That was the reality.
As an evil god, Søren didn't hesitate to cheat the leader of the Githyankis, but as the leader of the Githyankis, he also didn't hesitate to cheat his own people. After Søren ordered the steel golems to gather the captives of the Githyankis, the leader of the Githyankis, named Karnost, didn't hesitate to sell all his people. According to the contract he signed with Søren, he couldn't mention anything about the ancient god's corpse. Otherwise, he would violate the contract and be punished by Søren.
So!
In the mouth of the cunning Githyankis warlord named Karnost, he became a great hero who saved his people.
Because he accidentally angered a terrible evil god, the entire Githyankis became lowly captives. And at this time, their brave leader stood up. Not only did he dare to face the terrible evil god Søren, but he also dared to bargain with him. In the end, he relied on his glib tongue to persuade the terrible evil god. He made him agree to give all the Githyankis freedom in exchange for enough offerings and ransom in the future to satisfy his greedy and endless desires.
Søren temporarily left after releasing these Githyankis.
The whole venue was given to Karnost to perform. This guy's acting skills were definitely at the level of a movie king, and his ability to deceive and coax was also first-class.
He forcibly distorted the whole process.
He changed himself from a stupid leader who made a wrong judgment and caused his people to provoke Søren to a wise, brave, and decisive person. When the whole race was close to destruction, he relied on his own strength to persuade the terrible evil god. He negotiated with the evil god with enough rewards in the future and finally persuaded him to give everyone freedom, and even took back their astral fortress from the evil god.
Of course.
As for how terrible the debt the whole race owed, the clever Karnost only mentioned it a little.
Anyway, it was just that bad.
If it really didn't work, they had ten, twenty, thirty, or fifty years to pay it back. The Githyankis relied on plundering for a living, and there were many valuable mineral wealth in the astral world. With the power of a race, they could always pay off the debt owed to the evil god.
No matter what.
Karnost, the leader of the Githyankis, used his own means to maintain his position, and at the same time, his reversal of the situation inadvertently increased his reputation.
Søren had no objections to this.
He only wanted benefits that he could see. As for what Karnost used to confuse his clansmen, that wasn't something he should ask.
Since the contract had been completed.
Now, it was time to fulfill his promise.
Søren commanded the Steel Golem to enter the treasure vault of the Githyankis, and then moved out all the valuable things inside. According to Karnost, this wealth was used in exchange for their freedom. As for the debt, it was the ransom for the Astral Fortress. Søren was a very kind guy, so he only took away gold, minerals, rare materials, and all kinds of things that Gloria and Fallen Witch liked. He did not completely empty the Githyankis' house, at least he left them enough food and weapons.
"The preliminary estimate is about 8 million Kindler."
Gloria's appraisal ability was excellent. She quickly calculated it and said to Søren, "The Githyankis have hoarded a lot of metal minerals, which should be enough for us to make more than 500 Steel Golems."
"The value of the soul crystals can't be calculated, but there are more than 300 of them."
"As for some other things, I'm afraid we have to go back and appraise them before we can determine their specific value."
Søren nodded to show that he understood.
These were actually small amounts of money. The debt of 36 million Kindler that the Githyankis owed was the real amazing gain this time.
The Astral Fortress was equivalent to an independent half-bitwall.
Søren calculated it according to the price of a small kingdom. Even if he gave the other party a discount, the debt owed in the end was still as high as 36 million Kindler.
This was a debt that was neither too much nor too little.
If it was too much, the other party would feel that it was impossible to pay it back, so it was easy for some accidents to happen.
But this price, according to the calculation of the Githyankis, was at most the harvest of the tribe for ten or twenty years. If they were lucky enough to find the Diamond Meteor of the Astral World, or rob a very rich guy, then they could pay it back in five or ten years. With the endless wealth of the Astral World and the ability of the Githyankis to plunder and harvest, it was no problem to get one or two million Kindler worth of things a year.
If it weren't for so many precious resources in the Astral World, the Arcane Empire wouldn't be so obsessed with exploring the Astral World.
The whole process of the handover was very smooth.
Søren moved everything he wanted, and the Githyankis took back their Astral Fortress.
In any case, the tribe was finally maintained.
After Karnost temporarily escaped from Søren's hands, he immediately prepared to teleport away with his people. He really didn't want to see this evil god again.
At least, that was the case until the next installment payment was made according to the contract.
He was now ready to take his people to the lower plane. In order to repay the huge debt owed to Søren, he had to do a few more business without any capital.
As for the debt, it was still impossible. Søren had left a mark.
For a mid-level evil god, no mortal could escape his debt. As long as he wanted to find the other party, it would be useless even if these Githyankis fled to the ends of the earth.
…
Looking at the Githyankis fleeing in panic, Gloria finally couldn't help laughing.
Fallen Witch also smiled as if she was in a very good mood at the moment. She said, "I didn't expect the harvest of this trip to the Astral World to be so great. It seems that we have to come a few more times in the future."
Søren also smiled and said in a deep voice, "It's impossible to be so lucky every time."
"This time, the Githyankis came to our door."
"The probability of encountering other creatures in the vast Astral World is not high. If we encounter a wandering Astral World beast, I'm afraid we can only fight."
A large number of materials were piled up in the storage room of the arcane tower.
With such a great harvest this time, there was naturally no need to continue to collect the Astral Sand. The Githyankis also stored this silver-white substance, and the weapons they forged were also mixed with the Astral Sand.
Gloria began to activate the arcane tower to lock the coordinates, while Fallen Witch activated the Elemental Furnace to prepare for teleportation.
With such a large number of materials, their next research could last for a long time. As for Søren, his attention turned to another aspect.
"Clock's Nirvana Mechanical Mirror?"
He couldn't help but fall into deep thought and murmured, "A dangerous area that only high-level legends can set foot in. I didn't expect the ancient god's corpse to be in such a place."
"It's a bit troublesome!"
Things had to be done step by step. There were a lot of things to prepare to explore the Nirvana Mechanical Mirror.
After all.
This place was famous for having as many legends as dogs!
