He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact-Chapter 614. Checkmate
Everyone looked up.
A dragon. A crimson dragon.
What the hell was a dragon doing here?
Jian Chen looked at the egg.
He looked at Kailen Darkhaven.
He was smiling.
It clicked.
Somehow... somehow... Was this bastard behind this?
Everyone else shared similar thoughts.
They called him the Mad Tactician after all.
No.
Not even Darkhaven could pull off something like this.
How could he anger a dragon?
It was definitely some sort of coincidence.
"Insolence!" the voice of the dragon bellowed.
She was right to follow the trail of the scent.
This bastard was the chief perpetrator.
The one her egg was floating before.
And he had the scent of the perfume trail she had followed.
Perhaps the perfume trail was some alchemy product that had masked their presence and made them able to steal her egg without her noticing.
However, they were wrong about one thing.
Dragons had strong senses.
Kailen observed the dragon with emotional resonance.
She was thinking as he wanted.
Good.
The dragon thought further.
The other accomplices were the others with the scent on them.
As for the others without the scent, she’d spare them.
Dragons were prideful creatures.
They won’t attack anyone they didn’t have issues with for unnecessary reasons.
But for those who crossed them, instant death.
Suddenly, she released her aura of a rank 7 intermediate stage universe level.
No one could escape.
Her aura was suffocating.
The observers had wanted to distance themselves a moment ago, cursing themselves for coming here.
However, they could not move.
The weight of the dragon’s presence crashed into them, causing them to fall on the ground.
Even Kailen was included.
Legoland was currently lying on the floor on the mountain peak alongside him, the pressure heavy to bear.
At this moment, the dragon’s voice bellowed again.
"You dare steal my egg.
You should have done a better job eradicating the scent of the product you used to mask your presence"
This egg?
What scent?
What was the dragon talking about?
She didn’t even give Jian Chen and everyone else with the scent on them a chance to escape.
Fire law attacks, blue fireballs, emerged from her mouth and fell on them.
They could not even scream before they turned into ashes.
It was a very horrifying thing to watch.
"Checkmate."
At this moment, Kailen’s silent voice reverberated in the environs.
His statement.
It confirmed it.
He had hatched this whole scheme.
As for the dragon, she didn’t care about anything else apart from her egg.
She grabbed it with motherly love, gave everyone one last glance, and bolted off.
But after she left, the whole place was silent.
Everyone was staring at Kailen Darkhaven in fear.
He was a madman.
A fucking madman.
The mad tactician.
He actually orchestrated such a scheme?
How did he steal a dragon egg?
The egg of a rank 7 intermediate stage universe level powerhouse.
Who would dare to do that?
Also, the audience outside the secret realm were puzzled.
No one had seen any of his shadow creatures in any vicinity related to the dragon.
The nanodrones would have picked up the activity.
But there was none.
How had he done it?
After doing that, he left a trail of scent that led the dragon to this place and planted that scent on Jian Chen and everyone else who targeted him.
The familiar scent the dragon spoke of was the trail of scent Darkhaven had planted on Jian Chen and those targeting him, which the dragon had followed.
Then he made the egg appear before Jian Chen right when the dragon was almost here.
This would make the dragon think Jian Chen was the chief perpetrator of the incident and the others with the scent were his accomplices.
No one saw Darkhaven do any of this.
He had been sitting there calmly.
His calm was not out of fear.
It was the calm of a master chess player.
He knew the outcome of the game.
They had been wrong.
It was not because he had accepted death that he was calm.
It was because he had everything under control.
The secret realm was his chessboard.
Everyone else surrounding the mountain peak Kailen was sitting on stared at him in fear and shock.
A cultivator at the rank 5 beginner stage universe level could be so scary to those at the intermediate stage universe level?
But who could blame them?
After what had just happened?
The other core disciples of the Seasoned Prime Sect had arrived.
From when the dragon appeared to when Jian Chen and company died, they had seen everything.
And like everyone else in the secret realm currently around the mountain peak of Darkhaven and the audience outside the secret realm, they pieced everything together.
Kailen Darkhaven had killed these fellows without lifting a finger.
He had manipulated a dragon to kill these AshenBorne Sect members who wanted his mountain peak, and the Crimson Veiled Sect members who wanted him dead.
No.
He had manipulated everyone.
Outthought everyone.
The mad tactician.
This guy was a one of a kind strategist.
Comment sessions were silent.
The three great Sects were silent.
The Eldorath Empire was silent.
In fact, the news of this occurrence had even spread to the Astral, Arman Empires through virtual universe forums and platforms.
Even Arrie and the others in the mid tier Civilisations, taking on academy missions of the Dao Enlightenment Academy, were silent.
Everyone was completely shocked.
From Kailen’s grandfather, to any of his loved ones, to strangers, were shocked.
Many came to a terrifying conclusion.
This young man was unpredictable, terrifying and dangerous.
Factions vowed to align with him or find a way to eliminate him if they could not get him on their side.
As they expected, a former arbiter was a terrifying threat to their power.
But this one didn’t have the backing of a supreme, so things were different.
They could either use big offers to rope him in or attempt to get rid of him before he dominated them.
One mistake in judgement these factions were making was they thinking Kailen wanted to dominate them.
Kailen simply wanted to be powerful enough so that no one becomes a threat to him and his loved ones.
He didn’t have the desire to rule empires and factions.
It was a waste of time to him.
But these factions didn’t care about his thoughts.
They had seen former arbiters dominate regions and plunder hard earned empires from them before they became Supremes.
And this one had the most terrifying potential among them.
Better to rope him in early or eliminate him if he rejected their offers.
But everyone had the same thought.
He could not be underestimated.
Where combat was a disadvantage, he would use his psychological and tactical edge to his advantage.
And people like this were more dangerous than those who only relied on brute force.
Today, the mad tactician had cemented his reputation in the high tier Civilisations.
