Chapter 118: Olive Branch! Mirror Image!
At this moment, Zhao Yongkang became slightly out of sorts. He knew that the City Master of Unfallen City, Link, had three extremely strong summoned creatures.
Link’s previous battle achievement of strongly suppressing Thunder Palace, World Society, and other gangs had quickly spread throughout Dragon City.
But when Zhao Yongkang saw Yuna, he still couldn’t help feeling shocked. This extremely holy and powerful being was actually someone’s summoned creature—this was really hard for him to imagine!
“He has an angel as a follower. What kind of might is this!? How powerful is this City Master Link?” Zhao Yongkang sighed, and the will to fight was rekindled in his heart.
The reinforcements were already here, so how could he let himself die at this place? He certainly had to fight hard and live on with Zhou Rong’s share!
“Kill!” Zhao Yongkang continued to wield the long blade in his hand, squeezing every ounce of potential and strength in his body. The blade’s light became more and more flaming!
...
In the Undead army.
A figure stood on the head of an Evil Bone Beast that looked like a mountain of bones.
It was an Evil General, but its rank didn’t reach Stage Five. It was a Stage Four, Level 9 existence instead. He condescendingly watched the No Retreat Army soldiers—who were fighting—and Link’s group, which was coming to their rescue, his face full of mockery.
“This group of ants really is stubbornly resisting. No matter, I’m tired of playing. Abomination Legion, eat all of them!”
As the Evil General’s words fell, the ten-plus Abominations—which were originally at the Undead army’s rear all rushed forward.
The Abominations devoured a large number of human corpses, remnants of human limbs, and the residual limbs of aberrated monsters along the way.
This made these ten-plus Abominations’ bodies even larger and more terrifying.
And at the highest point of a building in the distance.
Doctor Ghost, Black Dragon, and a few Black Dragon Gang members all saw Link’s group, which came to support the No Retreat Army.
“Oh? That kid, Link, actually came? I originally planned to find him after completing the plan and settle the scores with him, but this kid came to my doorstep himself instead. This is alright too. I shall catch them all in one net.” Doctor Ghost grinned viciously, a faint light flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.
Black Dragon had a pale and sickly-looking face. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, drawing out a sinister smile. “I sensed a similarity in his aura. That kid called Link is very interesting...”
Doctor Ghost’s heart shook slightly. Similarity? Could it be that Link is also able to communicate with an indescribable existence?
Doctor Ghost felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart and said: “Clan Leader, we have almost finished collecting the data. Ordinary individuals can’t bear the Master’s power. Distortion signifies madness, and even if they have aberrated and transformed, their combat power still can’t meet our requirements.”
“The candidate most suitable for being transformed into an aberrated weapon has been found. It’s better if we start the transformation as soon as possible. Let’s just leave the Spiderhuman Priest to finish the things here.”
Hearing these words, Black Dragon nodded slightly, and the smile on his face became frightening.
The reason he and Doctor Ghost chose No Retreat Army as their target first—except to sacrifice a large number of lives to the G.o.d of Evil, who wove a giant net in the fantasy dream—was to find a suitable individual to carry the G.o.d of Evil’s reward and power. They wanted to create a controllable and powerful aberrated weapon.
After all, the G.o.d of Evil’s power was full of madness and depravity.
Even the current Black Dragon also couldn’t fully accept the G.o.d of Evil’s power. He might even fall into complete madness if he tried to do so.
It was just like how those humans—which were contaminated and aberrated by the Spiderhumans—simply couldn’t bear it.
And now, Doctor Ghost had already collected the data on the distortion of humans when affected by the Spiderhumans’ pollution. Hence, they didn’t need to stay here now.
As for Link, even if he could survive the monster army, there would still be the Black Dragon Gang members that had transformed into Spiderhuman Priests. These Spiderhuman Priests were responsible for obliterating the remaining humans.
“Start the transformation then. I am really looking forward to it...” Black Dragon put on his hood again, turned away, and left the place with Doctor Ghost.
...
In the ocean of monsters, Link felt something in his heart, and he subconsciously looked toward the distant buildings.
There was a strong, depraved, and twisted aura over there!
But he quickly withdrew his attention, swung the [King’s Sword] in his hand, and burst out with waves of sword energy, slicing the Undead creatures and Spiderhumans before him into powder!
With the addition of Link’s group and Yuna’s restraint effects on Undead creatures and Spiderhumans, the pressure the No Retreat Army faced was instantly reduced greatly. They now had a chance to catch a breath.
“Thank you, City Master Link, for putting yourself in danger to help us. The No Retreat Army’s people will definitely remember this deed in our hearts!” During a brief moment of respite in the battle, Zhao Yongkang—the leader of the No Retreat Army—expressed his grat.i.tude to Link.
Link just nodded and calmly stated, “The No Retreat Army is worthy of my help. After dealing with the monsters here, Chief Zhao is welcome to bring the No Retreat Army to my Unfallen City.”
“I know that Chief Zhao wants to drive away the monsters and restore peace to the people. Unfallen City also hopes to build an everlasting city in the apocalyptic world and preserve the seed of humanity.”
Link threw an olive branch[1] to Zhao Yongkang, or rather, to the entire No Retreat Army.
After all, Unfallen City would become one of the human home cities after today.
When order descended, the territory belonging to Unfallen City would expand. No overly powerful monsters would appear nearby, becoming suitable for human habitation and development.
This also meant that Unfallen City—which was close to saturation—could absorb more people into its population and enter a stage of rapid development.
In the apocalypse, human life was like gra.s.s. But the most indispensable things for development and prosperity were also human lives and a large population.
Naturally, it would be best if a force like No Retreat Army could join Unfallen City at this time.
In addition, Link had contact with the No Retreat Army in his previous life. Thus, he knew that some of them had extraordinary professions and potential.
For example, Zhao Yongkang—the leader of No Retreat Army—was a Diamond-grade [Shadow Blade Hero]. If he was properly nurtured, he would definitely be a great help in the future.
Zhao Yongkang pondered for a while when he heard this, but he did not immediately reply. “I need to consider this matter and ask my brothers-in-arms for their opinions before making a decision.”
Link just nodded slightly. He wasn’t in a hurry.
Unfallen City would become one of the few human home cities, and since it possessed the City of the Undead, Unfallen City had great growth potential. He believed that Zhao Yongkang would make the right choice in the end.
As the two talked, the ten-plus meat mountain-like Abominations were already approaching, emanating a horrible stench!
Their huge bodies made the ground and debris shake, stirring up awe in those who witnessed this.
The No Retreat Army’s soldiers secretly gritted their teeth and prepared to fight.
Link raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly and directly took out a skill scroll—which he obtained from killing the Dark Sage not long ago—from his arms.
Legend-grade Forbidden Curse: [Forged?Mirror of Illusion]!
After the scroll was used, a cracking sound could be heard. It was as if a certain restriction was broken!
A terrifying and vast aura abruptly broke free from the scroll and swept through the area!
The scroll bloomed with extremely bright purple light—mysterious and deep.
s.p.a.ce itself was like a water surface, producing circles of ripples.
Pieces of s.p.a.ce mirrors then appeared, and these mirrors reflected the strongest 200 individuals in the monster army!
The mirror images soon stepped out of the mirrors, causing everyone from the No Retreat Army and all of the monsters to become dazed!
