The crowd made way for them to pass. However, this mysterious person paused a slight bit beside Lenny,
And then the voice came like an ethereal whisper, low but inviting, "Finally, I have found you, my love."
Lenny's brows instantly knitted together.
He turned in a quick reflex, but the mysterious person walked away, not saying another word.
Without wasting time, he activated it.
*SURVEYOR
Lenny frowned. This person's name was revealed.
But the person's stats were hidden.
He really hated it when he could not see the stats of people.
It really made surveyor seem like a useless skill.
Now that he thought about it, he really needed to upgrade it.
Nevertheless, that was an issue for another time.
For now, he would have to settle for just the name Morgana.
Not that he had ever seen this person before or had any association with this person, but he could tell that yet again, trouble was knocking at his peaceful abode, a curse that he had to agree was impossible for him to get rid of.
Meanwhile, both Agnes and Vine, watching from their seats, watched Morgana with their own intent in their eyes.
"Next!" Zod called out, and the next person stepped forward.
This person's color also came out blue in the crystal. However, after Morgana's impressive feat, it no longer looked impressive.
Even the person could not be glad after seeing their limit.
After all, it was a reminder that he would never surpass the one that came out red.
After this person, another two fellows were unfortunate enough to blow up again, once again reminding everyone that being alive was good enough.
Surprisingly, the reason for one of them blowing up was because he tried to cheat by secretly using a magical artifact to increase the magic output and quality.
Naturally, his death served as a warning that cheating was not possible before the abilities of the primordial beast.
Many came and went, and as one would expect, most came out as yellow, with a few as green.
Of course, that all changed the moment it was Riff's turn.
The moment he stepped forward, all eyes were focused on him.
By now, the rumors surrounding Riff had long gone about the entire city.
He was the red man who destroyed the giant octopus that was at the deep demon level.
That octopus was so strong that it had killed many guards at the gate and even succeeded in destroying a part of the towering wall.
Many of the fighters here could not help but swallow hard at the thought of the kind of strength that he possessed.
Meanwhile, Curtin was by Riff's side, elegantly dressed with a broad smile on his face.
He carried the confidence of someone who had already won the position of Alpha.
On seeing him walk forward, even Zod had a flattering smile on his face.
He nodded like a pecking chicken at Curtin.
Riff stepped forward, his every step heavy, and his muscles taunted hard like steel, evidently a sneak peek of the explosive strength that he was hiding beneath.
This was a man with capabilities beyond human comprehension.
Gently, he placed a hand on the crystal.
The result of which did not even take the crowd by surprise.
It came out as an instant red, shining brightly and wildly.
Zod nodded, "as expected of Mr. Riff, the savior of the City of Milk and Honey. Zod turned to Curtin, Congratulations, Curtin."
Curtin laughed loudly, and then he turned to the crowd, "Let me tell you all. I, Curtin, am destined by the very heavens to become Alpha of this Great Shadow Werewolf Pack."
He laughed wildly again, and some guards even clapped their hands in cheer for him.
He waved his hands to those who cheered for him before walking down.
"Next!" Zod called again, and it was finally their turn.
Unsurprisingly, this caught the attention of Agnes and Vine.
Both of whom looked on closely.
Although most people were not interested in this, some others, like Morgana and even Curtin, were interested in the results.
For Curtin, he was interested because the previous day, when he had stepped forward to claim Riff and Agnes as his guests, Victor had also stepped forward, and he had claimed Lenny, Perseus, and Lady Vinegar to be his guests.
Although Riff was obviously stronger, Curtin could not help but remember Lenny's feat while fighting the octopus.
Like many, he had watched the fight that was happening from a safe distance. But he had still seen Lenny fight, and he had to admit that it was nothing like he had ever seen in his life.
Especially because Victor stood up for Lenny, Curtin had to watch out for him.
Although the pattern by which the Alpha was chosen was quite unique within this pack, it did not blind Curtin to the fact that Victor was born with the purest bloodline in the history of the pack.
After all, the purer the bloodline, the easier it was for one to get great benefits from the primordial beast.
Even Curtin knew that there were still people who sided with him who actually wanted to side with Victor as a result of those benefits. Some of which was a direct increase in cultivation.
Such an attraction was difficult for even him to suppress.
For this reason, he was interested in seeing the results that would be produced.
Knowing that it was their turn, Lenny could not help but think hard in his head.
He tried to think of a solution that could help him out of this mess.
But his brain came up with nothing.
Victor had already stepped forward, Lenny had not.
In his mind, he was already contemplating whether he should request an artifact from the Satan System, but he immediately dismissed that idea.
This primordial beast was strong enough to bind him, and even the Satan system said that it currently did not have enough power to remove the binding.
Lenny knew for certain that if he cheated, he was going to join the blood stew of marsh meat under his feet...
