Dark clouds covered the sky, and the light dimmed.
Xina pressed a hand on the battlements of the city wall and looked ahead in a daze.
She stood before the more than 50 meters tall city wall. Scratches from sharp claws shrouded the outer wall. It was like these claws had scratched the wall thousands of times.
On the pitch-black ground, outside the city wall, countless vast corpses lay prostrate.
Those corpses were thousand times enlarged giant insects. Their terrifying appearances were even more terrifying than the demons that had crawled out of the abyss.
The unique characteristics of prodigious limbs, poisonous fangs, sharp barbs, and sturdy bones of insects appeared remarkably ferocious.
Innumerable corpses covered the ground.
No one knew what kind of intense battle one had to slaughter all these giant insects.
One could vaguely see the sun in this dark sky. There was no day or night. One couldn’t determine the exact time from the changes in the light outside.
Xina stayed for a long time and felt sparingly confused.
She felt she had stayed half a century.
“What are you thinking about?”
A crisp voice interrupted Xina’s thoughts.
The veteran turned around and saw a lady in her early forties who wore a grayish-brown pouch.
The lady in her early forties held a slightly curved slender saber, and countless scars of various sizes filled her face.
It was like she had suffered torture.
That gave people a strong impact coupled with the high-spirited temperament on her body.
She was a warrior. The scar-filled lady earned countless glorious achievements.
Xina lowered her head slightly.
“Commander Karen.”
The middle-aged female warrior looked at Xina meaningfully.
“Are you thinking about that human overlord again?”
Xina’s face turned sparingly red. This fearless lady veteran warrior never retreated on the battlefield and dared to draw her broken steel longsword even when facing a god. She was a little shy at this moment, which was rare.
“Commander, I…”
Karen sighed before she could say anything.
“There’s no need to say anything more. The great and veteran warrior had already sworn her allegiance to that human overlord.”
“It’s only right to be concerned about the human lord and the city.”
Excitement filled her eyes.
“Speaking of which, Krina Tribe should respectfully thank that lord… We probably wouldn’t know how to lift that damn curse if it weren’t for him!”
The crisscrossing scars on the commander’s face became even more hideous at this point.
“Xina, scars are glory! Even a single scar bore the same.”
The kobold god had planted a curse in the bloodline of Krina Tribe.
The commander’s initial reaction was shock when she received the news.
That was because one hadn’t relayed relevant information to Krina Tribe.
Gratitude to Twilight City and Lord Richard filled the Krina commander’s heart when she confirmed the abrogation of the seal on Xina’s body.
They had finally earned Krina Tribe’s pursuit after millions of years.
No one could describe the emotions in their hearts.
It was a pity that the enemy suddenly pulled them into this distorted space. Otherwise, she would have long taken action with Krina Tribe.
Xina’s mood had become sparingly complicated at the mention of Richard.
She planned to leave Twilight City for a month. But she didn’t expect a delay. She couldn’t know.
‘How was the situation in Twilight City right now?’
“Xina… Are you alright?”
The veteran warrior sighed and asked after she came back to her senses.
“Commander Karen, haven’t you found any information about the kobold god in the documents of the tribe?”
The kobold god had placed a curse on Krina Tribe that passed through their generation and bloodline forever. One could imagine how much hatred there was between the two sides.
Krina Tribe could know anything.
That was especially true when the tribe incessantly inherited the curse.
Commander Karen shook her head.
“There are too many documents in the system. And the system needs time to clean them up. We can’t spare too many people right now.”
Karen turned her head and looked in a direction as she spoke.
“Regardless of why that false god has become enemies with us, it doesn’t matter now… What is important is how to leave this area, clear the curse, and how to revenge!”
They couldn’t know Twilight City had already defeated the kobold dog once.
The kobold god was still a powerful existence who controlled the rules from their point of view.
How much courage and confidence did one need to take revenge on a god with supreme divine power?
However, Krina Tribe never lacked courage.
They would draw their blades no matter how soul-wrenching the enemy was.
No one could trample Krina Tribe!
Xina nodded, and an intense fighting spirit engulfed her eyes.
“Lord once said… The kobold god was just a barking dog.”
“We will definitely return the damage it has caused us a hundredfold!”
The two lady warriors walked, and footsteps came from behind.
Two groups of female warriors led by a female heroine in white armor of Krina Tribe approached the veteran and the commander in an orderly manner.
Recently, those giant insects stopped attacking because of the blood moon in the sky.
However, the troop still maintained the highest level of vigilance.
Commander Karen sparingly nodded when she saw the heroine lead the team.
“Molly.”
The cold-faced heroine waved her hand slightly, and the two teams of warriors behind her immediately stopped as if she had pressed the pause button.
Their movements were so orderly that they looked like one person.
She walked closer to the two of them.
“Good morning, Commander Karen.”
She spoke and looked at Xina again. But the heroine’s expression was somewhat ugly.
“The lady loyal to the human overlord is talking about her master again?”
The ridicule in her tone made the Krina Tribe commander frown slightly and subconsciously was about to reprimand her.
However, Xina’s calm voice sounded before the commander could speak.
“Do you have problems with that?”
A powerful fighting spirit suddenly rose from her body as she spoke. It was like something wiped an ancient dusty saber off.
It was dazzling.
Xina sensed Molly’s fighting spirit. Molly provoked her and also exploded with an aura.
The sharp edges pressed forward.
‘Clang!’
The two sharply stared at each other, and the air suddenly exploded. Both lady warriors could hear the sound of metal and stone colliding that pierced through the eardrums.
The warriors of the Krina Tribe never retreated, even if the other party was their tribe.
The two competed against each other, but the commander would still suppress them eventually.
The aura of Karen, the tribe leader, was like a mountain about to fall. That aura forcefully suppressed the two warriors.
“Enough!”
The two couldn’t flare up this time.
However, both sides still looked at each other coldly.
Molly said with some reluctance.
“Xina, You’re no longer a member of the Krina Tribe, no matter what you have encountered outside…! You have pledged your loyalty to the human overlord!”
The veteran narrowed her eyes.
“So?”
“So, you have no right to point fingers at the future of Krina Tribe, especially… to that human overlord!”
She enunciated each word as she spoke.
“You don’t have the right to make Krina Tribe submit to that city!”
Intense anger filled her tone.
“We are the eagles that spread their wings and soar in the desert. We are the hunters that roam freely on this land. No one can make the soul of the Krina Tribe submit. Especially with a human overlord!”
That was why she was so angry at Xina.
The veteran brought the method to form the seal in her body from the outside world. That was a great thing.
Xina had even thought the gods had favored them, and Krina Tribe was about to rise.
However, Xina didn’t expect that her best friend, who had been her prized companion before she left the tribe, would seek refuge with the human overlord, who she believed was a man of low moral character and didn’t even care to spare him a second glance!
That was still bearable. The grace mainland overlord had helped the Krinas find a way to remove the seal. Xina’s loyalty was a gesture of gratitude.
However, Molly didn’t expect Xina to drag the entire tribe to join the grace mainland human overlord!
Who was the grace mainland overlord? In the past few months, Xina had come into contact with at least a thousand people before she returned to the tribe.
None had the qualities she recognized.
The Krinas were the eagles of the desert, free souls that did not submit to anyone.
How could they all join the grace mainland?
Molly would never agree!
No one knew what ways Xina used to obtain the consent of the tribe commander, Karen. That triggered Molly’s despair.
That caused her to become a great enemy of Xina, whom she cherished and had grown up with since she was young.
In her opinion, Xina would want to drag the Krina Tribe down a path of no return.
She couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.
Xina looked coldly at her former best friend.
They could not look down on the human overlord, no matter who it was. She would not allow anyone.
“Molly, you have no right to insult Lord Richard before me.”
Molly was like an enraged lioness.
She took a step forward and roared at her.
“Do I have no right? Just a human overlord? What right does he have to make the Krina submit? Just because he’s your lord?”
Xina couldn’t be angry, but her eyes sharpened.
“I’ve fought countless battles with you and witnessed the rise of Twilight City!”
“The enemies that the human overlord has slaughtered, you could never touch in this lifetime.”
“No one has the right to belittle the human overlord’s achievements.”
“Why? Everyone recognized him as the strongest among the 20 billion grace mainland overlord. Was that not enough?”
“The human overlord you belittle defeated the kobold god, the monster you think is untouchable and even unstoppable and launched several attacks on Twilight City. That lord you despise imprisoned a part of the kobold god’s soul. Is that not enough?”
“This is just the most extraordinary part of the countless battle records of the lord of Twilight City!”
“Molly, open your eyes and look at this world.”
