Chapter 265 The Development of the Incident
"Okay, you two, listen to me."
Talina was also helpless. The Aslade family's behavior was always so troublesome.
"Sir Hall, this time is indeed your problem. No matter how prepared the enemy is. But as a regulator, not only did you fail to defend the trial world, you didn't even find any trace of the enemy. This is somewhat unjustifiable."
After saying that, without waiting for Hall to comment again, she turned to Carlot.
“However, Mr. Carrot, although Hall is wrong, as he said, the enemy should have been fully prepared for this attack.
Whether it was blurring the fate of an entire independent world or the time-stopping hourglass at the ninth level, this was indeed beyond his ability to deal with it. Therefore, this incident cannot be entirely blamed on Hall. "
After listening to Talina's words, Duke Carrot looked at Hall with a cold face, and finally nodded slowly.
"Okay, arrogant golden dragon, since Lady Talina has spoken, I will no longer pursue the issue of malfeasance in your duties for the time being."
"But as compensation, I need 10,000 units of ninth-level dragon blood, 50,000 complete ninth-level dragon scales, ten ninth-level dragon horns for the protagonist, thirty for the supporting characters, and three ninth-level dragon crystals!"
The Aslade family has a connection with the legendary Dragon Island. This is a semi-open secret among the upper echelons of the empire. They just took this opportunity to ask for a huge amount of dragon materials.
"Impossible! Do you think the material of the ninth-level dragon is broadleaf lettuce?! The maximum number of dragon blood is one hundred units, the dragon scales can give you a thousand pieces, the protagonist will give you one dragon horn, three for the secondary character, and the ninth-level dragon crystal Not a single one! We might as well have a fight!”
Hall was startled when he heard Carrot's offer and rejected it unceremoniously.
One unit of dragon blood is about five liters, and ten thousand units of ninth-level dragon blood may not be enough to drain a ninth-level ancient dragon, let alone three ninth-level dragon crystals.
However, although his tone was still tough, there was a hint of beastly cunning in his eyes.
In fact, he always displayed a tough attitude precisely for the sake of the subsequent bargaining.
The problem has already occurred, and as a supervisor, he has indeed made mistakes, and it is impossible not to pay any price.
But if you show weakness, it will only make Carrot blackmail you harder. It is better to have a tough attitude from beginning to end and rely on your fists to do everything.
Anyway, Aslade's relationship with the other three major families was not very good to begin with. No matter how bad his attitude was, it would not cause any additional adverse effects.
Although he looks like he is full of muscles, no professional who can break through to the ninth level is really a fool.
"Sir Hall, this matter is indeed your fault, please don't be too perfunctory."
Talina also noticed this and shook her head slightly.
"Hey, five hundred units of dragon blood, two thousand dragon scales, one dragon horn for the main character, and five for the supporting character! This is my limit! If you want more, I'll have a fight with you two at worst. !”
Hall folded his hands on his chest and raised his head, completely showing off his meaty attitude.
"It's impossible. It requires at least 6,000 units of ninth-level dragon blood, 30,000 complete ninth-level dragon scales, seven ninth-level dragon horns for the main character, twenty for the supporting characters, and two ninth-level dragon crystals!"
Carrot grasped his staff again, and Hall once again touched the hilt of the giant sword.
"Okay, you two, how about you each take a step back? Let me give you a quantity, two thousand units of dragon blood, ten thousand dragon scales, three dragon horns for the main character, ten for the supporting character, and one ninth-level dragon crystal."
Talina simply provided a compromise reference price herself.
"impossible!"
"not enough!"
Both of them rejected Talina's proposal. At the same time, a translucent shadow of the howling crystal bird appeared around Carrot, and a golden dragon head faintly appeared behind Hall.
After the momentum gathered to its peak, the two suddenly collided in the air, setting off a circle of transparent collision ripples in the void. After some mutual repulsion and conflict, they finally dissipated at the same time.
Regardless of top or bottom——
"Hmph...for Talina's sake, just follow the amount she said!"
Somewhat surprised by the result of this test, Hall secretly gritted his teeth and spoke with some pain.
"Haha, if Lady Talina hadn't been here today, these resources would definitely not be enough!"
Carlot also sneered and spoke, looking for a step for the evenly matched two sides to get off.
"Okay, thank you both... Others are already waiting in the council hall. If your problem is solved, let's go."
Talina was used to the two's reactions, and every time she tried to mediate, the end result was the same.
After returning to the continent of Yare, Carrot suddenly discovered that there was an additional message in the crystal ball, which was sent by Anvis.
Anvis said that he is currently safe, but he does not know his specific location for the time being, and there is no need to worry too much about him.
.
….….
Finally, when the three Carlots arrived at the parliament hall of the True Knowledge Society, four people were already waiting in the hall.
When the three figures appeared and everyone nodded to each other, the meeting officially began.
There were only seven people participating in this meeting, but every participant was at level nine.
There is one person from each of the four major families, one from the royal family, one from the academy, and one from the ninth level who does not belong to any of the above.
They did not have cloaks. Instead, each one wore a Mithril True Knowledge Society brooch on their chest.
Since the biggest victim in this incident has reached a settlement with the relevant responsible persons, the fact that Hall failed to supervise was exposed by everyone and no longer pursued.
Correspondingly, the main issue discussed by everyone this time focused on the mysterious force that secretly planned everything in this incident.
The world of the newcomer trial was directly destroyed, which was almost like a slap in the face of the True Knowledge Society.
Feeling that its majesty was seriously challenged, this huge organization began to operate. Prophecy magic, mysterious rituals, time and space secrets... began to use all means to investigate the truth of the matter.
At the same time, the factions headed by the Olivendi family and the Alfred family used this as an excuse to start a large-scale search.
For a time, the upper echelons of the Gloria Empire were in a state of panic. I don’t know how many secret organizations were discovered and then uprooted.
And the various forces behind these organizations could only swallow this loss and dare not act rashly.
A few days later, a document with the True Knowledge Society logo was placed on the large desk in front of Duke Carrot.
The document contains some information about the ancient organization [Door in the Eye].
After all, the truth cannot be hidden. Even if the fate line is covered up by the power of a high-level prophet, the True Knowledge Society still noticed some clues.
The second update, Gugu
