Chapter 1276 Are you ready to answer a few questions I have?
…
"I am glad that we can all gather here."
A man wearing a black cloak spoke up.
He was inside a dimly lit room where he couldn\'t even see the appearance of the rest of the people standing beside him.
"To think a mere Semi Saint would have enough influence to stop all our operations. Aren\'t we giving him too much attention?" Another being spoke up.
Maybe it was one of the functions of the cloak these people were wearing, but all these people seemed to have the same, genderless voice.
Identifying any one of them seemed impossible.
Heck, despite being in the same room, even these people didn\'t know the identity of the one next to them.
"Are you doubting the higher-ups decision?"
Another voice was heard.
"Huh? Of course not. I simply do not understand why we are letting a mere child walk all over us."
"A mere child?" The voice chuckled.
"Why don\'t you try appearing in front of that \'mere child\' then? I would love to see you fight him."
"You…"
Of course, the voice didn\'t have an answer.
He was only a Complete Semi Saint.
That monster even defeated a Complete Saint, how was he supposed to face him?
However, this time, he received support,
"He isn\'t wrong. We probably cannot defeat him, but the same isn\'t true for them. Even an incomplete Divine is enough to beat that boy into submission yet we still aren\'t making any moves."
"Exactly. That is suspicious. I feel like there is something we do not know."
More and more voices were raised until,
"Don\'t act clever. You are nothing more than a tool.
There is something that you do not know?
A tool does not need to know anything.
You are only supposed to do what you are ordered to.
And even if you do wish to question the higher-ups\' orders, at least consider all the possibilities before uttering the nonsense you utter.
Vyriana kneeled.
A woman as arrogant as her knelt down in front of those two humans, their presence not only pressured all the Divine Stage Cultivators present near the Trail that day, but even our Cultivators hiding their presence were affected.
Not just that, they were specifically targeted and none of them had recovered after receiving the damages from those humans.
Do you even understand what that means?
First, they sensed their presence even after the Artifacts were used.
Second, they knew that we were enemies, yet they didn\'t kill them. They completely ignored us, the Black Order.
Those people are strong, again, Vyriana knelt in front of them, yet they are people we do not even know the names of. Complete unknows.
Who they are? What sort of existence were they? What kind of strength do they hold? How many beings like them, or people even stronger than them exist?
We have no answer to any of these questions.
Do you think we can operate freely in that situation?
Do you think we can \'target\' the boy when those two monsters are there right next to him?
The very fact that people who have never appeared before appeared because of that boy makes him different from the rest of the Semi Saints.
His value exceeds us by a large margin, it is obvious that the higher-ups would be careful around him.
Even now, all the operations in the City of Clans, Lust State, Feline City, and the Elven Kingdom have been canceled just because these places have connections with them.
Even the Blood Kingdom, although the operations there weren\'t canceled because of the sheer importance that place holds, the operations there have been limited to a big degree, and a large number of our experts there have been recalled.
Do you now understand the importance that \'mere\' Semi Saint holds? Or do you wish to have a meeting with the higher-ups and explain to them how to make better decisions with your clever mind?"
The words spatted here were harsh.
The man who was the target turned silent. It wasn\'t visible, but with how he was clenching his teeth in frustration, it was clear that he had no answer to these harsh words.
He was narrow-minded.
Not just him, all the others who were supporting his statement had now turned silent.
A deafening silence fell over the place.
It was only after an entire minute had passed that one person finally broke the silence.
"Alright, we should now proceed with what we were gathered here for."
To get out of the silence, everyone in the room nodded.
Morwen nodded as well.
She was finally able to return to where she belonged after that incident, now, she didn\'t want any problems with her new mission. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Honestly, all the time these people were talking, she was one of the few who didn\'t speak a single word. She just wanted to know what her mission was and get over with it.
There was no need to blabber all this nonsense, they were all tools, their job was to complete missions, not discuss decisions the higher-ups made, and now that things were finally proceeding in the direction she wanted them to, she couldn\'t be happier.
"I will now be giving all of you your missions. Some of these are individual missions while others require a team. For team missions, just like always, your teammates are already chosen beforehand, you simply need to follow your part and complete the mission.
I shouldn\'t have to say it, but, we do not accept failures, is that clear?"
A voice spoke.
"Yes."
Everyone nodded in tandem. It was almost all these people who were fighting a few moments ago were hypnotized by some force and had turned into mindless robots.
The voice nodded,
"Now, Nexus, come forward and receive your mission."
The voice spoke as a scroll flew towards the woman called Nexus. The contents of the mission were already hidden. Others had no need to know.
Of course, Nexus was also merely the code name of the woman, none of the people here knew her real name or identity.
While the missions were being distributed, Morwen patiently waited for her turn.
It wasn\'t like they were allowed to leave once they received their missions, so there was no need to hurry in this situation.
Just being able to safely receive the mission was enough.
A wish that, this time, won\'t be fulfilled.
"Hmmm, this got boring very quickly. It was better when you people were fighting each other, that was much more entertaining to watch."
While the missions were being distributed, a calm, playful voice was heard.
A voice none of the people here recognized, a voice, that was different from the default voices they were using.
An intruder.
In an instant, all the people turned towards the direction the voice came from and their eyes widened in horror when they realized who the voice belonged to.
It was a man they knew very well.
A man they were just discussing about.
Nux Leander!
\'W-What is he doing here!?\'
Morwen was shocked.
The same was true for the rest of the people here.
\'Attack!\'
In an instant, a decision was made.
Why he was here? How did he know where this place was? Was there a Spy within their ranks?
All these questions needed answers and they all will be answered when they capture this man in front of them. All the consequences of their actions were a topic of another day.
Right now, capturing this man was extremely important.
Nothing needed to be said, all the people here moved, rushing towards Nux, however, the moment the strongest person present in the room, an Incomplete Divine Stage Cultivator reached Nux, he froze.
Not just him, but the rest of the beings present here were frozen as well.
*Step* *Step*
More footsteps could be heard.
The people of the Black Order panicked, Nux, on the other hand, had a big smile on his face.
"You didn\'t think I would barge into a place the enemy is gathering in alone, did you?"
The three Divine Stage Cultivators of the Black Order had horrified looks on their faces, they could tell why they all froze.
The pressure that was descending on them…
It didn\'t come from just one person…
Inside this room…
20 Divine Stage Cultivators had come for them…
There was no chance to escape, heck, even taking their own life was difficult. Their body was completely locked up due to overbearing pressure coming from 20 Divine Stage Dragons who had surrounded them, even cutting off their own tongue was impossible.
As for using their Life Force…
Well, in front of this monster… that would only work against them…
Seeing all these horrified expressions, Nux couldn\'t help but smile.
"Now then…"
He started as he stretched his body,
Then, he stared at the man who was about to reach him, and,
"Are you ready to answer a few questions I have?
I am quite curious about your Black Order, you see."
