CHAPTER 83: CHAPTER 83, KIDNAPPING AND EXTORTION_1

Angelina was busy buffing Jiang Chen.

A giant dragon’s roar suddenly echoed.

Angelina turned her head, her expression changing drastically. Fifteen giant dragons had appeared in her field of vision, flying in from nearby.

Angelina trembled. "Jiang Chen, those... those are from the Dragon Knight Legion! The famous Dragon Knight Legion from Holy City’s College! The entire Legion is composed of Dragon Knights; we’re in trouble now."

Jiang Chen glanced over. They’ve come so quickly.

Jiang Chen said, "You can use a Town-return Scroll now."

"What about you?"

"I want to change things up a bit."

"Stop joking! Let’s both use a Town-return Scroll before they get here."

Jiang Chen reassured her, "Go back. I’ll come find you in a little while. We still have to enter the King’s Crown Copy together later!"

"Then be careful."

Without hesitation, Angelina crushed the Town-return Scroll. After a flash of white light, she disappeared.

Jiang Chen watched the sky with interest. The Dragon Knight Legion? Interesting! A team entirely made up of Dragon Knights. Indeed, they’re a bit powerful.

Jiang Chen stood his ground, waiting for their arrival.

Soon, the fifteen giant dragons circled in the sky, surrounding Jiang Chen, all of them roaring furiously at him.

"It’s him."

Besmo stared coldly at Jiang Chen. "Are you the one who hurt my brother?"

"If no one else did, then yes, that would be me."

Besmo gazed at Jiang Chen. "The fact that you can admit it shows you’ve got some guts. Do you know he’s from the Dragon Knight Legion?"

Jiang Chen calmly responded, "I didn’t know before, but I do now."

"Besmo, this person has black hair. He doesn’t seem to be from our Nordic European Union."

"He must be from the Sakura Alliance, or perhaps the Han Union."

"It’s also possible that he’s from the Dragon Zone Union."

"Besmo, there’s no need for idle talk. Since he’s from another Alliance, just kill him. We don’t have to show any courtesy."

"Besmo, make your move!"

Besmo looked at Jiang Chen. "I’m sorry to tell you that you’re going to die here. I hope you have a Resurrection scroll on you; otherwise, you’ll die for good."

Jiang Chen sighed. "Such is the martial world!"

The fifteen were baffled. What does he mean?

Jiang Chen casually replied, "I hope none of you have Resurrection scrolls either. That way, I won’t have to kill you a second or even a third time. I prefer to do it just once."

"Seeking death!"

At a command from a nearby Dragon Knight, a torrent of flame erupted from his dragon’s maw, rushing towards Jiang Chen like a raging inferno.

After the flames died down, the Dragon Knights looked at the spot where Jiang Chen had been standing.

"Where is he?"

"He must have turned to ash already."

"Did he die that quickly?"

"We rushed here from Holy City’s College for nothing. He was just trash."

"Norris, how could you be injured by such a weakling?"

As the Dragon Knight’s dragon unleashed its flames, Jiang Chen had already used Flash in the Void to teleport away. No one could harm him.

Jiang Chen looked at the Dragon Knights and smiled.

Dragon in the sky!

Three Hundred Sword Auras materialized above Jiang Chen. They swept across the sky like a meteor shower, and he controlled everything within a hundred-meter radius.

A scream pierced the air as the Three Hundred Sword Auras struck simultaneously.

The Dragon Knight beside Norris died instantly, collapsing to the ground along with his giant dragon. The others turned their heads in shock, wondering how Jiang Chen had gotten behind them.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Jiang Chen laughed. "My guess was correct; he really didn’t have a Resurrection scroll."

"Kill him!"

"Damn it! He dared to kill one of us! Die!"

"Dragon Flame! Destroy this guy for me!"

"Ice Flame Attack!"

"Blazing Fire Burn!"

One by one, the Dragon Knights furiously attacked Jiang Chen with flames, frost, storms, and thunder and lightning, targeting the ground where he stood.

Jiang Chen disappeared once again.

The Three Hundred Sword Auras split into groups, swiftly attacking the remaining Dragon Knights and their mounts. Wherever the Sword Auras passed, fourteen giant dragons screamed in agony.

The giant dragons plummeted to the ground one after another. Jiang Chen’s attacks were aimed not at other places, but at their wings—a dragon without wings is just a lizard. Moreover, these Sword Auras also pierced directly into the giant dragons’ hearts.

Besmo’s expression changed drastically.

Jiang Chen observed Besmo. This fellow reacted quickly, actually managing to dodge the Sword Qi Attack.

The other thirteen Dragon Knights stared at their fallen giant dragons. Dozens of Sword Auras now completely surrounded them. At this moment, fear finally gripped them. Who on earth is this guy?

Jiang Chen smiled. "Don’t move, or these Sword Auras will pierce your throats. I know you’re wearing Heavy Armor, but it won’t stop my attacks."

In a single exchange, of the fifteen Dragon Knights who had come, one was dead, thirteen were captured, and only Besmo remained free.

"Kid, who exactly are you? Don’t you know—"

At Jiang Chen’s command, twenty Sword Auras instantly pierced the Dragon Knight who had just spoken. With a flash of white light, the man vanished, leaving the ground littered with equipment that had dropped from his Space.

Jiang Chen said, "He was fortunate; he had a Resurrection scroll on him."

The remaining thirteen were too scared to move, let alone speak. They feared being killed, as not everyone possessed a Resurrection scroll.

Jiang Chen looked at the equipment on the ground. It was a level 40 Silver-grade Suit. After that Dragon Knight died, all his equipment had dropped. A level 40 Silver-grade Suit was quite valuable.

Jiang Chen crouched down and put the equipment into his Space.

Besmo’s brow furrowed deeply. Damn it, who on earth was this person? Why had he never heard of him? How could someone so powerful exist?

Besmo, his face grim, said, "Are you trying to start a war? They are all members of Holy City’s College’s Dragon Knight Legion. If you actually kill them, it will lead to a battle between Alliances, and the Dragon Knight Legion will crush your Dragon Zone Union!"

"Don’t threaten me. I’m afraid of many things, but threats aren’t one of them."

"You’ve won. We’ll leave now."

"Leave?"

Jiang Chen laughed. "Their lives are in my hands now, and you think you can just leave?"

"Then what do you want?"

Jiang Chen glanced at their equipment and smiled. "Take off all your equipment, and I’ll let you leave."

"Or, you can exchange your lives for King’s Crown Robe Equipment."

Besmo’s brow furrowed deeper.

The Dragon Knights held a formidable reputation in the Nordic European Union; they never expected to be threatened like this today.

Besmo hesitated for a moment.

Jiang Chen pondered. Why bother grinding the King’s Crown Copy? It took so much effort for so long just to get two pieces of equipment. Robbery was much more straightforward! With a dozen or so Dragon Knights as hostages, he might even be able to complete the King’s Crown Suit ahead of schedule! This was a genuinely good idea.

Besmo said, "I have a pair of King’s Crown Pants. Let them go, and I’ll give it to you."

Jiang Chen laughed. "You’re thinking too simply. One piece of equipment only frees one person."

Besmo was so furious he could have spat blood. King’s Crown Suit pieces weren’t that easy to come by. Besides, this item wasn’t even his; he’d taken it from someone else. As a Knight, he couldn’t wear it himself, but Archers or Magicians could.

"You’re too greedy!"

"You came to kill me. I’m already being merciful by choosing not to kill you. Don’t tell me you want me to actually go ahead and kill them all? I can see they’re all wearing Silver-grade or higher Sets. That loot would sell for a lot of money."

Besmo remained silent.

"Captain, don’t be afraid! We have Resurrection scrolls! So what if we’re killed? When we revive, we’ll start a war together and strike at the Dragon Zone Union!"

"That’s right! We Dragon Knights aren’t afraid to die!"

"Come on, kill us! Then your Dragon Zone Union better prepare for the wrath of the Dragon Knights!"

Jiang Chen glanced at them and smiled.

Threats?
