For a chaotic organization like the Shadow Council, betrayal and being betrayed are commonplace, and killing each other is even more common.

Just like the current environment, it is very normal for big fish to eat small fish and small fish to eat small shrimps.

Because in order to plunder wealth, in addition to exploring ancient ruins and other similar tasks, you can also start from one place.

Robbery!!!

This has a lot to do with the upper echelons of the Shadow Council, who grow strong through betrayal and being betrayed, just like raising a Gu, where the weak become nutrients and the strong become stronger.

Use a small, elite force to fight against the huge power of the wizarding kingdom.

It was very, very successful.

Everyone in the Shadow Council is an elite, there are no playboys.

There is no one like Baghdad, James, and Oscar, who grew up with a silver spoon in their mouth, as Luther met in the wizarding kingdom.

Because of the characteristics of the Shadow Council, mercenaries who have just joined the Shadow Council will not trust anyone. For example, Newton has never trusted anyone.

But there are also people like Luther, who have a small team around them because of their own strength.

Some people will always be lone rangers, while others will always be small teams.

Of course, there are very strong players in the Mavericks, but the team obviously has more advantages than the Mavericks.

These eight people who took a fancy to the legendary black dragon armor on Luther are very extraordinary.

They have a nickname, hyenas.

The origin of this group of people seems to be a small mercenary group in the Drake Kingdom, with a number of 18 people. However, the Drake Kingdom is relatively stable, and the income of mercenaries is not high.

The nobles monopolized the wealth, so the civilian knights had no way to get ahead. So eighteen people agreed to join the Shadow Council and became mercenaries of the Shadow Council.

When they first entered the Shadow Council, they were all junior knights.

Because they were once an established mercenary group in the Drake Kingdom, they trusted each other and their strength grew rapidly.

Intermediate knight, senior knight, all the way to the current great knight.

However, casualties are inevitable in Shadow Council activities. The number of hyenas has dropped from 18 to the current 8. However, not only have they become stronger, they have also become more cunning, stronger, and more brutal.

Although they still trust each other, their behavior has been distorted. Hyenas are known for chasing their prey and holding on to it.

Once they set their sights on their prey, very few of them will escape.

Moreover, they are all very powerful, all of them are elite knights, among whom the Wolf King and Knight Newfit are even about to become Gale Knights.

The realm of the Great Knight is completely different from that of the Senior Knight, Intermediate Knight, and Primary Knight.

Their elites are elites. Unless they are fitted with a heroic template, the strength of each elite knight is not much different.

There are just slight differences due to different properties.

So the eight of them together could easily kill a titled knight.

They met Luther by chance. Their idea was exactly the same as Luther's, sneaking into the mansion area and stealing legendary items and various kinds of wealth.

They also saw that this magic city was destroyed in an instant by some kind of spiritual energy, but the wealth was preserved very intact.

Such opportunities are very rare.

Each of them is about to become a titled knight, and the magic potion they need is extremely huge. The more wealth they accumulate, the faster they can grow.

At that time, you will have a higher status and can plunder more resources.

Leveling up is addictive.

Especially in a place like the Shadow Council, a legendary warrior like Augustus could kill low-level mercenaries at will if he was in a bad mood.

The strong will feel refreshed, while the weak will feel angry.

The mind is twisted, good and evil are twisted, and ultimately the pursuit of status and power reaches a perverted level.

Because of the desire for power, wealth is an indispensable resource. When the eight of them saw Luther and Miss Xinia walking on the street, they naturally wanted to kill them.

Luther should be one of the very few normal people in the Shadow Council. He has neither a fierce and twisted aura nor a tyrannical and cruel look. He looks like a young nobleman.

Not to mention Miss Xinia, she is an outlier among the white dragons known for their stupidity and wildness, a smart magic dragon, and her temperament tends to be noble, even cold.

She also looks like a noble lady.

There were no wizards among the hyenas, so the opponent's level depended entirely on experience. So they decided that these two guys were weaklings.

Probably two big knights.

Because Miss Xinia's body is also very strong, comparable to that of a human knight. They judged that Miss Xinia is also a knight.

They actually overestimated Luther. Luther was just a tiny elite mid-level knight, but his combat power was a bit absurdly high.

"Boy, I'll only say this once. Hand over your legendary armor and all your rings. Then we can live in peace." Wolf King Newfit said in a deep voice.

The Wolf King is sixty-eight years old this year.

His age was not too old among the great knights, so his face was very young. His youthful and handsome appearance and tall and slender figure made him look like a young nobleman.

But he was wearing magic armor, weapons, and a cloak, full of the atmosphere of the battlefield. The light flashing in his eyes was only cold and ruthless.

Just like a real wolf, it only knows how to chase prey and has no sympathy or mercy.

Those who know Hyena know that this sentence is true. Hyena's words can be trusted. In other words, Luther can leave as long as he puts down the ring and the legendary black dragon armor.

And if Luther and Xinia are really two great knights as Hyena judged, then they should indeed do so.

“Ah!!!” Luther sighed helplessly, “This is what they call being in the underworld, you’re bound to get stabbed, especially in a crappy place like the Shadow Council. I was actually robbed.”

The hyenas all frowned. The other party answered the question irrelevantly. Was this a rejection?

The wolf king Newfit winked at his seven companions and released his violent fighting spirit. He used a black knight sword without a red line, so it was not a bloodthirsty weapon.

But with the help of his violent fighting spirit, it exuded a sharp edge.

It seemed as if even the sky could be cut open.

Of course, Luther knew that this was his own illusion, because according to his current realm, the top knight was indeed like the sky, an existence that was difficult to reach.

But it doesn’t matter, Luther is hanging.

"Don't get me wrong, if you want to fight, fight with my bodyguard." Luther pointed at Miss Xinia with a smile.
