136 I Can’t Be The Only One Scammed!
In the end, the Ascetics were massacred by the Hell Goblin Knights.
Evelyn almost fainted in anger and defeat. ‘Why couldn’t these b*stards understand my hint?!’
When the last Ascetic was eliminated, the duel space determined Su Wan as the winner. All of Evelyn’s resources were transferred to Su Wan.
Su Wan laughed. “Thank you! I kindly accept your resources.”
In the beginning, Su Wan had thought that the Desperate Battle ability was a double-edged sword. She might get to have all the resources if she won. But the opposite was also true. The enemy, if they won, would snatch away all her resources too.
Su Wan finally understood the loopholes of the ability. For stronger enemies, her troops might not be a match. But she could also use the White Dragon Saint, and Xu Yuan. If Xu Yuan applied a buff on the White Dragon Saint in the duel space, he would be invincible. She could totally win any fight.
Next time, she would use the White Dragon and his power to threaten the others to admit defeat!
Su Wan felt that her plan was perfect.
Once the duel was over, Gadar removed the rag from Evelyn’s mouth.
“B*stard! You shameless scum!” Evelyn screamed.
“Shameless? I am shameless?” said Gadar in disdain. “When your hero ganged up to bully my hero, why didn’t you stop him? Wasn’t that shameless?”
Even though the White Dragon Saint had been on their side, the Radiant Envoy readily accepting to band with him to attack someone who was alone had been a very shameless and immoral act.
“Bah! It’s obvious that the Radiant Envoy had already sensed something was amiss, so he pretended to band up with the white dragon,” said Evelyn, trying to clear up his name.
She refused to admit that the Radiant Envoy had indeed ganged up on the Fallen Angel.
Su Wan walked to Evelyn and looked down at her. “I have taken all your resources. You are our prisoner,” she said. “You have two choices: either get eliminated or help us eliminate the others.”
Su Wan was very intimidating at that moment. Xu Yuan’s domineering influence had rubbed off on her. She had also changed.
Her words didn’t bring any despair to Evelyn. But it didn’t give her any hope, either.
If Su Wan wanted to cause despair, Evelyn might really withdraw from the competition. What Su Wan wanted was for Evelyn to help them eliminate others because Evelyn might actually have some information about the other Lords.
Evelyn was conflicted. She didn’t like the situation she was in. Su Wan had used despicable means to win against her. However, she felt that she couldn’t let everything go like this. Maybe someone could defeat Su Wan.
Su Wan had snatched her gem away, so she had no hope of advancing in the competition anymore. Evelyn decided that she might as well help her captor.
She was scammed by Su Wan and her resources were down to zero. The other Lords wouldn’t have an easy time either.
Evelyn looked forward to it. She wondered what would happen when the other Lords were also cheated out of their wealth.
Evelyn made up her mind. She would help Su Wan find the others.
“I know a Lord nearby…,” she said. “I have a grudge against her. I can act as bait to lure her here.”
Evelyn told Su wan about the Overlord. Her name was Lina, and she had an SSS-class Dark-Type hero, the Dark Enchanter.
“The Dark Enchanter’s ability is very strange,” said Evelyn. Her face became dark.
Lina’s hero was a mage. However, she was different from other mages. All mages had elemental powers. However, the Dark Enchanter’s power was strange. It did not follow the elemental laws.
“Once, the Dark Enchanter cursed my Ascetics to turn into frogs…”
Evelyn looked terrified, as though recalling the memories was too much for her.
“The Dark Enchanter uses Dark Magic. That kind of magic is irrational. It doesn’t abide by the normal rules. If you think about it, water and fire are opposite elements. They can’t be put together. But the Dark Enchanter can make the fire burn on water. Dark Magic can make clouds opaque, allowing them to lift objects and fly away. It can even make the stars fall from the sky!”
Evelyn explained to Su Wan how Dark Magic could bypass universal rules. The White Dragon Saint and the Fallen Angel were stunned. They had heard about Dark Magic and mages who knew how to use it. But they had never experienced it first-hand.
The White Dragon Saint and the Fallen Angel were a little confused. However, they masked their doubts in front of Xu Yuan. They could not be seen confused or scared in front of him!
“Hmph! Dark Enchanter, you say?” said the White Dragon Saint. “If she blocks our way, we will just fight her.”
Evelyn lowered her head. A vicious smile appeared on her face. It was better this way. The more they underestimated her, the more careless they would get. She would lead them to the Dark Enchanter and when they planned their sneak attack, she would alert the mage. The Dark Enchanter was so stealthy and powerful that she could even kill the White Dragon Saint!
Evelyn wanted revenge. She would bide her time patiently.
“I’ll take you to Lina,” she said.
Evelyn earnestly expressed that she knew Lina very well. She could absolutely lead them to her.
The Radiant Envoy seemed to want to say something, but Evelyn glared at him. “Don’t you dare!”
Evelyn was afraid he would expose her plan to the enemy even before it was implemented.
She wanted to lead Su Wan and others to Lina. They would obviously plan an attack. At that time, the Dark Enchanter would take care of them. Evelyn would stand at the side and watch them pay for what they did to her. She would have her revenge!
