Chapter 178 Come here!
Lathel spent the remaining time practicing, but after 12 hours, his training did not yield any positive results.
Leaving the \'Simulation Space\', Lathel sighed and frowned while pondering what could be done to solve this problem.
He then entered his own energy space again.
Anna and the lightning dragon immediately sensed Lathel\'s appearance and flew in front of him.
He looked at the lightning dragon and wondered how to explain the problem he was facing.
"Hm… If you could talk to me like Anna, that would be great."
"Of course I can!"
"Heh?!" Lathel was startled when he heard a voice that sounded like it was made from lightning.
It was like the kind of sound created by early recording equipment.
Although it was quite hard to hear, he could still understand what the other person was saying.
Lathel felt strange and asked: "Your rank is equal to Anna\'s, why can she communicate and speak in human language normally, but you can\'t?"
"Because the lightning dragon doesn\'t have a core yet." Anna answered on behalf of the dragon.
"Core?!"
"That\'s right." Anna nodded and said, She then flew around Lathel and wrapped her body around him.
"I am a Beast Flame, created from a snake-type monster. When I was formed, I also had a core inside me, which you can understand as my soul."
The lightning dragon is different; it seems to be just a form of energy. Being able to communicate with you is its limit; however, it can understand everything you say."
"Anyway, lightning is an extremely terrifying element. Combined with it being a dragon, it is almost an extremely intelligent and powerful creature. Therefore, do not despise it."
Lathel forced a smile: "Well... I don\'t underestimate the dragon, I just find it difficult to understand."
"Are you going to ask it to do something?" Anna asked.
Lathel nodded, not hiding what he wanted to do, and started explaining to the lightning dragon and Anna.
After hearing this, both of them felt extremely surprised by Lathel\'s idea.
"You really have a lot of crazy ideas."
Hearing Anna say that, Lathel smiled and scratched her head: "I\'ll take that as a compliment."
"That\'s right…" Anna stretched out her soft tongue, which had a burning flame, and lightly licked his neck, then moved to his cheek.
Lathel shuddered and said: "I told you not to do this again, don\'t you remember?"
"Hahaha… I remember very clearly, but I still want to do this. Can you punish me?" Anna laughed loudly, her smile teasing.
"You…" Lathel gritted his teeth, he really couldn\'t punish Anna, and besides, he didn\'t want to get into trouble.
"So… Do you have any way to help me?"
Anna turned to look at the lightning dragon, then shot a bolt of fire towards its forehead.
Lathel was startled when he saw this scene, but he also saw that the lightning dragon did not dodge, so he continued to remain silent.
The dragon closed its eyes. A moment later, it opened its eyes, and under Lathel\'s feet was a stream of lightning elemental energy enveloping him.
"You can try!"
The lightning dragon\'s voice rang out again.
Lathel was a bit surprised, he felt like his feet were stuck to the ground.
"That\'s amazing, you… heh?!" Lathel discovered one thing, his feet were indeed stuck to the ground, but he couldn\'t lift them up.
Lathel: "…"
"Hm… Lightning dragon, you can dispel the energy." Lathel sighed and said.
After the energy was dissipated, Anna frowned and asked: "Isn\'t it what you want?"
"Uhm!" Lathel nodded tiredly: "It\'s a little different. After all, I need tove; now I can only stand still."
"Then… we have to practice more." Anna said.
Lathel shook his head again: "No! I cannot stay in this space for long, otherwise, my real body will be in danger."
He talked with Anna and the lightning dragon for a while longer and allowed Anna to convey his intentions to the dragon, then he left the energy space.
Lathel sat next to the fire, sighed, feeling a bit tired.
\'If time in energy space was the same as in simulation space, it would be great.\'
\'But… I shouldn\'t be too greedy. Having the \'Simulation Space\' is such a wonderful thing, I couldn\'t ask for more.\'
Lathel sat still, looked at the sky and thought about many things. Anyway, now that Cauldron is watching, he doesn\'t need to worry too much.
At this time, inside the deep forest, a group of creatures was moving. Because it was so dark, no one could see their figures clearly.
Whispering voices rang out among those creatures.
"I\'m so hungry, that person\'s cooking is so delicious, I…"
"Don\'t let him fool you. He just used the scent of food to trick us."
"That\'s right, humanity is a bunch of liars and cruel people. Have you forgotten why we were imprisoned in this forest?"
"But… I\'m very hungry; the food that the young man cooked is very fragrant."
"The food I cooked is also very delicious, aren\'t you satisfied?"
"But your food is not as fragrant as his."
"..."
"Enough! Are you guys going to come into contact with humans just because you\'re hungry?"
"But… I feel like he seems like a good person."
"I feel the same way. He even agreed to guard his servant while she sleeps, I think he is a good person."
"Don\'t talk nonsense, are you guys stupid?"
"Enough! Say no more, you must not come into contact with humans. If I know that you dare to come into contact with him, I will cut off your legs, understand?"
"Understood…"
"But… okay, I understand."
…
In another place, Alec held a heavy sword and waved it so that the blood on the sword splashed out. On the ground around where he stood, the corpses of small goblins lay everywhere—
perhaps more than 10 goblins.
"Huh! Just a few weak goblins dare to block my path, stupid!"
Alec muttered a curse, Looking at the bodies of the goblins lying on the ground, he still felt unsatisfied.
"Each goblin is only about 10 points, I need to kill higher-level monsters."
He looked into the distance and silently said to himself: "I feel like there is an opportunity for me there."
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Suddenly, the sound of applause made him frown, and he looked towards the source of the sound.
"Who?!"
A young man wearing a cloak slowly walked in front of him.
That person had slightly curly brown hair, was about 180cm tall, and had an extremely handsome face.
"Do you still remember me?" Harris smiled as he calmly spoke.
Alec frowned: "Harris?"
"That\'s right."
"What are you here for?" Alec asked warily. He felt very uncomfortable when he saw this young man—so uncomfortable that it made him want to kill Harris immediately.
"Hahaha… of course I am meeting you so that we will cooperate."
"Cooperate? I\'m not interested." Alec attached the sword to his back, then turned and left.
Harris was not angry at all; he just smiled and said: "Don\'t you want to kill him?" The young man named Lathel."
Alec immediately stopped walking, frowned, turned his head, and glanced at Harris: "Why do I want to kill him?"
"Because your attitude, your expression… and your actions prove it." Harris said as he walked around Alec.
Of course, he still kept a certain distance from Alec. His feet stepped into the goblins\' blood, creating bloody footsteps on the ground.
"Oh! It seems… you have investigated me very carefully." Alec frowned, while looking sharply at Harris, not missing any of his small movements.
"No! You\'re wrong," Harris replied: "I just met you today, however, I feel like we can work together."
"How do I know if you are lying to me or not?" Alec said.
Harris stopped, turned his head, and looked into Alec\'s eyes, filled with murderous intent and hatred: "Can you guess..."
"Oh! I guess… you\'re telling the truth." Alec recognised that look.
It was a look of extreme horror, hatred, anger, and helplessness.
"That\'s right." Harris turned his head in the other direction, his voice extremely calm: "He killed my entire family, destroyed my life."
"I want him dead, I want to chew his bones, drink his blood, and tear him into a million pieces."
"I know… You are just like me. Your eyes when you looked at that bastard Lathel were also filled with murderous intent; you also wanted to kill him, right?"
Alec frowned and said: "Yes, but I have no reason to cooperate with you."
"Lathel is now a Duke, I don\'t have anything in my hands, I don\'t have the status or power to be able to confront him." Harris said.
"I think… you\'re no different from me, right?"
Alec now pulled out his sword and smiled confidently: "What I mean is... are you qualified to cooperate with me?"
"Hahaha… interesting… very interesting. Alec… You are very similar to me." Harris laughed loudly, then he also pulled out a black sword: "I also want to see... are you strong enough to become my ally?"
Alec was startled when he saw Harris\'s sword. An unpleasant feeling appeared in his heart.
"Teacher, that sword…" Alec used his thoughts to communicate with Medos.
"That\'s right, that sword is a high-ranking item, probably B-
rank. Combined with his natural talent, I\'m afraid you won\'t be able to win against him easily." Medos replied, his voice extremely serious.
"Even if I possess the Black Rose Flame, can\'t I win against him?"
Medos sighed and said: "It\'s very difficult, his talent and that sword are too strange. Besides... looking at his body, you can guess that he has been extremely well trained since he was young."
"Alec, I have to tell you something you don\'t want to hear... If you fight him, you only have a 40–60% chance of winning."
Hearing that, Alec frowned, however, what Medos just said did not worry him.
On the contrary, he felt more excited, and his fighting spirit increased.
"That\'s even better; an opponent that\'s too weak isn\'t enough for me to use my full power." Alec pointed his heavy sword at Harris.
Harris\'s sword was much smaller, like a normal sword, and the blade was about 60cm long.
Alec\'s sword is a heavy sword that is more than 1 metre long and 20cm wide.
However, Alec did not dare underestimate him and immediately used the Black Rose Flame to cover the blade.
Seeing that fire, Harris was a bit surprised: "Ah! Black Rose Flame, I never thought you would possess an essence flame. But… that\'s not enough."
"Come here!"
