Chapter 206: Grand Elder

Based on the memories of the Black-robed Strategist Adavis, Hu Feng quickly arrived at the main base of the Naga Clan via a Teleportation Scroll.

Contrary to previous expectations, the main base of the Naga Clan was not built at the bottom of a deep sea, but on a sunny island. Here, far from the land and far from other power ful Sea Tribes, it was a paradise for the Naga. The island was lush with greenery, filled with evergreen banana trees everywhere. In the center of the island was the heavily guarded castle of the Naga Clan—the Naga Temple.

Hu Feng, who had transformed into Adavis, wore a black robe. Along the way, he did not arouse anyone’s suspicion and went straight to the Naga Temple. It was only when he got close to the gate that he was stopped by several Naga guards.

“Adavis, didn’t you follow the Iron Arm Legion on an expedition? Why did you come back so soon?” A guard who looked like a Commander walked over while speaking, looking at Hu Feng with doubt. According to Adavis’s memory, this was the guard Commander responsible for the outer security of the Naga Temple; his strength was not very strong, only at the Saint Domain Peak, but he was cautious by nature.

Hu Feng looked gloomy and pretended to be heavy-hearted, “Lord Rick, the Iron Arm Legion has been wiped out. I need to see the Elder Executives immediately!”

“What?”

Hearing him say this, all the Naga guards present screamed in surprise and quickly realized how serious the matter was. Without thinking, they quickly took Hu Feng straight to the Central Great Hall, rang the bell, and urgently summoned the Elder Executives. Soon, the other seven Elder Executives gathered in the hall, and every one of them had cultivated to the Demi-god Peak. Especially the Grand Elder at the head, he actually had twelve arms, his beard was white, and the fluctuation of power in his body was something even Hu Feng could not see through.

Twelve-armed Naga Elder!

The Grand Elder at the head made Hu Feng, who had entered the tiger’s den, feel real danger!

“Adavis, are you saying that the Iron Arm Elder was killed by that Great Demon Head? The massive Iron Arm Legion, all dead too?”

An Elder Executive spoke while looking sternly at Hu Feng, his Killing Intent awe-inspiring. Different from ordinary Naga Warriors, his body was withered and thin, and he held no swords in his hands but four ancient leather drums. If one looked closely, a faint sound of drums seemed to come vaguely, making people dizzy. Obviously, he was a Demi-god Stronger who was good at Soul attacks.

A whole two hundred thousand troops!

Even though the Naga Clan was numerous and powerful, they could not withstand such a heavy loss. Hearing the news Hu Feng brought back, every Elder Executive could not help but look gloomy.

“That’s right, the Iron Arm Elder is dead. He was severely injured by a single sword strike from that terrible Great Demon Head, and then swallowed up using the Great Devour Technique. We simply didn’t have time to rescue him!” Hu Feng’s eyes were red as he pretended to be angry and sad, then continued: “Under the temptation of the Great Demon Head, the Iron Arm Legion accidentally fell into the terrible Crystal Illusion Formation, and not a single warrior escaped.”

“Do you mean to let us send more soldiers to attack Crystal City, preferably all the legions together, so that they can all be buried there?” The Elder Executive holding the four leather drums gave a cold smile, then continued, “In the two tragic battles before and after, you were the only one to escape. Adavis, don’t you think that’s very strange?”

As the Elder best at Soul attacks in the Naga Clan, Gathol had sharp senses.

Hu Feng disguised as Adavis, whether in voice or appearance, seemed no different. But for some reason, he always felt vaguely that this strategist beside the former queen was a bit wrong, but exactly where it was wrong, he couldn’t say for a moment.

“Elder Gathol, yes, I deserve to die. Both times I failed to fulfill the responsibility of a strategist and failed to stop General Shaun and the Iron Arm Elder.”

Hu Feng looked gloomy, glanced at the many Elder Executives, and took out the remaining Teleportation Scrolls. He tore open his shirt, revealing the knife wound on his chest that had not yet scabbed, “Originally, being trapped in the Crystal Illusion Formation again, I had no face to live on. I personally held the dagger and stabbed myself here. But, just as the sharp dagger was about to pierce my heart, I suddenly felt that I couldn’t just commit suicide so cowardly. Even if I die, I must come back to report the situation first. That Great Demon Head in Crystal City is too powerful. Our Naga Warriors cannot rush up to die in vain anymore. Elder Gathol, I have said what I wanted to say. If you think my sins are grave, then kill me!”

Hu Feng advanced by retreating. After speaking, he simply closed his eyes, let go of his defenses, and quietly waited for the Elders’ punishment. Looking at the scar on his chest that was obviously just left by a dagger, the Elder Executives who originally had a trace of suspicion all nodded involuntarily.

“Gathol, Adavis is also for the benefit of the Naga Clan. He managed to rush back to report, which is already a great achievement!”

The silent Twelve-armed Grand Elder spoke and signaled a guard to step forward to help Hu Feng bandage his wound. He paused, then continued: “Adavis, as the strategist best at strategy beside Her Majesty the Queen, what do you think we should do now? How can we rescue Her Majesty the Queen and save the many besieged Naga Warriors?”

“Give up!”

Hu Feng opened his eyes, paused, and then continued: “Grand Elder, we can only temporarily give up all actions against Crystal City and immediately select a new queen!”

“What?”

Hearing Hu Feng say this, the Elder Executives were shocked again. Only the high and mighty Twelve-armed Grand Elder remained expressionless, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

“Adavis, you are simply presumptuous. Do you think I really dare not kill you?”

The withered Elder Gathol stood up as he spoke and gently shook the leather drums in his hand. In an instant, Hu Feng felt an invisible Soul attack penetrating his body. He adapted to the situation, pretended to be dizzy and staggering, almost falling to the ground.

“Gathol, sit down and let Adavis continue!”

Just as Hu Feng was about to fall, a gentle force penetrated his body. The expressionless Grand Elder quickly took action to stop the angry Gathol.

“Thank you, Grand Elder!”

Hu Feng bowed respectfully and continued: “Killing the Iron Arm Elder with one sword shows how terrible the strength of that Great Demon Head is. However, no matter how powerful he is, he is only one person. He can only guard Crystal City and cannot attack our Naga Temple. In other words, the real initiative is actually in our hands. There is no need for us to impulsively fight him to the death immediately. The best way is to secretly assemble elites and spread rumors to let the powerful Sea Python Tribe fight Crystal City and suffer mutual destruction!”

Hearing Hu Feng say this, the expressionless Grand Elder’s eyes lit up, “Oh, spread what rumors, and how to make the Sea Python Tribe attack Crystal City? Also, who exactly is that evil and powerful Great Demon Head?”

“Grand Elder, I am sorry, I am not clear who that evil Great Demon Head is. But, I am sure that he definitely carries the treasure from the legends of the Mermaid Clan, the Crystal World. Because of this, he suddenly appeared in Crystal City, and because of this, he could suddenly activate the legendary Crystal Illusion Formation and trap our two hundred thousand elites. We just need to spread this news, saying that the Mermaid Clan finally found the peerless treasure Crystal World and intends to control the ocean again and become the Overlord in the sea. Hearing such news, with the ambition and powerful strength of the Sea Python Tribe, they definitely will not be able to resist taking action. At that time, if we ambush a large number of elites near Crystal City, we can catch them all in one net!”

Using the identity of Adavis, Hu Feng set a bigger trap!

This time, the target was no longer just the Naga Clan, but also involved the Sea Python Tribe, another Overlord in the ocean. Once successfully completed, it could severely damage the strength of these two Overlords at the same time, paving the way for the Mermaid Clan to become the unique Overlord again. According to Adavis’s memory, the Sea Python Tribe was ferocious and greedy by nature. Learning the whereabouts of the peerless treasure Crystal World, they would never let it go easily.

“Good!”

“Yes, let the ferocious Sea Python Tribe fight Crystal City to the death first, and we will take action at the last moment!”

…

As soon as Hu Feng finished speaking, the Elder Executives clapped their hands and applauded, quickly agreeing.

The powerful Sea Python Tribe had always been the sworn enemy of the Naga Clan. The two sides had fought an unknown number of great battles, evenly matched. If they could let them fight the tenacious Crystal City and suffer mutual destruction, it would be great! Listening to Hu Feng’s insights and strategies, at this moment, no one had any doubts about him anymore, and even the withered Elder Gathol had to put down his previous prejudice against him.

“Good, very good, excellent!”

Just as the other Elders were clapping and applauding, the high and mighty Twelve-armed Grand Elder changed his tone and looked coldly at Hu Feng, “Adavis, no, I should say, Lord Hu Feng. As a holy Judgement Divine Official, you dared to enter our Naga Temple alone. It is truly admirable. You provided such a good suggestion, how should I thank you? Without you, this Great Demon Head, I think Crystal City will become an alluring bait, and I won’t worry about those stupid Sea Pythons not taking the bait, letting our Naga Clan become the true Overlord!”

The Grand Elder straightened his waist as he spoke, and a majestic pressure rose into the sky. The entire Naga Temple buzzed along with it, and mysterious Runes appeared one after another. An invisible force then sealed the entire island, cutting off all perception from the outside world.

“Grand Elder, I don’t understand what you are saying. I think, is this some misunderstanding?”

Sensing the changes in the world, Hu Feng was shocked in his heart, but on the surface, he forced himself to be calm, and his expression did not change from beginning to end.

The Naga Clan’s Guard Legion and Iron Arm Legion were all trapped by the Crystal Illusion Formation and could not communicate with the outside world. For a moment, he really couldn’t understand how the high and mighty Grand Elder saw through his disguise, and how he knew his name and true identity?

“Could it be that traitor Agutaili?”

Hu Feng’s thoughts flashed like lightning, and he thought of Agutaili who had left Crystal City before, and suddenly his heart moved.

“Hehe, a misunderstanding?”

The white-bearded Grand Elder, who had experienced unknown storms, smiled coldly and gently clapped his palms. From behind the screen, a tall figure walked out, a figure Hu Feng could never have dreamed of.
