Golden lights!
The entire sky was covered in a golden glow!
It was like the blazing sun had suddenly released an all-encompassing blinding light!
At this moment…
Maxwell was very excited.
He had never seen so many bosses bunched up together like that. They practically covered the entire sky, and each of them had a blinding golden glow that denoted their power. How could Maxwell not be excited about this?
He was basically excited to the max!
He was getting a headache this past month trying to figure out where to kill monsters to level up. Wasn't this delivering XP right to his doorstep?
"Hahaha…"
"My good days have come." Maxwell was laughing wildly and was just about to rush towards it when…
Blindman Dale rushed over and exclaimed, "Dragon head, something bad has happened! Outside the Capital City, a large group of powerful, unknown creatures has appeared. They are killing any people they see and will be arriving at the Capital City soon!"
"Huh?"
"Dragon head, why do you seem very excited?" Blindman Dale asked in confusion.
Maxwell grinned and said, "Round up our brothers and let's kill our way over!"
"Waaaa!"
"No wonder you are so excited. Now I'm excited too from your words. Constantine and the others are already outside the palace waiting," said Blindman Dale with excitement rising.
Maxwell then said, "It looks like you guys can't hold back either. That's good; accompany me out there, and we'll kill to our satisfaction!"
Just when Maxwell planned to leave…
Arthur rushed out and shouted, "Maxwell, hold on!"
Arthur had an anxious look and a belly full of fire. He then said in seriousness, "I have no idea which asshole with nothing better to do decided to open up the Devil Sealing Array. This has caused the Capital City to fall into precarious times."
"Your Majesty…"
"What are your plans?" Maxwell directly asked.
Arthur frowned in thought briefly before saying, "Close up the Capital City, guard the gates with our lives and wait for support!"
"Wait for support?"
Maxwell was surprised by this since he couldn't understand the decision. Based on Arthur's domineering personality, he couldn't say such words as waiting for the support of reinforcements. He should be saying, "Open the city gates and lead the palace guards to kill their way out!" But he didn't actually say this.
He didn't have this intention at all.
He had called out to stop Maxwell because he didn't want him to go out.
There was a faint trembling to Arthur's voice as he said, "It's not enough if it's just based on my Capital City's strength. You don't understand what kind of monsters these devil fiends are that have been sealed within the Devil Sealing Array. Even though they aren't of the devil race, they each possess some special heaven-defying abilities that make them incomparably tough. The Devil Sealing Array has existed for over ten thousand years, and even the strongest devil race back then didn't dare to open it. I thought that after ten thousand years, no one would be capable of opening the Devil Seal Array, yet I didn't imagine…"
"I never imagined someone could break the array!"
"Who knows if it was intentional or not? If this was intentional, then this person wants my City to perish and have my Kingdom destroyed."
"Reporting!"
"Your Majesty, 120,000 Royal Palace Guards have assembled!"
"Reporting!"
"Your Majesty, 200,000 Black Dragon Legion soldiers have assembled!"
"Your Majesty, we are all ready and awaiting your orders!"
"Boom!"
A loud sound was heard inside the depths of the royal palace.
A beam of heavenly light shot into the sky before curving down to the ground in a powerful manner. Explosions sounded in the air as a 30-something-year-old man descended into Harmony Palace. The man then calmly asked: "What's going on?"
Arthur had a respectful expression as he said, "Virtuous one; someone broke the Devil Sealing Array, and devil fiends have rushed into the skies. I'm afraid the Capital City…"
"Devil Sealing Array?"
The middle-aged man's countenance faintly turned gloomy. There was a hint of trembling to his voice as he said with a frown, "No matter what, your Kingdom has allowed me to cultivate royal qi for several centuries. I will not leave you guys hanging, but…"
The tone of his voice faintly changed.
He continued: "But I will only be responsible for the royal palace's safety. Anything outside the City, or even if they break into the City, I will not participate in it. Everything else will depend on you."
"Why don't you just directly say you're scared?! Speaking a bunch of crap at a time like this."
"From the way I see it, you will immediately run away the moment the city gates are broken through! Yet you still dare to spout crap about protecting the royal palace?!" shouted Maxwell with disdain. He completely looked down on this so-called virtuous one.
He widened his eyes and shouted: "Where did this dog thing come from?! You dare to act presumptuously in front of this seat? Scram outside!"
A powerful force surged out…
Kicking up a large amount of wind.
Blindman Dale was forced to retreat outside.
Maxwell roared internally: "Level 5 Overdrive!"
"Boom!"
His powers sank.
Arthur's expression turned to shock as he quickly blocked in front of Maxwell. He then respectfully said, "Please cease your anger. He is my son-in-law, so please don't get angry."
The Virtuous One widened his eyes and finally retrieved his powers. He then said in irritation: "If you dare to act presumptuously in front of me next time, I will directly shatter you into powder!"
Maxwell was annoyed as well.
The Evans Kingdom had provided this guy with royal qi for several centuries. Now that the Evans Kingdom was in trouble, he showed a "this has nothing to do with me" expression and said he would only protect the royal palace. Once the City has been broken through, he will definitely be the first one to run away.
Maxwell was especially annoyed with these types of people!
As they were conversing…
Another loud noise was heard coming from the depths of the royal palace.
A beam of light shot into the air before disappearing off into the horizon.
Arthur's expression sank as he unconsciously clenched his fists.
There was a slight change to the Virtuous One's face as he revealed a happy smile. "Humph! I originally planned to return a favour to the Evans Kingdom after emerging from closed-door seclusion. Who would've imagined that a dog would instead ridicule me? Whatever, we'll consider this a sign of the end of our relationship."
"Shameless!"
Maxwell once again started scolding: "What kind of dog's fart are you?! From the way I see it, you're just nothing more than a timid mouse afraid of death! Just a Devil Sealing Array, and you're scared to this degree? Are you still even an expert at the Saint rank? You're a shame to all experts!"
The eyes of the Virtuous One glared in anger as a powerful force surged out of his palms.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
At this moment, sounds of explosions rocked the skies from the southeastern direction. An exceptionally powerful stream of energy shot out and enshrouded the entire Capital City.
The Virtuous One's expression changed. He retrieved the power condensing in his palm and coldly said, "Damn dog thing, there's no need for me to make a move since you won't live past today anyway."
After saying that…
It was like his mother gave birth to him with extra legs, as he disappeared without a trace.
The higher the cultivation of those people, the more they feared death.
They had cultivated from a few centuries to over a thousand years. The longer they cultivated, the more they feared death because they all understood one single thing – dying meant everything would be over.
When facing the unparalleled devil fiends inside the Devil Sealing Array, the Virtuous One became incomparably scared and immediately escaped without a trace.
He wasn't the only one.
From the depths of the royal palace, several beams of light shot into the air and disappeared into the horizon as well. Those so-called experts, enshrined for several centuries, had all left without a single one staying behind.
Arthur started smiling.
It was a very bitter smile. "Who would've imagined that the enshrined experts of my Kingdom would have this kind of virtue. Could the Evans Kingdom really be destroyed in my hands? A ten-thousand-year kingdom is going to be destroyed in my hands – how am I going to face my ancestors like this?"
Saint rank experts had run away, so one can easily imagine how powerful the devils and demons that were inside the Devil Sealing Array were.
Maxwell's heart sank, but then he shouted: "Let me command all the troops! Isn't it just monsters besieging the City? I have countless tactics to deal with them!"
He was getting excited internally.
The potential for XP would be huge if the monsters were really going to attack the City.
I'm rich! I'm rich!
This time, levelling up will be as fast as flying…
