Chapter 560 The Situation In Peters City



Meanwhile, outside the Secret Realm...

It was already evening in Peters City, but thousands of people were still watching the situation around the central square in front of the Morning Star Academy.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ No young people had died so far, a record, since in previous editions of the Secret Realm, someone would always die on the first opening day. But not only this was stirring the spirits of the individuals following this event.

The situation for some competitors was also somewhat different from what one would normally see in other event editions.

For example, Lothur had collected nothing so far. But he had beaten at least 50 level 16 beasts, 300 level 15 beasts, and 500 level 14 beasts. These were astounding numbers that not even the most powerful youths who returned from the Secret Realms in other editions would have the chance to expose.

And because of this killing, which was not followed by resource absorption or item collection, everyone was curious about what Lothur was doing.

Usually, a young man like him would fight for the right over resources. But he was not demonstrating standard behavior. Instead, he just looked like a killing machine, creating rivers of bodies on his way inside the Secret Realm.

That was scaring Lothur\'s enemies in Peters City a bit!

\'What is this person doing?\' One of the Baier family members thought to himself as he watched for more deaths of powerful beasts entering Lothur\'s numbers. \'Is he trying to show his strength and make us fear him even more?\'

"Tsk! Arrogant wretch!"

But others were not so concerned about it.

Gomeric looked at the ranking of the Secret Realm, where Lothur was second only to Elke, who was surprisingly in first place at the moment.

Most young people who tried out for the Secret Realm were looking for each other to team up with or hunt down opponents. So only she was actually looking for resources to get stronger at this first moment.

Because of this, she was in the first place, while the one with the highest number of kills at the moment was behind her, followed by Viktoria and Larissa.

Gameric was pleased that his daughter was getting better and was not so worried about Lothur.

Whatever he was trying, it had to be for a good reason. Lothur was not the type to act unnecessarily. If he was doing this, he must have had something in mind that could benefit his allies, like this man.

But while Lothur\'s allies had only doubts about what he was after, many of those who didn\'t know much about him was changing their bets because of his strange attitude.

For many bettors, if Lothur was risking so much fighting such strong beasts, the chance that he would die was greater, so many were already placing bets on his death.

That was moving all of Peters City since he was not someone ordinary but the creator of the Ritter Motor Company and the local cars!

...

Meanwhile, the two Nascent Soul Transcendents were watching the preliminary results of the local sky, interested in Lothur\'s attitudes.

"What do you think he is doing?" The man asked the woman next to him.

"Hmm, well, I can\'t be sure. But I believe he is in for some kind of challenge or searching for something specific. That alone would explain him fighting so many opponents in such a short time." This level 17 woman said, watching the constant changes on the screen showing Lothur\'s results.

But while the two were watching this, someone nearby finally noticed their presence and approached them.

"Imperial Guards!" Luis said as he approached those two.

"Principal of the academy, what do you want?" The man in armor with the Leopoldine family symbol asked in a curious tone.

Luis promptly replied. "I am curious about the presence of two noble warriors of the empire in this city... Are you in search of something? Can I help you in any way?"

That woman looked at Luis and didn\'t hide what she wanted since no one in this city could stop her and her companion. "We are here under an imperial edict to capture Lothur Ritter."

"What?" The principal of the Morning Star Academy questioned in incomprehension.

"Lothur Ritter is a criminal wanted by Her Highness Lars Leopoldine. We are here to bring him to imperial justice."

"How can this be? Lothur is a genius who invented the first car! How can he be wanted for anything?" He questioned, more or less knowing the motivation of these people but asking anyway.

The level 17 man said as he closed his eyes. "We need no greater reason than His Highness\'s words. If he returns, we will send Lothur to the imperial prison."

\'Imperial prison?\' Luis thought about it, as he turned pale with concern for young Ritter.

The imperial prison was where high-level criminals and traitors to the empire were held to pay for their crimes or await imperial justice.

That place was full of 3rd stage criminals, people from various backgrounds, some even from outside the empire, those who tried to take advantage of the possibilities of this weaker place.

Some of those who tried this failed despite being powerful cultivators by local standards.

Because of the number of people trying to parasitize weaker states on the continent, the emperor built that place centuries ago.

Now foreigners and a few Leopoldine natives lived there, which, truth be told, was hell on earth.

The jailers usually had no control over the inside of the prison. They just kept the place impossible to escape from without worrying about maintaining the internal order of the prison.

So even keeping a criminal there waiting for justice could be considered a sign of a death sentence!

That was what worried Luis!

"The imperial prison is a bit much, don\'t you think?" He asked.

"We don\'t have to think anything, principal. We\'re just carrying out our orders." The woman said to him in a warning tone.

"Know that we have the authorization to arrest along with this Lothur any who stand in our way." The man added, causing Luis to back away.

\'Damn it!\' He thought about it as he turned away from those two, feeling that he had to inform the rest of Lothur\'s allies.

But not only that, as principal of the academy, he was a direct subordinate of the Leopoldine family. So he had to at least try to intervene in this situation to prevent things from getting out of hand and young Ritter being sent to that terrible place.

If Lothur were to enter the imperial prison, chances are he would never get out again!

So Luis rushed in to try to sort this out, while the rest of the powers acting in Peters City had no idea of the risk Lothur was taking!

But if some powers acting in the dead of night knew this, they would celebrate the future downfall of young Ritter.

That was the case for some allies of House Baier, who were about to start a joint action with this family.

"Everyone in place? Our plans will begin at dawn." Someone from the Vogel family said this inside his car, communicating with his allies around Peters City.

"Yes, we will destroy the Frost family before sunset the next day!" Another voice emerged from within that vehicle through the communication formation...
