Chapter 2988 Countdown to Execution

Since neither I nor Inanna are willing to manage this lunatic asylum, and the residents of Udinos are also unwilling to act as slaves bound by spiritual shackles, why not simply disband the Demon Eye Nest City and let the beholders live according to their own wishes , each other can get relief, wouldn't it be better?

If this is really done, Joan feels that Saoirse may be the only one who will be sad in the entire Magic Eye Nest City.

If the mental state of a normal person is used as the standard, Saoirse is the most sane among the beholders in the city.

However, taking the mental state of the beholder as a frame of reference, Saoirse is the number one "lunatic" in this madhouse.

Poor Prime Minister, you are like a slave who fell in love with a concentration camp, or a lunatic who fell in love with an insane asylum. Other beholders wanted to break free from the shackles and escape from the insane asylum, but she refused to accept a life without shackles.

Even the "Mad Dean" Ishtar left, she still insisted on staying, like a knight rushing towards a windmill, stubbornly trying to maintain order in the madhouse.

Joan sighed, put down his worries about Udinos' prospects for the time being, and let's solve the immediate problem first.

"Lord Saoirse, ring the alarm bell again, and call for all the warlords and nobles to gather at the council square."

"Mitra, do you want to give them another chance?" Saoirse asked knowingly.

"This is the last chance. If they still refuse to recognize the reality, they can't blame me." Joan turned to look at her adopted daughter, and said lightly, "Inanna, start the timer."

"Okay, father...uh, my lord mother!"

Inanna changed her words temporarily, stuck out her tongue with a shy smile, stuck out a stalk, and took out a small alarm clock made of iron and wood from the storage bag, twisted it a few times, and set the timer for an hour.

The pendulum is ticking, and the hands are turning slowly.

Not long after, half an hour passed, and during this period, many beholder nobles rushed from their respective territories to the council square to gather.

After waiting for a while, "Perfect Discipline" Ayesha and "Immortal Amiretta" showed up. The two warlords each had more than a dozen beholder nobles, and they rushed to gather together.

The one-hour time limit expired, and there were still three warlords and the beholder nobles under their control, who had not yet arrived.

"Mother, the time limit is up!" Inanna put away the clock.

Saoirse took out the communication crystal from the storage bag and asked Joan: "Howarda, Mana, and Kessandra haven't responded yet. Do you want to send them a letter to ask questions?"

Joan shook his head lightly, turned around and floated towards the stone table displayed in the center of the council hall.

There is a crystal ball with a gold base on the stone table. When Joan saw Ishtar for the first time, the Beholder Queen used this crystal ball as a magic weapon to cast the legendary magic "Eye of Heaven". Casting a spell remotely, he killed many mind flayers hiding outside the city of Udinos in one go.

Joan hovered above the throne that belonged to Ishtar, poked out an eye stalk, touched the smooth and cold crystal ball, injected 40 degrees of legendary magic power, and activated the "Heaven's Eye" amidst the exclamation of the beholders onlookers.

Immediately afterwards, Joan publicly demonstrated the detection skills that even Ishtar had never demonstrated before. He divided the mirror image projected by the crystal ball on the table into three equal parts, and locked them on the three warlords who refused to respond to the assembly order. His eyes swept over the three ugly faces one by one who were complacent and didn't know that death was coming.

"Ambar!"

In the silent hall, only the spell announcing "destruction" reverberated, like an invisible heavy hammer hitting the hearts of the beholders, scaring them so much that they didn't dare to breathe.

Joan calmly completed the casting ceremony of the 9th-level "Implosion" spell, stretched out three eye stalks, and put an X on the heads of the three warlords reflected in the crystal ball.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three warlords, who were sentenced to death by Joan, had their heads exploded one after another by the magic power poured into their bodies, and the splashed blood flooded the vision of the "Eye of Heaven".

"Flawless Howarda", die!

"Mana of Philosophy", die!

"Xessandra the Authority", die!

The dull roar that came out at the moment of the headshot was transmitted to the council hall through the crystal ball, and echoed in the empty room for a long time.

After executing the three warlords, Joan said to Saoirse and Inanna without changing his face:

"Ring the bell, time."

Inanna's small handmade alarm clock started ticking again.

This time, after waiting for less than half an hour, the rest of the beholders in the city rushed to the council hall.

The beholder nobles under Howarda, Mana, and Kessandra witnessed the brutal execution of the warlords they were following. The horror scene of the head burst reminded them of Ishtar's usual methods, and thought that Her Majesty the Queen returned to Udi North, all frightened out of their wits, hurried to see him.

When they came to the council hall, they realized that it was not Ishtar who was on the throne, but Mitra, the "Magic Eye Arcanist" who had been missing for a long time, and the panic in their eyes was replaced by confusion.

Joan didn't want to be too lazy, counted the number of people, confirmed that the nobles in the city had arrived, then turned around and flew out the door, took back the "Branch of Irmin Sur", and called the Colossus of Gold to come and wait.

Saoirse and Inanna followed closely behind her.

The rest of the warlords and the beholders looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't dare to delay, and floated out one after another.

Witnessing Mitra executing Havada, Mana, and Xsandra with a wave of hands in the manner of Ishtar, all the beholder nobles present regarded this beholder arcanist as the new leader of Udinos. Her Majesty.

Although Mitra does not have the "mythical control" that directly dominates their will, the psychological deterrence it causes to them is no less than that of Ishtar.

Joan ordered the Colossus of Gold to open the chest hatch, turned around and said to Saoirse and the others:

"The traitor Almati colluded with the mind flayers to create a commotion in the city, which shows that Udinos has fallen into internal and external difficulties."

"The execution of Almati, Howarda, Mana, and Kessandra is just to eliminate the internal worries of Udinos. Now I am going to Odes to deal with foreign troubles. Who wants to go with me? Welcome to join tonight's hunting."

"My lord, you must take me with you!"

Inanna flew up excitedly, and was the first to get into the hatch of the Colossus.

"Count me in." Saoirse smiled and floated into the cabin.

The rest of the beholders hesitated for a while, and followed the prime minister, entering the cabin one after another, including the only two remaining warlords in the city—Aysha and Amiretta.

All the beholders entered the cabin of the colossus. Joan waved his eye stalks to signal Inanna to close the hatch, and landed on the broad shoulders of the adamantine colossus alone. The remote control colossus activated "Myth Teleportation", accompanied by a beam of light soaring into the sky.

Three seconds later, the adamantine colossus carried its master and the beholders to the soul-absorbing city of Odes.

Tonight's hunt begins here!
