Chapter 1916: I Came To Fetch My Wife And Put An Arrogant Prick Down At The Same Time
Late at night, the meeting hall in the city lord’s castle was brightly lit, and all the various representatives had a solemn expression.
All of them had already been to that cave together, and seen the remnants of the destroyed seal and the heated battle.
They were already sure that a devil had escaped and disappeared.
Meanwhile, Rankster had to have had a battle with that devil. No one knew what had happened to him, and his body hadn’t been found at the cave.
This, without a doubt, was very bad news.
All of them had seen the horrors of the devil. Even the combined efforts of the 10th-tier powerhouses couldn’t kill it. If Alex had not set off the tribulation lighting in the Thunderstorm Mountains, and the formation masters from the Moon Nation had not helped to repair the seal spell formation, that Great Old One would’ve been terrorizing the continent now.
However, a devil had already broken out of the seal and disappeared now. It was, without a doubt, the most unstable factor on the Norland Continent.
An uncontrollable existence was no doubt the most dangerous.
The memory of the Urba Tribe tragedy was still entrenched in all their minds. Nobody wanted the same tragedy to befall their race and tribe.
Douglas broke the silence by speaking in a low voice. “We need to find it as soon as possible. Otherwise, nobody can rest in peace.”
“The problem now is how can we find it?” Irina looked at him. “Rankster belongs to your Frost Dragon tribe, and most probably only he knows where the devil is now.”
“Rankster has already been missing for three years. We have no idea where to look for him, either.” Douglas shook his head. This matter was already beyond the Frost Dragons’ capability.
The representatives were arguing, and they were getting increasingly agitated. However, nobody came out with a feasible solution.
“Arguing is meaningless. The devil’s existence has already threatened all the races. The only way that we can prevail when facing such a terrifying and difficult to handle enemy is to put on a united front.” Michael broke up the argument in a grave voice.
“What do you suggest, Michael?” Louis asked Michael.
All the representatives looked at Michael, who was the host.
With a severe expression, Michael said, “It’s not practical to look all over the continent for a devil that has hidden itself. If it is the other half of the devil in the Thunderstorm Mountains, then it’s very possible that it will go to destroy the seal and release that devil.
“I think we should organize a powerful reserve force so that we can handle the devil that can appear at the Thunderstorm Mountains any time.
“At the same time, we should set up another seal spell formation close to that original seal. We can lure that devil into the seal spell formation in case we fail to kill it, and then look for solutions to kill it.”
All the representatives nodded thoughtfully after hearing that. Compared to the meaningless arguments, Michael’s suggestion was at least very feasible.
“We will need the Moon Nation’s formation masters to set up the spell formations if we need to rebuild the seal. Why are they not present?” Sean asked with a frown.
“This is the trial of all the races on the Norland Continent. They are safely tucked away on the moon. They are doing us a favor when they help us, but they are not required to do so. Who do you think you are? How can you so shamelessly expect them to help us?” Irina looked at Sean mockingly with a hint of coldness in her smile.
Sean’s face fell, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face. He coldly snorted. “You should know that this matter concerns the safety of all races too. What’s the point of cracking wise?”
Irina looked at Sean, and coldly said, “To me, the Norland Continent’s biggest threat now isn’t one devil, but your Roth Empire’s millions of cavalrists who are ready for battle. I want to ask, would the Roth Empire sign on the peace accord after all the races subdued the devil together?”
The various representatives hushed and shifted their gazes between the two of them.
Alex sliced off one of Josh’s ears, and left a declaration of killing him. Alex and Irina’s feud with the Roth Empire was already in the open.
Irina and Alex were no nice guys. After Irina came out of her seclusion and Alex reappeared, the people who had been present on that rainy night died one by one.
Now, only the Roth Empire’s royal family who had played a leading part in that was left.
Meanwhile, the Roth Empire had already grown into a giant in the past 100 years.
Compared to the scattered tribes of the giant dragons, the Roth Empire was firmly in the grasp of Andre. Be it the 1,000,000 of cavalry troops or the countless magic casters from the Magus Tower, they already had the scale and power that the various races had to be wary of.
The peace meeting would begin in a few days, and Andre’s ambition was obvious. If the Norland Continent was to descend into a racial war again, that missing devil was indeed no longer important.
Sean furrowed his brows even tighter. Obviously, he couldn’t give a clear answer to this question. Andre didn’t give him a clear answer before he came, either.
He knew what Andre wanted: he wanted the entire world to belong to the Roth Empire. He wanted all the races to bow to the Roth Empire, and even become their slaves.
Sean wanted that too.
However, he couldn’t say such words now, and Andre wouldn’t allow him to give such a stupid answer, either.
“Our Roth Empire is willing to team up with all of you to deal with the devil. This is for the Norland Continent’s benefit. As for the peace meeting, we have our requests. We don’t decide whether we will sign the peace accord. That is decided by the various races’ attitudes,” Sean said gravely. He managed to sound calm and steady in the midst of the 10th-tier powerhouses.
“You all are asking for the impossible according to Josh’s explanation.” Louis jeered mercilessly.
Sean looked at Louis, and calmly said, “The Roth Empire has always been practical. We don’t fight an unprepared war, and we don’t make requests that can’t be fulfilled.”
All the various representatives’ expressions changed slightly, and they began to look at Sean with a complex gaze. They had to admit that the 100 years of peace had given the Roth Empire unparalleled prosperity and development. This was how it became such a headache now.
“Are you getting carried away, or I can’t lift a sword anymore?”
Right then, a mocking voice appeared outside the meeting hall.
Everyone looked towards the door in unison.
The doors of the meeting hall gradually opened to the two sides. A man wearing a black action suit and a mask and carrying a heavy sword slowly walked in.
“Alex!” A glint burst out in Sean’s eyes, and he instinctively clenched his fists.
Meanwhile, the 10th-tier powerhouses surrounding Sean were staring at the door warily, and began to get closer to the prince.
“I came to fetch my wife and put an arrogant prick down at the same time. I don’t think you gentlemen would mind, right?”
There was still a hint of mockery in Mag’s voice.
