Li Huailin was a little surprised that Madort actually agreed. It seemed like he was really afraid of death. As mentioned before, Li Huailin didn't really mind. After all, resurrecting them was just a matter of convenience. Since that was the case, Li Huailin could also resurrect Celeston and Celeston would easily agree. After all, Celeston valued his people very much, so he would rather resurrect as an Undead and continue to take care of his people than to die directly.
Since Madort was willing to cooperate, Li Huailin would just let him come back to accept his death. Although he could still kill him in the Temple, he would have to activate the Undead Aura. Since the Undead Aura didn't distinguish between friend and foe, it was possible that it would hurt the programmers inside. Li Huailin didn't know if the programmers were at full health right now. If one of them was experimenting and had half their health left, then suddenly burned themselves to death, wouldn't that be a huge loss? That was why it was better to let Madort come back to die.
So, he told Madort about it, and Madort had no choice but to agree. Li Huailin wasn't worried that Madort would continue to run. In any case, if Madort wanted to continue running, Li Huailin would just have to wait for his Teleportation Skill to cool down before chasing after him. Since Li Huailin didn't have anything else to do, he helped Celston move the books while waiting for Madort to return.
Of course, Li Huailin also told Celston about the negotiation with Madote and asked him if he wanted to become an undead. As Li Huailin expected, Celston agreed and even requested Li Huailin to turn Dalcross and Willantis into undead as well. However, Li Huailin directly rejected this request. Li Huailin had also thought about this when he killed the two of them. But unlike Celston, Dalcross and Willantis were staunch racists. Li Huailin understood their personalities from their previous conversation. Therefore, directly reviving them would be looking for trouble for Li Huailin. Moreover, their corpses had probably been wiped out by the system. According to the game's settings, the corpses of monsters killed by players would mysteriously disappear after a period of time. However, the duration wasn't fixed. The mobs seemed to disappear especially quickly, but the bosses seemed to be able to stay alive for a period of time.
No matter what, Li Huailin wouldn't revive them, so he directly rejected Celston. Celston was obviously very disappointed, but after thinking about it, it made sense. If Li Huailin had directly resurrected those two fellows, they would have been better off dead given their temperaments.
There were a lot of books in the Demon Library. Li Huailin also tried to put them in his backpack, but each book actually took up an entire slot. This was a huge problem, so he could only use it directly. Of course, it would take a long time. While moving, Madort returned. Yes, this time, he didn't run away. He probably understood that he couldn't escape. Although he came back to die, he was still a laborer, so Li Huailin conveniently dragged him to move the books.
This was even more tragic. Madort thought about how he was the Fourth King of the Evil Demons. Now, he was beaten to the point where he couldn't even control his life and death. Before dying, he actually had to help the person who was about to kill him carry the books. He was once the overlord of the continent, but now he had fallen to such a state. But what could he do? Madotte could only sigh for a moment, then he could only help out with the chores.
While working, Li Huailin naturally thought about what he should do. He had two choices in front of him. First, he had to deal with Madort and Celston. This way, the Fourth King of the Evil Demons would all die, and in theory, he would be able to trigger the final World Trial. Now that the four keys were with him, he could gather at any time, so there shouldn't be any problems. But Liu Heyun seemed to have told him not to deal with the Fourth King of the Evil Demons yet. He seemed to be worried that something would go wrong. Actually, leaving one behind was fine. Celston didn't seem like he would run away, so leaving him here wasn't a problem. But … Li Huailin really didn't want to listen to Liu Heyun. Right now, he was too curious. What exactly was this World Trial? Also, what was going on with the Ruler of the Gods? It seemed like he had to kill the Evil Demons first before he could understand everything. Li Huailin really couldn't wait to kill them.
Of course, there was another way, and that was to find out about the godly sword. Li Huailin could investigate whether Leimu was related to the last godly sword. That way, he might be able to find the last godly sword based on this information. Based on his previous experience, Li Huailin felt that this was quite possible. But … Li Huailin was more curious about the Ruler of the Gods, the World Trial, and the thing under the Icy Plains Continent. On the other hand, he wasn't as curious about the godly sword. Therefore, although this idea was very reasonable, Li Huailin felt that it was secondary.
After thinking about it, Li Huailin decided to make a compromise. He would wait for another night. Yes, it was almost time to sleep. Li Huailin decided to get rid of that troublesome Madotte first. Then, Celston would stay for the night while he contacted Liu Heyun's side to assess the situation. He would listen to Madot's opinion. If Madot had a reason, he would stay for a while longer and complete the godly sword search mission. If there wasn't any special reason, Li Huailin would get rid of Celston the next day.
Moving books continued until late at night. The one who moved the most books was Leimu. That's right, he could use magic and telekinesis spells to carry the books away. Compared to those who didn't know magic and only knew how to fight, it was much more efficient.
It was obvious that Madot didn't put in much effort when moving the books. After all, he knew that he would die after moving the books, so he was naturally unwilling. Beheading someone was just one strike. Wasn't it a little too much to make him work before he died? But no matter how unwilling he was, he still finished moving the books. It was finally time for him to die.
"Let's do it …" Leimu had already moved into the temple and started organizing his books. Celston temporarily allowed Li Huailin to stay in the temple. Now, only Madot and Li Huailin were left in the Demon Library. Madot's voice was trembling, so even the Four Kings of the Demon Race would be afraid in the face of death.
"Don't worry, it won't hurt at all," Li Huailin said with a smile.
"I'm not a kid," Madot said. "Hurry up and do it."
"I've already done it," Li Huailin shrugged.
"Huh? You've already done it? This is … "Madot didn't understand what was going on. Suddenly, his vision went black and his body inexplicably fell to the ground. That's right, Li Huailin's method of killing Madot was to use the judgment of the Law of Withering. Of course, he was a little surprised to find that Madot's reaction to the halo of the divine sword was a little slow. Previously, Dalrocos had noticed Li Huailin's halo the moment Li Huailin unsheathed his sword, but Madot didn't seem to notice it until now. Li Huailin didn't know if it was because he hadn't entered battle mode yet, so he didn't notice it or if his sixth sense wasn't strong enough. In any case, Li Huailin knew that not every expert could directly notice his halo.
In short, after ten seconds, Madot fell to the ground. Of course, a bunch of system notifications popped up on Li Huailin's screen. Of course, it was basically the same as the previous notification. First, the Evil Demons's Favorability increased, and then he obtained a new Key of Fate.
This time, the Key of Fate was the Key of Fate – Seperton. Li Huailin looked at the effects. First, his Agility was directly deducted by 100%. Li Huailin also looked at his Agility attribute. It wasn't high to begin with. After all, he had put all his points into Strength. Now, it was in the double digits. As Agility affected Attack Speed, Movement Speed, and Critical Hit, it affected Li Huailin greatly. So, it was a little hard for Li Huailin to accept. It seemed that he would have to summon the Jade Emperor again.
However, while the other Keys of Fate added two attributes, the Key of Fate – Seperton only added Agility. However, when Li Huailin looked at it, he discovered that it also gave an active skill. This skill was called 'Devour'.
Devour (No Level): Devour a unit's corpse to obtain a 10% increase in all attributes of the unit and a random skill of the unit (may also be a passive skill). Cannot devour targets that are 10 levels higher than the user. Devour time increases with the target's level. 0 mana cost. Cooldown: 72 hours.
"Uh … Isn't this Madot's skill …" Li Huailin had seen Madot use it before. Of course, Li Huailin really couldn't use it. Devouring corpses was a little hard for Li Huailin to accept. He wouldn't really be eating corpses, right? He could still accept it if there was an animation, but he couldn't handle it if he ate them directly. Although the attribute increase from Devour was tempting, it might not necessarily be an attribute increase for Li Huailin. What if it was a deduction? Moreover, the cooldown was as long as three days. This should be an additional skill of the Key of Fate. It was probably stolen by someone else. In any case, let Jade Emperor Summoner play with it.
As he was thinking, a white light flashed and Celston appeared.
