Chapter 452 Death Tide (I)
The Atrox female was by no means weak, and she had seen a lot of death in her life, but such a gory scene and the wave of shock and surprise was too much. In the end, her mental defenses collapsed, and the Scarlet King managed to put her under hypnosis. It was feeble and would break at any second, but it would suffice.
The Scarlet King's Ego Wave grew extremely fatigued due to the mental effort. Still, he achieved his goal and began interrogating the woman, asking all sorts of questions about Death Ocean.
"CRACK!"
It took nearly half an hour to obtain all the information he wanted. After that, he broke the woman's neck, killing her before taking her space ring and sending her corpse into the [Demonic Devourer Dimension].
His Ego Wave spread across the underground city, inspecting everybody's space rings and then sending all the corpses and broken armor into the [Demonic Devourer Dimension].
As if nothing had happened, the Scarlet King entered the elevator and pushed the button to return to the surface. Just as the gates were closing, he gave one last look at the underground fort, and memories emerged in his mind.
The last time the Scarlet King was in an underground city, it took all his wits and effort to escape with his life, and there was only a Wave Champion in it. Now, he had the power to enter one full of Wave Champion and Wave King, leaving without a single wound on his body.
'How things have changed'
No one saw him arrive or leave, and those who gazed their eyes on him were dead.

A grand and luxurious ship was coursing through the Silent Forest on its way to Evernight. Although impressive in terms of speed, the vessel's main goal was its opulence, telling everybody just how wealthy its owner was.
"Hahahaha."
At the helm of the giant ship was an obscenely fat man. He wore dark armor that glowed with a violet light, and his hands held all sorts of delicacies and drinks.
"Who would have thought that some of the ancient clans of the capital would summon little old me? They must have recognized the genius of my management and want my advice." Find exclusive stories on My Virtual Library Empire
The Atrox continued laughing as he kept gloating, seemingly not noticing the looks of disdain and disgust from the rest of the people on the ship.
"Of course, Lord Unit. You have done a great job since your father fell sick from his war injuries. It is natural they want to know you better."
The one who played along with the fat Atrox was a beautiful young woman with a lovely smile. Although her behavior made it seem like she was infatuated with the man, anyone with a discerning gaze could see the hidden disgust in her eyes.
Unit turned to the young woman and showed a self-satisfied smile, not bothering to hide his lust in the slightest.
"Hahaha, you are right, Rallin. All my brothers look down on me, but they can do nothing since Father put me in charge of the city and gave me control of our forces."
As Unit looked around the ship, he saw how everybody smiled at him and began to applaud his words, making his expression even more unpleasant. Although the people present were annoyed by the man's behavior, there was little they could do since they had to respect the City Lord's desires.
Feeling even better as he saw how everybody kept placating him, Unit turned to the young woman.
"Rallin, how about if you dance for me? I am in the mood."@@novelbin@@
The young Atrox's smile nearly broke as she heard those words, but she did not dare to go against the man's words and nodded.
"RUMBLE!"
However, just as she was about to begin, a powerful red force field fell onto the ship, encompassing every corner of it and its people. All the Atroxs could not help but show fear and dread as they felt the overwhelming willpower in that red force field.
They raised their eyes to the sky with terror and saw a man with a red mask accompanied by a demonic draconic being.
Unit's face showed terror greater than any of the other Atroxs, and it seemed he would soil himself at any second as he could not stop his body from trembling.
"What do you think you are doing... I am Unit Karon, son of the City Lord of Karon City, an Apotheosis Realm Master!"
As one would expect from a nobleman without any prospect or future, Unit immediately used the threat of his father's power to face the person in the sky, but this one just kept looking at him before softly shaking his head.
"Do we really have to go through this charade, Dead Ocean's Leader, Death Tide?"
Rallin and the rest of the people on the ship did not understand what was happening or why that monster with the red mask called their useless Lord by the name of Death Tide. However, the cowardly Unit stopped trembling the next second, and his eyes went from terror to calm.
That was not the end of things as Unit's figure also began to change, as the fat covering his figure faded, leaving only a perfectly balanced body and handsome face. But the most shocking part came next as a burst of Essence Wave emerged from the man, rising beyond the level of a Wave King!
Unit's aura grew to the point that it was even mightier than the City Lord's, and a dark and ominous force covered his body, which seemed to extinguish the life of anything it got in touch with.
The Scarlet King stared at the man but was not surprised by the transformation.
Unit Karon was considered a spoiled son who got lucky enough to gain his father's favor and was given control of Karon City after the City Lord fell ill due to old wounds. What no one knew was that Unit was actually Death Tide, a powerful Apotheosis Realm Master, and it was he who weakened his father to obtain control of the city and expand his influence.
