Chapter 901 News About Survivors



William started to relay his orders to the newly joined masters. The latter never expected this world's situation to be similar to how their world was, or even much worse than that!

William gave them orders to search the entire capital for survivors or evidence about what caused such a disaster here. It was clear a monster tide attacked this place, but it didn't make sense as this was the capital.

The monsters William inspected before were all at gold and early-stage dark gold grade. They weren't this formidable or scary. Even if they came in such a grand number, it wasn't enough to take the capital down.

Not to mention the signs of destruction here weren't allying with this scenario. Monsters were brutal, but they couldn't destroy buildings and demolish walls. It wasn't just small areas destroyed, but the entire capital was gone!

William didn't know anything yet, but he was sure this was all the work of humans, not monsters. So he waited while his new followers scattered around, and inspected the capital and the areas close to it.

During this time, he remained next to Sloth, standing all in silence while letting the old man deal with his grievances. Karoline only remained behind, while others went to do the task of reconnaissance.

"I can't believe they are all gone! Everything is gone! My kingdom... My king... And even... Even Anjie is gone..." The voice of Sloth came so weak, choked with the tears that he didn't release.

William listened, didn't say a single word back, letting the man vent what burdened his chest and spirit. He knew such a blow was severe, but he wasn't shaken even in the slightest by it.

The quake he suffered from watching the entire world fall and burn was enough to steel his heart and make him immune to reacting fiercely to such disasters.

Humans were always seen as strong, but in such times, one had to admit humans were weak and vulnerable.

Karoline wasn't like William, she got affected by what Sloth was experiencing. Even if she was one day a monster, one which led swarms of monsters and demolished cities and towns, she still felt shaken from deep within by the heavy sadness of Sloth.

Even William's friends were feeling the same sadness for losing such a formidable fortress of humans.

[Attention boss, there is something on the north side of this place!] Just after a few hours, finally, someone spoke back to William.

He was Lang, and William kept holding the Bullets of his friends to receive any message or news at once. But so far, he hasn't heard anything from anyone but Lang.

"Tell me everything," William's voice was low, but it was enough to jolt the devastated old man sitting a few metres away!

"What happened? Did you find any survivors?" like a drowned person who found a straw, Sloth jumped and caught William by both arms. In the middle of the surge of his emotions, he was this close to harming William.

"Easy there old man, let me hear the news first and I promise I'll tell you," William struggled to free himself from the lock of Sloth. And the latter retreated for a few steps, realising how badly he behaved towards William.I think you should take a look at

William didn't say anything for a few minutes and heard what Lang said in focus and attention. According to the latter, one of the scout teams heard faint noises coming from a single direction. But they said the noises were so low to tell them anything about what was going on or how far this ongoing battle was.

"Gather up everyone in the southeast direction," William instantly held the Bullets firmly as he added, "The kingdom may need our help."

"Just point in the direction and I'll go there myself!" Sloth jumped again, but this time he kept his arms beside his body. He was trembling, out of fear, anxiety, and excitement.

"I can't guarantee they are anyone you knew," William paused, making sure Sloth got what this entire situation was.

It might be anything, starting from a useless clash between monsters, ending up to be a group of nameless survivors fighting against the monsters and dark masters.

William was sure humans were behind the destruction of the capital. And only dark masters would be the ones doing such hideous things.

"I don't care, I will go there and inspect things myself," Sloth seemed as if he didn't hear any of what William said, "just point the way, and follow me with everyone!"

"This way," William pointed towards a direction. And before he'd continued his words, Sloth flashed, vanished from his sight, "Don't forget to share news of what you found using that scroll... Damn! He is quite impatient!"

William didn't know if he heard him or not, but he shouted when Sloth vanished. He hoped Sloth was still keeping a bit of his sanity, and activated his spirit sense.

"You can't blame him," Karoline was deeply touched by Sloth and his loss.

"I know," William bitterly sighed, "this is how our world looks like. What do you think? Are humans as strong and blessed as monsters think?"

"I..." This question hit Karoline right at the heart. She couldn't say anything, stuttering before William waved his hand, "Don't bother, I was just thinking about my issues."

He knew making her think about this was going to end up with bad results. She looked at him, and he kept his thoughts to himself. The two moved to the point of meeting, and slowly the entire army of masters gathered in less than one hour.

"Let's go," William was excited to go and check what was going out there, "we may expect a tough battle or nothing. So it's better to keep your vigilance and be ready to fight at any moment."

William didn't hear yet from Sloth, and that meant either he went into a spree of killing and forgot about informing him of what he found, or he didn't arrive there yet.
