Su Yue gazed at the capital city, where thunder rumbled and roared with immense force.
But his face remained as calm as a still lake, undisturbed.
I was worried that these people would flee this place out of fear of fighting.
However, the Shadow General's actions unexpectedly helped him.
In reality, Su Yue knew he didn't have the ability to pursue them all one by one.
"Lone Wolf Brother, are you satisfied with this solution?"
The Shadow General's face was plastered with a fawning smile. He saw that Su Yue remained calm and showed no displeasure at his unauthorized actions.
"Moreover, this is the last national treasure of the Sakura Kingdom—the Yasakani no Magatama! As long as you nod, I will present it to you with both hands immediately, without any further questions."
As soon as he finished speaking, a jade artifact exuding an ancient aura quietly appeared in his palm.
This national guardian artifact has a remarkable characteristic: it will inevitably fall off when the holder dies.
Its appearance in the hands of General Shadow at this moment undoubtedly confirms the fact that Ryuichi Shiraishi has met with misfortune.
The fact that Shadow General was able to defeat Ryuichi Shiraishi undoubtedly shows that their relationship is far more complex than simply that of master and servant.
Otherwise, General Shadow would not have been able to kill Ryuichi Shiraishi.
However, these subtle clues and deductions did not attract much attention from Su Yue.
Because when he saw the jade artifact called "Yasakani no Magatama" in the hands of the Shadow General.
Su Yue's heartstrings were touched, and an indescribable longing surged in his heart. He was completely "moved".
Su Yue already possesses the two national treasures of the Cherry Blossom Kingdom: the "Yata Mirror" and the "Ama-no-Murakumo Sword".
Once the three-piece set is complete, the suppression of the nation's fortune by cherry blossoms will reach an unprecedented peak.
For ordinary citizens of Japan, the prospect of escaping their predicament and returning to a normal life is very difficult.
Under the live broadcast, people witnessed the Shadow General's humble posture at this moment, and they all hurled angry curses.
This situation is exactly the same as the behavior of some disappointing viewers in front of goddesses in the past.
"Really? But does your promise still stand?" Su Yue asked, still feeling tempted.
“Brother Lone Wolf, of course! I swear to you with the supreme honor of an Emperor-level zombie that every word I have said comes from the heart and is absolutely true!”
General Shadow, his lips agape after being teased by Su Yue, quickly interjected.
"How about this, I'll give you the 'Yasakani no Magatama' first! Brother Lone Wolf, you see, my determination and sincerity are quite strong!"
The Shadow General knew perfectly well that if Lone Wolf made a move and he himself met with misfortune, then the "Eight-Foot Jade" would inevitably be taken by him.
Therefore, the Shadow General chose to offer it up voluntarily, thus demonstrating his magnanimity.
Seeing that General Shadow was exceptionally sincere and that the item was right in front of him, Su Yue was completely "moved".
Su Yue hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's possible, but..."
"Lone Wolf Brother, if you have any other requests, just say so! As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it without hesitation!"
As the Shadow General spoke, he slowly rose from the ground, holding the Eight-Foot Jade Ornament high in his hand, his face appearing peaceful and harmless.
However, beneath this calm exterior, he was quietly gathering the power of lightning in his hands.
The intention was to subdue Su Yue with overwhelming force the moment they approached him.
【Shadow Bloodline】: The Shadow General infuses his “bloodline essence” into the lightning orb, casting a spell on the target unit. Once the spell takes effect, the unit will have to submit to the Shadow General’s will and become his prisoner.
Clearly, this is the method used when Shadow General and Ryuichi Shiraishi formed their contract.
However, wielding such power comes at a cost; it consumes a great deal of resources.
This meant that the Shadow General could only use this one move for a short period of time.
Otherwise, General Shadow would have even attempted to bring Luvia under his command.
With his "omniscient and omnipotent" talent, Su Yue had already discerned the other party's ambition.
As the Shadow General drew closer, he was about to enter the attack range.
The closer he got to victory, the more he let his guard down.
Just as he was about to complete the final step, the Shadow General couldn't suppress the smirk on his face.
However, just as Shadow General was about to raise his hand, Luvia decisively made her move.
She suddenly launched an attack, using Soul Eater on the Shadow General.
In the void, a giant hand suddenly appeared, firmly grasped the Shadow General on the ground, and lifted him up in an instant.
The Shadow General, whose head was tightly pinned, clearly had not expected to be attacked from behind.
The "Shadow Bloodline" he had painstakingly condensed slipped from his hand.
The ball of lightning crashed to the ground, instantly blasting a shocking ten-meter-wide hole in the earth.
The onlookers then realized that the Shadow General's seemingly surrendering posture was actually a plot to ambush Lone Wolf.
However, the lone wolf seemed to have already foreseen the opportunity.
He cleverly nipped the Shadow General's last hope of turning the tide in the bud.
However, at that very moment, with Luvia exerting her full force...
The Shadow General let out a shrill scream, which then abruptly stopped, leaving only an echoing sound in the air.
His body, constantly changing shape in the void's giant hand, eventually turned into a pile of minced meat.
With a deafening boom, it turned into a shower of blood and vanished into thin air.
[Ding! Luvia has defeated the Emperor-level zombie—Shadow General Shenzongzu!]
[Ding! Luvi has killed a certain number of survivors and successfully defeated an Emperor-level zombie! Evolution points are sufficient; her rank has been upgraded to Emperor-level!]
[After advancing to the Emperor level, Luvia's strength has greatly increased! However, in order to fully absorb and digest the power of evolution, she will automatically enter a period of weakness.]
