Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1029: Chapter 494: Brothers in Arms 2

However, due to the curse, she couldn’t appear directly, so she welcomed them on the road.

“Welcome back, and… congratulations, teammate. You’ve finally become the champion.” Little Mad King, dressed in a black trench coat, spoke after nodding to Cheese and Doll, her expression still indifferent.

It sounded more like commemoration than a congratulation.

“Thank you. Although it doesn’t sound like it.” Li Yelai internally quipped and asked, “Have you completed your mission?”

“Mostly completed… but there are still some people already protected.”

“The assassination list got exposed?” Li Yelai was startled; this was no small matter.

The confidentiality level of the list was very high, even Li Yelai couldn’t know the entire list. If the Forbidden Zone found out, it wouldn’t be good news for humans.

“The Forbidden Zone has mysterious means, perhaps they’ve learned parts of the list. But I analyze, perhaps it’s due to different timelines causing discrepancies.” Little Mad King replied, “For example, I was looking for a Forbidden Zone human named Piro in the Heavenly Kingdom based on the list, only to find he was recruited onto the Golden Warship. The very warship chasing you. He survived the battle, and for some reason, awakened a powerful talent. He was valued and nurtured by the Angel King’s family. He has already become a strong Spiritual Ability User, and is on close terms with the Prince’s Heir.”

Golden Warship? Li Yelai pondered for a moment; it seemed to be a Secret Treasure held by the Angels of the Golden Family within the Heavenly Kingdom.

They once used this warship to chase Li Yelai, who managed to sink one using Vehicle Killer.

Was it because Li Yelai acted differently on this timeline, leading to these changes?

Li Yelai and Little Mad King went to assassinate Mei Wu and mistakenly saved Ma Hongyi, a Heavenly Pride, from falling early.

Later, Li Yelai was pursued by the Golden Family, resulting in ‘Piro’ being recruited onto the ship.

Thus altering ‘Piro’s destiny.

Causing him to rise early…

Sigh…

It’s a pity that during the attempt on Mei Wu’s life, Li Yelai was only at the Four Awakenings.

Didn’t have the capability to eradicate thoroughly, otherwise it wouldn’t be this troublesome. Letting a future threat slip away.

“According to my surveillance and investigation, I’ve learned Piro is a Spiritual Eyes Path user, with a pair of Chaotic Eyes capable of devouring target’s blood and spiritual energy. In battles of the same level, it’s extremely menacing. I wanted to forcibly take him out… But that Prince’s Heir has already stepped into Overlord. Combined with those guards, it’s very difficult for me to kill Piro.” Little Mad King continued, “Couldn’t find an opportunity.”

“Don’t force it. You can’t risk your life to take down one Forbidden Zone talent,” Cheese said. “While we aim to kill talents, we shouldn’t pay too high a price. Do your best, but not at the cost of losing a powerful teammate.”

“Hmm, I understand.” Little Mad King nodded, “So I decisively gave up.”

“The King of Restricted Zone’s offspring… from what time period’s offspring?” Li Yelai asked.

The offspring of those Kings, especially those born after becoming Kings, all possess extremely strong talents. They can even have unique abilities.

Take He Lan’s ‘Reverse Heavenly Person,’ for instance, as long as there’s enough divinity, he won’t die.

Every fatal injury can be rapidly repaired.

It’s an exceptionally perverse ability, characteristic of certain Prince’s Heir’s special power.

If it weren’t for Li Yelai having the Eternal Chosen Face and also the God Calamity Avatar, cutting off He Lan’s divinity, he wouldn’t have beaten He Lan so easily.

But it does indicate the power of ‘Reverse Heavenly Person.’

This is also where the Prince’s Heirs’ arrogance lies.

If it weren’t for the Old Mad King’s poor condition… Many in the Giant City still hope he could have another child.

If the child could inherit Old Mad King’s ‘Jiuli Demon Body,’ that would be even better.

If a row of Bronze Demon Gods were to appear on the battlefield, even the King of the Restricted Zone would break a sweat.

Those unaware might think the Lord of War has returned, rallying his eighty-one brothers to wage a mythic battle.

As for the other King in the Giant City, the Amber King, he had offspring while being an Overlord.

After becoming a King, he hasn’t had offspring yet, which is a bit unfortunate.

“Unfortunately, it’s the offspring of the Twelve-winged Angel King after becoming a King,” Little Mad King said. “Talent and unique abilities are extremely terrifying. At the same level, an ambush might be feasible. But he’s already advanced to Overlord, soon to reach the peak. It’s truly hard to take him down…”

“What’s his special ability?”

“Heavenly Divine Descent… it’s somewhat similar to your Wanxiang Path’s Seventh Awakening ability, Mimicry Phenomenon. But that’s his talent ability,” Little Mad King replied after pondering for a bit. “I haven’t figured out the amplification or effects yet, as I haven’t engaged him.”

Li Yelai nodded slightly.

The Wanxiang Path’s Sixth Sense is the Mythical Mimic, an ability that signifies qualitative change.

While the Wanxiang Dominator’s Seventh Awakening ability is the Anomaly, Mimicry Phenomenon.

It strengthens one’s Mythical Mimic, or grants other enhancements through a manifested anomaly.

For example, ‘Zhu Ye,’ his Mimicry·Phenomenon is the Sun and Moon Shining Together.

He infuses an anomaly within a region, day and night coexist.

Gaining all powerful blessings of the Candle Dragon.

Both defensive and offensive abilities are maximized!

This is the impact of anomalies.

Of course, Li Yelai had not long entered the Sixth Sense, so there was still a distance. But it could be considered beforehand. Seek an opportunity to ask Chu He if he has any mutated ability formulas.

Then, Little Mad King said: “I heard, your experience in the Ten Thousand Dragon Lake was extremely perilous. But the harvest from the Ten Thousand Dragon Lake was substantial, especially within the Inheritance Land. Sixth-sense experts in Border City have received word. They will head to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake in phases to challenge.”

This serves to strengthen humanity’s overall power. Those who reach Sixth Sense and Overlord levels are humanity’s elite among elites.

If they gain additional blessings, inheritances, or any Divine Calamity or Secret Treasures, their combat strength will increase further!

Therefore, officials are not keeping it under wraps. Apart from the Border Giant City Circle and Ba Shu Giant City Circle, other Human Giant Cities will also be notified.

They will head to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake one after another to grow more powerful through the Inheritance Land!

From this angle, the Ten Thousand Dragon Lake will witness many human heroes!

Ma Hongyi and others might already be on their way to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake.

May they receive higher rewards; a few more Biomimetic Tear Drops or Heroic Spirit Sea would be ideal.

Thinking of this, Li Yelai looked at Doll: “Xiao He, when will you go? Any plans?”

As the top captain, Doll is naturally expected to go to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake for advancement.

Possibly, she might secure the highest rewards.

If the residual sound avatar also consumed the Doll’s curse…

Even facing Li Yelai’s residual sound avatar, Doll could win.

The Fear Avatar’s curse is just too powerful.

“Currently… it’s not suitable for me to immediately advance to Overlord, so headquarters hopes I challenge as I’m at the Sixth Sense Peak. If I become Overlord then, the odds might actually be lower.” Doll looked at Li Yelai reluctantly, “In just over a week, I’ll be heading to Ten Thousand Dragon for the challenge.”

“I’ll go too; I’m also at Sixth Sense Peak,” Little Mad King replied. “Traveling back and forth is quick, at most half a month.”

She could have advanced to Overlord earlier, but Old Mad King said she absolutely cannot advance this year. He feared she’d rush things.

Now she can indeed challenge the Sixth Sense level difficulties.

If she advanced to Overlord, she’d face Overlord-level elite. And she would need more time to master her powers and reach the peak.

It’s fair to say, it’s best for strong ones stuck at the Sixth Sense Peak to challenge.

“However, I heard the boss of the inheritance land is you and Captain Yang Chen?” Little Mad King asked.

“Uh… yes… it depends on luck. Might encounter me.” Li Yelai nodded.

“I see…” Little Mad King mused.
