Chapter 912: Chapter 74: Backstab!
A fireball over 30 meters in diameter fell from the sky before ‘their’ Leader had finished speaking, smashing into the bottom of the pit.
The enormous fireball burst open.
The shockwave, mixed with flames rising up to 3 meters high, surged in all directions.
Instantly, it plowed through the already shattered ground once more.
Turning the bottom of the pit into actual scorched earth.
The surviving ‘parents’ from the ‘Hundred Major Families’ at the edge of the pit leapt down.
Hera looked around with a solemn expression.
Her ‘insight’ was warning her.
But where was the danger?
If Hera 10 were here, she would definitely be able to find something.
Hera thought to herself.
She knew her tenth daughter’s Talent well, and therefore sent Hera 10 to attend the meeting of the younger generation, not just because Hera 10 was nearby but because she believed her daughter would make the right choices there.
Although the official reason announced was because Hera 10 was nearby.
But that was just for the public.
All direct members of the ‘Hera Family’ knew why.
Because, ‘insight’ does not deceive.
Hera 10 was the best choice.
Pondor asked in a low voice.
As the Leader of the ‘Pondor Family’, which ranked high among the ‘Hundred Major Families’, Pondor believed in being careful and cautious.
He thought that the reason why the ‘Pondor Family’ had achieved its current status was precisely because of being careful and cautious.
Thus, faced with Hera who possessed such a capability as ‘insight’, Pondor always showed respect and accorded her the appropriate honors from start to finish.
The goal was to get some hints at critical moments.
"But I can’t find where it is!”
Hera spoke honestly, voicing her own guess.
That wasn’t good news!
By now, everything should be clear.
Possessing a truly complete ‘Divine’s Body’!
Not the traditional meaning of ‘core’ completeness!
But complete both inside and out!
Therefore, the Leaders of the ‘Hundred Major Families’ had become so proactive.
Because everyone knew what it meant to possess such a truly complete ‘Divine’s Body’.
No one understood the meaning behind it better than these ‘Hundred Major Families’ that owned a ‘Divine’s Body’ and resonated with it.
Could it be that ‘their’ Leader had come for this truly complete ‘Divine’s Body’?
He must have come for it.
Could they still resist?
Pondor looked down at the bottom of the pit.
Dorco, also frowning, shared his concern.
As the most exalted family among the ‘Hundred Major Families’, Dorco believed that real strength could shatter any scheme.
He had always believed so!
But this time it concerned the ‘bystander’!
Thinking about the millennia-old creature’s past actions, Dorco, who believed in strength, did not think the opponent was ineffective now.
A main ship cannon shot?
Others might have already been dissipated.
And, very likely, only slightly wounded.
As for why the display was so miserable?
Most likely because… it lured them out?
Dorco thought to himself.
This made him hesitate.
If it were anyone else, Dorco would definitely rush down and shred the opponent at this moment.
Because he is strong.
But facing the ‘bystander’, Dorco didn’t consider himself strong.
However, not everyone was as hesitant as Dorco, Pondor, and Hera.
The Leader of the ‘Cook Family’ charged down first.
Flames surrounded the opponent.
The roaring flames obscured the opponent’s face and body.
Flames spewed four to five meters high.
Making the opponent appear like a giant made of fire.
And upon landing, the opponent swung his arms continuously.
Flames spread like a tide, covering the entire bottom of the pit.
The other ‘parents’ from the ‘Hundred Major Families’ frowned slightly but said nothing more.
Because that was just Cook’s personality.
As for the scorching flames?
Though it seemed like the flames covered the entire ground, they actually already avoided the feet of every ‘parent’ from the ‘Hundred Major Families’.
"Heh, you think you can escape?”
Cook scoffed, raising a palm.
The flames reconsolidated!
Within a breath, a fireball with a diameter of 10 meters appeared in the air.
And this was just the beginning!
As time passed, the fireball quickly grew larger.
After three breaths, it reached the previous size of 30 meters in diameter.
And it was still growing.
When the diameter exceeded 50 meters, Cook finally stopped, his face obscured by the flames, his cold laughter audible.
"Do you really think I haven’t found you?”
As he spoke, Cook waved his hand.
The fireball, now over 50 meters in diameter, hurtled directly towards Jason in the twisted ‘room’ impacted by external forces.
There was nothing wrong with this scene.
