After hearing what Sam said, one of the old-looking military officers said calmly, "What is the man's background and why did he attack a base of the Newgate Alliance? Any lead on that?"
Sam nodded. He clicked a button on the remote in his hand, and a video started playing on the projector.
In the video, a boy wearing a loose hospital gown could be seen fighting with more than one hundred beasts and robots all by himself. Although the boy's face and body were not clear due to the wounds on his body and the blood flowing from his cracked skin, just by looking at the way he was fighting, one could say that this man was a terrifying martial cultivator with some decent-level skills.
"This technique... it appears quite familiar..." one of the soldiers said with some uncertainty after seeing the fight.
"The moves are extremely calculated and fearless. His eyes in particular are ruby red in color. There is no doubt about it. The technique he is using is the Asura Scripture, and this man is an awakened Nyxborn," the lady who spoke earlier said with a sharp glint in her eyes.
The entire room fell into a strange silence after hearing this. Another middle-aged military officer knitted his brows as he glared at the young lady coldly, "This is not Prince Alin. Currently, he is with the Everheart royal family attending his nephew's awakening ceremony."
The lady officer looked at the man indifferently, "When did I say it is your Prince Alin Nyxborn? Furthermore, I do not think a chocolate boy like him would ever be able to handle this many enemies at once."
Seeing the two officers were about to start a fight, the old officer said sternly, "This is a meeting of the army officers of the Celestian Alliance, not of the representatives of the Nine Kingdoms."
Sam, who had remained silent until then, suddenly spoke up when he saw the situation getting out of hand, "I do not know if this has any relevance, but according to the villagers, they believe it is their guardian god named Crimson Phantom who appeared in the man's body to rescue them..."
All the officers present in the meeting room looked at Sam as though he was a fool.
"Seriously, you still believe in such folk tales..." the lady officer asked with a light chuckle.
Sam scratched his head awkwardly, as even he himself felt what he was saying was pure rubbish.
..........
Back in the depths of the Heavenly Wood Forest,
A boy wearing only beach shorts could be seen fleeing at full speed with a huge axe dragging behind him, "Damn it, I only took some fruits. Why are you making such a big fuss about it?"
Behind Alvin, a group of T-Rex-like magic beasts called the Earth Dragon Lizards chased after him like mad dogs.
Alvin had killed over sixty wolves ranging from Ascension Realm to the Master Realm as he walked deep into the forest. It was then that he noticed a large clearing with several trees bearing golden fruits.
Alvin instantly recognized these fruits as a rare type of medicinal fruit which could heal injuries instantly, so he picked them up without hesitation.
What he did not expect was the presence of two baby Earth Dragon Lizards at the bottom of one of the trees. Since they were just Mortal Realm beasts with no cultivation, Alvin just scared them away and continued plucking the fruits.
But after about fifteen minutes, Alvin saw a group of over a hundred Earth Dragon Lizards running towards him in a frenzy. It did not take Alvin much time to realize that these lizards were the elders of the two baby lizards.
He jumped down from the tree and held the big axe in his hand with a smirk on his face. As the leading dragon lizard reached him, Alvin swung the axe in a chopping manner intending to cut the beast in two.
"Boom..."
But what he did not expect was that the leading four-meter-tall lizard would just swing its tail and send him flying like a broken kite.
After breaking out of his stupor, Alvin did not hesitate. He started running in the opposite direction at full speed. He would have been able to handle one or two of these beasts, but after exchanging a single blow with it, Alvin was sure he would be asking for death if he intended to fight with this group.
"Holy hell, these idiots will catch up with me at this rate," Alvin muttered to himself as he ran forward. He thought of throwing away the heavy axe in his hand, but he ultimately gave up on the idea, as he would be like a tiger without teeth if he threw it away.
"Roar..."
Just as Alvin was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard growling voices behind him. Turning his head backward, he saw a beautiful girl around his age running towards him from another side of the forest. There was also a large group of dragon lizards behind her.
"Hey, go some other way. Do not run this way. I am already in trouble," Alvin shouted at the young lady frantically.
But the young lady ignored him and kept advancing in his direction. Now the two groups of lizards gathered into one large group and followed both of them like waves of a tsunami.
In less than fifteen minutes, both Alvin and the young lady were running side by side. Alvin kept panting in exhaustion from all the running, but the young lady did not even sweat.
"Help me get out of this forest. I am willing to give you one Earth Dragon Lizard egg as a reward," the young lady suddenly opened her mouth and said to Alvin while running.
Alvin's heart nearly stopped when he heard this, "You are telling me you stole their egg? Hurry up and leave the egg behind or else none of us will be able to get out of this forest alive."
But the young lady did not respond to Alvin. She just kept running parallel to him. Whenever he tried to change direction, she would shamelessly follow him like a fly.
"By the way, why are you carrying a big axe? I thought you only knew how to fight with magic," the young lady continued asking questions as though they were long-known friends.
Alvin's mouth twitched, "Excuse me, young lady. Do not act like we are friends. Just leave me alone. I do not want to die here."
The young lady chuckled, "Well, Prince Alin did not even recognize his fiancée anymore. As expected of the prince charming, I have heard from my brother that you already have three girlfriends. Where would you get time to even remember me? Anyway, I am not going to marry you, so it is not a problem affecting me."
Alvin did not respond to this taunt. Although he did not know who this Prince Alin was, he knew one thing for sure. This lady was definitely here to commit suicide...
