Chapter 1478
“Ahhh...”
“Gah...”
“Hiss...”
All those who had insects in their body let out piercing screams two seconds later. They scratched themselves, clawing at their scalps until they bled and their nails dug deep into their skin.
It was itchy and painful, but they could not stop.
“I’ll talk! Wolf King, please spare me! I’ll talk...” The Second Elder was tortured to the point of desperation and could only surrender in front of Andrius, begging for mercy.
Andrius looked at the Second Elder with interest. “Didn’t you say I was wrong?”
“No, no, no!” The Second Elder hurriedly said, “You’re right...”
This scene made Noir and the others laugh.
“Fine, I won’t make things hard for you either.” Andrius snorted and stopped controlling the insects, then asked, “Go on. What did Norvin want you to do?”
“He... He wanted us to go to Murrfield to find the Insect Ruler and collaborate with him to deal with you.” The Second Elder was frightened by the torture and did not dare to conceal anything.
Sure enough, they were going to find the Insect Ruler. Everything was going according to Andrius’ expectations. However, they did not know that the Insect Ruler was already dead!
“Wolf King...” The Second Elder said pitifully, “I’ve told you everything. Can you let us go now?”
Andrius chuckled. “I can give you a chance to live on one condition. If you work for me and cooperate with me to deal with the ancient martial families, I’ll let you live.”
At those words, the Second Elder and the others secretly sighed in relief. However, when they heard the second part of the sentence, they looked grim.
“Wolf King...” The Second Elder looked like he would rather die than surrender. “You might as well kill me now and give me a swift death.
“Joining forces with you and fighting against the ancient martial families and the Insect Ruler... There’s no chance of winning. It’ll only lead to our families being trapped. There’s no hope in sight. That option only leads to death!”
The others also shook their heads in determination.
Andrius snorted coldly. “Are you that confident?”
“Of course! The Insect Ruler has powerful troops and an army of fearless insect soldiers, as well as Martial Saint insect soldiers... Going against him is a dead end,” the Second Elder spoke confidently and resolutely. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“You’re wrong! The Insect Ruler is already dead.” Andrius sneered and dropped a bombshell.
“That’s impossible!”
“I don’t believe it!”
“With the Insect Ruler’s strength and schemes, who could possibly have killed him?”
“Wolf King, stop spreading lies!”
“There’s no way...”
None of the experts believed Andrius.
However, as they spoke, they finally fell silent. Even those who had not spoken found themselves speechless because Andrius produced an item.
It was a token that belonged solely to the Insect Ruler!
“Do you believe me now?” Andrius asked lightly.
“That’s...” The Second Elder looked at the token and confirmed that it was indeed real.
Huge waves surged in his heart, leaving him dumbfounded. Many doubts in his mind were instantly resolved.
It was no wonder Andrius acted swiftly and decisively.
It was no wonder the emperor was so evasive.
It turned out that the Insect Ruler was already a thing of the past.
In that case, it was the time to deal with the ancient martial families!
At that thought, the Second Elder broke out in cold sweat, his legs trembling.
