Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem
Chapter 1487 - 502: Upheaval in the Royal Palace, the Watcher Descends!
Even their Ice Crystal Kingdom did not have such powerful mages.
And the several strong individuals he brought with him exuded a similarly terrifying aura!
After analyzing a bit, Kro came to a shocking realization.
That was, he couldn’t defeat a single one of them.
However, Cao Xing did not remain explosive for long; in just a moment, he reined in his magic power.
The bone-chilling cold disappeared.
Outside, Assam and others also ceased releasing their aura.
"Is this power enough?" Cao Xing asked.
There was a look of appreciation in the Old King’s eyes.
"Impressive, among the Otherworldly Lords, it’s rare to have a strong individual like you."
"With the strength you and your subordinates possess, it’s enough for us to become allies with the Ice Crystal Kingdom."
After speaking, he waved his hand casually.
In an instant, all the furniture in the room that had turned into ice sculptures reverted back to their original state.
This move was rather stunning.
It also raised Cao Xing’s estimation of the Old King’s strength by several levels in his heart.
The Old King first glanced at the young man beside him, then said.
"Gal, you may leave first."
"Yes." The young man respectfully excused himself.
Soon, only Cao Xing, General Kro, and the King remained in the room.
After a moment, the Old King slowly spoke.
"Now, let’s talk about the cooperation."
"I suspect you’ve already guessed that this time when I went out, not only did I find numerous distributions of the Bright Church."
"I also discovered the location of the Bright Church Headquarters!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Xing’s eyes narrowed instantly, a trace of joy emerged in his heart.
"Next, General Kro and I plan to discuss a raid plan against all Bright Church strongholds."
"Although we can’t catch them all in one go, we can still deal a heavy blow!"
"But as you mentioned, the Ice Crystal Kingdom has too many enemies."
"Currently, much of the kingdom’s forces, along with those seventh and eighth-level warriors, are caught in the conflict at the border,"
"Unable to spare enough troops for this operation."
"Your inclusion, I must say, comes at the perfect time."
The Old King shifted the conversation and then asked: "On your side, how many master-class warriors can you deploy at most?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Xing fell into thought.
Clearly, the Old King was probing his capabilities.
After pondering for a moment, he extended two fingers.
"Eleven."
Upon hearing this number, the smile on the Old King’s face grew wider.
Beside him, General Kro deeply regarded Cao Xing again.
Not all warriors above the sixth tier are deemed masters.
What they referred to as masters were warriors with at least leader level potential!
Eleven masters might not be a lot for the Ice Crystal Kingdom.
But for a Lord, this was already an exceedingly formidable force!
Moreover, they knew well that Cao Xing was surely holding back.
He definitely had more than 11 masters.
Yet the Old King did not pry further but said: "With your forces, there’s certainly more confidence."
After a pause, he leaned back on his chair, contemplated for a moment, and then said.
"Alright, you head back for now."
"I’ll discuss the detailed operation with General Kro, and at that time, I’ll notify you of the specific action time."
Cao Xing didn’t leave immediately but asked: "Your Majesty, at the start of the operation, can my side be in charge of attacking the Bright Church Headquarters?"
For this request, the Old King contemplated for a while, then replied again: "I will consider that."
"However, the Bright Church Headquarters is not simple."
"Inside, there is an incredibly powerful force that according to my senses might have reached Legendary Level."
Cao Xing was slightly startled inwardly.
This was the first time he heard of this intelligence, that there was a legendary creature actually residing at the Bright Church headquarters.
Luckily, he didn’t recklessly charge in; otherwise, he would have bumped into a legend, which would lead to chaos!
"Understood, Your Majesty."
"You and General Kro discuss further; I will return and wait for your news."
The Old King nodded slightly.
"Alright, regarding the teleportation array privileges you needed, just head to the kingdom’s perimeter and find Officer Ashdon."
"Eternal Frost Main City has four teleportation arrays; have him open them for you altogether at that time."
"Tell him that it’s my command."
A smile appeared at the corner of Cao Xing’s mouth again.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the manor’s exit.
Just as he was about to push open the manor’s door.
Suddenly, an earth-shaking explosion echoed in his ears!
"Boom!!!"
The explosion was extraordinarily intense, causing the entire kingdom to experience severe tremors.
The three people inside the room all showed slight changes in their expressions.
Cao Xing halted his steps and turned his head in confusion: "What happened?"
Kro’s face turned unpleasant, his tone was grim: "It seems to be the royal palace prison area."
"Someone is fighting there, and it seems no less than the seventh rank!"
"Damn! Could it be that guy escaped?"
His tone was exceedingly anxious.
Yet the Old King appeared quite composed, waved his hand and said: "Kro, go and see what’s happening."
"Yes!"
With those words finished, a terrifying force erupted from Kro!
Then, like a beast unleashed, he charged out of the manor at the fastest speed, heading deep into the palace.
The Old King calmly rose from his chair.
"Let’s go, we’ll go out and have a look together."
Cao Xing was utterly puzzled, as he was just about to receive the privileges and head back to his territory immediately.
