1249: Chapter 480: Redeeming Sins with rits_2 1249: Chapter 480: Redeeming Sins with rits_2 This ti, a desperate gamble must be made: kill Owen Bertram!
Even if they could achieve this, the expedition has been a complete failure, and promotion to a five-star admiral is no longer possible.
Killing Owen Bertram is rely the hope of offsetting their guilt – hoping that when they return to Boneset Country, their punishnt will be lessened.
The other three Seven Mountains Powers share the sa thoughts.
The losses from this ti are too terrifying, and they will definitely be implicated.
They even hope that after killing Owen Bertram, they could storm the Wood Dynasty’s Capital and, if possible, kill that “Abner Lane”!
Upon arriving at the nearby sea, Lanard imdiately contacted Lady Ilda, who had been waiting for them for a long ti.
However, after their conversation, she remained silent for a full fifteen minutes.
Of course, Lady Ilda hoped that Boneset Country would be victorious.
After all, she was one of the Red Barbarians, and even though she had a tacit understanding with Lord Owen, she didn’t really like the current relationship between the two of them.
She had high hopes for this expedition army, and yet, before it could even reach the nearby sea, it was utterly destroyed.
‘Why don’t you useless creatures just die?
What good is it for you to co to the Eastern Land all alone?
Do you think that with just the four of you, you can conquer the vast Eastern Land?’
Lady Ilda ca from a research background, and she had a scholar’s cool judgnt of the larger trends: with such a powerful expedition, it’s possible that this is Boneset Country’s last “radiance.” Does Boneset Country have the ability to assemble another expedition force of the sa caliber?
The answer is ‘no’ deep down in Lady Ilda’s heart.
Unless the Fla of Stars is willing to fully support Boneset Country, but Their Majestic always follows the principle of equal reward to offering – while Lady Ilda is still a devout believer, she understands even better that Their Majestic would not support her country unconditionally.
After a long silence, Lady Ilda had thought through many things and finally asked with deep pain, “What do you plan to do?”
“I want to kill Owen Bertram!
Burn his corpse to ashes and give his soul to My God to suffer eternal pain!” Lanard growled, almost madly.
Lady Ilda replied, “Owen Bertram is currently stationed on that island.
You can go ahead.”
She gave them the location, and Lanard imdiately said, “As a part of the Empire, you should join us in action!” Lady Ilda bluntly replied, “First of all, I am the Governor of Nanni in the Empire, and you are the commander of the Empire’s expedition.
I am not your subordinate, and you have no right to order to do anything!”
“Secondly, such a huge fleet was destroyed halfway through your expedition – I have enough reason to believe that you are a fool!
So, I won’t listen to any of your suggestions!”
“Lastly, I am a part of the Empire, and I will support you in my own way, but I won’t act with fools because you will drag down with you!”
Lanard was furious, “Ilda, you…”
Lady Ilda had already disconnected the Divine Artifact and stopped talking to him.
Fuming, Lanard cursed, “That bitch!” The other three Seven Mountains Powers tried to comfort him, “Lady Ilda has been in the Eastern Land for too long, and she has picked up the timid and cowardly habits of the Eastern Land people.
She has lost the adventurous spirit of sailing people.
Lanard, don’t worry about her.
Even without her, we will have enough strength.”
“Go to that island.
I will twist Owen Bertram’s neck with my own hands!” Lanard gritted his teeth.
After ending her conversation with Lanard, Lady Ilda felt a slight urge to tell Owen Bertram where Lanard was – to maintain their good working relationship.
However, her wavering faith warned her, bringing her back from the edge of a cliff.
Ultimately, Lady Ilda decided to stay out of the matter: “I am preserving the Empire’s forces for future use, and there is no doubt that this is also a form of support for the Empire.”
She didn’t think that the four idiots would be successful.
She was close to the Eastern Land and had heard about so of Lord Owen’s recent accomplishnts.
She knew that the Seven Mountains Powers sounded powerful, but Lord Owen had previously killed even stronger opponents.
“The wisest choice for these idiots would be to return to the Empire right now and not waste the Empire’s power any further.” But Lady Ilda knew she could not persuade them.
“Hmm… What’s the phrase that the Wood people have: ‘Good advice is hard to co by when dealing with a stubborn ghost.'”
…
Soon, Prince Harrold’s Ship saw the thick fog at sea – the desolate island where the Void Sky Road lay, shrouded in dense fog all year round.
Array defenses have been deployed outside the island, along with Celestial Warships and Sixth Realm masters.
Now, the strength on the island has beco even more terrifying.
In Lanard’s hand was a Seven Mountains Divine Artifact – a sand pot.
Fine, glowing sand poured automatically from the spout, forming a sand table in front of them.
The sand table displayed the various layouts inside and outside the island, and markings of the array defenses outside the island were made with the sand’s radiance.
This Divine Artifact was called “My Vision” and is regarded as a top level surveillance treasure throughout the Red Clan Barbarian Continent.
Lanard carefully examined everything on the island.
When his eyes fell on a specific area, the Divine Artifact would automatically expand that part, displaying a large amount of detail.
In the southeast direction of the island, a special portal attracted Lanard’s attention.
The radiant sand spread out on the sand table, and countless details imdiately danced out.
Lanard was instantly excited, “This is the space transport gate of the Wood bastards!”
