When the guard ran to pass the message again, it didn't take long for Dean to see Orava get up and follow the guard out. At the same time, the other three pioneers in the Institute gathered towards Orava.
A moment later, Dean saw a silver-haired old man, accompanied by three pioneers in different attire, walking slowly behind the guard. His attitude looked calm and quite imposing.
"Mr. Dean?" Orava's eyes slightly moved when he saw Dean. This was the first time he met Dean. Even when Urita held the crusade against the invaders meeting, he didn't participate. Instead, he let the Deputy Dean participate. He hadn't left Mount Saint Lucia for many years.
"Dean Orava?" Dean looked at him without any greeting smile on his face. He said, "Dean should know the purpose of my visit. I'll get straight to the point. First of all, cooperate with King's City to arrest the criminal Urita. Second, the Monster Institute should cooperate with the royal family like how Aristotle did in the past. Can you do these two things?"
Orava's old eyes flashed with a trace of light. He quietly looked at Dean. This teenager's way of speaking was direct to the point that it was a trace of insensitivity. Moreover, there was no smile on his face. Although the smile that most people wore was also a fake smile, but the latter seemed to be unwilling to fake a smile. Such an attitude made him feel a trace of anger, but he didn't show it. He just faintly said, "Mr. Dean, I'm afraid there is something fishy about the crime of Princess Urita. I hope you won't make a conclusion so easily."
Dean said in a cold voice, "I like to get straight to the point. I don't like to be long-winded. You know what the matter of Princess Urita is like. I came here today not to discuss with you because you have missed the opportunity to discuss with me. I came in person to inform you that you can resist or not, but that means you are my enemy!"
Orava slightly frowned. Dean's tone made him feel extremely uncomfortable. If he were to use one word to describe it, then it would be "overbearing" or even aggressive. However, such a tough attitude also made him think about the cards in Dean's hands and the cards in their hands. After thinking for a moment, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes. He said, "Mr. Dean, since you like to talk so directly, then I advise you not to overestimate yourself. The wall lord will come back at any time. Leave a line for everything, and leave a line for yourself!"
Dean looked straight at him and said, "Are you threatening me? Do you think that with what I've done so far, the wall lord will forgive me when he comes back? Since there is no such thing, why can't I be ruthless? When I get the same result, killing one person is killing, killing ten thousand people is also killing. Why should I kill until I'm satisfied? In addition, I also advise you that the wall lord will not come back for at least two years. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask Urita. She should know what to do. "Orava's face slightly changed.
He naturally knew that the wall lord would not come back in a short time. However, Dean's words made him very uncomfortable. He knew that it was unnecessary to argue with such a madman. He said in a deep voice, "Let's not talk about when the wall lord will come back. Mr. Dean, before the wall lord comes back, you are the king. Our institute will continue to do our research. We will not care about the matter between you and Her Highness. I hope you will not interfere with us. Our institute has never liked to be involved with these things."
Dean quietly stared at him. There was a trace of unnaturalness in Orava's heart. Dean slowly opened his mouth: "Dean, what gives you the confidence to talk to me like this?"
Orava was stunned.
The faces of the three pioneers behind him slightly changed. They looked at Dean in anger. Dean's words were quite impolite!
Orava came back to his senses and a trace of gloom appeared on his gentle face. He said, "Mister Dean, since you have seized the palace and occupied it for so many days, you should know what kind of existence our Magical Creature Research Institute is. Even if His Majesty Aristotle was here, he wouldn't dare to touch an inch of our Magical Creature Research Institute. Don't think that no one can stop you!"
Dean looked at him mockingly and said, "Speaking of which, your confidence is only because the Kingdom of God is behind you. But you should not be so ignorant. There is an old saying that when you are close, you are already in my attack range. As long as I want to, I can immediately take off your head. You have no capital to negotiate with me!"
Orava slightly narrowed his eyes and said, "Since I have come to see you, I am not afraid that you will be stupid. Even if you kill me, my institute will not surrender to you. Moreover, if you kill me, you will also die. The messenger of the Kingdom of God will not let you go. My old bones in exchange for your young life is still worthwhile."
"Can the messenger of the Kingdom of God still search the entire earth for me?" Dean said coldly, "After leaving this giant wall, the world is big. I can go anywhere. It is easy for people like us to change our appearance. Do you think that I will wait for the wall lord to come back and fight him?"
Orava faintly smiled and said, "The world is very big, but both you and I have to live within the wall. Once we leave the Divine Wall, only death awaits us. Although you are strong, you are not even a ruler. Although the area near the Divine Wall is safe enough for you to live, the Abyss region far away from the wasteland is a place that even the Abyssal Walkers have to be careful. Outside every giant wall, there is such an area surrounding it, just like the moat outside a castle. What do you have to cross over? There are thunderbirds in the sky and abyssal monsters on the ground. Where do you think you can escape to? "
"It seems that you know a lot." Dean's expression was calmer than Orava: "But you have forgotten that I have colluded with the invaders. I will leave the way the invaders came. There is no way out. Where do you think my confidence comes from?"
Orava was stunned.
After a moment, his face slightly changed. His forehead overflowed with cold sweat.
He knew that Dean had helped the invaders to escape from the ambush discussed by Urita and others. He also knew that Dean had colluded with the invaders. But he didn't think that the invaders would come up with a way to leave the giant wall and make a deal with Dean!
Now that he thought about it, as Dean said, there was no way out. How could he be so confident?
"To be able to cross the Abyss and trap him here …" Orava's thoughts were a little messed up. This had exceeded his expectations and caught him off guard. Furthermore, it made his previous confidence seem a little ridiculous.
Since Dean planned to leave at any time and had the ability to leave, why would he be afraid of the Kingdom of God behind them?
"Now, is the dean still willing to cooperate?" Dean looked at him with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
Orava felt that his face was a bit ugly at the moment. He tried to keep calm and looked up at Dean's eyes. But what he saw was a pair of black eyes full of strong self-confidence without hesitation. The last glimmer of hope in his heart was also disillusioned. After a moment of silence, he whispered: "We are willing to cooperate with you, just like we cooperated with His Majesty Aristotle."
"It's good that you know what's good for you." Dean looked indifferent: "I will send my people over later to get something from you."
Orava's face was gloomy and he whispered: "I know."
Dean glanced at him and swept his eyes over the three pioneers behind him. He snorted coldly, turned around and flew away from the mountain.
Watching Dean leave, a middle-aged pioneer clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said to Orava, "Dean, this kid is too much. Do we really want to humiliate him? If we stay on the mountain and don't come out, what can he do to us?"
Orava's expression was complicated. He slowly retracted his gaze and sighed: "I underestimated this person. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, it would be hard to believe that such wisdom and such a temperament are actually a teenager."
The middle-aged pioneer said in a muffled voice, "Dean, I don't see any wisdom in this brat. He is also childish, arrogant, and not shrewd at all. If he had a better attitude and talked to us nicely, although we wouldn't agree with him, at least he would be more sensible. How could he talk like that? He is not educated at all!"
Orava shook his head slightly and sighed: "Because he knows that we have to be humiliated. So he doesn't need to give us a good face. Instead, he has such a tough attitude, leaving us no room for manoeuvre. If he was polite, then this matter could be slowly delayed for a while. Ah, I thought that little Urita was already a rare intelligent person. I didn't expect that this boy is ten times better than her. It's hard to believe that the outer wall, where the pariahs live, can cultivate such a talent..."
The middle-aged pioneer felt aggrieved: "Dean, why should we submit to him? We can unite Her Highness Urita and Yi Wang to defend the Holy Mountain. What can he do to us? "
Orava glanced at him and said, "Based on what you've said, he might not be able to break in, but we won't be able to get out either. Don't forget that he asked us to come out and meet him personally. This means that he knows that there are many mechanisms and traps on the Divine Mountain. The reason why the traps are powerful is because they can catch people off guard. Since he already knows, what's the point of these traps? If he can't attack us, then he can attack our branch. But after a long time, we will run out of food and water. How can we resist the sea of people? "
The middle-aged pioneer was stunned and couldn't speak.
"I hope that the wall lord will come back soon. I hope that he won't be too greedy, otherwise..." Orava sighed. He looked up at the direction of Dean's departure. A sharp cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
