Chapter 556: 554: Intrigue, Legend Arrives (Subscribe)
There is a convention in negotiations that the person who speaks first always loses the initiative.
This seems to be the situation at the moment. The three legends are facing each other, it's a two-on-one situation, but no one is willing to speak first.
Silence lasted for a long time, and finally, the weak Grand Duke of Toledo spoke.
"Should I also thank you for not taking my life when I was resurrected?"
The words were full of sarcasm, but there was no doubt that it was a sign of weakness.
The old vampire laughed harshly, "No need to thank me!
As a fellow vampire, I just don't want you to go further down the wrong path."
Grand Duke Toledo suddenly turned his head, stared at him fiercely, and said, "Then tell me, what is the wrong path?"
The Dark Werewolf Ancestor spoke up: "Of course, it was the wrong path. He insisted on going his own way and lost this home that belongs to the Dark Clan."
"That illegitimate son of Xianhua Ling is so powerful, and with that ancient red dragon, even the three of us might not be able to defeat him.
This does not include the Karens, who are 'vegetarians', but that doesn't mean they are weak.
Not to mention the powerful combat capability displayed by the magic army, which far exceeded our expectations."
"Just tell me, how can we fight against a combination like this? How can we defeat them?"
"If this demiplane is completely lost, will you be happy?"
Grand Duke Toledo did not object, but nodded slightly and said, "So, you have a solution?"
"Of course!"
"Then show your cards. I also want to know what you have behind the scenes."
The Dark Werewolf Ancestor spoke: "I have five legends behind me, Grand Duke Bruch can call four, plus the three of us, that's a total of twelve.
The twelve legendary warriors attacked together. No matter how powerful the illegitimate child was, how strong the ancient red dragon was, or how powerful the magic army was, the result was only a massacre.
How is it? Can it solve the problem of the demiplane?"
"What's the price? What's the price I have to pay?"
The old vampire said, "Of course it's this demiplane. Our requirements are not many. We just want twelve territories within this demiplane, one for each Legend."
After a pause, he seemed quite magnanimous and said, "Don't worry, this Blood Moon Castle is still the territory of the Toledo clan and the home of the vampires. This will not change."
The Dark Werewolf Ancestor spoke at the right time: "There is one thing that needs to be made clear first.
It is naturally impossible for you to control the arrival of these legends, so it is better to share the key to entry, the blood moon.
Divide it into twelve parts, and every legend will have the qualifications to enter and exit, which will make all legends feel at ease."
The two of them, speaking back and forth, arranged the matter clearly, and the Grand Duke of Toledo's face turned pale.
As vampires, although their blood does not coagulate, it flows very slowly, which causes their skin to be pale.
Being so angry is a sign that one is almost unable to contain himself.
However, from their words, Grand Duke Toledo seemed to understand something: "Are these legends hiding from the war?"
"What do you mean by evasion?"
The old vampire was unhappy and immediately argued, "It's just that I don't want to get involved in the disputes over hegemony in the Old Continent.
Legends shouldn't be involved in wars within planes. These planes have chosen to actively avoid them, which is a blessing for the Prime Material Plane!"
Grand Duke Toledo sneered, "They don't want to get involved, so they have to snatch my half plane?
How shameless! "
The old vampire wanted to speak again, but the Dark Werewolf Ancestor interrupted him and said directly, "Just tell me whether you agree or not."
"Can I refuse?"
"Yes! But this is the result, I'm afraid you don't want to see it..."
Before he finished speaking, the threat was obvious. The Grand Duke of Toledo's face turned pale and he remained silent for a long time.
Suddenly he smiled, a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, a smile of relief and indifference: "I agree to your request."
"You promised?"
"Why, I agreed, but you're still not happy?"
"Of course I'm happy, but your transformation is a bit abrupt!"
"It's a very simple truth. If that illegitimate child occupies this half of the plane, I will get nothing.
But if I let the legend behind you in, not only can I get revenge, but I can also keep a piece of territory.
I understand the principle of choosing the lesser of two evils!"
"It's good that you think this way, so please sign this contract."
The old vampire raised his hand and took out a dragon skin contract. The blue dragon skin that looked like ripples of water was obviously taken from the belly of a five-colored blue dragon.
The text above is also written in three languages: Celestial, Abyssal and Blood. The content is detailed and the words are carefully chosen, guaranteeing the rights and obligations of every legend.
As if to show his sincerity, the old vampire was the first to drip a drop of blood and imprint his name on the contract.
The second person to be written down was the ancestor of the dark werewolves.
This contract was drafted by him and Grand Duke Bruch, but at this moment, he carefully checked it many times, even the patterns on the side were not missed.
After making sure that everything was alright, he shed some blood and stamped his soul mark.
When it came to the Grand Duke of Toledo, the inspection was even more thorough, and a few words were even changed, which led to a quarrel and endless debate.
When he also wrote down his name, the atmosphere finally relaxed, and he said, "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
"Of course I'm waiting. When the legends gather, all you have to do is open a portal and let them in."
"What about this contract?"
“All Legends who enter must sign a contract, and only after it is confirmed will they be allowed in.
If anyone is unwilling to sign, we will work together to expel him."
"Since you have all made plans, I have nothing more to say. Let's just leave it at that. I have just been resurrected and need to meditate for a while.
I won’t send it.”
"No, no, hahaha, then we'll go first."
The door of the underground secret room opened, and the old vampire and the ancestor of the dark werewolf left one after another, and then slowly closed with a creaking sound.
Then, everything fell silent.
Outside the door, the old vampire and the ancestor of the dark werewolf walked out side by side, and the sound of conversation was heard.
"Don't you think Alessandro's behavior is a little abnormal?"
"What's wrong?"
"He agreed so readily, so readily that he doesn't seem like the Alessandro I know."
"I feel the same way, but does he have a choice?"
"That's what I said, but I still feel a little uneasy."
"Then keep a closer eye on him. As long as the gate is opened and those legends come, even if he's unwilling, he won't be able to cause any trouble."
"You're right, then urge them to gather as soon as possible."
"I'll notify the ones on my side, and you urge the ones on your side, hurry up!"
"good"
Inside the door.
Grand Duke Toledo suddenly turned around and avoided his gaze. His face became gloomy and cold as if water was about to drip out.
Strands of blood magic overflowed uncontrollably, wandering around like a blade, directly shattering the dried blood pool into pieces.
Amidst the smoke and dust, a deep and hoarse voice roared, carrying with it an uncontrollable madness and resentment.
"Okay, okay, if you all want to get involved, then come on, I'll let you do it!"
"I just hope that when the time comes, you won't regret it."
"Destroy it, destroy it all!!!"
…
As mentioned earlier, if the main material plane is a big bubble, then the demiplane is a small bubble attached to the big bubble.
The point where the two come into contact is actually the portal of connection, and both entry and exit need to pass through here.
This is the safest way, but it doesn't mean there are no other ways to enter.
Another way is that if you determine the relative position of the small bubble on the big bubble, you can leave the main material plane and walk directly in the astral plane, and find the location of the small bubble along the coordinates.
Of course, this doesn't mean you can easily enter the demiplane.
Even though he was only in half a plane, the plane barrier was still extremely strong and could not be broken through easily.
In other words, if you want to break through, you have to gather enough strong people and be prepared to shatter the entire demiplane.
If the news of the vampires raising humans and animals were to be leaked, the Church of the Sun God would most likely retaliate in this way.
In ancient times, many demiplanes were destroyed in this way. Today, demiplanes are quite rare.
Of course, this is not suitable for the current situation.
This was because those legendary warriors wanted to use the demiplane as a safe haven and were not prepared to destroy it directly.
Therefore, they need to gather outside the demiplane, and then Grand Duke Toledo will open a door and let them in.
This is the reason why the old vampires and the ancestor of the dark werewolves did so much and used threats and inducements when Grand Duke Toledo was at his weakest.
At this moment, somewhere outside the demiplane, a flickering ball of light emitted invisible ripples, spreading in all directions.
With this as the coordinate, the space in the void suddenly twisted and shattered, turning into a rotating dark vortex that seemed to be able to swallow everything.
But a figure floated out from the middle.
He was wearing a long magic robe that dragged far in the air. Its dark red color seemed to have gone through countless years, and its whole body exuded a decayed smell.
He held a magic staff, almost as tall as himself, which he could use as a scepter.
A faint green flame always burns at the top of the staff, and the wails of countless dead souls can be faintly heard.
This is the horror of having your soul literally pulled out and burned in flames.
When he raised his head, all that could be seen was his emaciated body, with the soul fire burning in his eye sockets.
This is actually a legendary lich!
This kind of wizard who transforms himself into a lich at the end of his life has always been synonymous with powerful and dormant.
But now, there is one here.
And this is just the beginning!
