Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang was dumbfounded when he heard that from Liliana. Not only she was the spirit that did not want to be a spirit, but her regret was also kinda weird yet understandable at the same time. Then he realized why Liliana did not want to be a spirit anymore. Because she could never achieve what she desired in the spirit form.

"That's your regret?" He blurted out.

"Yes," Liliana replied, "I can't conceive a child if I am a spirit. So there's no use being a spirit anymore. Do you know how to return me to my original form before I become a spirit?"

"Your original form? What's your original form?" The conversation was getting weirder as they continued the talk.

"I don't know," Liliana shook her head.

"How do I revert you to your original form if you also don't know your original form? Moreover, I haven't died yet so I don't have the answer… Wait, why would I continue the conversation," Tang Shaoyang shook his head while rubbing his forehead with his left hand. The solution was easy, he just needed to contract her and resurrect her when he got the skill to revive the spirit. That way he could revert her into a human instead of an unknown "Original Form".

"Actually, I indeed have a way to revert you to your original form, a living human. We can establish the contract and I will revive you when I get the skill, how does that sound?" Tang Shaoyang smiled at the girl.

"Revive me? That kind of skill exists?" Liliana questioned doubtfully, "But if that skill exists, Rosalie should have revived me by now. That girl owes me her life, so she should at least do that much," she added with a mumble.

"I don't know, but you can talk with the spirits that come up with that conclusion. They are in my spiritual space right," Tang Shaoyang replied honestly. The one who came up with the theory that the spirits could be revived was Zaneos and Zowen, "However, there's a skill that can resurrect the dead, and I have resurrected one person from the dead. I know you might not believe me since I can't give you any proof,"

Sure enough, Liliana did not believe him. It was clear on her face that she did not believe him. But he could not do anything about it. It was understandable. If he was on her shoe, he would have the same reaction. He could not blame her for that kind of reaction.

"Oh, I have a way to kill you actually. I can sacrifice you for levels… Wait, I can't get any level from sacrificing Grade B+ Spirit. Then let's make a deal instead. You will be my contracted spirit for twenty years and I will find a way to revert you to your "original form". We have twenty years to figure out what your original form is," Tang Shaoyang just made it simple and quick. Once she met with Rosalie and other spirits, she would change her mind anyway.

"Then let's do it with that instead," Liliana agreed with the deal, and a magical circle formed on her forehead. Tang Shaoyang approached her and put his hand on the magical circle.

[You have established a contract with Grade B+ Spirit, Liliana the Crimson General!]

Liliana turned into a red mist and entered his forehead. It did not take long before he heard the gasp of shock from Liliana and cheers from Rosalie. He was not clear about their relationships, but he would know it soon. He then proceeded with the next summoning.

There were 6735 knights with most of them around level 400ish to 500ish. He would split them for two summonings instead of summoning one strong spirit, "6735 corpses, so if I divide that by two…" Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brows. He could not get the exact result, "Nah, whatever. I will use 3000 knights for the first summoning, and I will use the remaining corpse for the last summoning,"

[You have summoned Grade B Spirit, Palmer the Elemental Wind Knight!]

….

[You have established a contract with Grade B Spirit, Palmer, the Elemental Wind Knight!]

….

[You have summoned Grade B Spirit, Pierson the Earth Elemental Knight!]

….

[You have established a contract with Grade B Spirit, Pierson the Earth Elemental Knight!]

….

Sacrificing 3000 knights and 3735 knights were the same. Despite the difference in sacrifice, he summoned the same grade spirits. After everything was done, Tang Shaoyang returned to the area where the surrendered knights were doing a mass signing slave contract.

"I think we will have enough force to face the Gator Tribe… No, I will not bring them to fight against the Gator Tribe," Tang Shaoyang muttered as he scanned the knights. He had 3266 slave knights now. That would be an additional force for him to fight the Beast Coven, "As for the Gator Tribe, I will face them alone. I need to reach level 1000, killing the Myth Rank and the Epic Ranks of the Gator Tribe might help me to reach level 1000,"

"Selena! Ashley! I am going back to the Gigante Forest now. Do you want to stay here or do you want to follow me?" Tang Shaoyang walked toward the two girls who were helping the three old men who were being overwhelmed by over three thousand knights.

Selena wanted to follow Tang Shaoyang but she did not immediately reply as she looked toward Ashley. She wanted to stay with Ashley for now as the female knight was mentally unstable. She felt that she needed to stay next to her to support Ashley to overcome the cruel fact about her father.

"Can I stay here? I need some time to calm myself down. I don't think I can be a help for you with my current condition," Ashley forced a smile as she replied.

"I am fine with that. I plan to fight the Gator Tribe alone since all my spirits have returned. You can take your time, and you can lead these knights to our location later," Tang Shaoyang then looked toward Selena, "If you want to stay here with Ashley, just stay. I don't plan to take the Gator Tribe as my subordinate. I will use them as a stepping to reach Epic Rank,"

"What about us?" Tristan paused what he was doing and approached Tang Shaoyang to ask for further instruction.

"Finish the contract and follow me to the Gigante Forest afterward. Ashley will lead you to my location," Tang Shaoyang then remembered something else, "I also brought my knights. Help them and their families to settle up in the town as well…" He paused as he remembered the newly surrendered knights had their family too, "No, I have a new task for you guys before entering the Gigante Forest. I want you guys to bring these knight's families safely to the town as well. We can't let their families stay in the enemy's territory,"

Tristan was surprised that Tang Shaoyang was paying attention to these knights. They were slaves to him in exchange for their lives to be spared yet his Lord still thought of their families as well.

"I understand, My Lord. I will do as you instruct us, and we will soon join you in your campaign to conquer the Gigante Forest," Tristan bowed. As he bowed, a strong gust of wind hit him. He looked up, his Lord's figure disappeared into the sky.
