Chapter 467 - - 442 All troops are wiped out_3

—————✧✧✧✧—————

Ludius had yet to speak when Yu Xia suddenly broke the silence, “Ludius, we are friends. Between friends, we must be honest and cannot deceive or harm one another.”

Ludius was taken aback and turned towards Duge with a smile, “That’s right, we are friends. Please follow me.”

With that said,

he waved his hand, and the demon army parted to let them through.

Ludius led the way, with Duge and the others following him as they flew towards the town below.

The Black Dragon, having been freed from Yu Xia’s control, hesitated before speaking to Ludius, “Demon King Ludius, that woman has the skill to control others…”

“No, she is my friend, and will not harm me,” Ludius turned to look at the Black Dragon, shaking his head.

The Black Dragon shuddered violently.

Duge turned to look at the Black Dragon and smiled, “Reas, what just happened was merely a small joke. With the robust magic power possessed by Demon King Ludius, who could control him? And if he truly were under someone’s control, who here could escape his slaughter?”

Naked threat!

The Black Dragon Reas stared blankly at Duge, a flicker of terror passing through his eyes, and only one thought remained in his heart: Damn it, Ludius has really been controlled by them, what should I do?

“Reas, and your Black Dragon companion over there, the negotiating table needs your presence. Why not join us?”

Duge saw through the Black Dragon’s thoughts and invited him with a smile.

The situation in the Demon Realm was different from the Mortal Realm. The activity of the Demon King had taken Duge by surprise.

He needed to figure out exactly what the situation was with the Alien Warriors of the Demon Realm.

Therefore, he could not let any creature escape.

These two Black Dragons must hold the most power after Ludius, by controlling them, the other demons would be of no concern.

The two Black Dragons exchanged glances and transformed into human form, silently standing guard beside Ludius.

That terrifying woman could manipulate others to attack; neither of them was a match for Ludius and dared not act rashly.

…

“Ludius, I want to know what’s the deal with the Duge in the sky?” Walking side by side with Ludius, Duge pointed up into the sky and asked.

“My friend, are you playing coy? Is not Duge the most powerful Alien Warrior?” Ludius laughed, “If I’m not mistaken, you must be the real Duge, right?

Who else but you could have killed the Solar God? Tell me what your keyword is, and I can reveal more secrets about the Alien Warriors of the Demon Realm to you, as well as help you get the spiritual power reward that sparked the divine-demon war.”

Holy shit!

He knows everything.

Duge was profoundly shocked.

He thought the Demon Realm was easy to navigate.

Now it seemed the Demon Realm was much harder to deal with than the Mortal Realm, with the demons’ unpredictable schemes. Alien Warriors could easily fall into traps without noticing.

If the most fundamental secrets of the Alien Warriors were leaked, then for the Demon Kings, the Alien Warriors would be mere playthings in their hands.

Unless they could awaken a skill like his People’s Protection, that defended against mind-control magic, no one could escape the control of the Demon Kings.

Duge considered several possibilities, even the idea that Alien Warriors from other stars might learn everything about him through skill-sharing among the warriors of Qiyuan Star.

The only thing he hadn’t considered was that the Alien Warriors of the Demon Realm were controlled by the Demon Kings.

No wonder the Demon Realm’s forces hadn’t invaded the Mortal Realm yet?

These Demon Kings must be using his name to gather more Alien Warriors to aid them.

The Demon Kings must have realized that the skills of Alien Warriors could affect the Ancient Deities!

Lucky for him, he had People’s Protection, and he had Yu Xia by his side. Otherwise, if he rashly entered the Demon Realm, he would truly die without knowing how…

Wait.

Even without People’s Protection, he shouldn’t be controllable, for he had both Sea God’s Power and Solar Divine Power. If even Divine Power couldn’t defend against the Demon Kings’ mind-control magic, then the Ancient Deities wouldn’t have been able to suppress them in the Demon Realm for so long.

The Holy Light of the Angels should also be able to fend off the corruption of mind-affecting magic!

However, neither Divine Power nor Holy Light was something Alien Warriors possessed…

Yu Xia’s skill had worked wonders, and Ludius had opened his heart to them completely. Duge didn’t bother to beat around the bush and asked, “Ludius, how many Alien Warriors have you controlled?”

“I have five Alien Warriors like you under my command,” Ludius boasted proudly, “I must say, Duge, your reputation is very useful. Just by dropping your name, those foolish Alien Warriors blunder into my trap without any guard, revealing their secrets to me. I’m secretly training them, just waiting for them to grow strong and then we’ll immediately attack the Mortal Realm, tearing apart those foolish Ancient Deities…”

Gulp!

Nobb quietly swallowed his saliva and immediately switched to Duge’s skill.

Yu Xia remained calm by Duge’s side; with her, they always had enough confidence and assurance.

Ludius looked at Duge, his eyes full of admiration, “Duge, you truly are the most powerful Alien Warrior. I had no idea that in just a short span of a month, you would kill Bordeluna.

You have chosen wisely. The Ancient Deities are arrogant, foolish, and dismissive. If you went to them, they would treat you as an enemy. Only by cooperating with us do you stand a chance to win. You help us kill the Ancient Deities, and we help you secure a top-ten finish.”

Sigh!

Duge inwardly sighed, thankful he had come down early.

Otherwise, once the Demon Kings developed the skills of the Alien Warriors and led them into battle, the Mortal Realm, being in disarray, would stand no chance against them.

Most who would be attracted by the name Duge were likely to be warriors from Qiyuan Star, right?

Nan Youlong’s previous approach wasn’t wrong; codes and alliances held vast drawbacks. Once one got used to cooperating and began to trust a companion, it could potentially lead to total annihilation.

Duge fell silent for a moment before asking, “Ludius, what are the keywords of the Alien Warriors you’ve gathered?”

“My friend, you first tell me your keyword. Isn’t that what friends should do, be honest with each other?” Ludius inquired.

“Justice,” Duge said with a smile, “my keyword is justice.”

“And theirs?” asked Ludius.

“Temptation and bravery,” Duge fabricated two keywords on the spot and inquired with a smile, “Now it’s your turn, Ludius.”
