Having lived in the Fringe for many years, Polo was a treacherous and cunning man. He did not need any instructions from Han Hao before he ordered his subordinates to take care of the matter.
It did not take long before Polo's subordinates, led by Kodiak, returned with a few corpses. "My Lord, these people are the subordinates of the other Sovereigns. Even if someone were to pursue them, they would not be able to escape," replied Kodiak with a sinister smile.
"Yes. Clean up the surroundings and don't leave any traces behind," instructed Polo. Then, he turned to Han Hao and smilingly said, "I did not expect that you would come. Haha, I have heard all about what you did outside the Omphalos. All the factions in the Fringe are talking about you."
Han Hao looked at Polo with a puzzled expression and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
"Hehe!" Polo put on a rather embarrassed smile and said, "No matter what, we are friends. Yes, I, Polo, have some connections in the Fringe. If you really want to develop in the Fringe, as members of the Alliance, we should support each other. Don't you think so?"
Han Hao put on a wooden face and replied, "You are right!" After taking a short pause, he bunched his brows and asked, "By support, what do you mean?"
"We godhunters and the Five Sovereigns have always minded our own business. Besides, we are not limited to the Fringe. However, the Five Sovereigns are the overlords of the Fringe. If you really want to develop in the Fringe, you will inevitably come into contact with the Five Sovereigns. Based on my understanding of the Five Sovereigns, it is only a matter of time before you cross swords with them. What I'm trying to say is that I am willing to stand by your side! " Polo was rather apprehensive when he said those words. Having lived in the Fringe for so many years, he knew very well how vicious and cruel the Five Sovereigns could be. It was a difficult decision for him to make.
Han Hao's interest was suddenly piqued. His Purple Demon Eye glistened as it scanned Polo's body. He asked again, "In what way will you stand on my side? An ally? "
"That's right, an ally!" affirmed Polo.
Han Hao shook his head, put on an indifferent expression, and said, "We don't need allies!" Looking straight at Polo, Han Hao said, "Polo, if you really have the heart, hand over your men to me!"
This was definitely not Polo's original intention. After listening to Han Hao's words, Polo was stunned for a long time before he said, "Han Hao, I admit that your strength is extraordinary! However, in the Godhunter Alliance, I, Polo, am not any less famous than you are and I have been around longer than you. You want me to follow you? "
Nodding indifferently, Han Hao was not joking at all. "You decide. In short, I don't need allies!" Han Hao could feel a slight tremor coming from underground. He knew that Han Tu was starting to panic because he had no idea what was happening above. Without wasting any more time, Han Hao spoke again, "You can think about it yourself. I'll be leaving first! Since you've helped me today, I won't do anything to you in the Fringe. Make up your mind! "
Upon finishing those words, Han Hao flew away without sparing a glance at the godhunters.
Polo and his followers stared blankly at Han Hao's silhouette flickering in the void for a few moments before disappearing. After a while, Polo came to his senses. His face turned gloomy as he said, "Han Hao, you are too arrogant!"
Kodiak was furious. He replied, "My Lord, that fella is so arrogant at such a young age. It seems that we have done all this for nothing!"
Polo's face turned ugly. He coldly groaned and said, "Let's see how much of a storm he can stir up in the Fringe. Let's not make a decision in a hurry. If he can prove that he has the strength to make me submit, I will consider it!" Given his status and strength in the Godhunter Alliance, it was already a great honor for him to be willing to ally with Han Hao. He did not expect that Han Hao would not give him any face at all. Polo felt humiliated as though he had been snubbed despite his warm face.

Meanwhile, Han Shuo, Rose, Wood Elite Zombie, and the others were roaming around the Fringe. However, there was one more person in the party, Romont.
Ever since Romont escaped from the swamp, he had wholeheartedly submitted to Han Shuo. Having experienced the earth-shattering changes in his body and the wonderful benefits that Han Shuo had brought him, Romont had begun to revere Han Shuo as if he was a god. Romont had to be extremely careful with every move he made. He did not even dare to yell in front of Han Shuo.
In just a dozen or so days, Romont's body's potential had greatly increased. With one thought, his body could become as hard as the toughest iron and stone. With another thought, he could transform into an invincible weapon. Even the toxins in his body could be stimulated. He had become a very special existence.
"Master, if those fellas don't listen to you, leave them to me! Hehe, I'll make them behave! "Romon kept volunteering along the way, wanting to show off his skills.
"Romont, what nonsense are you talking about?!" Rose coldly groaned and said, "We are going to invite them. They are our friends. How can you be so reckless?!"
"It is their honor to serve you, Master. I am just helping them out of kindness!" Romont could not stop talking about Han Shuo. In his mind, Han Hao was even more miraculous than the Five Sovereigns of the Fringe. Romont's own transformation had filled him with confidence in Han Shuo.
Han Shuo put on a smile and did not take Romont's words to heart. He turned to Rose and asked, "We're almost there, right?"
"He's at the top of the barren mountain up ahead. I remember that fella has always been there. I hope he hasn't left," replied Rose as she pointed to the front and led the way.
After a while, Rose stood on top of a barren mountain. She called out in a clear and cold voice, "Zovic!"
Lightning flashed across the void and a shriveled figure landed on the barren mountain. It was a wretched-looking old man. He looked all around and laughed loudly, "Rose, is that really you? I heard about what happened at the Omphalos recently. I know that Buzz and Bertha are dead. I also heard that you have returned. I thought that it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect that you are really back. "
The little old man was only one and a half meters tall. He cultivated in the energy of lightning and was a mid-stage highgod. He had a protruding mouth and monkey-like cheeks. But when he looked at Rose, his eyes were filled with sincerity and unconcealable excitement.
"Thank goodness you're still alive!" It was rare for Rose to put on a smile. She introduced the old man to Han Shuo, "This is Zovic that I told you about. I even saved his life once. Haha, although he isn't good-looking, he has a good heart and is very warm-hearted to his friends. "
After introducing Zovic to Han Shuo, Rose put on a somewhat bashful look. She took a glance at Han Shuo and said, "This is Brian, my current master. Buzz and Bertha were killed by him!"
Zovic was very surprised. He looked at Han Shuo carefully for a while and found Han Shuo's youth to be rather unbelievable. When he recalled the recent rumors about Omphalos and his party, Zovic started to doubt himself. He thought to himself, These few youngsters are the maniacs who have killed five to six hundred Brute Gods?
"I've heard a little about what happened at the Omphalos. Hehe, I didn't expect you to be so young!" Zovic lamented. He then turned to Rose and smilingly asked, "Little Rose, what brings you here?"
"Come out, Zovic. Don't hide in your shell and cultivate like a turtle!" Rose invited him solemnly.
Zovic seemed to have expected that Rose would say that. He wasn't surprised at all. However, he did not agree to it. He smiled at Han Shuo and asked, "There are five Sovereigns in the Fringe. I want to ask you, do you have the confidence to defeat any one of them?"
Han Shuo stared blankly for a moment before he calmly shook his head and said, "I've never tried. I don't have the slightest confidence." After a short pause, Han Shuo furrowed his brows and said, "But I'm not afraid!"
"You're very young. When the Sovereigns were your age, they definitely weren't as strong as you are now!" Zovic was rather dumbfounded by Han Shuo's honesty. He thought for a moment and asked, "Then do you have the confidence to escape from the Sovereigns?"
Han Shuo was taken aback. He thought for a moment and nodded affirmatively. He smiled and said, "I'm confident. Not to mention one, even if there are two or three of them, I have my own ways to escape! "
"That's good then. As long as you can survive, the chances of you surpassing the Sovereigns in the future will be very high!" Zovic's face was filled with gratification as if it was enough for Han Shuo to prove that he could escape. He smiled and said, "Alright, since Rose has saved my life, I'm willing to follow you. Even if we are killed by the Sovereigns in the future, as long as you can avenge us, that would be great! "
What a strange person, thought Han Shuo. After thinking for a moment, Han Shuo solemnly promised, "I will do my best to ensure that nothing happens to you. But if you are killed, don't worry, I will kill whoever killed you!"
"That's enough!" Zovic laughed heartily and said, "Don't mind me. That's just how I am. I want to think of a way out first. I know that if I really have to face the Sovereigns, there's no use thinking of a way out. My only request is that if something happens to me, at least you can avenge me! "
"Don't worry, I believe that Master can do whatever he wants in the Fringe! The Sovereigns? Hmph, let's see how powerful they are! " Romont, relying on his unique body and the great improvement in his strength, had never felt so confident. Other than Han Shuo and Metal Elite Zombie, he had become somewhat condescending.
Han Shuo looked at Romont but did not say anything. He turned to Rose and smilingly said, "Any other friends? Let's find them one by one."
Over the next few days, with Rose leading the way, Han Shuo and Han Shuo roamed around the Fringe. But it was a pity that those friends of Rose's had either been killed in the cruel Fringe or had left the place. Han Shuo and Han Shuo did not find anything.
Even though it was hopeless to find Rose, Han Shuo did not give up. He continued to roam around the Fringe, preparing to pick a place to set up his base. The place he chose must be one that was suitable for deploying demonic formations. After searching for a few more days, Tanai finally found a suitable location on a remote mountain.
