Cursed Immortality

Chapter 920: Champion King!

On the top floor of the Overlord Tower, three figures, a High Orc, a Vampire, and a humanoid magic beast, were looking at the ghostly figure sitting a few meters away from them.

Their expression was solemn and wary; it was as if they were facing a terrible enemy and sitting on needles. If those pirates of the Evanesce Hub found out that three of the overlords were so afraid of a single guy, the overlordsʼ imposing image would crumble instantly.

However, these three overlords didnʼt care about it at all because they knew they were not a match for this ghostly figure, but at least they were far better than the other two overlords, who had instantly fled the moment they got the news of this dark starʼs arrival.

But no one blamed them for their cowardliness since they were only Tier-1 Legendary Kings, while this ʼvisitorʼ was a peak Tier-3 Legendary King. Furthermore, even among the three overlords sitting in front of him, only the magic beast was a Tier-3 Legendary King, even though he was relatively new.

The only person who could match this dark star was the Champion King, but since he wasnʼt here, they had no choice but to bite the bullet. However, to their surprise, the Champion King returned just when they were rushing here. It was like they had seen the light in the darkness and quickly called him here.

However, the Champion King seemed to have taken his sweet time, making the three pirates anxious as they faced the ghostly figure, who also remained silent and impassive. But his hollow eyes make them extremely uncomfortable as they feel they are looking at an icy abyss.

”G-great one, what bright you here to our humble dwelling?” The Vampire couldnʼt take it anymore and decided to speak. His pale white face appeared even paler as he faced the Soulless Ghost King.

After all, he was the scourge of the Vampire Race, an exile, but he was also the younger brother of the famous Blood Moon King and called himself Nightingale King.

Even though Nightingale King was an exile and a Star Pirate, he was still the brother of the Blood Moon King, a Legendary King who was as famous and influential as the Soulless Ghost King of Ghost Race and Underwood Fiend King of the Fiend Race!

So, Nightingale was always able to bluff his way out of dangerous situations by using the Blood Moon Kingʼs name. However, in front of Soulless Ghost King, he might anger the other party if he dares to use the Blood Moon Kingʼs name.

He knew Soulless Ghost King knew the inside information about his exile, and he wasnʼt afraid of the Vampire Race because they couldnʼt afford to go to war with the Ghost Race at this moment.

As for the High Orc and the Magic Beast transformed in human form, they were also quite infamous as well, not on the same level as the Nightingale King; they were notorious for other reasons: they were actual pirates.

The High Orc was known as the Butcher King because he robbed up star originations and then butchered their members and their relatives. He was a sadistic killer who knew no mercy, and he was quite cunning and always slipped away.

As for the Magic Beast, it was an Evil Corrosion Condor, the Corrosion King, a very rare magic beast that shouldʼve been a dark beast but, for some reason, wasnʼt. Because this guy devours living beings, even their own kind, to become powerful.

However, by the time the Corrosion King was discovered, it was already too late, and he had accumulated a huge amount of wealth and prestige. So, he became a star pirate under the Nightingale Kingʼs invitation and guidance.

However, no one had thought that their safe haven would be visited by the Ghost King himself one day, and now these overbearing guys were timid like rats. At the same time, they silently wondered how the hell the Soulless Ghost King knew about the location of the Evanesce Hub!

Furthermore, the most absurd thing was the Soulless Ghost King even had the Entry Permit of the Cosmic Gateway, which means someone with the entry permit had either died under the Soulless Ghost Kingʼs hand and got the permit or someone had given it to him.

The chances of the latter were quite slim, but then it wouldnʼt make sense how he knew about the Evanesce Hubʼs location.

The Soulless Ghost King, or Jacob, looked at Nightingale King. He knew who this guy was, but the memories about him were incomplete. They were just enough to give him a pretty good idea of who this was and what he was worth. As for the other two, he didnʼt care much about them as well.

However, Jacob didnʼt bother to speak with them since it wasnʼt Soulless Ghost Kingʼs style to talk with nobody.

The only one who was qualified to speak with him was the true overlord of the Evanesce Hub. Not many people know about him, but those who do remember him as the strongest giant of the Legendary Plains and also the previous Chairman of the Zodiac Warrior Alliance, the Champion King!

At this moment, Jacob finally spoke as he looked coldly behind those three pirates. He said, ”I didnʼt remember the fearless Champion King to be a sneaky rat. Well, I guess, with your boorish brain, Iʼll be surprised if youʼre not affected by idiots around you.”

His eerie tone was filled with mockery, sending shivers down the three bystandersʼ spins because they could feel the bloodlust. Despite killing countless people themselves, they still thought they were just newbies in front of the Soulless Ghost King, who was once rumored to have killed an entire elemental galaxy filled with magic beasts and other natives and refined their souls.

However, when he thought he wasnʼt talking to them, they instantly felt relieved since this meant they werenʼt targeted by the Soulless Ghost King, and to double their happiness, the Champion King had arrived!

Just as Soulless Ghost Kingʼs usual arrogant speech faded off, a powerful voice rippled through the entire space, ”Talk to my fist, you fucking ghost bastard!”

The next moment, a terrifying shockwave surfaced, catching the three legendary kings off guard as they were sent flying before a gigantic fist surrounded by crackling white light appeared out of nowhere.

The fistʼs target was none other than Jacob, who was the only one who remained in his seat without moving, as if the force of the fist did not affect him at all.

Jacob suddenly muttered, ”Iron Ghost Fleet against the chaotic sea…”
