Chapter 1085
The captain’s eyes were filled with fear, as if she had seen something terrifying. Her body began to curl up, and she started to
tremble all over. In the next moment, she began to foam at the mouth, and her eyes started to turn white! Time seemed to pass
by unknowingly.
Audrey slowly opened her eyes and gradually revealed a hint of a smile. Satisfied, she said, “I’ve finally reached the level of
Flame Decay. Now I can go back and find Gerald and the others.” Then she frowned and said, “Rebirth attribute, I wonder if it’s
powerful or not.” She clapped her hands, slung the Soul Saber on her back, and stood up. As she did sø, she hesitated for a
moment, realizing that her entire Treasure Hunter team had fallen to the ground, lifeless. “Were they attacked?” Audrey was
slightly stunned at first, then walked over to the group and took a glance.
These people had no visible wounds on their bodies. Two of them had swollen abdomens, their mouths covered in blood, along
with some dirt and small stones, as if they had died from bloating. Some people foamed at the mouth, their eyes wide open,
looking somewhat terrifying, as if they had been scared to death.
“What’s going on?” Audrey furrowed her brow, but she felt as if all of this had nothing to do with her. She shook her head and
said, “If they’re dead, they’re dead. Let’s leave this mountain range first. Gerald and the others are in the City of Phoenix, and we
don’t even know if they’re alive or not. As she spoke these words, her tone was very calm. It was as if she was talking about
someone else’s affairs, and it seemed like everything had nothing to do with her at all.
If Gerald were here, he would have clearly sensed that Audrey exuded an indifference that kept people at a distance. Of course,
at this point, Gerald had no idea about everything that had happened to Audrey. If he knew, he would wonder how the once
quirky and spirited girl had turned into what she was now. At this moment, he, along with Sylvie and Valery, climbed the city walls
of the
Archaic Tribe Base on Promise Island. Triston and Hector saw Gerald approaching, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief as
if a weight had been lifted.
Kristian and Anabel’s expressions changed instantly. Kristian hurriedly said, “Sylvie, go hide quickly, they’re going to... “We all
know that!” Gerald said with a faint smile, “Don’t worry, today, no one can touch her.” After finishing speaking, he glanced at
Dante beside him and said, “Mr. Pierce, I already know about your taking advantage of the situation. We’ll discuss this matter
later. Now, I’m asking you, are you willing to hand over Sylvie?” Dante furrowed his brow as he looked at Gerald, who was
emitting an aura of the eternal level of Flame Decay. He was incredibly shocked and awed! Gerald had undergone a skeletal age
test in the Archaic Tribe, and he was well aware that he was currently under thirty years old,
An eternal Flame Decayer of this age was simply terrifying! His rise to prominence seemed even more astonishing than
Lamont’s had been. Taking a deep breath, he looked at Gerald and said, “Gerald, I don’t want to, but...
Sylvie’s attribute involves too many things. You really can’t protect her, and even... your Master Alcoholic wouldn’t want her
existence to be around.”
“Can you manage to be an observer then?” Gerald asked again. Dante’s expression faltered for a moment. Down below, Junior
said gloomily,
“Dante, the oracle must be killed. You must help us today, or else the Archaic Tribe...” “Shut up!” At that moment, Gerald
suddenly glared at him. “Junior!” Gerald looked at Junior, licked his lips and said, “Ever since the
Underground Palace, you’ve been wanting to kill me. Now you’ve mysteriously followed me to Promise Island. Are you planning
to break our three-year agreement and secretly assassinate me?” Junior’s heart was filled with shock and awe, as he never
expected Gerald to have reached the eternal level of Flame Decay.
How long had it been since Gerald left the Underground Palace? Back then, Gerald had only reached the supreme level of
Flame Decay. However, in just over a month, Gerald had incredibly advanced to the eternal level of Flame Decay.
He thought about what Gerald had said back then, that once he became stronger, the first sect he would annihilate would be the
Soulreaper Sect. Given a little more time, Gerald might even become the next Alcoholic! Thinking of this, he felt a chill run down
his spine. He continued to look at Dante and said, “We must kill without mercy those who protect the oracle. Dante,
Gerald is protecting Sylvie now, so you have to join me in taking them down right here.” Dante’s expression was constantly
changing.
“Dante, are you really planning to make the Archaic Tribe and the other members of the Seven Forces your enemies?”
Meanwhile, another woman who had been silent until now spoke up.
At this moment, Sylvie’s eyes were red-rimmed as she looked at Dante’s conflicted expression. Deep disappointment was
evident in her gaze.
“I won’t interfere!” Dante looked at Gerald and calmly said, “This is the most I can do for you. As for the two from the Soulreaper
Sect, you’ll have to fend them off yourselves. I’m just giving you a heads-up.”
“Gerald, as a divination attribute holder, neither the Eight Forces nor the Nether Palace would allow her to exist,” Dante said
through gritted teeth. “At first, you all said that the Dragon
Bone and Phoenix Bone was not allowed to exist, yet here 1 am, alive and well.” Gerald looked at Sylvie and said, “From now
on, Sylvie will join the Night Watch as Watchman No. 6! If the Eight Forces dare to touch Sylvie, then the Night
Watch will become their enemy! Whoever harms my Watchmen will be killed without mercy!” Sylvie’s body shuddered, her eyes
brimming with tears that instantly streamed down her cheeks!
It was hard to say whether it was due to disappointment in the Archaic Tribe or being touched by Gerald’s decision at this
moment. “Gerald!” Dante murmured, “Her divination attribute is oracle, she...”
“You all have your reasons, but it has nothing to do with us. Sylvie is a Watchman, and no one can touch her!” Gerald said. Then,
he looked down at Junior and added, “Old man, it’s time for us to settle our scores!”
“Attack!”
As the voice faded, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Gerald. In his hand, the bronze sword swiftly spun out, carrying a
dreadful Vital Energy as it targeted the woman. A dragon roar echoed through the air. With the Dragon Saber drawn, Gerald
leaped forward, heading straight for Junior. “Facing two enemies just by himself?” Dante’s expression changed slightly.
Gerald had just entered the eternal level of Flame Decay, but at this moment, he surprisingly chose to face two opponents at
once. Even though he was the owner of the Dragon Bone, Dante still thought this was a bit too much for him. “Arrogant fool,”
Xena Bamford chuckled softly. In her hand, a soft whip instantly straightened, aiming to knock the bronze sword away.
Clang!
Boom!
However, the moment the two collided, her expression suddenly changed. On the soft whip, a terrifying Vital Energy burst forth!
The bronze sword flew away, but was quickly manipulated by Vital Energy, swirling around and entangling him once again.
Gerald discovered that his attribute was surprisingly effective for multitasking.
Actually, Gerald had felt a bit strange about this before. In the beginning, he could skillfully’ wield a short knife using his Vital
Energy while simultaneously launching a frontal attack on someone!
However, it seemed that no one else in the entire Night Watch could achieve this, not even Carolyn, who had tried to learn but
just couldn’t get the hang of it. It seems that from the very beginning, it was destined for him to possess this seventh attribute he
had now.
At this moment, Gerald’s blade struck directly onto Junior’s body. The collision of the Eternal Flame Decayer unleashed a
terrifying momentum that instantly swept through the area!
“Attack!”
A battle cry rang out as the members of the Soulreaper Sect began charging towards the Archaic Tribe Base. Gerald’s eyebrows
slightly furrowed!
He could withstand the attacks of the two, but there were still many experts in the Soulreaper Sect. Among them, several people
had reached the supreme peak level of Flame Decay! Valery and the others... they probably couldn’t hold on!
“Coward!” On the city wall, Triston looked at Dante with disdain and then jumped onto the wall. Kristian was terrified, but at this
moment, he still chose to stand by Sylvie’s side. Even though he hadn’t reached the supreme level of Flame Decay, he still
decided to stand atop the city wall. Life and death... it seems they’re not that important anymore.
At the same time, Hector and Anabel also stood up, and not far away, seeing Gerald and the others taking action, Xavier, Yael,
and the rest of the group were quickly rushing over!
Dante felt terrible. Sylvie’s tears just now, the disappointed looks from Anabel and Kristian, and Triston’s exclamation of “coward”
were all tormenting him! Just then, Dante’s face suddenly changed, for he discovered... behind him, one figure after another was
emerging.
“Mr. Pierce, I don’t know why you’re afraid of Junior, nor do I understand why you say Sylvie must die. All I know is that Sylvie is
one of my people from the Archaic Tribe.” “Mr. Pierce, I’ve known Sylvie since she was a child, and I even held her in my arms.”
“Mr. Pierce, I can’t stand the people from the Soulreaper Sect riding roughshod over our heads and humiliating us!” One after
another, figures ascended to the top of the city wall, drawing the weapons in their hands! It seemed that Dante had truly become
the most cowardly of cowards.
