LAZARUS REGULUS
Chaptre 412. 21 Treasure of Orion I.

The Alliance of Representatives of the Boreas Empire and the Moonlight Empire, were fighting a spider Mythical Beast with each leg measuring 32 Cm long. The spider let out a mist of poison and acidic liquid from its mouth, revealing countless webs around its territory.

"I didn't know the type, but I thought it was a black lace-weaving spider. Not tarantulas, black widow spiders or any other kind of spider." Aurora says.

"Fuck, why in the fight are you still thinking about that kind of Beast!" Duke Garfield shouted.

"Master, do you know we should know the enemy's information before fighting him?" Aurora asked as she threw a spear into the spider's eye.

The spider cried out in pain, then took out many sticky webs towards Aurora.

"Ice Wind Sword Art!" Asia one of the representatives of the Boreas Empire used her Rapier Skill and cut off all those nets.

"Thank you." Garfield says.

"Be careful." Asia says.

"Frozen Ice Prison." Ariel used her Skill a hundred ice chains to bind the spider's body.

"Alcander, Luciana it's time!" Ariel yelling.

"White Dragon Spear Art!"

"The Blizzard Spear Art!"

Luciana and Alcander used their strongest attacks from above the Spider Beast, a moment later their spears both pierced through the stomach of the Spider Beast and the Spider Beast was cut in half. A green sticky liquid came out from the spider's body.

"The Snow Rose Sword Art!" Brisa, the representative of the Boreas Empire, a beautiful, blue-haired woman, immediately beheaded the spider.

Aurora immediately took out the Beast core in the spider's heart, knowing that the spider Beast's core was worth 1 million points.

"How many people have died?" Alcander asked.

"Alcander didn't die, we only suffered moderate injuries and Brisa was exposed to the spider's venom." Garfield says.

"We have only entered the central region of the Forest and are still far away to the center of the Forest, but we have already met the Black Mother Long Legs. Why would a rare beast like this roam around in the Forest of Artemis, if another group were to find it they would all be killed." Luciana says.

"Luciana, where do you know the name of this Beast?" Alcander asked.

"Urs, who told me. I learned a lot about the types of Beasts from Urs." Luciana replied.

Aurora retrieved the Mythical Beast core from the giant spider Beast's body, then she gazed towards the corpse of the spider. "Luciana, what kind of precious material is this spider Beast corpse?"

"Aurora, just leave this spider corpse, it's too big in size and we still need a storage Artifact to store even more precious Beast materials." Luciana says.

"I see, if we had a very large and extensive storage artifact." Aurora says.

Blue Ice and the other 17 Beast contracts Aurora growling. Alcander and Aurora find out a group of people are going to their place.

"Haha. Looks like we're too late because our target game has been defeated by a group of white-haired foxes." A burly man with long black hair, red eyes, an incision wound on his right cheek burst into laughter. He was Feng Yan the Third Prince of Golden Sun Empire.

"They look like a group of eagles rather than a group of foxes." A half-black and half-white long haired man with purple eyes smiled, he was the Marcel Child Guild Leader of the Adventurers of the 4th Continent.

"Yan, can you shut up? Your words can provoke unnecessary conflict." A black haired handsome man in a tie like a scholar, with red eyes and an extremely gentle gaze said.

"Second brother I understand." Feng Yan said.

That man was Feng Yuwen the Second Prince of Golden Sun Empire. He was the leader of the Golden Sun Empire's Representative and one of the strongest people in the Golden Sun Empire, all of the crowds supporting Feng Yuwen were suited to become Emperor. However Feng Yuwen rejected him because of a

"Princess Luciana, you're prettier than you look in the painting. Are you married? Are you looking for a husband?" Feng Yuwen asked.

"Sir, I already have someone I love." Luciana says.

"Alright I give up, but if you change your mind you can look for me. I'll make you my 100th concubine. As a true man I live for love, there is nothing better than the affection between a man and a woman. Wait, aren't Ariana, Aurora and Brisa, you're so beautiful..."

Feng Yuwen lives to love a woman, he looks like a bastard. But he only loves someone who does not yet have a partner. An eccentric freak man who made all his brothers ashamed because of his brother's already famous nature in the 4 Continents.

"Brother, let me do the talking." A beautiful woman with long black hair, red eyes with an incision scar on her right eye said. She was Feng Jiao the Third Princess of the Golden Sun Empire. She was famous for her beauty, strength and cruelty on the battlefield as a young man.

"All right, I'll be serious. I will not steal the Beast Core from you, but you will have to leave this region as we will hunt in this region. If you refuse, I will use force to drive you out." Feng Yuwen let out a bloodthirsty aura.

"Do you think we're afraid of you!" Alcander gave off a bloodthirsty aura that was as great as Feng Yuwen.

"Shorror." Feng Jiao said.

A white-colored wolf Mythical Beast with golden runes on its body and silver eyes dashed beside Feng Jiao.

"Celestial Silver Wind Fenrir." Inner Ariana.

Syaoran gazed towards the depths of the Forest, a moment later Sebastian with the Moonlight Empire Representatives and the Nightmare Empire approaching them.

"Haha. Can we get in the fight?" Sebastian laughing.

"Sebastian, that wolf is on the same level as me. You'll have to raise my pay to deal with it." Beast King Blizzard Lion Blizzard said.

"Blizzard, I paid the rent to Urs 1 billion gold coins. I also pay you with Beast cores and herbs worth 1 billion Gold Coins, but I will raise your pay of 4 billion gold coins." Sebastian says.

"I just want that wolf Beast Core as payment." Blizzard smile.

"All right." Sebastian smiled broadly.

The Golden Sun Empire Representative Group and the Continent Adventurers Guild retracted their auras. They knew fighting with the 4 groups of Empire representatives was extremely disadvantageous and the Artemis Hunting Competition had only started for 5 hours.

"Alcander, Sebastian, we're going to back out for now because you know we're fighting it out. Everyone will suffer a great loss." Feng Yuwen and his group stepped away leaving the group of Alcander and Sebastian.

****************

"Sebastian, Lilith, why are you helping me?" Alcander asked.

"Alcander, I'm just fulfilling my promise to Urs." Sebastian answered.

The Blue Claws as well as all the Beast contracts Aurora and Ariana trembling at the sight of Blizzard. They knew Blizzard was a Beast King, a Beast that had a level of 94 or higher.

"Where did you get that Beast King Blizzard Lion?" Aurora asked.

"Haha. I hired Blizzard for 17 days from Urs. Urs told me and my group to help you and Noa when they're in trouble." Sebastian answered.

"Did the black cat rent out the Beast King?" Alcander asked as he widened his eyes.

"The Beast King was so arrogant and arrogant, they would not submit to the humanoid race, unless Urs was their Alpa. Wasn't the winged lion beast Lazarus was carrying a Beast King?"

"Urs, rent out the Beast King to representatives of the Moonlight Empire, the Avalon Empire, the Pendragon Kingdom and the Symphonic Kingdom. I get a rebate so I only pay as much as 1 billion gold coins." Sebastian smiled broadly.

"Stupid, I dare pay 10 billion gold coins even more for a Beast King! Why didn't the black cat tell me that he rented out the Beast King!" Alcander yells.

"You should have rented it 1 week ago. Did Galan's grandfather not tell him that Lazarus was already the ruler of 7 territories? The Emerald Forest, King Forest, Atlanta Forest, Wild Land Forest, Sirius Forest, Cerulean Forest and Helios Mountains were his territory, all the Beast Kings who were there recognized Urs as the Alpa." Sebastian smile.

"How can a human master 7 regions with 7 Beasts that have yet to reach the Mythical Beast realm!" Aurora yells.

"Aurora, you haven't seen the real power of Urs yet and Sebastian do you want to charge for your help?" Alcander asked.

"Urs, just saying that the Moonlight Empire will be the first champion and our Alcander does not need your Beast core because we have already hunted 2 Mythical Beasts and 1 Legendary Beast. It just so happened that the Mythical Beast had a fire element and the two Beasts had just ascended the realm. We're gonna go away from this territory, heal yourself and if you need any help." Sebastian gives the Raegal Earring Artifact and a beacon to Alcander.

"Free, do you know where Urs is?" Luciana asked.

"Urs Group, hunting in the outer region of the Forest of Artemis. They didn't participate in the hunting competition and I found out that he had a goal of entering the Forest of Artemis." Sebastian answered.

"Did he just want to look for herbs and materials? Isn't there still a lot of valuable herbs and materials?" Alcander asked.

"Alcander, I can guess a bit of Urs' goal of taking the Artemis Hunting Competition because we are both sneaky people." Sebastian answered with a subtle smile.

"What is the purpose of Urs?" Alcander asked.

"I think Urs wants to find something very valuable in the Forest of Artemis. It must be worth more than the first prize of the Artemis Hunting Competition." Sebastian answered.

"Exceptionally rare herbs and materials, Nature Treasure or herbs and materials above Mythical rank." Luciana says.

Everyone fell silent, they realized that Lazarus seemed to know the whereabouts of herbs and materials above the Mythical realm. They felt like fools for not knowing the purpose of Lazarus following the Artemis hunting competition before and fighting each other for just a mere Mythical Rank Artifact.

****************

"Will the mountain pass through the valley. The river flows beautifully into the Ocean..." Lazarus sings with passion, and Altair does not know the song Lazarus sings. Altair enjoyed the song Lazarus.

"Urs, why hasn't Albion and the others returned yet?" Altair asked.

"Are you aware of the Moss Rank Mythical Water Dragon, Water Dragon Lily Rank Mythical and Rebirth Water Dragon Fruit Rank Void?" Lazarus asked.

"Water Dragon Moss is useful for skin care, the herb is a rare ingredient and of the best quality as raw materials make ointments and cosmetics. Water Dragon Moss can remove burns and scars within 1 day. Florencia once bought 100 grams of Water Dragon Moss Rank Epic and the price was 100 thousand gold coins. Water Dragon Lily was an herb for making Potions, Elixirs and healing Pills, the Blue Dragon Lily Rank Epic mixed Potion could increase the effects of Healing Potion 10-fold. Rebirth Water Dragon Fruit Rank Legendary is rarer and stronger than Yggdrasil Fruit in its healing effect, I've seen the fruit sell for 100 million gold coins at auction." Altair widened her eyes. "Did you say Rank Mythical and Void?"

"Albion, Winter, Golden Sun and Kai seem to be exploring the river and looking for a cave behind the waterfall. I got this information from someone I know very well and couldn't possibly be wrong." Lazarus smiled.

"Athan, mention the characteristics of the tree, its leaves and fruit. Don't touch that tree, I'm afraid that you found the Fire Poison Rank Legendary tree." Edgard says.

"Athan, tell me your position. We'll be there soon to check it out. If the tree is a Fire Poison don't touch it, your skin will burn and be hard to heal." Ares says.

"The tree is still a small one meter in size hidden in the thickets of grass and large trees. The stem is bright red and looks very striking, the leaves are red and like dancing. There was one oval-red fruit that was red as if it were covered in dragon scales."

"Young Fire Dragon Tree and Rebirth Dragon Fruit!" Everyone is screaming.

"Athan, are there any Beasts guarding the tree?" Lazarus asked.

"There aren't any Beasts in this area. Can I take it?" Ethan asked.

"Athan, you can't take it. I do not believe there is a mature Rebirth Fire Dragon Fruit in the middle of the forest and the wild Beasts do not eat it. Did you see anything weird there?" Lazarus asked.

"I saw many trees with trunks full of thorns with black tips. The tree had fruit like a pumpkin and no birds perched there. That red tree grew in the middle of that terrifying tree." Athan asked.

"Athan don't go near that tree! You must keep your distance from the tree!" Helene yelling.

"Are thorny trees dangerous?" Athan asked.

"The tree was called the Poison Thorn Tree or people dubbed it the Poison Hell Tree!" Helene yelling.

"Fuck!"

Athan and Blue Rose who knew the name of the tree immediately moved away from there to safety. Athan had heard of a very poisonous tree, a tree that shoots many thorns that are very poisonous when touched just a little. The fruit can also explode.

A Legendary realm person could die when struck by those thorns. The tree was nicknamed the Poison Hell Tree was not without reason because it had already claimed many lives in the past.

"Blue Rose, we almost died." Athan says.

"Athan, are trees dangerous?" Blue Rose asked.

"The tree is extremely dangerous, even to a Mythical realm. Remember, if you see the tree, don't try to touch it." Athan answered.

"I understand." Blue Rose nodded.

The Lazarus group got to Athan's place, they saw many Poison Hell Tree trees that were there.

"Athan, are you okay?" Lazarus asked.

"Urs, I'm fine. Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree grew in the middle of the Hell Poison Tree." Athan answered.

"How should we take it?" Cleon asked.

"Do we have to burn the Poison Hell Tree? I heard the Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree can't be burned." Cleon says.

"No, toxic smoke will spread and pollute the Forest of Artemis. Every single piece of the Poison Hell Tree was extremely poisonous." Amelia says.

"I and Ignis had a bad experience of the tree. Ignis and I were once hit by the tree's thorns, even though we were immune to the poison. But our eyes are not immune, we can't see for 1 month." Asterion says.

"I'll take the Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree, I can survive those thorns, by wearing a helmet I can protect my eyes." Ares says.

"Ares, did you forget about Lime?" Lazarus asked.

"Lime!" Lime jumping.

"Lime was a Metal Slime and was immune to poison because they could not feel the stimulation of pain, unless attacked by a Skill element. But Lime was only 20 Cm in size, she couldn't take the tree." Edgard says.

"I'm a big man." Lime said in a hoarse voice like an adult.

Hundreds of Metal Slime came out of the Beast Lazarus storage bracelet, then merged with Lime so that Lime had a height of 15 meters.

"Master, Lime is a big guy. Lime has become strong and can turn into Lava." Lime turned into a Giant Lava Slime, everyone was surprised to see it because a Slime could not do that.

"Lime, why is your voice in your original form so cute." Lazarus smiled.

"Of course." Lime said, then changed again to Metal Slime.

"Everyone step away and use your strongest defensive skill!" Altair ordered.

Lime turned into a Snake Beast, then went to the place of the Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree. He touched the Hell Poison Tree, then the thorns on his trunk exploded as well as the fruit exploded and spouted numerous thorns into the surroundings.

"Gruesome." Cleon says.

"Cleon, those thorns are like needles. I've felt it and pulled out the thorns one by one." Lazarus says.

Lime arrived at the Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree's place.

"Lime dig up the soil, you can't pull it straight out because I'm afraid the stem and the roots are broken." Lazarus says.

"All right." Lime obeyed Lazarus' orders, then dug up his soil and plucked the young Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree from its roots. Lime returned to Lazarus.

"Master, Lime has got it. Lime wants a gift from Master." Lime made a smiling face while giving the tree to Lazarus.

Lazarus gave Lime an ice elemental herbal mound.

"Master, I want iron." Lime says.

"Your mother says you have to eat other elements so you can get stronger. I'll give you 5 Kg of Orichalcum after Artemis' hunting competition ends." Lazarus says.

Lime's body turned into hundreds of Metal Slime, then she shrunk to the original size. "All right." Lime smiled as she ate the ice element herbs.

"Helene what is the price of the Rebirth Fire Dragon Tree at auction?" Lazarus asked.

"5 Billion gold coins. We've covered our losses and I'm confused as to why a Metal Slime can talk." Helene smiled, then looked towards Lime.

"Lime is Greedy Slime." Lazarus answered.

"Is Lime the son of Great Sage Aruru?" Helene asked.

"Did you know about Mother Lime? I accidentally made a contract with Lime." Lazarus answered.

Helene slowly fainted, but Lazarus immediately caught her.

"Helene, what happened to you?" Lazarus asked.

Amelia wanted to give Helene an artificial breath, but she pretended to be dizzy and fell to the ground.

"Ares, Amelia may have been hit by the poisonous spines of the Poison Hell Tree. You need to give Amelia the antidote." Lazarus says.

"All right." Ares answered.

"Helene, as a woman, I will help you." Amelia said using voice transmission.

"Thank you." Helene answered.

Altair, Cleon, Alastair, Athan and Edgard stared at the unconscious Helene on Lazarus' thigh.

"Urs, it looks like Helene needs an artificial breath." Altair said with a reddened face.

"As a real man, I offered to give Helene an artificial breath." Cleon said as he puffed his chest.

"Haha. Are you kidding me? You all have wives and now I'm going to give Helene artificial breath." Athan laughed with a reddened face.

"Old man, I better give Helene an artificial breath because I'm the youngest one here." Alastair says.

Lazarus stared at Ares, wondering why Ares was not interested in Helene and thought Ares did not like women.

"Mr Urs, I'm still a normal guy. I have a lover named Emelie Eternal Frost, she came with Luciana. I love her very much and I plan to marry her after returning from the Artemis Hunting Competition." Ares said with a reddened face.

Lazarus stared at Helene, then pinched both of Helene's cheeks and touched Helene's pink lips. Everyone stared at Lazarus, they were so jealous that Lazarus could play with Helene's face.

"Alright, I'll give you an artificial breath." Lazarus says.

Helene's brows moved slightly, then Lazarus learned that Helene was just pretending.

"I changed my mind. Athan kiss her, I don't want to snatch a girl's first kiss and you've definitely never kissed a woman." Lazarus smiled.

"As you command, sir."

"Urs, I'm fine! I'm just a little tired and want to rest!" Helene yelling.

"Miss, you are a very cunning woman." Lazarus says.

"I'm sorry." Helene smiled brightly.
