Chapter 517: Beast Transformation

While Lei Luo was still thinking about that burly man on the road, the head of the Nakajima family looked at the burly man on the main seat and carefully asked, “Lord Moroes, are you confident in dealing with that James?”

Moroes only looked at the head of the Nakajima family and said in an indifferent tone, “That person’s strength is about the same as mine. Without using his trump card, it’s really hard to say who will win and who will lose.”

Touching the weapon in his hand, the Takeda family head spoke to Moroes with a murderous intent. “Do you want to beat him half to death tonight? It’ll be easier tomorrow.”

The Nakajima family head frowned slightly at the Takeda family head’s words and said with a mocking tone, “Then who are you going to let go? Or do you want to bring the fleet to the city to beat him?”

When the Takeda family head, who was already in a bad mood, heard this, he stood up and roared at the Nakajima family head.

“Then what do you plan to do? If we can’t win first place, how can we show our strength to the general? How can we get close to the node and open up a portion of the node? Also, you should know that if our people don’t win first place, many aristocratic families won’t come close to us. If the general doesn’t have enough pressure, he will soon free up his hands to deal with our two families. If these matters are not resolved, then the entire game will be lost.”

The Nakajima family head’s expression did not change. Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with the Takeda family head, he still did not scold him. Instead, Moroes, who was sitting on a tall chair, said to the two people, “Stop arguing. I still have a potion that the holy son gave me. Perhaps it can save this situation.”

Moroes rummaged through the flesh and blood. It looked disgusting, but the master of the Nakajima family and the master of the Takeda family were used to it. This was a method for the people of the demon world to control their bodies.

Because the demon world’s magic power was mostly chaotic and the composition was complicated, they used the demon world’s magic power to be collectively known as the magic element. The function of the magic element was to change the physique of the warriors and mages of the demon world and their methods of use.

The side effect was to make the people of the demon world more like magical beasts than humans. The chaotic and brutal magic element continued to penetrate into the bone marrow of the people of the demon world as they cultivated.

After a while, Moroes held an extremely ugly blue body in his hand. That body was emitting an unpleasant smell while it was screaming sharply, causing the faces of the Nakajima family head and Takeda family head to instantly turn pale, they fell to the ground and covered their ears, trying their best to avoid hearing that sharp voice.

“This was taken out from the brain of the magical beast, KDOM. It can transform humans into magical beasts. Let the people on the stage use this thing first to exhaust James. That way, I’ll be very confident.”

Moroes paused, then he continued, “If it really doesn’t work, then we can only threaten the Sakakami family on the last day of the martial arts conference, then kill the general, and completely take control of the northern border.”

The Nakajima family head listened to Moroes silently and didn’t express his opinion. The Takeda family head seemed to agree, but he couldn’t stand up, so he had to ask Moroes to put it away.

…

On the way to the martial arts conference, Miyamoto Musashi and Linghua came to find him early this time. After what happened yesterday, Miyamoto Musashi and Linghua wanted Lei Luo to live with them.

However, Lei Luo knew that he still wanted them to attack him. Unfortunately, they were still very cautious and did not act rashly.

Masanori Sakamoto returned very late last night and only met Lei Luo once. He looked very weak and his face was pale. Lei Luo thought that it was about preparing for the ceremony and did not think too much about it.

It was the last day of sword forging and also the penultimate day of the martial arts conference. The streets were filled with patrolling people. Although the general would not go on stage, she would watch from the side. This was also the time for ordinary people to jump through the Dragon Gate.

If the general took a fancy to them, their future would be bright. However, in yesterday’s accident, there were so many people from the two great families. Would the general still dare to choose among these people?

Lei Luo and Miyamoto Musashi were chatting. The main topic was about the devil world. In this aspect, no one could compare to this son-in-law of the Devil World’s master.

Six people had been eliminated the previous day. Only seven people were left. Lei Luo, Miyamoto Musashi, Linghua, Moroes, the youth, as well as a treasure house and a hanger-on of the Nakajima family.

In other words, under Lei Luo’s deliberate arrangements, he might have to fight to the death with three to four people. Only three people would be able to enter the match the next day, so today’s match would be an unlimited number of matches.

Everyone could choose their own opponents. Within the stipulated time, those who won more matches and those who lost fewer matches would be ranked before entering tomorrow’s match.

It wasn’t difficult to see the Nakajima family’s intentions. They wanted to defeat Lei Luo by taking turns to fight, and finally let Moroes give the final blow.

With such a scheme, Lei Luo didn’t know how he had offended the Nakajima family. The way that Moroes looked at him wasn’t quite right.

The three family heads on the high platform had already taken their seats. In a short building not far away, rows of heavy armor were patrolling the area. General Zili was watching the scene on the screen with great interest. He was thinking about Lei Luo’s side and how the aristocratic family would definitely suffer heavy losses.

At that time, he would be able to come out and take control of the situation. Thinking of this, General Zili could not help but continue watching the screen.

“Lei Luo, you better not disappoint me. Otherwise, it won’t be me who will come, but Papafilin,” General Zili muttered to himself.

When the judge on the stage saw that everyone had arrived, he took a deep breath and said to the audience below, “Welcome to the fourth day of the martial arts competition. The strongest person from the northern border will be decided soon. I wish you all good luck.”

After saying this, he hurriedly jumped off the stage. The people here were also very particular about where they stood. The members of the aristocratic families stood together, while Lei Luo, Miyamoto Musashi, and Linghua stood on one side. The young man dressed in the clothes of a wanderer stood on the other side.

After the previous day’s lesson, there were fewer people on the stage, but the people still enthusiastically called out for the contestants they supported. The most popular ones were Miyamoto Musashi and the Treasure House. This was enough to show the depth of their influence in the northern border.

Lei Luo stood at the side in boredom. No one wanted to go on stage and make a move first. This was equivalent to giving others an opportunity to take advantage of. For those who were bound to win the championship, this was the greatest loss.

Very quickly, a person from the aristocratic family walked out. It was the grandmaster who had faced Linghua the previous day. His strength was not bad. He pointed at Lei Luo and said, “Mr. James, thank you for your guidance.”

He was very hesitant in his heart. He knew that he was definitely not a match for Lei Luo. However, he had no choice but to obey the orders of the Nakajima family head.

When he thought of his mother, wife, and children being in the hands of the Nakajima family head, his heart began to harden. Even if he died, he hoped that the Nakajima family head would treat them well.

Thinking of this, looking at Lei Luo who had just taken the stage, he made a move that no one expected.
