Titan King: Ascension of the Giant-Chapter 631: Cautious enough

"Who should I seek to help me?"

"Onyx?"

"Or Delilah?"

In Selenis's network, these two possessed the most power and strength.

After Soraya left, within the Stoneheart Horde, she had only maintained contact with these two.

Selenis was muttering to herself, contemplating the future.

Beside her, Arden also had his own considerations.

Arden already had a flying mount, and his Storm Vulture had been with him for a long time; they had a tacit understanding and affection.

Arden wasn't very interested in taming collars, but he was extremely eager to advance to Alpha peak, and even to Legendary level.

Having spent some time with Earthshaker, Gronthar, and Drakthul, he had also learned some confidential matters.

Knowing that Orion would provide opportunities to advance to Legendary level was the biggest attraction for Arden.

"Should I be more proactive?"

"My strength isn't bad, I'm not at the bottom of the pile, and I also have my Storm Vulture. I have my own advantages."

"When I go back this time, I should make a trip to Stoneheart City, and it would be best to request an audience with Orion."

Orion's initial plans were very meticulous; he looked far ahead, his vision profound.

As the Stoneheart Horde developed and grew, more and more beings could find what they sought within the Horde.

Items like taming collars were one of the core driving forces uniting everyone to contribute to the horde.

Orion had already considered this when he exchanged for the taming collars and placed them in the treasury.

Restricting access only to council members was also an indirect way of attracting talent and motivating horde members.

"Let's go. There still aren't enough corpses; our mission this time is quite heavy!"

Drakthul interrupted the thoughtful group, shouldered his spiked club, and led the team out of the valley.

Subsequently, Earthshaker, Gronthar, Selenis, and Arden all followed with determined expressions.

What drives killing is always profit.

...

The void passage. Lolth the Spider Queen gave no reaction, which disappointed Orion immensely.

Thus, Orion immersed part of his mind into the Survivor's Platform, went to the Champions Alliance, and informed everyone of the progress.

Hulk: "Deputy Commander, I've sent the scroll out. I saw Lolth the Spider Queen receive it with my own eyes. Has she signed the contract?"

In fact, to know if Lolth had made any further moves, directly asking Deputy Commander Edward was the wisest choice.

The Deputy Commander would know best if the contract had been activated.

Edward: "I have no sensation here, which means she hasn't signed the contract."

Leonidas: "This spider broodmother is too cautious, isn't she? She even doubts a divine power aura?"

Alexander: "Do you think everyone is like you? Easily getting a leash put on?"

Leonidas: "Ahem... Mr. Alexander, let's talk nicely. Don't bring up the past."

This was a rare scene: Leonidas addressing Alexander as "Mr. Alexander" instead of just Alexander.

It seemed Leonidas, Alexander, and Arthas must have had some interesting incidents in the past years.

This was Orion's guess, and also Kraken's.

Kraken: "Big Bosses, what's the story behind the leash?"

Hulk: "Quick, tell us about your glorious past deeds."

Leonidas: "You two little brats, don't ask too much about adult matters. Careful, or I'll beat you up!"

Now, Orion and Kraken were even more curious.

Judging from Leonidas's reaction, it was definitely an embarrassing incident.

However, before everyone could continue their banter, the Deputy Commander spoke.

Edward: "The contract scroll not being opened immediately is actually a good thing."

Edward: "It shows that spider broodmother is cautious enough. Such a temperament means she will keep secrets."

Edward: "Her not signing the contract now means she hasn't encountered real difficulties yet."

Edward: "When she runs into trouble, that will be the time for us to subdue her."

Edward: "I speculate that this spider broodmother will actively surrender, most likely after the dark beast tides end."

Edward: "A cautious next step is often a test."

The Deputy Commander's words quieted everyone down.

No one jumped out to clown around; this was serious business, and they knew their limits.

Hulk: "What does she want to test?"

In the end, Orion couldn't hold back and asked the question on his mind.

Edward: "To test if demigod powerhouses truly exist, to test if this is all a scam."

Edward: "Every naturally evolved race(clan) broodmother possesses extraordinary intelligence, and this spider broodmother is no exception."

Edward: "She will first confirm our existence, then test our strength. Only when there are no doubts left and she has no other way out will she finally choose to surrender."

Edward: "Just wait. She will open the scroll sooner or later."

Orion could tell that Deputy Commander Edward had already developed an interest in Lolth the Spider Queen.

Previously, when Orion proposed this plan and the Deputy Commander provided the contract scroll, it was merely material assistance for Orion, help provided within his capabilities.

Taking in a slave to open an invasion passage for everyone was an ordinary, trivial matter for Edward.

But it was different now; Lolth's cautious nature had piqued Deputy Commander Edward's interest.

If Lolth actively surrendered and also showed good potential and talent...

...it would mean she would definitely receive Edward's cultivation. freewebnøvel.com

To put it bluntly, if Lolth was smart, she would have a great future.

"What a lucky fellow she is!"

"If she knew all this, she would surely be endlessly grateful to me."

"When she appears again, I must continue to demand benefits from her."

These were Orion's inner thoughts; he truly felt that Lolth the Spider Queen had struck it big this time.

Leonidas: "Big fella, you need to speed things up on your end too!"

Leonidas: "When the time comes, we shall join forces. Then you will witness a tide of countless beasts stampeding, the very skies bleeding new colors, and throughout all heavens and earth, I shall reign as the ultimate power!"

Hulk: "Pretty epic, Leonidas! But just 'the world's colors shift'? If we're talking ultimate supremacy here, shouldn't the minimum be something like, 'and the land was so blasted, not even a blade of grass remained'?"

Leonidas: "Hahaha... Exactly!"

Hulk: "Bro, I'm afraid you've forgotten, arch lord beings cannot descend there."

Leonidas: "Who said I have to go personally? Will projection, avatar, duplicate, mirror image... which one can't descend? Don't you have one? Or are you saying you don't know?"

Hulk: "..."

Alright, after seeing Leonidas's explanation, Orion automatically fell silent.

Orion also had two mirror avatars, which he had always kept hidden as trump cards.

Now it seemed that not only Edward had one, but even Leonidas did.

It was even possible that every member in the Champions Alliance had one.

"I definitely cannot become complacent with my current achievements!"

Orion warned himself not to underestimate anyone in the world, especially those survivors. Every survivor had the potential to grow into an extremely powerful being.

Actually, Orion had this idea long ago, but this really wasn't the time to bring Leonidas and Alexander over.

The opening of a void passage would definitely attract the attention of demigod powerhouses.

If void energy fluctuations were caused at this time, they would easily be detected.
