Chapter 654 - 654 654 Charles the Thirty-Second is Critically Ill
654: Chapter 654: Charles the Thirty-Second is Critically Ill 654: Chapter 654: Charles the Thirty-Second is Critically Ill The Beastman King looked at the people below and then began to speak, “Xuanwu Territory has sold us a large amount of Potions which, after verification, have a very good healing effect on most plagues.”
“So I’ve decided that we will sell a batch of Earth Dragons to the Xuanwu Territory.
What do you all think?”
Earth Dragons are a very Advanced mount species; given the massive physiques of us Beastmen, normal horses simply cannot bear our weight, so we must use some special mounts.
Earth Dragons are not dragons, but Magic Beasts with a trace of Dragon Clan bloodline at a low-level.
Although not high-level, Earth Dragons are very strong, and also quite agile, with great stamina and resilience.
They are considered a very top-tier mount species, it’s just a pity that they are not too popular among the Beastmen.
Because Beastmen trust more in themselves than in the strength of mounts.
But for other races, it’s a completely different story.
If they can get their hands on a batch, they can certainly form a very powerful army.
Of course, such an army, no matter how powerful, might not pose a threat greater than a Great Mage.
If it were not so, the Beastman King would not have suggested such an idea.
And speaking of threats, the threat of these creatures might not even be greater than the sniper rifles Zhao Guang sold to them.
The crowd exchanged looks with one another and, without a word, unanimously agreed.
It’s a meeting all the same, but the proceedings among the Beastmen were obviously a lot more decisive and straightforward.
“Good, since everyone agrees, let’s do it that way.
Also, let Garsx go to Xuanwu Territory as the deputy to the envoy.” The crowd nodded in understanding.
Garsx is no ordinary person; he is a genius of the Beastman Royal Family, a young man who has already reached the level of an Advanced Warrior.
It is said that before the age of thirty, he is certain to achieve the level of a Great Knight.
However, the mission this time is quite unusual.
On one hand, he has to win over Zhao Guang, showing the friendly intentions of the Beastmen.
It’s also a form of monitoring.
After the relationship between Aleya and Zhao Guang changed, the Beastman Royal Court cannot trust them completely.
In fact, everyone had been prepared for such an eventuality, it was just a question of sooner or later.
It’s just that the person originally planned to be sent over did not hold such a high position, nothing more.
Just as everyone was discussing the death of a Great Mage, those who were hostile to Zhao Guang were trembling with fear, except for the two princes.
These two, still not believing themselves to be under threat, maintained their arrogant demeanor.
But it was different for others; they knew the worth of a Great Mage, particularly a dangerous Undead Mage.
Zhao Guang was able to confront him directly and kill him, which sufficiently demonstrated his strength.
Moreover, according to the Recording Crystal Stone that was made public, Zhao Guang did not take long, indicating that the battle was quite effortless for him.
The ease with which he killed his opponent speaks volumes about his strength.
Even the two Dukes did not dare to take him lightly at this point.
Indeed, they had some cooperative Great Mages in their service, but if it came to a fierce confrontation with Zhao Guang, it’s unlikely their associates would be willing.
Facing such a person truly brings a headache.
Of course, they’re not too worried; after all, should there be trouble, the Empire would not allow it, and they have more than one or two Great Mages and Great Knights at their disposal.
Of course, the folks from the Temple were a bit irate.
They were initially contemplating letting the Undead Mages teach them a lesson, and then step in to clean up the mess themselves.
But those Undead Mages turned out to be so useless.
After one battle, Zhao Guang’s reputation soared within his territory.
Most people in the territory were refugees from elsewhere and didn’t put much faith in Zhao Guang.
Now, however, the Lord had taken the initiative to strike for the sake of protecting the civilians, displaying such formidable combat power in the process.
That really was too reliable; in comparison, what was the Temple doing?
In an instant, the prestige of the Temple in the entire Xuanwu Territory plummeted—not to freezing point, but not high either.
Some who had just become believers soon found their faith wavering.
But in such a situation, there was nothing the Temple could do, they certainly couldn’t defame the Lord.
Amid this strange state of affairs, a letter suddenly arrived in Xuanwu Territory.
“Charlie the 32nd gravely ill?
So sudden, such a coincidence?”
Zhao Guang pondered over the title before realizing, isn’t that the reigning King Chirali’s title?
It’s quite strange for the King to fall critically ill at such a time.
Consider this, the crisis in the North had just erupted, but had already been completely suppressed by him.
As for the South, various reasons likely mean it won’t pose a problem for a long time.
The West is even more embroiled with Undead Mages and Beastmen clashing; unexpectedly, the external situation has become calm.
At such a time, even if the King is critically ill, outsiders wouldn’t strike, and internally, it could maintain stability.
The most crucial point is, Zhao Guang knows some insider information.
“Master, what’s wrong?” Xi Fei asked softly beside him.
Zhao Guang waved his hand to dismiss the others, then said, “I previously received news that the second prince and Marquis Bo Yan were planning a rebellion, the first step of which was to plunge His Majesty the King into crisis.”
“Ah, so they’ve already made their move,” Xi Fei exclaimed.
Xi Fei didn’t care about what happened to the King; she was more concerned about her master’s stance.
Zhao Guang shook his head, “No, it’s not like that.
When I discovered this matter, I had already reported it to the King.”
Zhao Guang disapproved of the two unruly princes more than the King or the Grand Princess.
If those two succeeded, they would definitely use various means to deal with him.
Even with his own strength being formidable, whether the two of them would be deterred was not certain.
After all, there was something off about the minds of those two, making them sometimes even more unpredictable and concerning.
“So, you mean this is deliberate by His Majesty the King?”
“That’s likely the case.
By this time, the King should have investigated clearly, turning their plot against them.
I can’t believe that the King would still fall into their trap after being warned.”
Yes, that’s what Zhao Guang thought; only by doing so would the second prince be forced to show his hand.
Once he stepped forward, many subsequent events would become easier to handle.
Whether the King’s testing or not would depend on the thoroughness of his investigation.
Once the King finds out that the second prince is indeed planning to target him, even if he is his own flesh and blood, he wouldn’t continue to protect them, would he?
As for how far the other party could go, that remained to be seen.
“Then, do we need to do anything about this matter?” Xi Fei was a bit puzzled.
“No, we do nothing; just watch.
When needed, the King will surely inform us,” Zhao Guang replied.
