Chapter 1459: Counterattack
“Finally here, huh...?”
In the starry sky, Naeverynk watched silently through his narrow, blood-red eyes as the vast federal fleet flew past in the distance.
Annihilating an entire fleet on his own would be no easy task.
But his mission was not to destroy the fleet outright. It was to delay them and guard the entrance to the Netherworld Star Domain at all costs.
Countless hidden cross-space teleportation nodes had already been set up throughout the Netherworld Star Domain.
They were not fixed points but embedded within the bodies of massive Nether Beasts.
Every victory came at the cost of lives and blood.
Netherworld had long been one of the Magus Alliance’s planes that was infamous for its cruelty, tyranny, and bloodlust.
Naeverynk, ruler of Netherworld, had never been known for being merciful. Whatever warmth his heart once held had been swallowed by darkness long ago.
A shard that looked like a broken mirror fragment floated before him.
Only when his gaze fell upon it did the infamous Commander Blood River’s crimson eyes show the faintest flicker of tenderness.
The strange, subtle fluctuation of law radiating from that shard was far more profound and suffocating than the power emanating from the Trident of Heaven and Hell in his grip.
