Turk’s actions were too fast, so fast that Wang Xiao could not react at all. The sincere smile was still on his lips when his fingertips had already touched Wang Xiao’s chest.
His neat nails were suffused with a faint metallic luster. The battle armor made of special fiber was instantly cut open and he would pierce Wang Xiao’s heart in the next second!
In the blink of an eye, Wang Xiao did not even have time to be afraid.
Just as he felt a chill on his chest, he heard a soft bang. A thin membrane-like flesh wing suddenly spread out in front of him and blocked Turk’s fingertips!
However, even though his fingertips were blocked, the huge force passed through his flesh wings.
Wang Xiao felt his chest tremble, as if he had been swung by a huge hammer.
When he came back to his senses, he had already flown five to six meters away!
“Pfft!”
A mouthful of dirty blood sprayed onto the ground. Then, a dull pain came from his chest. Although it was so painful that Wang Xiao did not dare to breathe, he was lucky to have survived.
“It would have been better if you had come a little later…”
Wang Xiao held his chest and smiled weakly. “The two of us would have been free.”
“Hmph!”
A soft snort sounded. Wang Xiao opened his eyes with difficulty and saw that five to six meters away, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] had spread its single wing and was where he was just now.
At this moment, Turk’s voice sounded faintly. “It’s indeed you…”
Turk’s figure was covered by the wings of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. Wang Xiao could not see his current expression, but from this voice, he could guess that he definitely had that strange smile on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] retracted its wings and gently landed beside Wang Xiao.
Wang Xiao helped the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] stand up and took out a [Recovery Potion] to drink. Then, he looked at Turk and asked, “You didn’t want to kill me at all just now, right?”
Turk smiled ambiguously, but his eyes had been sizing up the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. “This is our holy beast, right? Although it’s only in its youth, it already has some domineeringness of a holy beast.”
Seeing that Turk did not answer directly, Wang Xiao smiled strangely and asked, “How do you know that it’s a holy beast? I remember that you don’t have any way to distinguish it, right?”
“Yes and no.”
Turk nodded and shook his head. Then, he actually patiently explained, “Purple Star soldiers can override the [Contract] under certain circumstances. This ‘certain situation’ refers to the lord’s life being in danger.”
“I already knew that the holy beast had become your soldier, but I wasn’t sure which one it was, so I kept pretending to be stupid to make you let down your guard. Then, I took you by surprise and gave you a fatal blow. Then, bang—”
Turk raised his hand and made an explosive gesture. Then, he looked at the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] with a faint smile. “The holy beast appeared on its own.”
From the moment the [Undead Swordsman] was defeated to Wang Xiao’s appearance, only a few minutes had passed. For Turk to make such a plan in a few minutes, his personal ability could be seen.
Unfortunately, he had encountered Wang Xiao this time.
After hearing Turk’s entire plan, Wang Xiao did not have a shocked or regretful reaction. He only nodded thoughtfully. “As expected, it’s similar to what I thought. ”
Wang Xiao’s tone was very calm, as if he was muttering to himself while thinking. He did not feel like he was showing off his intelligence or pretending to be calm.
Turk could not remain calm at that moment. This was because if Wang Xiao really saw through his plan, it meant that the other party was already prepared to summon soldiers. Then, this test he had planned would be meaningless!
However, before Turk could think of another way to test him, Wang Xiao nodded in admiration. “However, although I predicted your prediction, I ignored your speed. At that moment just now, I really didn’t have time to summon soldiers.”
“Didn’t have time?”
Turk was stunned when he heard this. Then, he realized what this sentence meant. He suddenly widened his eyes and asked, “It’s indeed a holy beast, right?”
“I didn’t say it wasn’t.”
“Of course it’s to shatter your lord core, annex your territory, and then take over all your soldiers’ contracts.”
Turk replied truthfully without holding back. Although he was not Huang Tingwei’s match, he was more than enough to deal with a level three Wang Xiao.
In his opinion, from the moment Wang Xiao stood in front of him, there would no longer be any variables in this matter.
As he spoke, Turk bowed slightly and assumed a battle-ready posture.
However, this posture only lasted for a second. Turk straightened up and frowned. “Before I attack, can I ask you a question?”
“Of course…
Wang Xiao subconsciously wanted to nod, but when he opened his mouth, he realized that Turk’s attention was not on him at all. Instead, he was looking at the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] beside him.
After being slightly stunned, Wang Xiao pointed at the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] and probed uncertainly, ‘You want to ask it a question?”
‘Yes.”
Turk nodded heavily with a serious expression. Wang Xiao immediately felt a little confused.
Soldiers above gold quality would gain intelligence, but this was only limited to combat. Due to the existence of a [Contract] with their lord, they could communicate simply as if they had telepathy. However, they still could not understand the meaning of “language”.
Turk was so powerful that it was impossible for him not to know this common knowledge. However, he suggested asking the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] a question. Could it be that he had a way to communicate with soldiers?
As soon as this thought appeared, Wang Xiao was immediately interested.
Although lords and soldiers could communicate simply through the [Contract], if they could master this method, they could communicate on a more complicated level. It would be greatly beneficial to the nurturing and combat of their soldiers in the future!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao thought for a moment and patted the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. The latter immediately understood and took a step forward.
“Thank you very much.”
Turk first thanked Wang Xiao before casting his gaze at the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon].
Just as Wang Xiao thought that he was about to activate his skill or take out some item, Turk simply said, “Hello, my name is Turk. I’m from the Purple Star like you.”
…That’s it?”
Wang Xiao was stunned.
However, Turk continued, “This lord of the Blue Planet is not strong. He can even be said to be very weak.. Why do you acknowledge him?”
Hearing this question, Wang Xiao could not help but prick up his ears.
He had also heard about the Purple Star race. The only thing they respected was strength. Even if they contracted soldiers, they would rather die than submit if they did not acknowledge the strength of their lord.
However, after signing a contract with the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon, other than it occasionally being a little rebellious, it was still quite obedient most of the time.
It had clearly approved of Wang Xiao, but even Wang Xiao himself did not know the reason for this approval.
However, after waiting for less than half a second, Wang Xiao suddenly thought of something and looked at Turk mockingly. “It can’t speak. How can it answer…”
Before he could finish, a blurry syllable rolled out of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon I’s throat- Strong-.”
