Chapter 606: Chapter 463: Tipping Off (Part 2)

"Yue Mao... was killed by someone with wings!"

Back in the villa, Flora Bloom, Lex Cross, Caleb Bloom, Jade, and the others all fell silent.

Although Yue Mao was rarely seen, he had helped Flora Bloom by gathering information and giving her reminders about many matters within the base.

During the many days Lex Cross had been away in the past, he had never shown himself, but Flora Bloom knew there was always someone in the shadows, watching over her.

’Dead?’

The news caught Flora Bloom completely off guard. Even The Crown Prince, a civet cat hiding in the shadows, grew unsettled.

Yue Mao had often asked them for tips on Hidden Abilities and sparred with them frequently. Although they always beat him soundly, a bond of brotherhood had been forged between the men.

A silence fell over the room, which was finally broken by Flora Bloom.

"Someone with wings?" Flora Bloom murmured softly.

"It’s someone from the Pryce family or the Thundersnow Clan." Lex Cross’s expression was calm, his eyes slightly narrowed, but he knew in his heart that the day’s events were anything but ordinary.

Suddenly, the temperature inside the Morhaven base plummeted. An icy energy enveloped the entire base, and in broad daylight, flakes of frost began to fall from the sky.

The little flowers and grasses in Flora Bloom’s mental link had already told her it was a great bird with pure white plumage.

"They’re here," Flora Bloom said. "It’s the Thunderbird Clan." Flora and Lex Cross had encountered the Thunderbird Clan under the sea before, so through the mental transmission from her plants, she accurately guessed the identity of the newcomer.

At that moment, all the combat personnel of Villa No. 3 had gathered, with the sole exception of Yue Mao.

From Ethan Monroe to Neal Wallace, everyone was filled with a menacing aura, their faces contorted with rage over what had happened to Yue Mao.

"I don’t care who or what they are! Yue Mao must be avenged!" Ethan Monroe said, clenching his fists fiercely. "Let’s go! Let Old Monroe see just who dared to kill my brother!"

Flora Bloom clenched her fists, her teeth grinding together, but in the end, she just shook her head. She glanced at Polly, who was asleep on the Nightmare Beast’s back, and smiled lovingly. "Mom, Maeve, please watch Polly for me. Don’t come out, no matter what."

Flora Bloom seemed calm, and her voice was steady. But Lex Cross knew she was suppressing a storm of fury.

"Why can’t we go with you?" Cynthia Grant asked.

"Yeah! Let us go avenge Yue Mao!"

A glint appeared in Lex Cross’s eyes. "Everyone, let’s listen to Flora. The person from the Thundersnow Clan who has come is a War God Level expert. This is not something to be taken lightly."

"What? War God Level?" Sherman Lynch’s old face creased with worry. "You and Lex are only at the Cosmic Level. How can you possibly face a War God?"

"Flora, is it necessary to go?"

Flora Bloom shook her head, unwilling to tell everyone why this War God Level master had come. It would only cause more worry. The Divine-level Space Fragment had brought her back to life and had long since fused with her.

’It’s impossible for me to hand it over. Not unless I’m dead. Besides, aren’t these fragments the reason all the cosmic families have come?’

The moment the man from Thundersnow Temple reverted to his Thunderbird form and entered the Morhaven base, he was locked onto by the Golden Crow.

SKRAW! With a high-pitched, resonant cry, the Golden Crow’s massive form appeared before the man from Thundersnow Temple, blocking his path to the Villa No. 3 district.

"What kind of bird dares to trespass on my territory!"

The man from Thundersnow Temple was startled, instinctively spinning in the air to evade the Golden Crow’s lock. When he got a clear look at the enormous golden bird before him, his eyes nearly popped out of his head.

"L-Lord Golden Crow! W-Why are you here?!"

The Golden Crow snorted coldly. "If you know I’m here, then scram! Don’t go flitting about in front of me, you’re annoying!" The Golden Crow was mentally linked with Flora Bloom and could sense her distress. Although this War God from the Thundersnow Clan was powerful, they were both avians. As the supreme ruler among birds, the Golden Crow possessed a natural bloodline suppression over him.

Although its power was roughly equivalent to the first tier of the Cosmic Level by human classification, evolved creatures were already invincible among their peers. What’s more, the Golden Crow was a Divine Beast, possessing an aerial advantage and the all-incinerating True Sun Fire. Fighting a War God, an entire level above it, was not a difficult task.

"This... Lord Golden Crow, a descendant of my Thundersnow Clan is here. I only wish to bring them back. I have no intention of harming anyone."

The Golden Crow communicated with Flora Bloom. After getting her approval, it led the man from Thundersnow Temple, now back in his human form, into Villa No. 3.

Despite being a Second Level War God, when the man from Thundersnow Temple entered Villa No. 3 and saw the environment within, his jaw nearly hit the floor.
