Neuss and the others used their status as the king as an example. They led the army to open up the abyss and look for traces of Aisha. Other independent adventurer organizations were also involved in the search for Aisha. There was no other reason but that this was a mission issued by the new emperor of the empire. The reward was so generous that countless people were jealous. No one could resist!
In addition to the reward of a city, they would help to fulfill a wish. Any wish including resurrection of the dead!
In addition, the person who completed the task would become the king of all living beings!
Whether it was the thugs who pursued power and wealth or the people who had no desires, it was difficult to resist such temptation. Who in this world didn't have a wish and obsession to fulfill?
In addition to the Imperial capital, Wyvern patrollers took the portrait and Dean's mission to the giant wall. They spread the news to every inhabited corner of the empire. Even the walls surrounding the empire were the first to receive the news. Once there was a trace of the person in the portrait, they would immediately intercept it and report it to the higher-ups.
On the first day of the task, Dean received the news that someone had found the man in the painting!
When the news came, he was so excited that he almost jumped up. He immediately went to greet them and saw a few nervous and timid adventurers standing in the hall of the newly built Imperial Palace. Beside them was a metal cage, and inside it was a graceful figure in ragged clothes who was wrapped in chains.
"Aisha?" Dean was startled. He found that it wasn't Aisha. Although the appearance was 70% or 80% similar but the smell was completely different. There was no bloodline power of the demon dragon clan in her body.
"Is this the person you are looking for?" Dean asked straightforwardly. His boiling heart had cooled down. There was a bit of killing intent in his voice.
The adventurers shivered as they were stared at by Dean's majestic eyes. One of them braced himself and said: "Reporting back to the emperor, this is the person we found in the painting …"
"Shit!" Dean roared as he waved his hand. Several people in the hall turned into powder. Nothing was left. They didn't even have time to scream or react.
After killing a few people, Dudian raised his hand and smashed the unconscious undead in the metal cage. Together with the cage, they were flattened.
Neuss and Mason didn't expect Dean to be so angry. They rarely saw Dean in such a big temper. Even if he was in a dangerous situation he wouldn't be so out of control and angry. He wouldn't easily kill people. Although the number of people who died in Dean's hands was uncountable but Dean's principle of killing people was to benefit himself and not to kill innocent people.
Dudian's anger hadn't dissipated yet. He shouted at the two: "If anyone doesn't wipe their eyes and bring this garbage to the prize, they will be punished with death by a thousand cuts!"
Neuss was shocked as he didn't expect Dean's anger to spread to them. He faintly felt that Dean was slightly different from the Dean he used to follow. But he couldn't tell the specific difference.
"Yes," he hurriedly replied.
Dean saw that he was about to leave, but suddenly called out: "Wait."
Neuss quickly stopped.
Dean frowned. The anger in his heart had subsided. He thought for a moment and shook his head: "Forget it. Some people are not deliberately pretending to receive the prize. If we are too harsh, they will be scared off. If they really meet her, they may not dare to confirm that they have met the real person and dare not come to report."
Neuss nodded: "I think so too."
Dean looked at him: "Block the news of today's matter. Don't spread it out."
"I will." Neuss replied.
Dean nodded and left the hall. He returned to his study room.
The next day there was another news.
Dean's excitement was extinguished once again as he saw that it wasn't the real Aisha. But he didn't get angry this time. He just asked Neuss to give him some gold coins.
There was news almost every day for several days. But without exception none of them were the real Aisha.
Dean gradually lost his patience. He didn't have much expectation when he heard the news again.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Aisha still hadn't been found. There wasn't even a trace of her.
But on this day the special envoy of the Fire Dragon Country came to the Imperial Capital. Dean greeted him and the envoy immediately stated the reason. It was to express allegiance to the Qilin King of the Fire Dragon Country!
The Fire Dragon Country was willing to submit to him unconditionally!
Neuss and others were shocked as the news came out. Especially the tyrant king. The Fire Dragon Country bordered their border and they had been in conflict for more than two hundred years. They had never backed down. He was worried that the Fire Dragon Country would send troops to invade the Imperial Capital after the death of the Demon Emperor. He didn't expect to receive a letter of surrender!
"Your Majesty, is it a trap?" Neuss was the first to ask. He had learned to change the way he addressed Dean. He didn't call Dean 'young master' anymore. He was keenly aware that the Dean in front of him wasn't the 'young master' of the past. He was a real cold-blooded and cruel emperor!
Dudian raised his hand and grabbed the envoy. He didn't wait for the envoy to resist as he forcibly explored the envoy's memory. Soon he saw the Qilin King's memory. He also saw the Qilin King's expression when he passed the order.
What surprised him was that the latter's attitude was very respectful when he passed the order. It seemed that the latter's eyes weren't looking at the envoy who was in front of him, but at Dean who was looking at the envoy's memory.
Moreover, after the Qilin Dragon King had passed down the order, he also recited the language of the Magic Worm in the form of a tone. It was a greeting to Dean, expressing his sincere intention to surrender.
Dean retracted his tentacles and shook off the envoy. His eyes flashed with a cold light. It seemed that the envoy knew his situation very well. Perhaps the Qilin King was there during the Federation war, but he was hiding in the dark.
"Emperor …" The envoy's face was pale. He stood up tremblingly and looked at Dean in horror.
Dean coldly snorted: "Go back and tell the little dragon not to act smart. Hand over the military power of the Fire Dragon Country and let the imperial army take over."
The envoy's face changed. He wanted to say something but Dean swept him out of the hall.
Dean asked Neuss after the Fire Dragon envoy left: "Haven't found Aisha? Have you searched all the places? "
"Not yet." Neuss felt Dean's gaze. He didn't dare to look directly at Dean's eyes. He bowed his head: "Most of the areas have been searched. I've found many monsters and undeads. I've also found some corpses that have learned the human language. There are only a few taboo places that haven't been explored. Even the king doesn't dare to step into those places."
