Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord Chapter 88 I Will Give You Some Buff Later, We Can Kill Our Way Through

88 I Will Give You Some Buff Later, We Can Kill Our Way Through
On a grassy plain, ten contestants and their respective heroes arrived. The Beastmen Tribe stronghold was in the north.
“The Beastmen Tribe isn’t very powerful, but they aren’t particularly weak, either.” The instructor faced the ten contestants. “Based on your current strength, you cannot fight the Beastmen Tribe alone. You will need to unite and cooperate to fight against them.”
The instructor left after briefly laying out the rules for the upcoming fight. Su Wan saw that they were all familiar. They were the ones she had fought with in the selection round.
They had accepted Su Wan as their leader this time. “Captain, what should we do next?”
With such a powerful and beautiful leader, the male contestants had no objection. Before Su Wan could answer, another contestant approached her to suggest his plan.
“Captain, I think we should first send out scouts to get more information on the enemy before taking any actions.”
Many others joined in with their own ideas. Everyone was offering their cooperation. They had accepted Su Wan as their leader. A few female contestants were a little dejected.
They all knew about Su Wan’s exemplary battle victories. Seeing how the male contestants willingly cooperated with Su Wan, they felt helpless. However, they couldn’t compare with Su Wan.
Just when everyone’s eyes were focused on Su Wan, she leaned down and looked at her hero. “Scammer Xu, what do you think?” she asked.
Su Wan was asking for her hero’s opinion. She had always discussed her plans with him, so it had become a habit. Although she called him “Scammer Xu”, she still cared about his opinions. If she didn’t ask him for his opinion at such an important event, she would feel uncomfortable.
Xu Yuan looked into the distance where the Beastmen Tribe was supposed to be. He felt that these Beastmen shouldn’t be shared with the others. He wanted Su Wan to fight them all on her own. He wanted all the experience points!
“In my opinion, we should just rely on our own abilities,” said Xu Yuan. He only cared about experience points. Whoever made the most kills would gain more experience.
Others were confused by his answer. Su Wan understood him perfectly. She expected him to say something like that. He wanted them to annihilate the Beastmen Tribe by themselves, without cooperating with anybody else.
However, Su Wan couldn’t tell everyone about it. She knew that the academy’s sole purpose in preparing this mock tournament was to teach them to work together as a team. Su Wan was afraid that saying something like this would shake the morale of the team and turn them against her instead.
She found an excuse. She volunteered to scout the area to get more information on their enemy. She quickly took Xu Yuan away with her.
“Scammer Xu,” she said, once they were away from the team. “The academy’s intention is to teach us to work as a team.”
She begged him to cooperate. Xu Yuan rolled his eyes in disdain. Su Wan felt hopeless.
“Cooperate?” said Xu Yuan. His mood seemed to shift from disdain to enthusiasm. “That’s something the weak do. We don’t have to do that.” He waved his claws dismissively. “It’s just a Beastmen Tribe. Believe in yourself. You can destroy them all on your own.”
He looked at Su Wan. “I will give you some Buff later. We can kill our way through the Beastmen Tribe and put an end to this boring mock tournament.”
Su Wan was stunned. She didn’t even know what to say to him. ‘Why is Xu Yuan so enthusiastic about killing monsters?’
Su Wan’s first thought was that there was something terribly wrong. Xu Yuan had always been lazy. He had never shown a shred of interest when they fought enemies. Usually, Su Wan and the rest of the troops took care of fights and killing monsters, while he slept soundly.
However, Xu Yuan had suddenly shown an interest in killing monsters and even actively followed her to the battlefield. The situation confused Su Wan. She wasn’t sure what was going on.
It was a good thing that Xu Yuan was trying to involve himself in these matters, but Su Wan still couldn’t get rid of the feeling that something was wrong.
However, she didn’t think that Xu Yuan would ever harm her. He often tricked her, but Xu Yuan had always proved reliable when she needed his help.
Su Wan thought about the situation for a while. If Xu Yuan was being so active, it meant he had a request. She recalled the time when the Territory Core was updated to Level 2. At that time, she had been angry at Xu Yuan because she thought he had done so many useless things to the territory. She had not known he was paving the way to upgrade the territory.
This felt like the same thing. Xu Yuan was planning something and wanted Su Wan to cooperate to succeed in it.
If she asked him directly, he wouldn’t answer her. So, she used another strategy. She set a condition to cooperate.
“Scammer Xu, you are so eager to make me fight the Beastmen alone. Are you plotting something?” she asked. “I will do what you want on one condition.” She held one finger up in the air. “You have to help me strengthen the troops. I am no match for the Beastmen Tribe alone.”
The grassland was far from her territory and the territories of the other Lords. However, they could open a Dimensional Portal and summon their troops at any time.
Su Wan had guessed that it was Xu Yuan who had been using buff on the troops to make them stronger, but she didn’t have evidence.
She framed her condition in such a way that implied that she already knew the truth and there was no use for him to keep hiding it. If Xu Yuan agreed to her condition, it would mean that the previous transformation and mutation of the troops were all his doing. This would prove, once and for all, that Xu Yuan indeed had a powerful auxiliary ability.
