Chapter 245 The Requirement of the Highest Decision-Making Level

The Star Apostle's voice echoed throughout the silent cave.

As soon as he said this, the Gale Apostle and his followers' faces instantly darkened, the atmosphere became extremely tense, and the air seemed to freeze!

The Star Apostle's words were too lethal.

This was a huge accusation, and once it stuck, even if the Gale Apostle was a king in the ancient civilization, he wouldn't be able to get away with it!

Although the Earth Apostle also resided on Gale Island, she had lost her autonomy, and she was also the strongest of the major apostles, so no one dared to question her.

But the Gale Apostle was different.

He had complete autonomy, and after the destruction of the Tower of Babel, his followers were the fewest of the major races, making him the weakest!

Once this accusation stuck to his head, the consequences would be very, very serious!

"Star, you dare slander me!" The Gale Apostle finally exploded with rage. His sacred and perfect face was now twisted and gloomy. He stepped forward and grabbed the Star Apostle's white suit collar, roaring, "Are you saying... that I privately colluded with the enemy who destroyed my race's miracle building and killed a large number of my people?"

"This is an insult to me!"

"Do you want to start a full-scale war with me?"

The Gale Apostle roared, his body radiating a strong fighting spirit. This momentum crashed around like waves, making his followers unable to breathe.

But the Star Apostle, who was facing the Gale Apostle, seemed unaffected.

He still had that nonchalant smile on his face, and facing the Gale Apostle's rage, he remained very calm and said, "Don't be angry! This is just a guess of mine...

A guess that I can imagine, that is perhaps closest to the actual situation."

The Gale Apostle was even more furious. He grabbed the Star Apostle's collar tightly with both hands, pressed close to his face, and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Bullshit!"

"If you don't agree with my guess, please provide a perfect explanation." The Star Apostle said with a smile, "Please note, this is not a request... but a requirement!"

After saying this, the Star Apostle's attitude became tough, and he repeated again, "It is a requirement from the highest decision-making level of the entire ancient civilization!"

The Gale Apostle suddenly felt cold all over.

He knew very well what the Star Apostle meant by this.

The highest decision-making level's requirement...

That meant that besides the Star Apostle, the Ocean and Night Apostles already knew about this. So the Star Apostle finding this cave was not accidental, and the surprise he showed when he saw Grelle earlier was also a pretense...

He had known about the escape of these followers for a long time.

He was here to question him!

Moreover, the Ocean and Night Apostles held the same attitude as him!

The Gale Apostle slowly released his hands that were grabbing the Star Apostle's collar, and sneered as he took two steps back, asking, "So that's how it is! Where are Ocean and Night? Where are they now? Why don't they come out to see me?"

"They are at the entrance of the underground river channel outside the cave..." The Star Apostle pointed behind him and said, "You know, their sizes... are very large. If they barge in, they might mess up your secret base."

"We don't want to cause you any losses, so we hope you can cooperate with us as much as possible and come up with a reasonable explanation. After all, we are companions of the same civilization... We don't want any deception or concealment between us!"

The Gale Apostle's face was full of mocking sneers.

"I'm very curious, my followers escaped, and I only just received the news. How did you know about it?"

The Star Apostle raised his eyebrows, and after a moment, said, "A mech warrior belonging to Gale Island accidentally entered my territory while searching for your followers. We intercepted information from its memory chip."

The Gale Apostle was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed loudly, "Accidentally entered your territory? Your miracle building is in the northern part of the Extreme Abyss, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from the sea area where the ship transporting my followers crashed!"

"Do you really think that Li Tianran would let his mech warrior search in such a distant sea area for some targets that had long disappeared?"

"Even a pig can see that Li Tianran deliberately let the mech warrior reveal this news to you! This is his scheme, this is a trap!"

The Gale Apostle pointed at the Star Apostle's chest, saying each word carefully, "I don't believe you can't see such a simple problem."

The Star Apostle was silent for a long time, then spoke again, "This explanation won't work!"

The Gale Apostle finally reacted.

What the Star Apostle, the Ocean and Night Apostles wanted was not a reasonable explanation about this matter. They themselves had come to target the Gale Apostle, so no matter what the Gale Apostle said, they would selectively ignore it.

It was like "you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep."

"What if I refuse to explain to you?" The Gale Apostle sneered, "What will you do? Will you kill me? Kill me, the king who has lost the miracle building... kill your companion?"

"We are companions, we always will be. No matter what happens, we will not attack you proactively." The Star Apostle shook his head and sighed in a very regretful tone, "If you refuse to provide an explanation for this matter, then we have no choice but to find out the truth ourselves."

After saying this, the Star Apostle's body abruptly turned into a line of fire, instantly appearing next to Grelle, who was trying to repair his damaged body.

He grabbed Grelle's neck with his white palm and slowly lifted him up, his eyes full of gentle smiles, and whispered, "Grelle, you are a personal witness to this event, you must know a lot of inside information, right?"

"Tell me, what is the truth of this matter?"

"Li Tianran, why exactly did he let you escape?"
Grelle was grabbed by the neck by the Star Apostle and lifted up like a chick. His face was flushed and the veins on his forehead were bulging: "The course of events is just as our king described, this is a conspiracy!"

After listening to Grelle's words, a trace of disappointment appeared on the Star Apostle's face: "Grelle, I hope you can tell me the truth... Even if Li Tianran really reached some agreement with your clan, we won't be angry about it."

"After all, we have lived together for countless eras. It is completely forgivable for a companion to make a mistake once in a while!"

"As long as you admit it, we will embrace you with a broad mind and forgive you!"
