Chapter 1448
Since the Insect Ruler’s uprising, the cordillera in Murrfield was managed by the military, making it hard for ordinary people to enter or leave easily.
“Alright.”
After hearing the news, Andrius had everyone change into Murrfield attire and proceeded to the small path that Kevin Leach had taken him through when they entered. They went straight to the cordillera, ready to make a direct assault.
Kate suggested, “Andrius, the Insect Ruler has many powerful experts under his command, with several Martial Gods and even some Martial Saint insect soldiers. It’ll be extremely difficult to deal with them. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“With our small group, it might be hard to deal him a fatal blow. How about I call in the experts from the Medicine Sect?”
Kate’s concerns were not unfounded.
The cordillera was the Insect Ruler’s stronghold. Who knew what existed inside?
“No.” Andrius said confidently, “War is full of deception.
“The Insect Ruler had just returned from Mount Albus and must be recuperating now. He definitely wouldn’t expect us to rush in from thousands of miles away and strike him directly. We’re banking on taking him by surprise.”
Everyone silently nodded.
Sure enough, Andrius was the Wolf King. He understood the tactics of warfare well. An ordinary person would surely not think of such things.
Everyone quickened their pace and headed toward the location of the Insect Ruler according to the intelligence—Starsnatch Cliff on Skywolf Peak.
At night, the moon in Murrfield was exceptionally bright. Under the boundless silver brilliance, occasional wisps of clouds added a touch of loneliness and desolation to the night.
At the foot of Skywolf Peak was a very steep and majestic mountain. It towered over magnificently, making people look up in awe and marvel at the wonders of creation and natural miracles.
On the mountaintop, even though it was far away, a tall tower that reached into the clouds, Starsnatch Tower, was still visible. It was where the Insect Ruler usually stayed, and its name meant ‘plucking the stars from the sky’.
“So, that’s Starsnatch Tower. It does look rather imposing.” Andrius looked at the grand tower, his eyes filled with coldness. “It’s a pity that the likes of the Insect Ruler are using it as his base, attempting to establish a new dynasty and dominate the world... It’s simply a contamination!”
Luna, Kate, and Halle all agreed.
Along the way, the scenery in Murrfield was endless and breathtaking, making people linger and forget to return.
Unfortunately, because of the Insect Ruler’s ambition, the place had seen countless wars, killings, and bloodshed, causing people to be filled with indignation.
While Andrius and the others were taking a short break, a pair of eyes locked onto them.
At Starsnatch Tower, the Insect Ruler had been recuperating after returning from the Kleins’ treasure trove.
“Sir—” Suddenly, a subordinate came in hastily. “Insect Ruler, we just received news that the Wolf King has led some martial realm experts to the foot of Skywolf Peak.”
“What?!” The Insect Ruler was shocked. “Andrius has come to Skywolf Peak?”
Skywolf Peak was his stronghold.
“Quick! Summon the four elders for an important discussion.”
The Insect Ruler was not afraid of Andrius. He was worried that unexpected incidents would occur during the revival of the Demon Emperor.
“Yes!”
The subordinate immediately went out.
Before long, four elderly figures walked in.
One looked withered with wrinkles crisscrossing his face like ravines. He was the First Elder of Murrfield.
Another had a hooked nose and triangular eyes. It was clear at a glance that he was a very difficult character. He was the Second Elder of Murrfield.
As for the Third and Fourth Elders, one was short and fat while the other was tall and thin. They both looked very strange.
“Insect Ruler, I heard that the Wolf King of Florence has come to Skywolf Peak?”
“Skywolf Peak is the sacred mountain of Murrfield and must not be invaded by outsiders. How dare people from Florence dare to invade it? Even if he’s the Wolf King, I’ll kill him without mercy!”
“We will give them an unforgettable lesson.”
“Skywolf Peak belongs to Murrfield and must not be touched by outsiders. Anyone who violates it shall be killed without mercy!”
The four elders were all indignant upon hearing the news.
The Insect Ruler said in a low voice, “You might not be aware, but the Wolf King has already set foot on the first Divine Step despite his young age. He’s extremely powerful and hard to deal with. Furthermore...”
