Chapter 1075: Chapter 1077: Egger Appears
Most monsters, when they come to the real world, harbor some malicious intent.
However, a small number of monsters are forced into this world, often against their will.
They don’t want to clash with humans, but the differences in race and power often lead to many tragedies.
Many monsters just want to find a place without humans, where they don’t have to live in fear of being hunted by the Hunter Association.
Wen Wen doesn’t exactly pity these monsters, as they’re somewhat considered enemies of humanity, but he doesn’t harbor much hatred either because some humans are even more detestable than these monsters.
He wouldn’t deliberately ruin their lives, but if completing a task involves them, Wen Wen wouldn’t feel guilty.
Halfway through his journey, Wen Wen already knew where his destination was.
In the center of the city, there’s a gigantic stone castle towering hundreds of meters high, carved from a single piece of rock without any visible seams.
The monsters living out their modest lives in the city are just the outer members of Yuriano, merely using this place to hide from humans.
But those living in the heart of the giant castle are the core members of Yuriano.
Perhaps Egger, whom Wen Wen is searching for, is in this city.
At the top floor of the Giant Stone Tower, a thin young man stood by the window, gazing out over the entire city, the corners of his mouth curled to one side, smiling happily, making his mouth appear crooked.
He once had many titles: ‘Dragon King’, ‘Asura’, ‘Medicine King’, ‘Crooked Mouth War God’…
Considered one of the strongest superpower users beneath the Catastrophe Level, he didn’t join any secret organizations, nor did he join the Hunter Association, continuing his legend as a lone superpower user across the Federation.
His favorite pastime was flirting with wealthy heiresses and then becoming their live-in son-in-law.
After marrying into their families, he’d lower his profile, allowing the in-laws to bully him. Once it reached a certain point, he’d reveal his true identity and retaliate. He caused societal deaths for so many mothers-in-law, far more than the soldiers who once subdued Pengwan Island.
Each time, he displayed different abilities. When being the son-in-law of a hospital director, his revealed identity was that of the ‘Medicine King’, master of legendary medical techniques. As the son-in-law of a military family, upon revealing himself, he could command ten thousand troops as the ‘Crooked Mouth War God’…
Many were curious how he reached the pinnacle in various fields, but this secret was known only to him.
Having played too many roles, he had long forced himself to forget his real name, referring to himself as ‘Crooked Dragon’.
Beside him floated a bronze artifact engraved with complex patterns, resembling an ancient key.
This was Yuriano’s ‘Wedge’, through which monsters must pass to enter Yuriano; without it, no matter how powerful they were, they’d be unable to locate Yuriano.
Entering Yuriano via the Wedge places them entirely under his control, a single thought from him could expel them from Yuriano.
He is undoubtedly the king here!
Thus, Crooked Dragon was no longer satisfied with wandering as a son-in-law, but instead, he started to concoct a grand plan in his mind: to use the magical properties of Yuriano to attract all superpower users and monsters who were drifting outside major superpower organizations.
He wanted to fill this stone city with superpower users and monsters, creating an independent organization even the Hunter Association couldn’t handle!
One of his conditions for agreeing to shelter Egger was to have Egger become an honorary elder of Yuriano, providing military support in critical moments.
Regarding Yuriano, Crooked Dragon still had much to learn, but he knew the Wedge he held was the key to Yuriano’s secrets.
Crooked Dragon looked at a small square in front of the Giant Stone Tower, where a massive Bronze Door stood, containing Yuriano’s ultimate secret.
He had entered twice, but each time failed to glimpse the entirety of Yuriano.
“There’s no doubt Yuriano is a Catastrophe-level containment item, and with the items inside that Bronze Door, its value far exceeds Catastrophe-level!” Check latest chapters at novel⁂fire.net
“Once I can master Yuriano’s secrets, I’ll become the king of the world!”
Adjusting his luxurious robe, Crooked Dragon headed toward the square in front of the Giant Stone Tower, planning to have Egger sign a contract to become an honorary elder of Yuriano in front of all Yuriano’s key members.
This would give Yuriano its first Catastrophe-Level expert!
Wen Wen and Qiao Feiya arrived nonchalantly at the square in front of the Giant Stone Tower, with the guards outside not stopping the two of them.
Because they believed anyone appearing here must be one of them, and the aura of Wen Wen and his companion was strong, qualifying them to enter the venue.
Seeing the entire square filled with monsters and wanted criminals, Wen Wen was slightly shocked.
Yuriano withstood pressure from the Hunter Association, gaining them enormous fame, and many monsters and wanted criminals came because of it.
Among these people in the square, there were several True-order Masters, with an astonishing number of Upper and Middle Sequence, enough power to support a new secret organization.
If these monsters united, the Hunter Association would have another formidable foe to contend with in the future.
Zhu Pengpei, sharp-eyed, saw the two and laughed aloud, approaching Wen Wen and patting him warmly on the shoulder.
“Brother, I always knew you were one of us. This time you saved my life, just ask if you ever need anything from me, old Zhu.”
When Wen Wen saved him, Zhu Pengpei had doubts, but seeing Wen Wen here confirmed him as one of their own.
“No, no, we are all family. It’s only right to help out,” Wen Wen replied.
Then, he leaned in with a sly look and asked Zhu Pengpei, “By the way, Brother Pig, I saw you turn people into paper figures to carry them around. What kind of skill is that?”
“I’ve got my eye on a few young ladies, and if I could bring them along with me, ready anytime, that would be marvelous.”
“Especially a woman with an ahoge; I’ve been annoyed with her for a while now.”
Zhu Pengpei laughed heartily, “That’s just a minor trick, I guarantee you’ll learn it in no time.”
They quickly delved into unscrupulous and sinister topics, leaving Qiao Feiya stunned, wondering if the woman with an ahoge referred to her.
How does he know so many twisted things, could it be he’s truly such a person…
As Qiao Feiya was lost in thought, her expression suddenly turned serious as she and Wen Wen simultaneously turned to look in one direction.
From the side, a hunched man draped in a robe slowly approached, with the surrounding monsters parting to give way.
The aura from this man was completely unabashed; he was Catastrophe-Level!
And Wen Wen instantly recognized this figure as Egger, the Corrupt Blood wielder of the Profane Blood!
