GROIKTP Chapter 455

Shura’s “corpse” lay in two pieces, motionless.

The Wind God and Adam stood nearby, casually conversing and laughing.

Seeing this, the countless Reincarnators present were left in stunned silence, unable to process the reality in front of them.

It was as though they couldn’t accept what had just happened…

Everyone knew of Shura’s immense talent, and it was widely understood that given a bit more time, Shura would undoubtedly become the greatest warrior in the world.

This man, who had achieved unprecedented feats in the Reincarnation Tower, had broken records that no one before him had even approached.

He had only cleared the sixteenth floor of the Reincarnation Tower, yet his overall strength had already reached S-rank, making him one of the top experts in the world.

And yet, this legendary figure had fallen here today…

“Shura… Shura is dead?”

“He’s dead. That weapon of Adam’s wasn’t ordinary—I could feel an inexplicable power from it.”

“My god, it’s unbelievable… the genius Shura, dead right here!”

“Damn it, so this was all a conspiracy? Adam, that despicable bastard…”

“This is a major incident! Shura’s death here will undoubtedly destroy the delicate power balance that Summer Country had just achieved.”

“Forget about Summer Country, worry about ourselves! Didn’t you hear what Adam just said? He’s teaming up with the Wind God to wipe out all the Reincarnators here tonight.”

“Quick, let’s get out of here!”

…

Many of the Reincarnators who had come to watch the spectacle realized the whole thing was a trap, and their first thought was to escape.

Adam’s earlier words had been heard by many.

If they didn’t leave now, they would be waiting for their own deaths.

With Adam and the Wind God—two seemingly unkillable monsters—working together, they certainly had the power to annihilate everyone present…

The one fleeing the fastest wasn’t anyone else but the top fighter from Northern Bear: Sventovit!

When Kamil saw Shura fall into the trap and die, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Just moments before, he had been ready to sneak up on the Wind God, aiming to claim the million Reincarnation points.

Luckily, Kamil hadn’t moved quickly enough. Otherwise, it might have been him lying dead instead of Shura!

Realizing the whole thing had been a setup, Kamil immediately understood that he had been deceived by Adam as well.

Without hesitation, he turned and fled to avoid becoming Adam and the Wind God’s next target.

…

At the same time.

In the Summer Country.

In the capital city, inside the political power center.

In a large conference room, the highest-ranking officials and numerous top leaders were watching a live broadcast on the large screen.

The footage, taken by an A-ranked Reincarnator who had risked his life to stream from the island nation, showed the moment when Shura was cut in half by Adam’s sword.

The entire leadership was in shock.

The top leader even stood up from his seat, unable to contain himself…

Although Shura had not officially joined the government’s forces, the fact remained that he was a citizen of the Summer Country.

Having a genius like Shura rise from the Summer Country was undoubtedly a huge boon for the nation. Even if they couldn’t command him directly, just his presence would have served as a significant deterrent to their enemies.

After all, an A-ranked Reincarnator was already considered a strategic asset on par with intercontinental missiles.

An S-ranked Reincarnator? That was akin to a mobile nuclear weapon!

In some ways, calling an S-rank Reincarnator a god wasn’t far-fetched.

And now, this newly risen S-rank Reincarnator—Shura—had been killed so easily. It was hard to accept.

Nearly every senior leader wore a grim expression.

Only one elder showed a slight movement in his gaze, a trace of satisfaction flashing through his eyes.

This elder was a close friend of the Ye family patriarch. Not only were their families connected by marriage, but they were also allies. He knew everything about the conflict between the Ye family and Shura. Now that Shura was dead, the crisis facing the Ye family had been immediately resolved…

Good riddance!

“This was a trap! We must get Xiao Song out of there immediately!” one elder suddenly shouted. “It’s a tragedy to lose Shura, but we can’t let Xiao Song fall too!”

Many people voiced their agreement.

The top leader also found this reasoning sound.

With Adam and that demon-like Wind God working together, Song Lingrong stood no chance against them on her own. Keeping her there would be extremely dangerous.

“Send the order. Have Xiao Song retreat and avoid a direct confrontation with the enemy.”

…

In the skies above Sakaguchi.

Song Lingrong’s expression was one of deep grief, her eyes filled with guilt and pain.

Earlier, when she couldn’t destroy the Gate of Heaven, she had called on Shura to kill the Wind God.

Though her intention was to help Shura claim the million Reincarnation points as a reward, the fact remained that Shura had followed her suggestion, only to fall into a trap and die.

In Song Lingrong’s mind, she bore a significant part of the responsibility for his death.

Watching Shura get cut in half by Adam’s sword with her own eyes filled her with sorrow. She struggled to accept the reality of his death.

It wasn’t that Song Lingrong had romantic feelings for Shura; their relationship had been purely one of friendship.

But even friendship was a form of affection!

Remembering how Shura had helped her and even saved her life, seeing him die now weighed heavily on Song Lingrong’s heart.

Even more troubling…

She didn’t know how she would explain this to her cousin, Tang Yuting!

That girl had only just found her ideal partner, and now, after being brought out here, he was gone…

“Adam! Wind God!!”

Song Lingrong gritted her teeth as she uttered their names, her gaze fixed on Adam and the Wind God below, her eyes blazing with murderous intent.

On the ground below.

Watching as the surrounding Reincarnators fled one by one, the Wind God spoke up. “Hey, Adam, all those Reincarnators are about to run off!”

“It doesn’t matter. They’re just a bunch of rats. We can clean them up anytime. Our focus should be eliminating the biggest threat first,” Adam replied, his gaze shifting to Song Lingrong in the sky, a smile spreading across his face.

“Song! You have two choices now: either join us or choose death!”

“If you agree to join, I might even consider making you my wife. I’m going to create a great kingdom, and you could be its queen, revered by millions!”

Hearing these words, Song Lingrong’s eyes burned with fury.

Then suddenly, she froze.

She had noticed something on the ground—Shura’s “corpse”… it had just moved slightly…
