Chapter 1745: Change of Situation!
Max looked at him silently for a moment.
Then he laughed.
It was not loud, but the mockery in it spread clearly across the sky.
“You people really never learn.”
The dark blue armored man’s eyes narrowed. “Do not think your ranking will protect you. Rank seven only means you have gathered many Killing Points. It does not mean you can fight everyone here alone.”
Max’s smile became colder.
“I heard something similar not long ago,” he said. “Karo also thought numbers could stop me.”
Some of the surrounding participants’ faces changed when they heard Karo’s name. Clearly, news of what had happened outside Starfall Haven had not fully reached everyone yet, but some had heard fragments. The demon Karo had been known among many participants, and if Max was mentioning him in such a tone, then something serious must have happened.
Nancy slowly drew her sword and said quietly, “Max, we do not have time to waste here. Caroline may still be in danger.”
Max nodded. “I know.”
He raised his gaze and looked at the hundreds of people surrounding them.
“Then let us make this quick.”
The moment those words fell, the atmosphere in the sky became even heavier.
The dark blue armored man’s expression turned cold, and he immediately lifted his sword higher. “Attack formation!”
In an instant, hundreds of prepared attacks brightened at once.
Sword lights screamed.
Elemental spears trembled.
Talismans burned.
Bows released sharp killing intent.
The sky above the neutral city was filled with power ready to descend, and all of it was aimed at Max and Nancy.
Max stood at the center of the encirclement with a faint smile on his face, his eyes calm, his body relaxed, and his gaze so cold that even several attackers felt a chill move through their hearts.
Below them, the neutral city remained peaceful.
Above it, battle was about to erupt.
“Stop!” Just as the hundreds of attacks were about to be launched, a loud shout suddenly rang across the sky, and the command carried such authority that the tense atmosphere froze in an instant.
The sword lights stopped trembling, the elemental spears halted in midair, the drawn bowstrings remained pulled tight without releasing, and even the dark blue armored man who had been preparing to give the final order turned his head with a stiff expression.
A young man appeared in the sky not far away. He wore a white and silver battle robe embroidered with faint sword patterns, and although his aura was not wildly released, the sharpness hidden within him was enough to make the surrounding air feel as if it had been filled with invisible blades.
His expression was dark, his eyes were cold, and the moment he appeared, every person involved in surrounding Max and Nancy lowered their heads at once. Even the dark blue armored man, who had acted so arrogantly before, suddenly became uncertain, and the confidence on his face faded at a visible speed.
Max looked at the newcomer with a faintly interested expression.
Nancy’s eyes moved slightly as she whispered, “He should be someone with a higher status in this group.”
Max did not respond, but his gaze remained calm.
The young man ignored Max and Nancy for the moment and turned his cold eyes directly toward the dark blue armored man. “What are you doing here?” he asked, his voice carrying obvious anger.
The dark blue armored man opened his mouth, but before he could answer, the young man’s expression became even darker. “Did I not tell you to gather everyone who passed through the neutral city at the entrance?” he shouted. “Why are you blocking people in the sky and preparing to start a battle here?”
The surrounding people lowered their heads even further.
The dark blue armored man’s face changed several times before he finally forced himself to speak. “But he is an enemy of the Sword God Palace, and so we thought we should take care of him personally.”
“Personally?” the young man repeated, his voice turning colder. “Are you out of your mind?” The dark blue armored man trembled slightly.
The young man’s gaze became sharper, and the invisible sword aura around him made several people nearby feel their skin sting. “Are you trying to defy Princess Rosaline’s order?” he demanded.
The moment the name Princess Rosaline was spoken, the expressions of everyone surrounding Max changed. Even Nancy glanced at Max, her eyes carrying a trace of surprise, while Max’s gaze sharpened slightly. He did not know who this Princess Rosaline was, but judging from the reaction of the dark blue armored man and the hundreds of people around them, her status was clearly not ordinary.
“I dare not!” the dark blue armored man immediately said, his voice carrying fear as he lowered his head. “I would never dare to defy Princess Rosaline’s order.”
“Good,” the young man said coldly. He then raised his hand and pointed toward Max and Nancy. “Take the two of them to the entrance and make them stand in the line.” The dark blue armored man hesitated for only a fraction of a second before nodding quickly.
“Understood.” The young man’s expression did not soften. He looked at the dark blue armored man again and said in a warning tone, “I do not want anything like this to happen again. Princess Rosaline gave clear instructions. Anyone who passes through this neutral city is to be gathered at the entrance, not attacked without permission because of your personal judgment.”
The dark blue armored man lowered his head even further. “Understood.”
“Good.”
After saying that, the young man gave Max a brief glance. His eyes paused on Max for a moment, as if he had also recognized something about him, but he did not say anything more. In the next instant, his figure blurred and disappeared from the sky, leaving behind only a faint trace of sword aura that slowly faded into the wind.
“If you don’t want to die and lose all your points then come and follow us.” The dark blue armored man then said to Max.
