1129: Signal activated, trolls rejoice
That guy who killed Su Liang, Li Changkong didn't know whether to call him cold-blooded or terrifying.
After witnessing the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor, coupled with the mysterious being who gave him the System before, he gradually realized that there were still many things in this World that he needed to understand.
There are always people stronger than you, and heavens beyond heavens; today, he had truly witnessed it.
Recalling his previous actions, they were indeed a bit reckless.
It was also the appearance of leading Li Village to rapid development and smooth sailing over the past few months that had made him a little lost.
Thinking about it fundamentally, the fact that Li Village could develop to this point, even being granted land as King and establishing its own country, was essentially not strongly related to his Li Changkong's ability.
If it weren't for the System's help, Li Village would still just be that small Village shrinking its head on the Magic Continent, struggling to survive under people's discrimination and the threat of monsters.
Even looking at normal development, Li Village would most likely have been skinned, had its bones devoured, and eaten completely by the monsters under The Black Night in its normal state, probably within the few days after Su Liang cut off the spiritual lamp!
If Nie Fangping, this System's former Host, hadn't helped today, he would definitely have paid a heavy price!
The appearance of the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor and Nie Fangping's help sounded an alarm for Li Changkong.
Since the System had those former Hosts, he would sooner or later also become a former Host of the System!
Regarding this point, Li Changkong had actually already been mentally prepared after getting Ning Buxiu's contact information.
The System would most likely not be able to accompany him for his entire life; future matters would require him to rely more on himself!
Prudent decisions and actions were the foundation for long-term development.
He really should learn to stand on his own; this was a day that would come sooner or later.
With countless thoughts in his mind, Li Changkong's expression regained some seriousness.
After opening the System panel.
He opened Nie Fangping's chat window.
"Remember to pay up."
This was Nie Fangping's message.
And the moment he saw this sentence, Li Changkong received an item from the System.
[This rescue request incurred a toll fee of five hundred tons of black crystal. The Host can pay in installments.]
Five hundred tons of black crystal was equivalent to five hundred days of electricity bills for Western Main City and Electric Light City.
Paying this fee on top of the existing electricity bills, Li Changkong also felt it was considerable pressure.
Fortunately, it could be paid in installments.
Otherwise, after taking over so much territory later, it would be difficult to spread out the power facilities all at once.
Looking around the ruins of the Royal Palace, Li Changkong had Raine send a team of Soldiers to collect the black crystal on the ground.
During the recent great battle, under the terrifying range of impact, the number of dead Dark Monsters was not small.
Even if the drop rate for these Dark Monsters was low, there would be at least over ten tons of black crystal!
However, after just a few breaths, Raine came to report: "Master, there is no black crystal. These black crystals... seem to have been eaten up by those bugs."
These words made Li Changkong's expression stiffen slightly, but he adjusted quickly: "That's right, after all, the allied army has arrived, they need to eat their fill."
As he spoke, a heavy gust of wind suddenly arose in this space.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
Amidst the whistling wind, everyone present noticed and looked towards the area of the Royal Palace ruins.
"The Magic Servant Inheritance has appeared," Li Changkong murmured.
...
Dozens of kilometers away from the Royal Palace of Vog Country.
In a cold, secluded mountain forest enveloped by darkness, a scarlet Array Formation suddenly appeared.
The next moment, a figure tumbled out of it in a sorry state!
"Cough cough!"
Lying on the ground coughing up blood foam, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's hair had turned somewhat gray, as if it had lost nourishment, and his overall aura had significantly weakened.
He had good means of preserving his life and escaping, but such methods were often accompanied by considerable consumption.
The current him was far from as powerful as he was at his Peak, so naturally, he couldn't calmly use this kind of escape Array Formation.
Even after devouring Su Liang's blood before using the Array Formation, it still didn't offset much of the power consumption.
The only thing to be thankful for was that he had finally saved his life.
As the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor lay on the ground, breathing weakly, similar thoughts to Li Changkong's also arose in his heart.
He had been too careless, thinking that no one in this world could threaten him except for that one existence.
This led him to suffer a great loss today!
If he had been a bit more cautious, restrained himself a bit, and consciously retreated, he wouldn't have encountered this.
He himself didn't care for the treasures of this World; now, because of his momentary greedy nature, he had harmed himself and even exposed himself!
Overall, it was truly a huge loss!
While feeling slightly annoyed, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor suddenly felt an itch on his chest.
Subconsciously reaching out to scratch, afterward, the White-Haired Old Man's movements suddenly paused, and his pair of blood-red pupils stared intently at his chest.
Clearly visible, a striking mark had appeared on his chest at some point!
When this mark appeared on its own, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor could even more clearly sense that the blood belonging to Su Liang within his body suddenly seemed to have a will of its own, frantically converging into this mark on his chest!
Like two broken pieces, they converged at this moment!
"What is this?!" The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's tone was somewhat hurried, but more so filled with questions and unease.
Apart from erupting with increasingly deep black light, the mark on his chest didn't bring him any discomfort.
As his chest rose and fell with his breathing, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's heart was also faintly beating.
And during the process of his heart beating, the rhythm of this pulse instantly crossed space, directly transmitting through the mark!
The central area of the Magic Continent.
The Dark Troll, who had originally been in silence, suddenly opened its huge, blood-moon-like eyes at this moment!
As its pupils opened, the terrifying Dark Demon's face exploded at this moment with eight parts surprise and excitement, and two parts unexpected confusion!
"The signal... actually got out!"
The Dark Troll's mood hadn't fluctuated so strongly for who knows how many years.
Emotions, within their race, were actually a symbol of weakness.
This was also something that only evolved after his strength was greatly reduced as a Clone.
The original complete Dark Troll would never reveal such emotions; the complete him would more likely follow the instinct to devour, which was their talent for reaching stronger Realms.
The current Dark Troll didn't care about this point of himself; all his attention at this moment was on the pulse rhythm that was affecting his heart's beating!
The mark he had planted on the bastard who sealed him had been activated!
His other Clone would also sense his location, and it wouldn't be long before he could await his Clone, and even the race behind him!
"Although I don't know exactly what caused it, none of that matters anymore."
Although the strength of the other Clone was comparable to his own, that Clone had not been imprisoned, nor suppressed by sealing power!
Just based on this point, he could completely overturn this World, help himself regain freedom, and even fuse back together to return to his Peak!
What Son of Destiny, what sealing power, what Black World and Black Abyss, or even that guy playing tricks on the Suppressing God Pillar, none of it, absolutely none of it, mattered anymore!
"When my Clone returns, the Heavenly Dao will shatter, and all living beings shall perish!"
"Hahaha!"
The muffled laughter shook the universe.
Large areas of lightning converged into an ocean, surging and turbulent like angry waves!
Invisibly, it actually charged the Suppressing God Pillar with another wave of electricity.
