58: Chapter 57 Greatsword Stops the Dragon Carriage (5K)_2

Renzo opened his eyes on the rooftop.

This kind of thing happened countless times every day, and he really couldn’t understand why these people were obsessed with stopping the formidable Calamity Shadow with a greatsword.

If someone succeeded, the people nearby would cheer.

Even if someone failed, no one would take it as a warning; instead, they would shout, “Let me try,” and then follow in their footsteps.

These Undead were insane.

Even the so-called advantages of “Immortality” didn’t seem advantageous to Renzo; it was pitiful not to have a brain.

Of course, the Undead had many advantages, such as having some way to quickly increase their strength.

What previously seemed like a weakling who couldn’t even defeat a Mad Wise One to Renzo now appeared stronger than many ordinary people.

He looked towards Star Dragon Ridge, though he had never been there, the Undead all came from that direction.

Being able to command these crazier than Mad Wise Ones…

So, this is the great wisdom of the Noble Goliath, oh departed loved ones, I finally understand why you pledged loyalty to the Noble Lord.

Perhaps serving the wise and powerful Nobility is a fortunate affair amid the apocalypse!

…

Prey Town.

Soldiers strictly guarded the city gate, admitting no one without a Gold Badge.

A cloaked figure with a greatsword on his back stood at the city gate but was stopped by two soldiers.

“I am a friend of Lock,” the man with the greatsword said in a deep voice, “I had an appointment with him.”

“Lord Lock?”

The two soldiers looked surprised, but their hands did not retract, “But we follow Lord Ronin’s orders, hand over the Gold Badge!”

“You!” the man sighed in resignation, so that name meant so little here: “I don’t have such a thing, but maybe you could relay a message for me.

I think Lock won’t skimp on the Gold Badge, as long as he knows you helped his friend…”

The man thumbed towards his chest: “Which is me.”

“You’d better be!”

The left soldier turned to go back, while the right soldier glared intently at the man.

After a while, a man came over.

“Wanderer!

Come here,” the man waved to him, and this time the soldiers didn’t stop him.

Then he looked at the two soldiers, thought for a while, and handed them several Gold Badges: “Thank you for your help.”

The two soldiers immediately beamed with joy: “It’s our honor, hehe, thank you, Lord Lock!”

Lock didn’t say much and walked inside with Wanderer.

As they walked, they fell into step beside each other.

“Once a genius Great Knight, now so pitiable, having to bribe your own subordinates?” Wanderer made no attempt to disguise his mockery.

Lock smiled, “What’s the use of talking about the times before the calamity now?”

“What do you think about Lady Serene’s proposal?” Wanderer asked, “I can tell you clearly that Lady Serene has made preparations on both fronts; she has already contacted a group of Wanderers west of the Red Dragon Foothills, and even given them precious Blood Lambs, all to breach Prey Town directly.”

“There are dozens of soldiers here, towering walls, and enough food to last several months,” Lock pointed at his feet and then at the patrolling soldiers on the wall: “Impenetrable!”

“Can it stop those who can fly?” Wanderer countered.

Lock: “…”

Wanderer continued, “You should know very well that pledging your loyalty to Lady Serene is your last chance, Knight Lock.”

He left unsaid that if it weren’t for Ronin of Prey Town’s refusal, this great opportunity would not have come to Lock.

“But the mayor of Prey Town is my brother, Ronin.”

“Does that make any difference?” Wanderer said nonchalantly: “I think you’re more talented than him, he just got lucky drinking that Magic Potion and can throw a Fireball, but you were once the widely known Knight Lock!”

Upon mention of the past, Lock’s face carried a faint pride.

Sneering, Wanderer said, “Just let me be alone with him within fifty paces, and he’s as good as dead!”

Wanderer declared, “Now I can tell you clearly, together with that hyena, we are poised to take over this region for Lady Serene…

whichever of us succeeds will earn the most trust.

I certainly want to succeed, since I’ve already negotiated with the Wanderers on their side.”

“You mean, you can let a gang of red-eyed maniacs and a group of Wanderers together assault Prey Town?” Lock caught on to Wanderer’s implication.

“I’m saying, if you and I collaborate, you could become Lock of Prey, while I would lead the Wanderers and mad red-eyed dogs, serving Lady Serene, then together we take control of the entire western Red Dragon Foothills!” Wanderer’s voice was filled with temptation: “Think about it, Lady Serene also controls the refinement and absorption of Magic Potion, and the New Noble Leon above her, is a true powerhouse!

You will still be a genius; you just lacked a little luck.”

The absolute art of persuasion: it’s not that you’re inadequate, you just lacked a little luck.

“Are you certain, within fifty paces, it’s a sure bet?”

“Maybe, forty-nine paces?” Wanderer bared his teeth in a grin: “Haha, just kidding, as long as you can ensure it’s within an enclosed space, even at 150 paces he won’t be able to escape!”

“Fine, but don’t kill him, just lock him up, he’s my brother.”

“I like how you value family,” Wanderer laughed: “Talking about not hurting him while also plotting to seize power, that’s funnier than any dirty joke, hehe.”

Lock was very decisive, and as soon as he confirmed their collaboration, he immediately took action.
