Chapter 275 Wisdom?
"Total annihilation? Total annihilation!"
"An entire Sky Force, along with three Wolf Knight squads, were wiped out by Belial Twilight, even before he transformed..."
Muban was startled by the news from the Mage Guild, but remained calm, because he had already known the general facts through his sense magic, but he did not know that the defeat would be so complete.
Muban realized he had seriously miscalculated. Even without Zeta, Haruki had ample combat experience, and with the assistance of Belial Twilight, they dealt with a group of beasts and two newly recruited soldiers much faster than expected.
"It's one thing for Sean to be defeated by Delta Claw, but how come Zhao Yu, along with the Lord Monster and the Wolf Knights, were also wiped out?"
"What methods did Beria use during Twilight?"
"Report, it's Galactron. There's news that Belial Twilight summoned Galactron to attack the Wolf Knights. The Wolf Knights were wiped out, Shrimp Claw Lord escaped, Zhao Yu and Galactron both lost their fighting ability, and Belial Twilight fled."
Public opinion continues to favor him. Haruki's use of Galactron confirms his betrayal, and Muban can continue to control the situation, making the Monster and Magician Guilds work for him.
However, Haruki is still in great danger. The Light Magic Stone is sealed by Muban, but Galactron also has extremely strong destructive power. Once Haruki hits the Ruins, the barrier alone cannot withstand the dual attack of Galactron and Belial Twilight.
Muban could not live in peace until he got rid of Yaohui. With Belial Twilight's hatred for him, Yaohui would never let him go. Muban knew that this was a life-or-death war between him and Yaohui.
The war did indeed begin, and Muban began to spare no effort in order to win. The monster army and the Ultra Light Stones were all beings capable of conquering a world, but they were completely ineffective against that human.
"You can never win, Haruki! I'm going to turn you into my best puppet!"
"When that time comes, I will reshape the entire world! I will wipe out all the monsters and otherworldly beings without leaving a trace!"
The otherworldly beings who were watching listened coldly to Muban's speech. They always considered themselves Muban's subordinates, the high-ranking nobles of the new world. As long as they could wait for Muban to reshape the world, they would be the victors.
Before that, if they obediently followed Muban's arrangements and ignored Muban's crazy ramblings, their relationship would remain harmonious.
Muban's steps as he ascended to the high position were unsteady, and the magic emanating from his body was leaking out uncontrollably, beyond his control.
The Duke quickly helped Muban up and administered a stabilizing agent as before, atoning for his sins by assisting Muban.
Using a human body to rewrite global cognition is a stretch, and Muban, who was so enraged by Luo Yi at the time, never imagined the consequences.
Muban originally thought that with his ten years of energy fusion with the magical beasts, he would definitely become the inheritor of that mysterious power. He had hidden his true nature for far too long for this goal, and even Elifa did not know it.
"You beast! All the stuff you've given me over the past ten years has been a complete rip-off! It's utterly useless. You've been hiding all the good stuff for yourself... Cough cough, you're the one who made me like this! It's all your fault!"
The backlash from the magic caused Muban to lose his mind. His mind could no longer construct magic as before, and he could only rely on magic circles and his previous research to barely maintain his position as the guild master.
But Muban knew this couldn't last.
The phantom beast is on its last legs and could die at any moment. Once the phantom beast dies, Muban will completely lose its energy source, which may even cause cognitive chaos, leading to widespread disaster throughout the world.
Humans who lack the capacity to lose trust will become victims of the war between monsters and otherworldly beings, and may even face extinction.
Muban cannot fail, at least not before the phantom beast dies. He must become the master of the world and make humanity the ruler of the world!
Only in this way can human lives be preserved and a tragedy like that of ten years ago be prevented from happening again.
"Take me to the monsters. I must gather them again. This time, I'll have the lord and the otherworldly beings attack together. I'm determined to kill Haruki."
"But, President, your body needs healing right now. Many of your cells have become cancerous, and the situation is extremely dangerous..."
Muban kicked the chair next to him away, then slapped the text on the table onto the Duke. Muban didn't need anyone to tell him about the danger.
"Do as I say, you lowly wretch! My orders are absolute, no one can disobey! Whoever disobeys will die with us!"
The magical surge emanating from Muban burned nearby papers, and madness and hysteria were practically written on his face. In his eyes now, he cared about no one.
The Duke picked up the fallen texts one by one from the ground. He didn't want these valuable records to disappear, as they might be the only thing the outside world could know about what was happening in this world.
Faced with Muban's anger, the Duke did not panic. On the contrary, he had already witnessed such a scene no less than eight times in the past three days. Muban's riots were to be expected.
"No, don't be angry, Chairman. I've thought of an idea that can help you take down Haruki. You might want to listen to it."
"Huh? You? What ideas could you possibly have! You, a lowly person, be smarter than me!"
“I’ve never been as smart as you, Chairman. I just think that to get rid of Haruki, you don’t need to keep going through all this trouble. We can let someone else do it.”
Upon hearing this, Muban's emotions gradually stabilized. If he could, he certainly wouldn't want to issue such a self-destructive order. He didn't want to perish together with Yaohui; there was still a whole new world waiting for him to reshape.
The Duke helped Muban back to his high seat, and only after the magic on him subsided did he continue speaking.
“To deal with Haruki, all you need to do is make a slight adjustment, Chairman. You will need to use a guy who is not very obedient.”
"you are right……"
"It's Zeta."
The Duke's idea did seem possible to Muban. Zeta's condition remained unclear, and Muban still didn't know whether his perception had been rewritten.
Zeta's whereabouts have always been uncertain, but unlike Haruki, he has not openly opposed him, and Zeta's true purpose has always remained a mystery.
“I can persuade Zeta to deal with Haruki. Faced with Haruki being controlled by Belial Twilight, Zeta can't continue to let him go crazy. I'm absolutely confident that I can get Zeta to fight Haruki.”
"When Haruki and Zeta actually start fighting, no matter who wins, it will be our advantage. The one who survives will definitely be greatly weakened, and we can easily capture him then."
"Okay, hahaha, we'll do it your way!"
Muban laughed out loud, a rare occurrence for him. This was the first time he had laughed heartily in recent days, and he had finally rediscovered some of the feeling of human intelligence.
The Duke waited silently by the side, not wanting to disturb the president's emotional release, while also being careful not to be accidentally injured by the president's released magical energy.
"Go find Zeta now, and we'll proceed with the plan as you suggested."
"Then I sent the monster army and otherworldly beings to lie in ambush at the location where Zeta and Haruki were fighting, and once they had decided who would win, I went up and captured them all!"
"At that time, my era will begin."
"Yes, President will definitely get what he wants."
The Duke withdrew, and Muban continued his boastful behavior, his mind filled with thoughts of the great construction projects to be undertaken after the victory. He was convinced that he would not fail this time.
The shimmering barrier of the ruins and the presence of a group of otherworldly beings made the place extremely eerie.
But this did not cause any panic, because only the guarding monsters and otherworldly beings remained. All humans had been ordered by the guild master to stay away from the holy land, which belonged only to the Venerable Ones.
The warm light illuminates a ruin where Huilia once lived alone. The space here is exceptionally vast, presumably a battleground for colossal creatures.
While healing her own injuries, Huiliya looked at Yuuji Junsei and pondered some guesses.
There must be a reason why Muban can always track me so accurately, and the most likely reason is the Yongyi Pure Crystal. After all, it was something Muban created, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to know the whereabouts of the Yongyi Pure Crystal.
"Go ahead and spy all you want, I'm not afraid of whoever you send. Let's see how long you can keep up your arrogance."
"I'll definitely come to your doorstep, Muban. You better not be so scared that you kneel down and beg for mercy. Let me teach you a lesson on behalf of those monsters and innocent people."
Huilia's mutterings fueled his fighting spirit, and he felt no regret for what he had done.
Finding a chair at random, Haruki sat on the high platform, gazing at the empty field in the distance, clearing his mind before the next battle began.
Huilia was waiting for someone. Huilia knew that he would definitely come to him. More accurately, Haruki knew that he sensed that familiar partner was approaching him.
