Chapter 2775: Contract

Chapter 2775: Chapter 2775: Contract

Julius Reed never imagined that in this world even the Double Dragon Jade Pendant could have fakes.

When it comes to faking other things, there’s always a purpose.

Using the cheapest cost to exchange for a substantial return.

And the Double Dragon Jade Pendant?

It was originally a key Hades used to tempt some Martial Artists, hoping to hear stories in exchange for their lives.

Such a thing is extremely costly.

Moreover, it leads to the underworld.

After all, the ultimate purpose of the Double Dragon Jade Pendant is to bring a person’s soul to the underworld.

Now, this fake Double Dragon Jade Pendant clearly had experienced the real one.

And knows its rules.

But the biggest issue is, the reason the Double Dragon Jade Pendant is powerful is because it’s a key to open the gates of the underworld.

The terrifying thing about this key is that it leads to the underworld.

To put it bluntly, this pendant is just an introduction, it’s the connection to the underworld that is most terrifying.

What use is a fake Double Dragon Jade Pendant?

Unless there’s also a fake underworld.

Suddenly, Julius Reed realized what was wrong.

Who would be someone who experienced the Double Dragon Jade Pendant but didn’t die?

In this world, he didn’t know a third person who had experienced all this.

In front of the Double Dragon Jade Pendant, apart from Julius Reed escaping a calamity, there was one more person!

That person was Silvio Reed!

Maybe there are others who were very lucky, but he hadn’t heard of them till now.

And this thing was on Longwu.

Longwu had experienced the Double Dragon Jade Pendant and knew its secrets.

Anyone who understood Longwu and had also experienced the Double Dragon Jade Pendant and had grudges with Julius Reed.

Apart from Silvio Reed, Julius Reed couldn’t think of a second person right now!

But...

Is this person really Silvio Reed?

Why is Silvio Reed doing this?

Just to disgust me?

Or for revenge?

In the darkness, Julius Reed was constantly thinking.

That voice clearly seemed a little impatient.

"Do you want this power or not? If you hesitate, you’ll lose everything! Lose the opportunity, lose the dreams you want!"

This tone carried urgency and temptation.

It was very much like the tactics of some shopping apps.

"Alright, please grant me the power."

Julius Reed let out a cold laugh.

He wanted to see exactly what means this fake Double Dragon Jade Pendant possessed!

The reason the real Double Dragon Jade Pendant is so powerful is because it has the underworld behind it.

Those so-called powers are taught by the strange people within the underworld.

The fake Double Dragon Jade Pendant naturally doesn’t have these.

So it can’t possibly give power to people.

What’s the purpose of doing this will soon be revealed.

Julius Reed even felt a little anticipation, anticipating what surprise this fake Double Dragon Jade Pendant could bring.

Suddenly.

A white light illuminated in front of him.

Followed by, a woman walked out.

"Who are you?" Julius Reed eyed the woman in front of him, asking with great interest, "Are you the one who was speaking? But the voice was clearly a man’s?"

"No, I am just the person responsible for bringing this power to you." The woman wore a white long dress, her black hair draped over her shoulders, like a fairy.

Most importantly, there was a wreath on her head.

Julius Reed couldn’t identify the type of flowers in the wreath.

They seemed very familiar, but he couldn’t recall them at the moment.

"This is the contract, as long as you leave your handprint, you will gain the power."

After finishing her words, the woman handed over a white jade plate in front of Julius Reed.

There was a piece of paper inside.

There was nothing on the paper.

Blank.

Only at the very bottom, there was a golden box.

"What do you mean by this?" Julius Reed smiled as he looked at the woman, pointing at the paper in the tray, "A blank document for me to sign? This is a joke?"

As expected.

It was all a scam.

There’s nothing on it.

No power could be obtained, no effect could be seen.

They couldn’t even take away the soul.

So...

What’s the purpose of forging this thing?

What is it?

Julius Reed looked around, it was pitch black.

Nothing could be seen.

Only behind the woman, there was a white light!

The white light illuminated the stairs, and besides that, there was nothing.

"As long as you drop your blood onto it, the contract will take effect." The woman said with a smile, "The distance to gaining power, is just that simple."

"What can I gain, and what can I lose?" Julius Reed asked with a smile as well.

He didn’t intend to expose this lie and wanted to see what the woman would say next.

What Julius Reed wanted most now was to understand the purpose of the person who sent the item to Longwu!

And the role of this fake artifact.

If it served no purpose, then counterfeiting it would be meaningless.

And the person who gave it to Longwu, they couldn’t have nothing better to do.

"It cannot give you much, only one thing." The woman pointed at Julius Reed’s chest: "Do you still remember those desires you kept hidden? Greed, lust, and all of humanity’s weaknesses."

"You even know this?" Julius Reed was a little surprised.

This matter was very concealed, no one knew except Julius Reed.

After all, it concerns the crown’s secret!

The crown can be said to be a conspiracy!

A conspiracy by those desires to control this era through an agent.

But how did this woman in front of him know?

This mystery was baffling in Julius Reed’s mind.

"You don’t need to know. I just want to ask you, do you wish to gain this power?" The woman didn’t answer, but instead, her eyes turned to the blank paper held by her hands, "As long as you drip your blood onto it, you will obtain this power."

"I have all human weaknesses?" Julius Reed felt a sense of unease.

Who could know such private matters about him?

Rian Harris?

Only Rian Harris has been by his side, even the memory-laden jade was found by Rian Harris.

Seven Gem Slope?

The crown was given by Seven Gem Slope.

But if there’s a problem with Seven Gem Slope, then the issue becomes huge!

Many things involve Seven Gem Slope!

Most crucially, this crown was given by Seven Gem Slope!

That suggests this is a massive conspiracy!

Julius Reed found it a bit unbelievable.

It shouldn’t be.

To find out who this person is, he could only act according to their plan.

Moreover, Julius Reed knew this was fake.

It couldn’t possibly give him any power.

Could it be that they wanted his blood to rescue someone inside him?

He thought that was a possibility.

After all, these desires were incredibly strong, strong enough to control the world through the crown and achieve everything they wanted.

So, devising a plan for self-rescue isn’t impossible either.

"Alright, as you wish." Julius Reed extended his finger, forced out some blood, and offered it up.

In an instant, within that golden frame, Julius Reed’s blood began to spread.

Eerily, his shadow appeared faintly.

"Congratulations."

The woman in white smiled, then vanished.

As if she never appeared.
