Divine Path System - Chapter 749

Chapter 742 Destruction [2]

Varian tapped his finger at a castle.

A cracking sound reached every corner of the city as the abyssals watched their duke’s castle get devoured by a huge crack in space.

The next moment, they felt tremendous pressure on their bodies before they broke down into flesh and blood.

“Next.” Varian wasn’t stopping.

More and more dukes began to die in his hands.

In the end, the archduke sent level 9s to the dukedoms that were likely to be attacked.

Varian and Sia encountered a level 9 abyssal when they were about to attack a city.

Thankfully, Sia held him off for a while before the ghost ship got away from the abyssal. Then, she used her teleportation artifact and escaped.

Learning their lesson, Varian and Sia picked another target.

“The report?” Yadan, a genius prince at mid level 8, raised a brow.

He’s one of the few people ordered by the Intelligence Chief to do certain tasks. Yadan was more than happy to comply.

Yadan had a hunch that something big was going on.

“It’s a bit weird, Sir.” The officer in front of him raised his hand and presented a report.

Yadan glanced over it before frowning.

With their influence, there’s no way Mirage abyss could directly spy on Kreo. Even the next best thing—spying on the top dogs of mars was impossible.

So, Yadan did something else long ago.

He sent spies on their children. Now, these spies were friends with the children and grandchildren of the bigshots.

“This is…”

Yadan’s gaze stopped on a particular day.

It was the birthday of Mars’ President’s granddaughter. Matt Damon spoiled his granddaughter and according to her ‘friends’, he promised to attend her birthday party.

He never did.

Coincidentally, the High-general Skad didn’t drop by his favorite place to drink that very day.

‘Is it because of that impostor?’

According to the mainstream media, the woman military escorted to Kreo was actually not his daughter, but an impostor who disguised herself as Kristine.

Possible, but not likely.

‘Kreo’s eldest disciple is absent from a public meeting that he’s supposed to attend.’

This was the biggest peculiarity in Yadan’s view.

That disciple had his powers established in Uranus. Even if Kreo felt ‘betrayed’ and ‘enraged’ that someone faked as his daughter, it got nothing to do with his eldest disciple.

“Okay, say Kreo called them because he’s pissed, did they discuss the war that day?” Yadan walked out of his study and entered the balcony.

The silvery clouds in the sky shone softly, soothing the prince’s heating brain.

“The President, the High-general, the eldest disciple…”

Along with them, Yadan found that three other high-ranking officials were also ‘missing’.

Still, the eldest disciple being there wouldn’t make sense. That man was now an official of Uranus and wouldn’t participate in Mars’ war.

“…Alright, when would a disciple visit his master?” Yadan gripped the railings of the balcony.

“When he either did something great when his master did something great when his master dies when his master is in trouble…” Yadan paused.

“Maybe Kreo is in trouble?”

More likely than not, that’s impossible.

But Yadan analyzed the recent events and felt that something was off.

Even if the abyssals ‘kidnapped’ Kreo’s daughter, the army shouldn’t allow him to declare a unilateral war.

Firstly, they didn’t kidnap at all. So, there was no concrete evidence.

Secondly, what if they did? A full-scale war was a stupid choice for humans who were continuously growing stronger.

Yet, war was on the brink.

“…On the brink.” Yadan’s eyes narrowed.

Why didn’t they start the war yet?

Sure, the human side wasn’t prepared for an all-out war, but so were they.

If the humans started a surprise attack, they’d have gained an advantage.

But nope.

The humans were preparing for a full-scale war and except for a few minor skirmishes, no major war broke out.

It’s like humans were telling abyssals to also prepare for a full-scale war.

Preparations that’d take at least three days.

“Are they trying to stall time?” Yadan’s eyes narrowed.

A quote of humans came to his mind.

“Really…” Yadan’s breath turned heavy and he turned around to rush into his room.

If Kreo really had a problem, then it all suddenly made sense.

Everything would just be a cover-up!

“I should inform the Queen…”

“No, you don’t.” A cold voice reverberated in his mind before the prince felt a searing pain in his head.

As a mid level 8, the prince countered the psychic power in an instant and was about to attack the perpetrator when lightning engulfed him and burned him to ashes.

Varian’s body blurred as he sneaked into the castle through the open door.

Killing a mid level 8 prince was only possible because he sneak attacked and the prince was a mind awakener.

If it was a body awakener, Varian wouldn’t be able to kill them with the lightning strike.

A few seconds later, Varian exited the castle, drenched in green blood.

Just when he did, the city was crushed to the ground as if an invisible hammer struck it down.

This was the sixth city that they took down so far.

As they regrouped in the room after a shower, Varian looked at Sia with a worried expression.

She was fiddling with her sword with a bloodthirsty smile on her face.

More than eight million abyssals died in Sia’s hands.

No matter how weak most of these eight million were, it’s a ridiculous number.

‘The Mirage Abyss is going to be turned upside down.’

But Varian was ecstatic.

He could do this city destruction in every abyss.

Sure, he couldn’t mass kill level 8s and level 9s. He even can’t kill level 7s like they were nothing.

But what about the rest?

He could utterly slaughter them.

If the army had no soldiers and only generals, it’d crumble sooner or later.

Now, however, he had another task.

“Sia,” Varian said.

“Hm?” Sia raised her head and looked at him with her golden eyes.

“We’ve thrown enough bait, now is the time for the main event.”
