Chapter 883: Chapter 561: King Meets King

Just like the Tower of Dominion, this place had already been regarded as an extension of Weizemay Manor. Gaven could summon those True Wraiths that were confined here at will, the only thing he needed to pay attention to was balancing the load on the keystone with the number of True Wraiths.

That is to say, Gaven originally had the ability to wield the power of twenty thousand Shadows, but because a portion of the True Wraiths needed to be converted into physical form, he could only use ten thousand.

In plain terms, it was still a contest of Shadow Energy between the two sides, just that it had turned into a more direct form of Ghostly warfare.

The appearance of this unique phenomenon was eighty percent related to the uniqueness of Weizemay Manor and the Shadow Power it possessed, giving it more of an advantage under such circumstances.

Just as Arms had said before, the victor would take all.

Simply seeing a True Wraith, Arms’s face was full of excitement and greed; as a Necromancer, he certainly understood the uniqueness of these Undead creatures—their potential for growth was immense, each was a potential Nightshadow.

But the difficulty of obtaining them was also extraordinarily high. It’s easy to kill a person, but to kill the same person twice, use their Shadow to replace them, and transform it into a True Wraith was difficult due to many uncertainties. After the person’s first death, they must be resurrected, not choosing to head to the Divine Realm of the Gods for reincarnation. If they did choose reincarnation, the Shadow would have to find that reincarnated person, kill them, and obtain their soul, which was as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

For the opponent to have so many True Wraiths, they definitely did not go through the normal process. Instead, they had some sort of secret techniques or special abilities, directly converting them into True Wraiths in one go, not giving them a chance for a second resurrection.

If he could seize this ability during this opportunity and combine it with his own skills in Necromancy, he would no longer need to sneak around in the Material Plane; he could dominate a realm in the Shadow Plane, build his own army of Nightshadows, and create a Nightshadow Kingdom.

But upon sighting the Six-Armed Serpent Demon, his expression suddenly froze. The robustness of this prey far exceeded his imagination. A slight misstep wouldn’t just result in a broken tooth, but he himself might be devoured by the prey.

Gaven had been observing Arms’s reactions all along. Seeing his change in expression, he couldn’t help but ask, "What about Grace? What did you do to her?"

Arms clearly did not know of the Six-Armed Serpent Demon, indicating that Grace hadn’t reported her secret meeting with Gaven to him, thus proving her defection was genuine.

Gaven wasn’t particularly concerned about Grace’s fate; he just wanted to take the opportunity to find out the situation on the front of the Golia Brigade led by Katherine. This was closely related to whether Grace’s defection was true or false.

"Are you talking about this traitor?" Arms pulled out a crystal ball from his Dimensional Bag, inside of which was a lifelike miniature figure in a state of complete stasis - who else could it be but Grace.

Upon seeing this, Gaven involuntarily raised an eyebrow, thoughtfully saying, "Grace truly betrayed you, but you knew from the start, so you deliberately let her pass on the information about the secret passage to me. The aim was to lure my Elite forces from the direction of the secret passage, so the Efanso Underground City is a trap after all. What you didn’t expect was that I would turn your plan against you, sending only a part of my Elite there while the real main attack was from above."

If there’s a good conspiracy not shared with others, it would be meaningless; for Arms, it was just so. After listening to Gaven’s analysis, he couldn’t help but correct him, "Most of your speculation is correct, but you missed one thing. That is, Grace’s betrayal was also intentional. Her biggest weakness is the faint vestige of humanity deep within her soul, unknown even to herself. All I needed to do was tell her that I was prepared to sacrifice all the citizens of Efanso, planning to launch a mass poisoning at Giant Dragon Coast, and she would not wait to leave me and betray me to the opponent, hoping to take the opportunity to eliminate me... Haha, it played right into my hands. It’s just a pity that you turned out to be more cunning than I thought, playing this game of pretense and reality. Still, being able to eliminate some of your Elite isn’t too bad, and in the end, you still fell into the net."

Even while boasting about his own plan, Arms did not forget to take a swipe at Gaven, hinting that the road taken by Katherine’s forces was fraught with far more peril than fortune.

"Let me guess, what kind of trap have you set underground?" Gaven was unaffected, "Since all your Elite are by your side, it means there aren’t many forces below. As for the potency of your death poison, it’s far from as formidable as the legends suggest, or perhaps it has a fatal flaw, making it incapable of widespread transmission akin to a plague. It can only be effective on a few such as this Bone Dragon or these Bone Claws. Otherwise, according to your demonic ways, you would’ve already unleashed an Undead Calamity at Giant Dragon Coast and not still be holed up in one place. So, the most likely scenario is that you’ll collapse the Efanso Underground City, burying them alive! If you had activated your trap before the Mist Barrier was broken, maybe you could’ve inflicted some damage on them. But after that, I’m afraid you’ll end up disappointed."

Katherine is a full-fledged Chosen of Lady Strategy; the abilities I have as an incomplete Chosen, she certainly possesses, and in a complete form.
