"Who are you? Stop!"
The guard at the bottom of the palace stopped Dean and shouted.
"Her Highness Ulita has invited me here. Please inform her." Dean's attitude was humble and polite.
The guard looked at him up and down and said, "Please tell me your name."
"Dean."
"You wait here. I'll go inform her." The guard's attitude was not so polite. There was a sense of superiority in his eyes.
After a moment, the guard returned. His attitude was obviously much more respectful. His waist was also hunched. "Mr. Dean, please."
Thousands of steps made the palace look like a divine palace. It was solemn and dignified. When Dean came to the front of the palace, he saw many extraordinary figures gathered in the hall from the open door. Some of them were people he knew, including one or two Pioneers who served as elders of Dragon Clan.
With the strength of Pioneers, these two elders were fully qualified to sit in the palace. But at this moment, they were standing. There were not many chairs in the huge palace. Only four or five people were sitting.
Among them, sitting in front of the dragons was a graceful and elegant lady in a gorgeous robe. Her eyebrows were faintly similar to Aisha and Hathaway. However, she had a more mature and charming charm than the two. However, this charming flavor seemed a bit cold under her indifferent expression. It made people unable to raise their thoughts of blasphemy.
When Dean came to the door, someone had noticed him and turned to look at him.
Ulita was sitting on the throne at the top of the hall. She was holding a scepter and wearing a crown. Her face was dignified at the moment. Her heroic eyebrows gave people an inviolable feeling. Although she was young, her momentum was not weak. She looked down and saw Dean outside the hall. She immediately got up and waved to Dean.
Dean calmly stepped into the hall. His eyes swept across the faces of the people sitting in the hall. Most of the people who were looking at him were a bit curious and had bad intentions. Among them, there were obvious hatred in their eyes. Dean knew that they had recognized his identity, but he did not care.
"Your Highness, this is?" A black-robed old man from the monastery asked.
Dean looked at him and narrowed his eyes. He had seen this person before. He knew the other party and the other party also knew him. He was the one who had secretly captured him and brought him to the Monastery. Dean sneered: "Elder, how long has it been since we last met? Don't you recognize me?"
Mo Glang's face darkened and he said coldly, "When did I know you?"
"It seems that you are old and forgetful. I didn't expect your Monastery to be so short of people. You have a forgetful old man fighting in the front line." Dean didn't seem to be afraid of offending people.
"You!" Mo Glang was furious and took a step forward.
The burly dean who was sitting in the chair in front of him raised his hand to stop him: "Are you the one who used despicable means to take away the outer wall and try to take it for yourself? You really are as arrogant and ignorant as the rumors say! "
"Everyone!" Suddenly a loud and clear voice echoed out: "Don't forget why we are here today. Mr Dean was invited by me. I can let bygones be bygones as long as Mr Dean is willing to join us. I hope that everyone will keep in mind that the God's corpse has been stolen. Do you need me to repeat the serious consequences of this matter?"
Urita was the one who spoke. Everyone looked at her and then at Dean but didn't say anything.
Mo Glang didn't intend to let Dean go: "Your Highness, you let such a person join our team to fight against the invaders. What if he stabs us in the back? This kid is very insidious. He can do anything. I think the Dragon clan has a deep understanding of this point. "
Dean squinted at him: "Didn't you say that you don't know me? How do you know that I'm insidious? Do you people from the Monastery like to slander people? If that's all you have, then I really feel sorry for you and all the civilians. Oh, I forgot, you're an elder of the Punishment Department. You're only in charge of brainless things like fighting and killing, so it's understandable that you're forgetful. "
"You!" Mo Glang was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Don't involve the Dragon clan in whatever you want to do. I'm not familiar with you." The elegant lady who was sitting on the chair looked at Dean. She retracted her gaze and said indifferently.
Mo Glang's face changed. If it was just Dean then it would be okay. But the attitude of the Dragon clan was different. Did the Dragon clan reconcile with Dean?
Dean looked at the Dragon mother. He was surprised but didn't think much about it. In any case, the Dragon clan's way of dealing with Aisha had disappointed him. It was unforgivable!
It was also the first time for Ulita to see Dean. She didn't expect that the person who had stirred up the outer wall would be around the same age as her. She was surprised but also curious. Dean's performance gave her a headache. He liked to stir up trouble. It was hard to appease him. She changed the topic: "Today we have gathered here. I hope that everyone can put down the hatred in the past. Now that the enemy is in front of us, we should unite against the common enemy. In any case, the first goal is to recapture the God's corpse!"
"Yes." Dean nodded in agreement.
The others who wanted to speak in favor of Urita didn't speak as they saw Dean seconding the motion.
Dean didn't care about their eyes. He looked at Urita: "Your Highness, can you let me sit down and talk?"
The people who were prejudiced against Dean were angry. Mo Glang sneered: "You? You want to sit down? Do you know who is sitting here? What are you? You're just a lowly person from the outer wall … "It seemed that he realized that his words were too much. Although he thought that it was a bit inappropriate to say it out loud so he immediately stopped.
Dean looked at him but didn't say anything. He looked up at Urita.
Urita felt a headache. Dean was really good at stirring up trouble for her. He asked for a seat as soon as he came up. The people who were sitting in the hall were the highest leaders of the various forces. If she let Dean sit then it was tantamount to looking down on the others. If she didn't then she was worried that she would anger Dean. After all, the God's corpse had been stolen. With the help of Aisha who had awakened five times, the chances of recapture the God's corpse would greatly increase.
She hesitated for a moment and said: "Alright, sit with Mr. Dean."
There was a commotion in the hall. There was some dissatisfaction.
"Mr. Dean, why didn't Her Highness Aisha come?" Urita immediately pointed out Aisha's name. She wanted to tell the others that Dean was here for her sake.
"I'll handle this small matter. She's resting at home."
"Resting? Don't let her rest when she's going to fight. "Mo Glang sneered. He didn't miss any opportunity to attack Dean.
Dean didn't look at him again as if he didn't hear anything. His disregard made Mo Glang's sneer turn gloomy.
Soon, the seats were moved and Dean naturally sat down.
Dragon Mother, Abbot and others were calm. They knew that Ulita valued Aisha behind Dean. That's why she gave him a seat. Therefore, she didn't want to lower herself to Dean's level.
"Your majesty, can we discuss business now?" The burly man asked. He was the previous patriarch of the Rock Family. His nickname was Rock Devil.
Urita nodded: "It's been a month since the Pagar Mountains. I thought that the intruders had left after they took the fake coffin. I didn't expect them to lurk here. They should have found that there was no God's corpse in the coffin when they left. So they are waiting for an opportunity. Their plan is very thorough and they caught us off guard. Now they have stolen the real God's corpse. I saw the traces left by them on the giant wall. I guess they have left the giant wall. But there is still a long way to go from the giant wall to the abyss area. They should take a rest. This is our chance to catch up with them."
"Your majesty." The Rock Demon's eyes were like torches as he said, "Last time, I asked you if the immortal's corpse was real. You said it was. This time, you said it was real. I want to know if it is real or not!"
Urita had expected that they would ask such a question. She looked at Rock Devil and said: "This time it is real! I didn't mean to deceive you last time. The fake coffin was my father's idea. He was worried that other people would come and steal the God's corpse. So he hid the real God's corpse under the altar and the fake one under the palace. "
"I believe that all of you know that the immortal's remains are hidden under the palace. It's not hard to find out. But the only people who know that the immortal's remains are under the altar, besides Uncle Mick who is already dead, are me and my father!"
"The purpose of this is to prevent the intruders from sneaking into the palace. They will learn about the real God's corpse from your mouth. That's why we have strictly blocked the information."
The rock devil stared at her for a moment and nodded: "I believe it is true this time. But the last time you lied to us, we can't let it go so easily. I will report to the wall master and ask him to give us an explanation. Your majesty, if you didn't lie to us last time, we would have taken advantage of that man's injury to attack them. They would have been dead by now."
"Yes." The middle-aged man with aquiline nose who was sitting next to him said in a cold voice: "If we knew that there was no God's corpse in the coffin then we could have killed all of them. But the result was good. Not only did the God's corpse recover, but he also took them out of the encirclement. Your majesty, you have harmed all of us this time! "
Dean noticed that one of the sleeves of the man was empty. There were several new scars and corroded folds on the face and neck of the man. It was estimated that they were caused by the last battle in the Pagel Mountains.
Urita's face turned ugly. She knew that she couldn't absolve herself from the blame, but she also had her own considerations. The reason why she didn't tell them was because she wanted to keep the information about the real god's corpse a secret. She was worried that there were other invaders lurking in the giant wall. Moreover, at that time, she didn't know that there was a dominator level powerhouse among the six invaders. After that dominator rushed out of the palace, he didn't make a single move, so they mistook him for a master from the Inner Wilderness. That was why they were caught unprepared and defeated.
"This matter is over. Now we should think about how to take back the God's corpse." Dragon Mother frowned.
Urita took a deep breath: "I am responsible for this matter. But I ask everyone to think about how to get back the God's corpse. I'm afraid that something big will happen before my father comes back if the God's corpse is taken away by them."
"The area outside the giant wall is vast. If they have the intention to hide, finding them is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if we find them, we can't beat them …" The Monastery's dean sighed.
"We don't know how many Wings Family's Bat Voice and Magic Mark's Pioneers are. If they lead a team to search, there might be a chance." Rock Devil glanced at the hook-nosed middle-aged man.
"Including me, there are four of them." The hook-nosed middle-aged man said calmly.
Dean sat on the side and listened to their conversation. He suddenly thought of a possibility. He knew that the intruders wouldn't leave, or they couldn't leave. They must still be lurking around the giant wall. But they weren't in a hurry to make a move. Obviously, they didn't intend to act recklessly like before. Even if they went out to search for these people according to the method discussed by Urita and the others, it would greatly reduce the defense power inside the giant wall!
If they casually destroyed the inside of the giant wall, no one could stop them!
They could even ambush outside the giant wall and kill the teams that went out to search for them one by one!
Urita and the others obviously thought of this, but they had to hold on to a glimmer of hope to try and recover.
"Something big happened before the Wall Lord came back. What could happen without the God's corpse?" Dean fell into thought about Urita's words. It made him quite curious. Instead, he wanted to see what would happen after the God's corpse was stolen. But he had an intuition that it was better not to happen. Otherwise, it would be very bad.
"These invaders will definitely kill them one by one. From the looks of it now, if I follow the path they discussed, the chances of them being wiped out are very high. This is a good thing for me, but without them as a shield, the next invaders will be more difficult to deal with. I need time to accumulate more electricity and gunpowder. If I can slow down their killing efficiency …"
Dean's eyes flashed as he lowered his head to think.
