Chapter 688: For A Woman

“Wait. We will wait for other forces’ final decision. The current loss is nothing for our [Fire Blood Mercenary Group].” The person with the gold mask said coldly as if those mercenaries who died last night were worthless.

“Then, Laura……” This burly man was lightly stunned. After all, that silver-haired female mage was the daughter of the Group Leader of the [Fire Blood Mercenary Group].

“Don’t worry about her; she will be fine.” As soon as that was said, a golden light flashed in the room, and that person with the gold mask disappeared; it felt like this person was never here. From this alone, one could tell that this person was an experienced Moon-Class Elite.

……

Inside the church at the Chambord City.

In the secret room in the basement, a series of silver lights glared irregularly, giving this concealed space an indescribable holiness and pureness.

Several layers of magic arrays protected this room, and not a single bit of aura and sensation could be leaked. Even god-tier magic items such as [Earthly See – Heavenly Hear] couldn’t break the protection of these powerful magic arrays and obtain information.

In the middle of the room, there was a piece of stone that looked like a little altar, and a black wooden stick that was about a meter long stood on it; it seemed like an ordinary burned stick that was used to stir fire.

As all kinds of colorful lights appeared, all sorts of masters showed up in this secret room one after another.

All the masters who arrived hid their faces. Some of them used magical masks, some used big cloaks, and some used the laws of nature to bend lights and blur others’ visions…… They were all Moon-Class Elites, and their powerful auras packing together made the air in the room dense, and it was a little suffocating.

“Can we start now?” A figure who was enveloped by a black cloak asked impatiently.

“We need to wait for a bit longer. A few others aren’t here yet.” A master of the Holy Church who was wearing a church-style robe shook his head.

“Humph!” A few displeased snorts sounded at the same time.

There were more than a dozen people in here right now, and they were all powerful and influential figures in the area. They either had impressive power, commanded over millions of soldiers, or controlled over a large region of land. They were all overbearing figures and were very conceited. They couldn’t stand waiting for other people since it was usually the other way around.

Therefore, even though they only showed up for less than ten minutes, they were extremely impatient already.

If this alliance weren’t secretly arranged by the two super powerful forces within the region of 500,000 kilometers around Zenit, they would have left already. After all, there weren’t even any seats for them, and they had to stand.

A few minutes later, a few more energy flames flashed by, and four to five people appeared in the secret room.

One of them was the Group Leader of the [Wind Horse Mercenary Group], Mellberg. Unlike other people who hid their faces, this mad lion who was ruthless and had a strange temper showed his real face. After he looked around, a disdainful expression appeared on his face, and he snorted coldly.

Then, a dash of golden light flashed by, and a person with a gold mask and fancy robe appeared.

“Hehehe, I didn’t expect to see you here. Hahaha! A coward who doesn’t dare to face other masters showed up here? Aren’t you scared that I’m going to chop you in half?”

After seeing this man with the gold mask, Mellberg sneered and said with hostility, instantly intensifying the atmosphere in the room.

This scene was expected, so no one was surprised.

The [Wind Horse Mercenary Group] and the [Fire Blood Mercenary Group] were the two most powerful mercenary groups in the region, and there was steep competition between them. For the last dozens of years, they battled with each other frequently, and the blood that dripped from their direct and secret fights could form rivers and lakes. They saw each other as mortal enemies, and they wanted the other party to disappear as soon as possible.

Therefore, as soon as [War Pirate] Mellberg and this person with the gold mask saw each other, they got combative.

However, faced with the provocation of the [War Pirate], the person with the gold mask didn’t respond, acting like a piece of hard ice.

Mellberg knew he couldn’t really attack this man right here right now, so he just sneered and gave a lot of pressure.

“Ok, since we are all here, let’s get it started. First of all, I’m honored that you all can be here.”

As the atmosphere started to tense up, a strange voice that the people in the room never heard of before suddenly sounded.

Everyone was shocked! Until now, they didn’t notice that there was a person beside the black wooden stick on the stone altar!

A cloud of silver energy enveloped this person.

The people in the room were the most powerful masters in the region. With their forces combined, they could instantly conquer numerous empires and change the power dynamics of a part of the continent. They could break the land, shatter the sky, and change the weather…… Almost no one could run and hide from these people……

However, none of them noticed that there was this person in the room; they didn’t know how he got here, and they didn’t know when he got here.

“Such terrifying power!” everyone thought to themselves.

They all suddenly thought to a name, and they shivered a little uncontrollably. Even the lion-like Mellberg put away his arrogance and quieted down.

“I will keep it short. We are all here for one reason, and it is to exterminate the King of Chambord before he grows into a cold-blooded, murderous butcher. We need to take him out before he matures, and it is the only way for us to make sure that the power dynamic in the area doesn’t change, the second Yassin won’t appear, and endless wars and bloody scenes won’t happen. Therefore, we have to do this; it is for the peace of the continent!” This person who was enveloped by the silver energy said slowly.

He didn’t exert any force or energy when he was speaking, but his monotone speech made people wanting to kneel and worship him out of respect and fear.

“Of course, according to our information, there are a lot of treasures in Chambord City. One month ago, the King of Chambord entered the core region of the Mythical Palace, and he got many natural treasures and herbs. In addition, there is the accumulated wealth of Chambord such as its magic civilization. If we can kill the King of Chambord, the treasures will be distributed according to the contribution of each party. I can promise that our force wouldn’t take any of the treasures!”

This mysterious person’s voice sounded in everyone ears.

“Mister, your party wants to conquer the Chambord Kingdom and kill the King of Chambord, but you are not interested in the wealth? What are you after exactly?” [War Pirate] Mellberg was blunt, and he asked the question on his mind without fear.

All other masters looked at the mysterious person.

It was clear to all of them that this mysterious person wasn’t here just for fun.

“Since you all want to know, I won’t keep it a secret. I only want one thing from Chambord; a person, a woman,” this mysterious person stated in his monotone voice.

“A woman?” Everyone was surprised.

For masters like them, they could get their hands on all kinds of beautiful women. To the powerful male masters, women were only there to add spice to their long cultivation lives. To create a scheme that was as complex and far-reaching as this one just for a woman? It was unthinkable to them.
