Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 75: The Trap Behind the Champion (1)
"Challenge of the Hell Dragon"? Sure enough, when one plan failed, a new one was born. What a trap that hides evil intentions and cuts off the firewood! Only a fool would foolishly challenge the tyrannical Hell Dragon. Wouldn't that automatically send it to Hades' door, giving him a legitimate excuse to kill him? As one of the most powerful races in the "Dead Space", the Hell Dragon has at least the strength of the ninth level and the ability to fly and fight in the air. Even the stronger Khufu, Taotao and Qitlei may find it difficult to last more than six hours. Although it is indeed a great temptation to soak in the middle area of the "Hell Magma Pool", haste makes waste, and we cannot take too much risk for this - if I am killed and wounded by the elites of the "Hell Volcano", even if the "grassroots masses" are fully mobilized, they can only hide aside and wave flags and shout. Who can we expect to confront the powerful Hell Dragon Clan and Hades, the Hell Dragon King? You threw out the bait, but I won't swallow it. Let's see what you can do to me.
"After much thought, I decided to break the old tradition by making the rights and honors that originally belonged to the Hell Dragon clan benefit all the volcano spirits with suitable abilities and development potential. This is a significant and far-reaching decision that can effectively promote the prosperity of the Hell Volcano. All of you who are present are elites of different races who have taken root in the Hell Volcano and have passed the harsh tests. You should naturally respond positively, set an example, and become a model for other volcano spirits to follow. You should shoulder greater responsibilities and missions. You must not be content with the status quo, stop making progress, and be satisfied with the little benefits you have already achieved, and lose your high spirits of striving for progress. That will only lead to gradual corruption and degeneration, and will become a serious obstacle to the further development of the Hell Volcano. Therefore, the Hell Dragon Challenge is not only an opportunity for you to gain more powerful strength, but also a spur to you, the elite aliens who are eligible for "special treatment". It must be held every month. It would be best if someone takes the initiative to accept the challenge . If you all shrink back and just want to enjoy your rights safely without assuming your due obligations, then I can only appoint one of you twelve to force him to accept the test. I, and the Hell Volcano, need warriors who are not afraid of hardships and are resolute by nature, not cowards who shrink back and dare not face challenges. "
As expected of the cunning and treacherous Nether Dragon King who has dominated the "Hell Volcano" for a long time, Hades added these words, which have cut off my retreat and forced me to accept the "Nether Dragon Challenge". Unless they are idiots, the other seven immersion qualified people who have not been subdued by me will definitely not take the initiative to challenge. The result of Hades' selection can be imagined. Naturally, he will choose Khufu, Qitlei and others to kill. Moreover also a great deterrent for Dizang, Gonzalez, and Silando who have not yet obtained the immersion qualification - they may be able to save their lives by maintaining their "freedom". Once they win the challenge and become one of the twelve alien elites with immersion qualifications, they will have to face the "Nether Dragon Challenge", and the ending is also very bad!
"Of course, facing the test of our Nether Dragon Clan, even if you are only required to hold out for six hours, most of you are still unable to do it, at least for now. Failure may be inevitable, but the success of the challenge is certainly gratifying. Even if you fail, you will not gain nothing. Losing to a truly strong person does not damage your honor. The important thing is to learn from the experience and lessons of failure and promote your faster growth. I hope you can understand my good intentions. In addition, since it is a battle, the main purpose is to test and train, so I will naturally not be too lenient. I must exert enough pressure to stimulate your potential as much as possible. I am afraid that in the process I am afraid that there will inevitably be injuries, but you can rest assured that those who are qualified to accept the "Hell Dragon Challenge" are all elites of the alien race. In the past, based on the principle of survival of the fittest, many have been sacrificed. As the saying goes, too much is as bad as too little. For the sake of long-term development in the future, we cannot waste our strength unnecessarily. Therefore, once the person being tested has no power to fight back and the Hell Dragon has completely taken control of the situation, I will terminate the challenge in a timely manner to ensure that there will be no more unfortunate deaths in the "Hell Dragon Challenge". And for the seriously injured, I will also give special treatment, and they can enter the middle area of the "Hell Magma Pool" at will to soak, absorb energy, and heal their injuries until they recover. "
Hey, what does this mean? If Hades guarantees the safety of the alien undead who are being tested, doesn't that mean that he will not be able to use the opportunity of the "Dragon Challenge" to legitimately kill Khufu, Chitre and the others? What does it mean? Did it suddenly find its conscience and really intend to strengthen the power of the alien undead on the "Hell Volcano"? Or did it see that I am determined and determined to seek development in the "Hell Volcano" and have infinite potential, and saw that things are impossible, so it wants to give up its hostile position and actively show goodwill to me?
But this thought was only fleeting, and I rejected it immediately. According to what Khufu and the others had said, and the strong performance and methods I had seen from Hades, it still had absolute advantage and initiative. My resistance was probably just a spark in its eyes, and it was absolutely impossible for it to take the initiative to compromise . Under the cloud of white terror, we must not underestimate Hades. If we were optimistic about the situation, a moment of carelessness might make all my previous hard work go to waste, and I would be completely defeated on the "Hell Volcano". What was Hades's plan? It really puzzled me.
I didn't deliberately hide my thoughts. Perhaps through the connection of the "Soul Contract", Khufu, who knew Hades's details well, felt my doubts and secretly reminded me, "Master Ah Dai, don't ignore the 'severe injury' state. Although it will not lead to death, there are many kinds of 'severe injuries' - lighter ones are just superficial flesh injuries, which are constantly attacked and accumulated to cause dying. With the help of the energy of the 'Hell Magma Pool', it will naturally be able to heal quickly. However, serious ones, such as the body being damaged too much and in tatters, causing a great consumption of life essence, or causing particularly heavy injuries in a very short period of time, causing the soul to be damaged, are likely to cause more severe consequences and require more time to recover. Especially serious ones may even cause a significant reduction in ability like me, and can no longer recover to the original state, and can only start practicing again. If you have to experience the destruction of a 'severe injury' every two or three months, the speed of improving your strength will be greatly affected, and it will be very good if you can even maintain your original state without declining."
So that's how it is. Hades, the old man, is really scheming. On the surface, he shows his "fairness" and guarantees that there will be no casualties. In fact, suffering "serious injuries" from time to time can have the same effect as killing them completely. If Khufu, Taotao, and Qitlei can't be further improved, how can I challenge and defeat the Hell Dragon through them and then subdue them? What can I rely on to overthrow Hades' rule? Such means seem even more insidious. Maybe Hades has killed too many people before and has reached his limit. He dare not continue to poison the lives of people, so as not to be punished by the chief judge. He has to settle for the second best and further restrict my expansion of power in the "Hell Volcano".
