Cursed Immortality-Chapter 721: The Three Factions in Chaos!

The conflict plains were busy with daily activities when a steep warning was suddenly issued through the Star Network.

When people first saw this ridiculous news, their first thought was something was spouting nonsense to grab others' attention. However, when they noticed the Star ID who posted this star news, no one dared to belittle or doubt the authenticity of this news because this news was posted by the Alchemy Guild President!

Moreover, shortly after, the Alchemy Guild President, the Bank Manager, the Alliance Chairman, and even the three neutral factions suddenly posted the same star news, making it impossible for others to ignore it anymore.

The star news was, [We have spotted a massive Locust army controlled by a Locust Queen, and their numbers are in the tens of millions, and the lowest rank among them is at least peak of Extraordinary Rank! This is an unprecedented disaster that has never been heard or seen by the Unique Plains! The Locust Army has already breached the boundaries of the Unique Plains, and they will make contact with the Alchemy Region first! We need all the help we can get to protect everyone! If you can fight, please fight for your loved ones! We are sending all the reinforcement we can muster up as quickly as possible, but it'll require some time! Please defend your homes until the reinforcement arrives; we hope the unique plains can escape this calamity with little loss and...!]

Not only were there startling revelations about the incoming army of locusts, but there was even a video feed showing a massive ice mist heading toward the alchemy region.

Moreover, after this news was made public, many scouts of different powers quickly headed towards the location to get more information on this matter, and soon, many live feeds were being watched all over the conflict plains.

This caused massive chaos, and many people, along with their loved ones, started to flee. However, there wasn't any way out because the Queen Ice Fiend Locust had blocked every direction to make sure her target wouldn't be able to run away.

Furthermore, she seemed to have lost her mind as her army was leaving behind a trail of icy hell, freezing everything dead or alive in their path, turning the lustrous scenery of the conflict plains into purple ice hell!

"What the hell is going on with these bugs!?" Alliance Chairman Mathias bellowed while lighting cackled all over his giant body. He hatefully glared at the live feed of millions of locusts heading towards the alchemy region, and they would soon reach the first city of the alchemy guild.

However, he was truly frustrated by the order he received from the Treaty of Legends. It was a very simple order: [We can't interfere with the conflict plains directly, but it is of the utmost importance that you deal with this locust army as soon as possible. Otherwise, you and your organizations will be in a world of trouble if you let the conflict plains population plummet to a certain degree!]

Furthermore, it wasn't just Mathias who received such a warning from the treaty, but all the leaders of the three factions received the same warnings, even the Dead Faction!

So, now Mathias and the other leaders of the three factions were having an urgent meeting virtually.

"I got information from my men that these Locusts seemed to be part of the elusive Fantastic Insect Race. As for their exact species and abilities, we have no information on them," Guild President Bronte gravely stated from a projection.

"I get it, but why did these insects suddenly decide to attack the conflict plains? Who provoked them? There must be some kind of motive behind their sudden attacks. And look at this!" Federation Master Ryan solemnly interjected before he displayed an image of a massive silhouette hidden within the fog on his screen for everyone to see.

Once everyone's attention was on the image, Ryan gravely said, "This is an image captured by one of my suicide squads before they turned into ice dust. But I think it was worth it because according to the information we were able to gather, despite the huge army of locusts spreading all over the conflict plains, there are still a massive, unknown number of locusts far more powerful than the one infiltrating the conflict plains circling around this mysterious object in the center.

"Whoever dared to approach this place will be instantly dealt with. Not even a fly could bypass this protection circle. But this also means that whatever is inside this object is very important for the locust army, and I think this might be the key to stopping and defeating this army!"

"Heh, as impressive as ever when it comes to gathering information, Federation Master." Dark Duke Tomas praised before he questioned coldly, "But I still want to ask how are you planning to approach this object if it is protected by an army even more powerful than unique rank locusts?

"If what you just said is true, then I'm afraid even if we gather everyone under us, we won't have enough manpower to go against this army. We'll be exhausted to death before we can even reach their main nest.

"Besides, why is the Treaty not taking action? Could it be there is something in there that even they didn't dare to face, and they are using us as bait to test the waters?

"I get that they are extremely powerful, even our seniors, but this didn't give them the right to order us around and use us as bug baits! Besides, does anyone here know what kind of consequences we would have to suffer if the population of those useless masses dropped a certain level? It's my first time hearing something like this!"

Everyone looked at Tomas with astonishment and impressed by his boldness; after all, they all had thought about the same thing but didn't dare to voice it out. Because it was simply too suspicious of the Treaty of the Legends not to act personally despite this matter being so grave. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

"Hah, if you have guts, say the same thing in front of the Treaty." At this moment, the Aura Dead King jeered at Tomas with his eerie voice as the flames behind his hood glowed brightly, "You livestock only have benefits in your head all the time, not loyalty towards your leaders. I knew from the start that this meeting was a waste of time. But since I'm already here, I'll tell you what I'll do. I'm going to follow my Emperor's order and take my entire army to kill those bugs! You can scheme against each other all you want. Let me see if your schemes are more solid or the Treaty's power!"

Without waiting for the others' reply, the Aura Dead King, who was the new dead emperor, cut off his connection, leaving behind deadly silence.

At this moment, Sebastian finally spoke in his impassive yet somewhat gloomy tone, "I'm with the Dead Emperor this time, and I have other matters to tend to. As the oldest among you, I'll advise you all not to test those old monsters. Trust me, you'll only end up in misery whether you win or lose!" He also cut off his connection.

"I'm also following Senior Queen's order!" Bronte quickly picked a side as well.

In the end, only Ryan, Mathias, Bank Manager Roy, and Tomas were left.

Tomas's expression was extremely dark, completely opposite to his previous confidence. He never expected that no one would take his side despite the situation being so obvious.

"Give up, old man; you can't take that person down. At least not until you're in the Unique Plains!" Mathias meaningfully glanced at Tomas, his anger greatly subdued after the Dead Emperor had given him a wake-up call.

Although he was also indignant about this whole situation, he was a believer in might above all, so he knew without strength, no matter what kind of opinion he had, his voice wasn't strong enough to have any weight. So, it was best to plan an attack and cut his losses to the

minimum.

"Tsk..." Bank Manager Roy clicked his tongue, clearly disappointed about this meeting, and cut off his connection as well.

However, Ryan didn't cut off his connection, and his somewhat dark expression suddenly turned stoic as he looked toward Tomas.

"What are you waiting for? Do you have anything to say?" Tomas asked coldly as he seemed to have aged a great deal after hearing Mathias's ambiguous words.

Ryan impassively said at his moment with a different tone as if completely a different person,

"Dark Duke Tomas, I know what you want, and I can even grant you the means to achieve your lofty goal. However, the thing is, what can you offer in return? After all, killing a God's avatar has certain consequences!"
