Chapter 47: Greed Fills the Heart (Part 1)

  Roman Paradise Star 'Hedulia' Base - Hedulia is one of the many deities worshipped by the Roman First Choice Imperial Family.

  Inside the base, in a room decorated with numerous pale purple crystal carvings, Polpo Holtzm was pacing back and forth in anger. The large skylight in the room was open, and the blue moonlight pouring in through it filled the entire room, casting an eerie glow on Polpo Holtzm's face.

  Dukate Holm stood quietly in the corner of the house, his hands clasped together in front of his chest, his chin proudly raised high, and his black eyes cold and gloomy.

  Borbert Holum suddenly strode forward, towering over Dukate Holum with a low growl: "Are you certain there won't be any mistakes? The First Imperial Family, the Velfort family, suffered heavy losses this time. As long as I can establish enough merit, I'll be able to completely suppress those two good-for-nothings from the Velfort family and forge my own glory! If your plan goes awry, can you, a lowly half-breed, take responsibility for it?"

  Ducate Holwurm said coldly, "Give me enough manpower and I have the confidence to capture them all. Think about those magical metal formulas, don't mention anything else, as long as you can get that kind of metal formula that can shield our scanners, this merit is enough for you to become the most outstanding existence among the nine imperial families of this generation."

  "Excellent!"

  Borbur Holm repeated Dukate Holm's words in a low tone. He tilted his head, pondered for a moment, then leaned forward and brought his face close to Dukate Holm's, saying word by word: "So, I'll give you half of the family's army this time, which fully meets your requirements, doesn't it?"

  "I also want Montet Di by your side!" Ducate Holstrom's pale skin showed a faint golden pattern, a sign of the Roman mixed-blood's emotional excitement. Ducate Holstrom said in a low and urgent tone: "Among those Earthlings, there are boundary soldiers, but their strength is about the same as mine. Montet Di became a boundary soldier 200 years ago, his overwhelming power can kill all the boundary soldiers on Earth!"

  Ducate Holwurm took a deep breath, and in a voice full of temptation, he whispered to Polport Holwurm, "Think about it, how much bounty does the Temple offer for an Earthling Knight? How much merit can be gained from killing one? Enough to surpass Borukin and Yakkin, even their brothers..."

  "That's enough, I don't want to hear that person's name." Borport Holm's golden pupils contracted slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Monte Tordi was brought by you. If something happens to him, you will bear all the responsibility. At that time, it won't just be you, but also your despicable mother. Hmph, do you understand the consequences?"

  "Yes!"

  Dukate Holm bowed his head, at an angle that Polport Holm couldn't see, the corner of Dukate Holm's eye twitched violently. Straightening up, Dukate Holm walked out of this overly ornate and exquisite room, a faint shadow floated out from behind Polport and followed him out.

  Borport Holmstrom sat blankly in the room for a while, and after a while, he suddenly smiled gloomily. A faint black light shot out from his brow, and several furry poisonous bees buzzed out of the black light. Borport Holmstrom sat cross-legged in the center of the room, and several poisonous bees flew around him for a few laps before flying out of the door.

  In the valley, Xiao Zhang Daoren and Hua Mian's faces were not friendly as they stared at Andrei, with swords drawn and a tense atmosphere. The many clergy members brought by Andrei surrounded Xiao Zhang Daoren and Hua Mian, and Andrei looked down on them with disdain before calmly making the sign of the cross on his chest.

  "Respected Gu Xiechen, may I assume that since you handed over that mysterious bamboo slip to this young Zhang Daolong, your transaction with the Asian Dao Alliance has already been completed?"

  Gu Xiechen clasped his hands together in front of his chest and took a few steps back, forming a stable triangle with Sai Jin and Aridiya. Gu Xiechen smiled elegantly at Andrei: "Indeed, it can be thought of that way. Hmm, what do you mean?"

  Andre grasped the pure silver cross hanging from his chest with his right hand, and pushed Gu Xie dust away with his left. He said extremely seriously: "Since the transaction is complete, Mr. Gu bringing us to this valley was an additional clause outside of the deal. Now that you've brought us here, what's left has nothing to do with you."

  He shot a cold glance at Gu Xiechen and asked in a sinister tone, "Was it you who brought this group of gods here?"

  "Astonished, Gu Xie dust spread his hands and said: 'See a ghost, how could I have brought them over? Who knows how they followed us?'"

  Andre smiled slightly, and with a gentle wave of his hand, a pure white eagle descended rapidly from the sky. The eagle landed on Andre's shoulder, nuzzling him affectionately with its beak. Gu Xiechen didn't recognize the origin of this white eagle, but Hua Zhen let out a shocked cry: "So it's the Golden Eyed Snow Eagle! No wonder, no wonder. Andre, when did your Vatican fall to the point of relying on beasts?"

  Bare provocation, Andrei ignored it, he just smiled at Gu Xiechen and said: "Consider my opinion, Mr. Gu Xiechen, your transaction is over, you don't need to continue participating."

  Gu Xie's eyebrows furrowed in displeasure, and he said in a low voice, "However, I have reached a new agreement with Zhang Daolong. He will buy everything in this valley at a discounted price. Your Excellency..."

  Andre brought hundreds of heavy armored knights who drew out their shining greatswords in unison, and with the chanting voices, these long swords made mainly of white silver emitted bright white light. This white light did not give people a warm or safe feeling at all, but instead made them feel as if steel knives were cutting through their bodies, even making them ache to the bone marrow.

  Sai Yin smiled softly and snapped his fingers, ready to unleash the power of his "Domain".

  Ardiya habitually retreated a few steps, a thin red glow wrapped around her feet, supporting her body as it floated off the ground several meters high. Waves of heat continuously emanated from her body, hot winds producing a 'whooshing' sound, an extremely shocking scene.

  Andre sneered coldly and was about to order the knights behind him to surround Saren and Aridy, but Gu Xiechen suddenly shouted loudly: "A gentleman moves his mouth but not his hands, harmony is precious, harmony generates wealth... We're leaving, we can leave, right? Everything in this valley belongs to you, let's go!" As he shouted, Gu Xiechen dragged Saren and Aridy towards the entrance of the valley.

  Hua's eyes widened in shock, and Xiao Zhang exclaimed incredulously: "Gu Xiechen, you're really leaving like this? What about our agreement just now...?"

  Gu Xie dust smiled warmly and kindly, his hands clasped together in a fist, constantly bowing to Little Zhang Daoren.

  "The benefits of this world are endless, there's no need to take too great a risk for just a little profit. Directly clashing with Archbishop Andrei would be most unwise."

  Andrei proudly raised his head, and with a light wave of his right hand, the heavy armored knights parted to let Gu Xiechen and the other two leave the valley. If not necessary, Andrei did not want to conflict with Gu Xiechen either, as anyone who simultaneously confronted three Jieshi would have a headache.

  As he watched the three of Gu Xie dust leave the valley, Andre's face was suddenly filled with a triumphant smile. He put his hands in his sleeves and smiled at Hua and Xiao Zhang, after a while, Andre said with a forced smile: "Two, please hand over that bamboo slip now. I've been busy for days to find this opportunity!"

  Gu Xie dragged the constantly jumping and struggling Sai Ni, as well as Aridyah, who was shrouded in a cold aura, out of the valley. As soon as they escaped, Sai Ni, who had been shouting that he wanted to see Andrei's strength, calmed down. With a lazy yawn, Sai Ni leaned against Aridyah like a boneless insect: "Evil dragon, are you sure this method is effective?"
