Chapter 338: Ethan’s Pain, Aiden’s Thoughts
Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Ethan’s Pain, Aiden’s Thoughts
The appearance of Scarlet Skull Goblet was already enough to shock all the Red Dwarves present.
But when they saw the golden flames, like golden light burning in the air, they all widened their eyes and stood there with their mouths open.
Compared to Scarlet Skull Goblet, the Legendary Divine Golden Sunflame hit them even harder!
“That’s something that can evolve into eternal fire!”
“Damn, I actually get to see Divine Golden Sunflame? Is this a dream?”
“Why can a human control Divine Golden Sunflame?”
“Human, be careful. Don’t do anything rash!”
“Yes, yes! Divine Golden Sunflame can melt Scarlet Skull Goblet directly. Don’t act on impulse!”
Malcolm’s expression also changed from shock to panic.
If it had been a complete Crimson Crystal, there would have been no need to worry about Divine Golden Sunflame destroying it so quickly.
But the Crimson Crystal on Scarlet Skull Goblet was damaged. If it touched Divine Golden Sunflame, it would melt right away!
Without any hesitation, Malcolm stepped back a few steps and quickly said,
“I mean no harm. Don’t worry.”
“Oh, right. Didn’t you say you wanted to kill this Demon?”
“Yes, of course. Absolutely!”
The moment those words fell, Ethan’s face filled with fear and panic.
He was not actually an idiot. After seeing how the Red Dwarves around him reacted, he knew that what Aiden was holding really was Scarlet Skull Goblet.
“Damn it! Damn it! I was tricked!”
“Those Demon God only sent me here to fool the Red Dwarves because Lord Theodore has gone missing.”
“Even if I get exposed and die, they lose nothing!”
“Fuck!” Ethan cursed wildly in his heart.
Right now, he truly felt like exactly the kind of idiot Aiden had called him.
“No, I have to run!” Ethan instinctively looked up at the hole in the ceiling above the palace.
But at that moment, Malcolm was already beside him, gripping his huge black hammer.
Buzz!
The black hammer tore through the air with brutal force, letting out a sharp, piercing roar.
Bang!
A deafening impact rang out as Ethan desperately tried to escape.
But his body collapsed straight to the ground.
A cloud of blood exploded into the air!
Ethan looked down, only to realize that both his legs had already been turned into blood mist by the terrifying Strength carried by that black hammer!
Bang! Bang!
With a blank expression, Malcolm swung the black hammer again, smashing Ethan’s arms into blood mist with perfect accuracy.
A powerful Demon Duke was reduced in the blink of an eye to a limbless “worm” that could only writhe on the ground.
“AAAAAHHHH!”
“What you’re doing is declaring war on Demon Clan!”
“When Lord Theodore returns, he won’t let any of you off!” Ethan completely broke down.
No matter what, he had never imagined something like this could happen.
Why was Scarlet Skull Goblet in Aiden’s hands?
Why did Aiden have to appear at this exact moment?
Why did the Demon God of Demon Clan send him to carry out this mission?
He didn’t want to die!
He really didn’t want to die!
“Why are you talking so much?” Malcolm frowned and raised the black hammer again.
At that moment, Aiden spoke as fast as he could, “Wait, leave him alive!”
“Hand him over to me!”
Ethan was a level 90 Demon Duke!
If Aiden could kill him, what would happen?
A huge amount of experience points!
High-tier gear, and lots of High-tier materials!
Most importantly, Ethan’s tier should have reached Mythic Rank too.
The progress of Bane of All Races2·genius nightmare mission could also go up!
“Will it trigger a ten-thousand-times drop rate? I doubt it. After all, Ethan wasn’t heavily injured by me.”
“How about I don’t kill him yet, trap him first, and then heal him?”
A crazy idea suddenly came to Aiden’s mind.
Right now, if he killed five level 60 Mythic Rank Demons, he could only get Legendary Rank gear.
If he could really trap Ethan, then he could definitely get the most out of it!
“You want to humiliate me?” Ethan struggled and stared at Aiden with a vicious look.
“I’d rather kill myself than…”
Before Ethan could finish, Aiden’s pupils suddenly shrank.
A rare look of panic and nervousness appeared on his face as he hurriedly said,
“No, no, don’t think that. I really don’t mean to humiliate you.”
“Don’t you want to keep living?”
“I think you were tricked too, right? Don’t you want revenge? Revenge on those who treated you like a pawn they could throw away anytime!”
The atmosphere suddenly became strange.
It was Aiden who wanted Ethan dead, but after Malcolm acted, Aiden started saying things to encourage Ethan.
It was just too weird!
Ethan’s body was in severe pain, and his mind was a complete mess.
“You don’t want me dead? You’re going to let me go?” Ethan asked in disbelief.
Aiden first nodded, then shook his head, and said:
“Don’t think too much about it yet. As long as you’re alive, there’s still hope!”
“Once you’re dead, you’ll have nothing left!”
Ethan wondered if he had heard wrong.
His expression grew complicated. He stared at Aiden in a daze, completely unable to figure out what Aiden was thinking.
If he could keep living, Ethan of course didn’t want to die!
But the problem was, would Aiden really let him live? Would he really spare him?
Now that Aiden had Scarlet Skull Goblet, Malcolm would probably do whatever he said.
While Ethan was still thinking, Aiden quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
“Killing a heavily injured Ethan and killing an Ethan at his peak, but trapped, are totally different!”
“Use Scarlet Skull Goblet directly as a trade. Exchange it for a chance to become a Forgemaster, and have the Red Dwarves help me trap Ethan!” Aiden’s mind raced.
At the same time, he thought of something else.
If possible, could he ask for even more? Could he get Malcolm to hand over prisoners among the Red Dwarves, like some High-tier Red Dwarves who had committed serious crimes, so Aiden could kill them himself?
If Malcolm really agreed, then Aiden would make a huge profit!
Scarlet Skull Goblet had almost no real use to Aiden. Even if he lost it, he wouldn’t feel heartbroken.
But this thing could be exchanged for huge benefits from the Red Dwarves.
If he was even greedier, maybe he could also get the Red Dwarves to help find more Mythic Rank abyss creatures!
“I have a feeling this time I can directly finish Bane of All Races2·genius nightmare!” Aiden’s eyes were full of excitement.
He had already finished the Class Change task. Once he returned to Earth, he could collect the medal, raise his level to level 60, and then take the Class Change task again to level up quickly.
For Aiden, level 70, level 80, or even level 90 would not be difficult at all, as long as he did not get stuck on the Class Change task!
Aiden took a deep breath and quickly calmed down.
He looked at the confused Malcolm and said calmly,
“I can give Scarlet Skull Goblet to you.”
After saying that, Aiden paused.
Malcolm replied without hesitation, “State your terms.”
Aiden glanced at Ethan on the ground from the corner of his eye, then directly summoned Faye and had it hold Scarlet Skull Goblet.
After that, he quickly took out paper and a pen from his storage space and wrote down his conditions.
[First: You need to help me become a Forgemaster.]
[Second: Find a way to trap Ethan, and also help me find suitable Mythic Rank abyss creatures as hunting targets.]
[Third: If you have any Mythic Rank Red Dwarves that need to be executed, hand them over to me so I can kill them.]
There was not much time, so Aiden could not think for too long. He considered it briefly, felt there was no major problem, and directly threw the note to Malcolm.
Malcolm nervously opened the note. As soon as he saw the first condition, hesitation appeared on his face.
Aiden immediately had a bad feeling.
Soon, Malcolm finished reading all the conditions. He let out a sigh and slowly said,
“The first condition is a bit difficult. The second one I can satisfy.”
“As for the third one, that can’t be done either.”
Out of the three conditions, Malcolm could only satisfy one, so Aiden was naturally very unhappy.
The third condition was actually not that important. The key ones were the first and second.
“Relax first. Since I can get Scarlet Skull Goblet through a trade, I won’t threaten you or attack you.”
“Besides, you’re with Syed. He wouldn’t just stand by and let something like that happen.” Malcolm looked at Syed.
Syed nodded and said, “Don’t worry. You’re Fiona’s friend, and you control Divine Golden Sunflame. You won’t be in danger.”
“Malcolm, make the oath.”
Malcolm, the King of the Red Dwarves, did not hesitate at all. He directly raised the black giant hammer in his hand.
When the surrounding Red Dwarves saw this, their expressions immediately turned serious and solemn.
After Malcolm finished making the oath, Aiden lowered his guard a little.
He did not know what would happen if Malcolm broke the oath, but judging from the instinctive reactions of the Red Dwarves around him, the consequences would probably be very serious.
“Our Red Dwarves Clan can indeed make you a Forgemaster. And since you control Divine Golden Sunflame, under normal circumstances, you would have a one hundred percent chance of becoming a Forgemaster.”
“But right now, there’s a problem with the earthfire.” Malcolm let out a sigh.
There was a problem with the earthfire?
Malcolm nodded. Just as he was about to continue explaining, the entire underground city suddenly began to shake violently.
At once, Malcolm, Boros, Karls, and Syed all lowered their heads and looked at the ground.
