Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Meeting Before the Lord Dominance CompetitionThere is no Demon Race that cannot be killed, Rosen saw that the second form, when leaving the original host and entering the second body, would lose life when attacked.

    As long as you kill it with a single blow during its host transfer, you can eliminate future troubles forever.

    A red tail has already targeted it, ready to strike at any moment.

    Second form: Good fellow, isn’t your intention too obvious? Afraid I wouldn’t know?

    But soon, the new body of the second form died as well, forcing it to face the issue of changing hosts again.

    At the instant it separated from the body, Rosen’s crimson tail had already pierced it, pinning it to the ground, completely dead.

    Under the probing of his tail, another hero was blown out.

    It was a huge worm fifteen meters long, named "Life-draining Creature," whose ability was to devour vitality.

    It would cling to a target like a magnet and then quickly suck out the target’s life, replenishing its lost life.

    Rosen didn’t know what these heroes were hiding in the dark for; did they think the destruction of the main city had nothing to do with them?

    Acting like this, they can’t just let things rot.

    Since it’s not the kind of creature that can change bodies, Rosen simply put it to rest permanently with a tail.

    "There’s one more." Rosen’s gaze turned to the last untested corner.

    The feeling was like knowing there was a bug hiding in the corner, but being unsure what kind of bug, then touching it and realizing, ah, it’s a cockroach!

    It felt like opening a blind box; sometimes surprises can turn into shocks.

    This time, Rosen sent in three tails simultaneously, not giving the opponent a chance to cause any surprise, delivering his own gift.

    Splurt!

    A hiding giant carcass beetle in the dark widened its eyes, its eyeballs popped out.

    It only wanted to lie on the corpse, but didn’t expect lying could also be dangerous.

    After finishing the lurking Earth Cavern Race hero, Rosen finally shifted his gaze back to the giant beetle.

    This beetle was simply a birthing machine, reproducing ten small beetles per second, able to have an army of thousands in minutes.

    Though the small beetles are weak in strength, the sheer number can kill like ants, not to mention these beetles have parasitic abilities.

    However, the beetles reproduced can only parasitize on near-dead troops, and the parasitized troops remain in a near-dead state.

    If attacking in the small beetle form, their damage equals that of laborers, with even weaker defense than laborers.

    This is a flaw of heroes that summon numerous minions; they cannot summon too powerful minions.

    Rosen’s three tails pierced through the giant beetle again.

    Clearly, it was completely dead as well.

    Only then did he look towards the hero altar beside the beetle’s corpse.

    It was glowing, operating, obviously summoning a hero.

    "Still not giving up?"

    In such AI-controlled territories of the Lord World, they usually don’t understand surrender, even when the situation is hopeless.

    In the real-time strategy game Rosen played, once you send troops towards the enemy’s territory and they realize the situation is hopeless, they surrender immediately, not wasting each other’s time.

    For humans, it’s like that, but for AI, it’s impossible to make such human choices.

    "You want more?" Rosen surrounded the hero altar with a group of troops, recalling the joy of defending the respawn point with buddies in the past.

    When the hero summoning countdown ended, the numerous troops surrounding the hero altar sent the newly summoned Earth Cavern Race hero straight back.

    Ah this?

    The Earth Cavern Race hero was a bit doubtful about its bug life; it hadn’t even seen the situation clearly and got sent off without any chance to show off.

    Seeing the hero altar persist in summoning heroes again, Rosen felt bored and smashed it with his tail.

    This strike also dislodged a diamond treasure chest from below.

    A trace of surprise appeared on Rosen’s face. sea??h thё N?vel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    Previously, the treasure chests under the hero altar were always King’s chests, making him mistakenly believe only King’s chests would be found there.

    Actually, this was not the case.

    It seemed the lucky die had an effect; it requires allies, which doesn’t happen without allies.

    "Next time I’ll find a chance to team up with Ye Yuxuan; her territory is similar to mine, with human and Earth Cavern Race territories twenty kilometers away as well."

    Rosen started planning treasure chests in others’ territories.

    Having returned victorious, he was back at his territory.

    An unfamiliar number called.

    Usually, Rosen wouldn’t answer unfamiliar numbers, assuming they were spam calls or scam calls.

    But with the upcoming Lord Dominance Competition, it could be the Tang Family calling.

    The number looked familiar.

    He had investigated Tang Xichen’s number, and this was exactly it.

    The phone rang for ten seconds, then hung up automatically; it seemed Sister Tang had little patience.

    After quickly changing the note on the number to "Wife," Rosen called back.

    It rang for just a second before Tang Xichen answered.

    "Hey, Rosen, are you busy over there?" Tang Xichen’s warm voice came through.

    This girl was generally cold to strangers, but not to those she recognized.

    "Just finished, the Lord Dominance Competition is in three days. You probably contacted me because of that, right?" Rosen said directly.

    "Exactly, if you have time, come to the Tang Family these days for a simulation match." Tang Xichen’s pleasant voice said.

    "I’m free now, I’ll come over." Rosen said happily.

    Transported back to the town, Rosen drove to the Tang Family.

    He no longer felt out of place like before, dressed in the style of a family young master, feeling at home in the Tang Family.

    However, when meeting Tang Xichen, Rosen was surprised to find someone similar in age beside her.

    "Xichen classmate, is this your relative?"

    "A friend, he came as a backup member; if anything happens to you, he’ll take your place." Tang Xichen said weakly.

    "Accidents?" Rosen doubted any accident could occur during a competition.

    "The Lord Dominance Competition is not just a simple contest; it subtly becomes a family honor battle. The prizes are impressive every year. It’s said this time’s team match prizes include the Lord Awakening Crystal Stone and many dungeon entry tickets."

    Tang Xichen explained.

    "You should know, the Lord Awakening Crystal Stone is hard for big families to obtain a second piece through relations, it’s a luxury for ordinary lords. Just lining up may never get it in a lifetime."

    "I care not for Lord Awakening Crystal Stone nor dungeon tickets, as our Tang Family can get them; I only hope for no issues in this team match and our Tang Family’s guaranteed championship."

    For large families, honor equates to family status, increased status strengthens family cohesion, with pride in a powerful family.

    Further, with Tang Xichen’s awakened S-class Twelve-winged Angel Goddess, failure is unacceptable, or she’d become a laughingstock in Central Plains.

    Notably, the current world number one Nangong Wan is also a Twelve-winged Angel Goddess, and if Tang Xichen fails, it might diminish Central Plains’ prestige, and foreign forces could mock and curse.

    When hero templates become national representatives, individual gains or losses might also represent national image.

    This must be cautious.

    "If you help Xichen win the championship, my Tang Family can grant you a request, even allowing you to join our family for free, no problem." Tang Xuanze’s figure emerged with a smile.

    This was merely a clone but in hero form.

    Rosen’s eyes lit up, indeed his transformation list got another strong option.

    Tang Xuanze patted Rosen’s shoulder as he approached: "There are many chances to show prowess while young. I wonder if you’ll reveal transformation ability in the coming match?"

    This ability guarantees victory, even confronting troublesome heroes, transformation ability secures invincibility.

    Seeing Tang Xuanze and Tang Xichen value Rosen highly, while seemingly ignoring him, the friend brought by Tang Xichen showed an increasingly gloomy face with hints of jealousy.

    Since earlier, the Tang Family forgot to introduce him, and even Rosen hadn’t asked for his name.
