Normal updates, there will be explosive updates later.
"Ten years of service." After hearing this, Ryan immediately understood why the illithid did not use mental power to control the slaves, but only used the management methods of the mercenary group to command the mercenaries. Presumably he lost to this person called Blood The leader of the mercenary group with a bad face, so he had to serve for ten years as promised. As someone else's subordinate, if this illithid turned the entire mercenary group into its own slave group, I'm afraid the mercenaries would be the first to suffer. The regiment leader suppressed him.
Ryan did not answer immediately, which made the leader named Bloody Face think that Ryan was hesitant, so he continued: "Why, are you not confident in your own strength? Or do you think you can survive from my heavy siege?" Escape, and don’t forget that if you agree to my conditions, it will only cost you ten years at most, and the other companions can be saved. If you refuse, those stumps and broken arms will be your end."
Ryan shook his head. Seeing his refusal, the leader of the bloody face burst out laughing. He stretched out an arm and waved his five fingers across his chest, blocking Ryan's figure with his palm. At that moment, his open palm quickly clenched into a fist, and then a black flame burned from his arm. When the bloody-faced leader spread his fingers again to reveal his palm, a black skull appeared. It was suspended in the sky above the palm of the hand. Although the skeleton was only made of black flames, the details were very realistic. It looked as if a leader was really being burned by the flames.
Seeing such a scene, the dark elf maids were all stunned. They all looked at Ryan, because the power displayed by the bloody-faced leader opposite was exactly the same as what they had seen from Ryan before, and they compared it carefully. It seems that the spell of the bloody-faced leader is more powerful and the effect is more "pure", but what is the specific difference? These maids are not strong enough to tell.
Just because these legendary maids can't see it doesn't mean that Mother Hester can't see it. She gave the control to Ryan along the way in order not to expose her identity. After all, even if her body is... The avatar will also reveal powerful pseudo-divine power when it takes action, but Ryan can use some legendary-level spells to deceive others. Naturally, it is more convenient for her to serve as captain.
But now when Mother Herest witnessed another person actually using the same methods as Ryan's legendary spells, she naturally saw many clues between the two at the first time, that bloody-faced man The long spell is full of blood, evil and cold atmosphere. As soon as it is cast, it will make people feel like they are trapped in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. The feeling brought by Ryan's spell can only be called specious, at least Master Herest My mother had never felt a similar smell on Ryan. At most, she felt that Ryan's spell power was very powerful, that's all.
This feeling that is difficult to describe in words is like a skilled painter trying his best to imitate the work of an ancient master. Although there is no obvious difference between the original and the fake, in the eyes of a real artist, the two are very different. The charm and temperament between the two works are completely different. Mother Hester can clearly see that among the two people, Ryan is the one who simulates and disguises.
This discovery made Matron Herister's heart move slightly. She immediately thought of the pseudo-divine power shown by Ryan, which seemed to be somewhat different in quality from her own real pseudo-divine power. In the past, Matron Herister had also There are other demigod kings who are not unaware of this, but after all, Ryan is not a true demigod level king. It is normal to have some differences in power. Not to mention him, even the pseudo-divine power among the seven kings They are also different, so no matter who makes the move, others can easily tell the difference even if they are tens of thousands of kilometers apart.
"Could this be Ryan's biggest secret?" This thought flashed through the mind of Mother Herest, and then she set her sights on Faras, because at this moment Ryan stood beside Master Herest. In front of the mother, Mother Hester could not see the front of Ryan if she only observed it with her sight. On the contrary, she could observe Farasi standing beside her very well. The cloak covering them was made by Hester. Mother Reister refined it herself, and the isolation effect is effective for others. Mother Herest naturally has a way to not be affected by it. This can be regarded as a little trick to save Ryan and Faras from using the cloak. The chance of concealing the aura is not good for Matron Herest;
What appeared in the eyes of Mistress Herest was Farasi's angry look. This was really beyond Mistress Herest's expectation, because in her mind, Farasi was a peaceful woman. He is very humble when dealing with others. This kind of conduct is even praised by Matron Hester. Unexpectedly, he actually sees anger on this woman's face. Could it be that Farasi already knows about the bloody-faced leader mask opposite? His true identity, and what unknown hatred exists between them
At this moment, Ryan's voice finally sounded: "Bloody Rose, well, this is a very good cover-up method. Who would have thought that the real purpose of a mercenary group that relies on killing to survive in another world is not to rob wealth? , but to collect the corpses or souls of those truly strong men, Captain Bloody Face, I believe that the super strong subordinates you collected before have fallen into your hands and become part of your body."
Hearing what Ryan said, the bloody-faced leader suddenly changed significantly. It seemed that Ryan pointed out the most secret content in his heart. He said loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Those strong men only need to serve me for ten years." , got free and left, huh, are you trying to sow discord between me and my subordinates? Who are you?"
"Captain Bloody Face." Ryan didn't speak, but the Rakshasa demon subordinate not far from him spoke with a puzzled expression on his face: "It seems you should give us an explanation for what that guy said, right?"
"Explain, what's there to explain?" Unexpectedly, the leader of the bloody-faced group was the first to attack his subordinates. There was an unhappy tone in his voice: "Can't you tell that this is just the simplest way to sow discord? Is there a plan? Now we should attack these damn guys together instead of killing each other."
"It seems that what that guy said is true, Captain Bloody Face." A wry smile appeared on the face of the subordinate of the Rakshasa Demon. He sighed and said, "I have always been surprised that the Bloody Rose Mercenary Group is so rampant. Over the years, during the nine years I served you alone, I saw you send away six strong men, but after several years, I can't find any news about them, and these strong men have just disappeared."
"Hmph, their hands are all stained with blood. It's normal even if they hide to avoid the limelight." Bloody Face said in a disdainful tone: "The dark elves, illithids, and Rakshasa demons want to help outsiders, you two What does one mean?"
"Captain Bloody Face, are you starting to change the subject?" the Rakshasa demon subordinate said quickly: "Even if your explanation is true, then what about those subordinates who have worked for you over the years? There are nearly a hundred super strong people. , that is enough to form a powerful force that runs rampant in other worlds, but no matter how frantically those who hate us search, no one has found any trace of any of them, whether it is a corpse, a soul brand, or a used There are no items in the places I have been to, none of them, shouldn’t you, Captain Bloody Face, give us an explanation?”
"It's a joke. When people leave, they are no longer my subordinates. I don't care what they do." The bloody-faced leader flipped his wrist, and a long sword appeared in his left hand. There were countless mysteries engraved on the long sword. The runes should be some kind of powerful magic weapon. The bloody-faced leader held a sword in one hand and held up the black skull with the other. He said in a threatening tone: "Rakshasa demon, don't forget our relationship." We made an agreement between you and you will be free in half a year. Do you want to go back on your word now? Don’t forget how you were defeated miserably at my hands. The huge gap between you and me, even if it takes a hundred years, will still be gone. Don’t even think about surpassing me, just work with me to take down these nonsense guys now.”
"Then I will obediently wait until the end of the ten-year agreement and be killed behind your back." The subordinate of the Rakshasa demon sneered and said, "My bloody-faced captain, you are usually a taciturn person, but you are a decisive leader who kills. , why are you talking so much nonsense today? In fact, if you don’t say a word and remain silent, I will never believe anything. I can only bet that you fulfill your promise. But now, which path do you think I will choose? It’s the two of you. Well, this is a rare opportunity for us to get rid of the Bloody Rose, do we really want to sit back and wait for death?"
Ryan didn't expect that his words would actually cause the bloody rose mercenary group to start fighting within themselves. However, from the words of the Rakshasa demon subordinate, Ryan also believed that such thoughts had already taken root in the hearts of these subordinates. They were just afraid of the bloody-faced man. The leader's arsenal still has strength, but he is too weak to resist. Now there are four super strong men on Ryan's side, so much so that the bloody-faced leader has to use force to subdue them. The power of subordinates just gave these unwilling subordinates the opportunity to rebel.
These super strong men present, including Bloody Face and his three subordinates, as well as the strength pretended by Ryan, are all strong men at the peak of the legendary realm. Even if the strength gap between others and Bloody Face is still huge , but if five or six strong men of the same level are used to attack together, the chance of victory is not small. This is probably the reason why the subordinate of the Rakshasa demon decisively launched a war. There is not much time left for him, and he does not want to Being missing forever, now is the best opportunity. At least the four strong men on Ryan's side must be on the same side as him in order to survive. Whether things go smoothly next depends on whether they can win over more subordinates. The leader's suggestion was the other way around.
