Chapter 276: Sacred Artifact! Small-Scale Forbidden Spell!

In the crowd, Magus Oliver's eyes narrowed as well!

The strength of these winged warriors had completely exceeded his expectations!

This force of three thousand could annihilate even two thousand archers from a human kingdom with at most only a few hundred casualties.

But Oliver had never imagined they would be defeated so quickly, so thoroughly, so cleanly!

In the blink of an eye, every warrior of the Slo family had been wiped out!

Only a blue-robed civil official with no fighting ability remained!

No one recognized his identity.

But Oliver had no intention of leaving.

He was a Sixth-Rank Magus!

The old steward's words had shown him the hope of inheriting the Earl's vast fortune!

Therefore, he would let these beastmen know what a Magus truly was!

He would also let those around him see that the Slo family—his possible Slo family—must never be offended!

He would even more so let the old Earl see that he could turn the tide!

Oliver took out a magic stone; a complex spell had already been activated by him!

On the back of the female winged person, Meng Ying was not surprised by such a result.

The winged people's archery was already not bad, and recently they had been practicing shooting every day; combined with enchanted bows, dealing with the private army of a mere noble—even a relatively elite one—and failing to achieve this result would have been what surprised her.

Seeing that all the warriors of the Slo family had been killed, she looked around, then cast a sound amplification spell and said coolly:

"The Slo family maliciously obstructed the sale of divine beans in the Flame Kingdom and secretly plotted schemes against the Fire Kingdom. The Flame Kingdom has no intention of going to war with the Spirit Kingdom, but the Slo family has been regarded as an enemy by the Flame Kingdom and must be eliminated today!"

Meng Ying's cool words caused the surrounding commoners and nobles to stir!

After the previous incident, the commoners were actually happy to see the Slo family suffer misfortune; the Flame Kingdom's actions now made them feel utterly delighted!

Who told the Slo family to block the potato sales and cut off their hope?

Those nobles also couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

What they feared most was the Flame Kingdom going to full-scale war with the Spirit Kingdom.

Although they had never heard the name of the Flame Kingdom before, and just a moment ago had assumed it was merely a beastman kingdom east of the Misty Mountains, not worth fearing.

But the performance of these two thousand winged warriors had frightened them.

Possessing such a powerful air force, and with such excellent equipment, and beastmen being famous for their sturdy physiques, the ground troops were probably the main force; that Flame Kingdom's strength was absolutely not as weak as they had imagined.

Once war broke out, it would likely be quite fierce.

Then it would be bitter for those nobles whose territories lay in the eastern region!

When the time came, they could only pack up their families and flee to other regions; without the continuous income from their territories, how could their lives be so comfortable!

But now it seemed they need not worry!

Immediately, their desire to watch the excitement rose again.

The Flame Kingdom was going to take action against the Slo family?

This was a major event!

The Slo family was the largest family in the eastern region!

Their strength was not weak!

Moreover, the Slo family still had One Sixth-Rank Magus who had not shown himself; that was the Slo family's true confidence!

Besides, once fighting broke out, the Church and the royal family of the Payebu Society would probably not stand by idly, would they?
