Chapter 281

The power of a Demon God?

Tang Zheng was noncommittal.

According to the understanding of the Slane Theocracy and the Dragon Lords, the 7th tier represents the power of the Demon God level.

Strictly speaking.

The Slane Theocracy's "Grand Ritual" can activate 8th-tier magic; this level of ritual generally cannot be used without the support of national-level magic casters.

The Empire's Fluder was unable to activate the Grand Ritual precisely because he had not mastered "Magic Boost."

However, these problems.

Did not exist for Tang Zheng at all; the situation before him was also deliberately disguised by him, making outsiders think that the true activator was the Lizardman Crusch Lulu.

Looking at the group of demi-humans crawling on the ground.

"As assistants, witnessing this level of power is your good fortune." Tang Zheng still spoke sinisterly, his voice not hiding any arrogance or disdain.

Carrying out his disguised image to the end.

This time.

The kings of the few demi-humans did not raise any rebuttal or disrespect in their hearts at all.

Displaying such means.

All indicated that the terrifying human before them indeed had the ability to destroy their entire tribe and race.

The Blue Maggot King and the Pandes Mother were too scared to speak.

"Great human lord,"

And the Demon-Human Na Na Sulini was full of awe and worship, her lower hands supporting the ground, and her upper hands hugging her shoulders on both sides: "We will definitely assist you in completing everything you want to do under your protection."

Tang Zheng nodded lightly.

"The only thing you need to do afterward is to ensure sufficient magic power in your bodies. As long as there is rain in the hilly area."

"I will gather you all again to activate the magic."

Tang Zheng paused when he said this, and there was a hint of warning and reminder in his tone:

"Do not leak what happened today. In addition, facing higher-level magic power might be a good thing for you."

"I also don't want to replace you, right?"

The Blue Maggot King, the Pandes Mother, and the Demon-Human Na Na Sulini lowered their heads in a panic.

For more than a month, the nobles behind the major merchant caravans, although they tacitly did not interfere with each other and even covered for each other.

But such high-frequency transactions.

The surplus wheat, rice, and other crops stored by the nobles involved, large and small, were consumed at an alarming rate.

Even some old and rotten crops were mixed into the traded goods; after all, the low-intelligence Ogres didn't even check.

Not cheating these stupid Ogres would be going against gold coins.

While the nobles, large and small, were making a fortune, they also had to face a brand-new situation, which was that the surplus grain had been exhausted.

Under this situation.

The nobles were not stupid enough to trade all their grain for gold coins, but adopted the method of purchasing grain from the commoners.

This behavior, which seemed to have little impact.

Instead, it indirectly pushed up the price of grain on the market.

Northern Holy Kingdom, Holy Capital, Hoburns.

Inside the royal palace.

In a luxurious and grand room with a relatively strong religious atmosphere and royal style.

A blonde woman in priest robes, dressed in pure white and dotted with blue decorations, sat behind a throne desk carved with exquisite patterns and the royal emblem, watching the letter in her hand.

This blonde woman possessed a face that was both "cute" and "sharp," and her flower-like beautiful face revealed integrity and kindness.

Most eye-catching was that long golden hair; unlike ordinary blonde hair, every strand of hair emitted a more dazzling bright yellow color.

Looking up, there was an inexplicable sense of holiness!

The other party was the first Queen of the Holy Kingdom, Calca Bessarez, who was also rated as the "Treasure of the Holy Kingdom."

Looking at the content of the letter in her hand.

The smile of the Holy Queen Calca, which was called the "Angel's Ring," was gradually disappearing, and anger and shock appeared on her fair face.

"They... how dare they do this!" The Holy Queen Calca said incredulously, her fingers gripping the letter turning white.

"So."

"What exactly happened?"

A brown-haired woman asked suspiciously; the other party possessed equally upright features, but her entire temperament revealed a sense of coldness.

"Heh, heh."

A sneer sounded from the side, and then she said: "Of course, some idiots did some stupid things."

The person who sneered was also a woman; the other party had tea-colored hair, and her face was extremely similar to the brown-haired woman.

It's just that the direction of the corners of her eyes and mouth was slightly different, giving people an insidious temperament.

These two were the "two arms" of the Holy Queen Calca; the brown-haired woman was Remedios, and the tea-haired woman was Kelart.

These two people were not only sisters but also among the most powerful people in the entire Holy Kingdom.

One controlled the Holy Kingdom's strongest legion, the "Paladin Order," known as the strongest Paladin Captain in history, one of the Nine Colors, "White."

One controlled the "Priest Order," the strongest force in the temple, and was also the High Priestess of the temple, the leader of the Priest Order, also known as a genius, and the strongest priest in the surrounding countries on the surface.

The Holy Queen Calca could become the first Queen and sit firmly on the throne even when there were male members in the royal family because she had the support of these sisters.

After the sisters had a simple bickering.

They became quiet again, quietly waiting for the Holy Queen Calca to finish reading the letter.

Kelart crossed her hands over her abdomen; although her movements were elegant, a thoughtful look and an obscure dangerous light appeared in her eyes.

I don't know what countermeasures she was thinking about.

Remedios was much more curious; in her cognition, there were not many things that could make the Holy Queen Calca show a loss of composure.

These letters were brought by her younger sister Kelart, so only she didn't know the content of the letters.

A few minutes passed.

The Holy Queen Calca had already read all the content and information in the letters. The time to simply read the letters actually didn't take that long; the reason she spent more time.

Was obviously thinking about something while reading the letters.

"Here."

The Holy Queen Calca's light blue eyes moved away from the letter, the expression on her face had returned to calm, and she handed the letter to the curious Remedios beside her.

Remedios took the letter to check the content; after just a few glances, an angry look appeared on her features.

"Your Majesty Calca! I'm going to slaughter them!"

Flames seemed to be burning in Remedios's eyes, "How dare they trade with demi-humans... and even trade such important supplies as grain."

"They are crazy!"

If it weren't for the fact that they were in the palace and needed to maintain etiquette in front of Her Majesty Calca, Remedios would have almost roared out.

"These bugs who abandoned the people, violated justice, and forgot the casualties the demi-humans caused to the kingdom!" Remedios gritted her teeth.

"Sister."

Kelart raised her head and looked helplessly at Remedios, who seemed to be about to rush out to kill at any time.

"What do you want to say!" Remedios stared with her eyes.

"These idiots are not in a hurry to be dealt with; they won't be able to run away either." Kelart shook her head gently, her black gaze revealing solemnity:

"The real problem now is not with these idiots."

The Holy Queen Calca nodded and said seriously in a low voice: "Is it what exactly happened in the Abelion Hills?"

"Sure enough."

"Your Majesty Calca, you thought of the same thing as me." Kelart's mouth curled into a smile, and her voice revealed doubt:

"The relationship between the demi-human races in the Abelion Hills and us, needless to say, how could they trade with us humans."

"And it's a race with low intelligence like Ogres. I suspect that something happened in the hilly area."

"In addition, the person behind controlling the Ogres is different from the usual demi-humans. This kind of 'trading' move is not something the demi-humans in the hilly area could think of."

The Holy Queen Calca nodded in agreement with Kelart's series of analyses.

"Based on the current intelligence analysis, the Ogre tribe in the hilly area should have already been unified, trading so much food..."

When Kelart said this, worry appeared in her eyes: "Will the demi-human who rules the Ogres want to start a war?"

"War? We are not afraid of this bunch of guys!" Remedios said coldly.

"No!"

Kelart raised her head and looked at her sister: "I mean, the other party wants to start a war to rule all the demi-humans in the entire hilly area."

Although this possibility is very low and even a bit incredible, given the current situation, this possibility does exist.

Remedios was puzzled; she didn't seem to understand why she should worry about such things. It was a good thing for those demi-humans to fight among themselves.

Only when the demi-humans kill each other will they not pose a threat to their humans.

However.

Both the Holy Queen Calca and Kelart had a hint of concern on their faces.

Collecting grain on a large scale and trading with them humans in a way different from normal demi-human intelligence and problem-solving.

From this series of events, both of them could vaguely feel a certain confidence from the depths of the hills.

The air was slightly quiet.

"We must first determine what exactly happened in the hilly area." The Holy Queen Calca whispered to herself, "Should we send an elite squad to go deep?"
