BXBX NOVEL Chapter 627 Monster’s Arrival!
Ace didn\'t start ascending the mountain and looked at the gloomy sky coldly, \'It should be any minute now…\'
A few moments later, the sky turns bright before the light pillar descends upon him, making him visible again like a human touch.
Those hidden elf scouts were startled when they saw the \'monster\' appear at the foot of the mountain, and without wasting time, they quickly reported it to the higher-ups.
On top of the city wall, right above the enormous city gates, Livia, in her dark golden attire, looking like an aloof fairy, was standing with the other alliance leaders as she looked at the misty cloud ring a few hundred meters below the mountain peak.
At this moment, the gloomy sky suddenly turned bright before a light pillar descended like a sword at the bottom of the mountain. Everyone was dumbfounded before their expressions turned solemn.
A hint of coldness flashed past Livia\'s beautiful eyes as she looked at the light pillar.
The wizened face elf, Princeton, the leader of Golden Wolves Alliance, suddenly flipped his hand. A communication cube appeared, and he activated it. A panicked voice with a hint of excitement rang thereafter, "Alliance Head, the Monster had been spotted on the foot of the mountain!"
Princeton solemnly stated, "I can see that. What\'s the situation? Is the monster moving?"
Everyone\'s ears perked as they were also paying attention to this conversation. They had already planned their next course of action under Livia\'s command.
"No, he\'s just standing there. It\'s the same thing he did previously." The scout stated.
"Alright, keep your eyes peeled for any unusual behavior and report it to me immediately!" Princeton sternly ordered before cutting off the communication.
"Your Highness, what\'s your order?" Princeton respectfully looked at Livia, who was still staring at the light pillar without any reaction.
Randall and Jerice\'s faces fell since Princeton didn\'t ask for their opinions and bypassed them like they were wind. But they remained calm and only shot a peculiar glance at the old elf.
Livia\'s pink lips curled up slightly before she questioned, "How much time do you think the monster would take before appearing at this place?"
Jerice pursed his lips as he answered, "Of course, with his estimated speed, it will take him at least over an hour before he can approach the city gates. So, we should stop wasting our time and active the formation and prepare for the next step!"
Livia couldn\'t help but chuckle as she looked at Jerice and retorted teasingly, "Little Jerice, your brain always works in one way. Don\'t worry. I won\'t let you die because of your low IQ as long as you stay by my side!"
Jerice was startled before his expression went black, and he ground his teeth in anger.
Randall quickly chimed in before Jerice blew his top and dryly asked, "Elder Sister, what is your point?"
At this moment, their attention suddenly shifted to the light pillar because it started to fade.
Livia glanced at the light pillar before her expression turned somewhat cold. She said, "It\'s simple. Didn\'t any of you notice that whenever the monster appeared, he covered almost the same distance every hour? I even have my men measure it."
"What does this have to do with anything?" Jerice darkly asked.
Livia didn\'t answer as she looked at Randall, who had this startle expression, and she smiled, "See, little Randall already guessed it. You\'re so slow!"
Jerice was now really clueless as he looked at his brother and questioned uncertainly, "What is it?"
Randall solemnly answered, "Elder Sister, are you implying that the monster is controlling his speed? He\'s far faster than he\'s showing, and he\'ll appear here before an hour?"
Everyone\'s expressions went grim when they heard this revelation and looked at Livia with a hint of awe since she noticed this overly small detail which wasn\'t small at all if they looked at it from another direction.
Livia nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, I\'m not just implying. I\'m hundred percent sure that it is a fact. He\'s used the same thing to catch others on the fifth floor off guard and then used this trick to slaughter them before they were prepared!"
Fabien the leader of Blue Moon, quickly bowed and asked, "No offense, Your Highness, but even if that monster\'s speed is two or even three times more than what he showed. We don\'t have to worry about him since we are not like those fools and are already prepared!"
"You simpleton, my sister here is trying to say that monster had even more power he wasn\'t showing, and our preparation might not be enough to trap him!" Randall berated sternly, making Fabien smile bashfully.
Livia spoke at this moment, "You two are both right and wrong. But it didn\'t matter anymore since this information was only useful for those who could kill the monster. Do you want to kill it?"
She suddenly smiled beautifully as she scanned the crowd behind, and they all felt chills on their spines when they fell under Livia\'s watchful eyes. They were feeling like they were being gazed at by a venomous snake that will strike if they dare to let their guard down.
Randall quickly smiled stiffly and said, "No way. As we discussed before, we\'ll do anything to assist you in slaying that monster, elder sister!"
Livia\'s smile widened as she nodded in satisfaction, "Then do your part. I\'m going!"
The next moment, Livia vanished under everyone\'s eyes, leaving them flabbergasted!
