Every member of the Grayson family froze in utter shock as the defensive laser weapons guarding their main gate swiveled around and aimed straight at their own ranks.

“Boom!”

The moment Merrick uttered the word, the grand entrance of the Grayson family was blown apart completely.

“Black Rick is here! Run for your lives! This ruthless warlord has come to seize our wealth once again!”

Thick smoke slowly cleared away from the shattered gateway, revealing rows of towering beastmen fully equipped for battle.

They donned solemn metallic armor and wore strange griffin masks, leaving only cold, emotionless eyes exposed to the outside world.

Countless compact combat airships hovered in the sky above, nearly covering the entire airspace over the clan territory.

The leading male sat calmly on the command deck of the flagship.

Clad in full black griffin battle gear, he wore armor decorated with black-edged wing patterns that stretched from his chest all the way down to his waist and hips.

A heavy, fierce beastly aura radiated off his frame, so intimidating that no onlooker dared to hold their gaze for long.

Three other beastmen brimming with equally powerful presence stood close beside him, undoubtedly core members of Black Rick’s Sovereign Guard.

It was plain to see that Merrick had forged the soldiers of the 9th Legion into an exceptionally formidable force.

Even from a great distance, their overwhelming killing intent sent sharp chills creeping across everyone’s skin.

“The 9th Legion has shown up once more, yet none of the Grayson family’s guards step forward to confront them. What exactly is going on here?”

“Why have the troops of the 9th Legion returned to this region again?”

“No one can tell for sure. They came here before to seize resources and capture people, and nobody knows what they aim to take this time. Everyone ought to stay on high alert.”

The deafening explosion had spread far and wide, drawing the attention of nearly all major influential factions across Goldspine City.

Yet Merrick maintained an utterly indifferent expression, as if breaking down the clan’s main gate was nothing more than a trivial matter.

“Unlike the previous eight legion leaders who upheld proper manners and moral principles, Black Rick possesses an erratic and unpredictable temperament. No one can figure out his true intentions for showing up today.”

“He could wipe out the entire Grayson family without the slightest hesitation right now, and any of us could be his next target afterward.”

Such wary and fearful remarks circulated openly among the most powerful factions in the area. Common townsfolk, elderly folks, young children, laborers, and peddlers held entirely different views Many even strained their eyes eagerly, hoping to spot familiar faces among Merrick’s troops.

The vast majority of ordinary civilians firmly supported the 9th Legion.

Plenty of beastman soldiers serving in the legion originated from ordinary civilian backgrounds, and the legion’s core mission was to shield these vulnerable groups.

If the terrifying spread of the taint broke through the defenses of the Wasteland City, peace would vanish forever from all Elemental Cities.

Elite clans could easily board airships and flee straight to Capital Planet for shelter, but ordinary commoners had no choice but to perish alongside the Outer Planet.

Countless pairs of eyes remained fixed on every move happening within the Grayson family territory.

Seeing Leo fail to show up for a long while, sharp hostility flashed across Daniel Grayson’s face.

His father held absolute authority within the Grayson family at present. Even as the designated primary heir, he had no right to make crucial decisions on his own and had to wait for his father to take charge of the overall situation.

Still, he could not bring himself to stand idly by and do nothing.

“Activate our inter-city trade StarNet system immediately. Broadcast live footage across all five major cities to show how Black Rick is humiliating and oppressing our clan. I intend to turn all other influential forces against him by exposing his brutal deeds today.”

Daniel firmly believed Merrick would have to pay a heavy price for daring to treat the Grayson family in such a reckless manner.

Their clan had powerful backers among top-tier figures on Capital Planet. If Merrick dared to lay heavy hands on them, the entire 9th Legion would never manage to retreat safely in one piece.

“The live broadcast has officially started and spread to all designated regions, Daniel.”

“Why is Dad still refusing to come out?” Deep unease welled up inside Daniel. His father had grown increasingly temperamental and eccentric lately, yet he never made foolish mistakes when facing major

crises.

“He is still resting with a female companion and has not woken up yet.”

The clansman sent to summon him replied in an awkward tone.

Daniel’s face darkened instantly. “This is a critical moment! Send more people to rouse him at once. Warn him that if he delays any further, our entire clan residence will be completely destroyed.”

As the last wisps of smoke faded away, Merrick finally ran out of all patience.

He had already given the opposing side ample chances to negotiate. Since they showed zero/willingness to resolve matters peacefully, he decided to take full control of the situation his own way.

“Since no one is willing to step forward to talk terms, Number Three, calculate the total number of all members staying inside this territory. Execute every last one of them to settle all old scores with equal lives.”

The male’s deep, low voice carried a biting cold edge, cutting straight into the hearts of everyone who heard it.

With the whole scene being streamed live across five major cities, the 9th Legion had casually made a fina verdict that could wipe out an entire prominent clan.

Widespread shock erupted instantly.
