Chapter 991: Daisies upgrade
?
"Where did you get this confidence from? You know nothing, so please don''t speak as if you know me. My soul and blood are devoted to the Great Serpent Empire!" The smile on the Seventh Prince''s face gradually faded. "Secondly, I''m not like those three scum. Who said I must die? Maybe I have my own way of escaping the planetary spirit''s reaction. Do you really want to test that out?"
Of course, he was lying. There was no such way, at least nothing that he knew of, and he certainly did not intend to sacrifice himself for anyone!
But if he could somehow deceive Sakaar into withdrawing his army from part of the southern region, for example, and destroy the portal in exchange for saving his life, he would have done the Empire a great service. The resources he could pull from the treasury would multiply!No?v(el)B\\jnn
"Yes, I do like to try," Sakaar laughed as if the matter were of no concern to him. The underworld Daisies around him began to shake violently.
"You... have you lost your mind? Don''t you know what you''re getting yourself into?" The Seventh Prince nearly lost his composure at Sakaar''s cold reaction.
"I''ve faced that dark shadow before, I looked it right in the eyes when it started attacking," Sakaar said, shaking his head. "It''s terrifying, something out of nightmares. That shadow wiped out half of my army in front of me, and I couldn''t do a thing about it. But... What do I have to fear?"
"...What are you talking about? You were there?" The Seventh Prince''s eyelid twitched for a
moment...
Jabba had three direct monitoring arrays, but Robin Burton destroyed one of them during the Safe City battle, leaving him with only two. Later, when the Cataclysm Sealing Cubes were activated, Jabba had focused one array on Morin and his army, and the other on Hulak as they were in the most lethal locations in their eyes. They never saw what happened to Sakaar! When they later learned of his survival, they mocked the prince sent with the cube for failing to lock onto the target. One of them even suggested that perhaps Sakaar sensed the danger and quickly escaped through one of those annoying instant portals... But the way Sakaar spoke now suggested that something else had happened, something that could change everything he was planning for!
"Listen, I knew cowards like you would try to avoid the ground battle and target the portal, so I evacuated the army around here and stayed alone. If you want to use that cube, use it
already." Sakaar spoke seriously in his hoarse voice,
Before adding, "But here is a piece of advice for you, If you use it on me, you''ll waste your time and life because I can easily escape from the shadow. It couldn''t touch me when I was using only 10% of the Blood Sea. So, what can it possibly do to me now when fully prepared? And if you want to use it on the portal, feel free, but we''ve already built another one in the southern region, and we haven''t activated it yet, so again, you''ll waste your time and life."
The mocking smile returned to Sakaar''s face. "In either case, whether you manage to escape the planetary spirit''s influence or not..." Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh "...you and everyone on this ship will not leave here alive, whether you activate the cube or not. It''s over, the moment you though about coming here, you were already dead." Sakaar shook his head.
Whoosh Whoosh After it was destroyed, a large amount of blood spilled onto the ground, it made a pool big enough to have its own ecosystem! That bond stayed on the ground for only a moment before it flew back toward Sakaar. Then it compressed, reforming into a new daisy ready for action.
"Hoof... hoof..." The Seventh Prince panted heavily as he watched the scene, how could such an enormous amount of blood be compressed into a small flower the size of a palm?!
"....!!" The soldiers and even the martial emperors inside the warship felt the blood freeze in their veins. Up until this moment, they had been waiting for orders from the Seventh Prince to exit the ship and engage the enemy, but now, they wouldn''t budge from their positions even
if they received the signal!
Whoosh
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh
"No!!" Dozens, even hundreds of thousands of daisies increased their spinning speed, rapidly circling around the ship and the Seventh Prince like hornets. The sight of these things closing
in sent a chill to the bone!
"No need to feel bad, little imperial guard. After my previous battle with the fleet, then facing that damned shadow, I felt the need to adjust my approach a little," Sakaar advanced confidently, placing his hands behind his back. "The underworld daisies are strong in groups, but they''re individually weak, and that won''t do against a strong opponent."
He continued, "So, I divided the amount of blood among the daisies unequally and compressed them at different ratios. Some of these daises are ordinary, while others contain 10% of the Blood Sea, and one of them contains 30%!"
Then Sakaar laughed and leaned forward slightly, "... You tried one with 5%, how about trying one with 10%?"
"Hoof... hoof..." The Seventh Prince''s eyes darted around frantically for a moment, desperately seeking an escape, but to no avail... He straightened up, abandoning his offensive stance, and sighed. "...State your terms. Clearly, if you wanted to kill me, I would already be dead, but I''m still alive. What do you want for me to leave?"
Sakhar''s expression turned slightly harsher as he pointed to the Seventh Prince''s left hand.
"Give me that thing."
