Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mike began to prepare his own attack. Eve and Black Dragon merged into Mike’s body at the same time. Mike felt his cells being squeezed tightly before they continued to break apart. The pain was imaginable.

However, it was not over yet. Mike took a deep breath and opened his double eyes. The two high-level swords circled around Mike. Mike exhaled sharply. His eyes turned red and his hair looked like blood-stained snow.

The blood-colored holy dragon was hovering above the spear, and a blazing sun was on the tip of the spear.

The Black Dragon rose from Mike’s back, its dark branches had silver leaves. It was like a pair of magical hands holding a silver moon, complementing the sun on Mike’s spear.

Carpenter was also secretly shocked, but he had no intention of retreating. He looked at Mike and said, “Come.”

Mike and the Black Dragon attacked at the same time. The Blazing Sun, the Holy Dragon, and the Full Moon attacked Carpenter at the same time. With a swoosh, Carpenter’s body was torn apart.

Mike was not in a good situation either. Carpenter’s heavy sword carried an overbearing divine power and stabbed at Mike’s body. At the same time, Carpenter’s swing sent Mike Flying.

For a moment, only the sound of the wind could be heard in the valley. The two lay on the ground, not moving at all.

Blood continued to spurt out from all of Carpenter’s wounds. The life of this heaven-tier 5-star powerhouse was like a lamp that had run out of oil, reaching its end.

Carpenter looked at the sky, his eyes gradually losing their light and warmth.

Mike lay on the ground, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood. He felt a little emotional. Was this a stronger world? In just a few hours, he had become like this. In the face of death, no one could gain more power. Even if that person was a B-class Castle Lord, an A-class super expert, he would still end up like this, lying quietly on the ground, quietly waiting for his life to run out.

The Law of Perfection began to operate slowly. This magical technique was constantly producing new cells and repairing Mike’s damaged organs. Mike’s heart also began to beat vigorously.

It was painful and itchy. Mike felt his pain and thought helplessly, ‘Maybe that guy will feel better than me.’

Unfortunately, Carpenter would not respond to Mike anymore. Mike was also aware of this. He had great confidence in the strongest attack he could use in his strongest state. He glanced at the entrance of the valley. Right now, he was most worried that Carpenter’s underling would secretly sneak into the valley to check on the situation. If that happened, he would really die.

Mike took a deep breath and began to recover his divine power rapidly. He had to accumulate enough energy to safely teleport himself out before others came in.

Time passed by slowly. The people outside the valley were also waiting anxiously. The military advisor stood quietly outside the valley and looked at Mike’s thick Blood Energy. His expression became very strange.

A moment later, he said, “You guys wait here. I’ll go in and take a look.”

After that, he gave his trusted aide a look. That trusted aide immediately understood the military advisor’s meaning and began to reorganize the formation.

“Separate the military advisor’s die-hard loyalties from Carpenter’s die-hard loyalties.”

The military advisor walked unhurriedly towards the valley with a strange smile on his face. There was no other reason than that he had a piece of mark on his body that was used to record Carpenter’s vital signs using carpenter’s spiritual power, this was so that the military advisor could make the fastest response.

However, just now, Carpenter’s spiritual mark actually disappeared with Mike. What did this mean? It meant that Capone had most likely died in the valley.

The military advisor recalled Carpenter’s usual brutal and ruthless appearance, and he felt a little relieved. He quickened his pace as if he wanted to quickly verify his thoughts.

Mike had already sensed that someone was approaching, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. In an instant, countless thoughts surged into his mind. He could not help but think, am I going to die like this? I’m still fighting in the Otherworld.

Mike suddenly came back to his senses and could not help but curse himself in his heart. He began to think about what method he should use to deal with the person who was slowly approaching.

He raised his head and looked at the greatsword stuck in his chest. He immediately wanted to cry, but no tears came out. The greatsword had pierced through his chest. If he tried to pull it out, blood would definitely spurt out like a fountain.

The military advisor had already arrived at the entrance of the valley. He looked at the corpses of the gold-striped gray-spotted wolf on the ground, and the smile on his face became even more brilliant. He continued to walk into the valley and saw Carpenter, who had already been broken into pieces. He also saw Mike, who had pulled out the greatsword and was spurting blood.

The military advisor glanced at Mike and revealed a surprised expression. He asked, “What’s your name?”

Mike’s face was pale as he replied weakly, “It seems meaningless to ask this question now.”

That person shook his head and said, “No, it’s very meaningful to me. The names of the strong should be remembered by others.”

Mike sneered and said, “My name is Mike, a C rank mercenary.”

The military advisor nodded and said, “You don’t mind if I take away the corpse of our organization, right?”

Mike shook his head and said, “Not that I can do anything about it now.”

The military advisor said to Mike, “What a pity. If you didn’t kill our organization members, perhaps I could be your friend next time we meet.”

After saying that, the military advisor flew out of the valley with Carpenter’s corpse.

Mike smiled but did not say anything.

The military advisor walked out of the valley, placed Carpenter’s body on the ground, and said to the people of the castle, “Carpenter’s organization is dead. The murderer is a newly registered C rank mercenary, Mike. I hope you can remember this name. When you see him in the future, you must kill him.”

Everyone agreed in unison.

No one mentioned who would be the new boss because in their opinion, this matter had already been confirmed.

Mike circulated his divine power faster, and the Law of Perfection began to repair Mike’s body even faster. Three days later, Mike walked out of the valley and returned to City of Gods.

Mike walked into the Mission Hall and handed in the mission of killing the gold-striped gray-spotted wolves.

The hall suddenly became quiet again, and everyone looked at Mike with a hint of awe. However, Mike seemed to not notice these gazes. He passed through the crowd and walked to the place where the mission was posted. He said, “Post a recruitment notice.”

The receptionist was stunned for a moment, then said, “Okay, okay, okay. Please submit your requirements to the applicants and the hiring price.”

Mike Thought for a moment and said, “The requirements are that the strength must not be lower than heaven-tier. Oh, of course, make an exception for Support Summoners who specializes in healing, but they must not be lower than a high-tier 5-star summoner.”

When everyone heard Mike’s recruitment criteria, they all sucked in a breath of cold air.

At this moment, a loud voice came from the crowd. “What a high standard. I wonder what kind of price you are willing to offer?”

The crowd made way, revealing the person who had just spoken.
