Just call me Thor

Chapter 408: I will personally challenge Joseph



Listening to Shadow One, Shadow Three also turned his gaze towards Shadow Two. He gripped his bone club and agreed, "He could be."

Bad Man and Bad Woman trembled in fear, clinging to each other. If Shadow Three and Shadow One were determined to kill them, they would be toast.

"Cut it out!" Mike scolded. "Shadow Two has made many contributions to the Guardian Shadow, he's a valuable asset!"

Just as Shadow Two breathed a sigh of relief, Thor's next sentence sent the two shadows clinging to each other again.

"We can't do such a thing to Shadow Two unless absolutely necessary."

Shadow Two: ???

So, if it was absolutely necessary, you could just kill me and turn me into an equipment spirit? Fuck being Shadow Two then!

Mike decided to drop the subject of Shadow Two for now.

He created several [Thunderclap Fate] skill books and asked Shadow Four to distribute them to trustworthy individuals to handle the equipment enchantments. If Mike had to personally enchant every single piece of equipment, he'd be dead tired.

After handing over the skill books and wolf phantoms, Mike instructed, "Before the enchantment, both parties must establish a contract. The wolf phantom and the weapon's owner are not master and servant, but partners, understand?"

Shadow Four nodded, understanding Mike's intention.

Mike added, "Also, the enchantment is free, and the phantom comes free. For phantoms obtained from the [Guardian Shadow]... let the Mystic Market be the witness, and conduct the transaction at market price. This money is not a purchase price, but a deposit. If the phantom is returned later, the deposit will be fully refunded."

Shadow Four hesitated for a moment and reminded, "If it's a deposit, we need to establish a publicly supervised account, with the flow of funds strictly monitored and a security deposit..."

Deposits and payments were two completely different concepts. Mike didn't intend to sell the phantoms, so the fee charged was a deposit. This would make things much more complicated.

Mike interrupted Shadow Four and made the decision, "Follow the existing rules, do what needs to be done."

From Mike's experience dealing with various parties, the human race placed great importance on "following the rules" internally.

When it was time to follow the rules, they had to follow the rules.

Don't try to exploit loopholes, or you would definitely be punished.

Of course, these were internal rules.

For the Tower of Truth and the demon race, the human race always tried their best to exploit loopholes and maximize their benefits.

After settling this matter, Mike began to consider the candidates for the Lord tier battle. "Shadow Four, after the Chief tier tournament is over, call Violet back."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Mike made his decision, "Violet will fight Shadow One, and you will fight Shadow Three."

Shadow One and Shadow Three together were practically invincible in the Lord tier.

As for the two Mike sent out, although Violet wasn't very bright, she was a fierce fighter.

Since whoever he sent would lose anyway, he might as well let Violet, the one with the highest talent, give it a try.

The other one could only be Shadow Four.

"Who has the guts to challenge Maxen?"

Mike looked around the room, his eyes full of expectation.

"Any volunteers? Step right up!"

In the end, a few Shadows huddled together and, through "friendly" negotiation, decided to let Shadow Ten fight.

Looking at Shadow Ten, who was beaten black and blue, Mike didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Forget it, call Shadow Ninety-Nine, let her experience the might of the Wolf Alpha." It was decided!

The candidates for the four tournament matches were decided, leaving one spot left.

All the Shadows looked at Thor in unison, their eyes filled with bravery, "Fourth Bro, please allow me to fight Joseph to the death!"

"If I can't defeat Joseph, I'll perform a handstand shit for everyone!"

"Fourth Bro..."

Clearly, Joseph was very popular at this moment.

"Silence!"

"As for Joseph..."

Mike pondered, "Although I'm only over level 300 now, I've decided, I will personally challenge Joseph!"

...

After finalizing the candidates, Mike had one last task to prepare.

To fight Joseph, Mike needed to solve one problem: how to survive.

Firstly, Mike didn't want to waste Fate's Reversal on Joseph.

He was about to go to the Abyssal Plane, and Fate's Reversal was a crucial life-saving

measure.

Secondly, Mike had fought Lord tier enemies many times before, but it was always under the premise of ensuring his own safety.

Take the Suture Abyssal Plane for example, Mike had been hiding under Shadow Ten's

protection, dealing damage like crazy.

Thanks to his lightning abilities, Mike's damage output was already very strong.

The only thing he lacked was survivability.

And this was where Dracula came in!

Mike had paid the exorbitant price of 1000 drops of blood essence to hire Dracula, just to get a meat shield he could use in the Lord tier!

After dealing with the internal affairs of the Guardian Shadow, Mike returned to his private

space.

Fool hadn't finished forging the equipment yet, clearly, she was a master procrastinator.

She couldn't finish her work until the last minute.

This gave Mike the opportunity to discuss battle strategies with Dracula in depth.

Dracula was also very cooperative.

After all, he had accepted the blood essence Thor had given him. If he didn't fulfill his duties,

his fate would be terrible!

Dracula explained, "My offensive methods are..."

"We'll talk about that later."

Mike interrupted, "Offense isn't important, I'm more concerned about your life-saving

methods, or rather, methods to save my life."

Dracula thought for a moment and said again, "I can defend against ranged attacks below level 1000, mainly arrows, hidden weapons, etc. You've seen it before on the 30th floor..."

On the 30th floor, Dracula had casually blocked the Nature Elf Envoy's devastating arrow, leaving a deep impression on Mike.

It was for this reason that Mike was willing to pay a high price to hire Dracula as a bodyguard.

...

While Mike was communicating with Dracula, Foreskin was unusually busy in the Trade

Secret Realm.

"Excuse me, how's the weapon you're forging for me coming along?"

Joseph arrived excitedly, in high spirits.

Foreskin nodded, "It's done, a total of 13,000 Lord merits, card or cash?"

Joseph waved his hand grandly, "Installments!"

He couldn't afford it at all.

Joseph had practically emptied his coffers for this equipment, even taking out a huge loan!

All for the sake of enhancing his strength and proving the worth of a nine-star Lord!

After completing the installment procedures, Joseph took the storage ring, full of confidence, "With this weapon, I'll definitely open their eyes at this tournament!"

With that, the confident Joseph took out a longbow from the storage ring. Lightly pulling the bowstring, listening to the sound, Joseph smiled calmly, "With this weapon, I only need one arrow to defeat a nine-star Lord!"
