Chapter 480 - 486: Plan B
Chapter 480 - 486: Plan B
The Elf Race is known for their exceptionally high standards of beauty, and the purple-haired elf in front of him is considered a beauty even among them. So from a human aesthetic point of view, her looks are indeed remarkable.
However.
That’s not the main point.
Hang Yu was certain this was the person he was looking for.
Tasia also sensed carefully. Having signed the same soul contract with the Blackthorn Alliance, she could clearly feel the corresponding soul fluctuations emanating from Hang Yu. Such fluctuations, originating from a soul contract, cannot be hidden or faked.
Hang Yu took out the mysterious copper whistle: "This is the token of my joining the Blackthorn Alliance, recommended by Magical Potion Master Samuel."
There’s no need to doubt.
First, Hang Yu was introduced by Nazg, currently the highest-ranking figure in the Blackthorn Alliance. Nazg could not possibly betray the alliance since he is practically its most powerful and influential member.
Second, there is indeed a soul contract on Hang Yu, which means he is undoubtedly a member of the Blackthorn Alliance.
Third, Hang Yu holds the mysterious copper whistle of Magical Potion Master Samuel, who is a friend of Tasia’s, and she knows Samuel wouldn’t recommend someone to join the organization without reason.
Tasia showed a look of gratitude: "Over the past few years, I’ve been imprisoned here, forced to work for that damned Mad Dragon King. I never thought you would be able to get through the heavily guarded Mist Dragon City to come here."
"The specifics are complicated, and there’s no time," Hang Yu drew out the Abyssal Slaughterer and remarked, "I’ll start by cutting the mystical chains binding Master Tasia. May you break free and escape from here!"
"Wait!"
Hang Yu frowned and said, "We may have infiltrated Mist Dragon City, but it’s impossible not to leave any traces. Once the experts therein detect any anomaly, escaping will become difficult, so we can’t afford further delay."
"This chain is connected to a sensing array. If damaged, all the guards in this area will arrive immediately, and the Mad Dragon King and his minions will surely not stand idly by," Tasia said. "How many of you are there? Is there an extraction plan outside?"
This complicated?
Hang Yu suddenly felt embarrassed.
Where are the reinforcements? There isn’t any backup!
This time, he came purely on a solo mission!
Tasia, a person with fifty years of life experience, sighed as her experiences surpassed that of any ordinary native of the Spirit Realm: "On your own, even with some space magic, there’s no chance of leading me out of here, and there’s a high probability of getting yourself caught. You don’t understand the Mad Dragon King’s control over Mist Dragon City."
Disappointment!
Locked away for four or five years!
Thought a savior had come.
Turns out it was an inexperienced youth.
Came to rescue without fully understanding the Mad Dragon King’s secrets?
In these circumstances, how could it succeed? Is the Mad Dragon King’s several hundred to nearly thousand years of life all for nothing!
Once the rescue fails.
Or if prematurely exposed.
Hang Yu himself will be in grave danger!
The Mad Dragon King has ways to stop him from escaping, especially since in the highly guarded, expert-filled Mist Dragon City, surviving is nearly impossible with Hang Yu’s current strength!
"Never mind, you should leave, don’t take any more risks," Tasia said. "The alliance has been severely weakened continuously, your strength and skills are significant, so instead of sacrificing yourself meaninglessly here, you’d better assist Nazg with all your might in uniting other members to resist the Mad Dragon King."
Leave?
What a joke!
Did I come all this way for nothing?
Plan A hasn’t even started and it’s already abandoned, so let’s proceed with Plan B then!
In some sense, this plan is more beneficial for Hang Yu.
Plan A was to lead Tasia away, and in return for saving her, she would repair his Sand Emperor Cloak, a purple equipment piece, but if Plan B could be carried out, the gains would be far more than just a piece of purple equipment.
The Elven Sister herself discarded the former.
Presenting the latter at this moment seems only natural and logical.
Hang Yu: "Now I have a foolproof plan that can take Master Tasia away, but executing this plan will demand a great price from Master Tasia."
Tasia said, "You underestimate me. If it truly means escaping imprisonment and rejoining the resistance against the Mad Dragon King, I’m willing to pay any heavy price. What’s your idea?"
"Use the Favored Contract!"
Hang Yu briefly explained the operation method.
It’s not complicated: simply sign a Favored Contract with Tasia.
In this way, Hang Yu can directly bring Tasia back to the real world, thus evading all pursuit.
This process won’t take much time, and no matter how quick the Mad Dragon King is, he can’t possibly come to stop it in such a short time.
But obviously.
Once the Favored Contract is signed.
Tasia would become Hang Yu’s vassal.
Just like Bai, Golden Hammer, and Red Flame among others.
Tasia could indeed regain her freedom, but she would face new constraints, depending on her willingness to accept them.
"So you’re from the legendary Descent Race!" Tasia realized Hang Yu’s identity now. "No wonder I’ve never heard of or seen a race like yours."
She thought over it several times.
Eventually nodded and said, "Alright, as long as my personal will remains independent, and I’m not forced to do anything against my will, I’m willing to accept these terms... but the Favored Contract is a very rare item. Even if my strength is reduced to the extreme, I must at least use a Level 15 Green Upper Contract."
The Favored Contract is a relatively rare type of contract.
However, Hang Yu had a stockpile, some bought regularly from the Mysterious Shop for backup, and others acquired from various channels in the real world.
The Favored Contract is very useful.
Of course, he accumulated as much as possible.
A Blue Contract is definitely out of reach now.
The only Blue Contract he had was used last time during the contract with Red Flame.
But just one Green Quality isn’t too difficult for Hang Yu.
Anticipating situations like this, Hang Yu had prepared the contract in advance.
What he didn’t expect was that Tasia had no resistance to the proposal. She agreed in less than a minute, which really surprised Hang Yu.
The Favored Contract cannot be forced upon.
Both parties must accept it from the heart.
Only then can the contract succeed.
If one party bears strong resistance to the contractual relationship, or harbors hostility or hatred towards the other party, it will affect the contract’s establishment and end up wasting a contract.
He took out the contract.
The two completed a brief contract ceremony.
From this moment on, Master of Repair Tasia became a new favored of Hang Yu. She would be treated similarly to Bai, but more leniently due to special circumstances.
Hang Yu would not order or force her to do anything.
But now that Tasia has signed this contract.
She is destined to be bound by Hang Yu.
Her level cannot exceed Hang Yu’s, and it’s impossible to betray him. She cannot subjectively do anything that threatens Hang Yu’s life. No matter how much freedom Hang Yu grants her, their relationship is now intertwined unless one of them dies; it cannot be undone.
"Are you ready?"
"I’m ready!"
Hang Yu raised the Abyssal Slaughterer, striking the chain hard to shatter the mystical chains binding Tasia.
Almost at the moment Tasia regained freedom.
The sensing array issued an alarm.
"This place will soon be surrounded!" Hang Yu placed his hand on Tasia’s shoulder: "Let’s go!"
A brief one or two minutes standing still.
Hang Yu along with Tasia and Bai vanished simultaneously.
Ten minutes later, a large group of Dragonmen and soldiers burst through the door, but all they saw was an empty room.
"Where’s Tasia?"
"Damn it, where did she go!"
"Space skills, it must be space skills!"
"Quick, report to His Majesty, and initiate emergency state, dispatch search teams, and comb through Mist Dragon City. They haven’t gotten far!"
The Dragonmen’s first thought after realizing Tasia had escaped was to go out and search, as this was a perfectly normal reaction.
But little did they know.
Hang Yu hadn’t used space movement.
He used world travel, having already left the Earth Dragon Realm.
This move by Hang Yu seemed to be a win-win situation, both rescuing Tasia and gaining a master-level producer for his faction.
However.
He actually took a huge risk with this.
If the Dragonmen knew it was a human breaking her out, if they understood human capabilities enough, they could have set up masters to ambush and catch him. Hang Yu would return anyway.
Once Hang Yu reenters this world.
They could capture him instantly.
But so far, the Dragonmen haven’t figured out what happened.
