Chapter 337: Chapter 81: The Name of Black Wings
Victor made a detour at this moment, regretfully stating that this battle is not about the strength of basic warriors, but the lack of forces to counterbalance the Black Dragon Lord. If Taylor, the Sword Saint, is willing to join him against the Black Dragon Lord, then naturally, there would be no need to borrow Legendary Items.
The Beastman Sword Saint inevitably hesitated, because both sides have already signed a mutual alliance under the witness of their respective Divine Spirits. To repent now would not only offend the other side but also invoke divine punishment.
The divine side of the Divine Spirit often carries out tasks and operates according to pre-established rules, rather than personally dealing with these trivial matters.
The thoughts and information from countless planes in the Star Realm flood in, causing even a Divine Spirit to become distorted and lost within.
But if he joins Victor against the Black Dragon Lord... even Victor at the Legendary Second Tier has no confidence and needs to borrow Legendary Items from the Beastman Kingdom to cope with the Black Dragon Lord. As a Legendary Tier One, how could he dare?
Relying on the Legendary Greatsword?
Although Legendary Items can greatly enhance strength, Taylor’s own strength is fixed, and even if he unleashes the power of the Legendary Greatsword, he would barely exchange a few moves with Victor. Once the Energy is drained by the Greatsword, he would surely die.
Going in person carries extremely high risk; not going in person, but because of the alliance, requiring mutual advancement and retreat, inevitably requires contribution.
Under pressure from various sides, Taylor ultimately lent out the Legendary Greatsword, but to play it safe, he and Victor signed an additional contract regarding the borrowing and return of the Legendary Item.
As for this contract, Victor certainly dared not violate it.
But why did Victor mock Taylor, the Beastman Sword Saint, as foolish?
Because the latter never realized that Victor couldn’t defy a Divine Spirit’s witnessed contract, but he could ’resolve’ him.
"After calming the disturbances with the Black Wing Nest, find an opportunity to kill Taylor." A hint of coldness flashed in Victor’s eyes.
Then, returning the Legendary Greatsword?
Sure, he would return it. Tossing the Legendary Greatsword onto Taylor’s corpse, isn’t that a return?
After returning, the contract ends, and taking the Legendary Greatsword from the corpse... then it’s Victor’s own finding.
Taylor might have seen through this, but he probably didn’t expect such ruthlessness from his ally, Barbarian King Victor.
"Black Dragon Lord, I want to see how powerful you are to frighten that elf slut Denise like this." In Victor’s pupils, a flicker of brutality flashed.
He doesn’t intend to kill the Black Dragon Lord. Such a task is entirely thankless, and Victor isn’t that foolish.
Victor aims to teach the opponent a lesson and take the opportunity to coerce him into signing a contract.
...
Dragon Pool.
The massive Black Dragon was somewhat troubled.
"What exactly is the Legendary Truth...." Udi fell into contemplation.
Reaching the nineteen-level peak has been a few months, and during this time, besides digesting those Legendary corpses and cultivating Spiritual Martial Techniques and Magic, Udi spent considerable time pondering the Legendary Truth.
Yet, after months, he remains puzzled by the so-called Legendary Truth.
The Dragon’s Legacy offers various interpretations about the Legendary Truth.
Law Fragments, Mystical, World Operation Rules, and so on.
But explanations are just explanations. Udi is entirely unable to understand how to comprehend and grasp it.
Some things cannot be expressed and require personal insight.
For Udi, what he most dislikes is this unclear void, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.
However, even though he’s struggled in comprehending the Legendary Truth, his power continues to steadily grow with the ongoing Banquet.
Even if he never comprehends the Legendary Truth, relying on the Feast Talent, Udi can forge an alternative path.
Consequently, although trapped by the Legendary Truth, Udi doesn’t feel vexed and can calmly ponder.
Many incredibly gifted strong individuals have been stuck here for decades or even centuries. Udi has only spent a few months, why rush?
...
"Master, the Barbarian Royal Court declared war on us."
Maid Chief Sofia spoke softly.
Sofia’s voice brought Udi’s thoughts back to reality. He casually said,
"Hasn’t Shiji prepared for war long ago? Let the Black Wing Legion show itself before the various forces across the continent. When the Barbarian King can no longer bear it, I will naturally take action."
Udi doesn’t look down on the Barbarian Royal Court, but exercises caution.
Entering late allows better observation and prevents passivity. freёwebnovel.com
Entering first leads to extreme passivity as all actions are exposed, while hidden enemies can device various strategies against you.
Moreover, the Followers are trained to relieve the Master’s burdens.
"Yes." Receiving the command, Sofia nodded and withdrew, then informed Shiji who was waiting for the master’s news.
"Understood." Shiji grinned, a bloodthirsty light flashing in his eyes.
This time, he too would join the battle.
Though he always managed the Black Nest, don’t forget he climbed up and killed from the lowest ranks. freeweɓnøvel.com
One day later—
According to the weather indication, a heavy rain will arrive tonight.
Northern Wasteland.
This was once the Centaur’s base. Since the Centaur surrendered to the Black Wing Nest, only some involuntary, aimless wild monsters and demons remain.
