Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 352 Hell’s trump card

Dragon Kingdom.

Bang!
With a crisp sound, He took the initiative to destroy the fog mirror in front of Hei Yu. He looked at the Dragon Princess with a gloomy look and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, now you should understand whose conspiracy everything that happened today originated from, right?"

The Dragon Queen nodded and glanced at the foggy mirror that gradually turned into black smoke. A hint of resentment flashed in her vertical pupils, and her small palms clenched tightly unconsciously.

"The Sorcerer Kingdom, Black Sword... I didn't expect them to do such a crazy thing in order to destroy cooperation!"

In order to defeat the Soul Eater, nearly half of the 10,000 flying dragon knights trained by the entire Dragon Kingdom, which had spent a lot of money and material resources, were killed or injured. The entire royal capital also suffered serious damage. After she returned, she had to find a way to resettle these dragon knights. A large number of refugees were generated during the first crusade against the Soul Eater.

It is conservatively estimated that the number of people who died due to the impact of the Soul Eater's souls is at least 30,000, not counting the soldiers and residents who were crushed to death by houses and ruins.

Not only did they suffer heavy casualties, but they also lost the country's artifact, the Colorful Crown. It can be said that although the Soul Eater was killed, the Dragon Queen was not happy at all now.

"Sorry, Your Excellency Sage, I actually doubted your motives before. Regarding cooperation, the Dragon Kingdom has no objections now. We will send more than half of our troops to assist you in attacking the Sorcerous Kingdom!"

"In that case, I'll take my leave first. Her Majesty the Queen must have a lot of trivial matters to deal with now."

"If that's all you want to say, then just shut up."

but……

The other party didn't even bother to pretend. He almost invited the Dragon Queen to leave the Holy Land, and then directly sent people to steal the colorful crown and release the Soul Eater.

"Yes, the limit! Why do you think our actions in the Dragon Kingdom have turned out like this?"

He admitted that when he heard Heijian say the words "free lunch", his mentality was indeed a little unbalanced.

"Tsk tsk, free lunch, have you been completely treated as a fool?"

I spent so much time thinking about how to win over the Dragon Queen in a way that maximized profits, but the other party just used a skeleton to destroy it.

"And why do you think he must take away the colorful crown?"

"That's true, but haven't you ever thought about why Black Sword only chose to prevent us from joining forces with the Dragon Kingdom, but not from our cooperation with the Bahas Empire? In other words, did he really take away the Colorful Crown? Is it to prevent us from cooperating with the Dragon Kingdom?"

"Because that guy from Black Sword tricked you completely and made you pay directly to your grandma's house."

"Maybe, I was indeed a little unbalanced just now, but now that I think about it, this failure may not be without benefits. At least, we have successfully grasped the limit that can make the Black Sword fearful."

"limit?"

After walking a certain distance, Xiekuang looked at Nether Prison, whose face was as sinking as water, and said in a joking tone.

Hell Hell glanced at Xie Kuang, who was not far away and had suppressed the backlash of his blood energy and had returned to his normal appearance. He nodded slightly at the Dragon Queen twice and said nothing more, turning around and joining Xie Kuang. left.

The Underworld Warden took out a breath, glanced at Xie Kuang beside him, and said.

——Coupled with that sentence, the other party's attitude was completely mocking everything he did.

Hades did not speak, but his eyelids drooped slightly, allowing the evil man to sneer and mock.

"What, you're so angry?"

"Think about it carefully, didn't Black Sword calculate that even if he released the Soul Eater, he wouldn't be able to stop the cooperation? But he still did it, which means that preventing cooperation is not the real purpose at all. Combined with our Judging from what happened, his true intention from beginning to end was probably just to take away the colorful crown."

Hell took a deep breath, a faint light flashed across his dark pupils, and said in a deep voice.

Xie Kuang shrugged and said in an indifferent tone.

"This, do you mean...!"

Xiekuang's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard Nether Prison's words, as if he had also reacted to something.

"That's right, Black Sword doesn't want us to hold the Seven-Colored Crown, or in other words, he judged that if we let the Dragon Kingdom continue to hold the Seven-Colored Crown, it would probably pose a threat to him, so he used this method to seize it. Walk!"

"Wait a minute, are you being too arbitrary? Maybe he just wants to sabotage your action?"

"Then why did we never see him take action when we were in the Bahas Empire? With his mind, he should be able to see at a glance that the role of the Bahas Empire in this war is greater than the cooperation with the Dragon Kingdom. "much more"

"This……"

"It's very simple, because whether it is the Bahas Empire or the Dragon Kingdom, the military power of these two countries does not pose any threat to Black Sword at all. The only thing that really threatens him from beginning to end is the Colorful Crown, or Talk about...the Dragon Queen who can rely on the colorful crown to use the original magic at no cost!"

"And this is the limit of Black Sword's strength! This time I did lose miserably to him, but he also showed the specific level of his strength."

"If my guess is correct, the current Black Sword is probably only slightly stronger than the second-order overlord unit, and not as outrageous as the guy we saw before."

"You mean that recorder...no, no, no, no, I almost got you involved. What do you mean by being only slightly stronger than the second-order overlord-level unit?!"

Xie Kuang was slightly startled when he heard Nether Prison's sonorous and powerful words, but then he immediately reacted and cursed loudly:
"Isn't that the standard level of external strength? The one that can knock the two of us to the ground with one hand. Is this any different from what you said before?!"

A second-order overlord-level unit. Xiekuang had witnessed this kind of thing once before. It was when he was conducting a first-level assessment. The monster at that time treated a group of second-order leader-level creatures as chickens directly in front of him. He swallowed them all in one mouthful.

It was that time that Xie Kuang understood that even if they were both BOSS-level units, the gap between the overlord unit and the leader-level unit could not be described by a simple gap.

——That is a chasm, an absolute gap in class that cannot be bridged no matter what!
But now, each one of the hells is only slightly stronger than the second-level overlord unit. If it were not bound by the contract, Xie Kuang even wanted to press the head of the hell and stuff it into the water tank to wash it and take a look at him. Is your mind still awake?

"Then, what about the overlord unit? Haven't you seen monsters more terrifying than that?"

Ming Yu said calmly. When Xie Kuang heard this, a flash of memory flashed across his pupils, and he fell silent. After a long while, he spoke:

"This thing is not based on such an algorithm. I admit that the Black Sword may be a little weaker than the monster called the Recorder we encountered before. After all, he will be afraid of Siyuan's magic, and that monster is probably not interested in this kind of thing at all. We have a cold, but that has nothing to do with the fact that the black sword can knock us to the ground and beat us."

"Besides, now that the colorful crown has been lost, our only way to threaten the Black Sword is gone. Or do you want to persuade that little Loli queen to sacrifice millions of living people to activate the origin of magic? I remember that you probably haven’t learned any charm abilities.”

Xie Kuang calmed down his thoughts, looked at Hades in front of him who still showed no sign of timidity, sighed helplessly and said:
"After all, aren't you defeated now? My blood rage has been forced out, your death words have also been used, leaving only a Soul Eater who has just been transformed into an undead and a few pictures, which are not enough to look at in front of others. trump card, plus a large group of ordinary soldiers, you really think you have won with this kind of lineup..."

"When did I say that the original magic mastered by the Dragon Queen is our only way to threaten the Black Sword?"

Before Xie Kuang could finish speaking, Hades interrupted the other party's words with an indifferent tone, and clapped his hands lightly at the same time. Buzz—!
A jet-black light emerged from under his feet and turned into a huge black magic circle, forming an airtight light curtain that enveloped the surrounding area tens of meters high.

Immediately afterwards, dark curtains of light began to emerge from the ink-like ground. Xie Kuang looked at the coffins in front of him, his pupils shrank suddenly, and there was a look of disbelief in his eyes, and he murmured :

"How is it possible? Hasn't Overlord's world been suppressed to the second and semi-open level? Why..."

"The world of Overlord has indeed been suppressed to the level of LV.26, but this is not absolute. Do you know what the identity setting of the Black Sword is like in the Sorcerous Kingdom?"

Hell Prison said with a smile. Looking at the scene in front of him, the appearance of the coffin in the middle was reflected in his pupils, and he said slowly:
"I took the initiative to use items that lowered my level, causing myself to fall into a deep sleep. I finally woke up at a level that allowed me to move freely in this world."

"Haven't you ever thought that maybe this thing...is not just a simple setting?"

"You don't really think that I didn't do anything when I left the last world, do you?"

Gulu~!
The sound of swallowing saliva was heard. Xie Kuang looked at the scene in front of him, calmed down, put away the shock in his eyes, took a deep breath, looked at Hell, and said:
"Since you have this trump card, why didn't you just use it when you fought the Soul Eater?"

"It's very simple. It's not necessary. The Dragon Kingdom's operation will fail. I had already considered it when I went to the Bahas Empire."

Hades narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at the coffin that sank back into the dark circle in front of him, and said unhurriedly:

"It's just that it failed so completely, which is indeed a bit beyond my expectation, but that's good. At least now we have completely figured out where the upper limit of Black Sword's strength is."

"The value of this piece of information alone, let alone losing the colorful crown, is still worth it even if the Dragon Princess is packaged and given to him."

"You sound like you are not afraid of her Origin Magic at all. Is it possible that you can withstand the soul-killing effect of that one?"

Xie Kuang listened to Ning Yu's confident speech and asked in return. Ning Yu smiled slightly, moved his gaze to the east, and said:
"Now, I really have no way to kill him with the Origin Magic, but that's only for now."

As Hei Yu spoke, he stretched out his palm and took out something from the storage space. Seeing this, Xie Kuang shrank his pupils slightly and said in disbelief:
"Hey, hey, could this be..."

"Well, it's what you're thinking of. The legendary equipment that doesn't exist in this human continent at this point in time. The key that allows people to pass through the barrier of the sandstorm zone and enter the central continent - the Windless Orb."

"This is why I said the defeat of the Dragon Kingdom was worthwhile, because from the beginning, I never expected to rely on these human kingdoms to defeat the Black Sword. All the previous things were just a trick to deceive him. .”

"Only if he really thinks that we intend to defeat him with the help of the human kingdom can we make the next step easier."

"——Go to the central continent and seize the national treasures of the six central countries, six pieces of...unowned world-class equipment!"

……

Qazi Plain, underground palace.

"So...Boss Black Sword, is all this happening today really just a coincidence?"

Dotian looked at Xin Lailai in front of him, recalling what Xin Lailai had just said in his mind, blinked his eyes, and asked suspiciously.

"Do you think there is any need for me to deceive you?"

Feeling the suspicious looks cast by several people, Xin Lailai sighed helplessly:
"In the final analysis, it's actually because the other party's luck is really bad. Such a small chance of coincidence happened to hit them."

To be honest, he is now curious about what the lucky value of Hades is?
Although his luck value is indeed not low, it is like a slap in the face that can't make a difference. He has no intention of torturing Hades. Logically speaking, even if a small probability event occurs, he should not focus on Hades alone. The wool is just right.

According to his speculation, there is a high probability that there is a small problem in one of the two attributes of Hell or World Affinity, which led to this outrageous coincidence that even Conan is coming and has to watch three episodes of replays. .

"So, how long do you plan to stay up there? Even if the other party is a necromancer, you don't need to be so afraid, right?"

While Xin Lailai was guessing in his mind, he glanced at Fabu who was hugging his thigh tightly. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly. He used magic chips to form two arms and pulled the opponent down little by little. .

"Black...Lord Black Sword! You don't know, that guy is so scary! Just by taking one look at him, we all feel like we can't control our whole body!"

"Lord Black Sword, we are now your most loyal followers. You must never abandon us. How can we survive in this world without you!"

Fabu, who was lifted into the air, said with snot and tears. The two soul fires in his eyes turned into pitiful wavy lines, for fear that Xin Lailai would leave him here.

——After seeing the cross-distance tracking method displayed by Hades, Fabu, who was personally the culprit of a series of events such as the theft of the colorful crown and the breaking of the seal of the Soul Eater, was completely stunned. Now all he can think about is It was a matter of whether he would be approached by Hades to settle accounts.

——As a necromancer, Hades originally had a huge innate suppression on it as a necromancer. Just a breath of breath can scare it so much that it can't sleep. Now it happens again. It made Fabu even his frame a little unstable.

"Don't worry, I guess he doesn't remember you at all."

Xin Lailai glanced at Fab and said calmly. Hell's attention was obviously focused on him at that time, and based on the other person's perspective, there was a high probability that Fab would be thought to be just his summon, and he would not think of it. The opponent is actually a native character of Overlord.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Black Sword, where are we going next?"

Huo Yu on the side came forward and asked curiously.

"The tentative decision is to go to the desert peninsula in the southwest. There is a secret realm there that is very suitable for your current strength. As for the future..."

Xin Lailai said, lowering his head and lost in thought. Overlord's world view is very large, and there are many hidden areas. However, most of those hidden areas are at the second, third or even fourth or fifth level, and are not suitable for fire baths at all. A few people went to break in.

Therefore, he really didn't think about where to go after finishing the desert peninsula. After all, according to his original plan, he could actually finish it at this point.

But to be honest, it would feel like a bit of a waste if it ended like this. This is the world of Overlord. If you just clear a few low-level secret realms and then leave, no matter how you think about it, it would be a bit of a loss.

"It's a pity that I couldn't get the Windless Orb when I came here. Otherwise, I could have seen the situation on the Central Continent."

Xin Lailai sighed with some regret. In fact, during the period before entering the world of Overlord, he, Chi Jia and others had been trying to collect a legendary piece of equipment called [Windless Orb]. It is a special item in the Overlord world that can ignore the sandstorm barrier between the northwest continent and the central continent where humans are located, and forcefully enter the central continent.

"Um... Lord Black Sword, maybe I know a way to enter the Central Continent?"

Just as Xin Lailai sighed because he was struggling with the next choice, a hesitating voice suddenly sounded from the side.

Fabu, who was held in mid-air by the spell chip, raised his thin skeletal arm, looked at Xin Lailai and Dotian and others in front of him, and said timidly.
