All-Professional Master of Darkness - Chapter 399

c399 Breakthrough

“My lord the benefactor, come in.

Hurtado opened the curtain and warmly invited Lan Wu to come in and rest. As soon as the curtain was opened, a strong manly scent rushed towards him, and Lan Wu was almost knocked over.

It was a complex odor mixed with sweat, body odor, and the stench of not bathing for a long time. It was quite in line with the style of a barbarian.

After hesitating for a moment, Lan Wu’s face twitched and he walked in bravely. As soon as he entered, the pile of dirty clothes in the corner of the tent that had not been washed for an unknown period of time came into view. Several pieces of dirty fur in another corner also came into view. Only then did he realize where the complex smell in the tent came from.

Hurtado was obviously used to the complex smell in the tent. When he came in, he enthusiastically gave up his bed, the pile of furs that exuded a weird smell: “My lord, the benefactor, you can sleep here. I’ll do whatever you want. Just make do.”

Lan Wu’s face twitched again. You are willing to give up the best place, but you have to be able to accept it. He quickly declined and said: “No need to bother. I still need to study how to get Lord Rasuk and others to accept my suggestion. I’m afraid I don’t have time to rest.”

“Yes.” Hurtado scratched his bald head, shook his head with regret and sighed: “Actually, personally, I am very eager to accept the new inheritance.” After a slight pause, he looked up at Lan Wu again, his expression He said solemnly: “My lord the benefactor, I hope you can tell me what the world has become like now.”

Lan Wu was silent.

What has the world become now? He doesn’t know either. The current situation is complex. The forces of hell have an absolute advantage. It is unknown whether Paradise was destroyed by the combined forces of Diavolo and Baal. Of course, there is also an archangel who is entangled with Mephisto, and I don’t know if there is a winner. If the archangel is captured alive by Mephisto, it can be said that heaven will be completely ruined.

But none of this matters. The important thing is that there are still no clues about the whereabouts of these legendary heroes such as Bulkatho and the archangel Tyrael.

Human beings are caught between hell and heaven, and their position is very awkward. With the little fighting power that New Tristram currently has left, it will take at least ten years to accumulate enough fighting power to fight against Hell or Heaven. The reason is that there are not many pure humans left.

Until now, the Amazons have been considered one, and apart from that, only the barbarians are the only pure race. Nowadays, the barbarians have gone from one extreme to the other, becoming more stubborn, which has become a problem.

In one word, difficult.

Two words, difficult.

Three words, very difficult.

After a moment of silence, Lan Wu met Hurtado’s expectant gaze, shook his head and said: “I don’t know what the world has become now. I only know that if hell is given more time, human beings will definitely become It’s very difficult.” He paused and then said, “Maybe the only way left for human beings is to become livestock raised in hell.”

Hurtado’s face suddenly became very ugly. For a proud barbarian, becoming a beast raised by demons is nothing short of the greatest shame.

Lan Wu saw Hurtado’s face turned ugly and felt helpless. Although it sounds a bit ugly, it is true. When hell and heaven decide the winner, it will be mankind’s turn. Facing the forces of hell that had just destroyed their ten thousand-year-old enemy, the tiny human race could only withstand the invasion of a few demons during its heyday, let alone the entire hell that had now surged in strength.

“Your Majesty the Divine Benefactor.” Hurtado was silent for a moment, then suddenly his eyes widened and his breathing became heavier: “I hope you will give me a new inheritance.”

Lan Wu was stunned. It’s not like he hasn’t imagined a similar situation. But judging from the meeting just now, the barbarians today are no longer the Harrogas they used to be. The survivors of these barbarians have rallied closely around the barbarian elders such as Qualkek and Rasuk. The whole team worked together to ensure that the barbarians survived in the increasingly complex Arreat Plateau. Therefore, he did not think that he could easily open a gap and convince the barbarian clan to accept the new inheritance.

But now, Hurtado actually asked for a new inheritance… This was something Lan Wu had never thought of.

“Uh… this…” Lan Wu hesitated again.

This is indeed an excellent opportunity to break the game. Hurtado’s surge in strength after accepting a new inheritance is bound to attract more attention. But it’s also a double-edged sword. It is more likely that it will attract the disgust and rejection of Qualkek and other elders. At that time, is it possible that a civil war will be triggered among the barbarians? This is by no means the most appropriate choice.

There is not much time left for mankind.

Do you agree or not?

Lan Wu was very confused. This is a gamble. After winning the general kill, the combat power of human beings skyrocketed. If you lose…then you will really become a sinner of the barbarian clan.

Hurtado couldn’t help but become anxious when he saw Lanwu’s hesitation. He was not willing to become a beast raised by the devil. This is not the fate of a savage. As a barbarian, the only way to die is to die in battle, and any other way to die is the greatest shame.

“Are you sure you want to accept a new inheritance?” Lan Wu looked at Hurtado and said seriously: “Maybe this will cause you to be exiled and abandoned by the barbarian clan. The price…”

Lan Wu did not continue. This was enough. Hurtado was able to become a leader among the younger generation of the barbarian tribe. He was not a one-track mind and could understand what he had not finished. Being exiled and abandoned by the race was also a punishment that the barbarians could not accept.

“Even if you are abandoned by the race, it is better than becoming a livestock raised by the devil.” Hurtado said decisively without any hesitation.

Lan Wu smiled with relief and raised his right index finger. Not long after, a seed containing the new inheritance of the barbarians condensed. He stared into Hurtado’s eyes and said word by word: “This is the new inheritance. I will give you one last chance to choose. Do you want it? Or don’t you want it?”

Hurtado did not think about it. Since Lan Wu condensed the power seed, there was nothing else in his eyes. Before Lan Wu finished speaking, he had already grabbed the seed.

Lan Wu smiled indifferently and moved his index finger slightly. The power seed floated to Hurtado’s eyebrows and sank into his forehead in an instant. Since Hurtado has made his choice, there is no need to think about it.

As soon as the seed entered his forehead, Hurtado’s whole body shook violently, and his eyes widened. He had already felt the mysterious and powerful power in the new inheritance. He immediately closed his eyes and calmly integrated this new inheritance.

Lan Wu looked at Hurtado who was concentrating on integrating the seed, smiled, took out a piece of fur with a fragrant smell, walked to a corner of the tent, spread it out and lay down.

Whether it is a blessing or a curse, let the facts prove it.
