You're going to be the world's best sales master; you could probably sell a pen for the price of a car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexander: \"Heh, he hasn't even advanced to arch lord himself, yet he's already boasting and promising to make others arch lords.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kraken: \"Hulk, you're really good at speeches.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"I'm talking serious business with you guys. Can you all be a bit more serious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion felt exasperated. Whenever they discussed serious matters, these guys would just start fooling around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"Based on the situation you described, that spider broodmother is very likely to surrender. For her clan, for herself, she has no choice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"You just need to find an opportunity to send the scroll out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Deputy Commander's statement was very certain, implying he had grasped Lolth's inner thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"Send the scroll out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"Are you sure, Deputy Commander?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion asked very seriously, because this wasn't as simple as just sending out a scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the contract scroll were seized by someone else, Orion couldn't bear the consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seemingly seeing Orion's thoughts, the Deputy Commander explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"Don't worry, I've inscribed a self-destruct formation within the scroll. If anything unexpected happens to the scroll, it will instantly turn into a forbidden curse scroll.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deputy Commander, you sly old fox.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a trace of doubt, Orion believed the Deputy Commander's words and had already sighed with emotion inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, Orion no longer saw the contract scroll in his hand as a trump card to coerce Lolth, but as a forbidden curse that could detonate at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"Deputy Commander, can we not do this? I'm so scared-scared?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leonidas: \"Haha, Hulk, you're hilarious!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexander: \"Set off the forbidden curse, blow him up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kraken: \"Deputy Commander, I'm scared-scared too! I haven't used the magic scroll you gave me yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Kraken's message, Orion, who had been somewhat terrified, suddenly felt cheerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danger needed to be shared; misery loves company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of joy was somewhat odd, tinged with schadenfreude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"This is a defensive measure. Any top-tier mage incorporates countermeasures when crafting scrolls.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"So, a reminder to you little ones: don't carelessly accept magic scrolls from others when you're outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward's temperament was very steady. Unlike Leonidas and Alexander, he was older, more profound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leonidas had that naturally open personality, able to chat about anything anywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexander was the inwardly passionate type; although he didn't talk much usually, he was quite wild on the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Deputy Commander Edward wouldn't joke around with everyone like Leonidas could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"Hulk, find an opportunity and send the contract scroll out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"Don't worry about that spider broodmother not signing. As long as she dares to accept it, she will surrender sooner or later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words were extremely domineering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, Deputy Commander Edward didn't specify whether Lolth the spider broodmother would surrender actively or passively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unconsciously, an image appeared in Orion's mind of the Deputy Commander making Lolth the spider broodmother surrender passively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm, that scene was hard to look at directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having received the Deputy Commander's affirmative reply, Orion peacefully exited the public channel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion had left, but someone else in the team was feeling uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valkorath Realm, Western War Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isabella, riding atop a colossal dragon, felt frantic inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isabella also took out a magic scroll from her storage belt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt, this must have been the welcome gift Deputy Commander Edward gave Isabella when she joined the Champions Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this really a forbidden curse magic inscribed inside?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Isabella didn't believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after asking Alexander, Isabella had no choice but to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isabella suddenly felt some regret. Not long ago, she had charged into a sea of slime molds and encountered a lower Legendary level slime molds parasitic creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isabella used all her means and eventually managed to heavily injure the slime molds parasitic creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, at the last moment, Isabella herself was nearly exhausted, allowing the slime molds parasitic creature to escape for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she had had this magic scroll back then, Isabella felt she definitely could have taken down that slime molds parasitic creature, achieving her first kill of a Legendary level monster in the Valkorath Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With this, if I plan carefully, maybe I can kill a middle, or even upper, legendary-level powerhouse fungal creature.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isabella pondered secretly, feeling a little pleased with her own cleverness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Isabella still underestimated the power of that magic scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magic scroll gifted by the Deputy Commander—let alone middle legendary-level beings, even an ordinary arch lord could be killed if the timing was right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then again, every arch lord had many trump cards and skills; they couldn't be killed just like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isabella put the magic scroll away, looked down at her subordinates fighting against the fungal creatures, and felt doubt rise in her heart again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These fungal creatures are so hard to fight; how did those two handle them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those two,\" of course, referred to Orion and Kraken, who were also Legendary level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also being Legendary level, Isabella was very clear about the power at that level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn't understand how Orion and Kraken could easily handle such vast numbers of fungal creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since she heard that when Kraken and Orion faced arch lord-level fungal creatures, one was injured, and the other was victorious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without seeing such a thing with her own eyes, no matter what Alexander said, Isabella found it hard to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Isabella understood very well that arch lords possessed immense power, as her own father was such an existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To fight against an arch lord while still at Legendary level was simply too difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Isabella's current understanding, she felt it was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least, she couldn't do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emerald Dream Realm. Night fell upon Delilah and her forces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emerald Dream Realm seemed to have no stars. Beneath the night sky flickered an unshakeable sense of oppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fire stones were lit, blazing bonfires illuminating the darkness, dispelling the filth and evil hidden within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the brightly lit temporary camp, most people in the invading armies were looking up at the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because dark shadows would flit across the sky from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those were Dark Bat Hawks, flying-type dark creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their appearance above everyone meant they considered the people below as prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah's mount, the Four-Winged Blood Bat, soared into the sky. This creature, cultivated by Delilah sparing no effort, had progressed rapidly in strength and was extremely powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Onyx, the Four-Winged Blood Bat was another existence in the Stoneheart Horde to reach Alpha peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Part of Delilah's confidence in undertaking the cross-realm invasion also came from this Four-Winged Blood Bat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as she didn't encounter Legendary level powerhouses or their will projections, Delilah couldn't imagine who could possibly handle her Four-Winged Blood Bat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Delilah's foundation, a trump card she displayed openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Four-Winged Blood Bat not only demonstrated Delilah's power but also served as a deterrent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It allowed her to command the armies more smoothly, ensuring strict discipline where orders were executed without fail.\u003C\u002Fp>",1191,"2026-05-29T15:49:28.616Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","fe6ea986bf80d91b99d32ba4f7d14d5d30391c845818c274898f68c68aee606e","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-629","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-627",1606,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftitan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-cover.jpg"]
