The figure that appeared in the air like a demon god was none other than Zhang Lisheng.
After realizing that his whereabouts had long been exposed, the young man had to choose between fleeing or striking first. He chose the latter and took the initiative to attack the Rat King who was the first to show malice to him. With his powerful strength, he intimidated all of the Darkwalkers in the underground palace.
Of course, to these evil people who possessed superhuman strength and walked in the darkness, as long as they did not witness an absolute suppression of strength, the intimidation would not last long.
Knowing this very well, after Zhang Lisheng appeared, he immediately smiled and said, "Your Lordship, I'm also a guest invited by you. It's just that I've accidentally lost the invitation, so I'm not considered as an uninvited guest, am I right?"
"You're my invited guest …" The Lord was stunned for a moment before his eyes narrowed right away. "In that case, you must be the Legendary who punished Eagle.
I thought he was just babbling nonsense because he couldn't stand the pain of his soul being burned. I can't believe that he actually met a Legendary … "
"Not only that, but he even took the initiative to attack me and my three companions just to satisfy his companion's collection quirk." Zhang Lisheng interrupted the Lord's words and said with a smile.
This sentence sounded like a joke, but it was actually a form of misdirection. It was impossible for an eagle to become friends with a sparrow. How could a companion who could travel with a Legendary in the horrifying jungle of the foreign world be a weakling?
As expected, the instant Zhang Lisheng's words left his mouth, the air in the palace-like basement seemed to have frozen right away. All of the guests instinctively tensed up.
The Lord became silent for a moment before replying in a deep voice, "For my dependent's rudeness and offense, I apologize to you …"
"No, no, no, Your Lordship, you've misunderstood me. I didn't come to your 'party' to, to, how do I put it? Well, in short, I came with goodwill and a gift." Zhang Lisheng hemmed and hawed as he slowly opened his sharp claws, revealing a diamond-shaped round stone in his palm.
It was a gem condensed from the faith of the Hellfire tribesmen. Other than the jelly gem, it was also the second magical item that the young man discovered that he could carry with him after turning invisible. He deliberately brought one to the Lord's party, planning to make a small sacrifice at a necessary moment to test the waters.
"A small stone with a strange shape? So this is the gift you intend to give to the Lord …" Upon seeing the faith stone that Zhang Lisheng showed, Miss Spider's small white hand that was holding the slender cigarette exerted a little force and bent the cigarette. Swaying her body, she walked towards the young man in a disdainful manner, but her footsteps were immediately blocked by the Lord's tall figure.
"A small stone with a strange shape," the powerful party host said with a ferocious smile. "Madam, as a Dark Believer who stands on the Legendary-level, do you really think that I can't see that it's a precious round stone condensed from devout faith …"
"Since you've recognized me, then cut the crap." Miss Spider opened her red lips and was about to cast a powerful sorcery, but she saw the Lord suddenly raising both of his hands and continued to say politely, "However, no matter how precious the faith stone is, it's still not as stunning and intoxicating as your brilliant smile.
If you want to keep that round stone in your pocket, I have no objection at all. "After saying so, he stepped aside to make way for the Lord.
Upon seeing the Lord's unexpected performance from afar, Zhang Lisheng hesitated for a moment before suddenly smiling and throwing the faith stone in his hand to Miss Spider. "Since the person who receives the gift is already so generous, then of course, I, as the person who gives the gift, don't have to be stingy at all."
The diamond-shaped round stone rolled in the air under the illumination of the firelight. Its originally dim surface gradually flashed a bright light under the friction of the air, drawing a rainbow-like light path in the air that lingered for a long time. In the radiating brilliance, there was a kind of vague but natural chanting that exuded a sacred meaning.
After the faith stone left his hand, the various strange phenomena that appeared on the Lord's face, who seemed to be aloof just now, could not help but reveal an expression of extreme joy and greed. However, he quickly suppressed the surging tide of his heart and used his gaze to stop the restless Rat King, allowing the round stone to fall into Miss Spider's hand.
When the faith stone fell into her hand, the brilliance on the stone's surface and the chanting that made one feel tranquil disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Looking at the small unprepossessing stone in her hand, Miss Spider had an ecstatic expression on her face. "It's really the purest and finest faith stone! It's really the purest and finest faith stone … Just this harvest alone is worth my trip to New York.
Your Lordship, powerful and mysterious Legendary, thank you very much for your generous gifts. "
The woman spoke and suddenly spat out a bunch of colorless spider silk from her mouth, wrapping the round stone between her fingers before swallowing it into her stomach.
In her opinion, it was impossible for such a pure faith stone to fall into a trap due to its sacred nature. For this reason, it would be better for her to digest it as soon as possible. However, to her surprise, when the round stone entered her stomach, she felt a burning pain coming from her stomach.
A few seconds later, Miss Spider could not help but howl in pain with a distorted face as she spat out a gush of white flame from her mouth.
After spitting out the flame from her mouth, the woman's pain seemed to ease a little. She allowed the fire that seeped out of her pores to burn the black dress on her body and the black veil on her face into ashes, revealing her voluptuous and alluring body. Looking at Zhang Lisheng with a ghastly gaze, the white teeth in her red lips gradually became sharp and terrifying as she asked, "Darkwalker from a foreign land.
You should know that there's nothing more terrifying than the counterattack of a Legendary who has fallen into a desperate situation. Since I didn't get burned to death by your trap, you better tell me now, what the hell is the gift that you're planning to give to His Lordship? "
The first sentence that the woman, who had snapped out of her greed, cunningly listed the Lord as her ally. However, to her surprise, the one who answered her question was not the intruder who appeared in the party with the appearance of a demon, but the Lord himself.
"Madam, you've misunderstood the kindness of this generous and powerful Darkwalker.
The gift that he's giving is indeed a genuine faith stone, but it's not a round stone obtained from demolishing a famous church or temple on Earth. Instead, it's produced in the foreign world. For this reason, because of the barrier, it's harmful to use it without purification. "
When the Lord was speaking, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Lisheng, as though he was afraid that the young man would disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye. After explaining to Madam Spider, he immediately put on a straight face and said to Zhang Lisheng solemnly and straightforwardly, "Dear respected Legendary, it looks like we've really thought of the same thing.
Of course, compared to me who's still in the initial stage of exploration, you've made much more progress. At the very least, you've already achieved tangible results.
I think since you're willing to bring this faith stone to see me, you must have encountered some kind of bottleneck and are planning to seek cooperation, am I right? "
Upon hearing the Lord saying that the round stone he brought was a product of the foreign world, Zhang Lisheng already felt that this trip was worthwhile. His mind turned quickly, but he shook his head calmly and said, "You're wrong, Sir. I'm here to seek an opportunity to trade with you, not to cooperate.
It's too extravagant for people like us who walk in the 'dark' to talk about cooperation the first time we meet. "
"Your words are sincere and straightforward, so tell me what you're thinking, Legendary. What kind of deal do you want to make?"
"I intend to pay 19 faith stones in exchange for only two things. One is a complete set of secrets to become a dark believer.
Two, I hope that you can destroy a native tribe on Shrimp B1 Island and give me the tribe's totem pole and the guardian spiritual monster's fresh corpse. I think you should know what the guardian spiritual monster I'm talking about is. "
"Guardian spiritual monster? What an appropriate term." The Lord smiled and casually said, "I can understand that you want the totem pole, and I can also understand that you want the living soil monsters, which are the guardian spiritual monsters that you mentioned, but what do you want their fresh corpses for?"
"Living guardian spiritual monster? Haha! If you fight those monsters with the mentality of capturing them alive, you'll definitely be pleasantly surprised!" Upon hearing the Lord's question, Zhang Lisheng shook his head with a blank expression on his ferocious face and replied indifferently.
Upon hearing that Zhang Lisheng avoided his question, the Lord also tactfully did not continue to ask and nodded instead. "Thank you for your reminder, Legendary, but the trading conditions you proposed are too vague. The native tribes on Shrimp B1 Island have a great disparity in size."
"It's not fair to you to only get 19 faith stones after attacking a tribe with more than 100,000 people.
Not only that, it's not worth it for me to pay 19 faith stones only to get a totem pole of a native tribe with less than 50,000 people. All the tribes with 70,000 to 80,000 people are the most suitable targets.
I've already chosen two for you to choose, Kaqilu with 70,000 people and Mokacho with 80,000 people. "
"Your words sound fair, but the information between us isn't symmetrical, dear Legender …"
"For this reason, you have no choice but to believe me, Your Lordship. Otherwise, I'll look for someone else to trade with," Zhang Lisheng interrupted the Lord's words and said resolutely.
The moment his resolute words left his mouth, a layer of faint red mist suddenly pervaded the Lord's cheerful face. At the same time, the middle-aged man who was wearing a crown of thorns on the wooden cross erected in the middle of the huge basement let out an unprecedentedly high-pitched and miserable howl. A ball of black flame ignited all over his body before he turned into ashes.
"Strange Legendary, such an arrogant attitude of yours is not something a guest should have!" After a change of expression, the party host said to Zhang Lisheng in a deep voice. Without warning, he quickly drew a mysterious rune in the air with both of his hands and chanted loudly, "In the name of darkness, I shall imprison the sinner in front of me!"
As the Lord's incantation left his mouth, in an instant, a gush of glorious power wrapped Zhang Lisheng tightly. Even his nihilated body could not escape from the restraint.
