Chapter 1201 Buy One Get Two - Part 1

The Demon King fulfilled part of his promise, fifteen blood essence in fifteen vials. He presented the vials on the table. There were thirty of them, and The Demon King let Tang Shaoyang choose them. Even though there were thirty vials, it was just five different bloodlines. Each bloodline had six vials.

There was Hellion War Tusk Bloodline among the six bloodlines. He did not recognize the other five bloodlines. There was one he might know, but it was a different variant. It was called Hellion Ogre. While he might not know what Hellion Ogre looked like, it was for sure it was an ogre with dark mana affinity. He was not sure how strong Hellion Ogre was compared to the normal Ogre.

The third one was Bywin Chiroptera, and he had no idea what kind of bloodline it was. The fourth one was Fellion, the fifth one was Infernal Lupuliaris, and the sixth one was Avellion. This was the first time he heard those three names, so the safest choice would be the Hellion War Tusk and Hellion Ogre.

But it was a lie if he was not curious about these three bloodlines. He put the last vial back on the table, raising his head to meet the demon kingʼs eyes, ”You still have a stronger bloodline, donʼt you?”

The Demon King let out a sigh as he indeed had a stronger bloodline than these six bloodlines. He had two more bloodlines in his inventory, but he was unwilling to offer it to Tang Shaoyang because of how rare the bloodline was. He only had one each of that rare bloodline.

”I canʼt give you that. Thatʼs the alternative for my kingdom to recover. I canʼt give it to you,” The Demon King shook his head. He admitted it, but he did not want to give it to Tang Shaoyang, ”I can only concede this much for you.”

Tang Shaoyang did not insist on the bloodline that the Demon King saved since the demon admitted it. He knew he could not push The Demon King too hard, or else, he would gain nothing from this predicament.

”Then rank the bloodline for me, from the strongest to the weakest between the six bloodlines. If you lie to me, then the deal is off,” Tang Shaoyang warned the Demon King. Since he did not know what kind of bloodline the six had, he asked the Demon King. That was why he did not insist on the bloodline saved by the Demon King. He wanted the Demon King to be honest with him.

”They are equally strong, on the same rank as each bloodline gives you a different benefit. Hellion War Tusk and Avellion grant you the ability to fly, but the former increases your Strength and Vitality significantly more than the other stats. Avellion focused more on your Agility and Magic Power, so it depends on what you need.”

The Demon King explained each benefit from the bloodline, one by one. At least, he could do a little bit of explaining rather than having the player demand the bloodline he saved. He was not lying when he said the six bloodlines were equally strong.

Tang Shaoyang ended up taking two for each bloodline. He needed three more vials to complete their bloodline deal. He ended up taking, Bywin Chiroptera, Fellion, and Infernal Lupuliaris for the last three bloodlines.

After saving the bloodline vials, serious talk came after. It was the target to destroy as part of the deal.

”Do you want me to destroy Buldorak City? I have to call the deal off if you insist on attacking the city instead of the fortress,” Tang Shaoyang told the Demon King before the latter could say anything about their target.

”Buldorak City? What makes you think I will ask you to destroy that city,” The Demon King shook his head, ”I would like you to do that, but that will break the balance, and I donʼt want that to happen. That will put The Union at the bottom.”

”Your subordinate asked me to attack that city when I was trying to enlist in your army. I thought you would ask for the same.”

The Demon King turned his head toward Commander Gustav. The latter lowered his head and did not dare to look at the Demon Kingʼs eyes.

Another sigh came out of the Demon Kingʼs lips, ”No, you will not attack that city. Our target should be their center of command, Union Fortress.”

The Demon King pulled out the map scroll, revealing the hologram of a map. However, Tang Shaoyang waved his hand, ”Thereʼs no need to pull the map. I will hardly understand the map, why bother? Just lead me to the fortress. I attack the fortress where you wait outside.”

The Demon King paused for a moment, but then he nodded his head. The player talked as if it was a simple matter of attacking the fortress, but then he recalled his main fortressʼ condition, ʼI guess itʼs easy for him.ʼ

They waited no more as The Demon King led Tang Shaoyang to The Union Fortress. With no burden such as Brond slowed them down. It took them just around two hours to reach the Union Fortress.

Tang Shaoyang stood at the Union Fortress, the fortress with the greatest defense in The Union. The Varil Fortress was nothing compared to the one in front of him. He guessed it right, The Union did not bother to invest in the Varil Fortress because they were ready to give it up.

The Union Fortress had a thirty meters wall surrounding the fortress, installed mana canon on top of the wall, and also the terrifying ballista was ready to rain down the enemy that dared to get closer to the fortress.

Tang Shaoyang and Rosalie walked side by side, approaching the fortress. While the stone wall was less impressive than the demonʼs fortress with the black city, it was still something that could not be destroyed easily. The gate was made of steel, and it was closed.

One hundred meters away to reach the fortress, the guards noticed the couple, ”Who are you!? Identify yourself and take off your mask!”

The manʼs voice echoed in the air, loud enough that even the Demon King heard it from where he hid. Tang Shaoyang and Rosalie ignored the command as they approached The Union Fortress.
