Chapter 1394 Skill crystal 'As expected of Daen. He is not someone to go down easily.'
Ajax nodded his head as he understood why he didn't get the system notification regarding Daen's death earlier and the reason was simple: that he didn't die.
'I hope the protector spirit beast can heal itself soon and help the merged elemental spirit a little.'
From the beginning, Ajax was not expecting the merged elemental spirit to defeat Daen; however, after seeing the battle prowess of the merged elemental spirit, he felt it could defeat Daen as long as it received the help from the protector spirit beast.
However, currently, the protector spirit beast was healing its injuries and it would take a few minutes for it to join.
'I guess the situation is temporarily under control.'
Ajax stopped thinking about the battle between the merged elemental spirit and Daen as he checked the entire battlefield through the gap between the wings.
'The demon apostles are still having their heated discussions regarding the divine dragon.'
'My summons and the rest of the human cultivators were fighting against the mid-level demon kings, low-level demon kings and the demon cannon fodder.'
'As for the high-level demon kings, they were in a stalemate against the high-level king realm cultivators from the human side.'
'Overall, the invasion seems to be in more control than I originally thought.'
When he first learned about the large scale demon invasion, Ajax didn't expect that they could fight on equal grounds with less numbers.
However, he was doing much better than he initially guessed.
'I just need a few more minutes and I will break the stalemate between the high-level king realm cultivators.'
With a slight smile on his face, Ajax decided to break the stalemate.
According to Ajax's plan, the high-level demons should be killed as soon as possible. Only then, they could have enough high-level king realm cultivators to fight against the demon apostles.
'Westin still needs to kill a few more mid-level demon kings.'
Even though Westin was supposed to kill the mid-level demon kings, most of the time, he found only low-level demon kings.
So, it was taking more time than Ajax thought; however, Ajax was not bothered much by it because the situation was completely under his control.
'Once Westin's demonic form is upgraded, it is time to break the stalemate between the king realm cultivators.'
Ajax's plan was to use Westin in killing the high-level demon kings and gain the upper hand against the demons before the demon apostles could realize what was happening.
Even though it seemed silly that the demon apostles were having a heated discussion just because of Elder Boron's words, in acutal, it was a serious issue.
For the demon apostles, compared to the invasion of a lowly normal world, getting the information on the divine dragon was much better because even the smallest information could change their lives.
And by chance, if they were lucky enough to find where the divine dragon was, they would become the most respectful demon in the five demon territories.
According to the prophecy, the one with the divine dragon would become the leader of all five demon territories and even though they knew they could not become the leader, they might become the most trusted demon apostle of that demon emperor.
Of course, for that to happen, they need to find whether the divine dragon was really in the primordial demon emperor' territory.
...
'Since it will take a few minutes for Westin to fill the required units of the special demonic energy, I will spin the roulettes.'
With a slight smile on his face, Ajax sat down on the ground and checked the roulettes in the user interface.
Other than the regular roulette which gives random items, there is now a world core roulette that gives the smaller, normal and greater world cores.
'Both rouletttes has three spins. Excellent. Time to use them all.'
The three spins for the world core roulette was the reward he received recently from saving Westin and the spins from the other roulette was accumulated whenever he gains a new follower or copmplete some missions.
'Let's go with the old roulette first.'
Ajax selected the roulette that gives random items.
'System, use all three spins.'
He didn't waste his time in using his spins one by one; instead, he used them all in a single go.
'Ding,
The host received a skill crystal from his first spin.
'Ding.
The host received nothing in his second spin.
'Ding,
The host received a 'Teleportation circle' from his third spin.
Soon, the system showed Ajax what he gained from each spin individually.
'What? A skill crystal and a Teleportation circle?'
Even though he gained nothing in his second spin, that didn't bother Ajax even a slightest bit because the other two items he received were far greater than he had expected.
'Is it because my strength has grown? Or is it because of the system upgrade?'
Even though the general roulette would give good items, it was very rare or on special occasions; however, he received two good items in a single go.
So, he thought about the reason behind it.
'Whatever, I will just enjoy the rewards.'
Ajax felt it was useless to think about it as he would start accumulating the spins once again and use them in the future when his strength upgrades once again.
'Let's see what skill is inside this skill crystal.'
With that thought in his head, Ajax directly crushed the skill crystal because it is the only way to know what skill was stored inside it.
'It's a bit painful but it's nothing in front of the pains I have endured in the past.'
Ajax felt a slight pain in his spirit consciousness; however, it was not enough to make him fall to his knees.
'Ding,
Please wait a few minutes as the skill is still in the awakening stage.
Seeing that Ajax was able to endure the pain, the system asked him to wait.
'Okay.'
Ajax nodded his head and muttered, 'Meanwhile, I will check the second item I received from the spin.'
