Chapter 248: The Tribute Is Ready

It was in the brief moment when Prince Bent's heart had stilled that his pupils suddenly contracted.

Beside him, Reith also sensed something.

The next moment—

Boom!

A massive column of light, carrying an indescribable suppression, thunderously descended before them. In that instant, Prince Bent, including Reith and even the carefully selected "Guard of Honor," all subconsciously knelt to the ground.

Without exception!

Prince Bent didn't even understand what had happened, as if some grand presence had arrived!

Only when the column of light disappeared did the feeling gradually fade.

But it didn't completely disperse; rather, it clearly lingered on the ground before them, proving to everyone that what had happened was no illusion.

Under these circumstances, all of Prince Bent's preparations, all his predictions, were destroyed in an instant.

He somewhat blankly raised his head, seemingly unable to come back to his senses.
