Chapter 1184 This Can't Scare Me
"It seems like I've won this battle. Marvel, your Black Nether Tripod still needs to be improved further,"
Ricky said with a smile, at the same time, withdrawing his power.
There was no smile on Marvel's face anymore. In fact, she was now fuming silently, as she eyed him
with contempt and a little curiosity.
"Marvel, step back. We have lost this battle," said Kirk. His face looked sullen and unsure, as Ricky's
strength was beyond their expectations. He had a bad feeling about this.
Meanwhile, Marvel looked incredibly unwilling, but she had no choice but to back down since Kirk had
ordered her to do so already.
"Fortunately, I have won this round. Next, it's your turn to compete," Ricky said to Winifred using his
internal power, as he landed on the ground not far away from her.
"Your victory is just as we have expected. It all depends on me now, but don't worry. I won't let you
guys down!" Winifred confidently replied before stepping forward.
Then came the battle between Winifred and the last woman. It was not until then that Ricky realized
Winifred was actually more powerful than Fitch. It seemed like she was not as simple as he had initially
thought.
Although the fighting was a little fierce, Winifred still won the battle.
In this way, Ricky and his companions won two out of the three matches, which meant that they had
won the right to the visible swamps.
Kirk and his companions were all scowling now, looking even more sullen than Flint had been earlier.
"Kirk, I hope you will keep your promise. We have won two rounds out of three. This visible swamp
belongs to us," Edie said with a triumphant smile.
"As members of the Three-legged Nether Crow tribe, our promise naturally counts, but the battle just
now only decides that we will not intervene in the visible swamp here," Kirk replied with a sneer, which
elicited a puzzled look from Edie and his companions.
It seemed like Kirk was implying something, but they were not sure what he really meant.
Edie scowled at Kirk sternly, believing that he was playing a trick on them.
"What are you saying, Kirk?" he asked coldly.
"It's very simple. From now on, I'll personally try to capture this visible swamp, not for my friends, but
for others." A devilish smirk flashed on Kirk's face.
"Humph, if you don't want to give up, you can tell us directly. There is no need to make such an
excuse," Edie sneered in reply.
"To tell you the truth, this is actually the reason why I have to capture this visible swamp," admitted
Kirk, his face looking sincere all of a sudden.
Then he turned his palm, and a ball of ruling power appeared over it.
"That power... It's—"
Edie and Winifred blurted out at the same time, as a shocked expression took over their faces. At the
same time, a blurry shadow appeared on the ball of ruling power.
The shadow said, "My friends, please do me this for me as a favor. Do not compete with me for the
visible swamp, and I will return this favor tenfold."
Once the voice faded into silence, Kirk put away the ruling power ball again. "Edie, now you know who
I work for and why I need to collect the marsh mud," he said confidently.
It seemed that Kirk already knew Edie would give up. Perhaps, it was obvious from his grim
expression. "Winifred, it looks like this man is not to be trifled with. What can you tell me about him?"
asked Ricky with his internal power.
"Sure," replied Winifred at once. Then, she started explaining. "The endless mountain is divided into
four regions, which corresponds to the four vast terrains—the Eastern Land, Western Land, Southern
Land, and Northern Land.
The region we are in right now is located in the Eastern Land of the endless mountain.
Perhaps, a lot of geniuses are emerging because the era of the heaven and earth battle is almost at
hand. Thus, there is an ace genius in each of the four regions of the endless mountain."
"An ace genius?" Ricky said in a low voice. "So, the one who Kirk works for must be an ace genius!"
"Yes, his name is Lundy. He is only around thirty years old, but he is already a two-star lower spiritual
emperor. Like you, he is indeed an ace genius," revealed Winifred.
"To top that off, he is also the young master of the most powerful force in our region. He is from the Red Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Potentate Roc tribe! He is even more famous than his brother."
"Red Potentate Roc!" Ricky repeated in acknowledgment.
"Dragon Intent Grass, if I remember correctly, the Roc tribe is basically the natural enemies of the
Dragon tribe," Ricky then asked the Dragon Intent Grass in his mind.
"Actually, it's a bit exaggerated to call them natural enemies since the Great Dragons own the top blood
power. Thus, the Great Dragons do not have a natural enemy. However, the blood power of the Roc
tribe and some Omnipotent Skills that have been evolved from their blood power can indeed restrain
the Dragon tribe to a certain extent," the Dragon Intent Grass explained.
"In addition, the creatures of the Roc tribe like to eat the flesh and blood of the creatures from the
Dragon tribe, and the creatures of the Dragon tribe also like to eat the flesh and blood of the creatures
from the Rod tribe. So these two kinds of creatures have always been fighting with each other.
Perhaps, it is true that things in nature mutually reinforce and neutralize each other," Ricky remarked.
"Yes, the blood power of the Red Potentate Roc comes from the divine beast—the Golden Roc,"
Winifred revealed on the other hand.
"Lundy has great talent and a strong background. He can only be described as extremely arrogant and
overbearing!
As you can see, every talent who relies on him will be given a ball of ruling power by him, which
contains his consciousness and will give a warning to others. If anyone refuses to obey his words, he
will be regarded as going against him, and he will definitely cause trouble for them afterward.
As far as I know, every talent who has gone against Lundy has either died or been disabled. It is even
more gruesome and abhorrent if they are not geniuses at the Sage Level.
I guess we have no choice but to retreat today."
There was a trace of helplessness in her voice.
"Lundy is too overbearing. This is too much!" Edie exclaimed, obviously unwilling to submit to Kirk's
wishes.
"You know that he is always overbearing," Kirk responded indifferently. "Anyway, it's time for you to give
me an answer."
Edie could not help but remark disdainfully, "Humph! I didn't expect you to hide under someone else's
skirt."
He had initially admired and respected Kirk because of his strength, but now he could feel nothing for
him but disdain.
"Ha-ha! Don't put it that way. Every creature born in this world has a clear price. You don't know your
price yet, but I know you will sell your loyalty given the right opportunity. You simply haven't found the
right buyer yet." Kirk laughed.
"Because of Lundy's talent, courage, and luck, he is bound to become one of the most powerful men in
the world. That is why I gave him my loyalty. And I am sure that I did the right thing."
"Ha-ha, what a bunch of rubbish! You are full of hot air, aren't you?" Ricky chided him. "You use such
sweet words, pity that they are wasted on you!"
"What did you say?" Kirk said coldly on hearing Ricky's words.
"Don't you understand? Let me translate it for you," Ricky sneered. "What I meant to say was, no
matter what bullshit Lundy says, he will not frighten me. And my loyalty and dignity are priceless. He
can't afford it.
If you understand my words, you should leave now. Otherwise, I will end your worthless life."
"You are looking for death!" Kirk roared coldly. Flames of rage blazed in his eyes, and his hands were
already preparing to launch attacks.
At this time, Flint, who was standing a few feet from them, was the only one who looked excited. He
was overjoyed that Ricky was going against Kirk and Lundy.
'You're asking for death! You'll regret it!' Flint thought to himself coldly.
