Chapter 132: Distributing the Phoenix Eggs
“Is it alright for us to stay like this? We’ll be working as maids in this mansion,” Wrath asked her companions as she wet a cloth with water and wiped a huge French window in front of her.
She was in a maid’s outfit. Her sleeves were rolled up, and her short hair was stuck to her face because of the sweat. Her thick eyebrows were slightly raised.
She was an ex-member of the Demoness Bandit Gang. At that time, even though other people regarded her as an evil person, she still had hundreds of subordinates. Well, things had changed.
“What else can we do about it? Do we have a choice?” a young girl, Lust, replied to her.
A few servants were with them, and two of them helped her to clean the glass. One of them held a fan to keep her cool, while the other peeled fresh fruit for her. After Lust opened her mouth, the servant put it into her mouth; she wanted to please her.
“Don’t be lazy. Our task today is to clean out all the glass in all the rooms in Blackmoon Castle. If you can’t do it before dinner, then you will all be punished.”
As she ate, Lust reprimanded the few people around her.
“Don’t worry, Lady Lust. We promise to complete the task.” Those few people nodded respectfully in agreement.
Lust nodded in satisfaction. She could charm anyone; that was her ability. She could make others fall in love with her and listen to her. That ability was useless against strong and determined people, but she could still charm a few ordinary servants.
It was quite different for Wrath; that place was not much different from the Demoness Bandit Gang to her.
Wrath glanced at her with a dissatisfied expression. “Lust, don’t forget our purpose. We’re here as maids so that Blackmoon Castle’s master knows that we are useful. We need to raise our status so that we can find out why Watson could fuse with the Great Sin Mask.”
“Of course I haven’t forgotten,” Lust said nonchalantly.
Well, she had not wanted to investigate Watson’s fusion with the Great Sin Mask. So what if she knew about it? It was not like she could snatch the mask back.
After her stay in Blackmoon Castle for a few days, she felt their power even more. They did not only have dozens of silver-tier elites, but they also had silver-tier mages. Each of them was even equipped with complete silver-tier or even gold-tier equipment. They did not use their full strength when they attacked the Demoness Bandit Gang. Plus, they thought that Watson was the border count’s illegitimate son, so she did not want to think about that.
She looked even more dissatisfied. Just as she was about to say something else when Sloth, who had stayed quiet as she used her invisible hand to wipe the windows, raised her head. Her snow-white eyelashes fluttered slightly as she looked into the distance in surprise.
“Did you hear that strange sound?”
“What sounds? I did not hear anything…” Lust and Wrath answered in confusion.
Roar!
At that moment, a shocking roar came from afar; it hurt their eardrum. The glass in front of them cracked, and a few servants who followed Lust covered their ears in pain before they collapsed on the ground.
A huge shadow rose from the direction of the farm and covered the sky. It flew to the top of Blackmoon Castle and hovered there.
They looked up and realized that the huge figure was a giant platinum dragon. Its diamond-shaped scales were the size of a fist that reflected the sun, and its huge claws were bigger than a house. Each of its nails was as sharp as a sword, and its open wings carried a hurricane as its golden eyes looked down at the earth. Their hearts jumped when they met the giant beast’s eyes.
A smaller Phoenix was behind the platinum-colored dragon. Its colorful feathers reflected the sunlight, and it left a rainbow in the air. Its entire body burned with blazing flames. Even from a few hundred meters away, they could still feel the heat.
“What is that?”
Lust stared blankly at the sky and muttered to herself.
With her experience, it was not difficult for her to recognize what was hovering above her head. However, she did not dare to believe her own answer.
“Is that a dragon and a Phoenix? That can’t be it. One seems like a real dragon, and the other seems like a hybrid Phoenix. One is a gold-tier magical beast and the other a platinum-tier. When did the border have such powerful magical beasts? Is the border count here?”
Wrath’s face was pale as she looked at the sky.
She knew that only the border count had such powerful strength.
Sloth also stared at the sky, but she had no words.
Shua!
Just as they were in a daze, the Blackmoon Knights had gathered in front of the castle. They knelt on one knee as they faced the sky respectfully to welcome those kingly two magical beasts.
Soon, the two magical beasts landed on the ground. They retracted their enormous wings, but they still occupied an area of dozens of meters. A human figure flew down from the platinum dragon and landed on the ground. It was none other than Watson.
“Watson, why is it so noisy? What did you do? Did you fuse those two magical beasts?”
Edward and Catherine led a few people out of the manor, followed by Watson’s siblings. They rubbed their ears as they smiled bitterly at Watson.
They knew that Watson had mastered the mysterious fusion magic, so they were no longer shocked by the strange things that he would fuse. However, they were shocked again.
“Father, please call everyone in the mansion, including the maids. I want to give each of you something good.”
Watson had a cute smile on his face as he spoke in a calm tone.
..
In ten minutes, more than a hundred people had gathered at the gate.
Those people included the Blackmoon Knights, the masters of the castle, and the maids.
Wendy and Capella were among them. Capella looked respectful, while Wendy was full of curiosity. She did not know what Watson would give them.
“I wonder why Young Master Watson called for us? I’m really looking forward to it.” One of the maids looked at Watson curiously and discussed it excitedly.
She was initially a maid from another manor. She was in Blackmoon Castle because the manor owners’ allied forces had failed. However, she thought that her life was terrific after she had lived there for a while.
The room and food were better in Blackmoon Castle. She felt that they were not inferior to the other manor owners, and she looked forward to Watson’s reward.
Young Master Watson rarely gathered everyone so solemnly, which meant that he had an important announcement.
Another maid said, “Perhaps it has something to do with the two magical beasts that Young Master has brought here. Look at how powerful they are! Just looking at me makes my legs feel weak.”
While everyone discussed that, Watson circled around and realized that everyone in the mansion was already there. He immediately cleared his throat before he said, “I believe that all of you have also seen it. I used fusion magic to upgrade Golden Flash to a platinum-tier dragon, and the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken has also become a hybrid Phoenix! I promised—as long as you work hard in Blackmoon Castle, I will never mistreat you. Now that we have entered a new era, it’s time for me to repay you.”
A Dragon and a Phoenix?
Young Master Watson was really too strong. As everyone thought about that, they saw Watson walk toward the hybrid Phoenix—it flapped its wings.
The hybrid Phoenix immediately let out a loud cry. As it flapped its wings, crystal clear eggs gushed from behind its fiery red tail. The eggshell burned with illusory flames, and one could clearly see the illusory image of a phoenix within the egg. The number was neither too much nor too little—it was exactly 100.
[Peak gold-tier hybrid Phoenix eggs.]
[Effect: increases strength by 10,000 catties the first time you eat it, and it gives 100 years of lifespan. You will definitely awaken a trace of the Phoenix bloodline, and it can heal all of your injuries.]
Watson glanced at the attributes of the Phoenix eggs. “These are eggs laid by a hybrid Phoenix. After consuming them, you will awaken a trace of the Phoenix bloodline. Now, I will bestow these Phoenix eggs to you.”
