Armipotent

Chapter 754: Taking Over a Continent - Part 9

Ava returned to the castle after sending off the army toward the battlefield. She did not join the main army as she had a different duty. Her duty was to lead a thousand Elven to the border of the Malecia Kingdom. She was tasked to watch over the Malecia Kingdom’s movement, and if possible, to represent the Tang Empire to persuade the Malecia Kingdom to surrender.

As for why Ava was chosen for the duty? Because she was an Elven, a former Elven Queen. That way, the Malecia Kingdom would believe the Tang Empire had conquered Gigante Forest. Then it would smooth their operation to force the Malecia Kingdom to submit to them.

Ava entered the main hall and found a maid. “Do you see Lord Tang Shaoyang?” The maid bowed her head. “Lord Tang Shaoyang has not returned to the castle since morning, but I heard he ordered the workers to empty the Royal Training ground.” The maid recognized the Elf as one of the Generals, so she told Ava what she knew.

“Royal Training Ground?” Ava was not that familiar with the castle’s layout, and she did not know where Royal Training Ground was.

“The Royal Training Ground is behind the castle. Do you want me to guide you there, Lady?” The maid offered politely. Ava nodded her head. “Lead me to the Royal Training Ground.”

The former Elven Queen followed the maid. They went to the backyard through the castle’s back door. It was ten minutes of walking to reach the Royal Training Ground from the castle. “The Royal Training Ground is ahead.” The maid pointed the vast land ahead of them. There was a steel fence that separated the training ground from the surroundings.

Ava smelled something unpleasant from afar and furrowed her brows. ‘Does he do something there? This is the smell of rotten flesh.’ She turned toward the maid and stopped to go further. “I will go by myself from here. You can go back to your post.”

“Yes, My Lady.” The maid bowed her head and left Ava.

The former Elven Queen jumped over the fence, and she sensed a strong aura ahead of her. There was no sign of fighting, but she hurried over. Then she saw the man with monster and undead, and also knight? She finally managed to see the beastmen with dragon features that her son told her about. ‘But what’s with the demon and undead?’ Ava did not approach him and watched from afar.

[You have sacrificed Grade S+ Spirit…]

[You have gained three levels, a random skill, and seventy Spirit Power!]

[You obtained a skill, [Basic Great Blade Technique (Passive)]

[You have sacrificed Grade S+ Spirit…]

[You have gained three levels, a random skill, and seventy Spirit Power!]

[You obtained a skill, [Earth Domain]!]

[You have sacrificed Grade S+ Spirit…]

[You have gained three levels, a random skill, and seventy Spirit Power!]

[You have obtained a skill, [Shield Breaker (Passive)]!]

…

[You have obtained a skill, [Shadow Walk]!]

[You have obtained a skill, [Reflection]!]

[You have obtained a skill, [Marking Shot]!]

Tang Shaoyang honestly did not know what to do with the skill. He even got an archer skill, something that was useless to him. There was no way he would use the skill. Reflection was a defensive skill, generating a shield barrier that lasted five minutes and blocked fifty percent of the damage. That was the best skill from sacrificing the six Grade S+ Spirits.

Shadow Walk was the second best, granting him invisibility while moving so fast. The rest of the skills were kinda meh, in his opinion. Especially the Earth Domain, a skill that he would never use, just like the archer skill. Basic Great Blade Technique was quite decent compared to those two skills, allowing to gain knowledge about the Great Blade even though his weapon was not the great blade, but battle-ax. In some way, he could still apply the technique with the battle-ax.

As for Shield Breaker, it was literally what the skill did, breaking the shield. The shield meant not just equipment but also the barrier skill, just like his Reflection. Of course, the chance of destroying the shield equipment was higher than destroying a barrier skill. All in all, still a good harvest including eighteen levels and four hundred and twenty Spirit Power.

“Now we have the last three sacrifices.” Tang Shaoyang checked his inventory. He was left with three Legend Rank dead bodies. “If we consider the Primordial Rank sacrifice, then I may summon Grade SS Spirit next.” After saying that, he summoned Zara. “Teacher and Bronson will face one Grade SS Spirit, Zara will face one, and I will face the last one.”

After Tang Shaoyang assigned the fight, he was about to take out the bodies, but he sensed something. That something was the feeling of being watched. His sensitive sense picked this up and turned around, and he saw a shadow over a thousand meters away. The figure was standing still, but he could not see the face.

Tang Shaoyang expanded his Spirit Eyes, and he managed to identify the figure. The figure was Ava. “What are you doing there? Come over if you want to watch!” He did not mind if Ava wanted to know more about his class and skill, as it was not like it mattered at this point. The moment she made a deal with him, she was his. There was a zero chance that she would betray him.

Ava was startled when she heard the shout and relieved that Tang Shaoyang was not angry as it could be said that she was spying on him. She came over and was cautious around the foreign force. A few of them were weaker than her, but some were stronger. She felt like she could take on the beastmen with the dragon’s characteristics and the knight. However, she felt like it was hard to win against the demon and the undead, especially the angel with seven pairs of wings.

Ava had heard about the angel from the Elven that was caught as a hostage, and she thought it was absurd to rival her husband’s power. Now, she saw it with her own eyes, and she could tell that her husband had no chance against this angel. ‘Lord Tang Shaoyang truly can dispose of my husband easily even if he does not do it directly.’
