Chapter 342: The Bottom Line of the Council

The noon sun shines on the earth, but it can't drive away the cold atmosphere. The representatives of the observation team could even see the white gas coming out of their mouths. The surrounding temperature must be very low, even colder than winter. The culprit of all this is the incomparably rich negative energy, and it is only the aftermath of the spread.

Lisa wrapped herself tightly in her skirt, shivering and asked the masked mage next to her: "Should we go over and try to get in touch, otherwise half of the people in the Ronoel family's territory will be killed if we go on like this."

"Sorry, ma'am. I must remind you that the residual negative energy on the land over there is enough to kill several giant dragons. If you get closer, you will immediately become a lifeless corpse like Farthington."

"Okay, then please fly over and pass the message on your behalf, saying that I want to talk to him on behalf of the Council." Lisa had already recognized Henry, so she was going to try to negotiate. After all, as the master of another country, inheriting a large area of ​​Amn's land is likely to cause territorial disputes. The Council of Six will not allow the land north of the Esmer River to be lost, which is the last grain-producing area.

"Are you kidding me? Let's not talk about Mr. Legendary Mage, just those two giant dragons are a big trouble. Please allow me to refuse, because this is risking your life." The masked mage replied with a livid face.

In his opinion, this woman's brain must have been eroded by negative energy, otherwise how could she have the idea of ​​negotiating with the legendary mage. You must know that it represents the world's top spellcaster. Even if you accidentally kill yourself, you may only be unlucky. The guild will not fight a promising legendary mage for a dead ordinary member.

Lisa saw the fear in the masked mage's eyes, and comforted her with a smile: "Don't worry, I know this person. He is Henry Angomey, the master of the emerging country in the north, and a legendary adventurer. This person's reputation is quite good, and he will definitely not kill someone for no reason."

"Are you sure you're right? There is information on this person in the union. As far as I know, he was only a mage and druid of a dozen or so levels in December last year. How come he has improved so much in just over half a year? It's incredible! And he's not even thirty years old yet. Could it be that another genius-like figure is going to be born!"

Hear the wonder of the masked mage. Lisa couldn't help showing a wry smile. Yes, now he is already a legendary spellcaster. I'm afraid that even if the six-member Council finds out about this matter, they can only negotiate slowly, and threatening to use force is simply courting death. It seems that it is impossible to take back the land now. The best way is to let it join the ranks of nobles and ensure that the north of the Esmeer River will not split from Amn.

Thinking of this, she immediately urged impatiently: "Don't think so much, hurry up and get in touch. Otherwise, he might fly away in a while."

"Since you're so persistent, I'll take a trip. I hope this gentleman's temper is as good as the legend says. Otherwise, I might not be able to come back." As he spoke, the masked mage blessed himself with "Acid Protection" and "Stone Skin", and then "Flight", and slowly left the ground. He did this mainly because he was afraid of being attacked by the flying black dragon in mid-air. What happened to Isaiah when he was sprayed with acid just now was really terrible.

Oroxis noticed the masked mage approaching, with a malicious smile on his face. Just when it was about to fly over to tease this guy, it was stopped. Henry nodded slightly to the mage in the distance. Then quietly waited for the opponent to fly over. With his current status and strength, this is considered very polite.

Seeing this friendly signal, the masked mage was immediately relieved. He speeded up his flight, and soon came to the front and bowed. "It's a great honor to meet you, Master. I'm mainly sending a message for Ms. Lisa over there, she would very much like to talk to you."

"Lisa?" Henry looked carefully at the observation group, then nodded in a sudden realization. "No problem. But I need to deal with these residual negative energy first. Otherwise, the corpses on the ground will soon be transformed into undead."

"Thank you very much!" The masked mage bowed again, turned around and ran away in a hurry. After all, not everyone can stand being stared at by two giant dragons, especially the black dragon's malicious eyes, it's almost like looking at prey.

Seeing his safe return, Lisa hurried over and asked, "How is it? Did he agree?"

"Yes, the master said he would be here soon."

The voice of the masked mage just fell. I saw a burst of strong positive energy erupting in the distance. A ray brighter than the sun arose around Henry, neutralizing a lot of negative energy that had penetrated deep into the earth. After casting the "Yang Flame Explosion" once a day, he threw the "Day Star" back into the dimension bag. Now except for a little bit left in the air, there is basically no great harm. I believe that after a week of light at most, the place will be restored to its original state.

Seeing that there were no irreparable consequences. Henry breathed a sigh of relief, and then directly used the fourth-level magic "any door" to come to the resting place of the observation group. He didn't even look at the ashen-faced noble representatives, he nodded slightly at Lisa and said with a smile, "I really didn't expect that we would meet again so soon after we left Baldur's Gate."

"Yeah... Who would have thought that you would become so powerful in such a short period of time. I invite you to come here this time, mainly to talk about the issue of land. After the destruction of the Ronald family, you will obtain a large area of ​​territory north of the Esmer River. This is the last granary of Amn, and the council will never allow anyone to split it off."

"Please rest assured, I have no intention of merging them into the Principality. The territory here is still part of Amn, and I will also fulfill my responsibilities as a local nobleman, whether it is military service or taxation. But there is one thing that must not exceed the upper limit of the land." Henry took out a signed statement document. He knows very well that if this kind of thing is not implemented on paper, others will not believe it.

After reading the contents of the document, Lisa immediately breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that Amn is currently troubled. The shrinking trade alone is enough to cause headaches. Moreover, there are more and more frictions between the southern border and Tethyr. It is not certain when the war will start. If there is another legendary spellcaster who gets involved, maybe the whole country will be divided up.

You must know that Amn is a country jointly ruled by merchants and nobles, and everything can be clearly marked. Under the influence of this social atmosphere, the corruption of officials and soldiers is beyond imagination, otherwise criminal organizations like the Shadow Thieves Union would not have been born. It would be fine if such a country remained strong, but once it weakened, businessmen would not suffer losses for their own interests, and betraying the country would be a matter of course.

Although the Masked Mage Guild appears to be very loyal on the surface, everyone knows the virtues of the mage group, and selfishness is their nature. If the situation got out of hand, I'm afraid these guys either defected to the new ruler immediately, or packed up and ran away.

But now it seems that the north should be safe and sound. Thinking of this, Lisa lifted her skirt and bowed deeply. "Thank you very much for your understanding and support. Although it is a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask, how do you plan to deal with the remaining relatives of the Ronoel family?"

"Of course, according to the ancient tradition, blood relatives must be exterminated."

When Henry said this again, he glanced at several noble representatives with cold eyes. These guys are all closely related to Farthington, and it is estimated that there is a lot of slavery and drug trafficking involved. He planned to go to the Ronoel family's mansion in Ascatella to look through it in a while, there must be ledgers and contact letters inside.

"This... this is too cruel!"

"That's right! These barbaric rules were established hundreds of years ago, so there's no need to be so extreme now..."

The representatives of the nobles began to discuss with compassion on their faces, trying to launch a public opinion offensive to keep the remaining members of the Ronaldo family. Because they are all married for generations, they are basically related.

"Oh? You don't know the virtues of the Ronaldo family, do you? The slave trade alone is enough for these people to die a few times."

Henry tore off the last fig leaf with a sneer. He knew very well that doing so would offend some nobles and big businessmen, but what did it matter. Anyway, a plan has been made to set off a civilian riot in Amn, and sooner or later they have to draw a line with these people. And there are many benefits to doing so, at least ordinary people will regard him as a hero who is not afraid of power.

"Slander! You are naked slander!"

"That's right! Although you have won, you must not tarnish the glory of the Ronoel family!"

"I want to appeal to the council!"

The nobles could no longer keep calm and became a mess. You must know that almost every family in the slave trade will have a little bit of it. If this matter is exposed, ordinary people will not only no longer be in awe of the noble class, but will also think that nobles are not good things. Once this hatred of the rich is contagious, their life will be difficult in the future.

"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here! Whether it is slander or not, you only need to go to the house of the Ronald family in the city to find out. In addition, I just have a gift here, please ask Ms. Lisa to pass it to the Council for me."

Looking at the mad dog-like noble representative, Henry took out the big killer that had been prepared, the huge head of the ancient red dragon. The masked mage only glanced at it, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably. He rushed over to look at it carefully, and then announced loudly: "Gods are above! This is the head of the legendary dragon, Balagos "Flying Flame"! It's unbelievable that someone can actually kill it!"
