chapter-1515
Castor's mind cleared a little bit after hearing the question. He realized that there was a chance for him to keep his life. His answer would decide whether he would be killed or not. He smiled, looking into Tang Shaoyang's eyes.
"You should not ask what's for you, but what's the consequence of killing me instead! You have killed someone from the White Mystery, and you are in a war against Vigamaur… ARRGGGHHHH!"
Before he could finish his word, he screamed at the top of his lungs. It was one of the most effective skills for torture, Slayer Touch.
Castor felt like his brain was getting crushed, mashed. The feeling was too surreal, the pain he never felt before. It was more painful than getting his wrist cut. It was just three seconds, but it felt like more than half an hour.
His breathing ragged after that, his eyes red, wide open. His eyes showed fear as he looked at Tang Shaoyang. For someone like him who had experienced many battles, he never felt such pain. The pain terrified him."What did you do?" He asked, curious, and yet his voice trembled.
"I have wiped out The Sorc Clan, I am fighting Vigamaur Dgaror right now, and I killed someone from White Mystery. Do you think I care about where you come from?" Tang Shaoyang ignored the question. He guessed this big bull was trying to intimidate him just like what Eson did before and any others.
"If you have nothing for me, then I will take your body. A God Rank's body is a good material," He drew Nightfall.
"Anything! What do you want? I will give you anything!" That immediately came out from Castor's lip. As long as he had a chance to come back alive, then he would fight for it.
"First, transfer all your points to me." That was the first thing he asked.
Castor canceled his transformation to show his sincerity that he would not try to fight back. He then transferred the point to Tang Shaoyang willingly, all of them. The point was nothing compared to his life, and he could them back.
"Second, give me all your artifacts,"Castor hesitated when he heard the second condition. The artifact was important for him to continue the trial. Especially the ones he brought from his family's treasury. But he had no choice but to give up everything. What was the point of those artifacts if he could not keep his life?
He poured everything in his inventory for Tang Shaoyang. At the same time, he secretly observed Tang Shaoyang's expression. Looking at the satisfied expression on Tang Shaoyang's face, he was relieved deep inside.
'What will he ask next?' Castor hoped Tang Shaoyang would not rob his money as well. The money was for him to continue the trial. He could buy his equipment to continue the trial, albeit with worse equipment. His money was safe, but he never thought Tang Shaoyang would ask for something else, something that was more important than his artifact and money.
"Third, I want your bloodline. You have three days to get me your bloodline."
Abyssal Minotaur was one of the unique bloodlines in his family. Even not all his family members had the same bloodline because of how hard it was to obtain it. Thankfully, he managed to awaken his bloodline. There was a chance for a direct descendant to awaken the same bloodline. He was one of the lucky ones to awaken the bloodline naturally.
"I don't think that will be possible. I don't have one on me, and I can't return home to retrieve the bloodline during the trial," The third condition was unreasonable. It was not like he would carry one of the bloodlines all the time. On top of that, only the family head who held the bloodline was his grandfather.
"Then give me something of the same value as your bloodline. I think Cladeos Emporium has some bloodlines. Why don't you use your faction's influence?" Tang Shaoyang smiled. That was his original aim. He knew Castor did not have the bloodline, but he could get something else. This guy tried to use his faction's influence on him earlier. Now he gave Castor the chance to use his faction's influence.
"You have three days. Get someone to deliver the bloodline, and you will be free."
Castor realized that was Tang Shaoyang's goal from the start. He asked the trial point then all his equipment and artifacts. With nothing on him, it would be hard for him to return on his own. About fighting back? Even with his artifacts, he could not win, let alone now.
"I…" He hesitated for a moment, but then he let out a sigh, "I will message someone I know to bring the item."
"You made the right decision." Tang Shaoyang smiled.

Amos was relaxing in his office, humming. He did not take Tang Shaoyang's threat seriously. In his eyes, Tang Shaoyang was like a bug that he would get rid of eventually. There was no need for him to risk losing his Administrator Class. He would get rid of Tang Shaoyang in the city defense. That was his plan all along.
Taking half of Tang Shaoyang's point was just to provoke Tang Shaoyang. He hoped the young man would act impulsively and attack him inside the city. If that happened, he had the justification to make a move. But that small trick did not work.
The sound of his door opening disturbed his time. He opened his eyes with a frown on his forehead. It was one of his subordinates, Admin Helper, he put to watched Tang Shaoyang's movement.
"You better have a good report for disturbing me at this time!"
The man bowed his head, "A few minutes ago, your juniors were heading out to the west. All of them except for three, Tiyana, Niere, and Gerda. This might be a coincidence, but Tang Shaoyang went to the west earlier."
Amos raised his right eyebrow, "Do they have a conflict with Tang Shaoyang?"
"There's nothing that I know of. But maybe Tang Shaoyang has found out about your faction and targeted them." That was merely speculation, but that made sense.
