Village Head's Debauchery

Chapter 951 The Ultimate Show of Strength, Complete Submission

?Without hesitation, he pleaded, knowing it was the wisest course of action. The individuals before him exuded such strength that he saw no shame in bowing his head to guarantee their safe departure from the territory.

Queen Eleanora’s face contorted with anger and resignation as he did so. She clenched her teeth and swiftly followed suit, her eyes darting with a hint of defiance, signalling those behind her to do the same without delay.

“On behalf of the entire Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City, I sincerely apologise. Our intentions were not malicious. We received distressing news that the Sleeping Fox Runaway City had brutally attacked the Four-eared Lone Rabbit Runaway City, resulting in a massacre, with only Patriarch Rylan and a few survivors managing to escape.”

“We urgently rushed to this territory to rescue Patriarch Rylan, a highly esteemed individual with whom we’ve had significant trade dealings. We hold him in high regard within the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City,” Queen Eleanora explained swiftly.

She made no attempt to shift blame to the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, as they had prior knowledge through their alliances and were here solely to protect Patriarch Rylan from imminent danger.

From a distance, Azarok watched the unfolding scene with dimming eyes, his heart heavy with a sense of betrayal.

He had expected the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City and the Sleeping Fox Runaway City to unite against the mysterious humans, so witnessing both leaders bow before them filled him with an oppressive sense of defeat. This feeling permeated him and his entire unit, dampening their spirits.

Truthfully, Emperor Lakul and Queen Eleanora had exchanged information, aiming to forge a temporary alliance to resist the mysterious, powerful individuals. They were confident in the combined number of their forces, exceeding 13,000+ gods’ chosens and their Runaway Cities’ defensive and offensive capabilities. They believed they could hold their own even against a grade 2 Runaway City, albeit with some severe losses.

However, witnessing the defeated figures of the Wanderlust Traveling Tortoise Runaway City gods’ chosens, alongside the best Captain from his own Runaway City and the Four-eared elves gods’ chosens, and realising that the assailant had not yet spoken, indicating he wasn’t the highest authority among them, gave Emperor Lakul a sense of the attackers’ immense power.

Their presence in the Vylkr veil phenomenon area hinted at possible involvement in the strange occurrences there. Additionally, their claim of dealing with a god, mythical beings rumoured to appear only in ancient times, deeply unsettled Queen Eleanora during their meeting.

This led Emperor Lakul to prioritise the safety of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City over the Wanderlust Traveling Tortoise Runaway City.

It was evident that Queen Eleanora had also assessed the situation and realised that the beings before them must possess more power than a grade 2 Runaway City. This led her to consider turning and running away, leaving behind any past grievances.

Unfortunately, Paradise seemed to be unforgiving in this matter.

Orion replied loudly. “It seems you don’t understand. I don’t care about your reasons for being here. I want to know if you are willing to step down from your position and surrender your Runaway Cities or refuse and face the consequences of your actions? Choose wisely because I must advise you that based on your decision, only a few of you may survive the consequences,” His voice booming and echoing across the surroundings.

The two leaders felt a shiver run down their spines, their skin tingling with unease. They held back the words they wanted to say, realising their next words would seal their fates.

Beside them, Stronghold Leader Zogar realised that the Vylkr vines encroached faster toward them as the gods’ chosens remained motionless, bowing their heads alongside their leaders. He raised his hand and activated his gift, causing the earth to tremble like a calamitous force descended from the heavens.

To the astonishment of everyone present, cracks appeared in the ground, and three pillars of walls, every sixty centimetres in width, rose from the earth, connecting in all three cardinal directions and reaching skyward. A cloud of dust billowed, veiling the air in a hazy mist that momentarily obscured the surroundings.

However, the individuals present were far from ordinary; they possessed the ability to see through the thin veil of dust. As they beheld the massive shadows cast by the towering walls, stopping only about ten meters below the heads of the Wanderlust Traveling Tortoise Runaway City and the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, their faces turned pale with realisation.

Even Seig and the others, who were already aware of the Key leaders’ abilities, couldn’t help but gulp in bewilderment as their understanding of their strengths was once again refreshed.

Outside, the Vylkr vines could only crash against the thick walls, unable to pass through to devour the lives within.

They could only slither and gradually pile up against one another to cross over, but their efforts were futile. Thick blocks formed on the surface of the walls and smashed against the vines, crushing them to death before dissipating. New blocks formed on all sides, and the one and two-star Vylkr vines were crushed outside.

It was a sight that inspired awe!

However, no one within the enormous towering walls could witness it. All they could hear was a mighty force continuously hammering against the earth with increasing intensity. Whether it was an object or a being remained a mystery they couldn’t answer. They were all utterly speechless, gobsmacked by the immense display of power.

One thing that left them bewildered was that this was done by one of the masked figures. Emperor Lakul gritted his teeth, finally understanding their powerlessness before the forces before them despite their immense numbers.

With his shoulders dropping low in defeat and his fists unclenched in resignation, Emperor Lakul’s voice quivered as he spoke, “I, Emperor Lakul of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, at this moment relinquish my authority and surrender my position to Paradise.” His words were heavy with defeat as he lowered his head even further.𝗳re𝘄𝐞b𝗼ve𝚕.co𝗺
