Chapter 618: There Were Unspeakable Sufferings, Enemies and Friends Changing
The two demons immediately left after receiving Gail’s order.
One of the demons rushed to the nearby Black Hole of the Lingluo Race at full speed. He was prepared to call for reinforcements from the Lingluo Race in the name of the demons.
The other demon rushed to the temporary stronghold in the distance. He was prepared to teleport back to the Demon Race’s headquarters to inform Gajero of Vincent’s whereabouts and the news about the Immortal ruins.
Gail, who was alone, carefully poked his head out from behind the huge rock. He looked over at Vincent and Kurt. He knew that he had to find Vincent and the Immortal ruins. Only then could he offset the mistake of killing all the elites of the 4th Corps.
Gail looked at Vincent who was cleaning the battlefield in the distance and said in a sinister tone, “I was careless just now and didn’t regard you as a real opponent. From now on, I will never underestimate you until you reveal your real weakness!”
Gail was like a poisonous snake, circling in the dark. Before he was confident enough to defeat Vincent, he would not take the initiative to attack him anymore. Therefore, he just looked over silently at Vincent.
Vincent, who was cleaning up the battlefield with Kurt, lowered his head and casually glanced at the ground. He said, “According to my clone’s investigation, Gail has an ability known as the projection ability. Given his cautiousness, he probably won’t act so rashly. He must have sent his projection to scout the area earlier!”
Kurt could not help but ask nervously, “Didn’t we just expose all our tricks? If Gail isn’t dead, he will hide and continue to ambush us when he is ready!”
Vincent shook his head and said with a smug look on his face, “If he does that, then I would be very disappointed in his IQ! If he was smart enough, he would have realized that with his current strength, he would not be able to fight against us. The best option is to quickly find reinforcements!”
Kurt took out the demon terminal and checked it. He frowned and said, “The Demon Race doesn’t have an army nearby. They only have a temporary stronghold. Given their speed, it will take them five days to rush back to the Demon World and set up a teleportation array to arrive here! They won’t pose any threat to us!”
Vincent smiled slightly and said indifferently, “Gail is the number one think tank of the Demon Race. If he is thinking of getting reinforcements from the Demon Race at this time, I reckon that Gajero would not keep him until now. The biggest threat to us now is the Lingluo Race that is entrenched nearby! If Gail can think of a way to persuade the Lingluo Race to send troops, then it would be extremely beneficial to him!”
Kurt immediately said with some worry, “If the Lingluo Race joins in on the attack, then our situation will be very bad. This is because it will only take three days for the Lingluo Race to arrive here. Moreover, given the Lingluo Race’s resentment toward Mr. Vincent, they will spare no effort to send their elites. When that time comes, it will be hard for us to resist them!”
Vincent smiled slightly. He nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I have predicted all of this! Summoning the Lingluo Race is the best decision for Gail and us! We have delayed our journey to look for the Immortal ruins. Even if we rush to the Immortal ruins now, the situation will become very chaotic. Therefore, we might as well stir up some trouble now! Only when everyone else is in chaos can we find a way to break the situation. Moreover, we can take the initiative to guide Gail to make the choices that we want him to make!”
Kurt nodded and said softly, “I am looking forward to Mr. Vincent’s next arrangements!”
Vincent turned around confidently. He summoned Benson and Gaia and ordered them in a deep voice, “Next, we will start searching the mountain!”
Benson and Gaia did not hesitate at all. They immediately went up the mountain and carefully looked for all the possible hiding places along the way.
When they reached the top of the mountain, Benson and Gaia began to cast magic spells together. They bombarded the entire mountain.
Only after the entire mountain had been blown up did Benson and Gaia silently descend the mountain and travel to the next mountain.
Vincent and Kurt strolled behind them leisurely, occasionally turning their heads to look at their surroundings. They looked like they were looking for something.
Gail, who was still hiding behind the giant rock, saw the scene and immediately felt very gloomy. This was because he knew that Vincent was supposed to set out to the Immortal ruins after killing the 4th Corps.
However, Vincent did not set off. This meant that he knew that the 4th Corps had not been killed off completely. This also meant that Vincent realized that those three figures that died in the array were just illusions.
Gail originally thought that he would be very safe after faking his death twice. That was why he was brave enough to send away his two subordinates and secretly follow Vincent by himself.
If Vincent found his hiding place, what awaited Gail would only be death!
“This couldn’t be! Logically speaking, my projection ability shouldn’t have any flaws. How does he know that I am still alive? Moreover, his current actions are very contradictory. Since he wants to search for the Immortal ruins, after two consecutive ambushes, the 4th Corps is no longer any threat to him. He should have left immediately. Why is he still looking for traces of me? Could it be that his real goal was to kill me? However, the news about the Immortal ruins did not sound fake. What exactly is this Vincent trying to do? I can’t see through him at all!”
Gail laid behind the huge rock nervously. He kept pondering in his heart. However, even if he racked his brains, he did not have the slightest idea.
After seeing that Gaia and Benson were about to reach him, Gail could only choose to silently retreat and temporarily give up on following Vincent. His priority was to stay alive.
Just as Gail left his hiding spot, Vincent and Kurt, who were strolling, immediately noticed his figure. However, they did not immediately chase after him. Instead, they pretended not to have seen him.
“Mr. Vincent, he is still alive. What should we do next?” asked Kurt as he looked in the direction where Gail had left.
Vincent said happily, “Based on the projection earlier, he should still have two subordinates with him. Since he’s alone, it means that he must have sent them to get reinforcements. Therefore, our plan can be considered a success! Anyway, we still have plenty of time, so we might as well have some fun with him!”
Vincent then gestured to Benson and Gaia.
The two puppets immediately turned around and followed behind Gail.
Gail, who thought that he had not been exposed, felt extremely unlucky. He covered his head and scampered around like a lost goat. He circled a few mountains to get away from Benson and Gaia.
Time flew by in an instant.
Benson and Gaia were still bombarding the surroundings tirelessly. Gail was extremely exhausted after being chased by them for three days.
However, Gail knew that he had to stay hopeful so he gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
“No, I cannot die in such a humiliating way! Reinforcements from the Lingluo Race and the demon army will arrive soon. As long as the reinforcements arrive, I will be able to turn the situation around in an instant. Bear with it, I must bear with it!”
Gail had to continuously brainwash himself to move forward.
Unfortunately, he had forgotten to pay attention to the whereabouts of Vincent and Kurt. What he did not know was that the two of them were standing on top of a mountain not far away. They were looking at his miserable appearance.
Kurt looked at Gail’s figure with disdain and asked Vincent softly, “Mr. Vincent, given his current state, we can kill him at any time. I did not expect him to be so foolish as to enter the cat-and-mouse game that we set up. It’s almost time now. Should we continue?”
Vincent sighed lightly and he said leisurely, “This guy is not stupid, but this time, his cleverness had become his weakness. Secondly, he has been focused on saving his life for the past few days so he has no time to think. That’s why he didn’t notice our setup. At least, the reinforcements from the Lingluo Race are almost here. It’s time for us to close the net!”
Kurt nodded repeatedly. He took out the demon data terminal and a map of the surrounding terrain. He pointed at a few locations and said, “According to your previous instructions, I have selected the following locations, please have a look!”
After listening to Kurt’s brief introduction, Vincent said with satisfaction, “Very good! Next, you will oversee Benson and Gaia. Make sure they send Gail into the last trap we have prepared for him!”
“Yes!” answered Kurt confidently.
He then gave orders to Gaia and Benson. The two of them drove Gail to the bottom of a sunken mountain wall.
The sunken mountain wall was shaped like an eagle’s beak. The sunken space on the mountain wall below could only accommodate one individual. It was an excellent hiding place for Gail to dodge the bombardments of Gaia and Benson.
Gail only wanted to live at that point. Therefore, he chose to hide in the sunken space without thinking much about it.
He dodged the two death ray cannons.
Suddenly, the bombardment that lasted for three days stopped. Gail was stunned.
He was overwhelmed by happiness because he realized that he had just escaped death. The feeling made him almost burst into tears.
However, Gail suddenly heard Vincent’s voice coming from the cliff above.
Vincent stood on the cliff and said with a slightly anxious tone, “Since we have searched for so many days and still haven’t found any traces of the demons, it seems that the three demons that escaped have been scared away by us! We can’t waste any more time here. It’s time to set off for the Immortal ruins!”
Kurt replied indifferently from the side, “Mr. Vincent, didn’t you say that the hatred between you and Gajero is irreconcilable? Any demons that you see must be exterminated! Are you willing to let go of them now?”
Vincent said rather helplessly, “So what if I’m unwilling? In any case, we can’t find any traces of the other demons. We might as well seize the time to go to the Immortal ruins. According to the memories that I have obtained, the ruins have never been excavated. There are countless treasures inside. After I get the treasures inside, my strength will increase again. At that time, I can directly go and take revenge on Gajero!”
Kurt replied very cooperatively, “Then let’s set off now. I don’t think anyone will notice our current location!”
After listening to their conversations, Gail smiled smugly. This was because he realized that he still had some gains after so many days of torture!
Vincent finally could not take it anymore. He wanted to rush to the Immortal ruins.
Gail was finally able to take advantage of this opportunity and follow behind Vincent all the way. When the time came, he would be able to find the location of the Immortal ruins!
However, Vincent suddenly said, “This time, we don’t have to rush. We can just use our modification authority to enter the space tunnel! This way, we will be safe and hidden. We won’t have anything to worry about!”
“F*ck!”
Gail cursed silently in his heart. He had forgotten that Vincent still possessed the modification authority. What was the point of following him if he used the space tunnel?
After thinking about it, Gail realized that he could not remain silent anymore. Otherwise, all the suffering he had endured for so many days would have been wasted!
Gar whispered to himself, “As the saying goes if you don’t enter the tiger’s den, you will not get the tiger’s cub. Now is the time for me to give it a try!”
Gail made up his mind and walked out of the sunken cliff resolutely. He turned his head and shouted toward the mountain, “Vincent, do you want to kill Gajero? I am willing to cooperate with you!”
At that moment, Vincent and Kurt were standing on the mountain peak. Benson and Gaia were standing beside them. All of them turned to look at the miserable-looking Gail almost at the same time. Their eyes were bursting with strong killing intent.
“It’s my business if I want to kill Gajero. I don’t need to cooperate with anyone! Since you’re still alive, then go and die!” said Vincent in a cold tone.
He then signaled Gaia and Benson to go forward.
Gail was not afraid at all. He continued to shout, “I’m the first officer under Gajero’s command. I know the internal situation of the Demon Race like the back of my hand. If you cooperate with me, not only will you eliminate the strongholds of the Demon Race in each world, but you will also know the next invasion plan of the Demon Race in advance. As a result, you will deal a heavy blow to Gajero. I think you know the benefits of this, right?”
When Vincent heard this, he immediately waved his hand and signaled for Benson and Gaia to stop. He smiled and asked, “Of course, I know the benefits, but what I don’t know is why you would want to cooperate with me? What benefits can you gain by betraying Gajero?”
Gail pursed his lips and took a deep breath. He said resolutely, “This is because I want to become the leader of the Demon Race! Right now, my position in the Demon Race is only second to that of Gajero. As long as you kill Gayero, I will take over the position as leader of the Demon Race. I can also promise you that when I become the leader, I will bring all the demons back to the Demon World and never come out again!”
Gail felt an inexplicable excitement after saying those words out loud. Although he was just saying these things to deceive Vincent, they still reflected some of Gail’s true ambitions and thoughts.
As Gail was driven by greed at that moment, the demonic aura in his body had increased. For a moment, he could not tell if he wanted to deceive Vincent or if he wanted to ally with Vincent.
“This is good too. Since even I can’t tell what I want, Vincent will not be able to see my true intentions! Given my strong temptation, I don’t think he will reject my proposal!”
Gail could not help but look forward to Vincent’s choice even more.
After hesitating for a moment, Vincent suddenly revealed a very satisfied smile on his face. He jumped down from the cliff and landed steadily in front of Gail.
Vincent reached out his right hand and said to Gail with great anticipation, “Your proposal reflects a win-win situation for the both of us. I can’t find any reason to reject it, so I think we can try to cooperate!”
After seeing that Vincent had taken the bait, Gail quickly shook Vincent’s hand. He smiled and said, “We are all smart individuals. I can understand if you have doubts in your heart. I’m not 100% confident in you now either, so I think that during the initial cooperation, we can test each other out. This way, we can be more assured of each other!”
After hearing Gail’s suggestion. Vincent nodded repeatedly and said, “That is a very good idea. It’s settled then! Welcome, my new friend!”
After seeing that Vincent had completely let down his guard, Gail could not help but smile even wider. He even took the initiative to stand up.
Pretending to switch sides was just a spur-of-the-moment reaction of Gail’s. Everything else was just a lie that he had made up after careful consideration!
Based on Vincent’s previous performance, it was enough to prove that he was a smart person. Therefore, it was reasonable for him to doubt Gail’s sincerity.
Therefore, Gail took advantage of the situation and suggested to Vincent to test each other out. Not only would he dispel Vincent’s wariness of him, but it could also help him to obtain the secrets of the Immortal ruins from Vincent himself!
In Gail’s eyes, he believed that only he was the final winner. Vincent, on the other hand, was simply unlucky to have met him.
Vincent noticed that Gail was smiling to himself. He seemed to be a little absent-minded. He looked as if he had drifted away in his thoughts.
Vincent asked in a deep voice, “I remember that you should still have two subordinates. Where are they now?”
Gail was startled upon hearing Vincent’s question. He did not expect Vincent’s probing to come so quickly. He almost started panicking.
Fortunately, Gail was also a veteran in the negotiation field. He quickly perked up, smiled, and said, “To tell you the truth, I have sent the two of them back to the demon headquarters to call for reinforcements! But you can rest assured. Given their speed, it will take at least two days for the demon army to come here. We can make use of this time to escape first. When your strength has improved, I will take you back to the Demon Race to kill Gajero!”
Gail’s purpose was to delay Vincent. Therefore, he deliberately hid the fact that he had requested reinforcements from the Lingluo Race.
At that moment, Gail only needed to wait for the Lingluo Race’s reinforcements to arrive. That way, Vincent would not be able to use the space tunnel to escape. At that time, he would have complete control over the situation. He would also be able to force Vincent to hand over the secrets regarding the Immortal ruins!
Although Gail had a good plan in place, he did not know that Vincent had expected the same of him.
When Vincent heard Gail mention that he had sent his subordinates back to the Demon World, he could not help but smile brightly.
There was no point for Gail to send two of his men back to the Demon World. As long as Gail was not a fool, he would not waste manpower. Therefore, Vincent believed that he must have sent the remaining demon to the Lingluo Race to ask for reinforcements. This was the most reasonable arrangement after all.
Vincent had also expected Gail to hide the truth from him. Therefore, at that moment, he only needed to cooperate with Gail and continue acting!
Vincent said to Gail with a satisfied expression on his face, “Your excellency is indeed straightforward. I now believe in your sincerity toward this cooperation!”
Gail thought that his chance had finally arrived. He pretended to hesitate and asked, “I heard you mention the Immortal ruins previously. I wonder if this news is true?”
Vincent became nervous and said cautiously, “What Immortal ruins? This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with our cooperation!”
After seeing that Vincent was still wary of him, Gail was even more convinced that his plan had succeeded.
After all, both sides were once enemies. Even if they were prepared to cooperate, it would still be impossible for them to reveal all of their secrets. Therefore, Vincent’s reaction could be considered normal.
Gail started to gain confidence and said, “Sir, don’t misunderstand. I just think that the Immortal ruins are a great opportunity for you to increase your strength. If this news is true, I can get rid of the demon reinforcements first and we can go explore the Immortal ruins. When your strength has increased, we can directly launch a counterattack against Gajero!”
Vincent pretended to hesitate for a moment when he heard Gail’s suggestion. He replied reluctantly, “To tell you the truth, I do know some secrets about the Immortal ruins. Since you have decided to turn over a new leaf, I am willing to share the treasures in the Immortal ruins with you to show my sincerity! We can go there now!”
Gail’s eyes widened and he started to breathe heavily. He did not expect Vincent to be so naive and generous. He was even willing enough to gift him half of the treasures obtained from the Immortal ruins. This had completely caught him off guard!
Gail could not help but think about the stakes again.
If he delayed Vincent’s journey and waited for the reinforcements of the Lingluo Race to arrive, Vincent would have to hand over the secrets of the Immortals ruins to the Lingluo Race. At that time, the treasures obtained from the Immortal ruins would most likely be divided up between the Lingluo Race and the Demon Race.
Gail would not receive many benefits as a result.
However, if he pretended to leave with Vincent until he obtained the exact location of the Immortal ruins, then he could inform the demon army to rush over. Although the Lingluo Race would not be able to share the spoils, the majority of the gains would go to Gajero only. In the end, he would only receive whatever Gajero wished to give him.
However, if he helped Vincent get rid of the Demon Race’s pursuit and avoid the reinforcements from the Lingluo Race, he could obtain half of the treasures. This was a fortune that no one could refuse!
Although Gail was tempted, he did not make a final decision because he was not sure if this was Vincent’s new way of testing him.
Unless he was certain that Vincent was prepared to share the immortal treasures with him, he would never betray the reinforcements from the Lingluo Race.
Gail suppressed the greed in his heart and slowly said, “Your generosity to your friend is truly admirable. However, in our alliance, you are the main force to fight against Gajero. The gains in the Immortal ruins should all be used to increase your strength. Only then can it be fully utilized. I cannot hold you back!”
Vincent almost laughed out loud when he saw how careless Gail was. His eyes were filled with pain.
Fortunately, he had seen a lot over the years and had a strong sense of self-control. He forcefully held back his laughter and said boldly, “Don’t worry, the information I received was very detailed. There are indeed things that I need from the Immortal ruins, but I do not need all of them! When the time comes, I will only take what I need. The rest of the things will be yours!”
Gail took a deep breath silently. His face was very calm but he was shouting like a madman in his heart.
“As expected, it seems that Vincent has obtained the memories left behind by the Immortal powerhouses. He has decided on what he wants before even finding the Immortal ruins. That is why he is willing to give me half of the treasures! The heavens have blessed me with such a great opportunity!”
The overjoyed Gail had completely forgotten to check whether Vincent had trusted him completely. On the contrary, he had believed Vincent’s words wholeheartedly and was looking forward to his future.
After noticing that Gail had fallen into deep thought again, Vincent quickly patted his shoulder and said, “There’s not much time left before the demons arrive. Let’s hurry and set off! I have to inform you that I accidentally leaked the news of the Immortal ruins previously. Plus, I have been delaying my journey. I’m very afraid that someone will beat us to it!”
Gail, who had regarded the treasures of the Immortal ruins as his possessions, immediately became anxious when he heard that. He replied, “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry and set off!”
Vincent smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to give the order to set off, a battle cry suddenly sounded from the other end of the cliff. It was as if two armies were fighting.
Kurt, who was still standing on the top of the mountain, subconsciously turned his head to look. He quickly shouted at Vincent, “Not good, there are pursuers!”
Vincent and Gail’s expressions changed drastically at the same time. However, Vincent was only pretending to be nervous, while Gail was truly nervous.
This was because he knew that the only reinforcements would be from the Lingluo Race. Once Vincent found out that he was the one who had summoned the Lingluo Race, then the trust that he had painstakingly built up previously would be destroyed in an instant. Half of the treasures from the Immortal ruins would disappear as well.
Vincent did not show any signs of doubt at that moment. Instead, he calmly said to Gail, “Don’t worry, let’s go and take a look first!”
After seeing Vincent’s reaction, Gail believed that there was still room for change. Thus, he followed Vincent to the top of the mountain and looked at the other side.
He saw the mighty army at the foot of the mountain. They were all from the Lingluo Race. They were being led by Jackson, the leader of the Lingluo Race.
There was a very eye-catching figure standing next to Jackson. It was obvious that it was the demon Gail had sent to summon the Lingluo Race.
Gail had to quickly think of an excuse for the current situation. However, his train of thought was immediately interrupted because he suddenly realized that the Lingluo army at the foot of the mountain was currently trapped within a bright light.
Given his experiences, Gail could naturally tell that the Lingluo army was trapped in an array.
However, what made Gail feel incredulous was that the huge array at the foot of the mountain was emitting the aura of the Demon World. It was an array that could only be set up by an organized demon army!
Based on his calculations, the demon army could not appear so soon. Moreover, how could the demons and members of the Lingluo Race attack one another when they have just allied?
“This doesn’t make sense!” sighed Gail unconsciously.
Gail suddenly realized that he had almost revealed his stance. He quickly covered his mouth and looked at Vincent with a worried look.
Thankfully, Vincent was not focused on him. Instead, he was looking at the foot of the mountain.
At that moment, the Lingluo army had broken through the array using the modification authority.
Jackson, who was in the lead, raised his head and roared, “Demon Race, why did you ambush our Lingluo Race? I’m here to support your demons! We are allies!”
Gail felt an incomparable heartache after hearing Jackson’s roar. This was because the cooperation between the Demon Race and Lingluo Race was arranged by him. Therefore, no one cared about the relationship between the Lingluo Race and the Demon Race more than him!
At that moment, Gail could not wait to rush down the mountain and explain everything to Jackson.
However, Vincent was standing beside him. Gail could not bear to expose his position before obtaining the treasures from the Immortal ruins.
Countless figures from the Demon Race suddenly appeared in the valley. The individual who was leading them was the enchanting and charming Alexia. She was holding a magic sword in her hand.
“Do you think you are qualified to ally with the Demon Race? Today is the day that your Lingluo Race will be exterminated. Prepare to form a formation!” shouted Alexia at Jackson in a deep voice.
After that, she raised the magic sword in her hand and signaled the 26th Corps behind her to form a formation. They proceeded to launch another attack on the Lingluo army.
Jackson looked at the demon army that was full of killing intent. He roared unwillingly, “Why? We have the same enemy. Why do you want to attack our Lingluo Race?”
Alexia’s tone was cold as she replied, “The Demon Race does not need your help to deal with Vincent. Instead, we want to get rid of you and your ability to modify authority!”
Jackson took two steps back. He laughed and said with a face full of anger, “So that’s the case! It turns out that what Gajero is afraid of most is our modification authority. Since you are so heartless, then let’s declare war! Lingluo Race, prepare to form a formation!”
Following Jackson’s order, all the elites of the Lingluo Race stepped out one after another. They used their power of modification to construct a defensive formation.
No matter how the 26th Corps attacked, the Lingluo Race could modify their opponent’s powerful attack to a very small or even negligible degree.
The Lingluo Race was still afraid of the strength of the demons so they did not choose to fight the 26th Corps head-on. They soon realized that the strength of this demon army was low. They could not even withstand one charge from the Lingluo Race.
On the mountain peak, Gail saw that both sides were in a tense situation. He knew that if this continued, he would lose the ally that he had worked so hard to obtain. Instead, he would invite a powerful enemy for the Demon Race.
However, when he saw that the leader of the demon corps was Alexia, Gail realized that all of this was Vincent’s doing. However, he could not figure out Vincent’s real purpose, so he could only be anxious on the inside. He still had to maintain a calm expression on the surface.
Finally, Vincent turned to look at Gail. He pointed at the foot of the mountain and said proudly, “Look, this is the Lingluo Race. Back then, I had some grudges with the Lingluo Race. During the process of searching for the Immortal ruins, I accidentally found out that the Lingluo World was nearby, so I had been on guard against them. Now, it seems that they want to stop us from going to the Immortal ruins!”
Gail heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Vincent said. He was aware of the conflict between Vincent and the Lingluo Race. He realized that Vincent had never let down his guard against the Lingluo Race and that this ambush had been set up long ago.
Therefore, Vincent should not be able to link the Lingluo Race back to him.
After confirming that he still had Vincent’s trust, Gail felt much calmer. As long as he continued to follow Vincent, he would still be able to obtain the treasures in the Immortal ruins.
As for the Lingluo Race who was in a dilemma, they were not in any danger because the 26th Corps was not a match for them at all. At most, they could only delay them for a short period.
Additionally, as long as Jackson asked the demon member that was traveling with him, he would know that Alexia was a puppet under Vincent’s control. At that time, not only could they bury the hatchet, but they would also make the Lingluo Race even more determined to form an alliance with the demons to deal with Vincent.
After thinking it through, Gail realized that he was still the biggest winner. Therefore, he turned to look at his demon subordinate within the Lingluo army. He wanted to explain the situation to Jackson as soon as possible.
“Quickly go and explain it to him! Do it! Do it now!”
Gail stared at the battlefield below whilst shouting anxiously in his heart. He was about to shout out loud in excitement when he suddenly realized that Vincent had grabbed onto his hand.
Vincent grabbed Gail’s hand and asked with a smile on his face, “Right now, the Lingluo Race is the biggest obstacle for us to go to the Immortal ruins, and they have become our common enemy. Now, let’s join hands and kill all the members of the Lingluo Race. After that, we’ll go and split the treasures in the Immortal ruins equally. What do you think?”
Gail knew very clearly that he could not agree to Vincent’s request. He even realized that the current situation was a little strange. However, he still could not resist the temptation of splitting the Immortal treasures equally with him. He blurted out, “Sure!”
After receiving Gail’s confirmation, Vincent immediately waved to his side. He shouted down the mountain, “Jackson, long time no see, do you still remember me? Back then, you wanted to assassinate me secretly. Now, how dare you bring your Lingluo Race members to ruin my good deed. Today, I’ll show you who is a true ally of the Demon Race!”
Jackson suddenly raised his head and saw Vincent and Gail holding hands on the top of the mountain. His eyes instantly widened and he roared angrily, “No wonder Gajero is so anxious to get rid of the Lingluo Race. It’s because you have joined the demons! It seems that Gajero has also obtained the remaining modification authority scroll in your hands! Very good. From now on, as long as the Lingluo Race still has a breath left, we will be enemies with the demons forever!”
Gail was as bitter as a bitter gourd. However, at this point, he did not know how to explain it to Jackson. He only hoped that Jackson would quickly take the opportunity to retreat before both sides suffered serious casualties. He wanted him to lead his clansmen back to the Lingluo World. After that, he would wait until he and Vincent found the Immortal ruins and obtained the treasures before explaining everything to Jackson.
However, at that moment, Benson and Gaia, who had received Vincent’s orders, raised their weapons at the same time. They aimed them at the battlefield.
Even though the Lingluo Race was a famous high-level race and Jackson was a level 85 creature that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Ultimate Evil Lord, the Lingluo warriors behind him were not as powerful!
“Sky Demon Curse!”
“Death Ray Cannons!”
Benson and Gaia unleashed their strongest attacks at the same time. The purple demonic aura and black death rays instantly bombarded the Lingluo army.
Countless Lingluo warriors below level 80 were killed and injured. The Lingluo Race elites above level 80 were also heavily injured and fell to the ground. They could not join the battle for the time being.
Gail could not help but tremble. According to his rough estimation, more than half of the Lingluo warriors had been killed and injured. Moreover, his subordinate who had been following the Lingluo warriors all along had also been killed by the death ray that had been shot out at random.
No one could explain the misunderstanding behind this to Jackson!
“Vincent, Gail! I am your sworn enemy!”
Jackson, who had survived by relying on his strength, let out an indignant roar. He had to face reality and lead the remaining members of the Lingluo Race to retreat.
The Lingluo Race retreated like a tide.
Vincent did not give any further orders.
Alexia, who was at the foot of the mountain, began to gather the 26th Corps and traveled up the mountain.
“That’s it? Aren’t you going to kill them all?” asked Gail in surprise.
Since Jackson hated the Demon Race, it would be better to let Vincent exterminate the Lingluo Race. This would also save the Demon Race some trouble in the future.
However, Vincent did not do so. He just raised his hand and snapped his fingers. He opened a space door, smiled, and said to Gail, “The Lingluo Race has suffered such a heavy blow. They are no longer a concern to me! Moreover, even if they want to take revenge, they will also look for the demons.. What does that have to do with me? Right now, my priority should be to look for the treasures in the Immortal ruins!”
