Chapter 317 Small Crisis, Huge Rewards!
Thunder Realm.
It was a pseudo-realm created by William.
The realm supposedly could only be accessed by Epic professionals.
When the realm destroyed the arena, the Four Legendary Bigwigs could no longer sit back and do nothing...
They appeared at the same time and dispersed the lightning and thunder that was rapidly expanding
The arena that had been raised ten meters above the ground was lowered by at least half a meter...
After some time, the Thunder Realm finally dispersed.
Only one person, who was lying inside the arena, could be seen.
What about Andros?
He had turned into ash...
No!
He had turned into the dust in the air...
Andros’ physical body that the Viscount of Darkness had possessed was unable to endure the endless lightning attacks.
Many observers were befuddled.
They looked at each other, afraid to make any sounds. In this situation, they did not dare to ask any questions.
Was the Lord of Dawn a God?
Or was he the reincarnation of the Thunder God?
Gosh!
Lord William was beyond powerful.
He was the true champion of the Advanced professionals in the southern region.
Which of the Advanced professionals could withstand his Thunder Realm?
The dark horse for the championship had become ash.
It was not wise to antagonize William!
And Delosis was a little dazed.
He figured that if he were inside the endless Thunder Realm, he would have also died...
Burned Cinder and his companions rushed towards the arena because they were afraid that William would die.
The red-eyed Annie immediately hugged the bleeding William, who was flowing with electricity. She fed him with the Life Potion.
The effects of the Life Potion was impressive.
William’s Health Points instantly recovered, and his flesh rapidly healed. It was an incredible sight.
It didn’t take long before William regained consciousness under the watchful eyes of his companions and the Four Legendary Bigwigs.
Well...
He was blind.
He could not see anything, except for the information panel.
As he had exceeded his combat power limit by two levels, his eyes had been permanently damaged...
It was the reason why he did not wish to use the Left Hand of Thunder God. The side effects were horrendous!
He did not reveal his condition, in case Annie started shedding tears.
His Soul Power could be used to help him function as a normal person, although it might be inconvenient, and he would need some time to get used to it.
The Four Legendary Bigwigs seemed to sense something, but they remained silent. They intently looked at William’s left hand that was shimmering with lightning.
They were wary of the foreboding Left Hand of the Thunder God.
The emissary of the Palace of Darkness, Scarbrow, said in a deep voice, “We have to report this matter, regarding his hand...”
“D*mn! How dare you mention his hand!
“Tell me, how did the Viscount of Darkness appear in the conference?” The infuriated Roland Fecker fiercely asked, grabbing Scarbrow’s collar.
But the Palace of Darkness’ emissary was not a weakling. He pushed Roland off, and angrily shouted, “How do I know? Are you suspecting that the Palace of Darkness is colluding with the Dark World?
“It’s not easy for the Temple of Light and the Palace of Darkness to have peace. Do you want to break it?
“Are you worthy?”
“I’m not suspicious. I have solid evidence.
“Even if the headquarters don’t declare war, I’ll declare war on behalf of the southern region. Everyone would have to follow my order!” Roland shouted.
Irene had already erected a magical barrier. If outsiders were to know about the internal strife, it would create chaos.
She immediately tried to calm Roland and Scarbrow with the help of Carlos. It was not a good time to start a war.
Because it was more important to focus on the Left Hand of the Thunder God.
Although the reincarnation of a God was impressive, it was still a reincarnation.
Many reincarnations of the Gods had been discovered and were placed under secret surveillance. The reincarnations did not have the power to resist.
But William’s Left Hand of the Thunder God was the real deal.
But who was Roland?
A Temple Knight!
Even though he was poor in various aspects, he was still the symbol of Righteousness.
Moreover, he was the commander-in-chief of the Temple of Light in the southern region.
He was the Southern Guardian, as mentioned by William.
Roland Fecker sneered at Irene and her companions. “Are you going to deal with William in my presence? Are you tired of living?”
Irene and Scarbrow squinted their eyes, and mockingly looked at Roland.
The warrior, Carlos of the Mercenary Guild, might have looked like a brute, but he became a peacemaker at this instant. “What are you thinking? Going after William’s left hand? He’s the Blackleaf prince, and his parents are not weaklings.
“Even though we don’t know if his father is dead or alive, if his mother knew about this, she would fight you to death.”
Carlos had spoken the truth.
He had pointed out Irene and Scarbrow’s intention to go after William’s left hand.
The Half-Elf Prince recognized Carlos’s good intention. Perhaps, he had been in favor of the outsourcing strategy of the Dawn Mercenary Team all along.
Now, he was providing crucial support to William. Unfortunately, his intervention caused a rift between the City of Dawn and both the Magic Sanctuary and the Palace of Darkness.
Fortunately, William’s mother was still alive.
William also knew that Life’s Blessing could only be endowed once. It did not mean he would die, but his lifespan would be drastically reduced.
The problem of lifespan...
There were many solutions, but they were difficult to achieve and depended on the person involved.
When Roland was about to speak, William dragged his exhausted body towards them and slowly spoke, “The hand is mine even if it’s severed. You won’t get it unless you destroy my soul!”
He slashed his Left Hand of the Thunder God, which had fallen to the ground.
In the next second, the Left Hand of the Thunder God reattached to William’s severed hand.
The Legendary Bigwigs felt the subtle soul connection of the God’s hand with William.
Irene and Scarbrow felt that they had been placed in a difficult situation...
It was not a matter of going after the God’s hand. It was killing the Blackleaf prince.
Whether William was an exiled prince or not, as long as he was related to a God in any way, the Blackleaf Elves would not take it lying down.
Especially when the God’s hand was soulbound to William.
It indicated that William was favored by the Left Hand of the Thunder God, and he had great endowment.
William could have the potential to become a legendary ranger or even a sage.
Whoever wanted to go after the God’s hand, they had to kill the potential of a sage...
It would incur the wrath of the Blackleaf Elves.
The best-case scenario in that situation would be the death of a few legendary warriors.
If William died and his God’s hand were taken away, the Blackleaf Elves would try to reclaim it, whether they succeeded or not. Only by killing a lot of enemies, would the Blackleaf Elves be appeased. Then nobody would dare to take advantage of the Blackleaf Elves again.
Even if many geniuses were to be killed, the Blackleaf Elves would not be easily appeased, not unless they managed to massacre many legendary warriors.
Just like the Human Empires who had secretly massacred several legendary Blackleaf Elves.
If William’s death was remotely caused by the Magic Sanctuary or Palace of Darkness, Irene and Scarbrow had to die.
That was right.
Whether they killed William or not, they had to be sacrificed.
When the sages intervened, it was no longer a child’s play.
The fresh blood of the legendary warriors had to be used as sacrifices.
After all, there had been previous cases of low-level cultivators who obtained Godly items and were soulbound to the artifacts.
If anyone wanted to go after the Godly items, they had to deploy Advanced professionals.
If anyone used unscrupulous methods, they would be exposed by fortune-tellers.
However, the fortune-tellers did not have any combat power or enchantment skills.
They could only make use of their divination skills for a living...
Whoever made their moves in the dark, pieces of evidence would be left behind.
Irene and Scarbrow pondered for a long time before deciding to give up for the time being. They did not wish to court death.
Moreover, it was only a hand.
It was not the complete body of a God.
So the legendary bigwigs did not have the resolve to fight to the death.
William noticed the changes in their expressions and knew that he had averted a crisis. But it was hard to tell in the future...
He would have many missions to complete.
A sneak attack from an NPC would be considered a mission.
But, he would not have to hide his left hand again.
He could exhibit his full prowess and combat power without any restraint.
Although the usage would cause some serious damage...
William deeply inhaled and said, “Your problems are resolved. What about mine?”
“What do you mean?” Scarbrow raised an eyebrow. He was indignant that William had gone too far.
Since William had reduced the seeded contestant of the Palace of Darkness to ash, he had no reason to ask for more.
Scarbrow felt that William should ask for justice in the Dark World.
William grinned. He directly went to his supporter Roland and said, “I don’t think dark creatures are allowed to participate in the Magic Conference. What do you think?”
“Definitely not!” Roland shook his head.
“Is the Viscount of Darkness considered a dark creature?”
“If the Viscount of Darkness is not a dark creature, a devil can be a Dark Warrior of the Palace of Darkness. What do you think, Scarbrow?” Roland raised his brow at Scarbrow, who reluctantly nodded.
“Okay, how will this situation be resolved? I have no energy to fight the next round, but I want the first prize. I have killed the Viscount of Darkness. You must give me a good resolution.” William sighed and sat on the ground.
He had to ask for a resolution, as he could no longer fight.
His eyes were blind. There were no ways to make his eyes recover.
If he activated Soul Perception during a battle, he would be extremely vulnerable.
If he continued to fight with Delosis, he would be walloped.
Irene and her companions frowned.
They cursed at the blind William, who was trying to create an excuse for not fighting.
They realized that William knew about the rewards for the champion of the southern region.
To many professionals, the Viscount of Darkness was an unknown legendary character.
But to the leaders of the power centers, the status of the Viscount of Darkness was important.
It was a great accomplishment to seriously injure the Viscount and force him to escape to the Dark World.
From what they had perceived, the Viscount of Darkness did not die.
But his soul had been seriously wounded. Even if he returned to the Dark World, his rank and power would be greatly reduced. The absence of the Viscount would reduce a lot of problems for the legendary continent.
The Viscount of Darkness held the highest position in the Darkness Invasion, so his influence on the Dark World was immense.
Roland Fecker had mixed feelings when he gazed at William. The Viscount of Light was the nemesis of the Viscount of Darkness.
But the Viscount of Darkness had been badly defeated by William...
It was very unfortunate for the Viscount of Darkness.
For a short period, the Viscount of Darkness would be unable to retaliate. He would not have the time to seek vengeance either.
Whether it was the Gods’ continent or the Dark World, it was extremely difficult for a wounded soul to recover.
The four Legendary Bigwigs looked at each other. They had no choice but to give the rewards of the champion to William. He did not have to fight anymore.
But he could not receive the title of the top professional in the southern region.
William nodded at their decision.
The reward was more practical.
The title of a champion could help raise William’s legendary status...
But defeating the Viscount of Darkness was an amazing feat. The four power centers would not hide such a matter. Instead, they would publicize it.
At that time, he would be the emissary of Righteousness and the apostle of Light!
Tsk, tsk...
He wanted to overshadow Lancelot’s title of Viscount of Light...
William could also have a legendary status!
As for his blindness...
William turned his head towards the southeast and blinked his blind eyes.
He still remembered the pair of statue’s eyes in the temple of Thunder God.
