Chapter 289: Watching the Fire From the Other Side, the Chaotic Battle Began
On the top floor of the Star Plaza, Vincent and Irene finally arrived at their new home.
The apartment was very spacious, and there were two separate bedrooms. This way, both he and Irene could have a good sleep.
Vincent looked at the scenery outside the window and muttered, “What a pity! Right now, the Feathered Monsters and Bards are about to fight to the death. I originally wanted to invite them to celebrate our housewarming, but now it seems like they can only skip it!”
Irene did not know that Vincent was the main culprit behind the matter. She just smiled and shook her head. She replied, “The battle between Marcus and Kaeger has been going on for a long time. Usually, they would fight fiercely the day before, and then the next day, they would sit together to drink. They would even chat happily. So, if you want to invite them, it’s not impossible!”
Vincent shook his head and said, “That was because neither of them wanted to make a big deal out of it, so they had to endure the torture and sit down with each other to have a good time. But now, it’s different. Before they kill each other, neither of them will be willing to stop!”
Irene asked curiously, “Fight to the death? Why did they fight this time? How did it lead to this?”
Vincent smiled slightly and sighed, “Actually, if the two of them could sit down and chat peacefully, they would realize that there is actually no conflict between them this time. It’s just that someone is instigating them! Unfortunately, it’s absolutely impossible for them to get along peacefully anymore!”
“Someone instigated them?”
Irene looked at Vincent curiously and could not help but ask, “Could it be that you instigated them?”
Vincent admitted with a face full of frankness, “It was me! Hehe!”
Irene was not surprised at all. She only reminded him with some worry, “In the past, it was not that the two of them did not try to meet in the middle, however, once the situation was about to get out of hand, the Ultimate Evil Lord would immediately step out to mediate. So this time, are you sure that the two of them will not be able to stop fighting?”
Vincent nodded and said softly, “Of course! Because as the leader of their race, they have to take revenge on behalf of their members. Even the Ultimate Evil Lord will not be able to stop them with such reason!”
Irene was shocked when she heard this. However, she did not continue to ask because she could guess that the so-called revenge must have been part of Vincent’s meticulous plan. The Bards and Feathered Monsters have always been against each other. However, there had never been a real battle. Why would they suddenly want to kill each other?
On the main road of the capital of Ultimate Evil, a Bard was walking home leisurely. He felt an inexplicable chill in his heart as if something bad was about to happen.
He quickly turned his head to look around and found that the surrounding streets were empty. There was no danger.
But when he turned his head and continued on his way, he saw that there was another Bard in front of him!
“Hey, brother, did you just arrive at the capital of Ultimate Evil? You don’t look familiar!”
The singer sensed a strange aura from the other party, but he did not suspect anything. Instead, he asked for his identity with a smile.
The other party did not answer. He only responded with two sneers and then raised his two arms that had turned into sharp blades.
“Ah!”
A miserable cry was heard. A dead Bard was left on the streets.
The murderer who had suddenly attacked had long fled through the endless darkness.
More than a dozen Bards had died on the street that night. Similarly, more than a dozen Feathered Monsters had also died tragically when they were alone. No one knew who was behind it. They only knew that this was definitely an indiscriminate assassination aimed at the two races!
Soon, these two pieces of news reached the ears of the leaders on both sides.
The core members of the Feathered Monster Race had all gathered together at Kaeger’s office. They kept quiet as they looked at the office desk that had been smashed by Kaeger under their feet. They were reporting about their companions who had died that night.
Kaeger’s back was facing the crowd at this time. He was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He gritted his teeth and asked, “More than a dozen members have died. Did they even see the appearance of the murderer?”
The few core members looked at each other. Their faces were filled with confusion and helplessness. However, as it was the leader who was questioning them, they could only say, “The brothers who died were all between level 30 and level 35. Once they met an expert, they didn’t even have the chance to call for help. That’s why we can’t find any clues about the murderer!”
After hearing that, Kaeger turned around and narrowed his eyes. He said, “Our business has always involved outsiders. Our brothers rarely make enemies in the capital of Ultimate Evil, not to mention that more than ten low-level members died at the same time! Such a large-scale attack doesn’t seem like a revenge killing, but more like someone venting their anger!”
“Venting anger? Who would hate them?” asked someone. He was puzzled. He could not think of anyone who would hate more than ten low-level Feathered Monsters.
Kaeger shook his head and said coldly, “It’s not them, it’s someone from the Bard Race! And since the other party could not bring us down, they could only find low-level members to carry out assassinations. They would not expose their identity, and at the same time, they could vent their hatred. It’s really killing two birds with one stone!”
All the core members frowned and said with resentment, “The leader has already guessed who did it? Tell us the name, and we’ll kill him immediately!”
Kaeger snorted coldly and said, “Who else can do this besides Marcus? But it’s easier said than done if we want to kill him. Not to mention his group of b*stards. The Ultimate Evil Lord will not let us do this!”
A core member asked with a face full of unwillingness, “Then what should we do? Just endure it?”
“Why should we endure it? If it was before, I really wouldn’t know how to deal with that b*stard Marcus. But today, a friend just taught me a lesson, we will fight fire with fire!”
Kaeger’s face was grim and cold as he said to all the core members, “Isn’t he the one who started killing first? Send all our experts to assassinate the low-level Bards. Be careful and be clean. Don’t leave any evidence behind. I want to make those Bards restless!”
“Yes!”
All the core members followed his order and left. They gathered their subordinates with murderous intent, ready to take revenge on the Bards.
At the same time, Marcus and the core members of the Bards had just left the Paradise of Desire and had moved to a new stronghold.
Marcus was cursing and swearing for Kaeger to die a horrible death!
“Kaeger’s move is really f*cking sneaky! Not only did he drive us out of the Paradise of Desire, but he even brazenly assassinated our low-level members. Does he really think that we, the Bards, are easy to bully? Pass down my orders. In the future, if you encounter any Feathered Monsters who are alone, kill them all! Remember to clean up after that. As long as we don’t leave any evidence behind, I want to see what he, Kaegar, can do!”
