Chapter 2162 Mr X
The Eighteen Dark Angels were dumbfounded.
They assumed that Levi would only follow their orders after a bloody battle. They were even prepared to blackmail him.
Yet, he agreed without hesitation.
This is unbelievable! Why did he submit to us with such ease? Did he hit his head? He’s acting weirdly.
They stared at him with disbelief.
Their astonished looks caused Levi to chuckle. “Did you forget that my wife is in your hands? I’m not in a position to disagree, am I? I’m not a fool who can’t read the room. Right now, going along with your orders is my safest bet.”
Their suspicions vanished into thin air when they heard Levi’s reasoning.
After all, Zoey was Levi’s top priority.
“What about him?” The Eighteen Angels looked at Cyrus.
“I am Maestro’s subordinate. I’ll follow him wherever he goes,” Cyrus declared.
“Okay, let’s head out.”
With that, the group headed toward the Sacred Organization.
After a long voyage at sea, the cruise ship finally docked at Archulea.
However, no one knew about the truth hidden within the cruise ship.
Once it reached the harbor, a few sailors decided to investigate the ship.
To their horror, they found the Progenitor lying in wait.
Without any delay, the Progenitor started a bloodbath that stretched from the harbor to the city.
The death toll of innocent civilians who fell prey to the Progenitor’s massacre was staggering and unfathomable.
In response, Archulea dispatched their strongest warriors to combat it.
Despite their best efforts, the Archulean fighters stood no chance against the ruthless Progenitor.
Besides, Archulea was not well known for their martial artists or military strength.
Hence, they failed to subdue the bloodthirsty Progenitor.
Even after deploying their latest weapons and strongest fighters, it came to no avail.
They were simply no match for the Progenitor’s overwhelming strength.
Furthermore, the Progenitor was much stronger because it managed to feast on blood.
The Progenitor Levi and the group met back in Goldenport Island paled in comparison in terms of the terrifying strength the current one wielded in Archulea.
Archulea was at a loss as they had no options left.
At the same time, news of Archulea’s tragedy spread overseas.
Immediately, several countries allied with Archulea offered a helping hand.
After all, Archulea’s doom would bring about their own too. If the Progenitor succeeded in crushing Archulea, the other countries would also topple like dominoes.
But once again, the results were the same.
No matter how many men they sent to battle the Progenitor, the only thing that returned were the troop’s cold corpses.
Even their combined might barely put a scratch on the Progenitor’s skin.
On the brink of collapse, Archulea sent a plea to the other countries, begging for fighters all around the globe to offer their assistance.
The person who put an end to the Progenitor would receive a handsome reward in return.
Even after their message was broadcast to the world, silence was the only response Archulea received.
Everyone knew that battling the Progenitor only meant death. No one was foolish enough to go knocking on death’s door.
Only a handful of countries could stand a chance against the Progenitor. These notable countries were Zarain or Erudia.
In such turbulent times, everyone adopted the doctrine of isolationism.
Initially, the Dragonites wanted to offer their help. Hence, they brought this proposal to The Cardinal Hall.
However, Edmund rejected their proposal without a second thought.
His reasons were simple; The Cardinal Hall only existed to protect Erudia. They would not involve themselves in other matters, even more so when this was an international affair.
“Stop trying to meddle with Archulea and focus your attention on Erudia instead,” Edmund bellowed. His stern words were a clear warning to the Dragonites.
Since Erudia turned a blind eye to Archulea, the others followed suit.
Although Rodunst was in a relatively stable position, they were also in the final stages of negotiation. Despite that, they lacked experience and could not offer their help.
Back at the Lab of Gods, all of their attention was fixated intensely on Archulea’s worsening situation.
“Sir, it looks like Archulea is utterly helpless now. Even after asking for help, they received no response,” Jester King reported.
Scias, also known by his code name, Mr. X, merely laughed coldly as Archulea plummeted into disaster.
“This is the result I was dying to witness! Quick, put me on the phone with Archulea’s leader. I want to talk to him,” he ordered.
Jester King snickered. “I know what you are going to do. You are going to suggest a plan to help them out of this situation, aren’t you? However, there will be conditions they have to fulfill.”
“You are right. I’ll only help Archulea if they can satisfy all of my conditions,” Mr. X replied with a nod.
