Hero of Darkness Chapter 627: The Spider's Web

Chapter 627: The Spider's Web

A few hours later, inside the Imperial Palace where the imperial trial was once held, a figure of a hooded fireborne in red robes suddenly appeared.

"What is it, advisor Aikbach?" asked Havi Hos Sigfreed, the Emperor of the Vulcan empire.

"Your majesty! We're in a great emergency!" shouted this fireborne and took off his hood.

"The Hero's Party has kidnapped prince Hector and princess Venessa!" shouted this fireborne as he revealed his s.h.i.+ning-like-sun bald head to the emperor.

This was the very fireborne who left Kahn, Venessa and Hector with the Hero's Party few hours ago.

This old fireborne was one of the 4 advisors of the emperor. One who also partook in the imperial trial and actually backed Venessa during the trial when she revealed Rogis' deeds in front of the whole empire.

"What?!" shouted Havi, his eyes revealing his bewilderment.

Without wasting another moment, the advisor named Aikbach took out an artifact and a holographic video of the Hero's Party surrounding Hector, Venessa and Kahn in the sky while revealing their hostile intentions appeared in front of the emperor.

"I just received a secret transmission from our spies. The Hero's Party somehow managed to kidnap both of them.

Your majesty… they've gone rogue!

I think they want to kill them." he bellowed with a gloomy expression.

BOOM!!

Havi did not hold back and quickly revealed his intense saint pressure of an 8th stage saint.

For the first time since he became the emperor, someone openly tried to harm his children.

"Why?!" he asked hurriedly.

"Your majesty, I don't know. But we don't have much time to a.s.semble our forces. We must leave quickly or it will be too late!" said Aikbach.

"Where?" asked Havi without a second thought since both of his children's lives were at risk.

"The Northern Plains." replied Aikbach.

"But if we leave through a wars.h.i.+p, it will take us hours." spoke the old advisor.

"We don't need that. Let's go!" spoke Havi and soon, a ma.s.sive bird-like ent.i.ty made of blistering flames that were expelled out from his body ama.s.sed in between them.

This entire broke through the ceiling of the imperial palace, quickly alerting the royal guards. But Havi had no time to spare and inform them of the situation.

He was the strongest person in the entire empire, he was fully capable of protecting himself.

BOOM!!

BOOM!!

Multiple shockwaves were released as Havi and Aikbach boarded this bird-like creature that broke the sound barrier because of its tremendous velocity.

In just 10 seconds, they were already out of the imperial clan's lands.

"Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! I'll kill everyone if anything happens to my children." spoke Havi to himself.

Within an hour, Havi and the advisor appeared in the middle of the northern plans as this bird ent.i.ty traveled at a supersonic speed while completely protecting the pa.s.sengers with its aura.

[Terrifying! He didn't even use his bloodline and just this creature created from his body's flames is enough to burn down the capital itself.] thought Aikbach as he shuddered in fear.

So far, no one had seen Havi's peak strength after he became an 8th stage saint just a few years ago.

"What's this? Didn't you say they're at the central region of the northern plains?" asked Havi as he looked around the open lands of this region.

This area called the northern plains had no fertile soil and environment suitable for living for normal people within one thousand kilometers of the area because of a battle between a G.o.dbeast and the Emperor of the old generation 600 years ago; leaving this place with nothing but barren lands that could not grow a single plant life after the fight.

"I don't sense anyone except the two of us in 800 kilometers." said Havi after activating his peak senses.

Because of their fast traveling ride, he could not do so before but now that he did, Havi couldn't sense Hector or Venessa at all.

"Because they're not here at all."

s.h.i.+ng!

BOOM!!

Before Havi could react to this sudden arrival of another individual, over a thousand different pillars of white light erupted at set distances within all of the span of the northern plains.

Each of these pillars was a couple of kilometers in width and their height rose to more than 15 kilometers (around 50 thousand feet) high in the sky.

And finally, at that height, all these ginormous pillars started connecting their lights in different directions, their speed so great that it only took 10 seconds before all of the ends of the bright pillars extended and connected to each other like spider-webs in the sky. Thick layers of impenetrable barriers formed on top of this magical formation, forming a thousand kilometers perimeter barrier that isolated everything from the outside.

"Arggghhhh!!!" bellowed Havi as his body was greatly suppressed and his mouth started throwing up blood in succession.

"The ancient Flame Killer formation… isn't it majestic?" asked the new arrival with a smug expression on his face that floated in the sky like standing on the solid ground 5 kilometers away from Havi. In his hand was a Legendary rank artifact with the insignia of the Church of Hetrax.

Aikbach had already appeared behind this figure who had a calm and collected expression.

"You… what's the meaning of this? Are you trying to commit treason…

Demiurge!" said Havi as he looked at the Pope who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, evading even the senses of an 8th stage saint like him using a mysterious artifact.

"It took us 50 years to set this ancient formation here without anyone noticing. But since the northern plains was nothing but full of barren lands… the security here was non-existent.

And to set up this Flame Killer formation, the only suppression barrier that can prohibit the imperial fireborne blood from activating their primordial bloodline at full capacity… We made a lot of sacrifices.

Finally, I'm relieved to see it being used." said Demiurges, revealing unnecessary information instead of directly responding to the emperor's question.

"And now…" he looked at Havi whose chest and stomach convulsed because of the effects of the suppression barrier while he kept throwing up blood again and again.

Demiurges then declared with an elated smile…

"You will be its first victim."
