Chapter 489 - Described The Whole Story
When Vincent held the knife in his hand, his aura instantly changed.
In Alger"s eyes, Vincent was an unfathomable alien, and his exact strength could not be seen.
Vincent was like an insurmountable mountain, majestic, invincible, and looked down on everything!
"Great G.o.d, please grant me the power to cut through everything!"
Alger was someone who would never admit defeat until the last moment. Even though he knew that Vincent was powerful, he still chose to pray to Gajero without hesitation. He poured all the demonic aura in his body into the spear.
Although he knew that he was not a match for Vincent, he would still fight him brazenly. He would never cower because of the strong temperament that Vincent displayed!
Vincent looked at Alger with approval and said in a deep voice, "I admire your courage! That"s why I"m giving you a chance. Next, I"ll only use one strike. If you can withstand it, then you win!"
Alger"s gaze was firm as he shouted, "Come and fight!"
Alger transformed into a ray of light and rushed toward Vincent at high speed. The terrifying aura that burst forth from his body caused the flames that descended from the sky to surge upward. It was as if it was retaliating against the fire giant in the sky.
Vincent raised the Return Journey of the Dead in his hands.
At the same time, the fire giant behind him also raised his arm, condensing it into a long blade.
The fire giant then rose abruptly as if it was a real G.o.d. The flames that had just surged upward were once again suppressed by the fire giant"s aura.
Vincent raised his blade and shouted, "Heaven and earth cleaving!"
Illusory blade lights swept out from his body. They slashed everything that was around him. The entire s.p.a.ce tunnel was immediately filled with killing intent, making everyone around shudder in fear.
Alger, who had just rushed in front of Vincent, was instantly overturned by the endless blade lights and was sent flying.
"Bang!"
Alger fell heavily under Gilbo"s feet. At the same time, the spell array that Gilbo and the others had constructed was also completely crushed by the blade lights that were rippling over.
As they did not have sufficient time to cut off their connection with the spell array, Gilbo and the others suffered serious internal injuries. They each spat out a mouthful of blood and kneeled on the ground with their hands on their chests.
Vincent was a man of his word. He immediately sheathed his weapon after he struck out. The fire giant behind him also disappeared into thin air. The four Dark Elves were all kneeling in front of Vincent. The remaining three Dark Elves were s.h.i.+vering in the corner behind him.
Robin, who had always been a bystander, shrank his neck and did not dare to make a sound. He was afraid that he would anger Vincent. After he saw Vincent"s true strength, he was shocked and terrified of Vincent.
Benjamin was shocked and said, "This is the strength that allows one to kill the twelve apostles! Not to mention us City Lords joining hands, even the oracles in Imperial City would not be able to withstand his blade!"
Mcgee nodded lightly and said in a low voice, "That"s why I"ve always thought that the oracle was actually sending us to our deaths! How can we have any chance of winning against such a terrifying existence?"
Benjamin no longer defended Gajero. He frowned and said, "Now it seems that there must be more secrets behind that oracle, and the purpose of Vincent capturing us here is very likely to expose everything to us!"
Mcgee nodded and did not say anything. However, he agreed with Benjamin"s guess in his heart. Robin swallowed his saliva nervously and turned to look at Mcgee and Benjamin. He was at a loss. This was because he did not know what Benjamin and Mcgee were talking about.
Vincent overheard the conversation between Mcgee and the others. However, he did not respond. He walked over to Alger calmly and lowered his head to ask, "How about it? Do you still want to continue fighting?"
Alger stared at Vincent with wide eyes. His expression was unwilling, and he wanted to get up again. However, at that moment, his entire body seemed to have fallen apart. He could not muster up any strength at all. He soon fell heavily to the ground.
Alger sighed helplessly, "I lost!"
His tone was filled with unwillingness but he had no choice but to compromise.
Vincent smiled slightly. He raised his head to look at Gilbo and the others and asked in a deep voice, "What about the three of you? Are you interested in fighting again?"
Gilbo shook his head and said, "No! We"re convinced, we"re really convinced!"
At the same time, he raised his hand to stop the blood from flowing out of his mouth. His eyes were filled with shock and fear.
Vincent retracted his gaze calmly. He turned around, took two steps forward, and said softly, "I called all of you here today because I wanted to avoid any conflict between the two parties. Fortunately, no lives have been lost. I think all of you are willing to continue the process, right?"
"Yes, yes!"
Whether it was Benjamin and the other two who were squatting on the side, or Gilbo and the others who were kneeling on the other side, they all nodded in agreement.
If they still did not know how to bow their heads in front of Vincent, then they would truly be fools!
How could a city lord or a general be a fool?
Regardless of whether they were truly convinced by Vincent or felt forced to compromise, they had no choice but to listen to Vincent"s arrangements. They could not object!
Vincent smiled slightly and turned to Benjamin"s side. He said, "The injuries on the three of you are lighter. Then, I"ll have to trouble the three of you to take care of the four of them!"
"I"m happy to help!"
Benjamin and Mcgee immediately stood up and answered without hesitation. They quickly walked forward to help Gilbo and the rest of them up.
Robin followed suit, but he did not help them because he felt that their intelligence was even lower than his.
Even after receiving so many reminders from Benjamin, they still wanted to make an enemy out of Vincent. Although it was as Robin wished, they were still extremely stupid!
Therefore, Robin felt that the three of them were not worthy of his care. Instead, Alger, who was the most heavily injured, won Robin"s recognition. Only such a fearless warrior was worthy of the t.i.tle of the strongest Dark Elf in Robin"s heart!
Therefore, without waiting for Benjamin and Mcgee to make further arrangements, Robin took the initiative to carry Alger, who was heavily injured.
After seeing that his seven guests were finally ready, Vincent pointed to the underground river outside the s.p.a.ce barrier and said, "Next, I will introduce the place that I will be inviting everyone to visit. This is the underground s.p.a.ce under Bright Moon City. As City Lords, I believe that you all should have some understanding of Bright Moon City, right?"
Robin quickly replied, "Understood, understood! A hundred years ago, because of the City Lord"s poor management at that time, Bright Moon City"s resources were exhausted and was eventually turned into a wasteland. This was a huge event at that time. We must also inform our juniors of this incident when we hand over the City Lord position!"
Vincent nodded and continued, "Today, I would like to show you why Bright Moon City ended up like this. There is actually another reason. When you enter this s.p.a.ce, you will know the answer!"
With that, Vincent waved his hand, and a s.p.a.ce door appeared in front of the seven Dark Elves.
After the s.p.a.ce door opened, the aura from the underground river flowed into the s.p.a.ce tunnel. Benjamin and the others immediately felt a call from the depths of their souls. It was as if there was a weak and sad voice calling them to walk out.
Robin, who was carrying Alger, was the first to walk out. The other Dark Elves followed behind, completely unworried that it might be a trap set up by Vincent.
This was because they all felt the most peaceful sense of security after hearing that voice. The seven Dark Elves were like children who were anxious to return to their mothers" embrace. They did not have the slightest worry or care about danger. They only wanted to quickly head toward the underground river outside.
When the seven of them stepped into the riverbed of the underground river, they instantly saw the dried-up riverbed and the withered and shriveled stone tires. Traces of history had been washed out by the flowing water on the surrounding riverbed.
"Plop!"
Robin"s knees went soft, and he instantly knelt on the ground. Tears were flowing down his face as he said, "This is the aura of the Origin Divine Earth. The reason why Bright Moon City is destroyed was that its Origin Divine Earth here has been sucked dry. Someone had taken away the Origin Divine Earth here forcefully!"
Alger, who was on Robin"s back, was also filled with shock. Tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes. They were upset about the Origin Divine Earth and the Elf Race.
Benjamin and the others also knelt one after another. They leaned against the dry riverbed, was.h.i.+ng their faces with tears.
Vincent walked out of the s.p.a.ce door silently. He did not disturb them. Instead, he waited quietly for them to calm down.
Alger, who was being carried by Robin, was the first to stop crying. He turned to look at Vincent and asked, "You brought us here. You must know what happened here, right?"
Vincent shook his head and said, "I don"t know. I just have some speculations. I wanted to discuss it with everyone!"
When the other Dark Elves heard what Vincent had said, they all stood up and looked at Vincent together.
Benjamin looked at Vincent and asked warily, "Don"t tell me that the reason why the Origin Divine Earth here dried up is related to the demons?"
Vincent nodded and said, "That"s right, everything here was caused by the demons! And the culprit who helped them extract the Origin Divine Earth was the City Lord of Bright Moon City back then!"
Benjamin smiled as if he had already guessed it. He shook his head and said, "That"s impossible! You are slandering the G.o.ds! Everyone knows what happened to the City Lord of Bright Moon City back then. He was summoned to Imperial City for dereliction of duty and died under the punishment of the oracles!"
Vincent did not say anything when he heard that. He only smiled disdainfully.
Benjamin seemed to have thought of something after he said that. He sighed in disbelief, "He, he was summoned to Imperial City...."
