Chapter 990: Korrin The Titan
Eleanora and the leaders beside her frowned at Korrin\'s condescending tone. Despite being the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City leaders, he showed them no respect, disregarding their positions.
Nonetheless, they couldn\'t help but furrow their brows upon hearing such a name. Some leaders frowned deeply as they suddenly recalled the figure\'s identity.
Due to the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City steadily advancing to become a Grade Two Runaway City, some of their gods\' chosens had begun to make a name for themselves, gaining renown among the Runaway Cities. One such figure was \'Korrin the Titan.\' He had manoeuvred through a team of gods\' chosens from a Grade Two Runaway City by single- handedly carrying a carved boulder filled with millions of resources for the Trekking Flamingo Runaway over a long distance after his team was ambushed.
It was said that if Korrin hadn\'t succeeded, the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City would have lost a significant portion of its territory due to insufficient resources to defend it.
Despite there being even more incredible feats in the world, the Arakocra race was renowned for its swiftness and agility, making Korrin\'s achievement worthy of praise. It demonstrated his ability to push beyond his limits, transcending the expectations of his race.
Nonetheless, they couldn\'t help but feel irritated that the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City hadn\'t sent their Chief Diplomat and Envoy but dispatched a unit leader to them.
They concealed their irritation, maintaining control over their emotions, knowing they could not act independently without orders from Paradise.
"Yes, I am Queen Eleanora, the supreme leader of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City. These are the leaders who oversee its various sections," Eleanora introduced herself and the other leaders behind her.
Witnessing the leaders\' briefly stunned faces upon hearing his name, Korrin smiled lightly before they swiftly returned shortly. With his achievements, once anyone knew his name, they would instantly recognize his identity.
That will make it much easier for them to speak.
"We are here to retrieve Patriarch Rylan and the Divine Artefact. The Trekking Flamingo Runaway City is not here to engage in meaningless strife, so if you have either, surrender them, and we will leave," Korrin responded, his words tinged with an underlying threat. Initially, they had considered investigating why both the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City and the Sleeping Fox Runaway City were in such close proximity without engaging in combat, given their similar objectives. However, time constraints prevented any such investigation.
They had spent months trailing behind the two Runaway Cities, intending to let them exhaust each other before swooping in to seize both the Patriarch and the Divine Artefact while easily conquering two Grade One Runaway Cities, thereby increasing the forces under them. Unfortunately, the unexpected turn of events left them no choice but to confront the Runaway Cities directly and demand their surrender.
As for directly engaging in battle with two Runaway Cities, that was something they weren\'t afraid of. After all, they were just one step away from being promoted to a Grade Two Runaway City, so they were eager to showcase their strength as proof of their imminent promotion.
Contrary to his expectations, Eleanora shook her head in response. "Unfortunately, we do not have Patriarch Rylan or the Divine Artefact. We have more pressing matters to attend to than either of those. Therefore, we have ceased our search," she replied, her gaze fixed on Korrin. "What could be more pressing than retrieving Patriarch Rylan and the Divine Artefact?" Korrin retorted, narrowing his eyes and frowning as he heard her words.
Although he was somewhat surprised that the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City hadn\'t managed to discover and seize Patriarch Rylan and the Divine Artefact, that was the extent of his surprise. If they didn\'t have it, it meant the Sleeping Fox Runaway City had indeed obtained them.
However, he was curious about what pressing issues could be more important than Patriarch Rylan and the Divine Artefact and whether these issues explained why both Runaway Cities were in such close proximity without attacking each other.
Eleanora smiled in response. "Did you see the enormous crater in the earth just before arriving at my Runaway City?" she asked.
"Yes, I noticed it on our way here," Korrin replied, his brow furrowed. Having encountered numerous strange terrains, he was perplexed by Eleanora\'s statement and how it related to matters more pressing than a Divine Artefact.
Nonetheless, he began to wonder if they had made a mistake by not investigating the immense crater before swiftly heading towards the direction of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City.
"Good. Below the crater lies an immense amount of untouched Vylkr alloy mine. And if you look more closely, using the keen sight of your Arakocra race, you\'ll also notice significant activity around it, harvesting the Vylkr alloys. Unfortunately, I\'ve surrendered the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City to the forces behind them. As such, we are no longer interested in retrieving the Divine Artefact and Patriarch Rylan," Eleanora responded, her expression solemn, even as Korrin and the members of the 2nd Unit Vanguard Team showed shock and bewilderment.
Bang!
Korrin felt as though an unprecedented force had crashed against his ears.
The immense crater at the centre of this territory contains a Vylkr alloy mine! The revelation was enough to shock anyone in the current world, as everyone knew what owning a Vylkr alloy
mine meant.
Fame! Power!! Authority!! This small Vylkr alloy mine would grant any Runaway City. However, one of this size was enough to propel the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City to even greater heights, placing it at the pinnacle of the Grade Two Runaway Cities hierarchy. Korrin swiftly recomposed himself with some difficulty and focused his attention on Eleanora. "Are you sure about this information, Queen Eleanora? And if so, what is the name of this unknown force?" he asked, his tone rigid.
"Yes, it\'s true. I have no reason to lie about something like this. And the name of this powerful force is \'Paradise,\'" Eleanora responded, nodding.
