Chapter 1186 - 413: Card King

Capítulo 1186: Chapter 413: Card King

Taking a deep breath, the Contractor feigned innocence and said:

“This, you can’t blame us for this…

We also just found out the other side had this hidden power.

Your Excellency, Card King, you know, the highest among us is only Seventh Rank. It’s only natural that we couldn’t detect their 8th Rank combat power…

Moreover, Your Excellency, we have not hidden anything elsewhere. You see that spaceship, those buildings made by the Insect Swarm, those are all advanced Otherworld products.

Even we can barely get in touch with them.

All this intelligence is enough to prove we are not lying!”

His words seemed to be justifying his mistakes, but he subtly reminded the “Card King” of the gains after victory.

This was also finalized when they first negotiated with the powerhouses of this world,

For this battle, they gave up all the battle spoils, delivered into the hands of these powerhouses, to truly tempt them.

This is also due to the uniqueness of this world.

The materials that can drop from a powerful lord not belonging to this world are deadly to the powerhouses of this world.

Their combat power all originates from those cards, and the combat power of those cards requires various materials to build upon.

Regarding the materials of this world, they have already exploited them to the utmost. Several high-tiers couldn’t even break each other’s powers.

Only materials not belonging to this world can maximize combat power, allowing them to obtain cards unique to themselves.

This is also why these powerhouses allowed these Contractors to grow in this world, because they coveted the materials they brought from other worlds.

And the “Card King” also caught on to the meaning in this, even understanding a deeper layer hidden within.

Since they have accepted this gift, they naturally must bear the corresponding risks.

As early as when they got this condition, they suspected whether these Contractors were hiding some key information, after all, the cost and the gains seemed too unmatched.

Just by bullying a group of Seventh Rank or even lower enemies with 8th Rank strength, they could gain an unimaginable amount of high-quality Otherworld materials, this business was almost too good to be true.

Even considering the Contractors’ hatred towards the enemy, it was still unreasonable.

Now that the enemy’s strength has been found out, it can only be said to be expected.

“Hmph, I’ll let you off this time.

But you saw it too, the enemy’s strength is evidently odd. Are you sure you haven’t ‘forgotten’ any intel for this victory?”

Releasing his collar and putting him back on the ground, the Contractor understood the opponent’s meaning, adjusted his collar, and smoothly replied:

“Come to think of it, I did indeed ‘forget’ some intel that might be of help to you…”

The intel they were concealing wasn’t much, mainly about Fan Mao’s high-tier combat power.

After all, if too much were hidden, it would be easy to create loopholes, and if Fan Mao was too weak, asking for support would be unreasonable.

Moreover, these enemies themselves were also part of the harvest for the world’s powerhouses, so there was no reservation regarding Fan Mao’s massive army and many Seventh Ranks.

Repeating all the extra intel he had, “Card King” already had a grasp of the enemy’s strength for this fight.

“Hmph, just a few 8th Ranks, and you think it’s worth hiding from us. You’re underestimating us.

So what if they’re strong?

Not to mention our 8th Rank Card Saints outnumber them, and we’ve accumulated so many cards over the years, each of us holds more 8th Rank cards than they do.

Let’s go, let our allies truly witness our true strength!”

The “Card King” deliberately said to the Contractor, seemingly declaring his strength, and whether there were other motives, the Contractor didn’t know.

“Then I eagerly await, ready for you to deliver victory.

All of us will follow your command. If we win, there will definitely be more rewards later.”

“You said it!”

The “Card King” was waiting for this sentence, leaving behind a word without waiting, and with the surrounding others, threw out card summons for flying mounts to leave.

Watching the departing “Card King,” the Contractor finally smirked, then quickly concealed it again.

If looking from the “Card King”‘s perspective, they certainly felt at a loss, handing over all the war’s spoils willingly.

But only they knew how deep Fan Mao’s background truly was.

As long as they could defeat Fan Mao and eliminate him, the remaining legacy of Fan Mao would be the real prize!

Compared to the world where Fan Mao’s territory was located, what they had now was just a drop in the ocean.

However, despite saying so, he still harbored doubts about whether this “Card King” could achieve victory.

It’s not about disbelief, but about the long-standing estimation of Fan Mao’s combat power.

Although he and his Paradise, even another cooperating Paradise, had never faced Fan Mao directly, they had encountered another lord related to Fan Mao, that Witch Expedition Army.

That time, their world conquest battle was also lost, and if Paradise hadn’t provided a retreat opportunity, he might not have had the chance to advance to Seventh Rank now.

However, they now had no other choices, but to trust the 8th Rank Transcendents of this world.
