921 Conflic
Only McGraw and Odom, who were both McGraws, managed to use their wills to put up a struggle. However, both of them were already trembling and would be reaching their limits very soon.
The remaining employees from the television stations broadcasted the scene in the conference hall on tenterhooks. The Witch of Trepidation's actions caused countless people to be filled with righteous indignation, but they were unable to do anything. There were definitely no more than 20 people in the entire planet who would be able to suppress this Yellow Army's General.
"It's this devil again!"
"Is there no one who can suppress her?"
"Who's able to stop her? She is a General and has the Yellow Army to back her up. Right now, the fear from the several billion of people on Earth is increasing their powers."
When the people saw the Witch of Trepidation's actions and strength, feelings of dread crept up their hearts uncontrollably.
This was a habit of the members of the Yellow Army, from the Commander all the way to ordinary warriors. They would constantly spread dread to the people. This was because, for them, the dread was power.
As the Witch of Trepidation's actions were being broadcasted non-stop through the television, the Spiritual Light of Trepidation in the hall grew even greater. McGraw's and Odom's skin started to show signs of disintegrating. It was as if they would be infected by the Spiritual Light of Trepidation at any moment and then turn into Sorrowful Howls Monsters.
Just then, a stream of gray light lit up, gushing forth like a gray tidal wave and then engulfing the entire hall in the blink of an eye. Every single inch of air had been dyed gray.
An extremely strong and bright voice rang out amidst the gray light.
"Woman, this isn't the Despair Mountain Range. It's no place for you to act with such impudence."
While speaking, a middle-aged man dressed in a gray suit and had his hair combed back walked slowly into the conference hall.
At the man's appearance, countless employees from the television stations gasped.
"It's the Gray Army's Qin Wang."
"To think that it's him who has come this time around?"
"It seems that the Gray Army doesn't wish to give up on this page of the Book of Wisdom easily this time around either."
At Qin Wang's appearance, a hint of wariness flashed in the eyes of the Witch of Trepidation. She said coldly, "Qin Wang, didn't your Gray Army already give up this time around? Are you going back on your words?"
Qin Wang let out a cold snort and said, "Who are you to interfere in our Gray Army's decision?" as he spoke, a gray energy encompassed the several people from the Gray Army, and all the Spiritual Light of Trepidation disintegrated.
Under the gray glow, the Witch of Trepidation felt that everything in the conference hall had come under the other party's control. Even her Spiritual Light of Trepidation was unable to infect it at all.
'As expected of a person with unrivaled talent in the Gray Army... To think that he has improved so much within just a few years' time.'
The Witch of Trepidation's aura weakened slightly. She was merely spreading feelings of dread while making her stand in this meeting clear. She was not planning on going head-on against the Gray Army. In fact, even if McGraw and the others were unable to fend off the Spiritual Light of Trepidation, she would just toss them out and would not really turn them into Sorrowful Howls Monsters.
However, even though the Witch of Trepidation retreated, Qin Wang was unwilling to let her off easily.
He said, "Witch of Trepidation, you've harmed the warriors from my Gray Army for no reason at all. You've violated the One-Three Agreement which had been set in the past. Do you have anything to say about that?"
The One-Three Agreement was a set of regulations set jointly by the 13 armies in order to fend off external enemies and prevent internal strife.
From that day onward, anyone in the armies was prohibited from attacking each other. Killing a member from other armies would subject one to the joint attacks of all the Commanders.
However, the 13 armies had 13 different characteristics, so there were too many contradictions and conflicts. It was not something that could be suppressed with just one agreement. The agreement merely reduced the number of massacres, not the battles they needed to fight.
However, due to their desire to control as well as their ambition, the Gray Army had been working hard to maintain discipline, trying their best to uphold the One-Three Agreement.
The Witch of Trepidation's eyes narrowed slightly, and hints of Spiritual Light of Trepidation flashed on her body. "Then what do you want?"
"Apologize to them. After that, return with me to be taken into custody for a month."
"Dream on!" The Witch of Trepidation bellowed furiously, and yellow lights intertwined together. They then turned into a monster that had several hundred eyes, countless mouths, and many sharp teeth that grew out of its skin. It was as if numerous monsters had been merged together as one.
Just by seeing this monster, the countless people watching television screamed. Some of the more cowardly ones even fainted.
McGraw was taken by surprise. 'It's the Witch of Trepidation's Capricious Monster. It can bring about the Spiritual Light of Trepidation's effects just from its appearance alone. It also possesses the powers to annihilate an entire city.'
However, faced with the sudden appearance of the Capricious Monster, Qin Wang was not anxious at all. He put out his hand, and the surrounding gray light turned into a myriad of gray air currents, instantly restraining the Capricious Monster.
It was like using a fishing net to catch a huge whale. The yellow Capricious Monster struggled frantically, but it was firmly grasped by the gray air currents that were tightening more and more. In the end, with a rumble, the Capricious Monster was crushed into a myriad of light spots that dissipated and disappeared.
A hint of fury flashed in the Witch of Trepidation's eyes, but she did not react. Right now, the powers displayed by Qin Wang had already surpassed hers.
McGraw was pleasantly surprised, 'Qin Wang's control of the ring's powers is above that of the Witch of Trepidation. This is why he can crush and kill the Capricious Monster by taking it head-on.'
The many people watching the television also cheered. Numerous people who had feuds with the Witch of Trepidation hoped that Qin Wang would take action again and kill her.
However, Qin Wang would naturally not do something like this. At the next instant, a gray light wound around the Witch of Trepidation's body, and Qin Wang said calmly, "I'll have to trouble you to make a trip with me after the meeting has ended."
The Witch of Trepidation merely smiled coldly and said, "You can save these words for our Commander."
Qin Wang's expression was cold. Then with a swing of his hand, streams of gray light wrapped up the Witch of Trepidation completely, leaving only a pair of infuriated eyes to view the scene.
The remaining members of the Yellow Army were also feeling indignant. Nevertheless, they could only secretly contact the members of the Yellow Army's upper echelon, hoping for them to come up with a solution.
With Qin Wang's arrival, the hall was in order again. Many officials were lifted out, and the scene's order returned to normal.
Simultaneously, the battle also kept on being transmitted via various electromagnetic signals, giving rise to all sorts of conflicts and negotiations to be held between the Gray Army and the Yellow Army.
The Yellow Army disseminated feelings of dread while the Gray Army maintained order. To begin with, the two of them were arch enemies, and the conflicts between them had now become even more violent. The other armies who had given up on this conference were happy to watch from the sidelines.
However, in the conference hall, Qin Wang looked coldly at the ceiling with a cold gaze. It was as if his gaze was penetrating through the layers of reinforced concrete and looking at outer space.
Concurrently, the entire sky seemed to have welcomed a solar eclipse. Darkness gradually encompassed a large part of the city.
Countless streams of black air currents surged across the sky, passed through the streets, and let out mournful cries.
More black air currents passed through windows and doors. They arrived in the conference hall and gathered together, forming a blurry human figure.
