Chapter 1301: Chapter 28: The Third Time
Under the moonlight, Caesar, shrouded in a layer of moonbeam, gently flapped his peculiar flesh wings akin to claws, causing his body to rise and fall gently.
He had ceased the terrifying howling sound, now gazing coldly at the earth.
After the horrific sound stopped, the Round Table Knights no longer felt dizzy… It seemed not to be a sound-based attack.
But whether there was any hidden threat, they couldn’t be sure—after all, the figure before them was a rogue who had seized the power of the Holy Armor through unknown means; no one knew if such a howl concealed any special effects.
Gareth and the others remained motionless, seeking to remain unchanged to deal with any change.
However, as time slowly passed, the surroundings remained normal, apart from the wind growing colder… It seemed this howl hadn’t truly caused any mental damage.
Caesar still hovered majestically in the air like a king, overlooking the earth.
The doctor suddenly furrowed his brows, his face changed dramatically, and he blurted out: “What did you say? Fog Capital is in turmoil?!”
“What happened?”
The other four turned to look at the doctor.
His expression was grim as he looked up at Caesar under the moonlit night, gritting his teeth, “Now, all registered beastmen in Fog Capital’s districts are in a frenzied state, causing destruction everywhere… Look!”
The doctor pointed far into the distance, towards Fog Capital, and everyone looked over to see small sparks rising, with half the city already painted red, even some tall buildings ablaze.
“It’s his howl!!”
Instantly, they simultaneously realized Caesar’s true intention!
“Oberon!! You actually!!?”
In the night, Caesar slightly bowed like an actor ready to take a curtain call, “Then, please enjoy the special performance I’ve prepared for you all.”
“You’re trying to escape!!” Gareth frantically thrust swordlight skyward.
At this moment, Caesar took out a bizarre scroll from an unknown source, opening it right as the swordlight arrived, but the final strike hit just his afterimage… He had vanished!
“What do we do now?”
The group gathered once more.
Mr. Gareth’s expression was grave, “As far as I know, currently in Fog Capital, there are about three hundred registered individuals with beastman bloodlines… If we allow these guys to continue their destruction, by sunrise tomorrow, I fear Fog Capital will…”
Three hundred beastmen in a frenzy, in a bustling city, their destructive power is unimaginable…
…
…
Bam Bam Bam Bam Bam——!!!
On the street, the sound of bullets bursting from their chambers rang loudly, as fire spread on sidewalks, and overturned cars lay everywhere.
Fog Capital’s police had formed a barricade with police cars, about a dozen officers using the vehicles as cover, firing wildly at a massive creature nearly two and a half meters tall…
Bullets poured into the giant’s body, blood spewing forth, yet it didn’t stop the creature’s rampage, instead further inciting its ferocity.
It became more violent, with tusks sticking out of its jaw like a wild boar, opening wide like devil’s teeth!
It casually tore a car door off nearby, using it as a shield, continuing forward… Fog Capital’s standard issue pistols couldn’t halt its advance!
Suddenly, it leapt high, heavily landing atop a police car, instantly crushing it, shattering the glass.
Bending down, it roared again, and a police officer collapsed in terror, trembling on the ground…
Similar scenes unfolded on numerous streets.
It was as if doomsday had come!
…
The-Fianna headquarters control room.
The Prime Minister slammed his fist onto the table, angrily staring at the screen, teeth clenched in hate, his voice squeezed out as if calling, “Oberon…”
“Prime Minister, several ministers simultaneously called, and there are generals from the military too… Who would you like to respond to first?”
“Get me every major TV station and telecommunications operator!” The Prime Minister swiftly stood up, “I want all information spread in Fog Capital stopped in ten… five minutes!”
“This?”
“Do you want chaos outside just like here?” The Prime Minister exclaimed, “I don’t currently have the mind to handle reactions from outside; I need to stop this riot!”
“Understood.” The officer quickly nodded, yet those calls from ministers and military leaders rang piercingly, “And these calls?”
“Hang up!” The Prime Minister took a deep breath, “Also, connect me to Sir Pukins!”
…
When The-Fianna headquarters connected with Sir Pukins’ Manor’s Knight Agency, both sides saw the other’s unpleasant expression.
The Prime Minister was somewhat surprised to see the Knight Agency leaders from various places seated at the large round table, he furrowed his brows.
Sir Pukins was silent for a few seconds before taking the lead to speak, “Prime Minister, it seems your place is directing those peculiar armored warriors.”
“Pukins.” The Prime Minister spoke sternly, “I don’t have time to argue with you here, nor is it the time… Fog Capital is in riot, I’ve mobilized the army, and I need your Knight Agency’s support! Tell me, how many of these monsters are in Fog Capital!”
“They are beastmen.” Sir Pukins stood up, saying: “Or human-beast hybrids, not monsters.”
“Your Knight Agency actually allows these monsters to marry humans??” The Prime Minister widened his eyes, restraining his anger, “Forget it, this isn’t the time to quarrel! Give me a number!”
“If the frenzy is collective, then the approximate number should be around three hundred forty.”
“Three hundred forty?! What else haven’t you told the Cabinet!!”
Sir Pukins calmly replied, “Our Knight Agency is equally interested in those highly powerful destructive-warrior weapons.”
The Prime Minister remained silent for a while, then gritting his teeth, “How many of yours can be dispatched? Can you assure suppressing these monsters… beastmen! I don’t want the army’s artillery aimed at the city.”
“You take charge of evacuation and rescue.” Sir Pukins breathed deeply, “We’ll quickly suppress this riot.”
“Good! I don’t want any beastmen leaving Fog Capital! It’s like a plague!!”
The screen turned off.
Everyone at the round table looked at Pukins, the elder sighed, waving his hand, “Order, deploy all knights… As long as they have combat capability, no matter where they are, deploy them. Everyone… please quickly allocate some personnel from your agencies.”
The key to escorting the Holy Grail to Fog Capital this time, although there are guards from the Twelve Knights around, there are not many knights accompanying them.
Everyone had solemn expressions, and after nodding, each left the conference room to direct the agencies in their jurisdictions… Here, only Sir Pukins and the Great Knight holding the Demonic Sword—Simpton were left.
The knight suddenly asked, “How much of the soul remains in the Demonic Sword?”
Simpton responded expressionlessly, “The intelligence obtained by activating the Holy Grail this time has already been consumed completely.”
“Consumed so much…” The knight pondered for a moment before speaking seriously, “Mr. Simpton, we need more sacrifices. Only the power of the Holy Grail can erase the impact caused by this riot. Step forward!”
Simpton, the Great Knight, directly stepped forward and knelt on one knee before Sir Pukins.
With his staff, he pressed lightly on the knight’s shoulder, “Knight, I entrust you with glory. Please bring us light.”
“Yes! My lord!”
…
…
This might have been the most unbelievable day of his life… Will thought.
At a loss about the chaos outside… The signal seemed to have suddenly cut off, unable to connect to any network, and even the landline couldn’t connect, the TV had no signal—like suddenly being disconnected from the whole world.
His companions were still anxiously trying to make phone calls… Will’s face was somewhat pale, his hands moving mechanically as he bandaged Miss Beastkin’s arm.
Although unclear why she was self-harming, it seemed to be a way for her to alleviate some kind of pain.
Oga fainted suddenly and was embraced by Miss Beastkin without showing signs of waking up… Meanwhile, Mr. Klein was holding a phone and talking to someone at this moment.
“Why is your phone still working?”
“It’s a custom device from our agency, using a private channel.” Klein quickly said while turning his head, “Now all external communications have been cut off… It’s chaotic! I’m sorry, I can’t explain in an instant. Please do not leave here, because it’s extremely dangerous outside.”
“I know it’s dangerous…”
Looking out the window at the distant building on fire and the sounds of smashing and shouting on the street, a companion of Will shivered… Perhaps just a subconscious action, as he looked at Miss Beastkin again, his eyes carried a tinge of fear, even stepping back half a step unintentionally.
At this moment, a violent collision came from the entrance hall of the social work center… Klein’s face quickly changed, saying a word for everyone to stay behind before rushing out!
When Klein reached the entrance hall of the social work center, he saw a car had crashed directly into the hall… The car shook continuously!
Inside the car, a black man with an eye patch was being pressed into the seat… He was struggling, hands desperately pushing against the huge arm of his opponent.
“Nick!”
Klein, greatly surprised, kicked the door in, knocking the huge object out of the opposite door and dragging Nick out at the same time!
“This beastman suddenly went berserk on the road!” Nick said, panting urgently.
“All the beastmen in the city are going berserk.” Klein said quickly at this time, “Specifically, check the agency’s intranet notifications… For now, protect yourself well!”
Because at this time, the beastman who had been kicked out had already regained footing — its clothes were tattered, with only a few strips left hanging on its body.
Nearly two meters tall, its arms far thicker than an ordinary person’s legs, sharp claws and tusks, its entire body exuding a violent aura.
Klein took a deep breath… Without any weapon on him, facing a berserk beastman bare-handed was no easy task!
“There’s spare gear in the trunk!”
“Nick, I love you!!”
Klein exclaimed with joy, quickly kicking at the beastman from the front of the car, knocking it aside and quickly retrieving a warhammer and round shield from the trunk.
Like a keyboard fighter, Klein struck the round shield several times with the warhammer, making noise, attracting the beastman’s attention, “Hey! Big guy, do you like apple pie?!”
The beastman, provoked, charged crazily, and Klein swiftly dodged to the side, once again striking the round shield, “Big guy, over here!”
The beastman roared angrily and charged again — Klein dodged perfectly again, and the beastman crashed directly into the wall behind Klein.
The immense power made half its body smash through the wall, its body suddenly caught within. As it pulled its head free, the warhammer swung directly to meet it.
The warhammer imbued with the powerful force of knights cultivated over years, crashed down, instantly dazing the beastman, dizzying it to the ground… But it obviously hadn’t lost the ability to act.
Klein raised the warhammer again.
But at this moment, a figure stood in his way… Miss Beastkin spread her arms, blocking the beastman’s path.
“Move aside!!”
“NO—! NO!! Please! Please!”
“He’s very dangerous!”
Miss Beastkin hurriedly took out her phone, speaking quickly, “This isn’t his intent! He’s just lost! He doesn’t want to hurt anyone! I can calm him down, please trust me!”
Klein instinctively glanced at Nick not far away, the two exchanged a quick look, and Klein slowly nodded, then stepped back a few steps, still holding the warhammer and shield up.
After a brief dizziness passed, the beast’s berserk nature flared again, heedlessly grabbing at whoever was in front — Miss Beastkin nimbly dodged the attack, then cupped its cheeks with both hands, pressing her forehead against its, her amber eyes gazing into its.
She murmured something softly, with a strange rhythm, like a language, or a song… But amazingly, the berserk beast seemed to genuinely calm down.
Klein and Nick exchanged glances again, frowning slightly.
…
…
The alarm sounded abruptly.
Outside the window, the city began to glow with firelight… From the upper floor suite of the Song Dynasty Hotel looking down, the city seemed to be experiencing warfare.
Luo Qiu silently watched.
At this moment, the suite door suddenly opened, and the maid walked in, holding a disheveled man.
The man was unconscious, but from his tattered clothing, it seemed clear that when intact, it was a chef’s uniform.
“Master, I brought him back.”
The maid casually threw him to the ground, “The hotel should have only this one.”
Luo Qiu nodded, looking outside again, suddenly saying, “Do you think this counts as the third time?”
Obviously, had already stayed in the hotel room…
