"Goodbye." That knight sprang up, and quickly got onto his horse before slipping away without looking back.
Although he might be punished for failing to complete the mission, he chose to flee rather than risk losing his life if he continued to stay here.
What kind of background did this restaurant owner have? He was just an ordinary chef, but the king actually invited him over, and the lord of the Gray Temple even stepped in to protect him personally.
Since it involved someone like the lord of the Gray Temple, this was not something he could control or participate in. He only needed to send the news back as fast as he could, and then wait for orders from the higher-ups.
Meg looked at that departing knight, and cupped his hands at Rolan and Sargeras. "Thank you, Lord and Director Sargeras, for your help."
"Hehe, it's nothing. Mr. Mak, you're welcome. We're just here to eat roujiamo," Sargeras said with a silly smile.
The members of the Burning Legion also smiled foolishly. All of them had shiny bald heads, and looked like gangsters.
"Mr. Meg is a resident of Chaos City. You have the right to reject the rude requests of the rulers of other countries. The Gray Temple's duty is to protect your rights," Rolan said with a serious expression. He glanced at Sargeras, and then at Meg. "I wonder if Mr. Meg is free to make a trip to the city lord's castle now."
"The city lord's castle?" Meg raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect the people on the Hill to act so quickly. He nodded, and said, "Since the lord has invited me, of course I have to go."
"Director Sargeras, the restaurant is not open today. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat roujiamo. Come over earlier tomorrow morning." Meg said to Sargeras. Sargeras should have just returned from the north. He wanted to ask him about the Night Elves' current situation, but since Rolan invited him personally, he couldn't just leave him aside, so he could only postpone the meeting.
"I see. Then we'll come again tomorrow." Sargeras scratched his head, and left with the members of the Burning Legion without saying anything.
"Please," Rolan said, and got into the black horse-drawn carriage first.
Meg locked the door and boarded the carriage. He sat down across from Roland and closed the door. The carriage turned around and drove away. He could barely feel any bumps in the carriage.
Roland closed his eyes and didn't say anything. Meg didn't say anything either. He just looked at Roland calmly.
This lord of the Gray Temple, who represented the law of Chaos City, was also a 10th-tier magic caster. Just now, he was able to make that knight lie on the ground without being able to move with just his aura. It was evident that he was very powerful.
Roland looked very young, probably in his thirties. His long hair was loose, his figure was a little thin, and his face looked ordinary. Even with his eyes closed, he still made people feel awe.
Ever since Chaos City was established, he had established the Gray Temple. The city lord of Chaos City had changed twice, but he was still the lord of the Gray Temple. His appearance had never changed.
There were rumors that he was a demon.
There were also rumors that he was a giant dragon.
His lifespan was much longer than that of a human's, his eternal appearance, and his strength that had never been tested. This mysterious lord of the Gray Temple was covered with a veil.
In Alex's memories, Mag found some sporadic interactions between him and this lord, the most memorable of which was when the two of them had clashed outside Chaos City.
Alex made a strike with his sword, and Roland only released a spell once. It was a draw.
In Alex's life, there were very few draws. It was clear that Roland was very powerful.
When they were about to reach the city lord's castle, Roland suddenly opened his eyes and met Meg's eyes. He narrowed his deep eyes and said in a low voice, "I'm very curious. Who are you?"
"I am me. I'm a flower with a different color." Meg almost answered without thinking. He looked into Roland's eyes calmly and said with a smile, "I'm probably just a chef who likes to mess around and think too much."
Roland stared into Meg's eyes for a while, and a smile appeared on his serious face. "There are many strange people in Chaos City who want to cut off their past. I'm one of them. So, you don't have to worry about us investigating your past. As long as you admit that you are a resident of Chaos City, that's enough."
"That's probably why I like this place," Meg said with a smile.
The carriage stopped. Roland stopped smiling and got out.
Meg followed him out of the carriage. They were already inside the city lord's castle.
Roland led Meg through a long corridor and came to a quiet courtyard. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he felt a powerful spell formation completely enveloping the courtyard.
A hint of surprise flashed through Meg's eyes. It seemed that this was an important meeting place in the city lord's castle.
"Roland, Mr. Meg, you're here," City Lord Michael said with a smile as he opened the door to the only room in the courtyard.
"City Lord, Principal." Meg followed them into the room. Apart from Michael, Novan was also there. The three big shots of Chaos City had gathered together to talk to him face to face, which showed how important this matter was to them.
This room wasn't very big. There was only a round table and four stools in the middle of the room. It seemed that this was where the three big shots discussed important matters.
Michael sat down, and said to Meg, "Have a seat, Mr. Meg. Miss Hill came to talk to us about something. Mr. Meg should know what it is. We're very interested in it, so we want to talk to you face to face."
"Alright." Meg sat down in the last empty seat. If he wasn't mentally strong enough, he would probably have a heart attack facing the three big shots of Chaos City alone.
…
This conversation lasted for more than two hours. Meg told them about his plan to disrupt the internal affairs of the various races so that they would have to give up on their ambition to expand.
Although Meg was very confident in his plan, the information he had was too little, and its accuracy had yet to be verified. Hence, he knew that there might be many loopholes in his plan, or there might be a better alternative.
However, that was what the three of them had to consider. With Chaos City's power, it wouldn't be difficult to obtain first-hand information. There should be a special department doing that all the time.
The three of them listened to Meg's eloquence, nodding and frowning from time to time. When Meg finished, the three of them were looking at Meg in a completely different light.
"Mr. Mak, are you really not going to consider joining the city lord's castle? I've already decided to reserve the position of the chief staff officer for you, "Michael said to Meg.
"In comparison, I prefer to be a chef." Meg shook his head with a smile.
