Chapter 3356 - Untitled

"Speaking of which—"

Medusa went on and on, telling him the secrets of the demon world, as if she had just remembered the purpose of Black Jack's visit. "Why did you come to the demon world again, distinguished guest?"

"I'm here for you, too."

Black Jack did not keep anything to himself. He replied straightforwardly, "We discovered that Lord Cooper was cooperating with some evil sorcerers in the world of brightness and studying the mysteries of ancient black magic. A great scheme must be brewing. Therefore, we went deep into the demon world and prepared to stop Lord Cooper."

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Does that mean that the Medusa Clan has the opportunity to fight side by side with the honorable guest again?"

The Medusa rolled her eyes and suddenly said, "It's possible that you can help our queen find the 'crimson palace' and become the new Empress of Crimson!

Hearing that, many members of the Harem all sniffed.

Hera sneered in disdain. "Can't you see that we are not devils? Although the human beings of the federation and the Blood Demon Sector have not fought for thousands of years, the minor bloody conflicts have never died down. We are enemies, not friends. Give me a reason. Why should we help your Queen Medusa advance into the Crimson Queen?"

"Because it is the least bad choice.

Witch Medusa replied unhurriedly, "You should know that the Medusa Clan is second only to the Turing Clan in the Blood Demon Sector and does not have much ambition. Our racial talent is healing and modification, not killing and destruction. The Queen Medusa of today has a deep friendship with you, too. You know very well that she is not an ambitious person who wants to see the Emerald Continent shed blood.

"Even if our race occupies the 'Crimson Palace', we will only end the thousand-year chaos of the Blood Demon Sector and make a long-lasting peace with the human world with the help of our distinguished guest.

"However, if the 'crimson palace' falls into someone else's hands, that might not be the case, especially in the hands of a ferocious, bloodthirsty demon king such as General Cooper. Since General Cooper could not carry on the will of the Crimson Queen himself, he could always push out a female puppet to control the power of the crimson palace in his place. By then, the world of brightness would be faced with a new catastrophe. Neither the Emerald Continent nor the Dragon Scale Island would be able to escape the fate of suffering.

"Hehe…"

Hera was not convinced. "We can go back to the Glorious Mortal Realm right now and inform all the kingdoms on the Emerald Continent, the Magic Towers, the Glorious Vatican, and the Dragon Scale Island to form an alliance again like we did thousands of years ago to resist the rise of the Blood Demon Sector!"

"Firstly, are you sure that all the kingdoms and magical towers, together with the federation and the Dragon Scale Island, can resist the power of the Crimson Queen?

"Secondly, without any proof, how did you convince so many kings, high-level mages, and deacons of the Vatican to believe your warnings? They were not absurd jokes or groundless legends, but facts that were about to happen.

"Thirdly, over the past thousands of years, the Jadeite Continent has been at war. Countless kingdoms have risen and fallen. There are also internal strife and undercurrents between the Mage Union and the Radiance Church. Are they really going to be as united and selfless as they were in the 'Battle of the Demonic Tribulation'? I'm afraid that they are just loose sand and cannot even organize an alliance.

"Many spies of the human beings of the Blood Demon Sector are hiding in the Blood Demon Sector, too. Chances are that they have already sent the intelligence about the Crimson Queen back to the Emerald Continent. But we are not worried at all. The rebirth of the Crimson Queen is something that cannot be changed or stopped. The only thing that we can interfere with is who will be crowned as the new ruler of the demon world!

Black Jack pondered for a moment and said solemnly, "This is very important. We must think about it carefully."

The two Medusa Witches looked at each other and bowed politely. They took a few steps back and allowed Black Jack to discuss with his harem.

"Jack, you wouldn't agree to such an absurd request, would you?"

Hela said, "Helping a queen of the demon world to become the legendary queen is a betrayal of the human world!"

She seemed to summon her courage and bit her cheek before she uttered the word 'traitor'.

"Of course, I wouldn't agree to the Medusa Clan's request so easily, but their analysis is undeniable.

Black Jack smiled bitterly. "Judging from the overwhelming army of the Hell Destroyer, we don't have enough time at all. Chances are that, as soon as we returned to the Jadeite Continent and before we had the chance to run to a few kingdoms or magical towers, Lord Cooper seized the crimson palace and absorbed the magical power that had been sealed for thousands of years.

"Besides, I'm just a bounty hunter. Although I'm quite famous in the circle of hunters and mercenaries, the kings, the ninth-circle mages, and the deacons of the Holy See are too high and mighty to believe my words easily.

"The only solution is to follow Queen Medusa to the crimson palace and find a way to influence the balance!

Hera wanted to say something else.

But Black Jack raised his hand and interrupted her.

Black waves as intense as fire burst out of Black Jack's eyes again and spread out, touching the brains of all the women, including the two Medusa Witches.

"Ladies, believe me. I know what I'm doing."

Black Jack smiled confidently. His bright smile was like the warm sunlight, making everybody trust him more than ever. "No matter how many sacrifices we make, we must find the 'crimson palace'. It is the only way to save the world of mortals!"

"Yes. We must find… the crimson palace."

In the blink of an eye, there was confusion in the eyes of the dragoness. Her expression was no longer as wise as a moment ago. She mumbled, "This is the only way to save the glorious world."

All the girls repeated after her, as if they were reciting scriptures. "No matter how many sacrifices we make, we must help Black Jack find the crimson palace. It is the only way to save the glorious world!"

They had no more objections.

Their eyes were as firm as iron, as if they would be smashed into pieces by Black Jack the very next second.

But Theresa gritted her teeth again.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was not right.

Why did the two Medusa Witches tell him everything, including the big secrets of the demon world, and even warmly invite him to help Queen Medusa?

Were they not scared that Black Jack was a spy or an assassin sent by the Glorious Vatican?

Besides, there were many ways to save the world of brightness. Finding the crimson palace with the demons was the most outrageous, risky, and unreasonable one.

How could the wise Hela and so many other girls agree unanimously?

Theresa suddenly felt that Black Jack seemed to boast a terrifying ability that could automatically reduce the intelligence of the opposite sex near him and turn all the girls into idiots and fangirls.

The question that had been lingering in his mind popped up again.

What if none of this was a coincidence?

What if Black Jack had known of Lord Cooper's scheme and the existence of the 'crimson palace' from the very beginning? What if he had come for the 'Crimson Queen'?

Theresa could not help but shudder.

When she raised her head, she found that Black Jack was staring at her with his deep, dark eyes.
