Chapter 90: An Unsustainable Enemy
Under Neville's command, the army of Star Fighters launched an onslaught on the enemy, and the army passed like a battle axe in his hand, mercilessly reaping the lives of the enemy.
The flames of war spread to all corners of the underground world in a short period of time, countless dynasties were destroyed, and even the stars above the canopy were dimmed a lot in this great war.
The relatively mild cessation of the Maven's reign came to an end, and Neville started an all-out war with iron and blood, earning himself the title of Axe King.
It was a nightmare for both the star gods and the rulers of the dynasty.
Although they knew that the Star Fighters under the Axe Throne were powered by Star Weapons, and they tried their best to collect them during the war, the number of Star Fighters did not decrease at all, but increased with the continuous fall of the Star God.
It's just that you can't give full play to the power of the star weapon, and you can't even limit the number of opponents, so how can this war continue.
At this time, the rulers of the dynasty regretted their previous defections, thinking that they would also get a piece of the pie by helping the star gods clean up the Maven and the exiles.
However, the emergence of the Axe King and the Star Fighter has made them understand what it means to shoot themselves in the foot.
If they continue to fight, they will be completely destroyed.
The rulers of the dynasty, who had no intention of fighting again, sent emissaries to once again express their desire for peace.
…………
Tiger beetle nest, royal palace.
A group of tall and mighty ant warriors walked in the corridor leading to the palace, dark armor like the night sky colliding with each other as they walked, emitting a neat timbre that gave people a full sense of oppression.
Seeing this, the palace guards standing guard on both sides of the road could not help but cast envious glances.
However, envy is envy, but the captain of the guard is very sober, and he immediately stopped this team of ant clan warriors.
"Weapons are not allowed in the palace, so if you want to enter, please leave your weapons here."
Hearing that they were going to leave their weapons, the team of ant clan warriors in front of them suddenly turned pale, and one of them said angrily:
"No one can make the Star Fighter let go of his weapon unless he dies on the battlefield, are you cursing us to death?"
When the captain of the guard heard this, he shook his head again and again and explained aggrievedly:
"Brothers, don't get me wrong, this is also my duty, since the Maven was assassinated and injured, this rule has been in place, and I didn't deliberately target you."
"Hmph, don't give me a trap, our brothers are fighting on the front line, but there is no brother like you who hides in the palace and enjoys happiness.
Don't talk nonsense, a word let us in. ”
The captain of the guard had long heard that most of the Star Fighters were not very good-tempered, and he had always thought it was nonsense, but in the face of the other party's aggressiveness, he had to believe this statement.
Just as he was in a dilemma, a voice rang out from the ranks of the Star Fighters.
"Okay, since the rules are like this, don't embarrass him anymore, I'll just go in alone, and you all wait for me here."
With that, the man stepped out of the group and handed over the tomahawk in his hand.
When he saw the other party's appearance clearly, the captain of the guard was flattered and said:
"Your Highness the Axe King, if it's you, you don't need to."
Neville was noncommittal, and instead asked:
"I've been on the front line all this time, how is the Maven's injury?"
When the captain of the guard heard this, he hurriedly replied:
"I don't know the exact extent of the Maven's injury, but he hasn't left the dormitory for a long time, and I've heard that the situation is a little not optimistic."
As he spoke, he stole a glance at Neville, but unfortunately there was no expression on the other party's face, and he couldn't see joy or anger at all.
Before he could react, a heavy object was stuffed into his arms, and he looked down to see that it was the star weapon handed over by the other party.
"Since it is the rule of the palace to hand over weapons, let's follow the process."
Handing over the tomahawk that never left him to the guards for safekeeping, Neville walked straight to the palace without saying a word.
He quickly passed through the doorways, and soon came to the Maven's bedchamber.
Seeing Neville coming in a hurry, the palace steward immediately greeted him.
"His Royal Highness the Axe King, the Maven is taking medicine, do you want to ......"
However, Neville was not in the mood to accosting the other party at all, and despite the steward's obstruction, he went directly into the dormitory, and saw Spencer, who was half-lying on the bed and described as withered.
"Neville, you're here!"
Seeing that the visitor was a friend he hadn't seen in years, Spencer smiled despite being weak.
However, Neville, on the other side, couldn't laugh at all.
He never imagined that during the time he was out to fight, his old friend's injury not only did not improve, but seemed to be worse.
Instead of responding to Spencer, he angrily grabbed the palace steward next to him and lifted him up by the neck.
"No wonder you won't let me in, as the steward of the palace, that's how you take care of the Maven?
Why hasn't anyone informed me of the Maven's illness for so long, and this time if I hadn't come back from the front for some time, I'm afraid I'd still be kept in the dark, you guys really damn it! ”
Neville tightened his hands as he coldly glanced at the rest of the room with his abyssal eyes.
The armor on the palace steward was crushed by him, and it seemed that he was going to die in the next moment.
"Neville, let him go, I asked him to hide it from you.
You're on the front lines, and I don't want to distract you from my physical condition.
I knew very well that I couldn't blame anyone in the room, they had done their best. ”
Hearing Spencer's words, Neville reluctantly let go of his arm.
"If you're lucky, get out of here!"
The palace steward who had survived the catastrophe did not dare to say more, so he hurriedly beckoned the attendants who had fed the medicine and the other servants who served the Maven to leave the palace.
Here, Neville silently walked to the bedside, looking at his emaciated old friend, his face full of guilt.
"Well, don't make that look, I'm not dead, am I.
I'm in poor health now, but I shouldn't have a problem making it to the end of this big fight.
Hehe, there's been a lot of good news lately, and I don't think the war is over, am I right, man. ”
Looking at his old friend, whose eyes were full of Xiyi, Neville sighed to himself.
"Spencer, you asked me to come back this time, is it because of the peace talks?"
"Well, the emissaries of the other Ant Clan Dynasty have hit a nail in your place, so they have found me, hoping that I can convince you."
When Neville heard this, a sneer appeared on his face.
"They really don't even want to face in order to survive, your serious injuries are difficult to heal, it is those damn guys and the star gods that caused it, how embarrassed are they to come to beg you."
Spencer was silent for a moment, then spoke:
"As the person concerned, although I hate their betrayal in the first place, I still hope that you will give them another chance.
I'm not interceding for the rulers of the dynasty, but for the future of the ant clan.
Neville, you know, exiles cannot replace the dynasty, they are the cornerstone of the ant tribe to reproduce. ”
