Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 548 - Chapter 548: Chapter 399: The Distant Other End_2Chapter 548: Chapter 399: The Distant Other End_2
Sheathing the short sword again, the Great Prince sneered, “In recent times, I have killed close to a thousand Otherworldly Lords who appeared around the Royal Capital, if not a full thousand of them.”
“These lowly Otherworlders whose strength doesn’t even compare to militias, are loyal to a national-level Tier 5 Powerhouse? It’s simply laughable!”
“Your Highness is absolutely right!”
The few corpulent aristocrats sitting at the lower end of the table chimed in hastily, “However, some of the female Otherworldly Lords, well, they’re quite decent.”
Hearing this, the Great Prince playing with a dagger in his hand while sitting on the throne, couldn’t help but pause, seemingly reminiscing some delightful moments.
“Your Highness, please listen to my words once more.”
On the other side, the Black-robed Person whose face remained hidden under the hooded cap, bowed slightly, “According to my understanding, many of these suddenly-arrived Otherworldly Lords have successively awakened incredible powers. Even though the vast majority of them are insignificant, it is still impossible to rule out extraordinary talents having awakened some kind of powerful ability.”
“After all, we currently know very little about these Otherworldly guests; thus, taking precaution in advance is always the correct decision.”
“Sir, you are being overly cautious.”
Waving his hand gently, the Great Prince, who had kept his head lowered, finally put down the short sword and raised his head, his expression full of disdain.
He appeared to be in his forties, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His goatee on his face blended seamlessly with the characteristic thick, curly hair of the members of the Coldflame Royal Family, making him look quite handsome.
However, his sharp gaze revealed an inescapable arrogance, looking down on others, and he exuded a noble air of disdain for everything.
At this moment, the Great Prince adjusted the golden crown on his head and said indifferently, “If it wasn’t for me being occupied with dealing with the Second and Fourth Princes, those Otherworlders, crawling around my Coldflame Territory like ants, would’ve been wiped clean a long time ago.”
“Not to mention, the daring new Lord of Cyan City, who stole away the territory under the protection of the Coldflame Royal Family.”
Upon saying this, a surge of killing intent emerged on the Great Prince’s face, adding, “Those who bring shame to the Coldflame Royal Family have no way out but death. Once I’m able to completely free my hands, I will personally lead the army and erase the entire Cyan Town from the map of Coldflame.”
“Of course, this also includes the traitorous Coldflame subjects who submit to others. I will use the blood of these rebels to stain the red carpet that I walk on when I’m crowned as king.”
As he finished speaking, the Great Prince abruptly drew out his jewel-encrusted short sword. Its sharp blade radiated a variety of colors, and under the reflection of the Crystal Tassel Chandelier, it emitted a chilling silver glow.
Gently swinging the short blade in his hand, the Great Prince continued leisurely, “In conclusion, no matter if they are Otherworldly Lords or harboring ulterior motives, their only fate is death.”
As the Great Prince finished speaking, killing intent and disdain appeared on the faces of the nobles sitting at the lower end of the table.
“Crown Prince, please calm down.”
The hoarse and androgynous voice sounded again, and the Black-robed Person offered a fist salute, “Nevertheless, we should not overlook Cyan Town. After all, the Fifth Princess and two Kingdom Generals are undeniably still in Cyan Town.”
“You speak the truth. I must be cautious of my lucky sister who had a fortunate escape. Originally, I agreed to let her visit Cyan Town to pit her against the enemy, but now it appears as if I’ve let the tiger return to the mountain.”
Grasping the short blade tightly, the Great Prince pondered for a moment and asked the Black-robed Person, “Sir, what should we do next?”
The Black-robed Person replied calmly, “Your Highness, first, we must immediately dispatch a team of elite personnel to secretly head to Cyan Town to investigate further. They must find out the true strength of the other party and the current situation of the Fifth Princess as soon as possible. If necessary, they can cause some commotion to lure the snake out of its hole.”
“Secondly, at present within the Royal Capital, due to our successive attacks, the forces of the Second and Fourth Princes have suffered consecutive defeats and heavy losses, almost joining forces to warm up together in mutual cooperation.”
“Hence, we must step up our efforts to sow discord between the two factions and, at the same time, infiltrate their respective forces, as well as those of the Neutral Old King Party.”
“Finally, while these two tasks are being carried out simultaneously, we can also investigate the masterminds behind the incidents at Redarrow City and Pinehaven City.”
“I concur.”
Nodding slightly, the Great Prince smirked coldly and said, “Then let’s proceed as planned, and have Sir take full responsibility for the tasks within the Royal Capital, particularly for those obstinate individuals who are still loyal to the Old King.”
“No matter if it’s wealth or women, as long as they can win their hearts, we shall spare no expense in using them, for that is a powerful force not to be underestimated.”
As he finished speaking, the Great Prince licked his lips, his cunning gaze moving about.Then, the gaze fell upon the silent knight beside him and continued, “White Knight, as for the task of investigating Cyan Town, you can have your subordinates handle it.”
“At your command, Crown Prince.”
Hearing this, the black-robed person and the White Knight stepped forward simultaneously, responding with a fist salute.
“By the way, Your Highness, there is one more thing.”
The obese noble from earlier bowed again and said, “According to the old minister’s understanding, recently the three divination agencies under the jurisdiction of the royal family – Astrology Hall, Tarot Hall, and Prophet Hall – have all issued information about a possible catastrophe in the future. How should Your Highness deal with this?”
“I have heard of this as well.”
Nodding slightly, the Crown Prince spoke impatiently, “But compared to these intangible pieces of information, I care more about the rightful ownership of the throne. Even if a disaster strikes, what does it matter if some insignificant commoners die?”
With a dismissive smile, the Crown Prince continued, “All of you must remember, Coldflame is currently in a state of internal and external strife. The other two forces lurking inside the royal capital must be dealt with quickly. As long as I am crowned king, you will all be the greatest contributors to Coldflame. Securing land and territory will not be a problem.”
“At your command, Crown Prince!”
The faces of the nobles seated below all showed a hint of surprise and delight as they bowed and knelt in response.
…
At the other end of the vast distance, after leaving Cyan Town,
Leo Ray, wearing an Invisibility Cloak and accompanied by the seven members of his party, had already exchanged greetings with siblings Solomon Rue and Sylvia Moore, and was now speeding towards Golin City.
Since all members of their group were now Tier 3 Peak or higher, their strength had vastly improved since their earlier days.
In addition, Bianca White, Abigail, and Amelia, who were all at Tier 3 Peak, were all agile-type powerhouses; their movement speed far surpassed their peers of the same tier.
Thus, it didn’t take them long.
A medium-sized city built on the mountainside soon appeared before Leo Ray’s eyes.
During their swift journey, riding atop a white giant wolf, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel a sense of exaltation as he experienced the continuous gusts of cold wind.
Back then, when he had first set eyes on Golin City, his strength was only at the Tier 2 Five-star level.
But now, his physical strength had reached the Tier 3 Peak level, unattainable for ordinary people.
Just as Leo Ray was pondering this,
His party could clearly see the banners fluttering in the wind above Golin City.
“Enter the city, don’t linger too long, and head directly to the Old Mining Area deep in the mountains behind Golin City,” said Leo Ray, opening a Mind Talk to his nearby subordinates.
“At your command, Lord!”
Immediately thereafter, the orderly voices of Taylor and the others reached Leo Ray’s ears.
Soon after, without spending much time,
Having traversed several bustling streets one after another,
They arrived in the checkpoint area located behind the city.
This place was now extremely close to the Old Mining Area.
However, at this moment, the expression on Taylor’s face suddenly turned serious.
