“Good, good!!”
Armstrong laughed heartily, extremely satisfied with Bronfield Archie’s loyalty.
“It’s here, the divinity crystal is here!”
Everyone’s gaze could not help but turn towards the golden beam of light that was shooting towards them from the sky.
Meanwhile, in the rebel army’s eastern mountain range…
An incomparably sharp cry suddenly rang out.
“Chirp!”
The cry appeared very abruptly.
So much so that no one could react in time.
However…
In the next moment…
They came face-to-face with a creature with a red lion’s body, a human face, human ears, and blue eyes. It had three rows of sharp teeth on its upper and lower jaw, and its tail was like a scorpion with fatally poisonous stingers.
It shot up into the sky from the forest on the mountain.
In an instant, it tore through thousands of miles in the sky and rushed in the direction of the golden light.
“Oh no, the rebel army has made a move.”
Bronfield Archie roared in anger as he transformed into a stream of light and leaped into the sky.
The Divinity Fragment was his rightful reward. How could he let others take it away?
“Roar!”
Bronfield Archie burst in anger.
A huge goat pet beast with lava on its body appeared beside Bronfield Archie.
With a flash, it instantly fused with Bronfield Archie!
Whoosh!
Bronfield Archie chanted a short incantation, and an instant later, he blurted out, ”
He blurted out,
“Flaming Purple Jade!”
Boom!!!
A huge and hot purple orb that was formed from magma turned into a ray of light and shot towards the pet beast that was attempting to steal his reward!
However…
The pet beast had no intention of dodging. Instead, it opened its mouth wide.
Gulp!!
The pet beast had swallowed the purple fireball into its stomach.
“How… How is this possible! ?”
Bronfield Archie’s eyes were filled with shock. He could not believe what he had just seen.
After all, that was his strongest attack after fusing with his pet!
It had been swallowed effortlessly by the pet in mid-air.
Before he could react, however, the pet beast returned the shot at him.
An even more terrifying purple fire ball flew towards him at lightning speeds.
“Not good!”
Bronfield Archie’s expression changed drastically. He subconsciously gathered all his strength and formed a flame shield in front of him.
However, much to Bronfield Archie’s dismay, the moment the purple orb made contact, his shield instantly shattered.
Bronfield Archie screamed as he plummeted to the ground.
Nevertheless, the lion-like beast did not even spare a second glance at Bronfield Archie. Instead, it swallowed the Elemental Divinity Fragment that was wrapped in the golden light in a single gulp.
“BURP!”
After burping comfortably, the it let out an insatiable cry before turning into a stream of light and disappearing.
Everyone in the Burbus Temple was petrified.
The divine crystal fragment that Bronfield Archie was reward was swallowed before he had even gotten a chance to touch it.
At the same time, the lion-like creature that suddenly appeared in midair had alarmed the entire Blue Planet.
“W-What the heck was that??”
“It devoured the Elemental Divinity Fragment like it was nothing!”
“Oh my God! Could it be another one of the rebel army’s secret weapons?”
“Judging from the aura it’s emitting, it should be at the Great Beast Tamer level at the very least!”
“What? The rebel army has gained yet another Great Beast Tamer Stage pet?”
Everyone who received this news was instantly shocked.
The thing they were most worried about had still happened.
All this while, the major factions had chosen not to exterminate the rebel army.
This was due to their evident lack of a Great Beast Tamer Stage beast.
Even though the 9 Great Elders had reached the Great Beast Tamer Stage a long time ago, none of their pet beasts had managed to reach the level due to the incompleteness of their myths.
Although they were able to put up a fight, there was still a considerable gap in performance between them and actual Great Beast Tamer Stage beasts.
However… With the appearance of the unknown Great Beast Tamer Stage beast from the rebel army’s territory, the world could not help but worry over what it had meant.
“Lord Bishop, Lord Alfred has sent a call request.”
The newly appointed Archbishop’s Guard appeared beside him and spoke in a low voice.
“Hmm? Alfred?”
The newly appointed Archbishop Frederick Bartley frowned.
“Put him through!”
“Yes, Archbishop!”
Soon, a virtual screen appeared in front of the archbishop of the temple.
Alfred’s figure appeared on the screen.
“Vice Bishop Alfred, I’m sure you’re not just making small talk by sending me a call request at this time!”
Archbishop Frederick Bartley said calmly.
“Of course not!”
Alfred shook his head with a smile. “Our time is limited, so I’ll make this short.”
After a slight pause, Alfred whispered, “I’m sorry.”.
“I believe that Archbishop Frederick Bartley has already sensed the aura of a Great Beast Tamer just now!”
“The rise of the rebel army is faster than we expected.”
“I have indeed sensed it.”
No expression could be seen on Archbishop Frederick Bartley’s face as he asked, “So, what do you intend to do?”
“To convene a Round Table Conference for the entire Blue Planet!”
“What? A Round Table Conference?”
Archbishop Frederick Bartley’s expression changed. “That is an agreement left behind by the gods. Only when the world is on the verge of annihilation can a conference be held.”
“Hehe, Archbishop Frederick Bartley, do you really want to wait until that point to host the conference?”
Vice Bishop Alfred responded.
“This…”
“Archbishop Frederick Bartley, I have already joined forces with the La Powo Palace, the Aramborg Religion, the Oguapu Palace, the Burbus Temple, and Dragon City. We are ready to attack the rebel army!”
“What? You are going to attack the rebel army?”
Although Frederick had already more or less figured out Alfred’s intentions, he was still rather surprised by the forces that he had already amassed.
