood," Gideon replied with a nod.The sisterly competition wasn't new to Gideon. He knew this was another chapter in their ongoing rivalry.Marion cut in sharply, "Gideon, you overheard what I said earlier, didn't you? I suggest you quietly step aside. I'll have Matthew come over. There's no way you can compete with Maisy's son-in-law."Gideon smiled faintly. "How can you be so sure before I've even met him?""You're all talk!" Marion sneered. "Their son-in-law is a government official with real connections and a promising future. "And you? A so-called head of a failing family with a company on the brink of bankruptcy? What could you possibly bring to the table? Please enlighten me!"Gideon leaned back casually. "Even world lea

    The atmosphere grew tense, with awkwardness hanging in the air. Elara didn't know how to respond. Saying Gideon was the head of a family sounded impressive, but anyone who looked deeper would discover the truth—he was leading a declining household on the brink of financial ruin. It would be mortifying.Noticing the hesitation on Elara's and Marion's faces, Maisy's spirits soared. Her instincts told her that Gideon was no match for Sebastian. Feeling smug, she couldn't help but revel in the moment.Maisy had spent her entire life competing with Marion and losing. When Marion married Arnold, the Seymour family was prosperous and prominent, making Marion's marriage a glamorous affair. In contrast, Maisy had married Kristian, who was then a lowly salesperson. Though she'd been frustrated by his lack of status, Kristian's unwavering devotion won her over, and she chose love over status.Over the years, Kristian's fortunes turned. With the help of a well-connected benefactor, he built

    Sebastian set down his coffee cup, a polite smile on his face. "Mom, as a matter of fact, I do have two friends here in Goldspire."One is in the business world and runs a sizable company. The other comes from a powerful underworld family and is the heir to a prominent faction."His words instantly elevated the room's atmosphere. Maisy and Kristian beamed with pride. Sebastian's connections bolstered their social standing, after all. Even Arnold couldn't help but feel impressed—Sebastian truly lived up to his reputation, rubbing shoulders with the elite from both business and underground circles.Meanwhile, Marion seethed silently, her frustration aimed squarely at Gideon. She could barely contain her disdain for Gideon, who had embarrassed her to no end. Her anger boiled alongside Elara's. Their thoughts aligned—Gideon was dead weight. Divorce was the only option to save their family's dignity.Arnold, oblivious to the tension, praised Sebastian, "Sebastian, you're quite rem

    Brantley truly lived up to his reputation. As soon as the netherflame entered his body, he immediately sat down cross-legged and began channeling his energy. His Martial God Physique reawakened, and he tried to forcefully suppress the netherflame.His body would turn blazing red one moment, as if it were about to melt, and then be covered in frost and ice shards the next.The alternating waves of fire and ice quickly tore through the internal structure of Brantley's Martial God Physique, and his condition kept worsening."No!"Harmoni was terrified. She quickly spat out an inner core—a treasure her father had given her. It was said to be the inner core of a half apex overbeast. However, it was badly damaged and no longer contained the full power of its original level.She instantly sent the inner core into Brantley's body. It exploded instantly, releasing a surge of energy that began to repair his damaged body.But it still wasn't enough. The netherflame was far too powerful. It

    "Once you get the netherflame, your Martial God Physique will fully awaken in no time. When that happens, even Gideon won't be a threat."We can track Gideon down, crush him, and strip his Solar Titan Physique at the source. We'll also get the Beast Supreme Bone! Everything will be yours!" Harmoni shouted, cheering Brantley on.Gideon sneered. So, that was their plan.At this moment, Gideon couldn't help but admire the power of the Pharaoh's Shroud. They were just 100 yards away, yet neither Brantley nor Harmoni noticed them.Of course, it might have been because their attention was fully locked on breaking through to the third floor that they let their guards down."Open!" Brantley roared.His energy surged, and behind him, a phantom slowly took shape, radiating a fierce warrior-like energy. That phantom looked like a war god.Brantley kept swinging his fists, perfectly synchronized with the movements of the war god phantom behind him. Each strike made the floating palace tremb

    Sure enough, floating in the deep sea ahead was a palace. It was pitch-black, and in the darkness of the deep sea, it was genuinely hard to spot.The glowing fish darted into the floating palace. Thanks to its golden light, Gideon was finally able to see that the palace gates were open.Strangely enough, the entrance seemed to carry some sort of mysterious power that blocked out the seawater completely. Not a single drop made it inside the palace."Marshal Snow, someone beat us to it.""It's fine. That just means they'll go and clear the way for us," Gideon said calmly.It didn't matter who got the heavenly flame first. As long as they weren't peak Supremes, he was confident he could take them on."Now that we've found our destination, do you two want to head back to shore first?" Gideon asked.Elara shook her head. "No. I'm not some helpless little thing. I've learned all the secret techniques you taught me. I can handle myself."Jessica chimed in proudly, "Marshal Snow, don't

    Nethercult's outfits were nearly identical across the board, making them easy to recognize.As a major power in the northern region of the Wasteland, Nethercult kept a low profile. Tristan Neblanc, the leader, was as elusive as a ghost. He was heard of but rarely seen."Mr. Ballard, Harmoni and Brantley have started moving. Do you think they can get their hands on the heavenly flame?"Three people turned toward the eldest man among them—Nethercult's grand elder, Chaim Ballard.With Tristan absent, Chaim was in charge of the cult's operations.He pondered for a moment. "There's a decent chance. Brantley's working on forming the Martial God Physique. Though he's only at the half-step stage, his powerful body will attract the netherflame.""Mr. Ballard, are we waiting for the netherflame to enter Brantley's body before we suppress him?""Exactly.""That could tick off Talonclaw. And Harmoni said Brantley's from Martialgarde, the biggest faction in the eastern plains.""So what? I

    Even though Gideon was locked in place and restrained, Gideon didn't sense any hostility from the giant fish. He met its gaze without flinching or acting humble.After a moment, he said, "I used your blood and triggered your phantom once, which helped me out of a tight spot. Thank you."The giant fish didn't move. It shut its eyes, clearly not interested in responding to Gideon."Mighty One, I came this time just to express my gratitude. I'll be on my way. If I get the chance, I'll come see you again."With that, Gideon bowed and turned to leave.Suddenly, a beam of golden light shot out like a sword and pierced into his body."Marshal Snow!" Jessica cried out in alarm.Gideon's body trembled, nearly losing his breath, but the sensation quickly faded.He touched his body and checked himself over. Nothing felt out of place.When he looked back, he saw the giant fish's eyes slowly closing. Clearly, that beam of light had come from its eyes just moments ago."Thank you." Gideon

    "The Heavenly Sovereign is the ultimate trump card. As long as Chase doesn't have it, Attwell will always have a shot at pushing back against him."Of course, we're not expecting Attwell to actually beat Chase. We just need him to stir up some trouble and pull Chase's attention. That way, Chase won't have time to focus on the power grab," Jandial explained.Edric nodded to himself. "What you're saying makes sense, but why would Attwell even listen to you?"Jandial paused, looked around the room, and said in a low voice, "I'm only telling you all because we're brothers. Listen closely. When Attwell lost and fled to the Wasteland, his whole family was wiped out. But in reality, I secretly saved one.""What?" Everyone was shocked.Jandial said, "Attwell's only son has been living in my estate. I gave him a name—Alfsee… Alfsee Cook!"The princes around the table started murmuring, "Now that you mentioned it, I've seen that boy at your estate a few times. So that's Attwell's son? Unbe

    As the saying went, good fortune hid misfortune, and misfortune might lead to good fortune.After everything Elara had just gone through, her strength had actually improved when she woke up. Her core had already advanced another step.However, Elara still hadn't undergone any formal training. She had all this energy in her body but didn't really know how to use it.Gideon passed on a few top-tier techniques to her—Voidpoint Touch and Cloudborne Palm—ones more suited for a woman to use.But for actual training, Elara would need to rely heavily on Umbra for guidance. When it came to refining the pure-essence physique, Gideon didn't know much himself.…The next morning, Jessica arrived at the High Marshal's estate. Gideon brought the two of them aboard an aircraft and left Drammore."Your Highness, I have news. Marshal Snow has left Drammore."In the grand hall, Edric, Freddie, and several other royal princes were seated together, expressions mixed.Edric asked, "Freddie, are yo

    "Then, is it possible that Marshal Snow planted something in Jessica's body? Quick! Summon the four renowned physicians immediately. Have them do a full examination of Jessica," Freddie ordered.The four renowned physicians of Drammore arrived swiftly. After examining Jessica's body, each of them showed visible shock."Your Highness, Princess Jessica's body has no issues at all. She's just a bit weak. With some rest and care, she'll make a full recovery in just over a month.""It's truly remarkable!""The High Marshal isn't just a powerhouse. His medical skills are practically otherworldly, too. He's a true prodigy!""Even our own skills can't hold a candle to Marshal Snow's!""He's a giant among men!"The four renowned physicians sang praises nonstop.Only they knew just how miraculous the treatment was. Within just three days, Jessica's injuries were already 70% to 80% healed. It was like watching a living immortal at work."If only Marshal Snow would give us a few pointers,

    "Where exactly did you get exposed to the fire poison?" Gideon asked.Jessica tilted her head, thinking for a moment, then said, "I remember now. It was probably in Tyrant Sea!""Tyrant Sea!"Gideon's eyes narrowed. That was the inland sea within Mulstead and the largest ocean in all of Dasovia. The weather above it was notoriously violent and unpredictable, with thunderous storms raging frequently. That was how it got its name.Jonathan asked, "Jessica, when did you sneak off to Tyrant Sea? That place is crawling with lightning storms. You've got some nerve."Jessica grinned. "I was just planning to sightsee along the shore of the sea, but then I spotted a shiny golden fish. It was so pretty, so I followed it right into the sea.""Princess Jessica, could you describe what happened in more detail?""Let me think… I dove into Tyrant Sea, chased that glowing fish, and went deeper and deeper. Then, I realized something wasn't right. I was way too far from the coast."I tried to sw
