129 – Warlock College Antalya’s Resolution
Blitz had a gloomy expression as he said slowly: “Today I convened everyone here to make an announcement. My kind, courageous and humble nephew, Weaver, was killed in Fernandro Princ.i.p.ality in public. The one who killed him was the only kin of Steel City’s City Lord, Yang Feng.”
In the bouleuterion, gloating, ridiculing, expectant, enraged as well as all other sorts of complicated gazes fell on Blitz.
Everyone present was clear on what sort of trash Weaver was. Weaver was the only son of Blitz’s younger brother. His parents died early. Blitz regarded him as his own son and even loved him more than his own sons. However, Blitz was always busy dealing with Warlock College Antalya’s various affairs and he still had to practice cultivation; therefore, he didn’t had any time to discipline Weaver, allowing him to develop into a little silk pants bully. It’s unknown with how many women he played with and abandoned.
Where it not for Weaver being Blitz’s nephew, then somebody would have killed him long ago. He was extremely daring, to the point of even hara.s.sing a lot of Warlocks in the council of elders. With regards to his death, many Warlocks in the council of elders cheered within, but they didn’t dared reveal their thoughts.
Marvin, a person trusted by Blitz, cried out in indignation: “Truly brazen! That Yang Feng relying on Steel City’s power had actually committed murder in public, that’s an extremely heinous and unpardonable crime and is deserving of the harshest penalty. I suggest that we dispatch the Hidden Corpse to arrest the Steel Lord together with Yang Feng and make a public judgement!”
“That’s right! Such a criminal should get his due judgment!”
“They should come here and apologize for their crimes!”
"…"
In the council of elders, nearly a third of the elders successively echoed the sentiment.
All Warlock College Antalya’s Great Warlocks were busy practicing cultivation. As the one handling the every day affairs, Blitz managed to rope in a lot of people these past few years.
Those capable of contending with Blitz, the level-3 Warlocks, looked bored and indifferent as their minds wandered off. As long their core interests weren’t involved, then they basically wouldn’t care about Blitz’s actions.
Most level-3 Warlocks were seeking to upgrade their knowledge and strength. Once they promote to Great Warlocks, then their status and power would receive a huge boost. At that point, level-3 Warlocks like Blitz would be of no importance.
Apart of Blood-Meridian Warlocks, the life spans of the majority of level-3 Warlocks was merely around four to five hundred years. They defied fate and went about searching for life extending elixirs or researching ways to breakthrough and promote to a Great Warlock. Practically all level-3 Warlocks were research crazed.
While the life spans of Black Dragon Empire’s Blood-Meridian Warlocks were longer and their cultivation practice went by far smoother then Orthodox Warlock’s. That’s the reason why they actively partic.i.p.ated in the secular world, enjoying the sweetness of power and the pleasures of the secular world. It was precisely because those two grand Warlock forces’ Warlocks had different life spans and their views on life differed that they would adopt two different methods of government.
A handsome young man mustache slanting over the corners of his mouth, looking about twenty five or twenty six years old, said with a smile: “I heard that Steel City’s mechanized infantry division had just defeated the snake demon legion commanded by Demonic Snake Princess Olerya. Blitz, had this information been confirmed?”
As if being slapped by someone, Blitz’s facial muscles twitched slightly, before saying gloomily: “It was confirmed, Chuks!”
The council of elders suddenly fell into silence, before the eyes of many elders flashed with a touch of a peculiar radiance.
Demonic Snake Princess Olerya was a peak expert from Snake Demon Clan. In Warlock College Antalya, apart from the several Great Warlocks, there was no one bold enough to claim to be her match. And Steel City’s mechanized infantry divisions managed to defeat such an expert, its power could very well be imagined. Under normal circ.u.mstances, there was no one willing to be enemies with such a formidable force; especially when there was a Holy War between humans and the allied forces from the under world’s races.
Chuks said with a slight smile: “Blitz, I have no complaints regarding your proposal just now. However, my directly subordinated troops, the Hidden Demonic Leopard, will not partake in this operation.”
Another man known as Artz, with a short and skinny figure like that of a skeleton, emitted negative force from all over. He said coldly in a hoa.r.s.e voice: “I also won’t dispatch my Hands of Death. Blitz, if you have to dispatch the Hidden Corpse, then dispatch your Hidden Scarlet Hands.”
Blitz’s expression at once became somewhat unsightly.
Warlock College Antalya’s Hidden Corpse was a formidable Warlock a.s.sa.s.sin group. The Hidden Corpse was divided into three great factions, the Hidden Scarlet Hands, the Hands of Death and the Hidden Demonic Leopard respectively. These three great factions had successfully a.s.sa.s.sinated two enemy Great Warlocks by joining forces.
The reason why Blitz convened the council of elders was in order to reach a verdict and have the Hidden Corpse’s three great factions join hands to deal with Steel City.
Only that Chuks and Artz had no interest in using their directly subordinated troops to settle Blitz’s personal grudges.
Blitz suddenly revealed a trace of a smile as he said lightly: “Reportedly, Steel Lord Yang Ye had obtained Sixth Warlock Dynasty’s inheritance, and is the reason why he could develop so quickly and produce a huge mechanical golem legion. It would be a pity if my people accidentally killed him.”
Chuks and Artz, the both of them had their expressions change at once when they heard that.
Chuks’ expression changed quickly and he said with a smile: “Sigh, since the council of elders already pa.s.sed a resolution, then my Hidden Demonic Leopard shall also collaborate with the Hidden Scarlet Hands.”
Artz said coldly: “Hands of Death will also join.”
Only now had Blitz revealed a trace of a smug smile.
Blitz’s ability to manage Warlock College Antalya’s everyday affairs was a testament of his intellect. Secrets pertaining to the Sixth Warlock Dynasty wasn’t something that Blitz could digest by himself. If he didn’t share some benefits, then he’d be swamped once the several Great Warlocks suspect anything.
Within the Senarus Princ.i.p.ality.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Along with earth-shaking explosions, six Falcon Heavy-Duty a.s.sault Helicopters directly detonated. Following the terrifying explosions, all kinds of parts were hurled in every direction.
Bruised everywhere, Demonic Snake Princess Olerya flew out from the midst of those explosion, before falling on the ground. She spat out a mouthful of blood, panting heavily.
Emma arrived beside Olerya and said anxiously: “Daren, this can’t go on. If things continue like this, then our legion will be annihilated.”
Olerya looked at the remaining less than one thousand snake demon legion’s elites, feeling extremely heartbroken, before cursing: “This group of f.u.c.king rabid dogs bite really firmly!”
The mechanical legion dispatched by Yang Feng had been chasing the remnants of Olerya’s snake demon legion all the way until Senarus Princ.i.p.ality.
