126: Lady Snake
Chapter 126: Spirit Snake Madam
The black-robed person removed her hood, revealing a captivating and beautiful face. She was a very classic Toya beauty.
Her name is Victoria, a member of the Toya Empire Royal Family, a leading figure of the left-wing faction, advocating for radical means to achieve her goals.
Victoria has been lurking in the Emilia Imperial Capital for over a year, constantly trying to assassinate Elizabeth.
In recent years, Elizabeth has emerged in the Northern regions like a dazzling star, attracting the attention of many important figures.
Elizabeth's talent for governing is the highest Amyria has seen in a thousand years. Although she is only a nineteen-year-old girl, the things she has done since ascending the throne have been increasingly shrewd.
Issuing national policies, rectifying the market, actively engaging in diplomacy, maneuvering between various political parties... the Aimiya Empire's national strength is visibly growing stronger.
This made the ambitious Toya Empire, which dreams of unifying the Northern regions, very uneasy. They certainly did not want their neighboring country to prosper.
In fact, the plan to assassinate Elizabeth began two years ago, but all dozen attempts ended in failure.
Cecilia's perfect security work was one reason, but more importantly, the Amiya Imperial Palace was filled with numerous barriers, making it difficult for assassins to succeed.
If Elizabeth always stayed in the Royal Palace, the Toya Empire truly wouldn't know how to proceed.
It wasn't until recently that Victoria received information from a Royal Palace informant saying that Elizabeth might participate in the Underground City Championship, disguised as an adventurer.
"I thought you were so perfect, Elizabeth, but it turns out you're just a girl with a playful streak!"
Although her tone was dismissive, Victoria was only 21 years old. However, her physical development was excellent, and her mature demeanor made her look more like a voluptuous beauty in her thirties.
"Nate Team... Hmph, what a stupid name, just as stupid as your reckless actions this time!"
Saying this, Victoria put on her black hood and said confidently, "Elizabeth, you are bound to be buried in the Underground City!"
...
At the same time, in front of the BOSS room on the first floor of the Underground City, Dick and his group stood still.
In front of them was a huge wooden door with intricate patterns, standing a full hundred meters tall. It was clearly not designed for humans, but for some kind of enormous Beast.
"C-Captain, are we really going in to find Spirit Snake Madam? She likes peace and quiet on weekdays, she doesn't like being disturbed..."
Xiao Nai's legs were already trembling. She was naturally timid and had always avoided Beasts when adventuring in the Underground City, but now she was standing in front of the BOSS room door.
"If you're scared, you can wait for me outside. It won't take long anyway."
"Dick, it's the height of summer in June. Spirit Snake Madam's estrus period is still six months away..." Cecilia advised.
"Don't worry," Dick smiled, "She should welcome me."
Hearing Dick's incredibly confident words, Elizabeth behind him couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "That's a Level 58 Beast, you know, Dick! You need to think carefully!"
Although Dick had a wide range of skills, in areas such as sword techniques, forging, talismans, combat, Exorcism, Exorcism, and magic arrays... wait, that seems a bit too much.
But Elizabeth had never heard that Dick was also skilled in Beast taming, and he was facing a Level 58 Beast!
"Dick, I know you're capable, but I have to tell you, over the past few hundred years, there have been many Beast tamers who set their sights on Spirit Snake Madam, but they all failed!"
Elizabeth said earnestly, "Once, there was a Level 60 Beast tamer who targeted Spirit Snake Madam, and then..."
"And then he was eaten because he was too ugly." Dick finished before Elizabeth could.
This happened ten years ago. That Level 60 Beast tamer was from abroad, and his death caused a sensation throughout the Aimiya Empire at the time. To this day, it's still a topic of conversation among adventurers after meals.
So many years have passed, and too many people have tried to control Spirit Snake Madam and sign a Beast contract with her. After all, she can be considered a top-tier Beast.
High level, strong power, top-tier appearance, great figure, Spirit Snake Madam is almost the dream Beast in the eyes of Beast tamers, of course... mostly male Beast tamers.
Unfortunately, Spirit Snake Madam has gained intelligence. She understands clearly in her heart and doesn't want to be enslaved by anyone.
"But I'm not going to try and control her, I'm just going to friendly ask her for a small favor."
Dick shook his head. He never had that idea. Beast taming was a troublesome business.
Moreover, this Spirit Snake Madam, she neither has divine Beast bloodline nor super talent. Even if she was given away for free, he might not necessarily want her.
Dick placed his hand on the door and injected his magic power into it. This was a form of "knocking."
Soon, the ground began to vibrate violently. Dick's "knocking" clearly awakened Spirit Snake Madam. The people behind him instinctively retreated, their faces tense.
Donald had already taken down the longbow from his back, drawn the string fully, and his whole body's magic power was ready, prepared to unleash a powerful arrow technique at any moment.
Cecilia held Elizabeth's hand, ready to slip into the shadows and run away at any time.
Mina and Alice were very obedient. Although they felt fear, they still followed closely behind Dick.
Kun had an expectant look, hoping Dick would pay the price for his arrogance, hoping Dick would die so he could regain his freedom.
After over ten seconds of vibration, the massive door slowly opened, and a terrifying aura permeated out. Everyone had already missed the best opportunity to escape.
Upon entering, they saw a grand hall. Row after row of huge stone pillars were neatly arranged, and there were many expensive furniture pieces on the smooth stone floor.
Compared to a room where a Beast BOSS lives, this place looked more like a female's room with a "rich" sense of life.
"Oh~ Where did this little handsome guy come from? Are you afraid sister is lonely, and specially came to comfort sister?"
A voice as soft as cotton candy came, sweet and coquettish, causing hearts to tremble.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice. They didn't see a terrifying snake body thousands of meters long. All they saw was a voluptuous woman wearing a thin black gauze dress.
She sat on the throne at the end of the hall's steps, wearing revealing leather clothing, high heels, with her curly hair cascading down, casting a seductive gaze.
This was Spirit Snake Madam, a Level 58 Beast who had taken human form, but she looked like the top courtesan in a Courtesan House.
Spirit Snake Madam's gaze was explicit, directly appraising Dick, from top to bottom, from left to bottom, from right to bottom.
Soon, she covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "Little brother is young, yet possesses such a fine tool. It's just that the shape is a bit wild, too aggressive..."
Listening to Spirit Snake Madam's evaluation, everyone reacted differently.
Experienced individuals like Mina, Alice, and Xiao Nai blushed, while those without experience like Elizabeth and Cecilia didn't understand.
Spirit Snake Madam's reaction was within Dick's expectations. His charm Beast physique indeed had a strong attraction to her, even though she was not in her estrus period at this time.
Dick knew that the Demon King physique's attraction to Beasts was a universal goodwill that could be converted into various desires.
For low-level Beasts, it was simple appetite, while for the high-level Spirit Snake Madam, it was sexual desire.
Spirit Snake Madam had gained intelligence, which meant she was a Beast who had read books, a cultured Beast, who could correctly convert this attraction into goodwill and communicate with Dick.
