The Return of God of War Chapter 2151
Chapter 2151 The Identity Of The Creature
“Ah!”
Everyone was extremely strung up when an ear-splitting scream pierce the air.
Boom!
Blood splattered everywhere.
Some of them felt warm blood spraying onto their clothes.
The extremely gruesome sound shocked everyone.
Even Xenotoph was dumbfounded and rendered speechless.
“Ah!”
Before they could react, horrifying sounds echoed in the air as blood sprayed everywhere.
“Switch on the light!” Johannes barked.
Snap, snap!
They switched on their lights, and the interior of the factory appeared in their sight.
They didn’t miss any corner, so everything was visible, including the thing that escaped from the coffin.
Boom!
The sight of that sent a shiver down everyone’s spines.
What the hell?
A tall figure appeared in sight, growling lowly.
A pungent stench of blood filled the air.
Finally, everyone saw the horrible creature from the coffin.
It was a human being.
Scars marred his face in such grotesque patterns that he was beyond recognition. With his fur, he looked like a spine-chilling beast!
The blood trickling down his lips made everyone shudder in fear.
“Is he even human?”
Sweat dotted their brows.
The figure looked like a human being, but he fed on human blood like a monster.
They couldn’t help but wonder what kind of foreign presence this was.
Nevertheless, no matter what, this creature was a tremendous threat to them.
Xenotoph was afraid, let alone the others.
After all, the figure was practically Grim Reaper.
“Who the hell is this?” they demanded curiously.
Johannes scanned it carefully and said, “Is this the vampire race from Adrune? I remember it’s an ancient clan.”
“What? A vampire from Adrune?”
Everyone blanched in horror at the news.
The vampire race was an ancient and mysterious race which they had heard of but never seen in real life.
Is this a vampire?
Before they could process the idea, the strange creature started attacking them.
The numbers of those who had collapsed kept rising, for he would rip apart anyone who came before him and sucked their blood without hesitation.
He was so fast that they couldn’t even react in time.
If he hadn’t stopped to suck his victims’ blood before taking their lives, their losses would be more severe.
“Everyone, let’s kill him!” Xenotoph urged, and promptly took action.
The other elites joined him to attack the creature.
Boom, boom!
Alas, they soon realized no matter how powerful their attacks were, the creature wasn’t at all affected.
His body was unimaginably strong!
Xenotoph and the others couldn’t even lay a hand on him.
Uh-oh.
Everyone at the scene was stricken with horror.
He’s too powerful.
Johannes was pretty sure that this was a vampire by now.
The creature was abnormally strong and practically invincible.
Xenotoph and everyone else’s attacks successfully provoked the creature.
He let out an infuriated roar as a mighty sucking force burst out within his body.
Rip!
Cuts appeared out of nowhere on some of their bodies as the creature sucked their blood away without even laying a hand on them.
Shortly after, corpses drained of blood collapsed to the ground one by one.
Their blood all ended up in that creature’s belly.
Shocked by the sickening situation, everyone fell silent.
They were all martial artists and masters of magical techniques, but none of them could defeat the terrifying creature.
Men fell one after another, ending up as dried-up corpses.
By the time they realized something was wrong, it was too late.
It was impossible for them to escape the scene.
“I shall stop him. Everyone else, leave!” Xenotoph declared, risking his life for the sake of the rest.
Everyone else promptly made their escape, for they were no match for this vampire.
The Return of God of War Chapter 2152
Chapter 2152 Unheard Of
“Come on, brute!”
Xenotoph planned to put up a fight and take the creature down with him.
Boom, boom!
Xenotoph unleashed a barrage of his strongest magical attacks.
He was prepared to fight till his death.
A battle ensued.
Soon, blood stained the windows of the factory red.
Though Xenotoph tried hard to stop the creature, he failed and lost his life.
Johannes and the rest escaped the factory successfully, their faces pale and their bodies tensed.
What happened today was beyond everyone’s wildest imagination.
One of the men stationed outside urged, “What happened? How did it go?”
Before the people who had just escaped the factory could explain, Xenotoph’s disciples mourned, “Master!”
Xenotoph was dead, and that shocked the masses.
After all, Xenotoph was the most powerful fighter in all of Goldenport Island.
If he lost his life trying to defeat that creature, what about the rest?
“Uh…” The Protectors were at a loss for words.
“The fighters from The Cardinal Hall are on the way here, but time is ticking. Perhaps Goldenport Island will be destroyed before their arrival!”
The revelation only brought more despair.
“We only have ourselves to depend on.” Johannes ordered, “Set off the bomb to level the entire area!”
Before they came here, he had already asked his men to set up the triggering device.
They just had to detonate the bomb now.
Boom, boom!
As flames shot into the sky, the factory collapsed, razed to the ground.
The dust and smoke rose into the air in a fast, swirling motion.
The impact of the explosion caused the elites to stagger backward.
In fact, Goldenport Island was shaking violently as if an earthquake had just happened.
The explosion was too intense.
Johannes had bought the explosive from Cryptic Stream Corporation, which belonged to the Lab of Gods.
In other words, it was Johannes’ trump card.
Back when he bought it, Cryptic Stream Corporation informed him of how powerful it was.
He could blow the entire island up with the appropriate quantity.
It was indeed extremely frightening!
As the bomb was developed to destroy powerful beings and items, all martial artists and masters of magical techniques would definitely die in the explosion.
Nothing would survive in the explosion.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief and relaxed visibly.
The next second, something glinted among the thick smoke, causing everyone to tense up anxiously.
As the masses stared at the smog, it gradually cleared out.
A tall figure emerged from within. He let out a ferocious roar, his beast-like eyes glaring at Johannes and the others.
What? He’s perfectly fine? Did he escape unscathed from the huge explosion? What is he made of?
They had never even heard of the existence of someone like him!
“W-What is going on?”
Everyone was on the verge of tears, for it was a horrifying sight to behold.
Finally, the elites standing guard outside the factory got to see what the creature looked like.
They felt a chill go down their spines.
Boom!
Before they could react, the vampire disappeared in a flash.
He then reappeared among the masses and started his killing spree.
Pfft!
“Ah!”
Agonizing cries resonated across the zone; it was a bloodbath.
The killing machine struck fear in everyone’s heart.
What the hell is this? We can’t harm him, let alone defeat him! He doesn’t even feel pain.
Countless of lifeless bodies littered the ground.
Most of them ended up mummified as their blood was sucked out by the vampire.
“Time to leave. We can’t stop him!” someone suggested.
Johannes immediately responded, “No. If we leave, this creature will leave and harm the ordinary citizens! We need to stop that from happening!”
“Yes, he’s right!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 2153
Chapter 2153 Excalibur Council Of Rodunst
It was clear what this creature would do out there.
Hell would descend on a peaceful country.
After all, that was what happened to Rodunst.
The creature appeared in the capital and airport, bringing disaster to the country.
Indeed, Rodunst was now a living hell.
After the coffin was opened, the creatures escaped and murdered innocent lives.
It was catastrophic.
One vampire was annoying enough, but there were two of them in Rodunst.
Though Rodunst immediately dispatched various martial artists, men with superpowers, witches, wizards, and even its own Excalibur Council, which was comparable to Zarain’s Shield, each and every one of them who went there ended up dying on the battlefield.
No one could stop the vampires!
Nothing seemed to be able to stop them in their tracks.
The city was beyond saving, so Rodunst hurriedly ordered a complete news blackout to prevent the situation from blowing up.
They were still in the midst of finding out what those creatures were and where did they come from.
Meanwhile, on a cruise ship sailing on the ocean.
Back then, some survivors fled the island and boarded the cruise, but the creature managed to catch up to them.
Now, the cruise was floating on the sea toward an unknown destination.
Once it docked somewhere, it would be a disaster, especially if the dock was a busy one.
The Lab of Gods received news of the vampires almost immediately.
Though Rodunst swiftly ordered a news blackout, they still managed to find out what had happened.
Scias laughed. “Now that Excalibur Council has found out what the creature is, they might find another vampire to start a negotiation. Rodunst’s trouble will come to an end soon.”
His tone then took a turn. “But Erudia will need more time to deal with it.”
Jester King hesitated for a long time before asking, “Is this the end already?”
Scias shook his head. “Of course not. It’s not that simple. Let’s just wait and see! By the way, let’s see where the other one is. Oh, he’s going in the right direction—Archulea in Nuthana!” He chuckled in delight.
Jester King inquired, “Will the Kings take their revenge? After all, I got one coffin from them.”
It was Jester King who wiped the secret training base out and stole the coffin that belonged to the Kings.
All the while, the Kings had been experimenting on hibernating vampires in secret.
The Lab of Gods happened to find out about it and sent someone to take the coffin away.
“They might suspect us. But I have a plan, so don’t you worry,” Scias declared smugly.
As expected, Excalibur Council was busy finding a vampire to negotiate with the two vampires.
As the most influential organization in Rodunst, just like The Cardinal Hall, Excalibur Council held many secrets. For example, they held the vampires and other Ancient Clans’ members captive.
They had also carried out plenty of experiments.
Right now, they decided to release the vampire they held captive so he could negotiate with the other two and hopefully persuade them to stop.
The reason Excalibur Council could find out the origins of the creatures was that the creatures used to roam around in Rodunst in ancient times.
They recorded the existence of the creatures and captured some of them.
However, Erudia didn’t have any experience in handling vampires, so they were rendered helpless by the creature’s strength.
No one knew what was going on on Goldenport Island.
Only those who’ve seen it with their own eyes would have a clue.
This was the biggest predicament they had ever faced, for the vampire was incredibly strong.
Right now, he was killing the residents one by one.
In a blink of an eye, hundreds of them lost their lives.
The rest could only watch as despair surged within them.
The Return of God of War Chapter 2154
Chapter 2154 Fight Till The End
It was obvious that they would all be wiped out here.
No one would survive the ordeal.
It felt really miserable to be waiting for one’s death.
Help was arriving, but they were running out of time.
In the midst of battling the creature, they realized he was getting stronger after devouring enough blood.
It seemed like he could only awake after getting sufficient blood.
Though he wasn’t at the peak of his ability yet, he was already unstoppable.
They couldn’t imagine what it would be like if he were to awake completely.
Meanwhile, both Levi and Cyrus had just arrived at Goldenport Island.
As Erudia had kept a lid on the situation, they had no idea what was happening on the island.
Once they arrived, their instincts told them something was wrong.
“Something seems off. They must be in trouble!” Cyrus exclaimed.
Levi’s brows were furrowed up. “I can sense a terrifying presence. It resembles me when I unleash the Forbidden Annihilation.”
Indeed, Levi had sensed a sinister presence on the island.
As it bored a resemblance to him when he unleashed the Forbidden Annihilation, he immediately detected its presence.
“Yes, something must’ve happened. Let’s find out where they are!”
They dashed toward the source of the ominous vibe.
On the other side of Goldenport Island, the Eighteen Dark Angels of Sacred Organization showed up at the scene.
“You’re sure Levi is on Goldenport Island, right?” Death Fiend asked.
“Yes, we’ve confirmed that he has just arrived at Goldenport Island!”
“All right. Let’s go!”
Soon, the Eighteen Dark Angels realized the ominous air on Goldenport Island.
Oh? What an overwhelming presence.
“Come, let’s go take a look. It should be related to Levi!”
Meanwhile, the vampire was growing stronger nearby the factory.
Johannes gathered the fighters to retaliate while requesting for more help.
Alas, the only help he could get was no match for the vampire.
The reason they showed up was to stall for more time.
“We have news! The apprentices of the four divine generals from The Cardinal Hall had boarded an aircraft and will be here in an hour. We only need to hang on for one hour more!” the Protectors reported happily.
Despair flashed across everyone else’s faces when they learned that they had to wait for one hour before help arrived.
After all, the fighters, including Xenotoph himself, couldn’t even hold the creature back for ten minutes.
It was practically impossible for them to hang on for one whole hour.
“We need to hang on! Otherwise, the creature will take innocent lives and make Goldenport Island a living hell!” Johannes hollered.
He and his clan went all out to stop the creature from escaping.
It was an intense fight.
Though they knew death would await them, none of them backed off.
It would be worth it to lose their lives to protect their loved ones.
In just a few short minutes, all that was left of the brave bunch was a heap of mangled bodies.
Crimson blood tainted the ground beneath their feet, but none of them backed down.
“Hurry up and think of something, or we’re finished for real!”
“Yes, there are less than a hundred of us left! We’re doomed!”
The survivors looked as though they were about to burst into tears.
Johannes and the others were panicking, but there was nothing else they could do.
“Grandpa, if only I were stronger,” Sherrie uttered glumly. She had also joined the battle.
Everyone sighed gloomily as their numbers decreased.
Slowly, only ten fighters remained, including Sherrie and Johannes.
They collapsed onto the ground, waiting for the vampire to claim their lives.
The Return of God of War Chapter 2155
Chapter 2155 The Progenitor
They squeezed out every ounce of their strengths and fought till the end.
Alas, they only managed to hang on for around twenty minutes.
They still had a long way to go.
During the last moments of their lives, they were still worrying about the downfall of Goldenport Island.
If they were to die here, thousands of innocent lives would perish right on the island.
Sherrie’s heart was filled with reluctance as she screamed, “Ah!”
The vampire appeared before her and pulled her up.
He stared at her, seemingly surprised by how obstinate she was.
“Come on! I’m not afraid of you!” Sherrie declared.
The vampire’s eyes were tinted red as he parted his lips to bite her.
Boom!
Right then, an unprecedented power came right for the vampire and forced him to release his grip on Sherrie.
The sudden turn of events gave the survivors a shock.
What’s going on?
They then realized there were two figures who had just appeared among them.
One of them was familiar to everyone, for he was none other than Levi Garrison.
“Le…” Sherrie’s words were cut short when she realized something—Levi was dead!
Levi’s dead, right? Though he faked his death on Goldenport Island back then, he died for real later on. There’s no way he’s still alive. But this man looks exactly like Levi!
Johannes and the rest had the same thought too!
Before they could state their doubts, the vampire let out a furious roar.
It was at this moment that they realized the vampire was sent flying.
That was unheard of!
After all, they had tried their best to force the vampire to retreat, but to no avail.
No matter how they attacked him, he stood rooted to the spot.
Now, he had been sent flying!
Clearly, the newcomers were extremely strong.
There’s hope for us!
The vampire’s gaze fixated on Levi and Cyrus as rage ran red through his brain.
Perhaps he felt humiliated by how he was sent flying.
Both Levi and Cyrus stared at the creature in front of them. Levi then asked, “Do you know what this creature is?”
“If I’m not mistaken, he’s a vampire from the Ancient Clans in Adrune. However, he’s different from the vampires I know, for most vampires are handsome. I’ve never seen one as ugly as him!” Cyrus revealed.
Everyone else fell silent.
Have they gone nuts? How dare they comment on the vampire’s looks now? They clearly don’t take him seriously!
“No, this is a Progenitor, the strongest vampire ever known!” another voice declared.
The Eighteen Dark Angels finally showed themselves.
They exerted such a terrifying aura that the vampire froze before focusing on them.
Sherrie and the other survivors were delighted.
Strong fighters are here! That means we’re going to be safe, right?
“The Progenitor?” Johannes, Cyrus, and the rest blanched in horror at the Dark Angels’ words.
After all, the Progenitor was the strongest vampire ever known, and legend had it that it could live for a few thousand years.
Besides, it was also terrifyingly strong.
However, it was obvious from where Jester King obtained the coffins that they had been in hiding for a long while.
They might’ve been asleep for a few hundred years, or even more than a thousand years.
Their appearance spelled disaster.
“I can’t believe they released the Progenitors! From what we know, there are already three Progenitors roaming around!” one Dark Angel exclaimed.
Naturally, Levi knew who the Dark Angel was referring to—the Lab of Gods!
They are so persistent! I can’t believe they can do something this ruthless and crazy!
By now, everyone finally got to know the identity of the creatures that went on a rampage in Rodunst.
When the Progenitor saw everyone engaged in a discussion, he felt left out.
As anger flooded his veins, his gaze landed on Levi.
The Return of God of War Chapter 2156
Chapter 2156 Levi Setting The Eighteen Dark Angels Up
The Progenitor knew it was Levi who sent him flying earlier.
As Levi had ignored his presence all the while, he went straight for him without hesitation.
Boom!
The Progenitor appeared before Levi in a nanosecond and stretched out his hand to grab Levi.
Alas, he failed to grab anything.
Levi had swerved out of his reach swiftly.
The Progenitor widened his eyes in shock, finding it hard to believe that someone had just escaped from his claws.
Everyone else shared the same sentiment, too.
Boom!
Before the Progenitor could realize what was going on, Levi appeared behind his back and retaliated with a kick that sent him flying again.
This was the second time the Progenitor was sent flying.
Sherrie and the rest were shocked beyond belief.
What is this combat prowess?
However, Levi wasn’t at all happy with his achievements.
Though he sent the Progenitor flying twice and caused the latter utter humiliation, the vampire didn’t even get hurt.
How strong must the Progenitor be?
The furious Progenitor lashed out toward Levi again and again, but Levi managed to avoid his attacks and even managed to retaliate.
No matter what Levi did, the Progenitor remained unscathed and continued attacking him angrily.
As the Progenitor lost his mind, Levi felt his blood boiling.
A powerful force from the Progenitor was trying to suck Levi’s blood away!
“You want to suck my blood? Dream on! Even mosquitoes don’t get to suck my blood, let alone you!” Levi declared.
He stepped forward and pointed at the creature with his left hand.
It was the One Finger Technique that managed to kill the pure energy beings by gathering his energy at a single explosive point.
His right hand balled into a fist as he punched the Progenitor with the Annihilation Blast.
He was sure both strategies would work together to defeat the vampire!
Boom!
Before the explosion could happen, it disappeared into thin air.
The Annihilation Blast didn’t even get to activate itself.
The Progenitor was invincible, so the Annihilation Blast and One Finger Technique couldn’t harm him one bit.
The attacks were simply useless against him.
That was how strong the Progenitor was!
Though he was immune to Levi’s attacks, a vortex of anger swirled inside him when he realized how powerful Levi was.
This time, he was really losing his cool.
His eyes reddened as though blood was pouring in swiftly.
Little by little, he grew stronger and regained his full strength!
“What? That didn’t work?” Levi was stunned.
“Maestro, let me help!” Cyrus offered.
The Eighteen Dark Angels were watching the scene from the sidelines.
Clearly, they weren’t about to offer help.
The more miserable Levi was, the happier they were.
Before the Progenitor’s attack could land on Levi, the latter suddenly dashed away.
The Progenitor promptly ran after him.
However, Levi ran in the direction of the Eighteen Dark Angels, who were still acting like bystanders.
They were caught off guard when Levi suddenly showed up before them.
Levi sowed discord among them, and they had no choice but to fight against the Progenitor to save themselves.
The infuriated Progenitor unleashed his wrath on the Eighteen Dark Angels.
Levi dashed away swiftly.
Though the Eighteen Dark Angels wanted to leave, some of them were immobilized.
They had no choice but to continue battling against the Progenitor.
“F*ck you, Levi!” Death Fiend and the rest hollered.
Levi set them up!
Unsurprisingly, they were furious.
Grinning, Levi headed back and brought the injured survivors away with Cyrus’ help.
He didn’t feel guilty at all, for they did the same thing to him back then.
I even lost my life back then, so they deserve this.
After making sure Sherrie and the others were safe, Levi and Cyrus returned to the scene.
They wanted to know where Zoey was, so it was important to find out whether the Progenitor or the Dark Angels would win the fight.
The Return of God of War Chapter 2157
Chapter 2157 The Similarities Between Levi And The Progenitor
Indeed, the Progenitor’s power was on par with the Eighteen Dark Angels.
However, the Eighteen Dark Angels managed to stop the Progenitor from advancing.
After Levi and Cyrus came back, they stood aside and watched the battle.
The Eighteen Dark Angels gritted their teeth in anger. How dare that b*stard stand aside and watch?
“Won’t you help? He’s our common enemy!” they demanded.
Both Levi and Cyrus folded their arms nonchalantly. “Nah, we’ll just watch from the sidelines for now.”
It was obvious that he wasn’t about to help them out.
Though the Eighteen Dark Angels were seething in anger, there was nothing they could do.
It was impossible for them to break free of the Progenitor due to their sheer number.
They had to work together to defeat the creature.
Levi and Cyrus weren’t really enjoying the show from aside; they were actually trying to find the weakness of the Progenitor.
After a while, they concluded that the creature was invincible.
He had no weaknesses at all!
The Progenitor was indestructible and unkillable, just like the previous pure energy beings.
However, the Progenitor was obviously more hard to defeat.
One could defeat pure energy beings by crushing their energy, but nothing could pierce through the Progenitor’s skin.
They couldn’t inflict any injury on him.
The only weakness, which wasn’t really one, was that the Progenitor wasn’t good at attacking.
Perhaps he hadn’t regained his full power, for his attacks were weak.
He couldn’t maximize his power as of now.
Though the Eighteen Dark Angels couldn’t defeat him, he wasn’t able to wipe them out, too.
Even so, he could oppress them easily.
Once he regained his full strength, there was no telling how titanic he would get.
The stronger the Progenitor got, the harder the Eighteen Dark Angels found it to hold him back.
“Come help us now!” they barked.
“Let’s go!”
Both Levi and Cyrus took action.
The twenty fighters joined in as well.
It was an unprecedented fight.
The Eighteen Dark Angels felt exasperated, for they initially came to take Levi but ended up being free labor.
This can’t be a coincidence.
The twenty fighters went all out and attacked the Progenitor, making him letting out an unhappy roar.
He wanted to suck their blood dry, but each and every one of them was extremely capable.
They unleashed their attacks like madmen.
Despite being strong and impenetrable, his attack was his weak spot.
Soon, he was cornered.
He wanted to become stronger, but the rest wouldn’t let him do so.
Boom, boom, boom!
Time and time again, he was sent flying across the air.
Every time he fell, he’d stand up swiftly.
None of them could injure him at all.
“Hurry up and think of something, or we’re finished for real!” Death Fiend declared.
Someone chimed in, “Yes, show your trump card. This isn’t the time to hide your true ability!”
Apparently, everyone had a trump card hidden instead of showing their true prowess.
Now, it was time for them to unleash their true abilities.
Levi immediately unleashed Forbidden Annihilation, and a menacing power that was on par with the Progenitor’s aura flowed within him.
Upon realizing his sudden burst of energy, the Progenitor froze and gaped at him in disbelief.
A glint of surprise appeared in his once dull eyes.
Why does this seem familiar?
He was shocked by the killing energy emanating from Levi.
“Damn it!” Everyone else gasped incredulously.
Levi’s so strong! He obviously wants to use the Forbidden Technique to fight against the Progenitor alone!
The Return of God of War Chapter 2158
Chapter 2158 Five Generations Of The Progenitor
As the twenty fighters joined forces, the Progenitor was soon at his wit’s end.
“Come on, let’s take him down!”
Their attacks grew more intense.
The Progenitor was soon ensnared.
He let out a loud roar together with a burst of sudden energy that sent six Dark Angels flying backward.
After an opening appeared, he escaped instead of continuing his attacks.
He ended up jumping into the sea.
Before doing that, he turned at his shoulders and shot Levi a complicated gaze. There was confusion and curiosity in his eyes before he disappeared.
“Go after him!”
The masses went after him and didn’t find him anywhere.
Instead of hiding on Goldenport Island, he had swum toward Adrune.
“Looks like the Progenitor isn’t a beast after his awakening. He knows how to flee!” Levi exclaimed in surprise.
In fact, he was puzzled by the Progenitor’s weird reaction.
That was really strange.
“Let’s count our losses.”
They went to where Sherrie and the rest were hiding and told them what had happened.
At the end of the revelation, everyone erupted in cheers.
Sherrie and the others finally discovered that Levi was still alive.
They were excited to learn the news.
Levi then counted their losses and entrusted the Hilton family to deal with the rest.
It was time for Levi and the Eighteen Dark Angels’ discussion.
“Oh, no. They are here!” Levi sensed another group’s arrival. “Hide out of sight. I’ll come to find you later!” he told the Eighteen Dark Angels.
They nodded and concealed themselves instantly.
One hour was up, and the divine generals’ apprentices from The Cardinal Hall had arrived.
They rushed toward the scene without hesitation.
Alas, the remains of the factory greeted them.
“Could it be…” That everyone was killed, allowing the creature to infiltrate Goldenport Island?
That was their first thought.
Nevertheless, they soon ran into Levi and the rest.
“Mm? It’s you? Why are you here?”
The apprentices of the divine generals had been holding back their disgust for Levi for a long time.
If possible, they wanted to beat him up.
After all, Levi was arrogant back in The Cardinal Hall and even managed to escape unscathed.
That fact alone made their irritation flare.
They had been holding back their resentment, so the mere sight of Levi stoked their anger.
“Ah, The Cardinal Hall is terribly slow. If you were to come any later, you’ll have to clear the mess!” Cyrus sneered.
The apprentices burst out angrily, “Do you have a death wish?”
They promptly took action to take Levi and Cyrus’ lives.
Celia and the others would stop them from doing so in The Cardinal Hall, but they weren’t here.
They could do whatever they desired!
“Hold on!” their leader barked. “Calm down, everyone.”
He turned to Cyrus and asked, “Did you defeat that creature?”
Cyrus shot them a disgusted look. “Of course. If we were to wait for you, we would’ve been dead by now.”
The Cardinal Hall’s men shook in anger, but their leader stopped them from taking action.
They couldn’t stand the incessant provocations from Levi and Cyrus anymore!
“What is that creature?” their leader inquired.
Cyrus explained, “He’s the Progenitor, a vampire from the Ancient Clans. I believe he’s the first few Progenitors, most probably from the first five generations.”
“What? A Progenitor from the first five generations?” The leader inhaled sharply.
Obviously, he knew what the Progenitor was.
It spelled disaster!
“Does that mean the creature who wrecked Rodunst is a Progenitor, too?” he asked curiously.
“Yes. There are two of them in Rodunst!” Cyrus answered.
The man gasped in horror again.
The Return of God of War Chapter 2159
Chapter 2159 Running Your Mouth
The ones who were clueless about the Progenitor looked confused.
“Is the Progenitor really so powerful?” someone asked curiously.
His question caused everyone to look at him with bafflement.
“Of course he is! Even the divine generals quake in fear when they hear his name.”
After the reply, the man who’d first raised the question kept his mouth sealed.
Finally, everyone realized the terrifying nature of the Progenitor as it was a creature that could strike fear even into the hearts of the divine generals.
They couldn’t believe that such a horrifying creature once roamed Goldenport Island.
“Since the Progenitor is nowhere to be seen, have you dealt with it already? The two of you look unscathed,” the gathered crowd asked fearfully.
“We have yet to deal with it because the Progenitor slipped out of our clutches. However, we have resolved Goldenport Island’s danger,” Levi replied solemnly.
“In truth, we managed to drive it away. Yet, its overwhelming strength makes it almost immortal,” Cyrus explained.
Everyone was stunned.
After a brief moment of silence, they regained their senses.
“Even after such a long battle, the two of you couldn’t subdue the Progenitor? You even let him escape? What if it is still lurking around Goldenport Island? Who knows, it might even make its way to other parts of Erudia.”
“Do you know what you’ve done? You made the situation even worse than before! You’ve angered it! What if it decides to take revenge?”
“Are you sure it ran away? It might be biding its time in hiding. There’s a possibility that it sneaked into Erudia instead. How can you guarantee our safety?”
Stricken with fear, the crowd hurled hysterical questions toward Cyrus and Levi.
Instead of expressing their gratitude, they were furious that Levi and Cyrus allowed the Progenitor to escape.
The onslaught of questions left the duo stunned as they stood there, at a loss for words.
Never in their wildest dreams had they expected such a reaction.
Are they for real? How much more shameless can this crowd get?
“Levi, I noticed that you are always at the forefront whenever something like this happens. How can you call yourself a savior when such a huge mishap has happened?”
“Great, not only did you fail to defeat the Progenitor, you even let it escape. Will you be the one responsible if something bad happens?” someone from the crowd called out sarcastically.
“Your mistakes have destroyed The Cardinal Hall’s plans. In truth, we are the advance team. Soon, The Cardinal Hall General will be here to clear up this mess himself.”
“That’s right!” The crowd nodded fervently. Their moods lifted when their general was mentioned. Although the Progenitor was strong, they were confident that The Cardinal Hall General could defeat it. After all, he had personally ventured forth to settle matters.
Once he was here, the Progenitor would be doomed. There would be no room left for it to escape.
However, Levi and Cyrus did not share the group’s enthusiasm. How could they change their minds so quickly? Weren’t they just scared out of their wits? We have a disaster on our hands.
Levi and Cyrus were puzzled by the group’s sudden change in demeanor.
Clearly, they were the ones who took action and worked together to solve Goldenport Island’s crisis.
However, they were met with criticisms and had to shoulder the blame.
Although the group arrived late, they pointed their fingers at Levi instead of owning up to their mistakes.
Furthermore, they blamed Levi and Cyrus for allowing the Progenitor to flee.
No matter how hard he tried, Levi could not wrap his head around the group’s logic and reasoning.
“Are you guys insane? The entirety of Goldenport Island would have succumbed by the time you arrived. Everyone here would have been slaughtered in cold blood. They were the ones who saved this island! How could you push the blame on them? Where were you when thousands of us were murdered in the hands of the Progenitor? Where were you when Goldenport Island was threatened? Of course, it’s much easier to push the blame on others, right? After all, this was all your fault. It was your weakness and incapability that led to the Progenitor coming here! Repeatedly, you’ve thrust Erudia into danger. It’s all because the bunch of you are good-for-nothing fools!” Unable to stand it anymore, Sherrie exploded in anger.
When the words left her mouth, the members of The Cardinal Hall flushed with anger.
Sherrie merely laughed coldly. “Have you realized the true extent of your uselessness? Why are all of you silent now? Weren’t you running your mouth a moment ago?”
Her words provoked them even more as they resisted the urge to hit her.
Yet, they could not deny the truth in her insulting remarks as Sherrie had hit a nerve.

Chapter 2160 The Arrival Of The Cardinal Hall General
“What’s the matter? Do you want to kill me? Go ahead then. Since you can’t handle the Progenitor, the most you can do is take your anger out on regular citizens,” Sherrie called out tauntingly, “It’s the only thing you lot are good at!”
The bunch of The Cardinal Hall members- a group akin to “God,” fumed in anger.
Nevertheless, they could not lash out and had to restrain their temper.
If they killed Sherrie, it would only prove that her words were right.
They were a prideful group that refused to admit to their mistakes.
Both Levi and Cyrus had to resist the urge to burst out laughing.
It was comical to see them utterly humiliated by a young maiden as they could not retaliate.
They could only accept her insults in silence and embarrassment.
A bitter look crossed their faces when they heard Sherrie’s endless slanders.
Today, they had suffered a huge blow to their reputation.
“Since this is none of our business, our help ends here. We’ll leave the rest to you,” Levi announced and prepared to leave the scene with Cyrus.
They still needed to find Zoey and the Eighteen Dark Angels.
“Where do you think you are going? Are you trying to escape after this huge disaster?” Immediately, someone tried to halt them in their tracks.
The leader of the group stepped forward. “Stop chasing after them! Aren’t you guys ashamed of your actions?” he roared at his men.
“Though the truth is a hard pill to swallow, Levi was the one who single-handedly saved Goldenport Island. Without him, all of its citizens would be corpses. However, saving them should be our responsibility. Due to our negligence, Levi had to take the burden as we couldn’t arrive here on time!” their leader uttered coldly.
Such words caused his men to clench their fists in fury as their faces turned crimson red with anger.
How embarrassing!
As members of The Cardinal Hall, they liked to put themselves on a pedestal.
Subconsciously, they’ve always felt a sense of superiority and took pride in their strength.
The Cardinal Hall’s members viewed themselves as the protectors of Erudia and expected the people’s blind devotion.
However, Levi was an exception. Repeatedly, he managed to stun the world with his actions and stole their glory as he carried out their responsibilities in their stead.
This made them feel indignant.
This indignance worsened because Levi was rumored to be stronger than them.
Even if that was true, they were too prideful to submit to him. His overwhelming strength merely increased their hatred toward him as their egos were bruised.
However, they had to admit that Levi was today’s hero because they arrived on the scene far too late.
After this incident, they loathed Levi even more.
They were determined not to let him steal their thunder anymore.
One by one, they swore that such a humiliating incident would never happen again.
After Levi and his group left, thundering noise echoed in the sky as a massive aircraft approached Golderport Island.
As soon as the aircraft landed, members of The Cardinal Hall rushed to welcome its arrival.
The doors slid open to reveal a mysterious figure.
The moment he stepped foot on solid ground, a menacing aura swept over the place. It felt as if a mountain had descended over Golderport Island.
The figure was dressed in a simple robe; his arms were crossed behind his back as he made his way out of the aircraft.
His pace was slow and unhurried, making him look like a divine being who walked amongst the mortal world.
Upon closer look, the figure had a cold yet handsome face.
Judging from his youthful appearance, he couldn’t be more than thirty years old.
This captivating man was none other than Edmund – The Cardinal Hall General.
The helm of The Cardinal Hall had finally made his appearance.
In a hurry, he had returned from the North to control the hectic situation the moment he caught wind about the incident in Goldenport Island.
“Where is it?” Edmund asked.
“Sir, it is a Progenitor from one of the earlier generations of Adrune’s Ancient Clans. We suspect that it might be from the first five generations. However, Levi has driven it away,” one of the men explained.
“Levi? Is he the father of that young genius?”
It was apparent that Edmund knew about Levi.
