Chapter 498: A Wondrous Formation. However, Wasn’t It a Little Too Small?
“That… that attack just now was the contract master’s retaliation! He sensed that we were going to remove the contract, and transmitted a powerful energy along the contract’s line…”
Godfrey was obviously much better, and Joelson released the hand that was holding Godfrey.
“Master of the contract…”
Hades flapped his wings and breathed out a small dragon’s breath.
“So, breaking the contract won’t work…”
Joelson frowned and looked into the distance, vigilantly looking for the source of the voice.
“No…”
Joelson sighed.
“He’s not nearby, at least thousands of kilometers away from here…”
“Yes, my master.”
Godfrey nodded. His body had mostly recovered by now. He stood up with difficulty. Joelson wanted to help Godfrey, but Godfrey rejected him.
“He’s far away from here. The voice that came from all directions was brought here by that mysterious energy along the line of the contract!”
Godfrey explained, and Joelson nodded after hearing it.
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
Joelson clicked his tongue and continued.
“Do you have a way to track down the contract’s owner?”
“No, my master, I don’t have a way to track him down. The contract’s owner is a very sinister, cunning, and cautious guy. The contract’s line is set to counter-track him.”
“So there’s no way?”
Hades waved his dragon wings angrily and said unwillingly.
“No, there’s a way. The contract can still be removed. The attack that made me vomit blood just now was just a problem of my strength. If there’s a way to increase my strength and compete with the master of the contract in terms of energy, as long as we can withstand that energy impact…”
“As long as we can withstand that energy impact, then we can easily remove the contract in the mind of the black-robed skeleton man, Johann!”
Joelson immediately answered.
“That’s right, my master!”
Godfrey nodded to indicate that he was correct.
“But, Godfrey, all of this is based on the fact that you can withstand the energy attack of the other party’s contract owner. If you can’t withstand the energy attack, then all of this will be for naught. Just based on the fact that you were so frightened by that energy just now, and you were sent flying so far away by the energy attack, if not for my father’s intervention, how would you be able to withstand this energy attack?”
Hades frowned and asked in disbelief. Hades really did not have much confidence in Godfrey.
“Tsk!”
Godfrey clicked his tongue in displeasure.
“Didn’t I already say that as long as I can think of a way to increase my strength, then the problem will be solved easily?”
“The problem is how to increase your ability, Godfrey.”
Joelson rubbed his chin and pondered.
He did not know if the difference in strength could be bridged with the enhancement drug but, judging from Godfrey’s miserable state from the energy attack just now, Joelson did not have any expectations for the enhancement drug.
“Don’t worry about that, my master. I know a magical array that can connect the energy of the two of you to my body. With the two of you helping me, it’s more than enough to deal with that level of energy attack.”
Godfrey said confidently.
“Oh? There’s such a magical formation?”
Hades tilted his head in confusion and lowered his body to look at Godfrey.
“Of course. Just watch carefully, Hades!”
After saying that, Godfrey waved his hand and took out a pile of miscellaneous items from his storage space.
Vampire teeth, ghoul arms, blood demon blood, unicorn beetle, beetle, eyeballs, necrotic embryos…
Looking at the mess on the ground, Joelson said in confusion, “Hey, what are you doing? Setting up a stall?”
“No, no, no, this array is very powerful. I can’t just release it without drawing a magic array. I need to draw the array from scratch so that I can guarantee the feasibility of the array.”
“Really? Now that you’ve learned something, let’s not waste time. Do you need our help?”
Hades’s eyes lit up when he saw the mess on the ground. The collecting habits of dragons made him feel itchy and restless when he saw the rare items on the ground.
“No need, Hades. I’ll do it myself.”
After saying that, Godfrey picked up the things on the ground and began to paint.
Meanwhile, Joelson jumped onto Hades’s dragon back. Since he still needed some time, he would sleep on Hades’s back for a while to prepare for the upcoming battle.
“Hahahaha, a bunch of fools.”
The royal envoy, who was thousands of kilometers away, laughed loudly.
It had been a long time since he was this happy.
Seeing that Godfrey was half-dead from his own energy attack, the royal envoy withdrew his divine sense in satisfaction.
“This is what happens when you touch the contract, idiots. Learn your lesson!”
“I guess they won’t dare to touch my contract anymore, hahaha…”
The royal envoy picked up the robe on the ground and put it back on. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt someone removing his contract.
“Huh? Which bastard isn’t afraid of death to remove my contract again? He’s simply courting death!”
Godfrey put his hands together and a ball of golden light burst out of his eyes!
In an instant, a strange wind blew so hard that Joelson could barely open his eyes.
“Poor revenant, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. After you die, you shouldn’t take anything that belongs to you when you’re alive. The evil contract on your body is polluting the purity of the revenant!”
“In the name of the previous God of Slaughter, I will grant you a pure death, Purification!”
Behind Godfrey was the formation drawn by Godfrey!
“My master, Hades, please stand on the two formations behind me!”
Godfrey chanted the incantation to remove the contract while instructing Joelson and Hades to take their positions.
“Oh?”
Joelson was surprised.
“That’s it?”
Although he was skeptical, Joelson did not hesitate to stand in the formation that was emitting an ominous blood-red light.
“Hey, you idiot, Godfrey, you are so stupid!”
Hades scolded Godfrey loudly.
“What’s wrong, Hades?”
Godfrey turned to look at Hades, his eyes full of confusion.
“You drew such a small array, and it can only stand a dozen or so humans. How am I supposed to stand on it being such a huge dragon, you idiot!”
Hades looked at the mini formation under his feet in a dilemma.
Perhaps this formation was enough for Joelson but for Hades, who was so huge, he really could not think of how to stand in this formation.
