Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

Liu Nian hovered in the center of the domain; he didn't even need to move, yet his attacks could cover the entire domain.

Within this realm, he is invincible, his damage and attack range are increased a thousandfold, his skills have no cooldown, and his movement is unrestricted! Within this realm, he is an immortal war god!

Liu Nian raised his hand and threw a punch at a clone in the distance who was desperately trying to escape.

A golden fist shadow appeared directly on the clone's chest. With a bang, the clone froze for a moment, then turned into ashes and scattered.

He lifted his foot again and stepped in the opposite direction.

Another giant footprint descended from the sky, crushing one of the clones!

Then came a slap, a side kick, and a casual pointing finger!

Like shooting at a target, one after another, Charon's clones turned to ashes in the golden beam of light, without even needing a second shot!

In just a few dozen seconds, all the clones were killed!

The Heavenly Army surrounded the last of Charon's clones, preventing him from escaping.

When Liu Nian's gaze met his and he raised his hand, Kalon stammered:

"Wait...wait a minute!"

"I...I have something to say..."

Looking at the trembling clone, Liu Nian slowly spoke:

"explain."

Caron looked up at Liu Nian with a complicated expression.

"My real name is not Karon. Or rather, Karon is just one of my many incarnations."

"My real name... never mind, it doesn't really matter..."

He paused, a glint of light flashing in his eyes—the last vestige of pride belonging to someone who had once stood at the pinnacle.

"I am the agent of death, the instigator of the undead scourge, and the creator of the era of zombification!"

Liu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Season 4?"

"That's right." Caron's voice carried a hint of bitterness. "I wield the power of Death and the Heart of the Demon, I am the representative of the Death Constellation on Earth, and I single-handedly started the war of the Zombie Age. If it weren't for that woman, Vinera—"

Its voice suddenly rose, carrying a resentment that had been suppressed for countless years, bordering on madness.

"If it weren't for Vinera, I would be the sole ruler of the underworld!!"

Liu Nian didn't speak, he just watched it quietly.

Caron took a few breaths to catch his breath, and his voice became low again.

"I lost that great battle. Vinera killed my true form and stole my Heart of the Fallen. My power crumbled overnight, and the undead lords I had personally nurtured eagerly jumped out to carve up my territory and hunt down the remnants loyal to me."

Its voice lowered, carrying a deep sense of sorrow.

"But I didn't die. I left behind a clone beforehand—that's Karon. It was very weak, so weak that no one would notice it. But it inherited a part of my memories and power, including the Death Covenant."

It raised its head and looked at Liu Nian:

"I've been waiting, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for me to accumulate enough power so I can control the power of the Annihilation Orb—my last trump card from back then. With it, I can reassemble my Death Avatar, regain my power, and reclaim my position as the ruler of the undead!"

"And then you'll go after Vinera and take revenge, pinning her to the ground and rubbing her against the ground ten thousand times?" Liu Nian picked up the conversation, his tone flat.

Caron: ...

Why bother? We couldn't beat them before, so now that they've surpassed us, we're even less likely to try and take advantage of them.

So the situation became a bit awkward at one point.

Liu Nian deactivated his transformation, a smile playing on his lips: "So, you know you can never defeat her in this lifetime, right?"

"I know," Caron didn't deny it, its voice soft, "but I have to try. Even if I can't, I must reclaim my position as lord and avenge myself against those who betrayed me!"

Liu Nian fell silent upon hearing this. Caron's words resonated with him. Wasn't he also seeking revenge against Matt, the traitor?

Moreover, this Karon's identity is indeed extraordinary, and he can control the power of death and manipulate the annihilation orb, which is definitely a powerful weapon!

"What if I told you I could help you get revenge?"

A look of surprise flashed across Caron's face.

Liu Nian said, "You should have noticed it by now, right? That giant void Kun that was chasing you before. So, in fact, we both come from the same place."

Upon hearing this, a look of realization flashed across Caron's face: "You were at Lake Eternal Darkness back then..."

"Yes, it's me!" Liu Nian said. "My current identity is just a disguise, because... to tell you the truth, I'm just like you now, a stray dog. The entire competition area has been occupied by other forces, and my kin have been forced to evacuate from there."

"I've heard about it," Caron said.

"But you probably don't know that the mastermind behind all this is the so-called Five Transcendent Ones. Therefore, it can be said that we have a common enemy!" Liu Nian's eyes shone brightly. "And you, as the initiator of Season 4, wield the power of death and possess the potential to manipulate the Orb of Annihilation. You would be a huge asset to my revenge. Moreover, our goals are aligned, so why don't you join me?"

Caron remained silent. He knew what Liu Nian meant; the so-called "joining" was just a euphemism. The real meaning was: "Come on, come on, be my pet!"

reject?

This option is essentially a death sentence.

But I agree... He was once the supreme figure of Season 4, and after years of enduring hardship and biding his time, he ended up like this.

I still find it hard to accept psychologically.

Fortunately, after all these years, he is no longer the arrogant representative of death he once was. Repeated failures and escapes have worn down his spirit. Moreover, becoming a pet means that as long as Liu Nian doesn't die, he won't die either, and he won't have to live a life of hiding every day anymore.

More importantly, Liu Nian is powerful enough! Even if he can't defeat a Transcendent, wiping out his former subordinates is definitely not a problem!

Liu Nian probably sensed a hint of hesitation in his heart, so he simply summoned Arachne and Xiao Tuantuan.

"These two are also my pets, both of them Eternal-level."

Liu Nian's meaning was quite clear: Don't think you're so great just because you're at the Eternal level. I have two more here, okay?

Liu Nian quietly watched Caron, neither urging him nor speaking again. Negotiations are best left unsaid; too much talk makes one seem cheap, and those who are overly eager are not in a business deal.

Caron kept his head down, his eyes flickering with uncertain light.

After a period of self-persuasion reminiscent of Ah Q, Kalon finally agreed to submit to Liu Nian and voluntarily offered up his soul contract.

Pets that voluntarily submit will not be reduced to level 0 pet eggs, but will maintain the same level as their owners.

Therefore, his level became 499.

This is also Liu Nian's last pet slot.
