Chapter 260 - Chapter 260: Chapter 260: Old King

Chapter 260: Chapter 260: Old King
At the same moment.

In the “upper district” of the old castle, Blood Knight Lucius and his group had just used external aids to remove a significant part of the contamination within their bodies.

They were about to open the elevator, heading to the [Main Hall], when,

A Night Watchman, transformed into a cheetah, arrived here.

“Haven’t you heard the alarm? Hurry and evacuate the castle…”

Since the Night Watchman came in person to notify them, something big must have happened. People like Lucius wouldn’t stupidly ask what actually happened.

They had a faint feeling that this sudden incident was related to the newcomer.

Lucius’s team immediately followed the Night Watchman and evacuated.

In the Castle District, they found a large number of ‘Night Watchmen’ assisting in the evacuation. But these seasoned Night Watchmen seemed panicked, and the calmness that usually belonged to the formal knights was completely gone.

“What on earth happened?”

As they stepped out of the castle, Lucius paused.

Large amounts of black energy were seeping up from the ground, sticking to the castle walls. In the sky, they were condensing into a terrifying layer of black fog…slowly taking the form of some mark.

“What on earth has happened!?”

On the other side, at the town’s evacuation point.

Since the leader of the new recruits was Captain Kaimon’s beloved eldest grandson,

The carriage allocated for them was a luxurious and oversized one, with top-quality modified steam horses for traction. The speed, safety, and stability were all excellent.

In a short while,

Using his status, Abe called over Captain Kenny.

“What is it, speak quickly!”

Han Dong couldn’t possibly admit that he had attracted the “Old King” by stealing the land deed. Instead, he subtly passed over a piece of white paper and explained using Mia as a shield:

“During an accidental fall into the nest, our teammate Mia saw many marks like this inside the nest! They seem to be related to the sudden incident.”

The white paper handed over had two capitalized English letters written on it—[M.O.]

Kenny snatched the piece of paper and seriously warned:

“We of the Behemoth Knight Group will definitely get you safely back to the Holy City! No matter what happens on the way, as long as the carriage is moving forward, you shouldn’t have any other thoughts. Just stay in the carriage.

What’s about to appear will be something you can’t even begin to imagine.”

Having said that,

Kenny left the carriage and handed this intelligence to the hands of his deputy.

The only reason Han Dong did so was to remind the Knight Regiment that the “Old King” was about to arrive, and they absolutely didn’t have much time to wait.

If necessary, some people must be abandoned.

Boom!

The ground trembled.

The intense shaking even panicked the horses. A knight in the regiment, responsible for the horses, calmed them down using a beast language and his own ability.

“Everyone mount up!”

Deputy Leader Heidler couldn’t bear it any longer, continuing to wait was not an option.

Some Apprentice Knights who had gone deep into the soundproof areas could not hear the alarm… even if the Night Watchmen were sent to find them, they might not be able to find them quickly.

Boom!

Again, this tremor was even more powerful.

At the same time, a giant crack appeared in the “Graveyard District”.

The crack ran horizontally through the entire hill on which the castle was located.

The black fog in the sky gradually condensed into an image of a ‘Withered Arm’.

What happened next would be forever branded in the minds of all those involved in this training and those responsible for the training.

In the crack in the ground,

An immense arm that was indescribable in words suddenly extended out.

This arm was exactly like the ‘Withered Arm’ mark that Han Dong had seen… just this single hand completely covered the castle where the Great Lord Stuart resided.

Billions of inky-green tentacles writhed on the pitch-black palm,

The flesh of the palm embedded with millions of skull heads,

As this hand belonging to the “Old King” emerged from the ground, countless wails emanated from the skulls.

The hand pressed down.

Boom!

The ancient castle, which required a considerable amount of time for the Apprentice Knight Squad to explore, was instantly jeopardized.

A few Apprentice Knights, who were still in the castle or adjacent areas and couldn’t escape in time, couldn’t possibly survive such a ‘disaster’.

Even if they weren’t crushed to death.

They would be instantly contaminated by the advanced pollution from the hand, decaying and corrupting their bodies.

Yet such a press down was merely an opening, the ‘Old King’ under the ground needed to slowly extricate his body.

“Everyone, evacuate!!”

Heidler’s voice rang into the ears of each knight, liberating them from the oppression brought by the giant hand.

After the last few members of the Knight Regiment and Apprentice Knights got on board, the entire crew withdrew.

The luxury carriage carrying the new recruits dashed at the front of the team.

The second platoon leader of the Behemoth Knight Group, “Vulture – Kenny,” was crouched on top of the carriage, ensuring the safety of these important new recruits.

In such a sudden situation, the safety of Captain’s beloved grandson must be ensured…..

“I didn’t expect this thing to show up…..”

Inside the carriage.

Han Dong and his group could see the terrifying scene of the giant hand appearing through the window, which served as “glasses”.

Apart from Dumps who looked at Han Dong with a surprised look, all other members were pretty shocked to some extent. Even Mia was tightly clenching her teeth, no longer as usual.

She knew very well that all this had to do with Han Dong.

Mia held her mouth close to Han Dong’s ear, her face slightly distorted.

“Why has it come to this!? This operation is not led by Kaimon, and the vice-captain Heidler is not good at group operations. Once we are caught up with, we’re all dead!”

“I don’t know either… things happened so suddenly, hope we can escape back.”

“I hate you!”

“Let’s talk about that when we get back.”

During Han Dong’s conversation with Mia, his eyes did not leave the rear window for a moment… he was constantly observing the situation in the direction of Stuart Manor.

The hand alone was as big as a castle.

Han Dong could not imagine how gigantic the “Old King”, referred to as “Mo” by the yellow-robed man, would be.

Even if the speed of the steam carriage could match the driving speed of a car in his previous world.

It’s nearly impossible to escape from the manor located sixty-nine kilometers away to the Holy City with such a giant chasing after them.

By the time the Old King fully emerged.

The indescribable black silhouette had completely blanketed the sky above this area.

It was not just Han Dong and his group.

The entire Gain Forest was about to witness the greatest catastrophe in ten years.

“Everyone transform into beasts!”

Vice captain Heidler ordered at this moment.

All the knights from the Behemoth Knight Group transformed into their corresponding wild beasts according to their bloodline, joining in the brigade pulling the carriage, making the speed a bit faster.

Also at the same moment.

Caw, caw…

A wave of crow caws was heard from the woods.

Han Dong first caught sight of a crowman standing on the branch of a nearby tree.

Following that, ten, hundreds… tens of thousands of crowmen appeared one after the other, all converging in this area.

Seeing this, Han Dong couldn’t help but smile, “These cowardly crows, do have some uses then …”
