Chapter 818: Nike (1/2)
Sam looked at Ling Tian who is releasing that dangerous aura. Even though it is just a holographic image, he can still feel it.
Sam felt an unknown and subconscious fear grip his heart and he took two steps back without even knowing.
Ling Tian looked at Sam who is sweating profusely and said.
”Don't think too much. I was in the middle of something. While I was preparing to give you the message something uninvited came up and ruined everything.
I hope I am not late.”
Sam calmed himself down. He now understood how much he is underestimating the gods. That aura cannot be faked, that is a real deal. After that initial fear, there is excitement boiling through his body.
One day he is going to butt heads with the likes of Ling Tian and people even stronger than him. He would hold them by their throats and demand that they tell him why they forced him into this life. While he is lost in thought, Ling Tian spoke.
”I don't know if you came into contact with other candidates, but the next palace of inheritance was already decided. This time, there was an extra game before the Palace of inheritance.
Everyone is going to go to different cities in the same region.
There are six cities in that region and each city lord and his family possess a piece of special lightning type weapon.
One piece of this weapon will only allow one person to enter the palace of inheritance. So, for the next one, only six people will be entering and the competition inside is still unknown.
The place you are going to is a bit dangerous and there will be no humans there. You have to be careful. Death is not completely out of bounds.
This time you cannot bring any extra people to the Palace of inheritance. In fact, it is better if you don't bring your friends to that place at all.”
Sam looked at him with a bit of confusion. He doesn't know why this is happening all of a sudden and why is he the only person that got this information later than everyone else. If not for the fact that he has ties with Arman and Arkiv, then he wouldn't have even known about this.
”Are your injuries connected to this matter?”
Sam asked, not really expecting an answer, but Ling Tian answered.
”Actually, they are. Someone tried to stop the information from going to you sooner. They gave the information later and when I was about to send the message to you, they came and attacked, I just dealt with them.”
”Who did that? The same person in charge of the Palace of inheritance this time?”
”Yes. But don't think too much into it, because of this, we can take advantage of the situation a bit. Do you want anything?”
”I get a say in what I want?”
”Of course, just tell me, it would be possible to fleece them a bit. I have clear evidence of their activity.”
Sam thought for a moment and explained what he wanted. He was already thinking on how to get this item in this Palace of Inheritance.
Now that Ling Tian himself asked this, there is a high probability.
Ling Tian listened to Sam's requirements and said.
”It would be hard to get this as a reward. It would be too wasteful, but we have a different way to get this to you. Just wait for this Palace of inheritance to be over and there would be an instance while presenting your rewards. You will understand how to get that item then.
Be careful though, this time the whole thing is a bit complicated but also direct at the same time. The danger is multiplied by a lot.”
”Thank you.”
With that Ling Tian disappeared after he gave some coordinates.
Sam was surprised once again because these coordinates are almost the same as Arkiv.
Only the last two points changed a bit and both of them will still be a few kilometers away from each other. They are most likely to be dropped into the same city.
Sam left the divine dimension and went back to the office where Arman and Arkiv are still waiting.
”I got the message. Apparently, it is delayed by someone for some reason.”
Sam said and heaved a sigh.
Arkiv and Arman exchanged a glance and thought of something.
”Didn't you say that not all gods are psychos? Then why is this happening?”
Arkiv asked sarcastically.
Sam lost interest in arguing.
”How would I know that their pettiness is only second to their immense power? When I get the chance, I will spank their asses so long that their skeletons would escape those skins because of the constant pain they had to feel. That is if they have skeletons and skin.”
