Chapter 611: 447, White Dove City’s new Moon Rank
“President Velen, your graciousness in coming here surely isn’t just to admire the scenery? Apart from the grasslands, there’s nothing here but the monotonous Mondale Trees.”
Augutuo said with a faint smile, “Or perhaps, you’d like to try some freshly picked fruit?”
“Hahahaha.” Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs NoveIꜰire.net
There was an outburst of mocking laughter among the Crimson Adventure Group.
Velen ignored their scornful gazes and walked up to Augutuo.
Just as a cold light flashed in Augutuo’s eyes, preparing to teach this president a lesson,
to everyone’s surprise, Velen took a deep breath and bowed to Augutuo!
Everyone was shocked.
Since when does a president bow to an adventurer, and moreover, an adventurer from another place?
Lia wanted to go and help Velen up.
But Aiko grabbed her hand and shook her head.
Lia let out a sound of humiliation.
Augutuo looked down at Velen with amusement and said, “President, what do you mean by this?”
“Please… release the adventurers of White Dove City,” Velen said with a hoarse voice.
A look of surprise crossed Augutuo’s face.
A president of an adventure guild was bowing to him.
Such an honor would have been inconceivable before he broke through to the Moon Rank.
Unfortunately, Velen’s bow did not win Augutuo’s sympathy.
“You say release and I should just release? Why should I follow your command?” Augutuo chuckled.
Velen clenched his fists, still bending over, and continued:
“The Miracle is yours, and the output of the 15th floor of the Great Mystery Continent in the resource area of White Dove City will all be given to you. Captain Augutuo, please… let these children go.”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Lia and the others all changed.
This was akin to handing over the lifeline of White Dove City to the opponent!
Augutuo looked at Velen with surprise, not expecting the president to be so decisive.
“Sounds tempting, but you’ve got one thing wrong,” Augutuo said with a smile, his voice unhurried. “Negotiations are based on the premise that the parties have equal strength, or at the very least, the weaker party has the ability to threaten the stronger party.
But Red Heart City has over a hundred Star Rank members.
I can take whatever I want from you without needing your consent.”
Even as Velen braced himself for humiliation, he could not help but have his eyebrows twitch and his chest heave violently.
“Of course, I am a merciful person and willing to give White Dove City a chance.”
Augutuo slightly loosened his grip on Klrona’s neck, placing Klrona on the ground.
He was like a father, holding Klrona’s small hand.
The latter didn’t dare to move, letting Augutuo lead her.
“Agree to these few conditions, and I can spare you.”
Weylon: “What conditions?”
“First, Snow Goose and Ice Flower will merge into the Scarlet Adventure Group.” Augutuo began with a demand that made Weylon’s vision go dark.
Lia and Isa also showed expressions of disbelief.
Augutuo’s conditions hadn’t ended, as he slowly continued:
“Second, during the 15th level of the expedition, Lin Da maliciously killed our Red Heart City adventurer, Slo.
I demand that he go apologize sincerely in front of Slo’s grave.”
“Third, the resource output of White Dove City’s 15th level for the next thirty years will belong to The Mandalas.”
Augutuo: “If you can agree to this, I’ll return this child to you, and I will also allow you to use the Teleportation Stone safely to return to White Dove City.”
At this moment, Abner led the White Dove Adventure Group and the Valiant Adventure Team to the scene.
Upon hearing Augutuo’s conditions, everyone’s eyes filled with intense anger.
These were not conditions; they were practically daylight robbery!
Weylon’s brows furrowed deeply: “Captain Augutuo, do you really want to push things to the extreme?”
“Survival of the fittest is the very nature of an adventurer. If you are to blame anyone, blame your White Dove City for being incompetent.”
With a snap, Augutuo tied Klrona up with a blood-colored silk thread, handed her to his subordinates, and then strode toward the Buti Tree.
“I advise you to stand still compliantly. If you startle the Buti Bird, who knows what could happen to this lovely member of the Snow Goose.”
Augutuo disregarded Lia and Isa in front of him and pushed the two aside with a shove.
Fry, Celina, and Captain Timo, along with their team members, passed by Weylon.
“President Velen, don’t blame yourself. If there’s anyone to blame, it’s the lackluster adventurers of White Dove City.” Fry patted Weylon’s shoulder with feigned sympathy.
Celina said to Isa: “Sorry, but your Miracle will be taken by Red Heart City.”
Last time on the 15th level, Celina begged Isa for mercy, causing Isa to hesitate and be ambushed by Slo.
It seemed that Celina had forgotten that incident.
Isa coldly replied: “If there is a next time, I won’t hold back.”
Celina was taken aback, spread her hands, and followed Augutuo toward the Buti Tree. The slight upward curve of her mouth made the cold light in Isa’s eyes grow more intense.
White Dove City’s original plan was, if they could not protect the Miracle, to at least scare off the Buti Bird, making Red Heart City’s efforts all for naught.
But the swords in Lia and Isa’s hands felt like they weighed tons; they could not raise them.
At that moment, with Klrona taken as a hostage and the overwhelming number of adventurers from Red Heart City,
if they were to initiate a fight, they were bound to be at a disadvantage.
“If only I were stronger…” Lia bit her lip resentfully. Her desire for strength had never been so urgent.
Vaguely, she heard a blurry voice that seemed to say it could grant her power.
As Lia concentrated and listened, suddenly,
lightning flashed across the plains in front of them.
A figure landed on the ground, standing in front of the people from Red Heart City.
Anger emerged in Augutuo’s eyes.
Fry and the others nearby had goosebumps all over, finding it extremely difficult to breathe.
The power of this leader of the Crimson Group was more terrifying than they had imagined!
