Chapter 497: It’s Just a Contract. It Can’t Stop Me, Godfrey!
When the spiritual power of the royal envoy detected the predicament of Joelson and the others, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smug smile.
“Hahahaha, it seems that a little more caution at the critical moment can really give me a little more bargaining chip!”
“Hiss…”
Joelson rubbed his forehead awkwardly, temporarily unable to think of any good ideas.
“My master, don’t worry. If this kind of soul fire frees the resurrected…”
Before Godfrey could finish his words, Joelson grabbed Godfrey’s hand excitedly.
“You bastard, why do you only say half of what you say every time? You’re making me even more troubled. Quick, tell me you have a way to break his contract!”
“That’s right. If it’s the resurrected, I still have a way to break his contract.”
Godfrey nodded and said with an apologetic tone.
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s not waste time and make a move!”
Joelson said excitedly.
The other party was so careful to keep the information confidential, which made Joelson sure that if he could cancel the contract of the black-robed skeleton man, Johann, then the information that Johann would give would be very useful.
“Alright, there’s no time to lose. I’m going to prepare my method!”
Godfrey clasped his hands together, and a ball of golden light burst out of his eyes!
In an instant, a strange wind blew so hard that Joelson almost could not open his eyes.
“Poor revenant, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. After death, you should not take anything that belongs to the time of life. The evil contract on your body is polluting the purity of the revenant!”
“In the name of the previous God of Slaughter, I will grant you a pure death, Purification!”
Boom!
A thunderclap appeared in the sky and a blood-red light enveloped the land. The two soul fires on the land shook violently and, in a short while, the dark blue soul fires soared!
“Death can not be blasphemed!”
Godfrey chanted loudly and, as his voice fell, a blood-red bolt of lightning struck down!
Kacha!
The blood-red bolt of lightning struck two balls of soul fire. The black-robed skeleton man, Johann, and the hunted skeleton man trembled. Black smoke rose from their bodies.
“What?”
The royal envoy’s eyes widened.
“This is impossible! This is impossible!”
The royal envoy shouted angrily. The terrifying sound waves shook the ground, causing rocks to fall and mud to slide!
The royal envoy could not believe what he was sensing. He could not believe that there was someone in this world who could break his death contract!
The death contract was the highest level contract in this world!
No matter how tyrannical the contract between heaven and earth was, it was not as tyrannical as the death contract. This was because the death contract was directly engraved on the soul. No matter what state the contestant was in, or which plane he was in.., even if death came to the Underworld, it was impossible for him to be eradicated!
Even if he died again in the Underworld and transformed into a resurrected corpse, the death contract would still be able to accurately find the contestant and let him continue to fulfill the contract!
“Ridiculous… What kind of bullsh*t logic is this! I don’t believe it!”
The royal envoy was furious. It was as if he had never been this angry since he became stronger.
He had almost forgotten how to act in such an angry manner.
In the long river of time, under his terrifying strength, this was the first time he was this angry!
If the act of removing his death contract was converted to the actions of an ordinary person, it could be imagined that two people had signed a business contract, and after the other party obtained benefits, he tore up the contract between the two parties in front of the other party!
Was this removing his death contract?
No!
This was a slap to the face of this royal envoy!
“I… will not let you guys succeed so easily!”
The royal envoy waved his hand, and the robe with the golden skull tattoo on it was flung away by him. The royal envoy suddenly clapped!
Bang!
Indescribable energy was transmitted along the lines of the contract to Joelson and the others!
“What… What is it?”
Godfrey’s expression changed drastically, as if he was facing an extremely powerful enemy. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead!
“What is it, Godfrey?”
Joelson asked in confusion.
The person who removed the contract was Godfrey. That terrifying, unknown energy was bombarding him along the lines of the contract. Godfrey could feel it abnormally clearly, however, Joelson and Hades, who were offline, did not feel anything.
“Godfrey, if you can’t do it, don’t try to be brave.”
Hades yawned and spat out a dragon breath. He looked at Godfrey with disdain.
Hades did not feel anything. He thought that Godfrey was playing tricks on his father and himself. If there really was a terrifying energy attack, how could he and his father not even notice it?
“No, no, no… I might not be able to hold on… No!”
Godfrey’s expression didn’t relax at all. He stood firmly on his feet and took a horse stance to stabilize his lower body as if he was ready to receive the attack.
“What exactly happened, Godfrey… What?”
Joelson asked in puzzlement, but the next scene made Joelson’s eyes widen.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!”
Godfrey let out a scream and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he was sent flying like a cannonball.
“What… What’s that!”
Hades was shocked. He changed his lazy posture and stood up, staring around vigilantly.
“This is what happens when you touch the contract, Foreigner!”
A deep voice came from all directions.
“Godfrey, are you okay?”
Joelson did not have the mood to find out who was talking. He was more worried about Godfrey’s safety than finding out who was talking.
“Are you okay…”
Joelson helped Godfrey up from the ground.
“Wah!”
Godfrey sat up with an uncomfortable look on his face. He spat out another mouthful of blood.
“Don’t force yourself, slow down!”
Joelson took out a recovery medicine and helped Godfrey up from the ground. He fed him the recovery medicine.
“Ahem… Master… I’m sorry… My master, I’ve embarrassed you…”
After drinking the recovery medicine, Godfrey was much better. Although he was not completely fine, he could still sit up and talk.
“No, you don’t have to blame yourself, Godfrey. Tell me what happened just now.”
While helping Godfrey Breathe, Joelson asked.
“Just now… that attack just now was the contract master’s retaliation! He sensed that we were going to remove the contract, so he sent powerful energy through the line of the contract…”
