The wrong transmigrator assigned by the system

“Yes! I understand!” the two centaur archers said in unison.

"Very good!" Looking at his two obedient subordinates, Rota kicked his hooves, then drew his sword from his waist, pointed in Calypso's direction, and roared to the dozens of centaur followers behind him, "Destiny protects our centaur race! A little over a month ago, we hunted down the lord of Odysseus's territory and received a reward of thousands of gold coins. And once again, we will hunt him down again!"

"Roar! Roar! Roar!" After shouting three times, the centaurs, together with Rota, began their charge towards the town of Calysop.

Chapter Thirteen - Centaur

Standing inside the lord's mansion, Lu Ming could feel the earth rumbling. The blood in his body gradually began to boil, yearning for a hunt.

As the sound of horses' hooves grew closer, Lu Ming's murderous intent became increasingly uncontrollable.

"Is this... wolf blood?" He murmured to himself, looking at his hands, but his unease was quickly replaced by excitement.

An undead legion thirsting for slaughter, willing to annihilate the Abyss even at the cost of an entire nation. Were they all bloodthirsty from the very beginning? No!

Bang! The gate was smashed open by a centaur, and Lu Ming coldly watched as several centaurs rushed into his mansion.

"Are you Odysseus's new lord?" "Are you the leader of the centaurs?"

Lu Ming and Luo Ta asked each other at the same time.

The two men looked at each other, their eyes gleaming with murderous intent, and both spoke up.

"Fran Undead Legion, Lu Ming the Sword-Biting Wolf!" Embodying the Undead Legion's salute, Lu Ming showed the dying Rota the utmost respect.

On the other side, Rota returned a knightly salute, lest the other party underestimate him: "Centaur Assault Team, Rota Ntu the Runner."

"Are you also a nobleman?" Lu Ming was taken aback when the other party introduced himself, and then asked.

Rota burst into laughter and said to Lu Ming, "Of course! I am the Baron of Muspelheim!"

Hearing this reply, Lu Ming laughed as well: "Is that so? So it's a contest between two barons under the command of two earls. It's a pity I only just arrived in the territory today, otherwise I should have at least a considerable number of guards and militiamen behind me. What a pity! What a pity!"

“Yes! What a pity! I really wanted to have a fair duel with you, instead of leading my men to surround and annihilate you like this.” Rota said with a smile, glancing at his men behind him.

"Really? But I don't think your men are a match for me at all!"

“Indeed! Compared to your sword-biting wolf, my men have almost no chance of winning. But they are not just one person! There are seventy-eight of them!”

"Is that what you think?" Holding the Irithyll Straight Sword and the Peheim Staff, Lu Ming slowly lowered his body, a slight smile playing on his lips that made Rota's heart skip a beat.

Upon seeing the somewhat eerie smile on Lu Ming's face, Rota knew something was wrong. But just as he was about to warn his men, Lu Ming suddenly flashed and appeared in front of one of the two archers he had prepared to use against Lu Ming!

"Nitrocharge!"

After a soft shout, the magic wand in Lu Ming's hand suddenly burst into flames!

Before the centaurs could react, Lu Ming slammed his blazing magic staff down on the centaur archer. In a single blow, the centaur archer was killed!

The flames on the magic wand erupted the instant it struck the centaur, forcefully shattering its internal organs.

"Damn it! Attack!" Seeing that Lu Ming had killed one of his men in an instant, Rota immediately roared at his men.

Immediately, all the centaurs charged towards Lu Ming.

However, the main hall of the baron's manor was rather small, and Rota's men numbered less than nine. This was hardly enough to surround and kill Lu Ming.

Because he knew how to use a bow and arrow, Lu Ming knew how terrifying archers were. Therefore, his primary target was Rota's archers.

But just as he broke through the centaurs and charged toward the centaur archer, Rota suddenly charged at him, forcing him to use high-speed movement to dodge Rota's deadly attack.

"Metallic sound!" Having dodged Rota's attack in an instant, Lu Ming immediately unleashed a series of ear-piercing metallic sounds, causing the centaurs to cover their ears.

"Fran Arrow Rain!" The moment the metallic sound stopped, Lu Ming waved his magic staff and fired a large number of Fran arrows at the centaurs, wounding them all.

"Damn it!" Seeing this, Rota was furious and immediately rushed towards Lu Ming.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Rush!" With a loud roar, Rota stomped the ground and charged towards Lu Ming on a sudden burst of lightning!

"What!?" Lu Ming was startled by the sight of Rota charging towards him with lightning speed. But at the last moment, Lu Ming reacted quickly and dodged Rota's attack with a high-speed movement.

But he dodged it; however, Rota smashed a large hole in the wall of the lord's mansion!

After dodging Rota's attack and avoiding a sword strike from the centaur archer, Lu Ming charged at the archer without saying a word.

"Nitro Charge!" After killing the archer who was shooting a stray arrow with another Nitro Charge, Lu Ming immediately drank a bottle of Elemental Ash to replenish his mana.

"Lightning Release: Wolf Hunter Lightning Arrow!" Just then, Rota, who had smashed through the lord's mansion wall, suddenly unleashed a bolt of lightning that struck Lu Ming squarely in the back!

Amidst the flashes of lightning, Lu Ming coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Forcibly supporting himself with his magic wand, Lu Ming quickly drank a bottle of elemental vial.

After his physical injuries had healed, Lu Ming turned around with a gloomy expression and coldly looked at Rota, who slowly walked out of the large hole in the wall.

"Raster Cannon!" Not intending to give Rota any more chances, Lu Ming directly swallowed all the light in the hall, condensing it into a silver-white projectile! He then fired it at Rota!

"Lightning Release: Extreme Explosive Lightning!" Knowing he was doomed if he got hit, Rota didn't hesitate and unleashed a massive barrage of lightning with both hands, detonating the grating cannon.

The intense light of steel and the fury of thunder collided, instantly unleashing a powerful burst of light and shockwaves that sent Lu Ming, Rota, and the centaurs flying!

"Ah~!" "Ugh~!"

The screams of the centaurs reached Lu Ming and Rota's ears. Clearly, they had either crashed into something or been stabbed by weapons that had been thrown back with them.

When the light faded, only Lu Ming and Luo Ta were able to get up.

Using his magic wand to block his cane, Lu Ming struggled to his feet. He looked at the heavily wounded Rota opposite him, wiping the blood from his mouth with a smile. He laughed, "Rota Entu, I may not know what your ninjutsu is all about, but you must die!"

Rota slowly stood up, glared at Lu Ming with a cold smile, and said angrily, "The one who died was you!"

"Is that so?" After downing the Element Bottle and Element Ash Bottle once more, Lu Ming coldly smiled and picked up his magic wand: "But I still feel that the one who should die is you!"

"Then give it a try!" Rota kicked his hoof and began to slowly form hand seals.

"I swear, I am the mad beast that devours you. Woman trapped in the Abyss, can you hear my call! Soul eyes confined within crystal amber, drawn here by this karmic entanglement! Yusaha Sachi! Forsake the Abyss Crystal Amber!" As the incantation of the summoning spell was chanted, a phantom image of a woman hidden beneath a black robe appeared beside Lu Ming. But even the black robe could not conceal the eye emitting a ghostly blue light.

Crystals formed at the tip of the magic wand, emitting the same light as the crystalline amber eyes beneath the woman's illusory black robe.

Meanwhile, Rota had also completed the hand seals and was surrounded by lightning.

"Crystal Soul Gun!"

"Lightning Release: Thunder Rampage!"

Lu Ming and the phantom simultaneously unleashed their Crystal Soul Spears, shooting towards Rota. Two enormous crystal cones shot straight at Rota's towering figure, determined to tear him apart!

Rota also unleashed countless bolts of lightning at Lu Ming and the two crystal soul spears!

Unfortunately, while Rota's ninjutsu was powerful, it couldn't compare to the terror of the Crystal Soul Spear! The lightning net was easily breached, and two Crystal Soul Spears struck Rota's body viciously, leaving indelible and terrifying wounds in an instant! His entire upper body was even blasted apart!

"I told you, you would die!" After drinking the last of the elemental ash bottle in one gulp, suppressing the pain in his body, Lu Ming laughed.

-----------------------------------

Just as Lu Ming and Rota were fighting, and Lu Ming ultimately killed Rota, Sham, single-handedly, slaughtered Rota's remaining sixty-odd henchmen, leaving only one alive!

In the past, Sham might not have been able to defeat so many people. But with the Evil Pulse, a skill that doesn't consume any Qi, she's now capable of overwhelming those centaurs!

Furthermore, compared to other swordsmen like Ricard and Erebus, Sham is already close to becoming a fourth-tier swordsmanship master! So it's not surprising that he has such strength and achievements.

"Speak! Who ordered you to attack Odysseus?" Sham asked menacingly, holding his sword to the neck of the last centaur.

Perhaps intimidated by Sham's previous fighting prowess, the centaur immediately replied, "It is Count Kekula of Muspelheim!"

The centaurs' answer was so direct that Sham could hardly believe it. But these centaurs were, in the end, just bandits manipulated by the nobles of Muspelheim, and they had no idea what loyalty was.

"Besides that guy who went into the lord's manor before, do you have any other leaders?" Knowing that these centaurs had no loyalty research, Sham immediately asked again.

"Besides the second-in-command, Rota, we also have a viscount as the head of the household. It's just that he rarely shows up in person."

"Viscount?"

"Yes! Viscount of Muspelheim. The title was bestowed upon him personally by the Earl."

"That's impossible! Every nobleman leaves a record with his grand duke when he is granted a fief. But in Agamemnon, no nobleman knows that Muspelheim has such a centaur noble!"

"Our leader was secretly appointed by the Earl. The Grand Duke knows this too! He just hasn't made it public!"

Chapter Fourteen - The Noble Plan and the Gloomy Flower

"In other words, our Grand Duke knows about these centaurs. He just enjoys watching his two counts fight it out, so he stands by and lets them fight like barons to see which count is more suitable to participate in one of his plans?"

"Yes."

Because the lord's manor was destroyed, it would take a long time to repair it. So Lu Ming and his group stayed at the home of a wealthy man who had moved out overnight after learning that a large number of centaurs had been killed and fearing retaliation from the remaining centaurs.

After listening to Sham interrogate the centaur and obtaining the information, Lu Ming fell into deep thought.

Lu Ming and the others did not know what the Grand Duke's plan was. But one thing Lu Ming and Sham were very clear about was that the Grand Duke and most of the nobles of Erebus were involved in the otherworldly summoning plan for Amani, the illegitimate son of the royal family.

According to Sham, Amani's goal, like that of Yusaha, is to summon mages from another world to establish his own magic academy and prove his abilities. So what are the other nobles after?

Army? Weapons? Magic? Or miracles and spells?

Most nobles are greedy. They only know how to take without giving back.

So their joining must be for someone or something that would greatly benefit them. Soon, a very bad possibility appeared in Lu Ming's mind.

Is it possible that Grand Duke Hedist wanted to overthrow the rule of the Unos royal family and thus implied that the nobles of Muspelheim and Niflheim would participate in the plan to summon from another world?

After much thought, Lu Ming realized that this was the most likely possibility, while the other possibilities lacked direct evidence to increase their likelihood. However, if this were true, then Yusaha and Amani, who wanted to prove themselves by establishing a magic academy based on these five plans, would be utterly pathetic.

"As expected, the games played among nobles are far too dark..."

-----------------------------------

Early the next morning, a centaur galloped down the main road of Muspelheim and delivered a letter to Jason, the provincial capital of Muspelheim.

Upon seeing it, Jason's guards secretly carried it through a hidden passage to the lord's manor. There, the centaur met Dar Cacalo, the lord of Muspelheim.

"My lord, this is what the Viscount asked me to deliver." After bowing respectfully, the centaur handed the letter to Count Kakaro.

"Go down!"

"Yes, my lord." Upon hearing Count Kakaro's order to step back, the centaur immediately bowed again and backed away from the Count's room.

Watching the rugged-looking centaur leave his room, Count Kakaro casually opened the letter.

"Your Majesty, I am Ahathor K, captain of the Centaur Assault Team. I sent this message to you because our hunt for Odysseus's new lord has been unsuccessful. We failed to kill a single person, at the cost of half our men's lives. It is a profound disgrace. Please give us another chance, so we can prove that your support has not been in vain."

"Heh! It didn't work out?" Count Kakaro laughed after reading the letter. It was as if he didn't care at all about the centaurs' defeat.

Smiling, after a moment of quiet contemplation, Count Kakaro summoned a servant and instructed him to tell the centaur who had delivered the message that he felt no anger whatsoever at their defeat. Given the reputation of the Sword-Biting Wolves, their failure was perfectly normal. There was no need to continue fighting that vicious wolf.

However, was he truly indifferent? Yes, he genuinely didn't care whether the centaurs could successfully hunt down Lu Ming. This was because these centaurs were merely a minor, insignificant move, incapable of affecting the overall situation.

Moreover, and most importantly, he didn't care whether the centaurs lived or died.
