The same morning. Scott consortium.
Everyone was arguing fiercely in the council hall.
Chaistov frowned as he waited for the debate to die down. He pressed his hand on the table and said: "Everyone, please be quiet!" His voice immediately covered the discussion in the hall.
Everyone looked at him with their mouths slightly open.
Chaestov said coldly: "It's over. It's meaningless to blame each other. If I remember correctly, when Rosie came back and offered to buy Master Dean's new magic at the price of a legendary item, no one agreed. What's the point of regretting it now?"
Everyone had a complex expression as they heard his words. They looked at each other and sighed.
Rosie who was sitting next to Chai sighed. She didn't take it seriously when she heard the words of Dean's young butler. That's why she only mentioned it symbolically in the council. She didn't insist on it. Perhaps if she insisted on it then the situation would have changed. If the proposal was passed then it would be a huge change for the Scott consortium, the Chai family and herself. Unfortunately, the opportunity was in front of her but she didn't insist on it …
"Hey! If we had been braver, we would have been able to purchase a new divine system for the price of a legendary divine spell. How could we not dare to trade a grain of sand for a grain of gold … "An old man dressed in noble attire shook his head with a bitter smile, his face full of regret.
Another person said bitterly, "Initially, we mocked Master Du for being too arrogant. Now, it seems that we were too arrogant."
Chai looked at the crowd and shook his head. He sighed in his heart but he didn't feel too sad or indulge in the things he had lost. He immediately said: "Everyone, this matter is irreversible. The current priority is to have a good relationship with master Dean. In addition the military sent news yesterday that they need to buy a lot of steel materials. This is an unprecedented order for our consortium. Among the six consortiums only our Scott consortium is in the mineral industry. Our steel is ten times more than the other consortiums combined!"
"The other consortiums will take the opportunity to raise the price if they want to make money. We have to find out the base price of the other consortiums as soon as possible. We just need to raise the price a little above the normal price and grab all the orders!"
Everyone became serious as they heard Chai's words. However there were still a few people who couldn't help but sigh.

Phillips Avenue. Magistrate.
Inside a Divine Official's office, there were seven or eight Divine Officials sitting inside. They would occasionally walk around and pass some documents to each other. They were all wearing the same Divine Official uniform. The pure white fabric was outlined with golden cloud patterns, and the cuffs were fiery red like two flaming clouds. They were extremely beautiful.
"Wow, the youngest magic master in history, my god!"
"Hey, look, it's written here, a 16 year old double legendary level master. Double legendary level! There aren't many masters who can make legendary items in the Temple. It seems that only master Skagen and master Timarie are able to make double legendary level items!"
"So he is the third master with two legendary level items? You said he was a traitor and colluded with the barbarians. I thought it was very strange. Why would a high-ranking oracle collude with the barbarians? Look, he even donated a legendary divine spell for free. If such a person said he would collude with the barbarians, I wouldn't believe it. "
"You guys, you call yourselves priests. Before there's any evidence, any appearance is false. It can't be used as evidence, let alone as a reference."
"What do you mean? Do you suspect him of colluding with barbarians?"
"I didn't say that. I don't agree with him colluding with barbarians. I don't think he is a good person. In short, the evidence is the truth. I only believe in the evidence!"
"Well, I don't want to talk to you idiot."
In the office, three to five priests gathered together. They were holding the newspaper and talking.
In the corner, a slender figure was sitting in front of her desk. Her beautiful hair was combed to the back of her robe. She quietly looked at the newspaper in her hand with a quiet smile on her face. She said to herself in a very low voice, "I knew you wouldn't do such a thing. You're not that kind of person. You yearn for peace. Everyone has wronged you …"
Speaking up to this point, his expression suddenly turned gloomy. "I've also wronged you in the past …"
She was silent for a moment as she slowly turned the newspaper. Suddenly, a report fell into her eyes. Her face turned pale. "Go to the battlefield …"
…
…
It was raining again.
On the golden wall.
Auburn looked at the rain falling from the dark clouds in the sky. His tired face was pale. He had been commanding the battle for several days without any rest. The dark clouds hanging over their heads were like the god of death hovering in the sky, always looking down at them. His heart tightened every time the rain fell because it was the signal to start the war.
"Pass down my order. Get all the soldiers to focus and defend the city walls with all their might!!" Auburn clenched the edge of the high wall. He gritted his teeth and said: "If the wall is there, we will be there. If the wall falls, we will die! We have no way to retreat! We have to fight!! "
"Yes!" Adjutant Junlang bowed his head and left.
As the rain gradually became heavier, the barbarian army that was stationed more than ten miles away on the plain in front of the Golden Wall was advancing in a majestic manner. Like the rising tide, they swept towards the already damaged Golden Wall.
Auburn took a deep breath. The cold air flowed from his nose into his lungs. He pulled out his sword and roared: "Shoot!!"
Whiz whiz whiz!
The black arrows flew out like a curtain of rain, enveloping the plains outside the Golden Wall. After that, they fell rapidly, and the barbarians who were charging at the forefront were immediately thrown off their horses. They were pierced by the sharp arrows, and countless of them were killed or injured.
However, there were some barbarians who were holding shields. They used the shield to block the arrows and successfully rushed all the way to the high wall.
There were more than a hundred figures standing under the high wall. All of them were wearing armor that was different from that of the soldiers. It was the Hunter's Armor. Their weapons were also different from the standard weapons of the soldiers. There were whips, swords, spears, hammers, and so on.
"They are here again." Sergei's face was full of blood. His hair was messy. His armor was damaged in several places. He was holding a long spear. His eyes were coldly staring at the barbarians in front of him. He slowly clenched the spear that was covered with blood.
Gwyneth held her sword in silence.
"Ready." Sergei looked back at her.
Gwyneth nodded slightly: "You defend, I attack."
Roar!
Roar!
The shield-wielding barbarians roared as they charged forward. Some of them were crushed to death by the boulders that were hurled down from the Golden Wall before they could even get close. The rest of them were lucky enough to survive the boulders and successfully reached the foot of the Golden Wall.
Kill!
Hundreds of hunters roared in unison. They pulled out their weapons and roared towards the barbarians.
…
…
In the castle.
Dudian was leaning on the bed. His body was covered with a heavy quilt. He was holding the super chip reader in his hand. It was drizzling outside the window, but he was unaware of it. He felt a little cold, so he asked the maid to add another quilt for him.
"Why is it so cold today?" Dudian frowned but didn't think much about it. He continued to immerse himself in the huge knowledge base of the super chip.
Knock.
He didn't know how long it took before someone knocked on the door.
Dudian looked up and saw a human figure outside the wooden door: "What's the matter?"
