Chapter 1568 Chaos
The entire situation went out of control and devolved into chaos with over hundred of wolf half-bloods joining the battle to help Tidus the Chain Breaker. When they noticed that the guards seemed to have no intention of moving to defuse the situation, other groups that had been hesitant quickly came to join in.
This time, the group came from various major factions that had allied ties with Karst, Locarios, and Corvin. One of these groups was naturally the wolf pack of the Ironcrest faction.
With the inclusion of reinforcement for the factions' side into the table, the arena quickly turned into a place where a battle royale of a thousand wolf half-bloods took place, between those who supported the rebels and those who supported the elites.
"My King, this is madness! Please stop this!" Philips Corvin said. He initially wanted to ask for an explanation of what was happening, but when he saw how the guards and officials reacted to the situation, he changed his mind and persuaded the Alpha King to stop the chaos.
Marcus Silvermane finally turned towards the dozen patriarchs that were waiting for his words. However, he only stared at them for a moment before he turned around once more and casually said, "They haven't broken any rules, so there's no need to stop this."
Those words caused the patriarchs to be completely shocked. The rules for the final round indeed only spoke about rewards and amnesty for the last criminal who survived. However, they truly did not expect that the Alpha King would actually mean it literally like this.
Simply put, the situation made all the leaders of the Wolf factions turn frozen. If it weren't earlier, now it was obvious that the Alpha King was planning something. They discussed it with their colleagues, and some were quick to guess that it was some kind of loyalty test.
Although there was still much uncertainty, these people at least knew one thing for sure. That the Alpha King's plans were aimed at the Locarios and Karst factions.
The patriarchs of both were watching the unfolding battle in such irritation, seeing their top young fighters now being ganged up on by a bunch of nobodies, unable to do anything due to a sheer numerical loss.
Rikard Karst seemed to have finally lost his patience when he saw his cousin Riddick get pummeled, his body being smashed repeatedly to the ground by the Chain Breaker. He turned to the Alpha King and said loudly, "My King, if that is the rule, then please forgive me for doing this." 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢
With a gesture of his hand, suddenly dozens of magus in white fur cloaks stepped out from the crowds of spectators and quickly entered the arena. These were the fighters that Rikard had brought over from Planet Karst, in preparation for dealing with any threat.
When they saw that Alpha King was just watching – doing nothing despite such an act, the Locarios pair decided to follow suit and ordered the dozens of fighters they brought along to do the same as the Karst.
Veteran elite warriors made their appearance in the arena, adding a new element into the already chaotic situation. Not only were they highly trained and experienced, some of these magus were even at the Half Moon stage.
These elites arrived bringing with them their powerful weapons, various artifacts and specialities. Locario, known for their advanced weaponry, brought their energy guns with them. Meanwhile, the fighters of the Karst faction brought their pets and wolf summons.
The Silvermane Arena was a massive bloody mess at this point, with multiple casualties occurring every second that passed. In such a chaotic situation, even powerful magus could fall if they weren't careful, dying under the hands of a saint level warrior.
On the other hand, such a sight only made Emery even more certain of his previous suspicions. Immediately, he ordered his pack to take a step back, keeping their distance from the center of the raging battle.
It was at this moment that another disturbance came from one of his pack, but it was not Yoro.
"Chief, there's something wrong with Tatyana!"
The brown-haired girl was currently on her knees as she struggled to speak, "I am sorry brother… I can.. I will resist this!"
Such words, spoken in their current circumstances, couldn't help but make shivers run down Emery's body. Immediately, Emery fell into contemplation trying to deduce the reason why,
'Someone is trying to influence her, why now?'
But then, he quickly realized that it was not just Tatyana. Even Yoro and Andrei, both of whom had their faces turning pale, said that their heads were spinning crazily. "C-chief, something's wrong…"
Seeing this bizarre phenomenon happening to three members of his pack, Emery immediately looked at Morgana. Luckily, the red-haired girl didn't seem to feel or be affected by anything.
He then turned to Beowulf, hoping he would have some answers. To his surprise, the old chief's face was also pale as he said, "it's a powerful influence… it wants me, us, to take sides and join the fight."
Upon hearing that, Emery turned his gaze to the arena seats where the spectators were.
In such chaos, the crowds should have started to escape from the arena, instead, Emery could see that most were still cheering at the battle while some, saint-level warriors and magus alike started to jump down, entered the arena, and put their lives to join the battle.
Even Freaki and his Bone Coyote, as well as the Female fox groups Sacred Rose, seemed to be affected by the influence as well.
Now there were thousands of wolf half-bloods fighting in the Silvermane Arena. The number of lives lost every second reached dozens, and one of them was Doppa as Emery saw the Titanium Wolf crushed under the hand of a magus.
"This is crazy… who could actually do this?!"
Beowulf was struggling when he explained that it was the most powerful influence he ever saw, and that the reason Twilight Fang had not been completely overwhelmed by it was solely because of Emery's Mythical bloodline.
"The only one who could do such a thing is one with the highest rank bloodline… the Alpha King himself."
Emery once again cast his gaze at where the Alpha King was, and to his shock, the man was indeed raising his staff, showing an action similar to what he had done during the Blood Moon Festival.
