Cursed Immortality-Chapter 925: Steer in the Wrong direction!

Back in the Myriad Galaxy City, the Legendary Lords of the city stood in front of a goblin who wore luxurious golden robes and stood between three-meter-tall giants clad in full body armor, and he appeared extremely tiny.

However, the expression of the Legendary Lords was paled with evident terror as they didn't dare to look at this goblin because this goblin was one of the King Alchemists of the Alchemy Guild, Talisman King, and his prestige was not any less than the Myriad Galaxy King if not higher.

As for why the prestigious Talisman King was here with his two Tier-1 Legendary King bodyguards, those Legendary Lords had pretty good guesses as their hearts were filled with despair.

The Talisman King looked at the Legendary Lords with a scornful glare as he berated, "You guys have some guts to conspire against an Alchemy King!"

The legendary lords' expressions turned ashen when they heard Talisman King's accusation.

"Your majesty, this has nothing to do with us! We are absolutely loyal to the Alchemy Guild and his majesty the Myriad Galaxy King!" Runic Lord quickly refuted as he bowed his head deeply, and the other lords quickly followed suit!

"I-indeed your majesty!"

"We can prove our loyalty with oath contracts!"

"This has nothing to do with us!"

Looking at the panicking alchemy lords, the Talisman King sneered, "I know it has nothing to do with you bunch. After all, you guys are too weak to do anything to Myriad Galaxy King. However, from what I've gathered, the Myriad Galaxy King hasn't shown himself for years now, and even after the calamity ended, he's nowhere to be seen.

"Yet, you lot seemed to have met him two times after the calamity because you all been using his name to manage his city. But the Myriad Galaxy Palace is completely empty, not to mention it's overturned by those dark bastards!

"However, you guys are completely unscratched, so I have a reason to believe that you all had made deals with those guys who wanted to harm an alchemy king and even helped them.

"I'm even thinking that it was one among you who leaked the news of the Myriad Galaxy King getting his hands on the Throne of Death to the enemy, and now the entire guild is facing pressure!" The more Talisman King spoke, the colder his tone became.

Although the legendary kings who secretly raided the Myriad Galaxy Palace were gone without a trace, it won't change the fact that the Myriad Galaxy King was now missing. Those legendary kings had overturned the palace.

Furthermore, instead of turning their focus on the Myriad Galaxy King, those legendary kings, especially the furious Spirit Poison King, are now threatening the Alchemy Guild to hand him over, or he'll start to laugh bioweapons on the Alchemy Guild-associated organizations, races, and territories.

If it were someone else, the alchemy guild wouldn't even pay them any heed, but this was the Spirit Poison King and many other furious Legendary Kings who were after the Throne of Death, so the alchemy guild was facing pressure from not only outside but from the inside as well.

After all, those legendary kings knew that if the Myriad Galaxy King fully refined the Throne of Death, it would be a second coming of the Necromancer King, so they took immediate action.

But the Alchemy Guild was in a similar situation as they had no idea where the Myriad Galaxy King had vanished. After investigating the Myriad Galaxy King, they found many disturbing things about what had happened during the calamity and what the Myriad Galaxy King had done.

His actions made them think that he had turned into a complete lunatic and didn't care about anyone else anymore. However, every alchemy guild member signed a Zodiac Oath Contract and Zodiac Soul Oath Contract upon getting a higher position to avoid harming the alchemy guild.

But the thing was, the Myriad Galaxy King wasn't directly harming the Alchemy Guild at all because he couldn't have been the one who leaked the news of getting an artifact like the Throne of Death. So, the scenario considers third-party involvement.

However, the alchemy guild had become the biggest target right now, so they had to find the Myriad Galaxy King as soon as possible or get something that would make the Life Faction take a united stance.

The only way to do it was to sell the Myriad Galaxy King out, promise the alliance, and bank the Throne of Death, but they first needed to prove that the Myriad Galaxy King had gone completely rogue and expel him from the guild.

However, expelling an Alchemy King wasn't easy without solid evidence or some traitorous act; this time, the Myriad Galaxy King wasn't at fault.

So, the only way to expel him was to gather evidence and prove him a traitor, which brought the Talisman King here.

These alchemy lords were registered as the Myriad Galaxy King's confidence and disciples, so if they stood against him, it would be easy to expel the Myriad Galaxy King.

So, Talisman King wasn't here to punish these small fries; instead, he was here to get them to cough out any dirty secrets of the Myriad Galaxy King and turn them into witnesses.

But he wouldn't tell them this outright, or they might not cooperate easily after realizing their importance. This was Talisman King's style of doing things.

However, Talisman King hadn't considered the possibility that the Myriad Galaxy King was already dead. He can't be blamed for this because if any alchemist between legendary ranks dies, whether an Alchemy Fable or Alchemy King, their 'Totem Life Seals' in the alchemy guild will be shattered, marking their death.

Totem Life Seals were a unique method that many powers used to keep track of their members' lives and deaths. By placing a sliver of soul in a Totem Life Seal, it'll directly connect to the soul totem of the owner, and this way, if the soul totem is shattered or the soul in it is wiped, the Totem Life Seal will also shatter.

Furthermore, to ensure that the Totem Life Seals can't be used for harm or to track down the owner, they were made so that if anyone other than the owner exposes them to soul force or magic energy other than their owners, they will instantly shatter.

Anyway, powerful organizations have their legendary members create a Totem Life Seal and keep them in a hidden location so if they die an uncanny death, they'll instantly know.

In the Myriad Galaxy King case, since Jacob only wiped out his consciousness, not his entire soul, because Autarch needed it to evolve, the Myriad Galaxy King's Totem Life Seal was still intact.

This made the Alchemy King Council still believe that he was alive and hiding with the throne of death.

As these Legendary Lords, they were under the impression that the Totem Life Seal of the Myriad Galaxy King was shattered long ago because he himself told them in the past under the pretext that when someone becomes a legendary king, their soul totem will become extremely powerful and Totem Life Seal isn't powerful enough to keep even a sliver of it.

If they hadn't had such a mindset, they wouldn't have agreed to Jacob's conditions even if they wanted to. But this one insignificant thing had now caused a huge misunderstanding.

As for the legendary lords, they wouldn't tell about Jacob killing the Myriad Galaxy King because they'll be the first ones to suffer the brunt. Furthermore, according to the soul contract they signed with Jacob, they can't reveal his involvement even if they wanted to.

So, now that they heard the Talisman King's words, they instantly realized that the Alchemy Guild had no idea the Alchemy King was dead, which made them stare at each other as a peculiar glint flashed past their eyes.

Talisman King didn't pay them any heed since he still thought that everything was under his control. Now that he had threatened them enough, he didn't waste any time and coldly said, "Now, if you want to get out of their situation, I'll advise you all to cooperate and tell me everything that the Myriad Galaxy King was involved in.

"If I'm satisfied, I promise to unite you with all your loved ones and return your wealth by finding the location of the Eamon Elemental Galaxy since there is a huge chance he's probably hiding there!"
