Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Vincent and the others could not help but fall into silence as they watched Horace and Dave cry out and shout hysterically.

The human world was in imminent danger, which was why Vincent and the others continued on their journey to explore the dangerous Black Hole world.

The world of the Shadow Demon Race was destroyed by Gajero which was why Ebenezer and the other members of the Shadow Demon Race were separated and went to different worlds.

What Dave and the other elves were facing at that moment was exactly what everyone had experienced before. They were watching the world that they loved being destroyed bit by bit, and finally turning into a wasteland.

However, the Human Race and Shadow Demon Race could be considered luckier than the Elf Race. This was because the Human Race had organized an effective resistance. Plus, with Vincent’s efforts, they had managed to push the front line into the Black Hole world. They had managed to obtain temporary peace for the human world.

Although the Shadow Demon Race was unable to protect their own world, they clearly knew who their enemies were and who they should hate. As long as their clansmen were still alive, they would not forget their hatred. They would also not forget to revive the Shadow Demon Race.

However, the Elf Race was different. The vast majority of their men still have no idea what had happened in their own world. Moreover, they even treated the main culprit who had destroyed their world as a god that they believe in!

Dave knelt on the ground and shouted in grief, “Destroying the Elf World is an irreconcilable enmity. From today onward, the demons and I will be irreconcilable!”

Horace wiped away the tears on his face casually. He turned around and said to Dave, “Well said! Previously, we only resisted for the sake of our beliefs. But from now on, we will resist for the sake of our own world. We should let more elves see what they have done here! We must let everyone know what Gajero has done to the elves!”

Dave nodded and turned to look at Vincent. He asked softly, “Can we develop this place into a space that we can enter quickly? I want to bring more Dark Elves here to take a look when we return to Devil Flame City!”

Vincent thought for a moment before replying, “Yes, but it will take a long time to prepare. We can use the method of the Lingluo Race to open a permanent space tunnel here. We can then use the authority to modify and shorten the length of the space tunnel!”

Dave rubbed his eyes. He stood up to adjust his emotions. After taking a deep breath, he slowly said to everyone, “Thank you for your help. I want to be the first to thank you on behalf of all the elves!”

Horace also turned around and looked at Vincent. He said sincerely, “If you didn’t come to Elf World, I’m afraid the elves wouldn’t know the truth until they themselves were destroyed. You deserve the respect of all the elves!”

Vincent nodded slightly and accepted the bows of Dave and Horace. He then asked, “Now is not the time to be sentimental. Didn’t you follow Andre here? Where is he now?”

Dave and Horace looked at each other and said helplessly, “We chased him all the way here, but we did not see anything along the way. In the end, we lost track of him. When we found this place, we saw signs of the Origin Divine Earth drying up, so we forgot about him!”

After hearing that, Vincent turned to look at the surrounding space. With the blessing of the Art of Heaven’s will, he could confirm that there were no traces of Andre there. He then said to everyone, “Everyone, look around. There might be a passage leading to another place. If we let him escape today, all our previous efforts will be in vain!”

“Yes!”

Everyone replied in unison and began to search the underground space.

Not long after, Avril stood in a corner and shouted at Vincent, “Vincent, come and take a look!”

Vincent and everyone else surrounded Avril. They followed the direction of her finger and saw a medium-sized hole.

Angelina looked at the smooth marks around the hole and sighed in surprise, “This is… a river? But the underground water has dried up!”

Vincent nodded when he saw this. He said, “The Origin Divine Earth flows in the form of an underground river. Back then, Andre and the others were trapped underground by Jacob. There was no way that they could have returned alive. They must have found this river after draining the Origin Divine Earth and used it to leave!”

Ebenezer heard this and immediately said, “Does that mean that Andre is very familiar with this place? I don’t know if we can catch up with him then!”

Vincent narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “No matter where he runs to, we can’t let him go!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Vincent had already taken out the tunnel token. He waved it in front of him and instantly opened a space door.

“Follow me!”

Vincent roared and took the lead to enter the space tunnel.

Everyone immediately followed Vincent into the tunnel. They passed through the thick layers of rocks. Not long after, they saw an even bigger space in front of them.

Dave sized up the space in front of him and said in shock, “Look, the tunnel here is just as tall as one of us, and the surroundings are not smooth. It seems to be man-made! It’s very likely that it’s the tunnel that he used to escape 20 years ago!”

Everyone could not help but nod their heads in agreement when they heard Dave’s guess. At the same time, they quickened their pace and followed behind Vincent. They ended up walking into a deep and winding tunnel for a long time.

After walking for an unknown distance, the space in front of everyone had completely turned dark. They could no longer see any light. Only Vincent was able to continue walking forward. He led everyone forward as his sight was not hindered by the darkness.

Just as everyone was feeling anxious and nervous, Vincent suddenly stopped walking.

Avril, who was following behind Vincent, asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

“Everyone, wait for a moment. I suddenly thought of something!” said Vincent softly.

At the same time, he lowered his head and looked at the ground under his feet. A white skeleton appeared in front of him. It looked like it had been dead for many years, but it still maintained the posture of struggling before it died. It was not difficult for him to feel his unwillingness and resentment at that time.

Vincent fell into silence. He began to gather and integrate the information he had gathered over the past few days in his mind. He came up with a guess very quickly.

Vincent suddenly opened his mouth and asked Dave, “Dave, do you feel like the darkness around you seems to be very familiar?”

Dave sighed in surprise, “Darkness? Familiar? Could it be… could it be that this place is connected to Hell’s Rose?”

Vincent nodded and said, “That’s right! This place should be very close to the entrance of Hell’s Rose! Back then, after Jacob sealed off the exit of Bright Moon City, Andre must have led the remaining individuals to dig this tunnel and coincidentally found another place containing Origin Divine Earth! In order to prevent the news of discovering the Origin Divine Earth from leaking out, Andre killed all those who had followed him. He then used everyone’s weapons to carve a pathway. After successfully climbing up to the ninth floor of Hell’s Rose, he also learned that the Origin Divine Earth was directly below Devil Flame City, so he thought of a way to become the City Lord of Devil Flame City. From then on, he used the Origin Divine Earth to contribute continuously to Gajero and finally became one of the twelve apostles!”

Dave was shocked after hearing that. He quickly said, “Then doesn’t that mean that he can directly return to Devil Flame City through this tunnel?”

Vincent said with a solemn face, “That’s right! “So, we can only hope that Andre is still hiding here to extract the Origin Divine Earth. That way, we can still stop him. But if he has already returned to Devil Flame City, we will have to fight with the entire city’s soldiers!”

After listening to what Vincent had said, Dave immediately walked in front of Vincent. He looked at the dark space in front of him and said anxiously, “Can you create a little light for us?”

Vincent nodded slightly and opened the space door. He raised his hand and threw out a flame, lighting up the entire dark tunnel.

Although the darkness under Hell’s Rose could devour all sources of light, Vincent’s continuous output of flames could still provide light to Dave. Vincent’s flames were beyond the tunnel’s absorption limit.

After gaining sight, Dave glanced at the white bones under his feet and quickly walked forward.

The group followed Dave through the tunnel for a while and soon arrived at a hole that was neither too big nor too small. There were more white bones lying there, and there were traces of an array set up on the ground.

Horace immediately squatted down to check. He then raised his head and said to Vincent, “The traces here were left behind many years ago, however, two arrays have been set up here recently!”

Vincent and Dave looked at each other and said in unison, “He has succeeded!”

Dave quickly said to everyone, “We can’t waste any more time. Let’s go back to the top. Catherine and Monica are still in Devil Flame City. They can’t resist Andre by themselves!”

Vincent nodded and said, “Everyone, follow the previous team and rush back to Devil Flame city immediately. Once you see Andre, start the war!”

Everyone replied in unison, “Yes!”

Dave was naturally the most anxious one to open the space door. Horace, who was worried about the elves, immediately brought Harson and followed Dave into the space tunnel.

After that, Ebenezer left with Daniel. Only Vincent, Avril, and Angelina were left in the tunnel.

Avril suddenly grabbed Vincent’s arm and said softly, “Vincent, I…”

Vincent turned to look at Avril and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Avril said hesitantly, “I feel like there is a power down there that can allow me to breakthrough!”

Vincent was startled and said in surprise, “You mean there is a power down there that can allow you to break through the god of war body? There is actually an ancient battlefield down there?”

Avril nodded.

Vincent could not help but frown. He thought that the area below Hell’s Rose was just a place where the crystal spear was buried. However, he did not expect the space to actually be an ancient battlefield!

“I know that there’s going to be a big battle up there, but I want to go down and take a look first to find a chance to breakthrough. After all, it’s very difficult for me to play a role in a direct battle right now!” said Avril awkwardly.

She knew that Vincent needed help, but she was unable to provide Vincent with strong help. Therefore, she wanted to jump at the opportunity to improve her own strength.

Vincent nodded and said, “You don’t have to worry about what’s going on up there. The bottom of the tunnel is actually the underground river where the Origin Divine Earth is located. The crystal spear in your hand was also found there. Later, you can use space jump to reach the bottom quickly!”

“Yes! I’ll come back as soon as possible!” replied Avril seriously.

She then said goodbye to Angelina. She opened up the space tunnel and disappeared alone.

Angelina turned to look at Vincent and said softly, “Let’s go up as well!”

Vincent nodded gently and led Angelina to begin the space jump.

At that moment, Devil Flame City was in complete chaos. This was because the City Lord, Andre, who had announced that he was going into seclusion, had suddenly appeared. He was in a very sorry state. Not only were his clothes tattered, but his body was also covered in mud as if he had crawled out of a cemetery.

The first thing Andre did when he returned to Devil Flame City was to order the arrest of Dave and Vincent.

However, Andre’s subordinates’ reports surprised him greatly. This was because the report stated that Dave and Vincent had never left Devil Flame City. Instead, they had been in charge of military and government affairs. They currently control more than half of Devil Flame City!

Andre said to his subordinates in a deep voice, “The two of them must be fake! Capture them immediately! They will be my most important bargaining chips!”

Following that, the three guards of the east, west, and south gates of Devil Flame City led their troops to gather in front of the City Lord’s mansion. They were prepared to capture His Highness Dave under Andre’s command.

However, someone quickly came to report that His Highness Dave had already left the City Lord’s mansion. He headed toward the North City Gate as soon as he heard that City Lord Andre had come out of seclusion.

After Andre received the news, he immediately ordered all the soldiers to head toward the North City Gate to capture individuals. Anyone who resisted would be killed without mercy!

However, what Andre did not expect was that the current north gate soldiers’ combat strength was no longer the same as before. They were equipped with knives and were willing to die for Vincent. They successfully defended the north gate and blocked the attacks of all the soldiers in the city.

On the north gate, Catherine, who was still maintaining her disguise, looked at the soldiers fighting below quietly. Her face was indescribably calm and determined.

Monica, who was disguised as Vincent, said with a worried face, “Andre is back, but His Highness Dave and Vincent are not back yet. Do you think they will be back in time?”

Catherine said with a firm face, “Of course, they will definitely come back. If Andre killed Dave and Vincent, he should have attacked and killed us personally instead of hiding in the dark and ordering the soldiers to attack us!”

Monica nodded repeatedly and comforted herself, “Yes, yes, Vincent will be fine! He will definitely be able to rush back to save us!”

Catherine shook her head and said, “No! Don’t forget that you are Vincent now, and I am Dave! Since they handed over Devil Flame City to us, then we should save ourselves! Otherwise, how can we live up to their trust?”

Monica asked curiously, “Save ourselves? How?”

Catherine strode up the city wall and stood in front of all the soldiers in a calm manner. She shouted in a deep voice, “Everyone, stop! You are all soldiers of Devil Flame City. Do you know who you should be loyal to?”

The Dark Elves who were attacking initially did not want to pay attention to Catherine’s words. However, after hearing Catherine’s order, the soldiers at the north gate immediately contracted their formation and retreated under the city wall, stopping the war.

After seeing that their opponents had given up on fighting, the soldiers did not know what to do. They quickly turned around to look for their own generals. However, they discovered that the three guards at the east, west, and south gates had all disappeared. For a moment, they did not know who to listen to.

After seeing that the war had stopped, Catherine asked again in a deep voice, “Tell me, who should you be loyal to?”

A soldier shouted and answered, “Of course we should be loyal to the City Lord!”

Catherine scolded sternly, “Wrong! You are Dark Elves warriors, you should be loyal to the interests of the Elf Race, and not raise a butcher’s knife at your own compatriots for the order of a foreign race!”

After hearing that, the soldier still said righteously, “But we believe in Gajero! Although the City Lord has become a demon, it can only mean that he is one step closer to god. Shouldn’t we listen to the orders of the city Lord?”

Catherine’s lips curled into a sneer. She said, “The Elf Race only needs to give up their strongest belief for a god. Since when do they need to give up the lives of their compatriots for a god? If Gajero actually allows the Elf Race to kill each other, then why should we continue to believe in him?”

After hearing that, the soldier at the city gate could not help but be speechless. However, he still said, “Then even if we shouldn’t listen to the City Lord’s arrangements, we are still direct subordinates. The guards at the city gates are all Dark Elves. We will listen to our general’s orders. Is there a problem?”

“Okay!”

Catherine suddenly smiled and said loudly, “It’s rare for you to have such thoughts. Then you should listen to the orders of the three generals!”

“The soldiers of the east gate, please listen to the orders!”

“The soldiers of the west gate, please listen to the orders!”

“The soldiers of the south gate, please listen to the orders!”

At that moment, three extremely majestic voices sounded from the other end of the street. All the soldiers turned their heads to look behind them when they heard that. They saw the three generals walking side by side along the street.

All the soldiers seemed to have found their backbone as they replied in unison, “Here!”

“Turn your spearheads and guard the North City Gate. Ensure the safety of His Highness, Dave. No one can harm the leader of the Dark Elves from our hands today unless they step over our corpses!” shouted the three generals in unison.

They walked past all the soldiers at the same time and stood in front of the North City Gate as an example.

All the soldiers were stunned when they saw this. They could not understand why this was happening. The three generals had always been the City Lord’s most trusted aides. Why would they take the lead in disobeying the City Lord’s orders on this particular day?

However, before they could figure it out, some of the soldiers had already chosen to follow their generals to the North City Gate and take a defensive stance. After that, more and more soldiers begin to gather at the North City Gate.

Just as Catherine had said, they were all Dark Elf warriors. They should follow the Dark Elf’s orders!

At that moment, Andre’s figure suddenly appeared in mid-air. He floated toward Catherine and shouted in a deep voice, “Hmph! I didn’t expect Dave to find such an outstanding substitute. In just a few days, he had incited the three generals who were under my command! However, even if all of you stand together, you must all die! No one can save you!”
