Chapter 402: Twelve Knights of Despair
Nirvana Auction House.
Ling Feiyu had never expected that the Floating Island Schematics that so many elites were fighting for was actually created by the giant red rabbit next to her.
“He likes to create things so he built Mechanus. You like to kill, so you created the Floating Island. You look so cute, but you like to kill?” Ling Feiyu asked him curiously.
“Yes, a lot. But there was this one time when I entered the Indifference stage and killed my wife. I had since left the Floating Island and given up on the Twelve Shifter Knights of Despair,” And when Bobo said that, he felt sorrowful.
Ling Feiyu gasped in shocked, “Killed your own wife?!”
Bobo then raised his head and looked out of the Nirvana Auction house through the window, his eyes filled with regret, and said, “Shifters have three buffs. Once they become too furious or annoyed, they would enter a state of Indifference, and they would kill anyone and have no emotions to speak of. The Shifter Emperor has already entered the Berserk and Slaughter states, and he almost entered the Indifference state. You must be careful next time.”
“Alright,” When Ling Feiyu heard Bobo said that, it raised an alarm bell in her heart. At the same time, she swore that she would never let Jiang Feng enter the Indifference state.
“Right, bobo. Other than the Twelve Knights of Despair, is there anything else?” Ling Feiyu asked, “And who was the one who created Mechanus?”
“There is nothing else on the Floating Island other than the Twelve Knights of Despair. It is just an island floating in the air. Of course, you cannot compare it to the Ancient City of the Shifter Emperor.” Bobo then added, “The creator of Mechanus is also a rabbit, but it is a grey rabbit. His name is Daya, and we all call him Professor Bucktooth.
“Are the Twelve Knights of Despair powerful?” Ling Feiyu asked.
“The Twelve Knights of Despair that I had raised were killed by me. Also, the Twelve Knights of Despair aren’t living things, but twelve rings. I asked Saint Ou Yezi to forge the twelve rings for me. Each of them had been fused with countless amounts of blood, and they carry very heavy aggressiveness. If the Shifter Emperor has the twelve rings, they would greatly increase his chances of winning the Great Divine-Infernal War since one of those rings could create a super-elite, one that can solo thousands of soldiers!”
When Bobo said that, his eyes were beaming and filled with pride.
Since he was the one that had created the molds for the twelve rings, and Ou Yezi forging it, allowed it to shine bright and become famous.
Thinking back, he too had fought from the Divine Dominion Continent to Dragonquarry.
And in order to defeat his enemies who were more powerful than him on Dragonquarry, he had crafted the Twelve Knights of Despair.
Once the Twelve Knights of Despair were dispatched, no one would dare to fight against them!
Wherever they go, not even a blade of grass remained, and they helped him to quickly build his foundation on Dragonquarry.
Even now when the NPCs of Dragonquarry talk about the Twelve Knights of Despair, they would immediately remember the fear.
Of course, he had also lost his wife after because of the Twelve Knights of Despair, and he had made many enemies. Helplessly, he had been staying here in Nirvana.
“…That terrifying?”
Ling Feiyu drew in a cold breath, but there was suspicion in her eyes as she thought to herself, ‘It’s just a piece of equipment. How could it defeat thousands of enemy soldiers? That’s too much.’
Bobo saw Ling Feiyu’s suspicious eyes and sneered, “Just you wait. When the Twelve Knights of Despair appear, you will know how powerful they are!”
“Yes, I look forward to that,” Ling Feiyu said to him with a smile.
After chatting some more with Bobo and getting more information about the Floating Island, she then contacted Jiang Feng and told him everything that she knew.
…
“Hm? Bobo was the original owner of the Floating Island? Are the Twelve Knights of Despair that powerful?” Jiang Feng mumbled to himself in astonishment when he saw the messages that Ling Feiyu had sent him as he sat on the Rainbow Sash.
“The Twelve Knights of Despair!” Ling Luo mumbled with shock.
Jiang Feng turned and looked at Ling Luo, and asked her curiously, “You’ve heard about the Twelve Knights of Despair.”
Ling Luo paused, and then gave him an honest smile and said, “No, but they do sound very badass.”
“Yeah, it’s quite cool just by listening to it,” Jiang Feng did not discover anything weird with Ling Luo, then pulled back his attention.
‘Whoa… That was scary, I was almost exposed!’ Ling Luo patted her chest then looked at Jiang Feng who had shifted his gaze.
‘The Twelve Knights of Despair. Isn’t that the twelve items that had affected my design for Divine Dominion a few thousand years ago? Wasn’t that rabbit done for? Why would he still be here? If the Twelve Knights of Despair really are on the floating island, then there would be a good show coming up.’ The moment she heard the words “Twelve Knights of Despair,” something popped up in her mind.
***
Imperial Palace, Tianzi City.
King Zhou was playing in the pool with a group of concubines as if he could never leave the pool.
Whoosh!
At this time, a man filled with malevolence with a horn appeared in the pool.
The man was none other than Shi Long, the Hellraisers’ Inheritor that had traveled forth to the Divine Dominion Continent with Black Widow.
When Shi Long came in, he glanced at the beautiful Su Daji, and then said to King Zhou, “Report, my king. The Shifter Emperor is now heading to the floating island, should we stop him?”
King Zhou closed his eyes as he enjoyed and said, “No need. The Floating Island is only an empty island. There is no benefit for him to gain from being there.”
Shi Long then said with a frown, “My king, our boss from Nirvana Auction House has sent us information that the Twelve Knights of Despair might be on the Floating Island.
If Jiang Feng was here he would be shocked.
King Zhou was already very powerful, but he had a boss, too?
That meant that beyond King Zhou, there were others leading them.
“What?!”
When King Zhou heard of Shi Long’s report, he suddenly stood up from the pool with terror on his face. “You said the Twelve Knights of Despair? You sure that the information is correct?”
“Yes, they are. This information was from Bobo, the creator of the Twelve Knights of Despair,” Shi Long said.
“No, if the Shifter Emperor obtains the Twelve Knights of Despair and then manage to fully cultivate them, we would be doomed. No, this time, I better go and stop him myself. If we can get the Twelve Knights of Despair, then no one would be able to overthrow our rule!” King Zhou said.
“No need to go on your own. I alone would be enough to deal with the Shifter Emperor!” Shi Long said with confidence.
“Your power and the Black Widow’s are around the same. Black Widow had already died once in his hands. If you go, the result would be the same. I better go there myself to prevent any mishap,” King Zhou said with a frown.
After hearing King Zhou’s reply, Shi Long slightly frowned.
In truth, Shi Long had his own selfish reason. If he could kill Jiang Feng, then he could obtain the Twelve Knights of Despair. Then, there was no need for him to put his life on the line for helping King Zhou.
King Zhou equipped himself properly and then disappeared from the pool in the blink of an eye.
Shi Long smiled at Su Daji and then left after King Zhou did.
When Su Daji and Su Ningxiang saw that King Zhou and Shi Long had left, they exchanged a glance and did not stay within the pool. They returned to their room and began to transmit information to Jiang Feng.
