Chapter 525: Chapter 302: It’s Not a Fight If You Don’t Fight Back_2
 

“Now, I’ve lent you the Dragon Knights, and the loss has been severe. You need to give me an explanation before I can explain it to everyone else,”

Dyson hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, give me another chance. Only after Goddess of Beauty City has been conquered can I provide everyone with an explanation. Even if you strip everything from me right now, I wouldn’t be able to explain.”

It was rare for Dyson to use such a ‘debtor is the boss’ tone with Giuliani; he must’ve been pretty flustered.

He was chased back from the Land of Fallen, with a bunch of followers that needed to be settled. He had used up every single copper coin in his pockets. His original plan was to take over the Goddess of Beauty city to regain his losses. But others were quicker and more ruthless than him.

He had just gone to discuss a potential plan. Before the plan was even decided upon, the enemy ambushed him on the road, causing him to lose one clone and frightening the Seth Royal Family.

The Seth royal family no longer possessed the determination of their ancestors to go all out against the undead. Now, they had become a group of goblins that wouldn’t make a move without seeing any gold coins. If Dyson couldn’t hold the enemy back, they definitely would not supply troops.

Well then, the scheme of borrowing troops to steal money and then use the stolen money to repay debts failed. Left with no other choice, he had to approach Giuliani.

Initially, he did not want to seek Giuliani’s help. If he could settle things by himself, only three-tenths of the profit would have to be given to the curia. But if Giuliani was to make a move, he would have to give away eight-tenths and bear all the costs and risks, which would be a great loss.

However, the initial costs had already been paid. He was somewhat unwilling to give up just yet, and in the end, he couldn’t resist seeking help from Giuliani. As long as Giuliani could make a move, the risk was quite minimal.

Didn’t expect even such a small risk to fail. Why is it so tough for him?

Giuliani’s intention was to let him bear all the losses. Dyson did not dare to refuse, but the loss was so big, half of the Dragon Knights, Dyson really could not afford it.

“What do you plan to do?” Giuliani asked.

“I need to go back and do some research first,” Dyson said, frowning.

The enemy’s power was far beyond what he anticipated. During the attempted assassination in Seth Royal Court, the enemy demonstrated a remarkable individual strength, and all the Black Warriors he had sent to collect information had disappeared, displaying a strong anti-assassination capability.

So he only dared to launch a large-scale attack with his troops, but now even the army’s advancement had failed. Although there was a bloodline suppression factor involved, they couldn’t possibly find another equally powerful legion and try again, right?

Giuliani suddenly smirked mysteriously, waved his hand to dismiss everyone, leaving only him and Dyson in the room.

After everyone left, Giuliani looked Dyson up and down and said smilingly, “Actually, you could go in person.”

The look in Giuliani’s eyes made Dyson’s spine stiffen. He was reminded of some rumors about Giuliani being weak. He didn’t used to pay attention to such rumors. Which well-known figure in the curia was not rumored to be weak?

Dyson quickly shook his head and said, “No, that day, they demonstrated an overwhelming individual strength during the assassination attempt. Even if I am to send all my men, we might not be able to defeat them.”

“What if he is added? Your body is strong enough to hold his power.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall figure emerged behind Giuliani, looking at Dyson without any expression.

…

Owenson’s carriage, being pulled by a griffin, flew awkwardly over the lake surface. The Fallen Dragon Lake, which was five to six hundred kilometers wide, took the griffin two to three hours to fly across. So the Pope at the curia, who was far away, had already received the news that he had not yet flown off the water surface of the lake area.

Owenson was terrified. The legendary Dragon God Transformation, there were actual Truth mages on the other side?

Owenson really wanted to scold them in Magic Language. How did they gather their intelligence? Weren’t they sending him to death? He was just an Arcanist.

Although his Elemental Javelin was a deterrent to the Giant Dragons, it didn’t restrain the Truth Level Giant Dragons. They could torture him to death using magic alone without transforming.

Thank goodness he did not rush to the front-lines. As soon as Ange created the Frozen Space, he immediately ran away in response. Owenson abandoned the Dragon Knights and fled in a different direction on his own.

After flying for more than two hours, they still hadn’t left the lake area, but they had long lost sight of other flying units. Owenson just relaxed, thinking that he had gotten away, when he noticed a black dot flashing ahead of him.

When he got closer, to his surprise, it was a woman standing on a giant Magic Wand.

Owenson’s heart squeezed, this obvious feature reminded him of a name instantly: Space Arcanist, Hiludi.

At the level of an Arcanist, they generally have their own nicknames. For example, he was called Elemental Javelin. But Hiludi, being infused with both ‘Space’ and ‘Arcanist’, had a more valuable nickname than his.

What a coincidence? Owenson stiffened his scalp and flew straight past Hiludi, stuck his head out awkwardly and greeted, “Greetings to the elements, Space Arcanist, Elemental Javelin Owenson greets you.”

Hiludi was looking at the sky, and immediately said on hearing him, “Hello, hello, you’re the one I was looking for. The Goddess of Beauty City has issued a bounty for you. The prize is a Beauty Tooth Set. Come with me.”

Owenson was stunned. He understood the Goddess of Beauty City placing a bounty on him, but what the hell is a Beauty Tooth set? Is it for engraving teeth?

Owenson watched Hiludi warily, reached out his hand, slowly grabbing an ‘Elemental Javelin’, made of condensed wind element, which looked like a long and slender tornado.
