Chapter 868 Negotiation
Admin Wellton was willing to negotiate in order to get the Star Chaos Bead. To be exact, Jin Rou wouldn't be losing out in this deal since he could name his price. What's more, the price was negotiable so everything could be on the table.
Treasures, Ultimate Swords, Artifacts... Name it. Admin Wellton could give it to him. In fact, he even could make the other party rich overnight.
"Hmm, I appreciate your thought but I guess I'll pass on it." Jin Rou smiled and said.
Admin Wellton didn't give up and smiled, "Young Gentleman, what I can give you is more than what you can imagine. You are a Particularity so you must have acquired enemies along the way. How about I give you an Utmost Protection Badge?"
The Utmost Protection Badge was the ultimate protection you could get in the Dark Train. With this, even you are in a despairing situation, you could use this and escape it. The Eye of Possibility couldn't detect it so it was the ultimate treasure to have when traveling the Dark Train.
Pisces was surprised to hear this and said, "Administrator Wellton is even willing to let go of such a badge. You are trying hard."
"That should be the case, no? After all, the Star Chaos Bead is too precious too." Admin Wellton smiled and said.
"Even so, that's not enough." Jin Rou shook his head. What would he do of the badge? He had many ways to escape if there's something he couldn't deal with.
"So what do you want, Young Gentleman?" The admin wouldn't stop until the Star Chaos Bead was in his hands.
"Your life." Jin Rou smirked, "If you can give me your life, I might give this to you. Although you are dead by that time."
Slowly, the smile on the admin's face was fading. He then said, "Let's not take the hard way, Young Gentleman. Negotiations are better than the last resort. We don't want blood spilling everywhere here, right?"
It was a threat. Everyone could sense the admin's killing intent growing further.
"It's a matter if you have the ability to do so, Administrator Wellton." Jin Rou didn't back down. There was a smile on his face as he confronted the admin.
"Then I assume there will be no other way?" Administrator Wellton dropped all honorifics and asked.
"None." Jin Rou was firm of his decision.
The admin took a deep breath and said, "Then don't blame me for being rude."
"Whoosh!" The admin didn't waste time as he dashed towards Pisces without notice. Now, he was holding a silver saber with an ancient aura.
"Clang!" Jin Rou intervened with his lightning sword, "Not so easy."
Pisces was caught off guard and almost died. He backed off away to avoid the eyes of the admin for a time being.
"I see." Administrator Wellton spoke and his saber created a flashing light, "Then I have no choice but to incapacitate you."
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" The two turned into a streak of light as they clashed in the sky. The world turned dark as the clouds became gloomy. Sparks flew around as fluctuations vibrated the area.
It was a sight to behold. A beauty in battle.
So far, Administrator Wellton was yet to create big moves. He was gauging the strength of the opponent before making his grand move. He was a person who wanted perfection in all things, so this was important.
On the other hand, Jin Rou was doing the same. He didn't underestimate his enemy and created the best version of the admin in his imagination. Remember, he was currently fighting a top figure in the Dark Train. There was a reason why Wellton became an Administrator.
"Open!" Admin Wellton decided to use one of his treasures being kept in his palace. It's a small green vine with no exceptional things to notice.
But in Jin Rou's eyes, there was something sinister inside it.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" The small green vine became large as it released thousands of vines going towards Jin Rou in an unimaginable speed.
Jin Rou tried to cut it but discovered it wasn't possible, "The vines were flexible enough to catch this kind of strength?"
Thus, he had no choice but to run and dodge.
"The Secret Amos Vine is a defining treasure of a certain era, so of course it's not simple as what you assume." The admin explained while smiling, "The vine is created by the Sinister so you can imagine how strong is that."
"Secret Amos Vine?!" Pisces was shocked, "How... Getting it should be impossible! That thing is not made to be controlled by living things."
He was right. Secret Amos Vine was a dark and evil treasure of an era in the distant past. The amount of people it consumed to reach this stage was already too many to count. Not to mention, the creator of this thing was someone called Sinister.
"Of course, I have my means, Pisces." The admin said, "Besides, your Star Families are very generous of what they offer in the past. How can I decline such?"
Pisces could understand a bit because of the admin's clues. Nevertheless, it didn't answer how exactly did he get the Secret Amos Vine.
"Boom!" Jin Rou became fed up of the chasing vines and made them explode one by one.
"Oh?" Administrator Wellton raised his brow and said, "Even if you destroy the vines, it will regenerate back quickly. There is no way out for you. Of course, if you give me the Star Chaos Bead, I might think of sparing you a bit."
"No need." Suddenly, Jin Rou appeared in front of the admin and the latter was caught off guard. Jin Rou was about to grab his collar when vines from Secret Amos Vine pulled the admin with a fast one.
"Tsk. Lucky." Jin Rou clicked his tongue and said. The admin was already within his reach but he managed to react to that speed. He's not an Administrator for nothing.
