"Miss Robin, please return to the lounge. Just a moment, we are about to land."
Derick's voice was low, its tone making Robin unable to refuse.
"Yes."
Whether it was her internal desire to stall Derick's situation, or the aura Derick displayed at that moment, she could not refuse.
She obediently went to the lounge.
Cipher, Polyxia, and Jingliu (disguised as Castorice) were also in the lounge, preparing to welcome the beast ship's landing.
Robin saw them, and a look of surprise appeared on her beautiful face.
How is it that on this beast ship, I'm not the only non-Borisin young woman? There are also several young women here who are no less attractive than me. Were they also abducted?
Robin thought to herself, just about to ask.
At that moment, she saw Cipher peering out the window, speaking excitedly: "We're finally at the Borisin headquarters. I've been cooped up on this beast ship for days. Once we get down, I'm definitely going to find some fun."
"I wonder if these Borisin have any good treasures I can steal," Cipher murmured to herself.
It had been so long since she had stolen from anyone; Cipher's hands were simply itching. Anyway, Derick wouldn't stop her from stealing from the Borisin.
Polyxia also knew her situation, and seeing that it was about stealing from the Borisin, she wore a look of approval.
Robin's mouth slightly opened.
Who are these people?! We are about to land on the Borisin's planet. Those Borisin are the kind who eat people whole without spitting out the bones.
But then Robin had a sudden realization.
These people in front of her were completely different from her situation. They probably came here willingly with Derick. With Derick around, not only would they not feel afraid, but they would feel incredibly excited.
Seeing this situation, Robin decided to keep quiet and just wait here for rescue. Or perhaps, she could find an opportunity to escape from here.
Cipher's peripheral vision caught Robin's expression. Robin's small movements might fool others, but it was impossible to hide them from her, a Trickster Demigod.
"This young woman captured by the Borisin is probably thinking about how to save herself, right? But it doesn't matter. If I were in her shoes, I'd do the same. As long as what she does doesn't affect Derry's affairs, then it doesn't matter," Cipher thought to herself.
Derick also began to prepare for the descent onto the Borisin homeworld.
He had prepared a cape and a mask, covering his body and most of his face. Now, looking at Derick, one could only tell he was a handsome young man of the human race by the small part of his face that was revealed.
Moldu and other Borisin who had met Derick before were now lined up in two rows, waiting for Derick to disembark from the beast ship.
Seeing this situation, Derick spoke: "Let's go. Let me see my subordinates."
With that, he stepped between the two rows of people and walked towards the Borisin's planet.
Stepping out of the beast ship.
Derick saw that the welcoming Borisin had filled all the surrounding space. Both the flat ground and the mountains were packed with people.
These were only a very small fraction of the elite Borisin. Their strength allowed them to be among the first to meet Derick and pay homage to him.
And even this small portion of the entire Borisin population numbered in the hundreds of thousands. The entire planet had over a hundred billion. And those Borisin with weaker strength, on beast ships and nearby planets, were countless.
When they saw Derick walk out of the beast ship, those Borisin who had been eagerly anticipating a glimpse of their new majestic War Chief were all dumbfounded.
The one who came out was clearly a human.
"Moldu, where is our new War Chief?" one Borisin shouted loudly. He clenched his fist, seemingly intending to tear apart and kill the Derick who had just appeared before him.
And just as he was saying this, Derick appeared before him, stabbing him through the heart. At the same time, before he could even react, Derick once again unleashed the Crimson Moon's devouring ability, consuming the Borisin's flesh and blood clean.
"I am your new War Chief. Do any of you have an objection?"
Derick once again displayed his brutal side when dealing with the Borisin.
Moldu, and the other Borisin who had been "dealt with" by Derick before, couldn't help but feel a sense of gratification.
Yes, that's right, Lord Derick, deal with these Borisin too! When they came to meet Derick, they had all been thoroughly "dealt with." Now, if their fellow Borisin were to simply surrender without doing anything, they felt it was somewhat unfair.
Why should things be so smooth for you? Now that Lord Derick wants to kill you to establish his authority, we are balanced.
The Borisin on the beast ship excitedly watched Derick's battle.
Meanwhile, the Borisin on the ground, seeing Derick so easily kill one of them, were first scared into retreating. But then they charged towards Derick.
Seeing them charge, Derick also swung the sharp sword in his hand and rushed into the Borisin crowd.
He swung his long scythe, instantly slicing several Borisin in half at the waist. Such damage was not fatal to Borisin. However, after slicing them in half, Derick immediately devoured their flesh and Abundance energy.
This was what truly killed them.
While cutting them down, Derick shouted in the Borisin language he had recently learned:
"Those who are not afraid of death, step forward! Those who want to live, retreat and kneel before me!"
With that, his attack speed and force further increased.
At this moment, on the Borisin's beast ship, Polyxia and Jingliu, disguised as Castorice, also moved to help Derick.
Polyxia's intention was primarily to help Derick, while Jingliu's was largely to alleviate her own Mara-Struck combat urges.
Polyxia transformed into a giant dragon, lunging into the Borisin crowd, flapping her wings and breathing dragon fire. These Borisin could not withstand such intense attacks and were instantly reduced to dust.
On the other side, Jingliu, although disguised as Castorice, with her usual longsword replaced by a scythe, this did not affect her fighting at all. At her level, she could be said to be a master of all weapons, using any weapon at will.
The scythe flew up and down in her hands, and the casualties among the Borisin were even greater than on Derick's side.
After all, when it came to familiarity with the Borisin, Jingliu could be said to far surpass Derick. She could easily find their weaknesses and kill them.
However, among the Borisin fighting Jingliu, there seemed to be survivors from seven hundred years ago. Seeing this woman's attack movements and aura, they felt a sense of familiarity.
But before they could figure it out, Jingliu's attack had already arrived, shattering their thoughts along with their bodies.
"Are those two women beside Lord Derick also that strong?" On the beast ship, because they weren't directly facing Jingliu, Moldu and the others couldn't discern that Castorice was actually Jingliu in disguise. They were simply shocked by the strength of these two.
Robin watched from the side, not only feeling their immense strength but also feeling her limbs turn cold at their brutal attack methods.
Facing the Borisin, brutal attack methods were appropriate. But thinking that Derick was also the War Chief of the Borisin, Robin felt a deep fear for his attack methods from within her heart.
"Wait, this is an opportunity. I can use this time to escape with my companions."
Robin thought again, her eyes lighting up.
But just as she was about to act, Robin saw Cipher watching her with a smiling face. Seeing Cipher there, Robin could only suppress this thought in her heart.
Cipher glanced at Robin, then continued to watch Derick's battle.
"Derry, go for it!"
Cipher shouted excitedly.
***
Jingliu and Polyxia stopped fighting after a while. This was mainly Derick's show; they were just here to help.
Derick continued to fight.
Consuming the flesh and blood of the Borisin he killed became nourishment for his stamina, so he didn't need to worry about exhaustion.
Tens of thousands of elite Borisin were devoured by Derick. The remaining Borisin were terrified; many retreated from the battlefield, kneeling before Derick to show their submission.
Many other Borisin continued to attack Derick, and Derick continued his slaughter.
After another period of slaughter, those Borisin who had surrendered were already kneeling. And those Borisin who were dissatisfied with Derick, not considering him a qualified War Chief, had been completely slain by Derick.
Finally, on the battlefield, only one Borisin remained standing.
This Borisin felt strange to Derick during the battle. He neither expressed surrender nor fought against Derick. He simply stood aside, waiting quietly.
Derick clearly sensed the opponent's strength was not strong, he could easily solve him. It was just his strange behavior that made Derick not move against him, waiting until everyone else was dealt with before looking at him.
"Do you want to fight me, or do you want to submit to me?" Derick asked him.
The Borisin put his hands together and bowed to Derick: "I did not come here for that purpose."
Looking at his actions, and his attire, Derick thoughtfully asked: "You, are you from the Danlun Temple?"
"Precisely."
The Borisin monk nodded gently.
During the long wars of the Denizens of Abundance, a group of Borisin grew tired of endless conflict and slaughter. So, this group of Borisin abandoned their faith, left the warring factions, and established the Danlun Temple.
The Danlun Temple is a monastic building floating outside the heavens. They appear in any war related to the Denizens of Abundance, collecting remains and performing rites for the deceased. Some snatched orphans would grow up to become monks of the Danlun Temple, dedicating themselves again to this cause.
Derick hadn't expected to see a Borisin monk from the Danlun Temple at the Borisin headquarters.
Hearing this news, Moldu and the others on the beast ship became anxious. They all descended from the beast ship, wanting to kill the Borisin monk.
Derick glared at them, stopping their actions. Then he continued to look at the monk, asking:
"So why have you come here?"
"I came to persuade you to stop the slaughter, to stop the plunder of other races," the monk sincerely said.
The news of a new Borisin War Chief was known not only to ordinary Borisin. Even the Borisin monks of the Danlun Temple knew of this news. Hearing that the Borisin had a new War Chief, the monks couldn't help but be worried.
Previously, the Borisin were like scattered sand, yet they caused great destruction throughout the entire Universe / Cosmos. Now they had a new War Chief; how much of a threat would such Borisin pose to the cosmos?
The monks knew they could not stand idly by and let this happen.
Therefore, a very old and highly moral Borisin monk came to see Derick, wanting to know what he was truly thinking. If possible, it would be best to persuade the new Borisin War Chief to abandon slaughter and maintain peace in the entire universe.
After listening to the monk's thoughts, Derick couldn't help but laugh loudly.
Grabbing his neck and pinning him to the ground with his foot, Derick spoke harshly to him: "I have killed so many people, do you think I still have a kind personality?"
The monk closed his eyes, speaking in a persuasive tone: "I believe everyone has goodness in their heart, new Borisin War Chief, I believe I can persuade you."
However, in his heart, he also felt some despair. The new Borisin War Chief's appearance truly did not seem like that of a benevolent person. His coming here was merely to offer more flesh and blood to him.
Just as the Borisin monk was thinking this, Derick's foot on him loosened.
He looked at Derick in confusion.
At that moment, Derick said to him: "Since you have the courage to come and persuade me, I will give you this opportunity."
The monk's expression showed surprise.
"You, you are willing to listen to me recite scriptures?"
Derick shook his head.
Seeing Derick's reaction, the monk's expression darkened again.
Derick's tone immediately shifted, and he said to the monk: "I am no longer willing to preach these things, but I can preach them among your Borisin tribe. If you can make more Borisin believe in putting down their weapons and maintaining peace, I can give you and me the opportunity to preach."
Hearing such an opportunity, the Borisin monk immediately rejoiced, stood up, and repeatedly said to Derick: "I will do it now, I will do it now."
The monk left, and Derick looked at the kneeling Borisin, saying: "He is here to preach with my permission. If anyone tries to stop him, they are going against me. If anyone wishes to follow his teachings, you also cannot stop them."
Moldu and other Borisin came over, hearing Derick and the monk say this, and immediately asked anxiously: "Lord War Chief, why did you let that monk go? And why are you letting him preach among our Borisin people?"
Nonsense, I finally found someone who can help me discern the Borisin's situation, why would I do the work myself?
Derick intended to deal with the Borisin separately.
At first, he planned to discern them himself, but now that he had a monk from the Danlun Temple who could do the work for him, Derick naturally couldn't be more pleased.
However, Derick would not show this to Moldu and the others. He looked at Moldu and whispered: "When I take over the Borisin, I naturally need to know what the current Borisin are thinking. Who can be my subordinates, and who yearns for peace and needs to be eliminated."
"I understand, I understand," Moldu said repeatedly.
Hearing Derick's explanation, Moldu immediately felt relieved. Lord Derick is doing well! Those who yearn for peace should be dealt with. Remaining within the Borisin tribe, they are a ticking time bomb and should be purged.
As for the issue of yearning for peace. Moldu glanced at the Borisin scattered everywhere, dead and wounded, and he knew Derick was not that kind of person.
While he was thinking, Derick patted his shoulder.
"Come, take me to the War Chief's palace. After killing so many people, I'm a bit tired and need more rest," Derick said to Moldu.
Then, he immediately summoned the Borisin's small biological transportation vehicle, had Derick and the others board it, and set off towards the War Chief's palace.
***
The War Chief's palace, compared to the lounge on the beast ship, was many levels more luxurious.
Thousand-meter-high pillars, walls and floors made of gold. The palace's backyard directly enclosed a large sea, turning it into an inland lake.
Even Derick felt a sense of awe at this moment.
This palace is truly grand, but who knows how many people from other planets were worked to death during its construction, Derick thought to himself.
Moldu and the others left after bringing Derick here, not daring to disturb him further.
Cipher, looking at the palace, felt her hands itching.
"If I were to steal…" She was just getting excited, but then immediately realized: "Damn, this palace belongs to Derry, which means it's our own. Stealing from your own home is no fun."
Derick naturally heard Cipher's words, and his expression almost broke into a smile.
However, just as he was about to smile, more memory fragments surged into Derick's mind.
Killing Mydei, killing Aglaea, killing Phainon, killing Cipher, killing Castorice!
The memories of the Flame-Reaver were absorbed even more. Those memories of the Flame-Reaver killing the Chrysos Heirs once again gushed into his mind like a geyser.
Cipher was still chatting and laughing when she suddenly noticed Derick's abnormal situation. Seeing Derick like this, she immediately supported him.
"Derry, let's go rest now," she said softly.
At the same time, her gaze shifted to Polyxia.
Polyxia, now is your time to act.
Seeing Cipher's expression, Polyxia silently nodded.
"I understand, Cipher."
I will now prepare to disguise myself as my elder sister and find a way to comfort Derick.
