Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Chapter 463: A Tense Confrontation

Ramirez stood in the middle of the palace. He looked at the crack in the air and fell silent.

Vincent and Justin were also quietly watching Ramirez in the space tunnel. They were afraid that he would attack again and break through the space barrier to chase after them. They were so nervous that they did not dare to move at all.

In the end, Vincent took the initiative to try moving. He moved his body carefully and found that Ramirez’s gaze did not change at all. Only then did he confirm that the other party was unable to see the interior of the space tunnel.

“Whew…”

Vincent and Justin let out a long breath at the same time as if they were relieved of a heavy burden.

The two of them then looked at each other awkwardly. Although there was a great difference in strength between the two of them, in their hearts, they both thought that they were insufferably powerful experts.

As the leader of a high-level race, Justin’s strength and talent were naturally outstanding. He even looked down on all cultivators below level 75. Sometimes, he even looked down on cultivators below level 80.

Vincent was even more arrogant. Not only did he kill Justin with all his might, but he also wanted to become enemies with the demons.

However, when Ramirez, who was a level 76 creature, suddenly attacked, the two arrogant experts actually showed a nervous and worried expression. This made them feel as if they had lost their status and reputation!

Justin had no interest in moving freely at this time. He whispered to Vincent, “He should have sensed that someone was spying on him just now through his own senses, so he tried to launch an attack. In the end, he discovered the existence of the space barrier. As long as you leave the space tunnel, the broken space barrier will automatically recover. At that time, it will prove that no one is watching him. As for when you want to leave, you can make your own decision. I’ll go back in first!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Justin took two steps toward Vincent and directly entered his body.

Vincent was first stunned when he heard that. He then sighed, “As expected of the Vampire Race’s leader, he actually knows so much about the Lingluo Race’s space tunnel! Looks like I really can’t stay here any longer, I’ll go back too!”

After saying that, Vincent turned around and used his left hand to pull the Cosmic Threads away from the space where Ramirez was.

Although Vincent had left, he was still able to spy on the palace as there were still six demons under his control.

As Vincent left gradually, the space crack in the center of the palace slowly disappeared. This made Ramirez let go of the fear in his heart. His attack earlier had almost exhausted all of his strength. If that person who was watching in the dark chose to attack, he would not be able to guarantee his own safety. Thus, he could only act as if nothing had happened and stand in front of the space barrier whilst maintaining his powerful posture in an attempt to intimidate the other party.

Moreover, the facts proved that Ramirez had made the right bet. The disappearance of the space barrier meant that the person who was watching in the dark had left. He did not dare to stay in the nearby parallel space.

At that moment, the six demons suddenly stood up and asked with concern, “Lord Ramirez, what happened just now?”

Ramirez turned around and looked at his six subordinates who had just expressed their loyalty to him. He replied in a good mood, “Someone is spying on us using the space ability, and I’ve noticed it. But he has been intimidated by me. It seems that the other party doesn’t dare to make an enemy out of me and can only do some sneaky things in the dark. But you must be careful in the future, especially when using the Cosmic Threads. You must be extra careful, and don’t let him take it or steal it. Once the three great treasures of the Demon Race fall into the hands of other races, it will definitely cause a great disturbance!”

A subtle smile flashed across the faces of the six demons at the same time. They said in unison, “Please rest assured, Lord Ramirez. If anyone wants to steal the Cosmic Threads, they will have to kill us!”

Ramirez nodded in satisfaction and sighed softly. “It’s a pity that Gajero has placed restrictions on my body, preventing me from using any of the demons’ treasures. Otherwise, I would have personally taken control of the Cosmic Threads. However, since I can break the shackles on my mind through closed-door cultivation, I’ll definitely be able to get rid of all the restrictions that Gajero has left on me. From now on, the six of you will continue to be responsible for guarding the Imperial City. I’ll begin my closed-door cultivation once again!”

“Yes!”

The six demons replied in unison. Ramirez could not help but feel a little surprised when he saw that the actions of the six subordinates in front of him were extremely consistent. However, his strength had been exhausted and he needed to replenish it urgently. He did not have time to think too much about it. He just turned around and walked back into the secret chamber.

After closing the door of the secret chamber, the eyes of the six demons revealed a sense of relief. However, this was not their current mood, but the mood of Vincent who was secretly controlling them from behind!

Vincent had returned to his room. He was controlling the Cosmic Threads from his bed. He gave the six demons a new will, allowing them to return to their seats to enjoy life.

Vincent then began to pace back and forth in his room. He was contemplating on whether he should cut off his control over the Dark Elves in Imperial City.

At that moment, Vincent did not care about whether his identity would be exposed because half a day had already passed. There was only half a day left until he meets with the six great Elf Kings. He could then break all ties with Ramirez and directly reveal his identity.

The only thing that Vincent was worried about was the safety of the Dark Elves in the city. If he cut off all the Dark Elves’ connections and Ramirez found out about it, the entire city’s Dark Elves would probably be killed.

The safest way to deal with this was to first determine if Ramirez was really in seclusion and ensure that he could not harm the other Dark Elves. Only then would he cut off the control of the Cosmic Threads.

However, this did not mean that Vincent could not do anything at that moment!

After dealing with the six demons, Vincent shifted his attention to the other Dark Elves in the city. He found that the Cosmic Threads not only allowed him to see everyone’s vision and thoughts, but he could also share his own thoughts and memories with everyone connected to the Cosmic Threads.

Therefore, Vincent tried it out. He shared the scenes in his mind regarding the numerous evil deeds committed by the demons, as well as the scene where the Origin Divine Earth in Bright Moon City had dried up. He shared it with all the Dark Elves in the city.

In an instant, all the guards in the streets and alleys of Imperial City, as well as the Dark Elves who hid in their rooms, shed tears almost at the same time. They reacted the same way as Dave and Horace who were in the underground river of Bright Moon City previously.

They could feel Elf World weakening. They could also feel their race slowly being destroyed. This sadness was so painful that it struck their souls. Even though they were being controlled by someone and could not express their thoughts and emotions, their reactions from their souls and bloodlines could not be stopped!

Vincent was able to feel the sadness from all the Dark Elves in the city. He believed that the moment he cut off the connection between the Cosmic Threads and the Dark Elves, all the Dark Elves in the Imperial City would abandon their faith in Gajero and the demons.

This was because what they were receiving at that moment was the guidance from God, and it would forever be planted in the depths of their consciousness!

Vincent rubbed his brows and kept the Cosmic Threads into his storage ring. He turned around and sat on his bed. He closed his eyes and entered a meditative state. He began to rest up for his appointment with the Elf Kings that was due in ten hours.

…

Night gradually fell. On the top of the city wall of Devil Flame City, Dave and Catherine were looking down at the city wall with solemn expressions.

They had just gone through a fierce battle. Countless corpses of elves and Dark Elves could be seen on the battlefield. However, the two sides were currently in a stalemate, so no one dared to come forward to collect the corpses of their companions.

This was because every time someone stepped onto the battlefield, a new war would begin!

Catherine frowned and said with a worried face, “More than a dozen battles have taken place in just a day. The elves who came to support us have already lost half their men! If not for Ebenezer using his ability to assist by the side, the number of casualties would have doubled! If we can’t think of a way to turn the battle around, I’m afraid we won’t be able to hold on until Vincent returns!”

Dave clenched his fist and slammed it heavily on the city wall. He said in a deep voice, “Damn it! The enemy has four apostles that can turn into demons at any time. We have hundreds of thousands of troops in Devil Flame City, yet we can only hide in the city! We don’t dare to fight! If we can make everyone change their beliefs overnight, we will definitely be able to wipe out all the enemies here!”

Catherine shook her head gently and said helplessly, “It will be extremely difficult to get everyone to change their faith at the same time! Even though everyone had clearly recognized Gajero’s sins, there are still not many elves who are willing to pray to the former Elf Kings unless a new god that everyone believed in is born. However, isn’t this an even more difficult thing to do?”

“It’s not difficult at all!”

At that moment, a firm voice sounded from behind Dave and Catherine. They turned their heads to look behind them.

Monica was currently wearing a High Priest’s robe and holding a short magic staff that was only one meter long. She walked in front of Catherine and Dave with a firm expression.

“Sir Dave, Lady Catherine, I believe that Vincent will definitely be able to save Devil Flame City at the critical moment. The majority of the residents in the city have already become devout believers of Vincent. As long as he can find the secret of becoming a god, I believe that the entire Devil Flame City will change their faith in an instant!”

Catherine pursed her lips when she heard this. She was one of the few elves who did not become a follower of Vincent. Until now, she did not think that Vincent would be able to turn the situation around.

Meanwhile, Dave nodded and said, “Monica, it seems that letting you become the High Priest is my wisest choice! I also believe that Vincent will definitely become a god. Even if our Devil Flame City cannot wait until that day, he will definitely carry our faith and help the elves get rid of Gajero!”

Monica smiled and nodded slightly. She said firmly and resolutely, “He will definitely do it!”
