Lying in the cold, hard frozen ground, the Hydra Centaur Chief Bradda's eyes were numb, waiting numbly for the pursuer to come to his door.
He can think of the scene after his death, the ferocious dragon minions cut off his head with a sharp weapon, put it in a cloth bag or wooden box and took it back to the red dragon to receive the reward.
When he thought of the scene where the red dragon was holding his head and laughing heartily, his heart was full of hatred.
"I'm not reconciled!"
Death is not terrible, the process of waiting for death is terrible.
The hatred in Brada's heart was brewing, accumulating, and finally almost condensed into substance, spreading in all directions.
"Huh?!"
Outside the translucent eggshell-like dimensional wall of Tydanore's world, in the endless void that swallows all light, a pair of cunning eyes peeped in the darkness, and he discovered the negative emotions diffused from the barrier of the plane.
His body was like a tumbling black cloud, and he came to a position filled with negative emotions, and the smoky gray-brown breath was sucked into the tumbling black cloud, as if he was sucking in poison, his spirit shook and his whole body trembled.
"Quack quack, such a wonderful hatred~."
Emotions also carry information, and evil beings generally know the reasons for things.
A master-level centaur that was hunted down was simply a gift from the Lord of the Nine Hells.
"Do you want to live?"
"Who?! Who's talking?!" The hydra centaur chief looked around and saw only the cold, dark cave walls, and he even suspected that he had auditory hallucinations.
"Do you want to kill the group of enemies chasing you, counterattack the dragon, and cut off the heads of the enemies?!"
The voice sounded from his heart, and Brada was sure that a certain existence was communicating with him in some way, and he was puzzled.
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I can give you the power to kill all the bastards chasing you and counterattack the red dragon!"
"And you only need to pay some negligible price~, such as your soul."
In the darkness, Brada's face was cloudy and uncertain. Although he was only a grassland indigenous chief with limited knowledge, he also knew some basic common sense of the outer plane.
In times of crisis, he extended a "helping hand" in this way and asked for his own soul. This existence is the famous devil.
But what Brada doesn't know is that this mysterious devil who lives outside the dimensional wall can read his mind.
Of course, the power of the devil is not strong enough to read the thoughts of planar creatures through the barriers of dimensions. The most important thing is that the Hydra Centaur chief himself has a problem.
The strong negative emotions penetrated the dimensional wall, which is quite a data line, and the devil itself is a collection of negative emotions, proficient in the secrets of corruption, and this was established without the centaur chief not noticing. Spiritual connection.
"Can you really avenge me?"
"I can give you enough power to kill the enemy, comparable to legendary power, so that you can take revenge yourself, quack quack."
Legend is not Chinese cabbage. If it is replaced by other races, this devil, who has not exceeded the limit of legend, really has nothing to do.
But coincidentally, Brada's race is a centaur, and he is also a master centaur.
The centaur was originally the result of the devil's temptation to degenerate the extraordinary race - the centaur. The former king of centaurs could not completely eliminate the devil's corrupted power, and the remaining corrupted power was still hidden deep in the blood of the centaur.
With this introduction, everything is much simpler.
Under the sequential guidance of the devil, the Hydra Centaur chief's eyes were bloodshot, and the hatred in his heart was infinitely magnified, overwhelming the fear of losing his soul.
A distorted, ominous, and faintly crimson devil's contract appeared out of thin air. The centaur chief gritted his teeth and bit his finger to sign his name.
The moment the signature was completed, the devil's contract emitted an ominous glow of blood and was swallowed by the distorted bloody vortex.
"The contract is established! Quack quack!"
The devil's crazy laughter resounded in the heart of the centaur chief, and at the same time, a dark force gushed out from the void and poured into Bradda's body, causing the surrounding demonic energy to surge.
"Ah!"
The centaur chief let out an inhuman scream. He felt as if his body was being torn from the inside, and the pain in it was beyond the limit he could bear, and he couldn't enter a coma.
Under the influence of the devil's power, the twisted and ominous black and red magic lines spread rapidly on his body surface, quickly spreading all over his body, and the power of corruption increased accordingly.
The power has been raised to the legendary threshold, and the corrupted power gushing from the void stops.
Brada knelt on the ground and gasped for breath, the pain continued, but he didn't care, staring at his powerful hands with bewildering scarlet eyes, feeling the power flowing in his body.
"This feeling! The feeling of being empowered! It's amazing!"
At this time, Xunsheng, who was attracted by the screams, found the crypt. When he saw the demonized centaur walking out of the crypt, he couldn't help but rein in his horse.
The demonized centaur's scarlet eyes swept across the surprised crowd, and it opened its mouth to reveal its jagged fangs, making a sound like the neighing of a poisonous snake.
"Quack quack ~, let's start with you."
Before the gnoll in the front could react, he saw the demonized centaur chieftain disappear in place, and suddenly appeared in front of him the next moment. His palms were thrust into his chest fiercely, and came out from behind. A still beating heart.
boom!
With a hard pinch, the blood burst.
"First… "
……………………………
In Mordo Peak Forest, Jose frowned when his magic practice was interrupted by his family's communication request.
"What's up?"
"Master! Something is wrong! News from the Dragon Worship just came! Our bounty target, Hydra Centaur Chief Bradda, stepped into the legend and killed all the pursuers!"
"What?! Are you kidding me?!" Jose couldn't help but his face changed drastically, and he was shocked.
Is the threshold of legend so easy to cross? !
On the Tidanor continent, among a hundred master-level powerhouses, only one or two lucky ones can cross the legendary threshold.
This threshold cannot be crossed through hard work. It also requires luck and understanding, a real insight into the world, and an understanding and comprehension of the rules of power.
Jose doesn't understand this aspect for the time being, but he is very aware of the power increase brought about by stepping into the legend.
Take the hard-working fighters as an example. Before stepping into the legend, no matter how superb the combat skills of fighters, thieves and other fighters are, they are just mortals.
And crossing the threshold of legend is the leap of life level. The most intuitive proof is that the lifespan of the legendary powerhouse increases and he acquires various magical abilities.
The legendary rage of the legendary warrior directly violated the rules of physics, causing the warrior's body functions to grow explosively in a short period of time, transforming him into a little giant with a height of three or four meters.
Legendary thieves can escape into the shadow world physically, and disappear in the material plane in a true sense.
There are many similar examples, and it is precisely because of this that the legendary powerhouse can be called a legend.
It was precisely because he knew the strength of the legendary powerhouse that Jose could not believe it when he heard the news that the Hydra Centaur chief had broken through the legend, but he didn't think his subordinates would lie to him, and it was not good for the Dragon Cult to lie.
"What exactly is going on?"
"I don't know for the time being, I only know that all the surviving pursuers have withdrawn, and the Dragon Worshiper also sent the location of the incident."
"I see."
Jose ended the call, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he connected to Ergou: "Send the order! The defense force in the territory is doubled! Someone must keep watch at night..."
In fact, he knew in his heart that if the centaur chief really stepped into the legend and intentionally attacked his own town, then his arrangement would probably be useless, but it would be better than doing nothing.
"Luna Bloodfeather! Put down what you are doing right now! Take your people to the Bitter Cold Tundra to find the Hydra Centaur Chief Bradda, keep an eye on him! According to the news, he has already entered the legend, and, Find the place where he slaughtered his pursuers, there may still be some information left there."
"..."
The orders were passed on one after another, and after eight years, the war machine in Moduo Peak Forest was once again in full swing.
This time, the enemy they faced was a legendary strong man who was full of hostility, and he had too many reasons to destroy and destroy.
While the war machine in the Modo Peak Forest was running at full capacity, the Red Dragon's harpy family, the Chief of the Blood Feather Clan, set off with his clansmen, spent half a day flying over the prairie, and found the Centaur Chief just as the sun was setting. The scene of the massacre of the pursuers.
Looking at the fragmented corpse on the tundra below, Luna Blood Feather was shocked, and slowly landed with two followers to check the information of the corpse, trying to find information from it.
She endured the discomfort and walked through the battlefield to check. Except for a few monsters who were killed by being pierced through the heart, everyone else was torn apart alive, with stumps, broken arms, and internal organs scattered all over the floor.
"The enemy is brutal and powerful."
Luna Xueyu made a judgment in her heart, and then smiled self-deprecatingly.
If he was hunted down for eight years and spent eight years living and sleeping in the open, after gaining the power of revenge, he would be just as cruel.
As for the issue of strength, after stepping into the legend, even a thief who is not good at strength can at least improve to the level of a high-level fighter, not to mention that the centaur chief is a fighter himself.
Aww~.
Howling wolves sounded in the distance, which put some pressure on Luna Bloodfeather. There were winter wolves comparable to legendary powerhouses near the big glacier.
Suddenly, she felt something was wrong, and she woke up seeing the corpses all over the floor.
These corpses have been preserved for most of the day, why don't the beasts come to eat them? !
She carefully inspected the wounds where all the chasers had been torn apart alive, and noticed an ominous evil breath in the wounds.
It was a kind of faint, but extremely pure evil.
"This cold and dark evil, could it be... the devil?!"
As a dragon descendant born in the red nest and a high-level mage, Luna Bloodfeather understands the devil better than the master-level centaur chief, and she can almost conclude that this is the power of the devil.
"If the devil really intervenes, it will be troublesome."
Not long after, the harpies found the cave where the centaur chief was hiding, felt the remaining devil power inside, thoroughly confirmed the devil's intervention, and reported the relevant news to the red dragon.
Jose finished the call with the Harpy Familia, frowning and feeling complicated.
The Harpy's investigation results answered his doubts about the enemy's stepping into the legend, and also broke his last chance of luck.
"How could a good chase lead to such a thing?!"
Jose felt a toothache.
The devils of Baator Hell are the representative race of lawful evil in the multiverse. They are synonymous with cunning and conspiracy. At the same time, devils also possess extreme dark power.
When strength and wisdom are combined, one plus one is greater than two. If a devil is allowed to do something, the consequences will be disastrous.
However, the dimensional barrier instinctively repels demons, demons, and other evil existences in the lower planes, which prevents them from easily entering the material plane, and often can only act with the help of people inside the plane.
This is good news.
"emmm..., the devil..."
Jose thought about countermeasures in his mind, thinking about how to deal with this matter.
"Why should I do it myself? Isn't the Windtalker Alliance the most nosy meddler? Let them do it."
As soon as he thought of this, Jose's eyes lit up.
With the pissing nature of the Windtalker Alliance, if he knew that the centaur chief was tempted and depraved by the devil, he would really not let it go.
He is not afraid of defrauding his friends. As early as six years ago, Jinlong had already traveled the prairie with two friends, and visited Moduo Peak Forest for a while, and then left the Northland.
Therefore, even if the Windtalkers Alliance wants to send someone, it will be someone from the Northland Branch.
"good idea!"
Jose immediately ordered the intelligence leader, Hulk, to notify the resident personnel of Sunsail Port to go to the homes of members of the Windtalker Alliance and inform them of the fall of the centaur chief.
As Judging by How Se, the Windtalkers Alliance attached great importance to the devil incident and immediately issued a summoning order.
In the detached villa of the human aristocrat—Gilbert's family, middle and senior members of the Windtalker Alliance Northland gathered together to discuss the fall of the centaur chief.
"A fallen man who has turned to the devil? Who sent the news? Is it reliable?"
"It was sent by people from Moduo Peak Forest. I have sent people to investigate, and the investigation results show that it is true!"
"Hmph! You cunning dragon! He's using you as a weapon!"
"What should we do? Your Excellency Beifeng went to the south, we don't have legendary power?!"
"No matter what, if this matter is really related to the devil, we can't just sit idly by!"
"Athena is right! The influence of the devil has penetrated into the plane. This matter is not limited to the three dragons. We must take action, otherwise once the situation worsens, it will be even more difficult!"
"But we can't be led by the nose. Those three dragons are the instigators of this incident, so don't try to stay out of it!"
"I suggest to communicate with dragons and seek cooperation. Judging from their performance over the years, they are indeed very different from ordinary five-color dragons. Although they are not good dragons, they are not bad, and the power of Modo Peak Forest is incredible. ignore."
"Secondary! Who can I send to communicate?"
"..."
After arguing for an hour, the members of the Windtalker Alliance finally reached an agreement and sent envoys to bring the three dragons together to deal with the centaur chief who was bewitched by the devil.
Thank you for the reward of 300 coins from the Garden of Light of God, and 100 coins for 2-Boundless One.
