Chapter 1218 Wolf Taming - Part 4
What happened next was something Karzick and the other five former Chief Tribes could never forget even if they wanted to. After witnessing how the strongest Lycanthrope was killed, they witnessed how two people slaughtered the two thousand Lycanthrope armies. The shadow engulfed the army, no voice could be heard from the shadow. Once the shadow disappeared, it left the dead Lycanthrope on the ground, strewn all over the places with their neck slit open.
As for the Emperor, it was just pure destruction. The golden palm rained down over the army, killing dozens of them in a single strike. It was pure chaos with no mercy, all two thousand Lycanthrope died in this open field. Just like what His Majesty told him, this was a warning for him and the others. This was what happened if he betrayed The Tang Empire.
In less than half an hour, two thousand Lycanthropes were killed. Two people killed two thousand of his kind, and what if the Tang Empire's army came over? They stood no chance. Karzick felt like his heart was at ease after making the decision to join the empire. He had a heavy heart after deciding to join the empire. He was afraid that he would make the wrong decision. But with this, he realized and was convinced that he made the right decision.
"What's His Majesty doing?" Karzick heard his friend's voice. He looked up and realized His Majesty was still floating in the air, fifty meters above the ground. His Majesty has regained his human form, looking down at the corpses while the young man returned to their side. The six Lycanthropes were curious because His Majesty was throwing corpses that appeared in his hand.
"You will know soon enough," Lu An sat on the ground, looking up at the figure in the sky. Just like his brother said, he lost the bet. He thought he would come closer, but the gap between them just grew further. It frustrated him, but he was also proud of his brother.
"I know how you feel, but you can't use your brother as a comparison. You are the strongest person in the Empire in your rank, but your brother is on another level. Don't get discouraged," Rosalie came next to the young Lu An. The young man looked defeated after the competition, so she tried to console him.
Lu An turned toward Rosalie and smiled, shaking his head, "I am not discouraged. This just gets even more exciting. I know rivaling my brother would be a hell of work, but I will not give up. I will catch up to him one day!"
That was a surprise coming from Lu An, and Rosalie did not expect such a positive response from the young man. She thought Lu An would be frustrated after the loss, but the loss was like throwing wood into a fire. The loss did not daunt the young man to catch up to his brother.
The Spirit Summoning started as the Lycanthrope's dead bodies turned into black gas. The Lycanthrope along with the other monster bodies in Tang Shaoyang inventory turned into black gas, floating in the air for a while before it gathered below Tang Shaoyang. The black gas swirled, forming a tornado of black gas. Karzick was nervous because everything looked ominous.
The black gas tornado slowly dispersed, revealing a figure behind the black tornado. A two-meter figure stood where the tornado was, looking around. The figure was a human, but two fangs protruded out of his mouth with a thick beard on the side of his face down to his chin. His yellow eyes were a sign that he was not human despite his human-like appearance. It was more like half-human and half-wolf, dominated by human appearance. If not for the long claw, Karzick might think it was just a human with fangs.
[You have summoned Grade SS Spirit, Marcus The Exiled Lycanthrope!]
Tang Shaoyang was not surprised he summoned a Lycanthrope spirit. It was something to be expected, but he just did not expect that the Lycanthrope Spirit was a Grade SS Spirit. Considering how weak all the Lycanthropes were, he would be glad to get a Grade A+ or even Grade S Spirit.
"This is awfully familiar," Marcus looked around, observing his surroundings. He noticed the mark of the fight, the dried blood, and the missing part. He furrowed his brow before looking up, sensing someone above him.
Tang Shaoyang was also coming down, landing in front of Marcus, "Are you also the Lycanthrope who stayed in the Andure Vale? This is Andure Vale, inside the Dimensional Tower. Maybe you feel familiar because you know this place."
"Ah, right. This is where we settle up after that damned System threw us into this curse tower just because we broke its rule. You are reminding me of an unpleasant past that soured my mood," Marcus licked his lips, "You have to be ready for the consequence of spoiling my mood."
Tang Shaoyang scratched his head with his index finger, "Now I have confirmed that I have a weird Lycanthrope follower. Lycanthrope should act like you, arrogant and fearless, not submissive and talky."
Marcus looked confused for a moment, looking around he finally found six Lycanthropes. He frowned deeper, "Are they Lycanthropes you are talking about?" He noticed Karzick and the other five.
"That's right. The one in the front is quite submissive and talkative. Do you happen to know them?"
"Not just the System threw us into this damned prison, but it also did something to my descendants. That damned System really made sure that we could not rise anymore," Marcus revealed his anger, cursing while stomping his feet. A single stomp caused the ground to shake, "I need to vent out my anger, and you happen to be the unlucky one to meet me in a foul mood."
Tang Shaoyang let out a chuckle, "Not even an hour ago, there was also a Lycanthrope threatening to capture me so he could get out of the tower. However, he cowered at the end. He was scared and frozen before he died. I wonder if you will make the same expression. It's quite a pity to sacrifice Grade SS Spirit, but if you don't know your place, then I have to do it. Especially when I need levels."
Marcus moved, sending his fist toward Tang Shaoyang, and the latter responded with the same move. Their fists met in the air as their energy clashed. The result was obvious, sending Marcus flying backward as his right was wasted. The Heavenly Energy sipped through his hand, preventing the natural regeneration.
"That should be enough for you to know you will never win against me, Marcus. This is your last chance. Obediently form a contract with me or die."
"You haven't seen my true form yet, human. I will easily—"
"Have you seen my real form too? Don't tell you to believe this is all I got, right? You are quite naive for your age. You are too proud to admit your loss which makes you a fool. I guess your descendants are much smarter than you even though they are weaker. They know how to use their heads and make wise decisions. If the last fight is what you want, I will grant you a fight."
Tang Shaoyang had his reason why he wanted to make a contract with Marcus. Marcus might be the first generation of Lycanthrope on this thirteenth floor, and he might know a way to restore the Lycanthrope's power. He needed that knowledge to revive the Lycanthrope so the Lycanthrope could make a great contribution to the future war.
"What do I get from making a contract with you?" Marcus changed his stance. There was still fear in the fearless Lycanthrope.
"A chance. A chance for you to live again, if I happen to be in a good mood and have enough Spirit Power to resurrect you. Isn't that much better than staying in the void for the rest of your life or even dying again as a spirit? Make your choice, Marcus. I don't have that much time to waste on you."
