Other than the King of Dead Onyx, who held absolute authority as the King of Death. Under his command were one Prime Minister of Dead, two Dead Ministers, and four Dead Dukes, followed by Dead Marquises, Dead Counts, Dead Viscounts, and Dead Barons. These were the highest ranks of dark beings, and they all controlled their own fief and races.
The Dark Beings followed a strict hierarchy, the high-evolution dark being had an absolute advantage over lower-evolution dark beings, and all those Dead Noble Titles were earned after going through countless bloody battles and getting Onyx recognition.
The Prime Minister of Dead, and two Dead Ministers lived in the Doom Palace in the Doom Capital, and only the King of Dead can command them.
But the four Dead Dukes handle the East, West, South, and North of the Dead Plains, and they only had one purpose, kill as many livings as possible and train powerful Dark Knights for the Doom Capital.
Because the Doom Capital wasn't a place for just anyone could live, it was filled with the strongest forces of the Kingdom of Doom, the Dead Legions of Dark Knights!
Thereby, according to their contribution, they will then be given corresponding rewards by the King of Dead. And those rewards were no joke at all. That's why the Dead Dukes do everything to wage wars and collect more life crystals.
In the western territory of Epic Dead Plains was located the Miasma Mountain Range, filled with dark miasma and the stench of death. This place was the dukedom of Venomous Zombie Dead Duke, one of the four Dead Dukes of the Kingdom of Doom!
All year long, this place teemed with all sorts of zombie soldiers, and this was no place for living being. Not even Epics can stay here for more than one day before getting effective by this cold, toxic environment, that is, under the condition that they weren't eaten by the zombies first.
However, even the Dead Duke wasn't aware of the massive bunker built right under its territory!
At this moment, within this mysterious bunker, two giants, a male, and a female, were sitting in front of a giant screen that showed a star server post.
"Star Server: Ancient Artifact Industry Auction Post NO.5 has been concluded, and You (Anonymous2: Star ID: Star-Chaser) has won the White Sun Missile!
"The deal has been finalized!
"Grace Period is being calculated
"Please select the location for your item delivery
"Open Star Server Inbox for inquiry"
The male giant or Star-Chaser smiled as he looked at the female giant with a meaningful expression and said, "See this? And you were telling me I was wasting my time."
"Hmph, who could've thought, this guy had Unique Grade Weapon under his sleeve? Anyone with a right mind would think he was just an ant who wanted to shake up a tree." The female giant scoffed.
"Just admit I was right, and you were wrong this time." Star-Chaser didn't let go of his victory.
"Unless I die."
"Hah, you stubborn woman!" The Star-Chaser laughed as he clearly enjoyed seeing the female giant's flustered expression.
"Enough of your childishness. Since you brought it with such a precious scripture, I can presume you want to blow up the Void Star Server of epic plains?" She questioned.
The Star-Chaser nodded without hesitation, "Indeed, this is our chance to get rid of that annoying AI, and this will buy us precious time to swallow the entire epic plains in one fell swoop. Who could've thought the problem would be solved like this? Although that scripture was one of a kind, it was still worth it!"
The female giant frowned, "True, it was unexpected indeed. But what are the odds of this happening? We are talking about the most powerful security system of epic plains. Besides, it's still not clear that this one weapon can even cut it. If we fail, you can forget about getting another chance. I don't want to spend another hundred years to discover the Void Star Server location again!"
The Star-Chaser sighed as he said with a determined look, "I know, but this is our only chance to get out of here and buy a better future for our children. The organization will not look away if we achieve the impossible. Even if we fail, it's not like we will be losing something. We can just have to win the Trial Plain, that's all."
The female giant fell into contemplated silence before she finally replied with a sigh, "You do have a point. I'm also tired of suppressing myself and hearing those arrogant bastards order. It's about time we get the treatment we deserve. And speaking of children, where are they?" Her eyes went deadly cold.
"Stop worrying about them. Give them space to grow. They are no longer kids. Let them experience the world a little and learn from that experience. You do know that if you keep this up, they will become even more rebellious and might not listen to you." The Star-Chaser smiled wryly.
With squinted eyes, she retorted, "They dare? If not for you stopping me, I wouldn't have let them sneak out at all. They are still naïve and might get hurt."
"That's why I'm saying they need experience, and besides, they are also my precious children as well. I won't let anything happen to them. Don't worry. Once they get tired of playing, they will come back to you." He gently smiled.
At this moment, his focus turned to the screen again, and he said, "So since we are giving him this precious boon, should we recruit him? We both have to admit, right now, he is a symbol of destruction with that technology under his belt. Who knows what he's hiding up his sleeve."
The female giant shook her head and disdainfully stated, "No, he's still not worthy. He has yet to understand the depth of those three hegemonies. Furthermore, he just foolishly revealed that he has a water magic core, the common element.
"So, I don't think he has the potential to go forward from the Epic Plains. He's just some lucky individual, but luck has its limit. Or do you think that Big Oaf didn't have a unique grade universal scripture for common elements like water up his sleeve?
"Besides, let him cause chaos in our stead. This will keep everyone's attention on him while we can move in shadows and achieve our goals. He's still nothing but an ant, unaware of the predators hiding. Just using him to our advantage is the greatest honor of his life!"
The Star-Chaser side-eye his stubborn partner and sighed before declaring, "You're still too arrogant. This kid gives me a very promising vibe. But I know you or those old stubborn men won't
listen to me despite me being your leader.
"Still, I'm going to befriend this kid whether you like it or not. And if he shows promise, I'll take him as a disciple, and you can't stop me either!"
