Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 253 Orange's Servant

This Holy Grail War is undoubtedly a golden opportunity for Crydella.

If she can win this war, she will be able to descend to this world in her true form and witness the outer world she has always dreamed of.

Of course, rather than engaging in close combat with the enemy on the front lines, she was better at strategizing and using the world as a chessboard to skillfully command her troops in battle.

However, this does not mean that her direct combat ability is weak.

In fact, when she plays chess, her favorite strategy is to move the king in the opening move, demonstrating her leadership and courage to take the lead.

Because of her own abilities and personality, Crydela values ​​Zhang Lexuan highly and wants to carefully cultivate her to make this Master stronger, thus making her the most crucial and powerful piece on her chessboard.

Zhang Lexuan had no objection to this, since Krystal's abilities were of great help to her.

Moreover, in their daily interactions, she also grew fond of this unique empress.

Although Cerberus was an empress, she had her own unique principles.

She dislikes people taller than her bowing their heads below her crown, and no one other than close relatives is allowed to approach within five meters of her.

This contradictory personality, which is both approachable and arrogant, is just as striking as her contrasting outfits, leaving a deep impression.

At the same time, just like her figure, she has the petite and cute appearance of a legal loli, but she exudes a full imperial aura, majestic and solemn, which makes people feel awe.

At this moment, there was at least five meters between Keludela and Lu Jingming.

Although she had been summoned by Zhang Lexuan for some time, in Krydela's heart, there were only a handful of people besides Zhang Lexuan who she considered close.

Unfortunately, Lu Jingming is not among this minority.

In truth, Lu Jingming still quite liked this empress who had the appearance of a fake loli, but unfortunately, he had not yet gained her approval.

Interestingly, Krydela and Xydela have a rather harmonious relationship.

Although they came from different eras, Xia Die held the first leader of the Fire Chasing Journey in high esteem.

Crydella also greatly admires her companion, Shady, who is also a demigod of the Golden Clan.

After all, in this unfamiliar world, women with similar backgrounds are more likely to resonate with each other.

As a demigod of law, Krydella's laws, based on her understanding of the law and her meticulous observation of the actual situation in Abyss City, are naturally trustworthy.

Moreover, for Zhang Lexuan, learning and exchanging ideas with Kelidestra was undoubtedly very beneficial.

After all, Cerdydra, as an empress, possessed rich experience in ruling and outstanding leadership skills.

As for Zhang Lexuan, with an identity she herself is unaware of, she might very well become an empress of the empire at some point in the future, even if it's just for a short time.

As Lu Jingming watched Keludela and Zhang Lexuan walk further and further away, his thoughts drifted involuntarily to the information Ji Yingying had provided.

All this intelligence was provided by Orange, and the Sun Moon Empire's every move was under his control.

Orange has successfully graduated from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and, under Xu Tianran's careful arrangement, has joined the army.

She seemed born for the military field, possessing exceptional military talent from birth. Soon after joining the army, she quickly distinguished herself and established herself firmly in the military.

Even with Ju Zi's outstanding military talent and the support of Crown Prince Xu Tianran, it would still take her some time to establish herself in the military, where powerful figures abound.

However, things often develop unexpectedly.

As expected, Orange was also chosen by the Holy Grail and became a Master.

What surprised Lu Jingming the most was that the Servant summoned by Orange was far more powerful than he had imagined, far surpassing Skirk and Crydella. Raiden Mei was no different; she was insignificant in front of that Servant.

With the help, or perhaps to some extent, of this powerful servant, Orange not only solidified her position in the military, but also transformed herself from Xu Tianran's most trusted subordinate into his best collaborator.

Xu Tianran's initial plan was to give Ju Zi the title of Crown Princess, using this identity to help Ju Zi better control the military.

However, plans can't always keep up with changes. Due to the overwhelming power of the Servants summoned by Orange, the military of the Sun Moon Empire will likely fall completely under Orange's control before long.

Faced with this situation, Xu Tianran's attitude also underwent a huge change, gradually evolving from complete trust to a mixture of fear and attempts to win him over, which was truly both laughable and lamentable.

Ju Zi had finally gained Xu Tianran's trust and become his most trusted subordinate, but because she summoned an incredibly powerful servant, Xu Tianran became wary of her instead.

However, everything has two sides.

The downside was that it aroused Xu Tianran's suspicion, but the upside was that Ju Zi's status rose from a mere subordinate to a collaborator on equal footing with Xu Tianran. After all, Ju Zi had always shown unwavering loyalty, and even after summoning a powerful Servant, she still treated Xu Tianran with utmost respect.

In this situation, Xu Tianran weighed the pros and cons and changed his attitude towards Ju Zi, transforming her from an outstanding subordinate whom he was focusing on cultivating into a trustworthy ally.

After all, Xu Tianran was no ordinary person. He was a powerful and ruthless figure who could tolerate and even exploit evil spirit masters. How could he easily give up such a powerful ally as Ju Zi?

His willingness to allow Orange to control the military of the Sun Moon Empire without taking any countermeasures clearly indicates that he was confident in his abilities.

Even without using the Holy Grail's backend privileges, Lu Jingming could guess from his analysis of the situation that Xu Tianran was most likely also chosen by the Holy Grail, and had drawn a powerful ace servant, which was why he was not afraid of the powerful servant behind Orange.

It was under these circumstances that the Sun and Moon Empire so confidently chose Mingdu as the battlefield for the Holy Grail War.

Lu Jingming couldn't help but sigh that the Sun Moon Empire was incredibly lucky.

Given the significance of Ju Zi and Xu Tianran in the trajectory of this planet's destiny, it is only natural that they would become Masters.

But the fact that they were able to summon such a powerful Servant, who was practically at the top level, was purely due to luck.

Oranges are one thing, but Xu Tianran's clan was originally all dark-skinned, which is not the kind of luck that is particularly good. Could it be because their bloodline is no longer pure?

After all, through generations of intermarriage, the skin color of the Xu royal family was no longer as dark as before; at least Xu Tianran's skin color was much more normal.

Despite receiving such powerful assistance, Ju Zi clearly had no intention of betraying Wu Chang Si and Lu Jing Ming.

On the contrary, she secretly sent a distress message to Lu Jingming through encrypted channels.

Although Lu Jingming did not witness Ju Zi's expression at the time, he could clearly feel the fear and helplessness conveyed in her short text.

She was genuinely terrified by the servant she had summoned, a fear dozens of times stronger than when she had witnessed Xu Tianran's brutality.

When Lu Jingming learned the name of the Orange Servant, he almost couldn't help but swear.

He was speechless. How much negative energy had Douluo Continent accumulated over the past ten thousand years that even a character like this could be summoned?

At the same time, for the first time, he felt a headache coming on from the memory bank he had built.

After all, his memory bank contains many "problem children," and many of them are extremely troublesome.

If these characters were summoned, the Douluo Continent would surely be plunged into an unprecedentedly lively situation.

However, amidst his worries, a hint of excitement stirred within him.

Perhaps this is why he did not impose restrictions on the memory bank.

He seemed to be anticipating something unexpected, even though this idea was somewhat contradictory.

Lu Jingming himself often felt conflicted, wanting to keep a low profile and develop steadily, yet also yearning to do something big from time to time.

They want to control the course of development, yet they are also full of anticipation for the unknown variables.

Driven by this contradictory mindset, he had long anticipated that someone would summon a troublesome character, but he never restricted the memory bank, allowing others to summon them randomly.

As for who Xu Tianran summoned, Lu Jingming, who had already restricted himself from using backend privileges, had no idea.

However, the fact that Xu Tianran is not afraid of the powerful servant behind the orange suggests that this servant's strength must be considerable.

Either Xu Tianran was completely unaware of the terrifying power of the servants behind Ju Zi, or his own servants were equally powerful enough to contend with him.

Lu Jingming's intuition told him that the latter was more likely.

After all, Xu Tianran was a major boss in the original work, and with his luck and ability, the servants he summoned would certainly not be mediocre.

If the original Douluo Three Kingdoms and Shrek Academy had not summoned a Servant to match them, then everyone might have stumbled in the Soul Master Competition held in Mingdu this time.

The Servant behind Orange alone is capable of wiping out everyone, not to mention the Servant that Xu Tianran is hiding.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao is also in Xu Tianran's camp.

Although he has lost his status as the Chosen One and most of his fortune has been transferred to Lu Jingming, even so, given his original status on Douluo Star, he will definitely be chosen by the Holy Grail to become a Master, and the Servants he summons will likely be extremely powerful.

"I can't wait! Things are getting more and more interesting." Lu Jingming looked up at the direction of the rising dawn, a smile unconsciously appearing on his lips.

For him, being invincible alone was too lonely, and the current situation has finally given him some enjoyment.
