Chapter 632 Stalling
Date- 31 Mar 2321
Time- 13:43
Location- Sky Blossom City, D-rank Silver Beach gate dungeon.
Numerous identical cloaked figures with a single horn sticking out of their hood neared the restricted area, and upon reaching a certain distance, their body was torn from inside. Numerous card apprentices of the various realms ranging from Card king to Card emperor crawled out of the cold corpse.
In order to avoid being detected by array formation covering the city, the Demon cult high realm card apprentices were smuggled to the restricted area where dungeon relocation tests were being conducted.
"You made a lot of preparations for this ambush. I got to say, even though your ways are gruesome. Still, it was ingenious. I mean, who would have thought that you people would smuggle your guys past cities formation array by hiding in corpses. Tearing open the belly from inside and crawling out of it was brilliant. Color me impressed." Anna genuinely appreciated the demon cult's planning and decision to execute the ambush on her military base.
"Shut up. Do you think this is funny? All people here are going to be sacrificed to the demon realm. Is it still funny for you?" The demon cult card emperor said aloud, seeing Anna not take their ambush seriously.
"Whatever, tell me, what are you guys after? Me? No. Seeing how your people are trying to break into the military base, supposedly are you guys after something within the base? Who else could be worth more than a royal hostage like me? Luna?" As soon as Anna spoke Luna's name, Anna heard the enemy's heartbeat rise a little before going tranquil again. Proving that the demon cult's ambush was somehow related to Luna.
Though Anna figured out that the demon cult's ambush was somehow related to Luna, she still did not know why they were doing this. Was it because they wanted to avenge their fallen comrades, the Raining alchemist, by killing his granddaughter? If so, then the demon cult would have done that lot sooner. Even though Luna's grandfather had slain a lot of demon card apprentices, it was not like the demon cult's usual memo to seek revenge for their fallen members, not to mention this was a matter of decades ago.
Something related to Luna but not her grandpa. That could only mean dungeon relocation. Anna also remembered that her opponent was curious about dungeon relocation. But he did not seem interested in the silver beach dungeon, which meant that the demon cult was interested in the knowledge of dungeon relocation. Not just the knowledge behind dungeon relocation, they were also after the dungeon relocation apparatus.
Dungeon relocation is high-level classified information accessible only to those with very high privilege levels. Even with the high privilege level, only the theory behind the dungeon relocation was accessible. If one wanted the dungeon relocation apparatus, they needed a lot of pull in the central region and morning star university. Dungeon Relocation was in its infancy stage with a lot of space for improvement. Therefore there weren't many apparatus available for Dungeon Relocation. Since the supply did not meet the demand, they were highly regulated to avoid families fighting over who gets to use the apparatus and when.
The southern royal family's influence and Luna's authority in the dungeon relocation field of the morning star university were enough for Luna to get her hands over the dungeon relocation apparatus for them to transfer the D-rank silver beach dungeon to the secured location.
"You guys are after the Dungeon relocation apparatus and Luna," Anna yelled out.
"It seems that the rumors about you are nothing but false. Haha, Or was I too obvious? What gave it away?" The demon cult card emperor seemed to be in no rush to fight. Instead, he appeared to be stalling.
"It is written all over your face. From terrorizing the central region to resorting to robbery, you guys are have really fallen. Who knew that you hybrids, too, are dumb like your demon ancestors. I guess it was to be expected. After all, a donkey will only give birth to a donkey. Or, in your case, should I say a cow will only give birth to a cow." Anna's sharp tongue cut deep into her opponent's heart with her words.
Anna, too, was in no hurry to fight with the demon cult card apprentice because she trusted her soldiers could take care of themselves. And most importantly, she wanted to figure out the ambush of the demon cult. Where did they get their information from?
"At least rumors were true about you having a foul mouth. I also heard you like to have a good time? If you cooperate, I would like to find out how much the rumors about you are true." No matter how much Anna taunted him, the demon cult card emperor was holding in his rage and not engaging in combat.
"I like to have a good time, but have you seen your shelf in the mirror? No female in the world will willingly have intercourse with you. You better find a demon cow for a partner like your ancestors did. Oops, I forget even the demons despise your kind and consider you lower than the lowest creature in the demon realm. Your future is bleak, buddy. You hybrids have it tough, huh." Anna did not spare her opponent. Her words left her opponent's ancestors rolling in their graves.
"Enough! You foul woman. You should worry about yourself. Both of your mouths are looser than worn-out rubber. How will you find a partner with them? Any man would run a mile away if you brought up the word marriage in front of them. I bet your lower mouth must have eaten more sausages than you have ever eaten with your upper mouth. Yet you are still hungry for more, maybe because a human sausage can no longer satisfy your worn-out goods." The demon cult card apprentice let loose his mouth and did not hold back this time. It seems whatever he was stalling for had been prepared.
