Chapter 166: The Emerging Demon Lord
The atmosphere inside the Blue Kingdom was as lively as possible. For the past few days, a news had been especially popular inside the kingdom.
The emergence of a new Demon Lord—this news appeared out of nowhere and then spread like wildfire. All the newspapers were filled with that one single demonic image.
The photo of a single person killing thousands—those horns, those red eyes, and that terrifying presence—it was clear that he was a terrifying demon, and he was portrayed as the enemy of humanity, who was said to have killed thousands of innocent humans for no reason.
Every person was talking about him, though only a little was known about this person. His appearance, name, and a little about three women who were with him.
As Vritra approached the large gate of the Blue Kingdom, he paused in the sky and was surprised by the heavy security. Hundreds upon hundreds of guards were lined across the boundary. There were a lot of legion-ranked guards, too—many among them were wearing different uniforms than the kingdom guards.
Clearly, many other powerful people had entered the Blue Kingdom along with their large armies. Vritra could guess that it might be because of the emergence of the Scarlet Inheritance—that thing contained a huge treasure.
Vritra had obtained its map before. Although its location was clearly known to everyone, that map even showed all the traps, directions, paths, and much more. It could have been very useful but...
The danger associated with this inheritance was way too high. There was no way Vritra could contend against Yasmine or Demon Lord–ranked people just yet, so he had no choice but to give up.
But he still possessed the map that could help him find the 20th ranked Mythic Halo, which was enough.
