Vengeance: Ex-Husband CEO, Please Love Me Chapter 187 – The Expedition Began

Chapter 187: The Expedition Began

“Vincent, you're finally back. I haven't heard from you in a few days. I was starting to worry about your safety!”

Enoch welcomed Vincent and the others with a smile. He then led his troops to greet them.

Vincent walked forward and said with a smile, “Don't worry, it's just a small incident. It has been resolved anyway!”

Enoch noticed the disabled old man on Chris's back. He could not help but ask, “This is…?”

Vincent turned his head to look at the Dragon King who no longer looked human. He sighed and said, “An old soldier who accidentally fell into a Black Hole. He is pitiful. We brought him back on the way!”

Enoch nodded and brought Vincent into a big tent.

Vincent looked at the tents around him and the soldiers on duty. He could not help but smile and say, “It has only been a few days, but the number of troops that are loyal to you seemed to have increased by quite a bit!”

Enoch smiled and said, “Alexander led his army to attack you. I took the opportunity to create an avalanche behind them. I won a great victory in the first battle and captured many soldiers. After knowing the purpose of our mission, many soldiers were willing to join our camp. Only a small portion of them were not willing to fight, so I let them go!”

“What about Alexander?” asked Vincent.

“He was captured and is currently being held captive by General Byron's guards!” said Enoch.

Vincent nodded and said, “Then get ready. We'll set off tomorrow!”

“Okay!”

Enoch replied excitedly.

After saying goodbye to Enoch, Vincent returned to the tent to prepare the God-Slaying squad. The moment he entered, he only saw Teacher Chris, Angelina, and Avril, the three girls. The others were not in the tent.

“Where are the others?” asked Vincent.

Teacher Chris replied, “Chris took the Dragon King to the soldier's tent to take a bath. The others went to help as well!”

Vincent nodded. He sat down and waited for them to return.

After a while, Chris and the others returned to the tent whilst carrying the Dragon King who had freshened up and had changed into a set of clean clothes.

“Everyone has worked hard. Rest well tonight. Tomorrow, we will send troops to Skyfrost City!” said Vincent to everyone.

Everyone naturally agreed in unison.

The Dragon King looked at him and suddenly asked, “Junior, when that young man asked you about me earlier, why didn't you tell him my true identity?”

Vincent sighed somewhat helplessly, “Senior has always been famous. The name of the Dragon King is an existence that is highly respected in the hearts of the commoners in all countries. How can I easily mention senior's name and let your wisdom suffer?”

The Dragon King laughed softly. He retorted, “Wrong! Very wrong! You should tell everyone about my name and what happened to me. Let them know about Swain, Frank, and the others. This will be of great help to your next plan!”

Vincent could not help but nod when he heard that as it was indeed a good way to stir up the anger of the people!

Chris, who was at the side, could not bear to hear this and said, “But, senior, won't you become a laughingstock for others?”

The Dragon King gave a mournful smile and said, “I am already a person who is about to die, so what's the use of having a ruined body? I might as well give it to you, young people, as an opportunity to change the world!”

Vincent stood up and walked to the Dragon King. He bowed deeply and said, “On behalf of the Human Race, thank you for your great righteousness, senior!”

The other members of the God-Slaying squad also stood up and bowed to the Dragon King, thanking him for his contribution to the Human Race!

Although the Dragon King was blind, he still waved his hand lightly and said, “I have another wish. I wonder if you can help me complete it?”

“Please voice out, senior. We will do our best to help you complete it!” said Vincent solemnly.

The Dragon King nodded and said, “I want to go to Skyfrost City and personally hear what happened to Frank. I want to avenge my past!”

Without waiting for Vincent to agree, Chris, who had the most temper, was the first to step out and say, “No problem! I will definitely carry senior to Skyfrost City!”

“Alright!”

The Dragon King nodded his head in satisfaction.

Vincent suddenly noticed that psionic power was still seeping out from the Dragon King's wound that was already bandaged. The bandage did not seem to stop his injury. He could not help but ask, “Senior's wound, why hasn't it healed?”

The Dragon King did not seem to mind as he said, “Back then, the Protoss had placed a curse on my wound. He said that my wounds will never heal. Although I survived by eating rotten meat for many years, I had only lived for a few days. It was only a matter of time before the oil lamp ran out. However, I will definitely survive until the day Skyfrost City falls!”

After hearing what he said, everyone could not help but feel sad. They did not expect that the expert of this generation would end up so helpless.

“Sooner or later, we will fight our way back to the Black Hole world and work hard to improve ourselves. We will destroy the Phantom Race, we will destroy Gajero, and we will also destroy that sh*t God Race!”

Chris roared angrily.

“Good kid, you have ambition. What's your name?” asked the Dragon King with great approval.

“Chris!”

“Mm, from now on, you'll be in charge of carrying me. I'll also see what you can do!” said the Dragon King.

Chris did not think too much and nodded.

“Senior, don't worry. I'll definitely carry you steadily!” said Chris.

Vincent looked at the Dragon King thoughtfully. He then gave Teacher Chris a look. The two of them left the tent one after another.

In the snow, Vincent frowned and asked Teacher Chris, “Do you know what the Dragon King's superpower is?”

Teacher Chris shook her head in confusion and said, “It's been too long. When he first activated his superpower, the Dragon King was not famous. Not many people saw him fight, so no one knows his superpower. Why are you suddenly asking this?”

“Nothing, I'm just curious!” said Vincent with a smile.

Teacher Chris lowered her head and thought for a moment. She then said, “But I think his superpower must be related to his title. Other king-class superpowered people of the same era are all named after their country's title. The Dragon King on the other hand does not represent any country, so his title must have some other meaning!”

“The Dragon King?”

Vincent pondered and nodded with a smile.

Teacher Chris saw Vincent's mysterious look and could not help but ask, “What exactly did you think of?”

“To be a Dragon King, life and death may have long been indifferent, but to not be able to pass down his legacy before his death, it is quite a pity!”

Vincent muttered and sighed.

Teacher Chris also nodded and sighed, “Who would have thought that the king of a generation would have such a sad ending!”

“Maybe! Maybe the heavens will give the Dragon King a suitable disciple!”

Vincent sighed softly and the two returned to their tent.

The night passed without a word. The next morning, the God-Slaying squad took the lead and set off towards Skyfrost City.

Enoch and General Bryon led the army and left the northern polar region in a grandiose manner. They followed behind the God-Slaying squad.

Before setting off, Vincent told everyone about the Dragon King's identity as instructed by the Dragon King. He told the soldiers about what had happened in the past and told them to tell the surrounding civilians along the way.

After the Dragon King displayed his king-class aura, everyone believed Vincent's story without a doubt. They believe that the human genius of the generation had been destroyed in the hands of four people who coveted the thrones. Everyone's hatred towards Frank deepened. At the same time, they had a stronger fighting spirit!

Therefore, when Vincent and the others rushed to the foot of Skyfrost City, the entire Arctic Country already knew the secret of the Black Hole. Everyone lost confidence in the treacherous emperor, and voices of denunciation rose and fell one after another. It was as if they were looking forward to Frank's downfall.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers had already gathered at the foot of Skyfrost City. They were all waiting for Vincent and the others to arrive.

The emperor of the Arctic Country, Frank, came to the city personally as well. He looked at the seven people in the distance. One of them was carrying the figure of an old man on his back. The fury in Frank's eyes kept roaring.

“Who dares to go out of the city to face the enemy?” asked Frank in a deep voice.

However, the princes and ministers standing behind Frank only looked at each other. No one stepped forward to answer him.

The strength of the God-Slaying squad was no longer a secret. In the whole world, only four emperors were qualified to fight with them. Besides them, who else could fight against this squad made up of all king-class superpowered people?

However, Frank did not think so at that moment. Instead, he turned to the crowd and berated them angrily, “What? Do you all want me to step down so that you can welcome Enoch as your emperor? I've treated you all quite well, but I didn't expect that no one would dare to fight for me during such a critical moment!”

The crowd looked at one another. No one explained because the emperor was already suspicious of them. No matter how much they explained, it would be useless. They were disappointed in him!

“Your Majesty, I am willing to be your lobbyist!”

Suddenly, an old voice sounded.

The crowd looked behind them and saw the old minister Andrew, who had been dismissed a long time ago. He walked up shakily and offered to help Frank!

“Good! Good, good!”

Frank saw the situation and was overjoyed. He quickly went up to him and said, “Andrew! You are indeed my loyal minister. If you convince the God-Slaying squad to withdraw their troops, I will let you resume your position. No, I will share the throne with you!”

Andrew looked at the still incomparably muddleheaded Frank, and resolutely lowered his head. He then said, “I will go now!”

With that, Andrew turned around and walked down the city wall.

Outside the city, Vincent and the others looked at the majestic Skyfrost City. They were discussing ways to enter the city with a relaxed expression.

“If we attack by force, it will be very difficult to take down this city in a short period of time, and there are still so many defenders down there. It is very likely that they will pose a threat to us!”

“But we are not familiar with the Arctic Country and do not have reliable strength to borrow. What can we do if we do not attack by force?”

“We have been waiting here for three days. Enoch's army will arrive soon. When the time comes, we can directly lead the army to attack!”

Vincent could not help but shake his head when he heard everyone's suggestions. He said worriedly, “Even if the strength on both sides is vastly different, the outcome of the siege is still hard to say!”
