Chapter 606: The Scarlet King’s summoning
Dust spread everywhere as Tazan's crash into the mountain range obliterated the area. However, less than five seconds after the crash, the Duke emerged from the crater and rose to the sky.
Despite all the damage, Duke Tazan was a Late Divine Ascension Master, and his body and vitality were immensely resilient.
Duke Tazan was trying to control his breathing as he focused on General Gigant in front of him and noticed General Amalia behind. He knew he was in immense danger, but his eyes were still resolute, and any sense of fear had already vanished, replaced only by focus.
"Gigant, we have been friends since we were children and went through life and death in the army. Allow me to escape, and I assure you will never see my face again. I will leave the Hyperion Continent and never return."
Duke Tazan felt the burst of killing intent coming from General Amalia, but he was sure that as long as General Gigant did not interfere, he could escape.
A flash of sadness appeared in General Gigant's eyes as he heard Tazan's words.
Gigant and Tazan entered the Imperial Army thousands of years ago. As they fought against the Dark Races and shared blood on the battlefield, an extremely powerful friendship formed between them, a bond that felt no weaker than that of brothers.
That was why Inquisitor Gigant was so shocked to learn the Scarlet King marked his old friend as the leader of one of the Tier 0 Factions that controlled a great portion of the underworld and was responsible for millions of deaths every year.
Gigant's first instinct was to refuse the information and shout that there was a mistake with the Scarlet King's analysis, as he could not accept his closest friend to be the Ocean Lord of Ocean Wrath.
Cain was oblivious to everything that was happening with the ten Inquisitors. He only took care of obtaining the memories of the criminals through Gluttony's Eye and then sent it to the [A.I. Chip Module].
