Chapter 140

Although the Slo family still had two thousand private troops, one thousand were patrolling around the territory and could not be recalled in a short time.

As for more warriors, they needed time to recruit and arm; now there wasn't even enough time to recall the private troops, so how could they be in time!

These one thousand warriors were all guarding the castle walls, and facing the two thousand Winged One warriors in the sky, they had no sense of security at all!

Clearly, the news that those three thousand warriors had been killed in one minute had already spread through some unknown means!

Moreover, the opponent could fly, so these walls were of no use at all!

A middle-aged man dressed in exquisite clothing waited on the platform on the second floor of the castle. Seeing Sister Sister Mengying and Mia arrive, this middle-aged man said:

"Respected Mage, Count Slo feels deep regret for his previous behavior and hopes to reconcile with the Flame Kingdom. Please feel free to make any demands; gold coins, territory, population—we can satisfy them all."

Sister Sister Mengying glanced at him and asked indifferently: "Are you Count Slo?"

"I am Count Slo!"

The old Count walked out and said: "The Slo family is willing to offer half of its wealth, wealth worth over ten million gold coins, as an apology to the Flame Kingdom. In addition, the Slo family can also sell all the Flame Kingdom's God Beans and God Yams on their behalf. We don't want a single cent of profit; within one year, I can guarantee to sell your country's God Beans to no fewer than four kingdoms!"

Sister Sister Mengying felt a stir in her heart when she heard his conditions.

The old Count saw that Sister Sister Mengying seemed moved and struck while the iron was hot: "The two of you have traveled a long way; why not come into the hall to talk? If the two of you are not satisfied with the conditions, feel free to bring them up; our Slo family will definitely do our best to satisfy you!"

"The two of you have traveled a long way; why not come into the hall to talk? If the two of you are not satisfied with the conditions, feel free to bring them up; our Slo family will definitely do our best to satisfy you!"

The old Count made an inviting gesture.

Mia cast her gaze toward Sister Sister Mengying.

Then she quietly tugged at Sister Sister Mengying's sleeve.

Opposite them, the old Count was also surprised by their youth.

Sister Sister Mengying looked to be only in her teens or twenties, yet she was a Great Archmage!

Such a young Great Archmage—this magic talent was probably terrifying!

Even more terrifying than the magic talent of the Sixth Rank Oliver, who was in his thirties!

Such a mage was probably a favorite of the gods, right?

Thinking of this, the old Count couldn't help but feel some pleasure.

To have such a young, such a genius Great Archmage accompany an old man like him to the grave—he was dying for a worthy cause!

What gave him even more pleasure was that now, there was more than just one Great Archmage accompanying him to the grave!

If he blasted such a terrifyingly talented Great Archmage to death, that Flame Kingdom definitely wouldn't let it go, right?

In the old Count's deduction, the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom was about to face an attack from the Horton Kingdom. Now, as long as he killed the Flame Kingdom's Great Archmage with such terrifying magic talent, there would be one more country attacking the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom: the Flame Kingdom!

Since the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom's church and royal family had abandoned the Slo family, the old Count would use this method to drag the entire Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom to the grave with him!

This was the real reason why the old Count was unwilling to surrender!

If he surrendered, his reputation in the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom would plummet, his power would be suppressed, and he would have to pay a large amount of wealth to the Flame Kingdom; it could be said that the Slo family would decline from then on!

It would be better not to surrender, to pull off something big, and tell the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom that he, Count Slo, was not someone to be trifled with!

Now, as long as the two people in front of him entered the Golden Hall with him, his goal would have been achieved!

Great Archmage, dead!

Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom, dead!

He had dragged a genius and an entire kingdom to the grave with him!

In front of the old Count, Sister Sister Mengying looked at him calmly, and then spat out one word:

"Good!"

Hearing Sister Sister Mengying agree, even as experienced as he was, the old Count couldn't help but flash a hint of joy in his eyes.

Sure enough, his promise of so many benefits had moved these two people from the Flame Kingdom.

Even a Great Archmage would still die from greed!

The old Count couldn't help but feel some contempt.

However, he hid it well; as experienced as he was, he could naturally ensure that no expression appeared on his face!

The old Count still maintained the posture of a defeated person:

"Please follow me, the two of you."

After speaking, he walked slowly toward the gate.

This platform led precisely to the Golden Hall.

That was the most luxuriously decorated place in the entire castle.

The walls of the entire hall had a layer of gold; this gold was not paint, but real gold!

This was also where the Slo family received guests!

However, Count Slo had many enemies, so in his early years, he had left a backup plan, spending over a million gold coins to buy a Forbidden Spell magic array.

The power of the magic array was quite terrifying; the only drawback was that it only took effect in a fixed position and required a large amount of magic stones to maintain.

Today, it finally came in handy!

After the old Count walked to the door, he made a "please" gesture:

"Please enter, the two of you."

Sister Sister Mengying walked slowly to the gate of the Golden Hall.

This gate was also made entirely of gold.

Even in the City of Miracles, there was no hall as luxurious as this Golden Hall.

This Golden Hall used gold to create an unparalleled sense of luxury; everywhere one looked, there were pillars cast in gold, and the door frames and even window frames were gold. In the Continent of Gods, this was the symbol of wealth!

This hall probably required at least ten tons of gold to build.

That was the weight of one million gold coins!

Combined with the Forbidden Spell magic array inside, the money spent on this Golden Hall exceeded two million gold coins.

Anyone who had been to this Golden Hall was awed by its luxury!

"Having the Golden Hall as a tomb is not unworthy of your identities," the old Count thought.

Then Sister Sister Mengying arrived outside the gate of the Golden Hall, but she stood outside the gate and hesitated to step in.

The old Count thought she was stunned by the Golden Hall and said: "Everything inside here is made of gold—the tables, chairs, chandeliers, wallpaper, etc. If the Flame Kingdom needs it, we can also build such a Golden Hall for you."

As he spoke, he looked at Sister Sister Mengying, only to find that Sister Sister Mengying had already turned around.

Sister Sister Mengying said: "Mia, let's go."

"Hmm!"

Mia nodded.

The old Count's face changed.

"Did she discover it?"

The old Count was shocked.

The Forbidden Spell magic array was very secretive; there was no reason for a Great Archmage to discover it.

As long as Sister Sister Mengying didn't go in, he had no way to deal with her!

And Sister Sister Mengying leaving meant she had rejected his "surrender".

The old Count completely didn't understand where he had revealed a flaw.

As a great noble with deep shrewdness and calculation, the old Count could be sure that he hadn't revealed any flaws from beginning to end!

He could also be sure that the conditions he offered would definitely move the people of the Flame Kingdom.

But now, Sister Sister Mengying had turned and left.

Then, the old Count saw Sister Sister Mengying and Mia fly into the sky together.

Immediately after, he saw faint red light flashing in the sky.

That was a sign that a high-power magic spell was about to descend.

His heart was shocked!

Sister Sister Mengying not only left but also launched an attack without saying a word!

Sister Sister Mengying's approach was completely beyond his expectations.

At this moment, the old Count, who had remained calm even when three thousand warriors were killed and his family's pillar, Oliver, was killed, and who still thought he was in control of the rhythm and planning to drag Sister Sister Mengying and the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom to the grave, panicked!

Yes, his rhythm was completely ruined!

Yes, his rhythm is completely in shambles!
