Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2912: 1593: Before the Giant City Gate (2)
Capítulo 2912: Chapter 1593: Before the Giant City Gate (2)
As for the other factions standing with us, they all arrived one after another, making the area in front of the city gate increasingly lively.
“I must say, seeing dozens of clan leaders from second-tier powers gathered together is indeed a scene I’ve never witnessed before.”
Leo Ray thought to himself, continuing to observe silently.
Although the entire scene looked quite harmonious, like an ordinary high-level meeting of various factions, there was a subtle sense of unease spreading.
And it’s no wonder, aside from the minions of the Broken Wing King, most of the factions present had been heavily exploited and oppressed, and now, the Broken Wing King suddenly chose such a time to gather everyone here. Who knows what unspeakable wickedness is being plotted?
“Currently, the fifteen factions standing with me, except for the Dark Half-Elf, are those most severely oppressed by the Broken Wing King yet have never submitted. Besides these, some factions reluctantly chose to submit, and due to limited time, I haven’t reached out to them.”
“But it can be said for sure that many of these factions are unwilling. According to Lila and others’ analysis, once we and the Broken Wing King have a conflict, even if these factions do not choose our side, they will choose to stay neutral and watch changes unfold, at least not causing us any trouble.”
“In other words, barring any accidents, we only need to deal with the loyal minions of the Broken Wing Clan and any complicit winged strongmen who might appear.”
Just when Leo Ray thought of this, a sudden string of extremely abrupt curses came from the direction of the Teleportation Array: “Get out of my way, you stupid thing.”
Looking towards the sound, Leo Ray saw a robust rhino strongman, at least three meters tall, pushing a young giant, whose height matched that of a Half-Titan, to the ground, and snorting coldly: “A good dog doesn’t block the way, it seems you are worse than a dog!”
“Your Majesty!”
After the young giant fell, the other giant guards immediately helped him up.
In the light of the magic sphere, it was apparent that the young giant wore a crown on his head, which appeared dull in the shadow.
From the characteristic one frost-colored eye and one flame-colored eye of the young Giant King and his accompanying giants, it was clear they were the Frost Fire Giants, once disastrously defeated by the Broken Wing King.
“Back then, not only did the Frost Fire Giants lose their Royal Capital, with their main forces annihilated, but most of the Royal Family members, including the old Giant King, were killed in battle, leaving only a Giant Prince to survive.”
“Later, this Giant Prince became the new Frostfire King under the arrangement of the Broken Wing King, and led the Frost Fire Giants into total submission at the feet of the Broken Wing King. It seems this is that Giant Prince from back then.”
Leo Ray watched the young Frostfire King who had just gotten up, and then turned his gaze to another rhino strongman.
The other party had a massive rhino head, with skin that looked extremely rough, and a sharp giant horn on his nose glinting with a fierce cold light. More strikingly, he too wore a crown atop his head.
“Is this the Giant Horned King? It’s said that he is one of the chief lackeys of the Broken Wing King and the most loyal minion.”
With the information at hand, Leo Ray quickly figured out his identity.
It seems that although the Frostfire King also chose to submit to the Broken Wing King, his status is evidently very low.
“It’s laughable that you still call him Your Majesty despite being so useless.”
The Giant Horned King glanced at the silent Frostfire King with disdain and continued: “Oh yes, the Broken Wing King recently found a new ore vein, which was initially our responsibility to mine. However, since we are indeed tied up recently, perhaps the Frost Fire Giants could help instead?”
“But we Frost Fire Giants have already taken responsibility for most of the ore veins in the Throne Corridor, and there are no more people to send. Due to the hardships of working day and night, many young clansmen have never returned!”
An elder Frost Fire Giant stepped forward, frowning: “I ask that Your Majesty the Giant Horned King not go too far!”
“Old thing, what qualifies you to speak here? When I followed His Majesty the Broken Wing King to slaughter you all brutally, you weren’t so capable!”
The Giant Horned King sneered, his aura suddenly rising, and the other guards around him, seeing this, all readied themselves, surrounding the Frost Fire Giants with smiles of disdain.
In terms of strength, the Giant Horned King has four half-step tier-seven strongmen, while the Frost Fire Giants have only the old giant, making the power disparity evident.
“You…”
Seeing this, the unyielding old giant was about to argue further when the young Frostfire King stopped him.
“Your Majesty the Giant Horned King, I understand.”
The young Frostfire King nodded, his tone calm: “Just inform me of the location of the ore vein later, and I will gladly serve the nobility.”
“Haha, that’s more like it. As forces under His Majesty the Broken Wing King, we should naturally help each other!”
The Giant Horned King laughed, then as he walked away, he said to his other accomplices without any regard: “Let’s go, staying with such trash is sheer torture.”
After speaking, the Giant Horned King and his group left with more contemptuous laughter, swaggering off.
Witnessing this scene, the other monarchs of various powers naturally remained silent or simply pretended not to see.
As one of the chief minions of the Broken Wing King, although the power of the Giant Horned King is not as strong as the former, it’s still above common second-tier powers.
Especially with the developments in recent years, the gap has widened significantly. After all, while other powers endured exploitation by the Broken Wing King, the Giant Horned King not only avoided losses but shared in the spoils.
“What are you looking at? Make way for me!”
The Giant Horned King shouted arrogantly all the way, quickly disappearing behind the giant doors. As a lackey of the Broken Wing King, he naturally did not need to wait here.
“That new Frostfire King is truly pathetic.”
The Foxman Clan Leader, Melody Lyon, furrowed her brows slightly, then glanced at Lila with a twinkle in her beautiful eyes: “Unlike Lord Stone Giant Clan Chief, who can associate with such a heroic monarch, even I am quite envious.”
Having said that, the Foxman Clan Leader cast a glance, seemingly unintentionally, at Leo Ray, even coquettishly winking.
Seeing this, Leo Ray inwardly smiled wryly, then turned his gaze to the young Giant King keeping his head down.
Although this guy indeed looked timid and incompetent, in the end, he preserved the Frost Fire Giants under the shadow of the Broken Wing King and was not completely eradicated by him.
Additionally, this fellow is clearly ostracized even among the minions, perhaps he could be my target for recruitment.
After all, according to Lila and Hollis, although the Frost Fire Giants completely submitted to the Broken Wing King, they did not act arrogantly like other minions and remained unobtrusively quiet.
Just as Leo Ray considered this, a commander from the Broken Wing Clan swaggered out from the city gate, stating expressionlessly: “In obedience to our King’s command, you may prepare to enter the city now.”
Upon hearing this, all the clan leaders, who were already quite impatient from waiting, gathered their spirits and approached the city gate.
Mind you, they all are entities at the pinnacle of power within their respective factions, holding supreme authority. Yet now they are being ordered around by a bunch of the Broken Wing King’s lackeys, it’s no wonder they felt displeased.
But then again, the Broken Wing King is undoubtedly the most powerful king among the second-tier powers, commanding a strong, numerous army. Who would dare defy him? That would be courting death!
Noticing the complex emotions swirling in the minds of the various clan leaders, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow subtly and, along with Lila and others, moved toward the large gate.
