"Jia ah!!!!"
It sounded like an ancient roar coming from the forest.
It spread across the entire plain.
Although Luo Xiu couldn't understand the voice, he understood its meaning.
It is both a demonstration and a warning.
Chapter 66 Do you have a powerful backer?
After striking with the stone hammer, the giant green hand paused for a moment before slowly withdrawing into the Sunset Forest.
The roaring stopped, and calm returned.
It was as if nothing had just happened.
But the enormous crater at the edge of their vision, which seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, reminded everyone that what they had just seen was indeed real.
Luo Xiu let out a long breath.
He knew there was something big hidden in the Sunset Jungle.
It appeared unexpectedly at this critical juncture.
"That's the goblins showing off to the slimes."
Old White, standing to the side, slowly spoke:
"The slime lost a considerable number of troops in this battle. The goblins have been hiding for more than 20 years, and they will not let this opportunity pass them by."
"The two sides will likely find themselves in a situation where they are mutually hindering each other again."
"This is a good thing for us. At least for the next few decades, we won't have to worry about attacks from these two demonic races."
"What level of goblin was that hand just now?"
Luo Xiu asked.
Old White shook his head:
"I don't know, but it's definitely a being of the fifth rank or higher. Beings of this rank aren't something you can just see whenever you want."
Does the Bandanda have a fifth tier?
Luo Xiu asked.
"Have."
Old Huai nodded:
"Because the destructive power of the fifth rank is too great, by convention, beings of the fifth rank and above generally do not directly participate in small-scale wars between races."
Luo Xiu nodded thoughtfully.
This is just a small episode.
After all the fourth-tier and third-tier slimes were killed, the remaining low-tier slimes naturally had nowhere to escape.
They were completely wiped out amidst the Knights' fervent enthusiasm.
Luo Xiu also got involved.
You can't pass up the highest points you get for free.
But even after all the slimes were wiped out, he had only killed a little over four hundred first-tier slimes.
There weren't enough points to get the maximum of 1 point.
Whether the killing is fast or not is one thing, the main thing is that he suspects that by now, there aren't even 1000 Tier 1 Slimes left on the battlefield.
A rising sun slowly ascended from the edge of the slime plain, its warm rays illuminating the entire world and warming the hearts of everyone present.
The Knights and Vultures cheered continuously.
Today is their day of celebration.
But the feelings of a certain group are much more complicated than theirs.
In front of the Knights' camp, the bound nobles felt both joy at having survived and extreme anxiety.
They were waiting for Miler and the Knights to come and rescue them, but Miler was nowhere to be seen.
Each of them wore a worried expression.
Unbeknownst to them, in a corner of the battlefield, Luo Xiu and Old White were having a secret conversation.
They were discussing their fate.
"What do you plan to do with those nobles who are tied up?"
Old White spoke slowly.
Luo Xiu didn't answer, but looked at old White and smiled as he spoke:
"Since you've asked me this, it seems you have a solution, Old White?"
Old Huai nodded:
"If you ask me, don't kill them all at once. It will only cause a lot of trouble later. I have a way to deal with it and I will make sure to minimize the trouble."
"We can keep some useful things as a favor."
"it works?"
Luo Xiu blinked:
"You're going to send them away as slaves? At least make them stupid first to be on the safe side."
Old White's expression froze.
He immediately waved his hand dismissively.
Under Luo Xiu's questioning gaze,
He summoned the Vulture Clan to form a large circle, surrounding himself and Luo Xiu within it.
Then he took out a black crystal from his magic pocket.
As he infused magic into the crystal, a black magic circle unfolded beneath it, and then a cube-shaped field of energy "whooshed" out from within the magic circle.
It enveloped the two of them.
Each face of the cube is like a dark, flowing curtain, isolating it from outside sight and sound.
"Sure, old White."
Luo Xiu curiously touched the magic field, and a ripple appeared, allowing him to feel a slight resistance:
"I didn't expect you to have so much stuff, far more than those nobles have in their magic pockets. I really want to see what else you have in your magic pocket."
Old White felt a chill run down his spine.
For some reason, hearing Luo Xiu say those words made him feel unsafe about his magic pocket.
He coughed twice, gripped his magic pouch tightly with one hand, and carefully reached into the pouch with the other to pull out a mirror.
Then he pulled out a dagger and cut his index finger.
Tick tock!
A drop of blood fell onto the mirror, and old White gestured for Luo Xiu to move away slightly.
Once Luo Xiu had moved a little further away, he saw the mirror in Old White's hand begin to distort like a vortex.
Slowly, a dark figure appeared on the other side of the mirror.
The man seemed quite displeased that old White was contacting him at this time; his tone was not pleasant.
“White, I told you, don’t expect me to help you unless you can get that done.”
"Besides, the sun has only just risen in the east. I'm not some rooster that needs to crow early. I need to rest."
It was a man's voice, with a heavy, breathy tone and a slightly effeminate quality.
Judging from the shape of the figure, it should be a person of considerable weight.
"Lord Raul, that matter has been completed."
Old White lowered his head and spoke.
"Finished? You're such a liar, White. Why don't you just say Larry couldn't hold it in and died of overeating while in the bathroom?"
The man sounded like he had a lot of opinions about Lord Larry, the lord of Bandanda.
"Lord Raul, what I said is true. The news should reach the capital in a day at most."
Old White began.
The man's figure froze, seemingly observing old White's expression.
Finally, he murmured:
"My goodness, it actually finished...it actually finished?!"
The man swayed back and forth, pacing excitedly, before finally stopping and bursting into laughter.
"Well done, White! I knew you were an eagle soaring through the sky, just like your teacher! Larry is finally finished!"
"Besides this matter, you must have something else to say, right? Go ahead and say it. Apart from the things I promised you before, I can only do those things after the news is confirmed to be true."
Old Huai nodded and recounted the story of the nobles.
The man was initially shocked to hear that old White had kidnapped a nobleman. He then asked old White what specific titles were held among the nobles, and then waved his hand dismissively:
"No problem, White. It's perfect to have a few little parrots under Larry. After all, it's going to be a tug-of-war, and having a few little parrots will make things a lot easier."
"If the information is verified, White, based on this alone, I can increase the conditions I previously agreed to for you."
"Take a look and decide who you think is suitable to stay as a parrot. The rest are fine as long as they can never speak again."
"You know, sparrows that love to chirp are the most troublesome."
"The situation at those mage academies is more complicated; I'll have to ask someone about it."
The man paused for a moment before speaking:
