Playing a DPS Role with Absolute Defense-Chapter 180 - 178: Let’s Begin—Who Will Take My Move?

Chapter 180: Chapter 178: Let’s Begin—Who Will Take My Move?

Just a single glance was enough; they didn’t even need to speak. They already knew what to do in their hearts.

Though they could guess that since the other party dared to make such a demand, they must be confident that they could prevent them from succeeding.

Unfortunately, the opponent wasn’t aware that they had someone like Su Mo, an existence akin to a bug in a system.

Lagros quietly watched the three people before him, who seemed as small as ants, waiting for their response.

Tu Hongwu stood in the cosmos, with the turbulent Sea of Blood beneath him. Behind him, a blood-colored dragon danced wildly, while in his hand a nine-layered scarlet Treasure Tower emanated a blood-red glow, truly like a Human World War God. No, it should be said he was like an Asura War God.

At this moment, Tu Hongwu was already wielding the full heritage of the Dragon Race.

The Sea of Blood below was forged from billions upon billions of lives of the Tri-Eyed Race, and the blood-colored dragon behind him was a puppet formed by refining a Super God level True Dragon corpse he found during his travels through the universe, using killing intent and various celestial treasures.

As for the Treasure Tower in his hand, it was forged using his killing intent as the core, combining the efforts and highest technology from all the Divine Level powerhouses of the Human Race.

It was because these were all forged with Tu Hongwu’s killing intent at the core that only Tu Hongwu could truly control them, allowing him to face off against the Super God peak terror before them.

Although another master could also use them, they could never wield them with the same powerful might as Tu Hongwu.

At this moment, Tu Hongwu’s brow furrowed slightly, his blood-red pupils glanced at the terrifying existence before him, so vast it seemed endless, and he spoke in a low voice:

"Since it’s a bet, why can’t we set the conditions?"

"Because I’m stronger!"

Lagros spoke briefly but clearly expressed his meaning.

It meant that the conditions he set were the conditions, and they only had the right to choose.

Although now they barely had the strength to injure him, if they really fought, they would still undoubtedly die. That was the reason.

The expression on Tu Hongwu and the others was extremely unpleasant on hearing this. Chu Tian’s tightly clenched fists made a cracking sound, his anger evident, and if Bai Yuanhao hadn’t held him back, he might have already charged forward.

After another moment of silence, Bai Yuanhao set up hundreds of layers of Space Barriers, enclosing the three within.

Then they began their discussion right before Lagros.

Because of those hundreds of Space Barriers, Lagros couldn’t hear what they were discussing.

But seeing the three with flushed faces, it was easy to guess they had indeed started arguing.

However, despite this, Lagros did not intend to make a move directly.

If the Human Race were truly willing to accept this gamble, he might not even need to make a move; they would withdraw on their own, saving an entire battle.

Mainly because if these people went berserk, he would also get hurt. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble and could have just slapped them down to end it.

Inside the layers of Space Barriers, the three argued hotly.

Chu Tian: "I already said tofu pudding should be eaten sweet!"

Tu Hongwu: "That’s nonsense, savory is the way!"

Bai Yuanhao: "Actually, I think spicy is the best."

Tu Hongwu: "Spicy belongs to the savory side too."

Bai Yuanhao: "If you add sugar, it enhances the taste, making it more delicious..."

"Get lost! *2"

This century-old problem that had troubled the Human Race for countless years was once again discussed by them in this kind of situation.

After a full 10 minutes, the Space Barriers opened again. Tu Hongwu still looked a bit grim, as the argument just now still hadn’t solved the century-old problem troubling the Human Race.

But now they had the required appearance, it was time to deal with the problem at hand.

They really wanted to kill the big guy in front of them, but with the current strength of the Human Race, it was simply impossible.

Besides, they were really not far from Earth, and if a fight started, any mistake could lead to Earth’s destruction, something Tu Hongwu, Bai Yuanhao, and the others did not want to see happen.

Of course, Lagros didn’t want to see that either, but Tu Hongwu and the others didn’t know.

"Are you sure that as long as someone from the Human Race survives one of your blows, you’ll leave immediately?"

When Lagros heard this, he guessed the person asking was probably the one intending to take his hit, and his eyes lit up immediately.

In his eyes, as vast as two planets, flames flickered in and out, and a thunderous voice emerged once more:

"As long as you agree to the wager, I can immediately swear to the system, that if I dare to break my oath, I will face immediate rule destruction, origin shattering, and soul annihilation!"

In his original plan, he thought they would choose the second option of having someone clear a Dungeon.

After all, that gave them a sliver of hope, but if they choose to take one of his moves, they would definitely die.

Only with all three working together could they inflict any damage on him, but if one died early, the situation would be different.

He merely agreed that they could leave, whether they had the ability to do so was another matter entirely.

It was precisely this that made him feel a bit strange.

People who had reached this level of the Human Race were clearly not fools, but they still made such a choice; could there be something he didn’t know?

With this thought, Lagros immediately dismissed it, as if they had the ability to drive him away or block one of his attacks, they wouldn’t have chosen to negotiate.

"Then make your vow!"

[System witness, I, Lagros, make a wager with the Human Race. The loser must retreat immediately. Should I violate this, I shall face immediate rule destruction, origin shattering, and soul annihilation!]

A low murmur resounded in the universe, each word unclear and indistinct to Tu Hongwu and the others.

But when all the words were strung together, their meaning became perfectly understandable.

At the same time, in front of Tu Hongwu appeared a black Scroll, recording all that Lagros said.

Looking at the words on it, Tu Hongwu frowned deeply once more, and even before Lagros could speak again, Tu Hongwu quickly said:

"No, you must add a time limit. Otherwise, what if you leave and come right back? Who could stop you?"

After listening, Lagros didn’t bother arguing with Tu Hongwu because in his view, he had already won this battle, so adding a time limit made no difference.

[System witness, I, Lagros, make a wager with the Human Race. The loser must retreat immediately and not enter the Human Race’s territory within three years. Should I violate this, I shall face immediate rule destruction, origin shattering, and soul annihilation!]

"Three years is too short, at least 100 years."

"Human Race, you are going too far."

"Then how about 10 years?"

Lagros glanced at Tu Hongwu and in the end did not refute, once more asking for the system’s witness.

When everything was completed, flames burst from Lagros’ eyes: "Fine, let’s start. Who will take my strike?"

However, Tu Hongwu lightly shook his head, and before he could speak, Lagros roared angrily: "Human Race, do you intend to go back on your word? My patience has limits!"

Tu Hongwu chuckled softly and shook his head again: "We’re not backing out, just choosing someone else to do it."
