Hero? Are You Worthy?
Chapter 334 - 210

Chapter 334: 210

But now, hearing from Qin Chu that both his older brothers’ Strength had broken through to Level 90, it was a level Luo Meng could not defeat even if he risked his life.

Just as Qin Chu had said, once he himself was defeated by his older brothers, the demons that currently flocked around him would scatter, leaving him with nothing.

He understood the gravity of the situation, his expression more solemn than ever: "Lord Horus, is this true?"

"Of course, deceiving you benefits me in no way," Horus shrugged as he spoke, "Your current Strength is nowhere near enough to contend with those two."

Candice promptly spoke up: "Speaking of which, I also heard from some demon informants that both the Prince and the Second Prince had recently made a breakthrough."

"What should I do then?" Candice’s confirmation made Luo Meng rather anxious.

He lacked the confidence to increase his Strength to Level 90 in a short period of time, which was extremely difficult.

"Actually, it’s not entirely impossible." Horus furrowed his eyebrows, seeming somewhat reluctant as he sighed, "Well, who made me choose you as an investment and partner?"

"This was a secret of mine, I didn’t plan on revealing it, but I feel that, Lord Luo Meng, you are very much to my liking. I am willing to maintain a rather good relationship with you indefinitely, hoping we can become the closest of allies."

Luo Meng’s throat moved violently, his eyes twinkling: "Lord Horus, rest assured, if I do indeed become the Demon King one day, even if I have to level the human world, you will still be my most esteemed companion. Your status will be second only to mine, and millions of demons will bow before you..."

"Whatever you desire, I will provide... wealth, beautiful human women, Enchanting Demons... everything you want can be yours."

Candice scoffed at this, second only to you?

Luo Meng, do you think too highly of yourself? In Candice’s heart, Luo Meng isn’t even fit to carry Lord Horus’s shoes.

You are just an insignificant pawn in Lord Horus’s plan, do you think too highly of yourself?

But the words that came out of Candice’s mouth were completely different: "Lord Horus, the Seventh Prince has already promised so much, aren’t you satisfied? Lord Luo Meng is never stingy in rewarding those under his command; if you desire, it’s not impossible to ask him to award me to you."

Luo Meng kept nodding, as long as Horus could help him rapidly enhance his Strength, what was a mere Candice?

Horus seemed deeply touched, he pondered for a while: "Alright, I believe you will do as you say, Lord Luo Meng."

"I possess a special Power, this Power allows me to extract the Strength of others."

Luo Meng’s pupils suddenly contracted, his gaze somewhat fearful.

He wasn’t too sharp-witted, but his instinct in battle was very strong, and he keenly sensed how terrifying this Power was.

"You needn’t look at me that way; extracting others’ Strength cannot be converted into my own Strength, otherwise, I would have no need to collaborate with you. I could simply keep searching for suitable targets to absorb Strength from, and it wouldn’t take long to become invincible."

Luo Meng’s expression paused slightly, it seemed that was the case.

If the absorbed abilities could indeed transform into his own Strength, then Horus’s Strength would probably be many times more powerful than it currently was.

"However, I can transfer the absorbed Energy to others, and the recipient can directly absorb, refine, and convert this Energy into their own Strength."

This was indeed feasible, but Qin Chu had never used this method to enhance Angelica’s Strength.

It wasn’t that Qin Chu was reluctant, as he had a way to digest this foreign Energy, something Angelica couldn’t do. Forcefully infusing it would do Angelica no good; it might seem like a sudden increase in Strength in the short term but could lead to significant problems in the future.

"Put simply, this damned Power is all about making the bridal clothes for others." Horus muttered annoyingly and irritably.

Luo Meng looked at Horus with a bit of pity, it was normal for Horus to feel annoyed and irritable. Such an amazing and powerful Power, yet unusable for oneself, anyone would be distressed for a while.

But for him, it was absolutely a great thing, and Luo Meng was eager to try it.

His fierce gaze turned to Ronald... unfortunately, this fellow had nearly become a cripple, his body’s Energy already depleted, nothing left to extract.

Then, his gaze shifted to Candice, his pupils blood-red.

But this killing intent didn’t last too long, Candice was too weak.

Even if he drained all of Candice’s Strength, there likely wouldn’t be much growth.

Moreover, Candice was also the intermediary in his and Horus’s dealings, possessing Succubus Bloodline, she could be gifted to Horus to control this man, which was quite excellent; killing Candice outright might ruin their collaboration.

As for Horus, once his value had been thoroughly exploited, he naturally had to be killed... even though they were currently partners, this special Power could potentially allow Horus to create another strong rival at any time, a scenario Luo Meng was unwilling to witness under any circumstances.
