Chapter 1093 Migration Gerald staggered to his feet, gasping for air! Atop the city wall, Valery sensed the commotion and immediately rushed out.
Seeing Geraldâs condition, she didnât hesitate and leaped down from the wall, running to his side. The life attribute instantly enveloped Gerald, healing his injuries! Gerald gazed at the Elder Swordsman in the distance!
Elder Swordsman let out a long sigh, and with a flick of his wrist, the sword landed effortlessly on his back. He appeared calm and composed, as if he hadnât exerted much effort in wielding that sword. His right hand rested on his back, looking no different than before.
âIndeed, worthy of the name Dragon Bone, youâre somewhat stronger than an average Eternal Flame Decayer, but thatâs about it,â Elder Swordsman said indifferently. âAs I promised, since youâve managed to withstand my sword, I will no longer interfere in Sylvieâs affairs!â After Valeryâs life attribute flowed into him, Geraldâs pain eased significantly. He looked up at Elder Swordsman.
He was somewhat horrified to realize that his deadly move had not caused even the slightest bit of damage to Elder Swordsman!
Is the gap between the Eternal Flame and Decayer really this huge?
It was clear that Elder Swordsman had not yet used his attribute, and Gerald had no idea how much of his true power had been unleashed. However, one thing was certain. There was indeed a vast gap between himself and the legendary pinnacle master, Elder Swordsman. Just now, I gave it my all!
He thought back to when Alcoholic killed Kristopher in the Underground Palace; it was as if there was no difference between that and killing a chicken, He took a long breath, looked up at Elder Swordsman, and said, âIâll remember this sword.â
Elder Swordsman didnât pay attention to Geraldâs words. He glanced at Gerald and said, âKid, I donât care if you were just talking nonsense or what, but Sylvieâs situation has already been exposed. Even if I let it go today, there will be others from the Eight Forces coming to find her in the future. A divination attribute simply cannot be allowed to exist. You... canât protect her either!â
Elder Swordsman said calmly, âWhen it comes to the divination attribute, no one can protect her, not even Joy. In fact, if he finds out, he might take action himself! Having said all that, itâs up to you now!â
After finishing his words, Elder Swordsman seemed to have no intention of staying in this place any longer. He turned around directly, his white clothes fluttering, and with a light and breezy step, he strode towards the distance!
Gerald watched his retreating figure, secretly realizing that although he had reached the eternal level of Flame Decay, there was still a long way to go if he wanted to stand at the pinnacle of this world and possess true authority. Nether Palace still needed to return to Earth, and if Lamont truly hadnât died, there was no doubt that he would be an even more powerful existence than Elder Swordsman and Alcoholic. What he didnât know was that after Elder Swordsman quickly left the vicinity of the Archaic Tribe Base, his face suddenly flushed red, and then a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. âThis kid!â He took out a pristine handkerchief and wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth.
Truly worthy of being Dragon Bone, he just broke through to the eternal level of Flame Decay, and both his physical body and Vital Energy have reached such an incredible extent. He completely surpasses ordinary experts in the level of Flame Decay. I underestimated him and actually got injured by him.â He cursed, âIf I had known, I should have used more of my strength.â
After finishing his sentence, he frowned and said, âAs for Sylvieâs matter, it feels like thereâs an 80% chance itâs true. Itâs really interesting. In this era, rare attributes keep appearing. I wonder if Gerald will end up being a friend or foe. Ah, the rare attribute Law of Encounter!â
As he spoke, the handkerchief in his hand began to strangely corrode and disintegrate, ultimately disappearing without a trace.
Then he finally got up, lifted his head, and moved closer in the direction of the beehive!
On the other side, Gerald walked atop the city wall. Dante let out a long sigh. Elder Swordsman has departed! For some reason, he always felt that Elder Swordsman didnât genuinely want to investigate Sylvie; it seemed like there was some other purpose behind it. He couldnât quite put his finger on it, but it was a very strong intuition.
He glanced at Gerald and said thoughtfully, âGerald, I think... we need to hurry up and search for Ingenious Needles. If we really find them, I can train more eternal Flame Decayers for the Archaic Tribe, and Sylvie will be safe!â Gerald chuckled!
Now that Sylvieâs divination attribute has been exposed, Dante will surely not keep it a secret from the higher-ups of the Archaic Tribe. With Dante being put on the spot, he has no choice but to take action.
However, what was truly on their minds, Gerald didnât know. As for what plans the higher-ups of the Archaic Tribe would make after learning this news, he was even more clueless. Itâs uncertain whether Sylvie would be willing to return to the Archaic Tribe, but Gerald would respect her wishes in this matter.
Although he had many thoughts in his mind, he still wore a smile on his face and said, âIâve just been injured, and my wife hasnât slept for days. Let me take some time to recover, and after that, Iâll set out to find Ingenious Needles!â âSo, about how to distribute things...â Dante looked at Gerald.
At this moment, his tone of speech had completely changed. Previously, he had tried to take advantage of Geraldâs unconscious state to get a larger share of the profits. Now, Gerald was aware of this, and having awakened and reached the level of Eternal Flame Decay, his combat power was unparalleled. This made him feel somewhat apprehensive! âIâll bring Sylvie and Kristian with me.
As for the final allocation, Iâll discuss it personally with you, Mr. Pierce, after we leave Promise Island. Besides, itâs been years since the explosion on Promise Island, and we have no idea how many Ingenious Needles are left,â Gerald said with a smile.
Dante nodded and said, âYes, Ingenious Needles are extremely difficult to produce. Although Promise Group claimed to have mastered this technology back then, it is said that the output was quite limited. Only a few were made over the course of several years...
âIâm going to take a break first; you guys continue to handle the aftermath!â Gerald said, exhaling. At this moment, he truly felt extremely exhausted. Dante nodded and said, âAll right!â He returned to the room, and Anabel quickly asked, âHow did it go?â
âSend them away,â Gerald said with a long sigh. âI need to rest now, Iâm too exhausted!â Allright!â Anabel said hastily, âThen you and Valery should take a break first.â
Gerald nodded, and after a moment of thought, he seemed to recall something and said, âThatâs right, after I wake up and recover, letâs head to the Core District of Promise Group. Weâll retrieve Ingenious Needles and then leave this place.â Anabelâs face lit up slightly as she said, âGreat!â
Kristianâs eyes lit up as he said, âActually... when we head back, weâll pass by Misty Mound Forest. We can check out that newly discovered base to see if thereâs anything valuable inside.â Gerald was speechless, realizing that this guy was still thinking about that place. He didnât know much about Promise Group, nor did he understand the significance of a discovered base or research facility. However, he still nodded and said, âIf thereâs a chance, we can go take a look!â
Kristian said cheerfully, âAll right, you go rest first Valery supported him as they made their way into a room inside the shipping container. The two of them collapsed onto the bed, chatted for a bit, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Gerald was exhausted and needed to recover, while Valery hadnât closed her eyes for two days straight. Once they finally fell asleep, they slept for an entire day!
Meanwhile, atop Fallen Phoenix Mountain, the people living there were busy packing their belongings, both large and small.
They then began to leave the place they had called home for thousands of years.
Carolynâs eyes sparkled with excitement. With so many skilled individuals joining, along with him and Gerald, the City of Phoenix Watchmen would experience a tremendous boost. Their pace was neither fast nor slow, and before long, they had descended from Fallen Phoenix Mountain.
After descending the mountain, Carolyn turned around and gazed at the sky filled with red leaves on the mountain. She murmured, âGerald... I wonder how youâre doing over there!â Meanwhile, on the other side, within Moores, a somewhat graceful and haggard figure was constantly weaving through. After spending more than a month, she successfully traversed Mount Moores!
Moreover, she found that ever since she reached the level of Flame Decay, she hadnât encountered any attacks from demonic beasts. Most of the demonic beasts seemed to be afraid of her when they saw her.
âSomeoneâs following me?â She furrowed her brows, then pondered for a moment before saying, âThis is a good chance to ask for directions to the City of Phoenix!â
