Chapter 436 Poisonous scheme (III)
Dark Mask's eyes were cold as he gazed at the members of the upper echelon of his faction. Without saying a word, he flew to the end of the hall and sat on a white throne, waving his hand to make the magma ceiling burn with heat even a Peak Wave King could not endure.
"We are to address the accusation of Old River against Silent Shadow for the charge of betrayal to the faction. Everybody take your positions."
Silent Shadow and Old River stood ten meters apart, each in front of a small podium, while the other Atroxs that were part of the jury stood on the left and right of Dark Mask's throne.

"Leader, allow me to express just how absurd this accusation is. I will never betray the faction which has done so much for me. Old River is a vengeful and spiteful old man who cannot get over the fact that I took a small treasure from him."
There was a charming smile on Silent Shadow's face as she glanced at Dark Mask with both lust and affection.
"Bitch. Due to your tricks and deception, I lost my entire family! You dare to say you only took a small treasure from me!"
Old River lost control for a moment as the rage in his heart was too immense, but before he could say another word, a powerful blue force field drowned him, making his body tremble.
"I will not allow disruption during the trial!"
Dark Mask's eyes were cold as he stared at Old River as if the man was a pest he could not wait to get rid of, hinting at how this trial would go. After almost pushing Old River to the ground, he dispersed his Ego Wave.
"Old River, present the evidence you have against Silent Shadow. If insufficient, you will be charged with wrongfully accusing an upper echelon member and dealt a proper punishment."
Dark Mask frowned as he saw how calm the old man was and could not help but feel that something was wrong. However, just as he was about to rise from his throne to question the man, his eyes turned to the Endless Poison Raven's corpse.
As an Apotheosis Realm Master, Dark Mask's perception was strong enough to notice how the cells of the Endless Poison Raven's corpse began to react in the presence of oxygen, growing volatile.
"Look out!"
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!"
Dark Mask tried to warn the other Atroxs, but it was too late as the corpse of the Grand King Beast exploded the next second. Being closer to Dark Mask and the six Late Wave King Atrox jurors, they took the worst of the blast.
The energy inside the body of a Grand King Beast was immense, and if all was used as an explosive, it could unleash a blast that could harm Peak Wave Kings, especially if the explosion was contained inside a closed space like the Dark Hall.
Dark Mask's face contorted due to the rage as icy wings covered his figure. He had activated his Holy Weapon just in time to protect himself from the blast and conjured an ice wall to defend the jurors.
Dark Mask was able to calm down when he saw that despite the power of the blast, his subordinates did not suffer any crippling injuries. Then his eyes burst with killing intent as he turned to Old River.
The fire did not last long, but a dark miasma covered the entire hall, making sight extremely complicated. However, that was not an impediment to the eyes of an Apotheosis Realm Master.
Since the explosive Grand King Beast's corpse failed to kill him and the others, Dark Mask expected to see Old River terrified, but the old man looked straight into his eyes with nothing but disdain and serenity.
Just as Dark Mask wondered about the reason for the old Atrox's confidence, his entire body trembled, and his knees gave in, forcing him to kneel. A feeling of nausea and weakness assaulted him, and his eyes widened as he stared at the dark miasma left after the explosion.
'Poison!'
