The Lord of Sloth?!
A hero!
The hero had actually come to the trial grounds in person!
Before Ye Zichen could react, he saw at least thirty people suddenly appear from every direction, all of them shouting at the hero on the throne.
"Greetings, Lord of Sloth!"
Where did these people come from?
Ye Zichen's eyes widened in shock. He hadn't realized there were so many people here.
Everyone bowed to the hero on the throne. Only Ye Zichen's group and Lu Yan remained standing on the plains. They didn't kneel or bow.
Thud.
The throne was slammed heavily onto the plains.
The Lord of Sloth, who was leaning lazily, nearly fell off his chair.
"Are you guys stupid?!" The Lord of Sloth glared at the silver-armored guard, then patted his golden armor, then straightened his mask.
"....."
"This Lord of Sloth is a little funny," muttered Ye Zichen. Lu Yan nodded noncommittally. "He's always been like this. You'll get used to it."
"Ahem …."
Ming Xiang coughed softly, as if to remind Ye Zichen and Lu Yan not to gossip.
"That golden armor of his looks pretty valuable." Lu Yan paid no heed to Ming Xiang's warning. He pursed his lips and frowned. "If we can pluck it off and sell it, it'll fetch at least a thousand eight hundred."
"....."
The Lord of Sloth, who'd just straightened his mask, twitched his mouth.
Laozi's armor is a pseudo-creation god artifact. You're telling me it'll fetch a thousand eight hundred?
I really have to thank you.
I can't believe you're offering such a high price.
"I can hear what you're saying. Can you be a little quieter?" Muttered the Lord of Sloth. Lu Yan, who was still examining his armor, hurriedly shut his mouth and smiled. "Greetings, Lord of Sloth."
"Haha …."
The Lord of Sloth smiled insincerely and waved his hand, then turned to the others who'd greeted him.
"Get up, everyone. I'm so tired."
Only after hearing the Lord of Sloth's orders did the others stand up.
"You don't have to do this with me," muttered the Lord of Sloth. The Lord of Sloth said in a low voice, "I guess you know … I'm different from other heroes. I don't like those complicated formalities. It's too troublesome. I'm not here for anything else.
Son, my hero guard told me that I'm on duty at the Elementary Trial this year. You guys … if you want to fight, then fight. But can you not destroy the trial grounds? It's very troublesome to maintain it, and I hate troublesome people. I just want to sit here peacefully. Don't torture me, okay? "
The Lord of Sloth was extremely vexed.
From his name, one could tell that he represented laziness and indolence. If he could not move, he would try not to move. If he could avoid trouble, he would try his best to avoid trouble.
He could sit on his throne for a hundred years …
He didn't feel sick of it at all.
If it weren't for the fact that heroes had to be at their posts and that heroes also had to consider some issues of dignity, he would have liked to lie down in his Hero Palace and work.
No,
He didn't need to work either.
Knowing that he was too lazy to work, the other heroes shared his duties.
How lazy could he be …
It had been almost thirty years since he last attended the Hero Assembly that was held once every ten years.
"Hey, can't you guys give me a response?" The Slothful Lord leaned on the chair and tilted his head. "Especially you, that exceptionally beautiful junior."
Su Liu'er furrowed her brows and glanced around.
"I'm talking about you," said the Lord of Sloth. "You don't even have the slightest bit of self-confidence? Why are you still looking around? With you here, who's worthy of the word 'beautiful'? "
"Uh …. Thank you for the praise," murmured Su Liu'er as she bowed.
"Don't, don't, don't. Stop bowing," sighed the Lord of Sloth. The Lord of Sloth sighed and said, "Watching you bow makes me feel tired. Let me remind you … I've already repaired the void you shattered just now. Can you stop doing that kind of thing? Please, I'm begging you, alright? You're a rather beautiful junior. "
"Yes, Senior."
Su Liu'er nodded slightly. "But we need to get rid of that Ironback Azure Bull King. He's our trial target."
"Ironback Azure Bull King?!"
Before the Lord of Sloth could finish speaking, the Ironback Azure Bull King, who'd been crushed beneath Bing Xing, suddenly pushed Bing Xing away and roared angrily.
Before it could roar for too long, it ….
Was stunned.
A hero!
Although the Ironback Azure Bull King was a ferocious beast, they recognized the Ancestral Dragon Clan's hero.
Why had the hero come to the elementary trial grounds?
"That's it?"
The Lord of Sloth arched his brows at the Ironback Azure Bull King.
When it saw the Lord of Sloth, the Ironback Azure Bull King broke out in a very human-like cold sweat. Then it prostrated itself on the ground, fear and trembling in its eyes.
What was the meaning of this?!
Was the hero talking to those lowly humans?
That's right.
These heroes were the human race's protective umbrella.
Why was he asking this?
It couldn't be ….
The hero wanted to attack it, right?
No way.
Weren't heroes supposed to care about such things?
The Ironback Azure Bull King trembled in fear. Su Liu'er nodded noncommittally.
"That's it."
"You nearly destroyed the elementary trial grounds for it?" the Lord of Sloth frowned. "That can't be, right? Isn't it just the Ironback Azure Bull King? Was there really a need to go to such lengths? "
The Lord of Sloth glanced at the Ironback Azure Bull King ….
"Hm?"
"There's something off about the Ironback Azure Bull King's strength. Aren't the settings …."
Before he could finish speaking, the silver-armored guard moved closer to his ear and whispered a few words. The Lord of Sloth's expression instantly filled with surprise. He glanced at Su Liu'er and Ye Zichen.
Ye Zichen sensed his gaze ….
If he wasn't mistaken, the silver-armored guard was probably informing the Lord of Sloth why the Ironback Azure Bull King was in this state.
It was because of Ye Zichen and the others' difficulty level.
The Lord of Sloth raised his hand at the guard, then spoke in a lazy tone.
"He's your trial target?!"
"Yes."
"Can we kill him in a different way?"
"We can, but it's a bit troublesome. I don't like trouble," muttered Su Liu'er. "If we can end this sooner, why drag it out? Besides …. The destruction of the trial grounds is your fault. It has nothing to do with me."
"That makes sense!"
The Lord of Sloth nodded in agreement when he heard that.
"I don't like trouble either, so how about this …. I'll take care of him for you. Take the mission item and hurry up and leave. Don't torture me …."
Instantly, everyone was dumbfounded.
The Ironback Azure Bull King, still prostrated on the ground, stared intently at the Lord of Sloth with wide eyes.
What the hell?!
The hero wants to do it himself?!
