1354 The Greatest Victory in the History of Defense Planet No. 29! (3)
Did the system short-change me on purpose?
Wang Teng thought about reasoning with the system but he remembered how distant and cold it was, so he silently accepted his fate.
I can take things slow and grasp things gradually. Im not in a hurry, Wang Teng consoled himself.
As for the Spirit and Enlightenment drops, there was nothing special about them. He collected them and felt a chill circulate in his mind; the large amount of spirit he used up in the fight was replenished and he didnt feel exhausted anymore.
His mind was hurting because of depletion; fortunately, he managed to recover in time. He was spared from more suffering.
A few seconds passed after collecting the attribute bubbles. Wang Teng stared at the forsaken Solar Dragons body intently.
Many of the attribute bubbles produced by Devil Emperor Bare Brain were special attributes exclusive to that variant dragon species. This body is a treasure!
If he could secure it and beat more attributes out of it, he might be able to get more goodies.
The idea was a little inappropriate, but he didnt have a choice. Attributes were paramount.
Wang Teng wasnt concerned that the body wouldnt drop attributes. He had done it before, getting many useful attributes from the Ancient Gods corpse.
This was proof that corpses could drop bubbles too!
Whats with that look? Bai Shanhou suddenly turned and looked at him with a strange expression.
Does he have some weird fetish? Why is he staring at a corpse with such passion? Its scary.
Wang Tengs heart skipped a beat. He quickly put on a stern expression and replied, Im just thinking what will happen to this corpse.
Did it catch your eye? Bai Shanhou asked curiously.
Wang Teng was quick to deny, No, Im a normal person. Why would I be into a corpse?
A normal person wouldnt use that gaze, Bai Shanhou replied calmly.
Wang Teng: ???
The misunderstanding was going way overboard.
No way. Dont get me wrong; Im innocent, Wang Teng said hurriedly.
I dont care if it crossed your mind. Honestly, this corpse... is a little troublesome. Bai Shanhou looked at the badly wounded corpse with a frown. He seemed worried.
Why do you say that? Wang Teng asked.
Bai Shanhou contemplated for some time before he said, The Solar Dragon Race... takes great care of their own. Bloodline is more important than anything else in their eyes. They feel that theyre one of the rare noble races in all of existence. Then, he added, Thats the truth of it. Their talent is one-of-a-kind and extremely powerful in the universe. They have the right to be proud.
Wang Teng took up where the other left off, So, if they ever learned that the body of one of their own was used by a dark apparition, they will surely kick up a fuss and might even ask for the body back; they would never allow it to land in other peoples hands.
Thats right. Bai Shanhou nodded, giving the young man a look of approval.
It was easy talking to a smart person.
Sounds troublesome. Wang Teng frowned. I beat the crap out of this body real bad. Will they find me?
Based on their personality, maybe. Bai Shanhou gloated.
Seriously? Come on, I snatched the body back on their behalf. Wang Teng felt wronged.
They are a proud race. Its likely they wont take it as a favor. Bai Shanhou shook his head.
This doesnt make sense. Wang Teng felt at a loss.
He defeated Devil Emperor Bare Brain only to be potentially blamed by the Solar Dragon Race. What gives?
This counts as a war spoil. Dare to take it? The senior smiled.
A war spoil? Wang Teng was stunned. I didnt defeat No Brain by myself. General Cameron made the most contribution, and the robot trio you lent me also helped. I would only be reaping the fruit of your labor.
He knew his own ability. Had the general not tired the powerful apparition, and the three robots not helped with stalling tactics, he wouldnt have been able to be a match.
He wanted the dragon corpse but he knew his limits.
The general said, Dont look at me. If it wasnt for you, I would have been killed by Bare Brain. He shook his head and continued, Also, Im not interested in getting the corpse. Its too much trouble, and its useless to me.
I feel that youre trying to push the burden away, Wang Teng said.
Dont spout nonsense. Do you want it? Bai Shanhou rolled his eyes.
Wang Teng gritted his teeth and came up with an excuse. Of course, why wouldnt I? I love studying these unique races. I would cut it open and take a good look. Then, he waved a hand and pulled the body over to keep in his space ring.
The bodys vitality was gone, making it possible for him to directly send it to his space rings storage.
Cut it open? Bai Shanhou looked at him strangely. Quite bold of you, to still dare touch the body, even though you know how troublesome the Solar Dragon Race is.
What kind of hobby is that?
This is normal for someone with a strong desire to learn, isnt it? Wang Teng waffled on.
Bai Shanhou: ...
How is this normal?
What person in their right mind would have such a weird hobby?
He decided not to speak with Wang Teng anymore. He could get affected.
General Cameron had a strange expression too. He suspected that Wang Teng had been brainwashed by Veblen and now the young fellow wanted to cut everything up.
If they spend more time together, would Wang Teng become like Veblen?
Gasp, perish the thought...
That scene would be horrendous!
They continued their conversation as they flew towards Defense Planet No. 29.
The Devil Titan was taken away, but the battle on the planet was still raging.
Considering their speed, they quickly arrived above a mountain. There was a huge mess below, explosions echoing in the air.
An endless amount of martial warriors stained the battlefield with their blood. They risked their lives to slaughter all the dark apparitions.
By looking around, one could see there werent many dark apparitions left; even some mid-tier devil emperors had died.
General Kimberly and the others were surrounding the remaining mid-tier devil emperors. Xuelun and Jefred were around them.
General Cameron took a deep breath and shouted to the people below, Everyone, Devil Emperor Bare Brain is dead!
What?
Xuelun and Jefred were appalled by the news; disbelieving, unwilling to accept the truth.
Even Devil Emperor Bare Brain was defeated!
Their last hope of turning the tide was for the Devil Emperor to win.
However, their last ounce of hope was extinguished.
The devil emperors felt utter despair. Thoughts of escaping crossed their minds, no longer having the drive to continue fighting.
They had yet to give up before this, even though they were at a disadvantage. However, they knew they had no chance of winning now since all their efforts would go down the drain.
It was a lost cause!
On the other hand, the human martial warriors were elated. They started shouting.
Hahaha, we won!
Hahaha, we won!
General Qi Yuanju and the others felt more confident when they saw General Cameron and Wang Teng arrive. They shouted at the martial warriors around them, Soldiers, victory is ours. Follow me and kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Numerous martial warriors shouted. The morale of the army rose to unprecedented heights. They roared as they charged towards the dark apparitions and massacred the lot.
Roar!
The dark apparitions were terrified. Then, a single dark apparition broke down and turned to escape.
Fear was contagious. Other apparitions lost their will to fight and started running away.
The scale tilted heavily to one side.
Humanity finally welcomed their greatest victory on Defense Planet No. 29!
