Chapter 843
843 Tle Me Up
Dalton looked down at him and raised his eyebrow slightly. “Do I look like I’m dumb?”
Sothoth didn’t know why Dalton would ask him such a question. He continued to lie on the floor. He did
not dare to move.
The crow continued to caw as if to say, “My lord, you’re the most brilliant man across the universe. No one can compare with your intelligence!”
The crow’s flattery was astounding.
Dalton asked slowly, “Then why is it still trying to lie to me?”
Sothoth trembled. He looked up and noticed that the lightning was about to strike him. He immediately shouted, “My lord , please listen to what I have to say. I–I was forced by the humans to come out on earth.
“They kept discharging waste into my waters and disturbing my peace. I had no choice but to come up as
a human. Someone had summoned me onto land to defeat you. I’m telling the truth!”
Dalton’s eyes darkened, and it looked like he did not hear a word Sothoth had said.
“Someone had summoned you to defeat me?”
Dalton raised his leg and smirked. He seemed to be praising Sothoth as he said, “You’re quite brave.”
Sothoth immediately trembled in fear as he watched Dalton. “I don’t think that person wanted to defeat you. They just wanted to ruin your human body.”
That person must be seeking death. How dare they try to harm Dalton, the overlord?
If he knew the overlord had awakened and had morphed into a human, he would have much rather
continue his spiritual practice for another 1000 years than do such a thing!
But something seemed off. How was he still unable to sense the overlord’s aura?
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have acted so impulsively by attacking Dalton!
“Since you’ve received their offerings, you should help finish the job.
Then, Dalton threw Sothoth his umbrella and held his hands out. He ordered, “Tie me up, and take me
away . ”
Sothoth and the crow were speechless.
What was happening? Could Dalton hear himself?
He would be crazy to do such a thing! How could he tie Dalton up and take him away?
Sothoth said carefully, “I–I don’t think that’s a good idea, sir.”
He didn’t even dare to get up now! He was still crawling on the floor.
Dalton stood in the rain and said impassively, “What’s not good about it? Tie me up, and take my umbrella.
849 Tie Me Up
Sothoth turned to the crow for help. He did not dare to do such a thing! He lived in a dark and gloomy place. It wasn’t suitable for an overlord like Dalton to be there.
“Are you going to make me stand in the rain like this?” Dalton lowered his voice.
There was a timeless elegance in his tone, but there was also an underlying sense of danger within. “If you don’t start moving, I’ll pull all of your bones out.”
Sothoth immediately got up and tied the rope around Dalton’s hands. Then, he quickly picked up Dalton’s umbrella and covered Dalton!
“A–Are you satisfied now, sir?” Sothoth’s voice was soft, while his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Dalton nodded. He seemed to have thought of something as he fiddled with his scarlet rosary bracelet.” Leave a small trail to your place with your scent, starting with this place.”
“What?” Sothoth was confused. Why did he need to leave his scent here?
Dalton looked at him like he was an idiot and simply gave him some more specific instructions. “Make it
obvious and easier for someone to find us.”
Wait a minute, who was going to look for them? Sothoth looked around the alleyway dazedly. But since it
was Dalton’s orders, he would definitely execute them properly.
He wanted nothing more but for someone to quickly find Dalton. He was petrified that Dalton would cook
him in a fit of anger!
If that happened, turning back into a snake would be a faraway dream, let alone a dragon!
The crow understood Dalton’s plan. He walked over diligently and said, “Sir, don’t worry. She will definitely worry about you and come to look for you now since you’re currently weak at the moment.”
The crow’s voice wasn’t shrill, and it was loud and clear.
