The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 411 - 371: How Is That Possible? (Part 2)

Interrupted by the opponent, Metheus's face didn't look good, but he knew that if things continued this way, it would certainly arouse the dissatisfaction of all these forces.

Therefore, he didn't continue to keep them in suspense and directly informed the leaders of the inner circle major forces, who hadn't joined the alliance army, about the news he had learned.

After hearing the news Metheus had shared, the leaders of these inner circle major forces all changed their expressions slightly.

Subsequently, one leader of the inner circle major forces couldn't help but ask: "Metheus, where did you get this news? Is it reliable? Are you joking with us?"

Hearing the questioning, Metheus frowned slightly with discontent, and then slowly said: "My intelligence department is top-notch, absolutely unmatched by yours. The reliability of this news, I can assure you, is absolutely authentic and reliable, and I can vouch for it with my own reputation."

With these words from Metheus, the scene fell into silence.

Though Metheus had quite a nasty personality, he was a legendary tier figure, and when such an existence vouches for the authenticity with their own reputation, it's evidently very, very reliable.

However, if this news is true, it would be quite terrifying.

The leaders present at the inner circle major forces were all old foxes and understood clearly that if the alliance army really encountered a big mishap, the next thing would surely be their downfall along with the alliance army, without any exceptions.

For with Guluns leading the alliance army, they could utterly crush these inner circle major forces that hadn't joined.

Many thoughts quickly flashed through the minds of these leaders of the inner circle major forces.

Then one leader couldn't help but suggest: "If this news is true, we cannot sit idly by; we must take the initiative. I propose that all the inner circle major forces present must work together to investigate the condition of the alliance army and continuously share intelligence without any concealment or misreporting."

"If the alliance army falls into a disadvantage, we have a great necessity to directly join the alliance army and help them combat the Undead Forces; in any case, the alliance army must achieve victory in this war."

No one present thought that the alliance army would be destroyed by the Undead Forces. To them, the worst-case scenario would be the alliance army suffering severe losses and falling behind.

After all, it was an alliance led by Guluns and composed of legendary tier existences of more than half of the inner circle major forces.

Such a powerful force would invoke immense fear even outside the Chaotic Sea Domain.

Thus, subconsciously, they all only believed what they wanted to believe.

And they even gave themselves a convincing reason to believe this: if the Undead Forces destroyed the alliance army, they would be able to take action on the remaining inner circle major forces and eliminate all legendary tier existences among them.

However, now that the opponents hadn't done this, it seemed that the alliance army must be still intact, just at a disadvantage.

They didn't know this was because Fang Ka had a cautious personality and always acted meticulously, hence not having done so, primarily due to intelligence errors.

Once this leader of the inner circle major forces proposed this idea, it quickly gained the approval of the other leaders present.

After agreeing, they soon began to take action.

In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed.

It must be said, with so many inner circle major forces jointly launching an investigation, there's indeed very little they couldn't uncover.

Especially as the players themselves just acted according to Fang Ka's orders and didn't intentionally hide their tracks.

This noon, the inner circle major forces that hadn't joined the alliance army once again connected their Communication Magic Array and held another meeting, although this meeting felt much tenser than before.

According to their investigation, multiple territories belonging to inner circle major forces within the alliance army had already been conquered, and there was a 90% chance that legendary tier existences were involved in these conquests.

The reason it wasn't 100% certain is that they hadn't directly engaged with the Undead Forces occupying those territories.

But even a 50% probability would be enough to shake all their judgments, let alone 90%.

Additionally, the battles involving legendary tier existences had such significant destructive power that the terrain and geography were altered, making it difficult to restore in a short time.

Moreover, the players hadn't conducted any particular repairs post-battle, making restoration nearly impossible.

Thus, even the other legendary tier existences managed to locate the battlefield where the warriors and players had fought.

Through this, they drew a very terrifying conclusion that the alliance army and the Undead Forces had been engaged in combat for a long time.

Otherwise, such a vast area couldn't have been so tremendously devastated.

This indicated the Undead Forces had strength sufficient to contend with the alliance army.

Although it was exceedingly hard for them to believe, the facts left them no choice but to accept it.

Aside from the traces of battle in this war zone, they didn't find any other signs of the alliance army, leading them to an even more outrageous and terrifying conclusion. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The alliance army might have completely perished in this unbelievably terrifying battle.

They also carefully searched that maritime battlefield but found no bodies; however, considering the undead forces frequently dealt with corpses, it's highly likely those bodies were relocated.

And because of this conclusion, they became more convinced of the possible obliteration of the alliance army.

What they didn't know was that their speculation was very accurate. The remainings of the legendary tier existences that fought with the players, except those entirely annihilated, were almost all taken back as a reserve for the players.

The silence at the scene persisted oppressively for a long time until finally one leader of an inner circle force that hadn't joined the alliance couldn't help but say: "What now, everyone? The opponent is really patient. After destroying the alliance army, they didn't purge us remaining inner circle forces but slowly devoured the alliance army's territories step by step, almost leading us to a huge misjudgment."

Hearing the words from this leader, the atmosphere at the scene grew even more silent and oppressive.

Finally, it was Metheus who broke the silence, with an immensely heavy expression on his face, saying frankly that when he first relayed the message, he thought the alliance army had merely fallen behind.

But who could have imagined that according to the clues now available, the alliance army might have been indeed wiped out?

This is something they couldn't accept no matter what.

"I think we must notify the Ten Mother Islands."

Hearing Metheus's words, the leaders present from the inner circle major forces all had strangely altered expressions.

After quite a while, a leader slowly said: "Metheus, are you serious?"

Hearing this questioning, Metheus slowly replied: "Do you have a better idea? Do you plan to keep this information to just the Bright Church Country?"

"Doing so would be suicide; we wouldn't stand a chance at survival. Our inner circle major forces within the Chaotic Sea Domain have suffered significant losses; introducing the Bright Church Country and its ilk would indeed be inviting wolves into our home. Stirring the waters thoroughly is currently the best solution."

"This is the only way we can seek survival in the cracks. Moreover, you know the stance of Ten Mother Islands... that is our leverage."
