Chapter 699: Chapter 146: A Thief’s Bite Imprints Deeply_3

"Absolutely, our concentrated superior forces are indeed aimed at eliminating all potential threats lurking in the shadows. As you said, once we confine these giants and Taurens in their mountain caves, our eagle-bull people can then carry the cave dwellers into the sky." The Mistress of You Yue’er nodded, "Our confusion also lies in this point. According to your description, Prince Richard, with your strength, you should only need to negotiate a cease-fire with us, the Dark Elves and Blood Elves. There is no need for you to generously offer magic teleportation arrays. Although I don’t understand much about magic teleportation arrays, one thing is certain: regardless of the type of magic circle, whether it is the technical principle or the manufacturing material, there are tremendous constraints."

"The raw materials needed for the magic teleportation array are indeed valuable." Liu Zhenhan nodded in agreement. "In the Surface World, all magic circles are extremely expensive. The principle of the magic teleportation array is already very mature, but it’s difficult to find the necessary raw materials."

This was an absolute truth. For most magic circles, constructing them isn’t difficult for a proficient Alchemist; the real challenge is finding rare magic materials. Exceptional magic materials require a great deal of capital to acquire. Without a hefty investment, it’s impossible for an Alchemist to master his craft. Ruona, the wealthiest in the Dragon Clan, reportedly spent half of the Rainbow Dragon City’s fortune practicing her alchemy, illustrating the extent of the investment.

The Fallen Elves could comprehend this basic principle of magic.

"That’s precisely our question." Mother Mosuoblada agreed. "What made you pay such a high price to help us? To put it in layman’s terms, how does this benefit you?"

"Every man has his price, and I’m no different." Liu Zhenhan said with a sly grin. "Let’s talk about the present. The Dark Elves have eight main cities. In every city, there are supposedly one hundred two-headed Chimera knights who serve as the ceremonial guards. You have a total of eight hundred two-headed Chimeras, right?"

"Two-headed Chimeras are ancient, legacy flying mounts of the Dark Elves. What’s so strange about that?" Mother You Yue’er frowned. "Although two-headed Chimeras are big, they are very slow to turn. They are perfect for being ceremonial guards."

"I need these eight hundred Chimeras as conditions for ’sending you out to the surface.’" Liu Zhenhan interrupted the Dark Elves and quickly added, "Whether it’s Drow or Moore, your two elf tribes each have hundreds of thousands of eagle-bull type units for aerial attack. Given their mobility and numbers, you don’t need a few hundred two-headed Chimeras as your main strike force. This thick-skinned Chimera as ceremonial guards, only a hundred in each main city, is due to this reason, right? In my memory, the allocation of aerial knights a thousand years ago definitely wouldn’t have been so few."

"You’re correct. Given the advantage of the eagle-bull people’s numbers, there is indeed no need to breed two-headed Chimeras on a large scale." Mother You Yue’er nodded. "This condition is reasonable. Actually, besides the mature two-headed Chimeras, we do have some less developed Chimeras at various stages. Giving you eight hundred Chimeras wouldn’t be a big loss for us."

"This condition is not too harsh." Prince Moore chimed in with a smile.

"Don’t rush, my conditions aren’t over yet." Liu Zhenhan continued calmly. "As for the war ancient trees in your elf cities, these trees are so large that I don’t think you can take them with you if you plan to return to the surface. How about giving them to me?"

"Our war ancient trees have been growing for a thousand years. Although they can only move away from the soil for less than two hours, if we truly decide to leave the underground, even with their heavy bodies, we can use many chimeras to transport them to the vicinity of the magic teleportation array in batches. Why can’t they be moved?" Mother You Yue’er laughed after hearing Liu Zhenhan’s words.

Rubbish! If they can survive off the soil, I can transport them with my Space Ring. Do you think I need you to lift them with brute force? Liu Zhenhan scoffed internally.

Prince Moore and the other mothers all laughed. Judging from their expressions, they probably thought this Overlord’s appetite was a bit too large.

"You have to bleed a little, right? You can’t expect me to ask for something without paying for it, can you?" Liu Zhenhan shifted in his chair, revealing a face of a professional ruffian.

"Drow Elves have eight main cities, each with two war ancient trees, and Moore has five cities with ten war ancient trees. All together, there are a total of twenty-six war ancient trees. Does your residence have that much planting space?" Prince Moore asked with a smile.

The image of Faelle surrounded by war ancient trees immediately popped into Liu Zhenhan’s mind. If that annoying Prince Richard dared to come, with a casual gesture from Liu, the war trees would sling their spiked fruit and hammer him into the ground. Liu Zhenhan couldn’t help but chuckle at the thought.
