Chapter 118 The First Treasure Arrives
Just as Suk and his men were resting and waiting for the time to pass in the Doomblade camp, a commotion suddenly came from a distant area.
"What's wrong?"
Many people ran out and saw a dense mass of figures flying in the sky, all of them Star-level beings dressed in dark red battle suits.
The detection using the auxiliary optical computer was even more astonishing. "Almost all of them are at the ninth level of the Constant Star Realm?"
"Where did all these people come from?"
"Whose side are they from?"
Under the watchful eyes of many, thousands of dark red battle-suited star-level warriors flew to the area of the Jialan Imperial Court.
"Hahaha—good, your Blood Spring Society has pledged allegiance to this prince, and this prince will definitely not treat you unfairly." A clear laugh rang out, and a tall, slightly curly-haired, fair-skinned young man dressed in a magnificent gold and purple battle suit walked out with a joyful expression.
Beside him stood a tall, beautiful young woman with long, slightly curly hair, fair skin, and dressed in a blue and white striped close-fitting battle suit. She smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on acquiring such elite troops."
"Are those the twelfth prince and fifteenth princess of the current emperor of the Jialan Empire?" People watching from afar exclaimed in surprise.
The founding emperor of the Jialan Empire was the "Jialan God Lord," but the Jialan Empire has been established for many years, and the God Lord has long since stopped interfering in affairs. The emperors are all descendants of the previous generation. As long as there is someone in the Jialan royal family who can become a Realm Lord, they will definitely become the next emperor. Even if they are not strong enough, they can still become emperor if they have the support of many Realm Lords.
The current Emperor Jialan is merely a Domain Lord who ascended the throne with the support of a group of Realm Lords, hence his extreme courtesy towards them. Many of his concubines also come from the families of those Realm Lords, resulting in numerous factions within the harem and intense power struggles among the princes and princesses.
The twelfth prince and the fifteenth princess had a good relationship because they were born to the same mother. They came to the Crimson Dragon World together with bodyguards to participate in the apprentice mercenary assessment. After encountering the treasure, they immediately realized that there was an opportunity. If they could seize this opportunity and obtain the treasure of the Crimson Dragon World, they would undoubtedly gain the support of the world lords and become the next emperor.
With the coordination of the official forces, the twelfth prince has now become the official representative in the Crimson Dragon world.
Managing all the official teams and overseeing the overall situation, his mission is to acquire as much of the treasure left behind by the master of the Crimson Dragon World as possible.
The addition of thousands of elite members from the Blood Spring Society has given the Twelfth Prince's side a significant boost, and has also made other forces feel threatened.
The official alliance was formed too quickly. In just one day, the internal forces were integrated, creating an enormous force that dominated the region and caught various civilian organizations, such as Doomsday Blade, who were still trying to recruit free adventurers off guard.
"It seems the authorities are determined to seize the treasures of the Crimson Dragon World this time." Suk stood in the crowd, listening to the discussions around him, and understood what was going on. He thought to himself, "And I've joined the civilian organization Doomsday Blade, plus the Blood Spring Society, which I have a grudge against, is also on the side of the Twelfth Prince. It seems that the Jialan Imperial Court will be my enemy from now on."
Suk had no good feelings towards the Blood Spring Society, and by extension, he also had no good feelings towards the Twelfth Prince, who had won over the Blood Spring Society.
As the official power of the Jialan Empire expanded, other forces sensed the crisis and began to secretly communicate in an attempt to unite.
Given the current situation, neither side has the confidence to confront the army of the Twelfth Prince alone.
Time passed quickly, and a day had gone by since the black giant appeared.
Just as everyone was eagerly anticipating it, stars suddenly appeared in the distant sky, standing out vividly against the darkness.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—one by one, stars fell from the sky, like shooting stars, trailing dazzling tails.
It crashed into various parts of the continent.
"The treasure has appeared!"
"So it fell from the sky?"
"Quickly, record the location!"
"All teams, prepare to depart!"
The troops of the seven major civilian organizations stationed at the Jialan Imperial Court in Poison Dragon Abyss were in an uproar.
Meanwhile, Suk, Saki, Eloi, and their seven bodyguards mingled in the crowd, looking up at the falling meteors as they plummeted across the continent at incredible speeds.
Some of them were heading towards Poison Dragon Abyss.
"boom!"
"boom!"
The area of Poison Dragon Abyss is extremely vast, and a total of seven "meteors" fell into it, evenly scattered around the perimeter.
"We've found treasure here!"
"Quick, grab these treasures first!"
The twelfth prince issued a stern order: "Everyone obey my commands! Anyone who dares to obstruct us will be killed without mercy!"
In just one day, the official forces led by the Jialan Imperial Court had gathered a large number of adventurers. Combined with their original forces, the number had reached tens of thousands. With more than ten thousand people, it was a sea of people. Tens of thousands of star-level warriors obeyed the twelfth prince, responding in unison with thunderous shouts, creating a magnificent spectacle.
Provoked by the Twelfth Prince's side, the Doomsday Blade, the Absolute Cloud Society, the Giant Wave Mansion, the Li Yuan Palace, the Wind Iron Tower, and the Flower Sea Continent...
The seven top civilian organizations of the Giants Alliance have finally united, and their forces have gathered together to form an army whose numbers are no less than those of the Twelve Princes' army, and their momentum is not weak.
However, the various forces, whose strengths were originally roughly equal or even hostile to each other, were temporarily united but were not as united as the twelfth prince.
They only joined forces for the sake of the treasures, and now that a total of 108 treasures have fallen to various places, this temporary united army is showing signs of disintegration.
There are so many treasures, everyone can go and grab them; there's absolutely no need to risk your life at this time.
Seeing that the twelfth prince's forces immediately split into large groups and flew towards the nearest treasure landing point, the civilian organizations discussed the matter and decided that, apart from sending people to retrieve the two treasures closest to them, they would simply fight their own battles. The seven major organizations split up and went to various parts of the continent to search for other treasures.
Amidst the chaos, Suk and his group secretly broke away from the Doomsday Blade team and went to a remote place. The Doomsday Blade team leaders did not assign them to any team and let them act freely, since they didn't need a few more people anyway.
Seeing that no one was around, Suk took out the spaceship and everyone flew inside.
"Quick, quick, quick! Go get the treasure!" Saki exclaimed excitedly.
"The landing locations of all the treasures have been recorded." Suk stood in the central control room. The large screen on the console lit up, displaying a map with small dots on it, which were the landing points of the 108 treasures.
"Based on our position and speed, we've calculated the optimal route." Suk's eyes gleamed. "Using the spaceship's speed and maneuverability, we can completely get our hands on some treasures before the other factions."
The spaceship immediately took off, accelerated rapidly, and soon transformed into a streak of light, flying away at an astonishing speed.
