Chapter 163 Mutual Recruitment
Roy took in all the greedy looks from the members of the Ikeros Familia, but what did it matter?
Divine weapons in the hands of weaklings are a crime, and now he is not afraid of any clan. Anyone who dares to snatch them will be met with the fate of the immortal soldiers!
Another thing caught Roy's attention.
The corpses of the celestial soldiers, shredded by his elven holy sword, rose from the ground in wisps of blood, which were absorbed by the Ghost King Armor he wore on his chest.
The Demon King's Armor seemed to come alive, shimmering with a faint red light and faintly emitting a heartbeat.
[The blood of a "Fairy Soldier (LV.5)" already exists; the Ghost King's Armor's quality has been upgraded to Advanced!]
Roy saw the panel that popped up and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes; this was the unexpected delight.
The celestial soldiers, lacking reason, met the absorption conditions of the Ghost King's Armor. The LV.5 blood instantly elevated its quality from low to high.
Roy understood the principle behind it.
It's impossible to create a legendary-level equipment using only the materials from Kibuki Muzan. It only provides an absorption function, requiring the power of monsters and the blood of all beasts to reach the ultimate legendary quality.
Roy released his Synchro Contract and Adventure Ability, and a strong sense of weakness surged up, as if he had fallen from the heights of the clouds to the depths of the valley, but he still had to force himself to stay upright.
With an expressionless face and maintaining his usual tough demeanor, Roy said, "We have won, God Icarus!"
Ikeros proposed a best-of-three format, and both of Ikeros's Familia members, both Level 5, were utterly defeated.
The victors were, of course, the Astrea Familia.
Ikeros was speechless, but wasn't this unexpected turn of events a bit amusing? He exclaimed excitedly, "Hahaha, this is so funny!"
His laughter echoed throughout the entire underground passage.
After a while, Ikelos's laughter subsided. "There's nothing I can do. This matter ends here. My family children and I will no longer cause you trouble, except for 'me and my family.'"
Tap! Tap! Tap!
The sound of treading water echoed from the depths of darkness.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, hundreds of figures emerged from the shadows, including many adventurers of level 3 and 4, wielding various weapons and grinning maliciously, and surrounded Roy and his group.
"Ikelos!"
Astraea's face showed anger.
"Astraea, they are not members of my kin. Before this, they had converted to another god, so they have nothing to do with me!" Ikelos said with a smile.
Ryu and Daphne trembled with rage. How dare the gods play such word games!
Roy shook his head inwardly; it was expected.
One of them shouted, "Kids, the revenge for our comrades is over. Now it's time to loot!"
"Oooooo!"
The many adventurers raised their voices loudly.
Ikeros laughed and said, "Asteria, don't blame me, the wealth you've accumulated is too tempting. No matter how I try to persuade them, they won't listen."
It's called revenge, but it's actually plunder!
With cash and equipment, the Astrea Familia's wealth exceeds at least one billion faeries.
To put it bluntly, their strength was not commensurate with this wealth. The Loki Familia and Freya Familia were much richer than them, and no one dared to cause trouble.
Ikeros continued, seemingly trying to persuade her, "Asteria, leave your money and equipment behind, especially Roy's brother's sword. You might still survive."
A flash of anger crossed Astraea's face.
The adventurers surrounded the group, and in the eyes of the Ikelos Familia members, Roy and his companions were trapped with no way to escape.
To their surprise, Roy and the others remained quite calm; even the newcomers Daphne and Cassandra only showed a hint of nervousness.
There was no fear.
Simply put, they believed in Roy.
"Ikelos!"
Roy asked, "Knowing there was an ambush, why do you think we followed you in?"
This calm voice was like pouring a bucket of cold water on someone in the freezing cold, making them shiver and bringing a touch of calm back to their overheated mind.
Things were going too smoothly, and they didn't even think about the problem. Instead, they were preoccupied with how to squander the wealth of the Astrea Familia and enjoy a wonderful life.
A member of the Ikeros Familia said, "Don't panic, he's just bluffing!"
Others wanted to believe this, but were the Astrea Familia fools?
Obviously not!
A god who has lived for hundreds of millions of years, who has experienced countless dangers and grown to LV.5, and the budding of justice that has been stirring up the Orario world these days.
Which of these people is someone to be trifled with?
Roy shouted, "Commander Finn, stop watching! You've been paid to do your job!"
From the moment Roy and his group left the arena, the Soma Familia and Loki Familia, who had been following closely behind, had already surrounded the area on the surface.
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a furious roar rang out.
boom!
With a deafening roar, Grace cleaved the earth in two with an axe.
The massive crack stretched for hundreds of meters!
Sunlight streamed into the dark underground passage, and the people, accustomed to dim light, found it dazzling and instinctively shielded their eyes from the sunlight.
But soon, they no longer needed to block.
A large number of figures appeared at the crack above. Those figures leaped down, forming a circle to protect Roy and his group.
Finn, Riveria, Grace, plus Ais, Bert, Anachiti, Raul, and Alicia—"a whole bunch of high-level adventurers, and countless adventurers at levels 2 and 1."
Roy only paid the fees to adventurers who were hired at level 4 or higher, but Finn was quite generous and brought over the other members as well, making it a very grand occasion.
This formidable lineup was nothing short of a catastrophe for the Ikeros Familia.
Many people turned pale with fright on the spot.
"The Loki Familia? Why are they here?!" one of the officers asked, his face grim, voicing the question on the minds of everyone in the Ikeros Familia.
Roy laughed and said, "It's nothing. I just spent 150 million Fali to hire the Loki Familia to act as my guards for a day."
One hundred and fifty million Fali!
Upon hearing this, the underground passage, which was originally somewhat smelly, was filled with the scent of money.
The members of the Ikelos Familia were furious. They roared inwardly, "You'd rather spend so much money to hire the Loki Familia as your guards than spend this money to avoid trouble?"
If we give them this money, why bother fighting? Aren't the women in the red-light district more appealing?
Roy smirked coldly. Paying money to avoid trouble?
It's ridiculous. It will only embolden these people. Don't even mention 150 million Fali, even if we throw in 400 or 500 million, we'll still wipe you out!
