"How do I know if you will treat me like you treat John?" Zhou Wen said to the six-winged seraphim.
"Guardians are born to fight. If you are defeated, what's the point of me not abandoning you? As long as you still have the ability to fight, I will always protect you, "the six-winged seraphim said.
"That makes sense. Then, what should I do to make you my Guardian?" Zhou Wen asked again.
"It's very simple. All you need to do is drip a drop of blood on my palm and let me complete the ritual," the six-winged seraphim said as he extended his palm.
"Alright." Zhou Wen cut his finger and extended his hand towards the six-winged seraphim's palm. Just as the blood dripping from his finger was about to land on the six-winged seraphim's palm, Zhou Wen held the Bamboo Blade in his left hand and slashed at the six-winged seraphim's neck like a bolt of lightning streaking across the void.
Clang!
The wings on the back of the six-winged seraphim protected his body like an umbrella, blocking Zhou Wen's strike. At the same time, he quickly retreated.
"Human, you are too emotional." The six-winged seraphim moved back.
Zhou Wen slashed out again and again. The six-winged seraphim was different from Companion Beasts. Companion Beasts were completely controlled by their owners, but the six-winged seraphim could abandon their owners. Furthermore, he had his own consciousness. No matter how strong he was, Zhou Wen wouldn't keep him by his side.
He had too many secrets. Once the six-winged seraphim betrayed him in the future, those secrets would be exposed. Zhou Wen definitely wouldn't let that happen.
Zhou Wen used Transcendent Flying Immortal to kill the six-winged seraphim, but he realized that without John's control, the six-winged seraphim was even stronger than when John used him. His figure moved in the void, leaving behind afterimages. Zhou Wen's Transcendent Flying Immortal could only hit his afterimages. After slashing several times, he failed to touch the six-winged seraphim.
"Human, you will soon know what you have missed. When the time comes, you will regret everything you have done today." The six-winged seraphim flew backward, but his speed was terrifying. With his six wings flapping, he left the arena as though he had teleported and soon vanished.
Zhou Wen frowned slightly as he looked at John on the ground. He had already fainted and An Sheng's men were checking his injuries.
"What do you plan on doing with him?" An Sheng walked to Zhou Wen's side and asked.
"What do you think?" Zhou Wen asked.
"The video of your conversation with him was recorded. Even if you killed him, it would be justifiable defense. The Cape family wouldn't be able to say anything. However, there's no point in killing him. If you don't mind, I hope to let him live and obtain information about the six-winged seraphim from him, "An Sheng whispered.
"Then do as you see fit. Give me a copy of the intelligence if you get anything. I'll be heading back first," Zhou Wen said as he turned to leave the arena.
On the arena's outer wall, Zhang Chunqiu looked at An Tianzuo in his military uniform and said with a smile, "Overseer An, congratulations to your An family for obtaining another valiant general."
"He's just an ordinary student at Sunset College. He doesn't deserve the title of a fierce general, Brother Zhang." An Tianzuo said indifferently, then said, "If the three of you don't mind, can you come to my place?"
"Coincidentally, I have something to say to the Overseer," Zhang Chunqiu said with a smile.
Dugu Ge and Xia Xuanyue also agreed to head over. They roughly knew what An Tianzuo wanted to say by inviting them over.
"To be able to defeat John who had the protection of a six-winged seraphim, it looks like I've underestimated you. However, why did you reject the six-winged seraphim? Do you know that you missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? "
Zhou Wen was on his way back to school when The Thearch's message rang.
"What's that six-winged seraphim? I don't think he's a Companion Beast, but he's different from ordinary dimensional creatures, "Zhou Wen asked.
"You're right. The six-winged seraphim isn't a Companion Beast, nor is he a pure dimensional creature. To put it simply, he's a tool," The Thearch replied.
"Tool? What tool? "Zhou Wen asked in puzzlement.
"Naturally, it's a tool for combat. It's also a tool for you humans to advance to the Mythical stage. Due to congenital limitations, you humans basically don't have the ability to advance to the Mythical stage. If you want to advance to the Mythical stage, you have to obtain a Guardian similar to the six-winged seraphim. Only by using the Guardian's body can you advance to the Mythical stage and continue on your future path. That six-winged seraphim willingly followed you. It's equivalent to giving you a chance to advance to the Mythical stage, but you chased him away. Do you regret it now? "The Thearch gloated.
"Don't tell me the borrowing of the Guardian's body you mentioned means that the human body won't be able to improve? In the future, it can only strengthen the Guardian's body, right?" Zhou Wen acutely sensed something.
"Didn't I just say that due to the congenital limitations of your human bodies, it's almost impossible for you to advance to the Mythical stage? At most, you can only reach the peak of the Epic stage. Guardians are your way out. Don't think that a Guardian will betray you so easily. The reason why the six-winged seraphim betrayed John is that John wasn't qualified to form a contract with him. He only used a special method to temporarily form a contract. If it were you, you could really form a contract with the six-winged seraphim. He wouldn't betray you so easily. Do you regret rejecting him now? "
"What's a Guardian?" Zhou Wen didn't regret it. He only wanted to know what it was.
"They can be considered the representatives of the various races on Earth. Every race will have a Guardian. They will choose a human to rely on and fight with humans to grow. They will help you resist the invasion of dimensional creatures," The Thearch said.
The dimensional creatures were created by you to begin with. Why did you say you would help us resist the invasion of dimensional creatures? Zhou Wen cursed inwardly, but he didn't say it out loud.
Zhou Wen had a nagging feeling that Guardians weren't as simple as The Thearch made them out to be.
"How many Guardians are there on Earth?" Zhou Wen thought for a moment and asked. If he knew how many Guardians there were, wouldn't he know how many dimensional races there were?
"I don't know about that, but you can count. Guardians are born from cocoons. Count how many cocoons there are on Earth, and that's how many Guardians there are." The Thearch teased Zhou Wen.
It's as good as not saying anything. Zhou Wen secretly despised The Thearch. Every time an important question came up, she wouldn't answer properly.
However, The Thearch's words reminded Zhou Wen that the cocoon protected by the white dragon in Old Dragon Cave was gone, but the one in Ant Nest was still there. Perhaps he could have some ideas there.
The Ant Nest dungeon that came with the phone seemed to be very special. The other cocoons had terrifying Mythical creatures guarding them, but Ant Nest only had a Golden Flying Ant guarding it. This difference was extraordinary.
