Chapter 2206 - Terrifying Old Monster!

2206 Terrifying Old Monster!

“Shadowless” Duan Rui was completely overwhelmed.

His brain seemed to have been hit by a super-high-speed crystal train. The whole world was swirling and changing before him!

It was Wang Kou! It was “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou, a brutal man whom the thirty or so desperadoes did not dare to approach even though he was just standing casually!

Why was he so humble and reverential to the plain-looking young man?

Duan Rui heard gasps from his sides and his back.

Even he had forgotten what breathing was for a moment.

Before they realized what was going on, “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou did something that was even more astonishing.

The precise killing machine hurried to a corner of the room, picked up a large towel, and delivered it to “Senior Li” with both hands.

When Senior Li took it over matter-of-factly, Wang Kou grasped two cans of high-energy nutrition drugs, prepared to cater to his needs.

“…”

Duan Rui’s brain went blank, and he completely lost the ability to think.

Before he prepared to assassinate Wang Kou, he had watched one of the guy’s training videos.

It was in the harsh environment almost close to minus a hundred degrees, where Wang Kou resisted a ferocious beast named “Ice Rock Grizzly” barehandedly and nakedly.

Three seconds. Three seconds was all it took for Wang Kou to strangle the neck of the Ice Rock Grizzly that was more than half a meter in diameter with his hands. He even ripped off the beast’s head as well as the backbone that was as tough as iron.

It was exactly because of the video that Duan Rui made up his mind to end on bad terms with his assassin group instead of going against Wang Kou.

But right now, the hands that could tear an Ice Rock Grizzly apart were shivering slightly and holding two cans of high-energy nutrition drugs, ready to serve them at any moment?

Duan Rui found it hard to believe his eyes.

But his heart was beating faster and faster beyond his control. Even the muscles all over his body were quivering. He felt the sting of a needle on his back too.

Blinking, Duan Rui felt the deepest fear rising in his heart.

He suddenly realized that the vibe that intimidated them from moving forward when they stepped into the observation room was not from Wang Kou.

Wang Kou was already as scared as this. How could he hope to intimidate everyone?

Since the very beginning, it had always been the vibe from the plain-looking young man that terrified the thirty desperadoes and made them unable to move forward!

The young man was not even trying to scare anyone with his spiritual energy. The aftermath of a fierce battle alone was enough to stick so many experts, bandits, and lunatics to exactly where they were!

Where exactly did the queen find such a terrifying monster?

Despite knowing that the guy was on his side, Duan Rui still felt uneasy, like the natural fear of a small predator for a giant primeval beast. Who is he exactly?

Li Yao was still dwelling in the gratifying battle just now. He did not really care how the “heroes” that Li Linghai had recruited from many places viewed him.

Getting to the bottom of it, the real elites of the Imperium of True Human Beings were still mostly gathered in the major families and sects.

Those people who wandered off the main forces, without powerful support, couldn’t have been too strong at all.

After wiping his sweating body casually and drinking up the two cans of high-energy drugs in Wang Kou’s hands, Li Yao finally glanced at Wang Kou and said, “Are you…’Bloody Butcher’ Wang Kou?”

“Yes, I am.”

Wang Kou did not even dare to breathe loudly. He bashed his chest with his fist hard, performing the highest etiquette of the gladiators to Li Yao. “However, in front of Senior Li’s unparalleled might, I do not deserve to be called ‘Bloody Butcher’ at all. Her Grace asked me to come here to…”

Li Yao smiled. Instead of waiting for Wang Kou to finish, he suddenly extended his hands and pressed Wang Kou’s shoulders.

Then, his hands slithered downward from Wang Kou’s shoulders like wandering vipers. From his chest and his abdomen to his thighs, every place was touched by Li Yao.

Duan Rui and the other desperadoes, who were just back to themselves, were even more shocked.

They could all tell that Wang Kou was not captured by the guy willingly.

But the guy was simply too fast, and his uncanny, overwhelming spiritual energy suppressed Wang Kou’s instinctual defense. He caught Wang Kou as if he caught a fish from a water tank!

The movements of the hands were like the suppression of two overwhelming mountains. Any of them would’ve been caught by this immeasurable “Senior Li” and rubbed and kneaded however the guy wanted!

It was not until then that everybody began to realize why the murderous and fearless “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou was so respectful toward “Senior Li”.

“You are rather strong, young man!”

After he was done touching Wang Kou, Li Yao patted his shoulders and smiled. “Don’t be nervous. I mean you no harm. Her Grace asked you to come to me so that I can help adjust and strengthen your crystal suits. Naturally, I need to figure out your body conditions and your battle features in order for me to bring out your maximal combat ability, right?”

“Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou’s face was as pale as paper. Even when Li Yao touched his abdomen and his most critical body part, he could not summon any strength to counterattack at all. Even his voice began to shake as he replied, “Yes, of course. Thank you for your trouble, Senior. Whatever you need me to do, Senior Li, just say the word!”

“Very good. You can help me take a look at those guys.”

Li Yao hinted at Duan Rui and the other desperadoes. “Her Grace asked me to help you adjust and modify your crystal suits. But my time is very limited. Those who are not above average experts do not need to waste my time. You should know most of those people, right? See if any of them are unqualified and make sure they do not hinder me.”

“Yes, I’ll check them immediately.”

“Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou quickly turned around and began to observe the newcomers. It was not until a long time later that he turned around again and said, “Senior Li, those people that Her Grace has selected carefully are indeed famous experts at the borderland of the Imperium. They shouldn’t be nuisances for Senior Li on the battlefield.”

“That’s good.”

Li Yao smiled and walked into the test field again with his hands behind his back. “It’s already cleaned up. Come with me and let’s begin the next half of the game!”

Li Yao walked into the test field first.

“Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou followed him closely.

“Shadowless” Duan Rui and other desperadoes, not having the courage to say anything, simply walked forward in their shadows prudently.

Right when they couldn’t hold back their curiosity anymore, they heard the voice of “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou that had been compressed into a thread with the technique of private talk.

“You people better cheer yourselves up! I vouched for you before Senior Li just now. It is your fortune to receive tutelage from Senior Li. You’d better see that Senior Li is satisfied and do not piss off the old monster, or I will kill you and flay you!”

Pausing for a moment, “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou knew that everybody was still confused. He continued explaining in a low voice, “This old monster is named ‘Vulture Li Yao’, an expert in the Divinity Transformation Stage that Her Grace has recruited from somewhere. Also, he is a hybrid-type expert talented in both fighting and refining!

“He is now Her Grace’s personal bodyguard and magical equipment consultant. Her Grace’s safety and the magical equipment she uses are all his responsibilities. Do you have any idea what that means?”

Personal bodyguard and magical equipment consultant!

Duan Rui and the other desperadoes were all shocked.

Of course they knew what it meant. In terms of position and rank, “personal bodyguard” and “magical equipment consultant” were barely worth mentioning.

But the two jobs were both critical posts that were often involved in the most central secrets. Only the closest, most trusted subordinates were qualified for such jobs. When those people were sent out, they would often become powerful officials!

“Vulture Li Yao” was an unfamiliar name. They had never heard such a Divinity Transformation Stage expert in the Imperium before.

However, if he was a mysterious expert that Her Grace raised for decades for the great cause, it would be rather understandable.

“You did not see the old monster’s craziness just now. When you see it later, you will know that every word I said is true!”

“Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou continued his lecture, “Besides, the old monster’s expertise in refining is also extraordinary. The fact that Her Grace has given us the opportunity to have our crystal suits modified and strengthened by Vulture Li Yao in person is evident enough of the importance she attaches to us. You better seize it well and do not cause any trouble. If someone pisses off the old monster and he storms off without strengthening the crystal suits for us, I’ll certainly mince them into pieces and make sure that they will eat their meat in person!”

Duan Rui and other desperadoes were all greatly disturbed.

While they were at a loss, a smiling voice suddenly joined the conversation. “Hahahaha. Don’t listen to Wang Kou’s nonsense. In fact, I am a very casual, low-key, and charismatic man. As long as you give me a chance for me to enjoy myself, I’ll certainly help you adjust your crystal suit well!”

It was exactly the voice of “Vulture Li Yao”!

All the desperadoes were flabbergasted. They did not expect the old monster’s expertise to be so terrifyingly high that he could intercept and monitor the private talk of such an expert like “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou.

It must be noted that Wang Kou was moving while he was talking, and he obviously changed the frequency of his soundwave almost ten times during the private talk!

But still, the old monster caught all of it!

As if hit by a bolt of lightning, “Bloody Butcher” Wang Kou was blushing so hard that his face was almost exploding. He was completely stunned!

“Don’t be so formal. As I said, I am very casual, approachable, and charismatic. You can talk about anything you want. Just consider that I am not here.”

With his hands behind his back, Li Yao walked forward slowly and spoke to the thirty desperadoes at the same time while smiling, “On the other hand, although I do not object to being called an ‘old monster’, you’d better call me that behind my back when you discuss me.

“Alright. This is the test field with random gravity. Come on and relax. Perform all your skills. Let me see if you are qualified to wear the crystal suits that I modify and strong enough to fight by the side of ‘Vulture Li Yao’!”
