Chapter 233 The Fall of the Seven Evils

The Phoenix Vanguard Loyalty Hall was located on Hydra Island in the Yaspian Ocean.

Drogo, the newly appointed Dragon Leader, sat at the center of the hall with a gaze as sharp as a blade.

Gathered around him were key figures from around the world, each representing a branch of the organization.

An intense silence filled the Loyalty Hall as they waited, every eye fixed, expecting news that would change their course.

At precisely 3:40 a.m., Walter sent them a message from Harmonfield in Draconia, bearing grim news. 'The Seven Evils has fallen. In two days, Divine Drakebane will arrive at the Phoenix Vanguard.' Drogo's lips twisted upon reading the words.

For a moment, he sat still, then lifted his head to meet the gaze of the expectant crowd as he relayed the message.

A ripple of shock passed through the room.

"Divine Drakebane hasn't lost his edge! Even after years of seclusion and training, the Seven Evils couldn't defeat him." One of them sighed.

"The Seven Evils was our best, the pride of the Phoenix Vanguard," another added. "Yet even they couldn't bring down Divine Drakebane. I'm afraid Phoenix Vanguard is in danger this time!" "The Seven Evils was personally trained by the Vice Dragon Leader. They have been a secret weapon, a trump card hidden all these years, waiting for the right time to strike back."

"They allied with the Four Heavenly Kings of Brookhaven's Martial Alliance and two generations of Southfist King, yet none of them could touch Divine Drakebane. What's our next move?" "This time, if we want to beg for mercy again, I'm afraid that person won't agree anymore!"

One man whispered with grim resignation, "If we fail to take down Divine Drakebane in these two days, we're staring down another massacre like the one three years ago."

The room buzzed with heated murmurs as everyone weighed their options and calculated their survival.

Memories of that bloodbath flashed in their minds, along with Divine Drakebane's infamous promise: "Those who betray will never be forgiven."

There was no retreat this time. They had followed Drogo in the plot to dethrone Cassian and Mavis, imprisoning their leaders to end Divine Drakebane once and for all.

Now, the Phoenix Vanguard was trapped with him, facing the wrath they had invited.

The Phoenix Vanguard's headquarters were located on a magnificent little island, which boasted the world's most formidable defense system and the most powerful top-tier guards. The defenses seemed as fragile as paper shields. However, against the sheer terror of Divine Drakebane, Phoenix Vanguard's defenses are simply insufficient to stop him.

Drogo watched the unease building in the room. His face turned stern. "So, have you already been scared after the Seven Evils' were killed? What future does Phoenix Vanguard have with this kind of weakness?" A heavy silence followed.

Then, a short, dark-faced man with an odd, scowling expression finally exploded, "Drogo, I told you before, Divine Drakebane isn't someone we can take down!"

"You have provoked him at the instigation of the Dark Night Alliance, and now you've brought disaster down on the entire Phoenix Vanguard!"

"Huh, Austin is right, Drogo! You're playing games with the future of the Phoenix Vanguard!" rumbled a towering man over two meters tall, his muscles taut as if they could burst with the smallest flex. Drogo let out a low mocking laugh. "Cowards!"

After the word left his lips, a shadow flickered past, and in the next instant, the short man and the giant man dissolved into a mist of blood.

The heavy air of the Loyalty Hall grew thick with the scent of blood.

There was only a dark red haze lingering where the men once stood.

Standing in the hall's center was a masked figure cloaked in black. He sneered, his voice icy. "The Dark Lord is the Supreme sent by God to save this world. This is the fate for anyone who dares defy him!"

Dark Messenger vanished with a wisp of black smoke,
