Village Head's Debauchery-Novel

Chapter 700 Unmasking The Traitor

?"Yes. Fortunately, it was real," Seig affirmed, nodding his head. "So rather than fighting, we decided to do the only thing we could and willingly surrender."

Hearing his words, Stronghold Leader Zogar raised a brow. He narrowed his eyes at Seig and Evadne, scrutinizing their figures to see if he had miscalculated their strengths.

Seig noticed the probing gaze of Stronghold Leader Zogar and looked at him with a smirk.

"That's everything I know about the information related to the Four-eared Elves conflict," Seig said, shifting his attention towards the Village Chief.

The Village Chief nodded in response. "Apart from the 'Four-eared Lone Rabbit' Runaway City and the 'The Sleeping Fox' Runaway City, how many Runaway Cities are there? And what are they?" the Village Chief asked, his questioning eyes fixed on Seig.

After learning about the Runaway Cities, the Village Chief wanted a detailed explanation of what they were.

"I'm not certain about the exact number, but I've heard there are fewer than a hundred Runaway Cities. As for their current count, I'm unsure of that," Seig explained, shaking his head.

"As for what they are, Runaway Cities are massive moving shelters capable of housing enormous populations, each with their own distinct culture, population, and way of living. Depending on their grade, these cities are mostly constructed from special ores or metal scraps. A grade 1 Runaway City can house anywhere from 700,000 to 3 million individuals and has a territory spanning about 114,780 kilometres (71.9 miles)."

"A grade 2 Runaway City accommodates a minimum of 4 million to 10 million individuals and has a territory of about 344,350 kilometres (213.75 miles). However, I can't provide information about grade 3 Runaway Cities, as my knowledge of them is limited," Seig added.

After Seig finished his explanation, a contemplative expression appeared on the Village Chief's face.

Currently, the Prismerion race has the highest population, totalling about 1.8 million. Despite their diverse range of techniques, their physical strength falls somewhat short. However, their status is bolstered by the presence of the Crystalforge elite warriors, allowing them to hold their own among the Village warriors.

In contrast, the Four-eared elves, with a population of approximately 100,000, possess the least physical prowess within the city despite some individuals being adept at controlling the Vylkr energy.

On the other hand, they were the minority group, numbering around 1,500 individuals, and held the most power and authority within the territory. Despite their smaller population size, they maintain dominance.

Despite Orion's close ties with the Prismerions, the Village Chief held no concerns about them or the Four-eared elves surpassing their authority. His confidence stemmed from the Village's rapidly expanding population, with births occurring even as they spoke.

Moreover, they were the sole warriors naturally capable of using Vylkr energy, further solidifying their influence.

Nonetheless, when he first learned about the Runaway Cities, he knew they were special. However, after hearing Seig's words, he understood that he might have underestimated how special they were.

This was especially true considering the possibility of several more capable individuals like Seig or others who were even more formidable than him who might as well be capable of entering a form like the Vylkr warrior mode as they wished.

Stronghold Leader Zogar and Seth couldn't help but ponder deeply after hearing Seig's words. They also understood the implications of what would occur if the Runaway cities crossed paths with the Village. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Noᴠᴇꜰɪre.nᴇt

Regardless, they all tucked this information away in the back of their minds, preparing themselves for when the time comes.

A momentary silence enveloped the air as they all processed the words they had just heard, arranging their thoughts properly.

"One more question," the Village Chief said. "I also want to know if there is any traitor among Patriarch Rylan and his group?"

Seig frowned upon hearing the Village Chief's question. He hadn't expected to be asked such a probing question.

Nevertheless, Seig shook his head in response. "Unfortunately, I don't know if there is a traitor within the—" Seig began, but before he could continue, the Village Chief's resounding voice thundered through the hall, cutting him off.

"ENOUGH! According to Patriarch Rylan's words, during his escape with the remaining members of his race, you managed to locate them again and again, even when they were sure that they had lost you. So it's either you had a way to find them whenever they got lost, or you had someone leading you towards their location. Which one is it?" the Village Chief asked.

Of course, none of this was originally his concern. However, with the Four-eared elves now residing within the Cities, it became his responsibility to find out who among them would willingly betray their own kind, potentially leading them to the brink of extinction.

Considering their past actions, there was no telling what they might do in the future, endangering the safety of Orion's cities and the Village.

A deep frown etched across Seig's face as he furrowed his brows in contemplation.

After a few moments of intense thought, he heaved a heavy sigh and nodded in acknowledgement. "Yes, you are correct. There is indeed a traitor among the Four-eared elves, someone who helped track their location whenever we lost sight of them," he confessed.

The Village Chief's piercing gaze bore into Seig. "And who is this person?" he asked.

"His name is Ronan, one of the gods' chosen from the last remaining unit of the Four-eared elves," Seig replied, his voice heavy with resignation.

"In exchange for the lives of his wife and unborn child, he left trails for us to follow, leading us towards the Four-eared elves' boats whenever we lost track of them," he explained.

The Village Chief nodded thoughtfully, his mind racing as he noted the name, attempting to recall who Ronan was among the gods' chosen. However, given that he wasn't yet familiar with all of the gods' chosen, he couldn't place him.

Even the two Stronghold Leaders paid close attention to the name, making a mental note to ascertain Ronan's identity among Patriarch Rylan's group.

"Alright, tell us about the Sanctuary," the Village Chief pressed.
