Chapter 1250 - 499: Holy Artifact Showdown

Zhang Beixing’s gaze was like a spark, sweeping over everyone in the grand hall.

He knew that the upcoming battle would be unprecedentedly fierce.

The Holy See, the Alien Race, the Demon Race... these supernatural forces were formidable opponents.

Yet, he feared nothing, for he was destined to become the ruler of this world!

"Master, I am willing to lay down my life and pledge my eternal loyalty to you!" Richard and Alina shouted in unison, their eyes full of determination.

As Zhang Beixing’s most loyal assistants and followers, they fully understood the mission they carried.

As long as they could lend a hand to their lord, they would not hesitate, even if it meant being utterly destroyed.

"Very well, you two have always been loyal and devoted, I’ve long taken notice," Zhang Beixing nodded approvingly, a slight smile of comfort appearing at the corners of his lips. With these two capable lieutenants by his side, what had he to fear?

"Persuasion, it seems that in this battle, I will need your guidance," he suddenly turned his head to speak to the enigmatic system beside him. Although usually unsmiling, at this moment, he desperately needed this embodiment of wisdom.

[Host, you are too kind.] The Persuasion System’s voice leisurely arose, with an aura of profound mystery. [With your current strength, the Holy See and the Alien Race are of no concern.] [Moreover, we have already forged through thorns and built a profound understanding along this road.] [How could I stand idly by at this critical moment?]

Upon hearing this, Zhang Beixing laughed heartily, his spirit brimming with unbridled ambition. Indeed, after so many years of warfare, without the assistance of this system, how could he have reached this point? From being a nameless youth to becoming a monarch respected by all corners, only he could understand the hardships involved.

"Good, in that case, let’s set off!" He waved his hand grandly, his words resounding with determination. "Send the orders, gather the troops, depart at once!" "I want to see what divine skills those self-proclaimed righteous clerics have!"

"And those aliens coveting my realm, let them just watch and wait!" His words were filled with murderous intent, as if ready to charge out the palace to annihilate all enemies in the next instant.

Yet, just as everyone prepared to move, urgent footsteps suddenly sounded outside the hall.

"Lord, it’s not good!" The one who burst in was a scout, covered in blood.

His face was deathly pale as he stumbled and fell to his knees.

"Report to the lord, the Holy See... there seems to be something strange!"

"Oh? Tell me in detail." Zhang Beixing’s expression subtly changed, raising an eyebrow.

Was there a flaw in the Earth Net he’d laid?

"I... I was secretly observing, and accidentally discovered..." The scout trembled, his voice shaking. "They seem to have obtained a precious treasure, and are secretly gathering troops..." "It seems they are planning some major action!"

This statement caused an uproar in the hall. Countless gazes were directed at Zhang Beixing. However, to everyone’s surprise, he not only remained unperturbed, he laughed heartily, brimming with confidence.

"What? My Lord... How can you still laugh?" Richard was stunned, almost unable to believe his ears.

With enemies watching intently, how could the Master be so careless and indifferent?

"Indeed, we must stay vigilant and be ready to respond at any time!" Alina looked worried, her delicate body trembling slightly. As a princess of the vampires, she knew more than anyone the terror of supernatural powers.

"At this critical juncture, does the Master still have some trump card?"

The Blood Shadow Clone chuckled sinisterly, a hint of cunning in his eyes. He had lived for so long and had never met such a confident human.

Was he truly so certain, or was he just bluffing?

Zhang Beixing surveyed the room, his gaze penetrating.

All he saw were faces full of terror, fearing to avoid him.

Yet he remained calm and composed, standing with his hands behind his back.

"My loyal followers, you’ve been with me for so long, yet you still don’t understand my character?"

His words exuded an arrogance that looked down upon the world.

"Does the Holy See dare to be impudent in my presence?"

"Even if they got a precious treasure, what could they do to me?"

Richard and Alina exchanged a glance, seemingly realizing something. Indeed, the Master had always been in command, planning with precision.

How could ordinary people fathom his thoughts?

"Lord, could it be... this is also part of your strategy?" The Blood Shadow spoke again, his eyes filled with disbelief. Such a huge risk, the Master dared to take it? Such boldness was truly extraordinary!

"Heh, indeed." Zhang Beixing nodded, a slight whimsical smile appearing at the corners of his lips. "In this world, there is no scenario I cannot control."

"As long as I have a breath left, I won’t allow anyone to run wild under my nose!" In an instant, a fierce killing intent exploded within the hall. It swept in all directions, unstoppable.

"The Master is wise! We, your subordinates, are willing to face any danger for the Master, even if it means certain death!"

All the generals shouted in unison, their morale soaring.

With such a peerless monarch presiding, what did they have to fear?

"Go prepare, there’s no time like the present." Zhang Beixing waved offhandedly, his face calm. "In time, I want to see what tricks those old men can pull!"

With that, he strode out of the palace without looking back.

Behind him was a storm of cheers like a tsunami. The entire nation was invigorated.

This was a new era. An era that belonged to Zhang Beixing!
