Chapter 1822: Chapter 1822: Demigod Hellhound
Li Yao knew this would happen, so this ti he was fully prepared. He took out a seal and simultaneously held up the Power of the Stars, saying, “Let introduce myself. My current position is a Dark Camp Warlord and the commander of the Expeditionary Force. My usual position is one of the five Legion Commanders of the High Elf Kingdom, the Legion Commander of the Withered Sun Legion. Isn’t that qualification enough?”
The mayor was stunned when he saw the seal, because it was no different from before. Being one of the five legion commanders indicated that Li Yao was indeed a prominent figure.
More importantly, the Power of the Stars was a weapon that only the most powerful and courageous people could wield.
“You also ntioned that we want to side with the Undead Clan.” The mayor was still not at ease.
Li Yao took out another seal representing the inheritor of the Undercity: “I am the current inheritor of the Undead Queen, who was once the Ranger General Windrunner, so I naturally have the authority.”
Only then did the mayor say, “If what you say is true, we are willing to pledge loyalty to the forr General Windrunner.”
As he spoke, the mayor knelt down on one knee, and the guards behind him hurriedly did the sa. If they had a choice, they would have preferred to stay here, but now they had beco undead. Although they were already dead, they had escaped the grip of magical addiction, and they could still see the wonderful world outside, so they had no objections.
The rcenary group secretly prepared for a fight, thinking Li Yao was stalling for ti, but unexpectedly, he actually won them over, which left them incredulous.
“Damn, people are really infuriating by comparison, so this can actually happen,” Iron Tower muttered.
Others also twitched their lips, finding it hard to believe the scene in front of them, yet they increasingly understood the benefits of gaining a higher status in the Old God.
They began to consider whether they should also secure so kind of status for themselves.
“For now, I accept your entry into the Undercity. We’ll have to wait until I’ve dealt with the nearby monsters and the sub-dinsion ogres before proceeding,” Li Yao explained.
“We understand,” the mayor said. “Since the Warlord is leading the army to attack the sub-dinsion ogres, why co to us?”
Li Yao smiled, “Rest assured, this is just my avatar. I ca here because the sub-dinsion ogres sohow discovered an Evil Energy Node and have been using it to greatly enhance their magicians’ power, hence I must eliminate the root of the evil energy.”
“The Array is still on the lower level, but the monster there is very powerful, and over the years, it has spawned many twisted elental aberrations, which are difficult to handle,” the mayor said.
“We’ll handle all that ourselves as long as we can pass through this place,” Li Yao said.
The mayor breathed a sigh of relief; he was just afraid Li Yao would ask him to dispatch troops, and he felt it would be best to keep watching until he understood the real situation.
Li Yao, of course, wouldn’t force them, understanding it would be unwise to rely on them.
“Oh, by the way, before anything else, I’d like to et the head librarian here,” Li Yao said.
“The Warlord is interested in ancient books too?” the mayor asked.
“Naturally interested,” Li Yao took out the Dragon Slaying Guide: “However, this ti, it’s not for ancient books but the librarian’s works.”
“So it’s for Quel’Sela,” the mayor sighed, gesturing for Li Yao to follow him, explaining along the way, “Quel’Sela was once a legendary sword. Though its significance is not as high as the Star Bow, it isn’t far off. It symbolizes the Empress’s envoy and represents her supre authority. Back then, the Prince was the Empress’s most loyal advisor and a great noble. The Empress sent him to establish this city, earning him the title of Prince. Unfortunately, we’re trapped here. This sword sacrificed most of its power to imprison a demigod-level demon at the Array’s center, and my old friend, who you’re looking for, has been researching how to restore this sword and found what he believes to be a way to undo it. Unfortunately, we can’t get out, and we left trapped here, he abandoned this book, and it was unexpectedly found by Irina, alas.”
As they talked, the group reached a library, where the mayor whispered to the librarian before signaling Li Yao and his team to step forward.
The librarian was an elder: “Young kin, I didn’t expect you to be interested in restoring this glorious weapon; I am gratified to see the younger generation rember the forr glory and symbolism.”
“Although the great Empire has fallen, as long as the bloodline of the kin continues, such spirit should be everlasting,” Li Yao said solemnly.
“Well said; may the spirit of the Empire endure forever,” the librarian said, producing a rusty weapon: “This is the embryo of Quel’Sela, now it’s yours. But I must tell you, restoring it is fraught with difficulties. You need to find a strong adult giant dragon hero, preferably a Red Dragon or Black Dragon, and use their powerful Dragon Breath for reforging. Then, you’ll need primal blood to re-activate it. Slaying a dragon… this was unimaginable in ancient tis but is also the only way.”
The team mbers rolled their eyes. It’s still unimaginable now, isn’t it? If you kill a dragon, countless mbers of the Dragon Clan will hunt you down; try killing one.
However, considering the stringent requirents to reforge this weapon, one can imagine its power, no wonder Li Yao said it’s a hundredfold better than anything else they’ve obtained.
“I will do my best,” Li Yao said, taking the weapon.
“Welco to visit the library anyti in the future,” the librarian said.
“Certainly,” Li Yao smiled, nodding as he followed the mayor to the next level.
As the next level opened, the mayor bid farewell to the group, who tactfully refrained from asking about the weapon.
Upon reaching the second underground level, the group was amazed to discover a vast plaza, with only buildings along its edges.
Many elental aberrations road the plaza, but they weren’t the main focus. When the group looked at the enormous creature in the center and used scanning magic, they could only see the final label: Demigod.
The entire team was dumbstruck, facing a demigod was insane.
Li Yao seed to know their thoughts: “That’s right, it’s a demigod. But think about it, it’s just a big battery now, even if it had imnse energy, after being drained for ten thousand years, it’s already depleted.”
The group realized, wasn’t that true? If the opponent still had more energy, that Prince wouldn’t have killed everyone.
Nonetheless, they still felt nervous, having attempted to kill a world-level chief with insufficient strength only to get thrashed, let alone a demigod.
Such a formidable enemy is beyond what players at this stage could imagine or contend with.
“Don’t worry, this ti you don’t need to take action, just clear out the surrounding monsters. I’ll handle the rest myself,” Li Yao said confidently, looking at the two-headed dog serving as a battery with eyes full of light…
