Chapter 1362: React
Abel put away Knight Keynes’ body and left with Thief God Milton.
The only thing left over was the sight of a fallen god, a huge sun light orb in the sky shining even brighter than the guardian wings.
The first ones who sensed it was the half god knights, and they immediately speeded out of the temple.
The sight was very far, but they could still see it clearly from the sky.
By that point, 5 god rank knights in the temple have been summoned.
Their souls were stunned since they were forced out of retreat.
However, they were not angry since they also sensed the energy of a fallen god.
Without any hesitation, they speeded out of the temple as well.
“My saint, has the battle of gods begin?” God rank knight Balmain lowered his voice.
His heart was tensing up. What else could cause a god rank knight to die in the Holy kingdom?
“No, Knight Keynes was assassinated!” The saint replied in disbelief.
A powerful knight was killed by a Thief god just like that.
Wasn’t Thief god Milton supposed to be weak?
He thought about Knight Momo again that that investigation department he was always proud of.
If he could, he would kill Knight Momo again and again.
“My saint, there is no way a god rank knight will be assassinated!” Knight Balmain said in a certain tone.
He was not the only one. The other 4 god rank knights were also certain.
With their powerful senses and intuition, any assassins would be spotted long before they could do anything.
Even wizards would not be able to do so with their speed.
The saint hesitated. This might not happen if he did not send knight Keynes to sleep with the demon from beyond’s energy.
Therefore it was only rational to not say anything. After all those god rank knights were still irritated that they’d been forcefully summoned, they would not hesitate to kill him if they knew he made a mistake.
“Who killed knight Keynes?” Knight Dexter lowered his voice and asked.
He was quite close with Knight Keynes, so he wanted to know.
“Thief God Milton!” The saint replied.
The 5 god rank knight paused. They knew very well the thief god Milton was a rat—a rat with no guts.
Making such assumptions alone was an insult to the god rank knights.
Knight Dexter gazed at the saint with a serious face, and the saint knew he was not playing around.
“Oh, where’s Lancelot?” Knight Balmain suddenly realized that another god rank knight was missing.
“Knights Balmain, Knight Lancelot have fallen on a mission!” The saint lowered his voice.
The 5 god rank knight paused again. It might be an accident if one god rank knight was killed, but 2 god rank knights were killed? No way.
There was an enemy of the Holy Kingdom capable of killing god ranks.
The god rank knights were no longer planning to chase after Thief God Milton, it had been a while, and they knew they had no chance of catching him.
They needed some time to recover since they were forced out anyway.
Especially since their enemy had the power to kill god rank knights.
They only got more afraid of dying the longer they lived, so it was best to play it safe after 2 god rank knights had fallen.
Meanwhile, Wizard Coleridge and Wizard Hawthorn gazed towards that glowing orb shining brighter than the Guardian wings from the defense wall of Doomsday. The legendary wizards beside them also saw it.
“Larkin, call the headquarters and ask if there are any god rank wizards or dragons near the Holy Kingdom!” Wizard Hawthorn turned and asked.
Wizard Larkin immediately flashed into the defense wall and connected to the wizard union headquarters.
“Too many gods have fallen lately!” Wizard Coleridge sighed but still in awe.
Ever since the wizard union took over, god rank professionals have become the most powerful figures, and none of them have ever fallen besides huge battles.
However, this time the war with the holy kingdom had not even started.
The god of fire, Wizard Bradford, Knight Lancelot, and now this yet to be discovered god rank.
“Every god rank who died so far was to do with the dragon headmaster Abel. Could this be his doing too?” Wizard Hawthorn gasped.
It was a pity. Abel was supposed to be with the Wizard Union. But the dragons had taken him in.
Wizard Smith received the call from the defense wall, and he confirmed that the god rank who died was definitely not from the wizard union.
Ever since he and Wizard McPhee failed to kill Knight Keynes, they stayed in the Wizard Union headquarter.
Wizard Mosley was also right by his side, which meant all 5 god rank wizards who were summoned were around.
“Maybe Thief God Milton was killed?” An idea suddenly struck him.
He heard Abel mention that Thief God Milton was killing in the Holy Kingdom, so it must be it.
All of a sudden, he didn’t know if he should be sad or not.
On the one hand, Thief God Milton was a huge threat to the Wizard Union as a god rank assassin, but at the same time, he was causing trouble in the Holy kingdom like nothing else.
Therefore, the death of Thief God Milton was a huge benefit and a huge loss to the world.
“It must be Thief God Milton!” Wizard McPhee agreed.
“Let’s call the dragon and confirm it!” Wizard Smith lowered his voice.
As the Vice President of the wizard union, he directly ignited the communication circle beside him.
It was a special communication circle that directly connected the biggest forces together, and there was no waiting time.
Luckily Headmaster Eugene was right around, and he answered the call.
“Smith, what’s happening?” headmaster Eugene asked.
“Headmaster Eugene. A god rank has fallen in the Holy kingdom, check if the dragons have lost a god rank!” Wizard Smith asked in a passive way.
“What? When?” Headmaster Eugene lowered his voice.
“Just now. It is night time so the defence wall of doomsday can see it very clearly.” Wizard Smith replied.
“Ok, thanks for the notice!” Headmaster Eugene nodded and disconnected the call.
“Ah!” Wizard Smith sighed.
Afterward, headmaster Eugene immediately ignited the communication circle again towards the golden castle.
“The prestigious headmaster Eugene, master is not in the golden castle. If needed, I can help you transfer a message!” The research spirit sounded.
Headmaster Eugene was not in the mood to talk to a spirit, so he disconnected the call.
He then directly flew out of the dragon island’s world and directly entered a teleportation circle to the golden castle.
However, he noticed the golden castle was not accepting his request.
Headmaster Eugene’s face sank, and a chilling idea struck him.
Was Abel in the Holy kingdom, and something bad happened to him?
All of Abel’s god rank summons were extremely important to the dragons.
Meanwhile, Abel had no idea what was going on. He just knew 5 more god rank knights had appeared in the Holy kingdom, so he doubled down on his speed.
By that point, even half gods could not match up to his speed.
At first, he was still contemplating if he should let Thief god Milton stay in the Holy kingdom, but he no longer did.
With 5 god rank knights around, there were countless traps they could set up for Thief God Milton.
Especially since he killed 2 god rank knights already.
But little did he know, the Holy kingdom was actually growing afraid of him after what he did.
Knight Lancelot’s death made sense since he was in Abel’s territory, but knight Keynes was killed in the Holy Kingdom. Those other 5 god rank knights had to be more precise.
Soon, Abel arrived at the shore and left the guardian wings’ energy shield. With a few more flashes, he arrived at the closest dragon teleportation circle and teleported back to the golden castle. Finally, Abel let out a breath of relief.
Although his life poison made the assassination of Knight Keynes successful, it was still very risky.
Abel already gave Thief God Milton hundreds of full recovery potions, 10 move in a flash scrolls, and 100 holy crystals, which was enough for him to save himself if he was not killed at an instant.
However, he just never expected there were still 5 god rank knights in the Central Temple.
If he had known about this earlier, he would not assassinate Knight Keynes even if he had a few more guts.
He just got lucky this time that Knight Keynes fell asleep.
If Knight Keynes alerted those 5 other god rank knights before he was killed, Thief God Milton would be the one who ended up dead.
Of course, Abel also did not know those 5 god rank knights were only summoned because Knight Keynes had died.
And each of those 5 god rank knights had basically lost tens of years of training from their abrupt summoning, so it was actually another thing Abel has accomplished without knowing.
But no matter what, Abel still got another god rank dead body. If the resurrection was successful, he would have another god rank on his side..
