Undying Warlord

291 What can I get?



Dilan was ready to leave the Blue Star camp for good. It would be destroyed, either way, so there was no need for them to stay.

With a calm expression, he left the office and walked through the masses of panicking Survivors and Ascenders. The Tier-1 Ascenders were trying to prepare themselves mentally for what awaited them.

If the monster tide had already been dangerous and scary, the purple-feathered Eagle, who was soaring through the air, was several times more dangerous. The destructive power each bolt of lightning caused was devastating and caused several explosions as a chain effect was initiated.

The vehicles in the surrounding area were destroyed, multiple holes were blown into the highly endurable walls of the military base and several corpses were already lying on the ground.

While the Survivors were running for their lives and trying to reach the deeper parts of the military base to be protected a little bit better, Dilan was unruffled as he passed through all of them.

They were looking at him and were trying to find a ray of hope, only to realize that Dilan didn’t even throw a glance at them.

“Dilan? Are you not going to help us?” Clerens asked when he appeared next to Dilan. He was pretty sure that Dilan wouldn’t let the other humans die so easily.

It didn’t matter, whether Dilan liked him or not, the lives of his brethren had always been important to Dilan. That was what Clerens was could tell for sure.

“Why should I help you? You wanted to sacrifice me to enter the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord. If not for Victoria, you would have the Sanctum Keys by now and I would still be oblivious to the truth,” Dilan didn’t halt stop in his tracks when he spoke.

He had no intentions to do what Clerens wanted from him, not for free, at least.

“If I kill this beast for you, what will you give me in return? You can hire me as your mercenary, otherwise, I will just leave and the Blue Star camp will cease to exist,” Dilan said and finally halted in his tracks to look at Clerens.

“B-but Dilan??” Oliver’s voice suddenly reached Dilan. His expression clearly showed that he was baffled what Dilan just said. However, Oliver was not the only one, who was baffled.

Kuhn and Silas felt exactly like Oliver.

‘He would let all these innocent Survivors die, just because he doesn’t like Clerens?’

“Are you serious, right now?!?” Clerens shouted out, his body moving instinctively as he grasped Dilan by the collar.

But instead of panicking, Dilan smiled mockingly at Clerens.

“Don’t act out of character, Clerens. Aren’t you supposed to be calm, deceiving, and aloof?” Dilan’s mocking smile widened the more he said.

Clerens grit his teeth, let go of Dilan and turned his head to the huge hole in the wall that had been caused by a single bolt of lightning. He saw the huge purple-feathered eagle, who could create highly destructive lightning without difficulties.

‘Dilan is right. This monster is not something either I or the others can handle…’ Clerens knew that he was not strong enough. It would be impossible for them to survive if the purple-feathered Eagle wouldn’t stop its rampage.

Clenching his fists tightly and gritting his teeth, Clerens swallowed his pride as he accepted the fact that Dilan was their only hope

“I will give you…just take whatever you want…but only three items and only after you killed the beast…” He thus said, trying to hide the fact that he hated the current situation.

Clerens didn’t even know what Dilan needed, which was why he was forced to propose giving Dilan three items of his choice. There was no time to start negotiating, not if Clerens wanted the military base and his people to survive!

Dilan smiled faintly as his body turned in the direction of the hole in the wall.

“Alright, we have a deal then,” Dilan spoke calmly before he started to speak to his own people, “You guys will have to stay behind. Your attacks should be useless against this type of monster.”

After that was said, Dilan the stones below his feet crackled when he used all his strength to catapult his body forward. His speed accelerated at a tremendous speed the moment he passed through the hole in the wall.

Meanwhile, the others could only look at the blur Dilan left behind. Oliver sighed deeply, somewhat relieved because he had figured out that Dilan merely played around with Clerens to make some profits.

“Our attacks will be useless against this annoying Eagle?! I don’t believe that!” Ailee suddenly exclaimed and she also disappeared through the hole.

“Can’t she just do as she was asked?” Oliver sighed again. His expression turned sour and against all his instincts that told him to hold his horses, he followed Ailee.

“What a cute couple!” Victoria exclaimed in joy, crossing Ailee out from her list of rivals before she turned into a blur as well

Her thoughts were running wild, just in the completely wrong direction… ‘I cannot lose out to them! My Darling will be disappointed if I don’t cheer for him!’

Williams, Silas, and Kuhn had nothing better to do than to pass through the hole in the wall as well as they left behind Clerens, who could only shake his head.

“I sincerely hope that you guys die fighting this monster,” He cursed quietly, just to recall something as he added, “…but only after it is severely injured…”

Dilan had yet to activate any of his abilities as he rushed toward the purple-feathered Eagle. It had noticed their arrival but that didn’t seem to bug it.

The purple-feathered Eagle kept soaring through the air, firing one bolt of lightning after another at the base. Something about the military base seemed to irk the monster, which attracted Dilan’s attention.

“What are you trying to achieve, little angry bird?” Dilan asked while keeping a bright smile on his face.

The closer he was to the purple-feathered Eagle, the more obvious its huge size and overwhelming power became.

Dilan had been pretty sure that the Eagle couldn’t be a normal Tier-1 monster from the beginning but now that he sensed its whole power from close-up, he could tell that this was not everything.

‘Is that the difference between a Tier-1 and Tier-2 monster?’ He wondered while a CrimsonClaw Dagger appeared in his hand.

Using his momentum, Dilan stomped with his feet on the ground before he spun around to create additional momentum just to throw the dagger straight at the purple-feathered Eagle.

It was flying around 200 meters in the air which made it hard to hit the target. Fortunately, the Eagle seemed to be close to 10 meters in length, meaning that the target was not that small.

The CrimsonClaw dagger turned into a red flash as it soared through the air with rapid velocity. Only when it collided with the purple-feathered Eagle was the red flash forcefully halted.

When the CrimsonClaw dagger collided with the Eagle, the only sound that reached Dilan’s ear was a nearly inaudible thump noise. Before even a second passed the CrimsonClaw dagger was deflected and it fell to the ground.

“Well its not like I didn’t expect that,” Dilan mumbled. Yet, just a short moment later, a bunch of fireballs, a salve of arrows and several blazing molotov daggers impacted on the purple-feathered eagle.

In response, a smokescreen covered the area around the purple-feathered eagle only for an enraged screech to echo through the surrounding.

The monster emerged out of the smokescreen as it dived down to the opponents, who had attacked it just a moment earlier.

There was not a single scratch on the eagle’s purple feathered. The plumage was merely a bit disheveled!

“As I said, you guys won’t be able to injure it!” Dilan spoke loud enough for everyone to let them hear him.

“You forgot about me then, Darling~!” Victoria turned in a flash to reappear next to him. She concentrated her power in the palm of her fingers where she conjured several tiny needles of Blood-Ice.

Once they were created, Victoria released them the moment the purple-feathered eagle was close enough to her to cause the most lethal damage.

“Bleed for me!” She screamed at the top of her lungs as her eyes turned crimson red. She licked her lips in satisfaction, while her battle lust was fully unleashed.

‘Maybe it will be funny with her?’
