Zongman: The wrong person on the ground, double Shenwei at the beginning

Even David, who had been frantically trying to guess Rhodes' thoughts, held his breath at that moment!

Once the Shadow Dragon had fully formed, it noticed Rhodes standing before it, and its soul-shaking roar abruptly ceased.

"Is it you who awakened me from my eternal slumber? King of the dead, Shadow King."

Only the Shadow King can pull souls that have fallen into the abyss of death back to the mortal world.

The dragon recognized Rhodes' true identity at a glance.

The undead king, who had taken on the form of a human, was staring at him with a gaze so majestic that it made his very soul tremble.

That absolute authority, originating from the deepest part of the soul and belonging to the monarch, stirred the dragon's instinctive trembling.

But this is only temporary.

The dragon's gaze slowly moved past Rhodes' shoulder and backward.

Then it saw those humans staring at it with their mouths agape and their expressions of foolish terror.

Humans...humans?!

The dragon instantly recalled the endless malice and hatred it had harbored for these tiny creatures before it breathed its last!

Immediately afterwards, the pain of being besieged by those humans using despicable means and having his throat slit alive also surfaced like a tidal wave in that instant!

We must kill all of these humans!

pat.

The string of reason snapped completely.

The giant dragon, having straightened its body, had a blood-red glint in its eyes!

"Kill them all...kill them all!!!"

The air inside the vault seemed to ignite in that instant, beginning to boil violently!

"My God..."

Chief David let out a desperate gasp.

This enormous space, specially built to house Kamish's remains, appeared surprisingly small the moment the dragon rose.

"Boom" sound.

Its head slammed into the ceiling, smashing the several-meter-thick reinforced concrete with a single blow!

Gravel fell like raindrops!

"W-what?!"

"No way...?"

Amidst the gasps of the crowd, a crimson light, growing ever brighter, was rapidly gathering within Kamish's abyss-like maw at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The Hunter Administration staff had held numerous meetings to review the recorded video footage after the Battle of Kamish, so they recognized this move immediately.

"That's...that's Kamish's breath!!!"

One of the managers turned deathly pale instantly, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground!

The other two frantically pressed the keypad code, trying to escape this death trap!

David, knowing that all his efforts were in vain, could only stare blankly at Rhodes and Kamish, his eyes filled with despair.

The red light formed by magic finally transformed into a sphere that shone with destructive light, like a miniature sun!

Just as that dragon's breath, hot enough to melt everything in the world, was about to erupt—

"Stop it."

Rhodes's calm, almost indifferent voice rang out clearly throughout the space.

The bureau chief and his entourage reflexively raised their arms to shield their eyes from the blinding light.

When the destructive light completely enveloped the interior space, everyone thought they were about to die.

But the expected death did not come.

They slowly lowered their hands, which had been covering their eyes, with trembling hands.

Then, they saw... a scene they could never comprehend, a scene that seemed like a divine miracle.

"How...how is this possible..."

The dragon was clearly radiating boundless rage and killing intent.

But the spark in its mouth, powerful enough to destroy everything, was extinguishing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The mighty dragon Kamish, which had vaporized the lives of over a hundred of humanity's most elite hunters with a single breath, abruptly halted its attack because of one sentence from that man?!

Still shaken, David's gaze was fixed intently on Rhodes.

What happened next made him feel like his worldview was being repeatedly rubbed into the ground!

Rhodes looked at the giant dragon and slowly said to it:

"The magic crystal embedded in your mind has long been removed. You no longer need to obey the commands of those rulers."

The words that came out of Rhodes' mouth were not any language known to humans, but Warcraft language.

This is a skill that Rhodes automatically mastered after obtaining the power of the Shadow King.

The giant dragon, which was standing fiercely upright, shuddered violently upon hearing this!

The bloodshot light in his eyes quickly faded.

Then it slowly lowered its proud head, obediently bringing its huge head close to Rhodes' body, showing him the highest respect and... obedience with an almost pious posture.

The giant dragon, its nose pressed against the ground, whispered.

"Your humble servant pays homage to the new king."

Rhodes reached out and placed his hand on her massive, mountain-like nose with a delighted expression.

The dragon closed its eyes comfortably, enjoying its master's caresses, and made gurgling sounds in its throat.

The enormous tail, formed by shadows, swayed gently behind him, like a spoiled puppy.

An indescribable sense of comfort and happiness flowed from the tip of its nose into the depths of its soul.

"Is this what it feels like to submit to the Shadow King...?"

Generally speaking, the higher the position, the stronger the ego.

Even the dragon itself was surprised that it obediently followed the new monarch's orders.

David and the trembling manager in the corner not far away rubbed their eyes in astonishment when they saw Kamish, who was so obedient and submissive that it was unbelievable. They could hardly believe what they were seeing.

"That Kamish... actually wagged its tail at Rhodes Hunter?"

"The worst disaster in human history, resurrected and becoming a hunter from another country, haha, hahaha, how could I have such a dream."

Rhodes felt the surging power within Kamish and smiled with satisfaction.

"How do you feel now?"

Kamish nudged Rhodes' hand gently with his nose, as if he were being affectionate.

"I feel great, my king! I can become even stronger!"

In the original story, Kamish failed to become a Shadow Soldier because he had been dead for too long... but now, he has succeeded.

"Very well. You can go and stay in my shadow for now."

"As you command, my king."

The enormous shadow dragon transformed into a streak of light and instantly disappeared into the shadow beneath Rhode's feet.

Rhodes looked at the enormous dragon remains before him, and with a casual wave of his hand, the entire mountain-like corpse vanished into thin air, stored in his Divine Might Space.

Kamish's body is already far too oversized material for this world.

There once was a master craftswoman who crafted the Wrath of Kamish from her only lost tooth before passing away due to old age.

There are no more awakened beings in the world who can turn the byproducts that fall from the dragon into weapons.

But the world of DanMachi has the most outstanding craftsmen.

Afterwards, Tsubaki can forge it into weapons for the girls to use; Kamish wouldn't object anyway.

Kamish in the shadows: "...."

David watched helplessly as Rod took away the national treasure of the United States, his heart aching with pain, yet he forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"Rhodes Hunter, is there anything else you need?"

At this moment, he had a feeling that he was using America's resources to win Rhodes' favor.

Rhodes, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped when he heard this.

"Hmm, now that you mention it, there really is one."

David's smile froze instantly.

He wished he could go back three seconds and slap himself hard across the face.

"Don't look at me with those resentful eyes."

Rhodes was fairly satisfied with his sensible attitude.

"You also have a national-level hunter named Christopher Reed, right?"

David was startled by what he heard. His legs went weak, and he almost knelt down before Rod on the spot, his face contorted with grief.

"He...he also offended you?!"

Rod casually tossed a pebble to David, who caught it in a flurry and held it carefully in his palm as if it were a sacred object.

"As long as he listens to me, he won't offend me."

"Tell 3.8 to always carry this with him and to crush it and call for help in case of emergency."

David was stunned, and his gaze toward Rhodes became incredibly complicated.

I thought this was an even more brutal dictator than Thomas, but I never expected... that he would have such a righteous and kind side?

"But...is Reed in danger?"

Rhodes's eyes deepened, and he spoke softly.

"This is complicated to explain. Just make him do as I ask. If he doesn't listen..."

Rhodes' tone suddenly turned cold.

"I'm going there right now to kill him with my own hands."

David's eyelids twitched violently, instantly overturning his naive idea.

Justice and kindness?

This guy is clearly the most dangerous tyrant and demon king in the world!

Damn it, which idiot said Asians are all gentle, obedient, and easy to talk to?!

Christopher Reed was equally hot-tempered and arrogant; the only difference between him and Thomas was probably his lone wolf personality.

"I promise! I promise he'll behave!"

But David still made his assurance to Rhodes in an incredibly confident tone.

He simply couldn't believe that even the most stubborn guy could remain arrogant after witnessing Thomas being easily crushed like a chick.

Rhodes nodded in satisfaction and turned to walk towards the exit.

Aside from the founding king who will inevitably appear in R country for the first time, a total of three monarchs will sense the location of the Radiant Fragment and simultaneously surround and kill Christopher Reed.

This is also why Rhodes did not immediately seal away the fragments of light that the other party had preserved.

Given the right opportunity, he can kill four birds with one stone!

After leaving the Hunter Administration, Rhodes could see David's hesitant expression, but he didn't bother to respond.
