Dong——
While Wu Liang was still deep in thought, the Magic Cube Dragon, leading the way in front, suddenly ca to a halt.
This unexpected stop almost caused the absent-minded Wu Liang to bump into him.
"Hey... what’s up? Why did you stop?" Wu Liang was a bit confused.
But then he heard the Magic Cube Dragon chuckling aningfully: "We’ve already arrived at the hiding place, and you have actually already seen the supernatural object."
Upon hearing this, Wu Liang instinctively began to survey the surrounding environnt.
Their current position wasn’t in so collection room or a hidden chamber, but rather in an ordinary corridor of this mansion.
Along the entire corridor, aside from the frescoes on the walls, the ornants on both sides, the ceiling chandelier, and the carpet on the floor, nothing special could be seen at all.
"Hmm? Wait, this crystal swan... is interesting, it’s probably this one."
Since it had entered his vision, how could the supernatural object’s hiding remain concealed from Wu Liang’s eyes?
Under the discernnt ability of the Ghost Compendium, he could see the specific information of any supernatural object.
As Wu Liang scanned the corridor, he surprisingly discovered the supernatural object effect displayed by the Ghost Compendium on an exquisite crystal sculpture ornant not far to his left.
This ornant was carved in the shape of a Black Swan. Along the way, there were quite a few similar ornants on both sides of the corridor; it wasn’t even the most exquisite and perfect among them, rely average at best.
Yet it was such an inconspicuous ornant placed in the mansion that displayed astonishing supernatural object effects—
[Gift of the Black Swan]
[Effect: The Black Swan can slowly absorb the resentnt around it and store it. When the storage reaches a certain level, the eyes of the Black Swan will glow red. At this mont, by eting its gaze, the resentnt can be absorbed to enhance the Fierce Ghost’s ability strength.]
[Note: The enhancent provided by the Black Swan ignores the current level of the Fierce Ghost and can be used repeatedly.]
The effect description was short; compared to the supernatural objects used by the Pioneer in the past, this was so simple it wasn’t worth ntioning.
But the final line, "ignoring the current level of the Fierce Ghost," made its effect rather extraordinary.
Because this ant that no matter what level of Fierce Ghost possessed it, it would be an extrely useful item!
Now, Wu Liang looked at the Magic Cube Dragon with so surprise.
"You... know that you can use this thing yourself?" Wu Liang said sowhat uncertainly.
The Magic Cube Dragon was instead surprised that Wu Liang’s first question was about this thing.
Shouldn’t this kid be curious about why he had placed the supernatural object so boldly in the corridor?
But in response to the question, he calmly said: "I know, so what?"
At this, Wu Liang pursed his lips and raised his thumb in admiration, saying: "You not choosing to use it yourself is a sign of true loyalty! It’s an honor for the First Emperor to have a subordinate like you."
Since the Magic Cube Dragon knew he could use the Black Swan for ability enhancent, if he had hidden it and used it secretly, perhaps one day he could have reached the level of a Venerable.
In such a situation, him not hogging it was truly unreasonable.
"No, it is my honor that the Venerable First Emperor trusts ." A flicker of an imperceptible lancholy passed over the Magic Cube Dragon’s eyes, which then imdiately turned into a resolute expression.
Then he looked at Wu Liang and straightforwardly asked: "What do you plan to do? Are you going to claim it for yourself? Let be clear, if it cos to that, I won’t spare our past camaraderie and will definitely fight to the death."
Though they had known each other for less than a month.
But the camaraderie of choosing to stay and guard the city in the War of Chaos was far beyond asurable by ti.
Let alone Wu Liang, who saved the entire Dragon City, even those ordinary Fierce Ghosts who chose to stay in Dragon City instead of fleeing probably had bonds closer than family.
The Magic Cube Dragon’s widespread praise among the Fierce Ghosts also stemd from its loyalty and accessibility.
This was evident from how it would occasionally stroll around the streets and reassure the crowd before the War of Chaos arrived.
"Haha, you think too little of ." Wu Liang patted the Magic Cube Dragon on the shoulder and said: "I said I was just taking a look, and I definitely won’t have any other thoughts."
After speaking, he turned around and walked toward the direction he ca from without looking back.
Waving his hand to indicate that it was ti to leave the mansion and return to guard Dragon City.
After all, resolving the issue with Zeus didn’t an Dragon City was absolutely safe; what if so Lord with wishful thinking wanted to co and sneak attack?
Watching Wu Liang’s determined departing silhouette, the Magic Cube Dragon was montarily stunned.
Both Wu Liang and himself were very aware that once he left this mansion, in the hands of soone with a Spatial Ability like himself, this Black Swan would never again be accessible to anyone.
Wu Liang walked with such determination, without a trace of greed for the Black Swan, which was truly incredulous for the Magic Cube Dragon.
He was loyal to the First Emperor, but why didn’t this kid want the Black Swan?
"Coming or not? I can’t go back by myself!"
Wu Liang’s voice ca from the end of the corridor; he had reached the door.
The Magic Cube Dragon quickly rushed over to open the space portal.
From this mont, it truly considered Wu Liang a friend for life and death!
Little did he know, at this mont, Wu Liang still had so curiosity about the Black Swan.
It’s just that the direction of his curiosity was sothing the Magic Cube Dragon could not fathom—
"Nightmare, you also noticed sothing’s off, didn’t you? The correspondence in this world is too coincidental."
"Of course, Boss, you also thought of Luo Fei, right?"
As Wu Liang and the Magic Cube Dragon hurried back to Dragon City, his mind was continuously conversing with Nightmare.
About that [Gift of the Black Swan], that peculiar supernatural object effect naturally made Wu Liang think of a girl he knew in the real world—Luo Fei.
Her Awakened Ability remarkably parallelled this item.
Both could enhance others’ abilities regardless of the level difference!
The most coincidental thing was, Luo Fei once said that before Wu Liang saved her, her codena was—Black Swan!
If Nightmare and the Magic Cube Dragon, and even the First Emperor had corresponding Fierce Ghosts in this world, it was within Wu Liang’s understanding, as this was the Fierce Ghost World within the Ghost Compendium, and it was normal for there to be counterparts with the real world Fierce Ghosts.
But why would Luo Fei, a human and even an Awakened, have a corresponding supernatural object?
What exactly is the Ghost Compendium hinting at?
Why did it design the Fierce Ghost World in this way?
With these questions, Wu Liang stayed in Dragon City peacefully.
Actually, in the ten days following the War of Chaos, not many Lords ca to cause trouble.
In the anti, only two Lords from neighboring cities ca to inquire about the situation.
After all, during the first twenty days, the war here had been extrely intense, with wave after wave of commotion, to the point that on the day of Zeus’s descent, the surrounding cities thought they were dood as well.
But unexpectedly, after that biggest commotion passed, the Pseudo-God Lords who had originally been stationed near Dragon City vanished without a trace.
For ten whole days, there was no new commotion, leading to all sorts of speculation.
In the end, unable to resist curiosity, they ca to investigate.
Under Wu Liang’s friendly and peaceful (or forced suppression), the two Lords who ca to investigate happily (or reluctantly) signed a soul contract of mutual non-aggression and mutual aid with the Magic Cube Dragon.
Their appearance happened to relieve Wu Liang’s urgent need.
For he also received a particularly tily piece of news from the Magic Cube Dragon—
The location of Mount Tai happened to be within the First Emperor’s realm "Great Qin"!
So, on the last day of the War of Chaos, Wu Liang quietly left Dragon City.
Heading to Great Qin!
