"Everyone be quiet. Miss Hikari has something to say." A middle-aged butler dressed in a tuxedo appeared at the end of the banquet. The eyes of the audience were focused on him.
The people who were chatting in small circles immediately stopped talking. They knew that the main event had begun.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the Rose Lord, who looked to be in her early thirties, smiled and said, "Regarding the construction of the new city, the lords who are interested can come in three days to discuss in detail. Today, we are here to talk about another matter. Speaking of which, we are also entrusted by Mr. Holani to pass on a message."
Although everyone had already heard the news, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
There were many people named Horani, but there was only one who could be addressed respectfully by the Rose Lord. That was Horani, one of the three strongest people in the Abyss. He was also the founder of the Ryan Chamber of Commerce. At this moment, when she said this name, everyone knew that the news they had heard before was not groundless. For a time, many people had thoughts in their hearts, and their eyes flashed.
"Mr. Horaney's Ghost Shadow Hunting Group has recently found traces of ice worms at the edge of the swamp area of the devil's pit outside the giant wall. I don't need to introduce the ice worms to everyone. This time, the Rose family is representing Mr. Horaney to pass on a message. At present, Mr. Horaney is preparing a ten-thousand-man hunting team to explore the devil's pit and look for ice worms."
Hikari's eyes scanned the audience. There was an elegant smile on her face. She knew that the prestige of her family would rise after the banquet. After all, to be able to establish a friendship with an abyss powerhouse was enough to make the other families who were coveting them scared.
Dean also guessed the identity of Horani when he heard this. It seemed that the previous gossip that Losik and others had heard was intentionally spread by Rose Lord.
"Lords who are willing to participate will not only have the opportunity to gain Mr Horani's friendship but also get rewards from Mr Horani. Of course, you will also get the friendship and cooperation of our Rose family." Hikari saw that many lords were moved. She smiled in her heart. It was a rare opportunity to work for the abyss powerhouses. Moreover, these families would remember their kindness.
Although she was a grand duke and her status was higher than 99% of the people present, but the lords who stayed until now weren't small characters. The economic and trade cooperation would bring her huge benefits.
"Miss Hikari, can we send people?" Someone immediately asked.
Others looked at Hikari with a trace of passion in their eyes.
"Lords who wish to participate, you only need to send a hunter of the Ten Thousand Slayer level to participate immediately." Hikari smiled lightly. "Of course, the more Hunters that participate, the more benefits we will get after the mission is completed. This time, our Rose Family is prepared to send two Dominators, five Demon Generals, and ten Ten Thousand Man-killing experts to help Mister Horani obtain the Extreme Ice Worm!"
There was a commotion in the crowd.
Although he knew that the Rose Clan was very strong, he did not expect that they would send so many people to participate. Just the two Rulers alone were invaluable, and they were also the foundation of the Rose Clan's standing among the great clans. It should be known that a lord like Loxik, even if he emptied his entire family, could only cultivate one Demon General. However, the Rose Clan had sent five Demon Generals and two Rulers, not to mention a hundred experts who could kill ten thousand people. Once they lost this kind of manpower, it could be said that the Rose Clan would suffer a devastating blow. Perhaps they would instantly fall from being a great clan in the capital to a small or medium-sized lord like Loxik.
Moreover, once the Rose family was weak, their industries would be a big fat piece of meat. Competitors who had been coveting for a long time were likely to take the opportunity to swallow them. At that time, it was unknown whether the Rose family's flag would continue to fly in the wind.
"Miss Hikari, what if the search fails?" Someone asked worriedly.
Hikari glanced at the person who spoke and smiled, "This time, Mr Horani will personally lead the team. There is basically no possibility of failure. Even if it fails, Mr Horani will give the corresponding compensation. At the same time, we will get Mr Horani's protection. If it succeeds, the benefits will be even greater. I don't think I need to say more. Everyone knows the stakes."
As soon as these words fell, everyone looked at each other.
The lords present were all aristocrats in charge of a region. Unlike the hereditary aristocrats in ordinary dynasties, here, the aristocrats competed with each other for resources. Few of the lords who could become lords were hedonistic children. Everyone thought about it for a bit and knew how great the benefits were. If it failed, the people they sent would be lost. It would be a blow to the family, but they could get the protection of Mr Horani. It could only be said that it was a gain.
If it was successful, then Horani would get the ice worm. His strength would go a step further and he would be able to dominate the other two abyss forces. He might even be on an equal footing with the wall lords. In this way, they could naturally be listed as part of Horani's faction. They would be able to trade with each other and resist the enemy together. There were too many benefits.
No matter how they looked at it, it was a profitable business.
Just as everyone was getting excited, a voice rang out, "Miss Hikari, the Ghostly Shadow Hunting Group and the Ghost Knifeman Battle Group under Mr. Horani are full of talents, why do you want us to participate?"
Hikari glanced at this person and said: "Good question. The reason is very simple. Mr. Horaney's two major corps are restricted by the Wall Lord and cannot be fully used. Secondly, if Mr. Horaney can get the Extreme Ice Worm this time, his strength will go further. At that time, he will naturally expand his business circle. This time, letting everyone participate is also giving everyone a chance. Those who participate will become part of Mr. Horaney's business circle in the future. I won't mention the benefits, everyone can consider it."
Many people whispered as they heard the words.
Dean was thoughtful. Could the ice worm make the abyss a step further? In other words, the abyss wasn't the end. There were stronger existences above it. The ice worm was similar to the existence of god's marrow. It could enhance the strength of the abyss.
It seemed like it was better to have more of these things.
He was more determined to participate as he thought of this. He could go to the kingdom of god at any time but the ice worm was extremely rare. If he didn't get one from Amelie tribe then he wouldn't be able to become an abyss. He thought about the giant wall of Sylvia for hundreds of years but there was only one abyss. Moreover Aristotle's daughter was just a master.
In fact, the evolution system was no different from talent. Talent could only be used in combat. Life itself needed nutrients. Even if it was a disabled or mentally retarded child, as long as they had magic marks and god's marrow, they could become a pioneer. However, even Aristotle couldn't make his daughter become the second abyss in the giant wall. It could be seen how difficult it was to deal with the ice worm!
Aristotle would leave the giant wall for five years or ten years. Didn't he want his daughter to become an abyss? Would she be able to suppress the other forces within the giant wall after he left?
Unfortunately he didn't have the ice worm. Even if he went to the kingdom of god he wouldn't be able to get it. It showed how rare this thing was!
But thinking about it, an Extreme Ice Worm could create an Abyssal Demon. Even if you had mountains of gold, you might not be able to buy it!
"Miss Hikari, the Leroy family is willing to participate. I will send two demon generals and five Ten Thousand Executioners to assist Mr Holland!" After a while someone in the crowd shouted.
Everyone looked at the person who spoke. They were secretly speechless. Two demon generals! It was a big deal!
After someone took the lead, the others also expressed their views.
Losik slowly moved to Dean's side: "Mr Dean, should we participate?"
