Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3121

Petra nodded. "Alright, I'll keep watch over there and await your command!"

The Highland Tribe members were gradually brought into Abyss City. Settling so many people required considerable effort, but fortunately, no incidents occurred along the way.

Just like that, the entire Highland Tribe had entered the city. Leaving the valley to live in a major city in the Wastelands was extremely difficult for them to adjust to. However, given the critical circumstances and Tobiah's strict orders, no one from the Highland Tribe caused any trouble.

The desolate night fell over the Wastelands. The warfare during this period had grown increasingly fierce, and all the factions were utterly exhausted. Even the formidable Ludendorff family and the Cathedral's warriors felt waves of fatigue washing over them.

…

Inside Throne City, within the Throne Hall. The once bright lights that burned day and night were now dim. The yellow lamps remained unlit, and the entire hall was empty and silent, devoid of any sign of life.

Alonzo, the second-in-command of the Ludendorff family, sat alone in the main seat. He stared blankly into space for a long while.

The seat was forged from gold and shaped like a skull. It possessed a twisted, perverse metallic beauty that perfectly embodied the Ludendorff family's philosophy of ruling the Wastelands through fear.

"Well? Were you able to contact Lord Raiden?" Without lifting his head, Alonzo asked the subordinate who had just entered, his gaze still unfocused.

"Tell him the family is nearly finished, that Wyrmhelm's predictions were dead wrong, and that our family's century-old rule has been destroyed in an instant!"

The subordinate wore black armor and a black mask, kneeling on the ground. He was a commander of the Black Knight Legion, the Ludendorff family's elite military force.
