Defying the Fate of Beheading

Chapter 220: Shared Feasting Aftereffects The Black Swan Fell Ill


Louis felt the earth-shattering changes happening to his body and didn't speak for a moment.

"The power of the divine...?"

If this power were directly rooted in his body, Louis might have been a bit panicked.

But he could clearly feel the divine power flowing like a stream into the Guilty Dragon Armament.

This actually made him breathe a sigh of relief.

The Guilty Dragon Armament is the most peculiar force he has seen so far.

Rather than calling it a system of power, it's more like a living weapon.

The potential of this living weapon is terrifyingly high.

So far, none of the most dangerous beings he has encountered could affect the Guilty Dragon Armament.

During the Jade Phoenix Alliance mission, he could basically confirm that the force awakening the Earth Serpent's remains from their slumber was precisely the Guilty Dragon Armament.

And the Earth Serpent itself is a terrifying existence, no weaker than any divine being.

The Guilty Dragon Armament dared to swallow such a terrifying creature as the Earth Serpent.

So it's reasonable for it to devour divine powers.

Besides... he doesn't quite understand the nature of the Guilty Dragon Armament.

There are too many mysteries surrounding it.

It can devour the Earth Serpent.

It can filter out the curse of the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm.

The Hero's Sword, polluted by the evil power of the Abyss's Four Gods, could also be used by it as a charger.

...

All these situations suggest that a great terror is hidden behind the Guilty Dragon Armament.

But since it's already in his possession, he no longer worries.

After all...

Throwing all sorts of chaotic systems into the Guilty Dragon Armament, creating a messy stew, might just cultivate an obedient Gu King.

So instead of worry, he feels relief.

This thing is like his air purifier, used to filter high-risk power systems whenever needed.

He's already used to it.

However, maybe due to the insufficient power gathered from the divine remnants, the divine power continued to pour endlessly into the Guilty Dragon Armament, but ultimately didn't hatch a new power system.

——It seemed more like a seed of power was left behind within the Guilty Dragon Armament.

The seed, though lacking nourishment, has yet to germinate.

But it's indeed taken root, just waiting for the moment to sprout.

With this uneasy feeling, Louis followed the Moonlight Cat Cat Group to complete the cleanup of monsters in this area.

When the Moonlight Cat Cat Group returned to the Adventurer Guild's gathering area, it was evident that everyone looking at them now bore expressions of respect.

Most noticeably, the representative from the Lokeshi Empire's Adventurer Guild came directly to Louis.

"Mr. Caesar, are you interested in changing your residence area? The Lokeshi Empire's Adventurer Guild has a special recommendation spot still available, and we are willing to serve you anytime."

Louis looked at Alice.

He was unaware of what the special recommendation spot specifically meant, as Alice had more authority on matters related to the Adventurer Guild than he did.

Alice pondered for a moment, seemingly recalling something:

"That special recommendation spot probably refers to a direct recommendation to become a titled adventurer!"

"My brother got one before, and for the Adventurer Guild, it is indeed considered a great benefit."

The representative of the Lokeshi Adventurer Guild paused, looking at Alice:

"May I ask who your brother is?"

"It seems you prefer calling him the 'Empire's Mad Dog'."

The representative hissed, instinctively touching his jaw:

"Tony King Ashford?"

"Indeed, that's my brother."

"Ah, the Ashford Family? My apologies."

The representative showed a helpless look:

"Hans's luck is really something else."

Alice curtsied, smiling demurely:

"So, we'll get in touch with President Hans about this matter later."

The Lokeshi Guild representative nodded in understanding and directly turned to leave.

Alice looked teasingly at Louis:

"Looks like you're in for something, with a new legend causing such an impact, Tino City is bound to get lively for a while."

Louis snorted and said:

"Don't you know whether I'm a legend or not?"

Alice spread her hands and said:

"Others don't believe it; can the power a normal legend wields compare to what you demonstrated this time?"

"Wait and see, it's just that the news hasn't reached Hans yet; otherwise, he would've already arranged that special recommendation spot for you."

After contemplating, Louis said:

"What if I said I used a special tool to temporarily raise my profession level, and my usual state isn't that strong, what then?"

"I think they probably wouldn't believe it; there are many adventurers out there who like to hide their true strength." Alice said with a cheerful grin, "You might as well just admit it."

After some thought, Louis said:

"Doesn't matter, after some time, the power I can unleash, while not quite legendary, might justify reaching this level temporarily."

Alice paused, looking Louis up and down, then cursed:

"Level ten?"

"Yes, the transformation is just around the corner."

...

After the group returned to their residence, they were requested by the Lokeshi Empire's officials not to leave the area.

Many people were bewildered.

But Louis knew this was due to the Lokeshi Empire investigating the information on the new great sin.

If it were outside, that would be one thing.

But if the great sin itself was within the assassination unit, then that would be a major issue.

The assassination unit is not an organization completely unaware of the great sin.
