Titan King: Ascension of the Giant-Chapter 626: Our enemy has appeared

This was a city, a city hidden within Shadowcrag Forest, built from massive piled stones.

At first glance, it appeared somewhat majestic; upon a second look, it revealed more age and substance.

On the giant stones exposed on the city walls were mottled moss and bloodstains.

Against the backdrop of darkness, the city stood there, seeming somewhat unreal.

Drusilla was a succubus bloodline warrior, a member of the Sentinel Corps, and also an elder of the succubus tribe.

Drusilla possessed an excellent ability: concealment.

During this invasion, Drusilla, serving as a point soldier and one of the top scouts in the Sentinel Corps, had fallen into Shadowcrag Forest under the sonic attacks of the Dark Bat Hawks.

However, this didn't claim Drusilla's life; instead, it ignited her curiosity to explore this otherworld.

Therefore, Drusilla continued forward, moving further away from the direction of the main force.

After overcoming numerous obstacles and escaping the pursuit of dark creatures, Drusilla secretly trailed a Night Stalker and arrived here.

Drusilla had found a target, a target for plunder.

She had found a city, a city inhabited by countless dark creatures.

Judging by the appearance of those dark creatures, this was undoubtedly a city belonging to the Night Stalkers.

Drusilla hesitated; she wanted to infiltrate the city before her to gather more relevant intelligence.

But Drusilla was also afraid of alerting the enemy prematurely.

"I've left secret signs all along the way. If any clan members pass where I've been, they will surely find them."

"So, what I need to do now is wait, wait for more clan members to arrive."

Having made up her mind, Drusilla took one last look at the city before her, slowly melted into the darkness, and headed back the way she came, leaving more secret signs and letters.

Shadowcrag Forest. After surveying the terrain, Delilah returned to the center of the armies.

"Your Majesty, has our target appeared?"

The one asking was Knight Godfrey; he frequented the mysterious tavern and was very familiar with Delilah.

"No!"

Delilah shook her head. She had flown a wide circle and hadn't seen a single Dark Bat Hawk.

"According to our intelligence, Dark Bat Hawks are nocturnal creatures."

"It's daytime now, so not encountering them is quite normal."

Although Delilah said this, she knew very well that not finding the monsters in broad daylight with clear visibility was not a good sign.

Because it meant they were highly likely to be attacked the following night.

"The fire is still burning continuously. We've gained quite a bit along the way."

"If things continue like this, it would be pretty good."

Grum the dwarven warrior was very happy because, over the past few days, his stores had accumulated many forging materials.

Of course, he had also racked up a large number of orders.

"This little bit of gain isn't even enough to fill the gaps between our teeth."

"Our Stoneheart Horde consumed a lot of burning oils and fire stones; we haven't even earned back our initial investment."

Gormathar, standing behind Delilah, snorted coldly, extremely dissatisfied.

In Gormathar's view, the reason others were able to gain anything was entirely based on the sacrifices made by their Stoneheart Horde.

"In the past, dark beast tides would last three to four months. I reckon our current invasion of the Emerald Dream Realm should last about the same amount of time."

"Everyone, we still have time."

Seeing the atmosphere gradually stiffen, Saelen stepped forward to smooth things over, hazarding a guess about the potential duration of the otherworld invasion.

"Everyone, this is just the beginning. We've all sent out quite a few scouts; I believe there will be results soon."

Delilah didn't stop Gormathar's complaining; she also wanted everyone to see that the horde was making contributions.

Having contributed, they deserved returns, or at least the gratitude of the others.

Even if Gormathar hadn't spoken up, Delilah would have found an opportunity for one of Brontes or Steropes to stand up and grumble a bit.

Now that Gormathar had expressed dissatisfaction, it was Delilah's turn to comfort the crowd.

However, just then, a member of the Sentinel Corps suddenly came up, approached Delilah's side, and handed over a secret letter.

Delilah opened the secret letter in front of everyone, her eyes narrowing slightly, then gradually showing delight.

"Everyone, our enemy has appeared! Continue straight in this direction, and we will encounter a city."

Delilah didn't pass the secret letter around, and everyone sensibly refrained from crowding forward to look.

There were some rules, some boundaries, that everyone had to tacitly acknowledge and abide by.

Otherwise, the consequences would be severe.

"A city! There must be many dark creatures inside!"

"Now, those heavy weapons the dwarves brought can finally be put to use!"

Grum Ironfist the dwarf stroked his beard and laughed heartily. If they could successfully take the city ahead, the dwarven clan would surely get a good share of the spoils again.

"Pass this news down. Tell all bloodline warriors to be more alert."

"The closer we get to the city, the easier it is to be discovered."

"..."

The void passage: the conversation continued.

"Giant King Orion, I didn't sense that aura clearly just now. I want to see that scroll again."

This was the request of Lolth, Queen of the Blind Spiders, but Orion refused.

"There is only one chance!"

"You need to know, the reason you were noticed by a certain great existence wasn't because you are a Legendary level powerhouse, nor because your appearance is passable."

"It's because you are a broodmother, a Legendary level broodmother."

Affirming Lolth, acknowledging her value, was also one of Orion's reasons to persuade her.

Orion wanted Lolth to know she was valued because she had value.

This way, Lolth would follow this line of reasoning further.

Lolth would believe that as long as she consistently maintained her value, she wouldn't be abandoned, and her race would still have hope for survival.

Lolth fell silent!

She was indeed following Orion's previous words, thinking along those lines.

"By the way, I must remind you of one thing."

"This is the first time the Titanion Realm has initiated a cross-realm invasion. No one knows how long this void passage will last."

"The void passage might close tomorrow, or perhaps a month later, who knows?"

"Next year, when the void passage opens again, the one engaging me on the other side most likely won't be you."

Orion was cornering Lolth step by step; he wanted to force her into a dead end, making her throw herself into the embrace of their Champions Alliance out of helplessness and despair.

"Giant King Orion, you also cannot guarantee that the existence behind you can defeat the mighty beings of our Emerald Dream Realm, can you?"

"What if, in the war between the two realms, the Emerald Dream Realm wins?"

It had to be said, during evolution, Legendary level broodmothers really maxed out their wisdom stat.

Lolth grasped the key point, but what she didn't know was that Orion didn't necessarily represent the Titanion Realm, but rather the Valkorath Realm.
