Chapter 142

~8 min read 1,527 words

This time, through prayer, Sister Sister Mengying obtained Bursting Fire with one million energy points!

This was equivalent to the Bursting Fire obtained by ten thousand Centaur warriors praying at the same time.

But Bursting Fire with so many energy points, when concentrated, was a different concept from being dispersed into ten thousand parts.

Its power was not the sum of the power of those ten thousand Centaur warriors throwing spears at the same time.

It was more than a thousand times the total power of those ten thousand Centaur warriors throwing spears at the same time!

Dispersion and concentration were completely different.

Just like firecrackers; a small firecracker with only 10 grams of gunpowder couldn't possibly blast a stone to pieces.

Ten thousand such small firecrackers also couldn't blast a stone to pieces.

But if you concentrate the gunpowder from those ten thousand firecrackers and make a 100-kilogram giant firecracker, never mind blasting a stone to pieces—if used correctly, it could even collapse a mountain!

The same principle applied: ten thousand Centaur warriors throwing 100-energy-point Bursting Spears at the castle at the same time could also collapse this huge castle, but at most, only the surface layer would collapse.

But when these energy points were concentrated together, becoming one million energy points of Bursting Fire, combined with Sister Sister Mengying's magic, it only took one strike to blow the castle, which was nearly a kilometer long, into the sky!

This power was not far from a Forbidden Spell!

Therefore, the nobles who came to watch were all stunned by the scene!

The Slo family's castle, which was so large and sturdy, had been blown into the sky.

If it were their castles, which were only a few hundred meters long, or even one or two hundred meters long, wouldn't they be blown into smithereens?

And the opponent only used one strike!

This was the key point!

Destroying such a huge castle in one strike—the strength of that young Great Archmage was simply terrifying.

Some nobles with not-low magic attainments even felt that Sister Sister Mengying's strength had reached the Forbidden Spell level!

"This Flame Kingdom is so terrifying!"

"Yeah, why do I feel that the girl from the Flame Kingdom is probably not a Great Archmage, but a Forbidden Spell Mage? A few months ago, wasn't there a rumor that a Forbidden Spell Mage appeared in the Misty Mountains and burned half the forest? Could it be her?"

A noble came up with a terrifying guess.

"What girl? High-level mages all use magic power to maintain their youth forever. If she really is a Forbidden Spell Mage, how could she be a young girl?"

Another noble said.

Beside these nobles, those noble young ladies really wanted to refute it, because they knew Sister Sister Mengying.

But they didn't have the courage, because if their fathers knew that the terrifying mage who destroyed the Slo family's castle in one strike was the object they had ignorantly provoked before, they might be beaten to death by their fathers!

These noble young ladies were truly scared this time.

Not the superficial fear.

But a chill rising from the bottom of their hearts; the one who was as fat as a pig even had nightmares for several years.

Sister Sister Mengying's power had become an eternal shadow in their hearts that they could never shake off.

The matter of the Slo family being uprooted spread throughout the entire eastern region very quickly.

It caused a huge uproar among the millions of people in the eastern region.

Immediately after, this matter began to spread in even further directions!

The nobles knew first.

Then, the news spread from the nobles to the lower-class commoners.

As for the very top of the kingdom, the royal family and the church, they knew even earlier!

Although the royal family and the church abandoned the Slo family by coincidence.

But they did not give up their attention to this matter.

A unified orc nation appeared east of the mist, calling itself the Flame Kingdom, and this Flame Kingdom also possessed God Beans with astonishing yields!

After the matter of the God Beans was reported, even the people at church headquarters clearly realized its value.

However, the divine power imprint also made even the people at church headquarters helpless.

The church would naturally attach great importance to this matter.

It was just that, for some reason, even though the Flame Kingdom was developing rapidly and might become a threat to the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom in the future, the church and the royal family were unwilling to be enemies with the Flame Kingdom for now!

In the Mist Mountains, two thousand Winged-man warriors flew back.

"Everyone has worked hard, go take a rest. I'll add a chicken leg to your meal tonight!"

Mia said to these Winged-man warriors.

Now, the Flame Kingdom has already begun raising poultry in the forests.

These poultry are mainly chickens and ducks.

Of course, forests rich in medicinal resources are not used for this, as they would be eaten clean by the birds.

Only forests with barren resources are chosen.

After the beastmen moved to live on the plains, the resources in the forests began to flourish.

The number of animals also increased.

However, large-scale farming has not yet begun.

Magic bags cannot hold living creatures for too long; the chickens and ducks currently being raised are those the Winged-men put into sacks and carried back on their backs.

Sister Sister Mengying arrived at the temple, handed the magic bags to some trusted aides, and had them put the wealth obtained from the Sluo family into the national treasury. She then found the fox-girl Sister Qing Ling and told her about the events of this trip.

This trip, because of Sister Sister Mengying's absolute strength, was not too dangerous, except for the old count's conspiracy at the end which almost succeeded.

Of course, "almost" actually means it would never happen!

Because Sister Sister Mengying would never have entered the Golden Hall!

She just wanted to see what kind of tricks the old count was up to!

The fox-girl Sister Qing Ling listened with great interest. After hearing it, she said: "Has no one from the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom intervened yet?"

Sister Sister Mengying shook her head and said: "No, I even deliberately dragged out some time on the road, but there are no existences above the seventh rank in the eastern part of the Duke Duke Xiling Kingdom. It would take quite a while to come from the west, so they might not have made it in time. As for the specifics, we will know once our delegation is sent out."

The fox-girl Sister Qing Ling nodded and said: "Good, the delegation is ready. When will they depart?"

Sister Sister Mengying said: "The day after tomorrow. I'll rest for a day, and it will also give this matter time to ferment."

The fox-girl Sister Qing Ling asked: "Are you going on this trip again?"

Sister Sister Mengying nodded: "Yes, you are the Saintess and also the Queen of the Flame Kingdom; it is not appropriate for you to go. If we let others go, they probably won't be able to observe much."

The fox-girl Sister Qing Ling said: "Sister Sister Sister Mengying, you've worked hard!"

Sister Sister Mengying shook her head and said: "I am very happy to do things for the God."

The fox-girl Sister Qing Ling said: "Sister Sister Sister Mengying, then go and rest, leave the other matters to me."

"Alright!"

Sister Sister Mengying nodded.

The wealth of the Sluo family would take quite some time to inventory.

The fox-girl Sister Qing Ling sent over a hundred fox-girls to handle this task.

Sister Sister Mengying returned to her room in the temple and began to meditate with her eyes closed; for her, meditation is rest.

She is always so diligent!

The grand inventory lasted until the next day before it was finished.

The amount of gold coins owned by the Sluo family was staggering, numbering several million.

These gold coins were 10g each, which adds up to dozens of tons of gold coins!

Besides gold coins, the Sluo family also collected a large amount of exquisite jade, colored glaze, pearls, and other jewelry.

There were also a large number of paintings and calligraphy.

As well as some precious books.

These are also quite valuable on the Continent of Gods.

All the land deeds of the Sluo family were also inside, but after the original owner dies, land deeds can only be left to legal heirs. If there are no legal heirs, they are held in trust by the royal family; they are useless for anyone else to take.

Therefore, these land deeds were directly burned in a fire.

With the Sluo family destroyed, their land would basically be certain to fall into the hands of the royal family and the church.

The disposal of this wealth was simple.

All dozens of tons of gold coins were melted down and recast into the gold coins of the Flame Kingdom.

The paintings, calligraphy, and books were to be collected first.
