After Argus was laid to waste, Adam dragged the wounded Cordovin through the streets. Cordovin watched as all who survived the initial slaughter being rounded up. She watched as countless of her troops were gunned down. Soon enough, Adam dragged Cordovin to the Pyrrha Nikos Memorial Park where a crowd of Faunus were gathered around the statue of the late Pyrrha Nikos. Standing next to the statue was HK-47 and Penny along with Samanya and the Sword of the Faunus. The crowd of Faunus expressed their anger at Cordovin as they screamed at her. Ironically, it was Adam Taurus that was keeping the crowd from lunging at Cordovin and tearing her apart. Adam soon tosses Cordovin before the stature of Pyrrha Nikos. HK-47 and Penny grabbed Cordovin and restrained her. Adam then turns to the crowd.
Adam: Brothers and sisters! As of this moment, you have been liberated!
The crowd erupts in a thunderous applause for Adam. To them, Adam was a hero who had come to liberated them. Adam then glances over to Cordovin who showed no emotion on her face. He then turns his attention over to the statue.
Adam: How many of our brothers and sisters slaved away to build this statue? Such craftsmanship could only have been built by Faunus hands.
Adam then turns to the crowd.
Adam: This place was the last holdout of the Atlesian Military. The last holdout to the face of human oppression. But with this city under our control, the Atlas Military is now wiped from the face of Atlas. But the struggle is far from over. There are still enemies who threaten everything we stand for! There are those who seek to destroy us! But we will triumph because we are more than just an army! We are a force of nature! Look upon this statue! Our blood, sweat and tears built this statue of this false idol! That is why we will triumph! Together, we are a force of nature! Together, we are strong!
Adam then raised his fist in the air, earning him thunderous applause from the the crowd.
Adam: This woman thought she could destroy us. She rounded up our brethren and locked them in camps! She sought to enslve us! Look what her arrogance has brought her. Now she will face justice! She will face Faunus justice!
As the crowd cheered for Adam, he looked upon Cordovin. She maintained her emotionless stare at Adam. She said nothing as Adam knelt to speak with her.
Adam: The Atlas Military is gone. The force that has oppressed the Faunus for decades is no more. Everything you have built has now been taken away.
Cordovin: Then what are you waiting for? Finish it already, you bastard!
Adam: With pleasure, Cordovin.
Adam then walks to the statue of Pyrrha Nikos. He remembered her being a Huntress of exceptional skill until her death during the Fall of Beacon. Adam then proceeds to use his Wilt Sword in tandem with his Moonslice Semblance to cut the statue down. As the statue of Pyrrha Nikos was shattered, Adam walked over to the replica of Pyrrha's sword which was twice his size. He then picks up the stone sword and glances over to Cordovin.
Adam: For too long, the humans thought themselves to be untouchable. You thought you were untouchable. The Schness thought they were untouchable. Ironwood thought he was untouchable. But I have proven time and time again that no one is untouchable. Now you will meet the same fate as all the others.
Adam then nods to HK-47 and Penny who prepare Cordovin for the execution. Without hesitation, Adam thrusts the stone sword into Cordovin's body. He then hoists Cordovin up. Cordovin began screaming in pain as her body slowly slid down the stake. Cordovin's screams were drowned out by the cheering of the crowd. Adam watched as Cordovin was impaled. He left her impaled body to hang as an example to those who would dare defy him.
Adam: BROTHERS AND SISTERS! OUR VICTORY IS AT HAND! WITH THE LAST OF THE ATLAS MILITARY WIPED OUT, NO FORCE ON REMNANT CAN CHALLENGE US! JOIN US AS WE BRING ABOUT A FORCE OF CHANGE! THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE FAUNUS TO TAKE THEIR PLACE AS THE DOMINANT SPECIES! THE TIME HAS COME FOR US TO BREAK OUR CHAINS AND BECOME FREE! SOON, ALL OF REMNANT WILL FALL BEFORE THE MIGHT OF THE WHITE FANG EMPIRE! SOON, ALL SHALL KNEEL BEFORE THE FAUNUS! GLORY TO THE CAUSE! LONG LIVE THE WHITE FANG EMPIRE!
Crowd: LONG LIVE THE WHITE FANG EMPIRE! LONG LIVE THE WHITE FANG EMPIRE! LONG LIVE THE WHITE FANG EMPIRE!
Samanya/Sword Of The Faunus: LONG LIVE THE WHITE FANG EMPIRE!
Penny: Statement: Long live the White Fang Empire!
HK-47: Statement: Long live the White Fang Empire.
With that, all the Faunus in Argus joined the White Fang Empire. All the remaining Argus soldiers were impaled the same as Cordovin. By the time the White Fang Empire left, Argus was filled with the impaled corpses of all those who dared stand against the White Fang Empire. Argus would soon become known as the City of the Impaled. Once more, the White Fang Empire conquered another city. And with this victory, the Atlas Military was at last wiped out. But Adam knew that this war was far from over. But with the fall of Argus, Adam Taurus and the White Fang Empire were one step closer to total victory.
