In an instant, Raphael understood Dyrrhus's thoughts and immediately shook his head.
"No, using the Umbra Hand to forcibly blast open the Planar Path is possible, but it would make the Planar Path very unstable. The Planar Path would keep distorting, and chaotic energy would appear. Void Storms and Spatial Storms might appear. At that time, we would lose some people before entering the Raging Flame Battlefield. If we're unlucky, we might lose half of our people.
"Your Shadow Tower's people can take advantage of the void environment there and use Shadow Transformation to avoid the damage of the spatial distortions and Void Storms. Moreover, you have the Umbra Hand and the Dark Night Cloak, so you can quickly pass through.
"But no one else can protect themselves in that kind of environment. Losing a third of your people while walking through the Planar Path is good enough.
"That way, even if we enter the Raging Flame Battlefield, our losses will be even greater when facing the Raging Flame Beastmen.
"No, we absolutely can't forcibly blast open the Planar Path!"
Raphael firmly denied it, but Dyrrhus didn't get angry.
Instead, he chuckled and said, "Alright, then I won't forcibly blast open the Planar Path. Do you have a way to crack this Planar Path as soon as possible? "We'll be in a passive position after three hours!"
Raphael didn't say anything, because Dyrrhus was telling the truth and he couldn't refute it.
After looking around, Dyrrhus proudly smiled.
"That's right, our Shadow Tower's people have a way to avoid the damage of the unstable Planar Path. Moreover, I also have the Dark Night Cloak. Not only can it protect our people, but it can also protect everyone from the dangers of the unstable Planar Path. Even if we encounter spatial turbulence or Void Storms, as long as we have the Dark Night Cloak, no one will be injured. We only need to use mana to support the Dark Night Cloak.
"But, as a condition of cooperation, you have to give me 10% of your harvest in the Raging Flame Battlefield as compensation."
With that, Dyrrhus glanced at the four forces of the Kingdom of Andalusia with a trace of disdain in his eyes.
"As for the people of the Kingdom of Andalusia, you won't be able to obtain too many benefits if you enter. If you want me to protect you through the Planar Path safely, hand over 50% of the Raging Flame Battlefield's profits as compensation. Otherwise, you'll have to find a way to enter.
Oh, that's right, I have to choose 10% of your profits in the end, not the other way around! "
Dyrrhus had a smug look on his face. After he finished saying these conditions, everyone suddenly understood.
"Damn bastard, no wonder you've been demanding to forcefully blast open the Planar Path. So this was your plan! Do you want all of us to serve your Shadow Tower? Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! "
Raphael pointed at Dyrrhus with a shocked expression, shocked by Dyrrhus's conditions.
'Damn b * stard, he's actually planning this. 10% of the profits doesn't sound like much, but the five forces of the Kingdom of Odin Kingdom, excluding the Shadow Tower, would each take out 10%, which would be 50%.
Moreover, the four forces of the Kingdom of Andalusia would each take out 50%, which would add up to 2.5 times, and with the Shadow Tower's own profits, it would be 3.5 times!
Even if there was a difference in the profits of each force, the Shadow Tower's profits would definitely be a lot more than the other forces!
Most importantly, they would have to choose their own 10% of the profits.
This was the most important part …
There would be a lot of gains after entering. There would be mana crystals, magic ores, magic gems, medicinal ingredients, precious items, and so on. The value of these things was different.
The value of a precious item might be equal to 10% of the total profits. If they took the most precious item, although it would only be equivalent to 10%, the difference would be too great.
In the end, almost all the precious items would be taken by the Shadow Tower, and the nine forces would be completely serving the Shadow Tower.
'Damn b * stard, that guy is simply delusional!
Isn't he afraid of offending everyone?
Raphael simply didn't consider Dyrrhus's suggestion.
As for the other four forces, their expressions weren't very good.
The leader of the Burning Tower, Didala, had a dark expression, and he almost let out black flames to burn Dyrrhus' proud face.
10% of the profits? 'That damned rat, Dyrrhus, is really daring to ask for it.
"If he chooses first, then the most precious things we obtained might be taken from the 10%, and the harvest of the Raging Flame Battlefield might be worse than before.
'But if this drags on, it would take three hours for those arrogant fools in the City in the Sky to open the Planar Path.
'Those human-shaped beasts have a very deep understanding of the Raging Flame Battlefield, far more than us. Three hours is enough for them to search for the most valuable things based on their past experiences.
'They might find some strange things that have already been nurtured. Once we enter, not only will we encounter the traps set up by the Raging Flame Beastmen, but we will also encounter great danger and suffer great losses.
'It would be a lot more difficult to get rid of those well-prepared Raging Flame Beastmen, and it would also be very difficult to plunder their things.
'Most importantly, the profits this time might be very small.
'Three hours is enough to change a lot of things …
'Even if we give the Shadow Tower 10% of the profits now, the final harvest would definitely be greater than what we would gain after three hours.
'Damnit, that stinky rat, Dyrrhus, is really lucky …'
Didala quickly calculated this debt. The most important thing was that entering early would allow them to plunder the Beastmen's loot. This was the biggest harvest.
"Alright, Dyrrhus, our Burning Tower can agree to your conditions, but we have to let our Burning Tower choose three things first before letting you choose 10% of the total value of the loot. If you don't agree, then forget it, I'd rather wait three hours!"
Didala was the first to speak, and he used an unyielding tone to cut off Dyrrhus's thoughts of negotiating.
Dyrrhus smiled and simply didn't care.
'These damned guys, are they still negotiating? 'I can't offend them too much. It would be troublesome if I took all the most valuable things they obtained. If I offended them too much, I might not be able to leave the Raging Flame Plane alive.
'Damnit, it would be great if that Heaven Rank powerhouse was here. Even if these guys wanted to do something, they definitely wouldn't dare to do it …'
Although Dyrrhus wanted to swindle everyone, he didn't dare to offend everyone in one go. He had just opened his mouth to give the other side some leeway to haggle. Now that Didala was the first to agree, how could he say anything else?
"Alright, Sir Didala, since I made a promise, I'll naturally keep it. If I can't protect you and lose one person, I won't take the 10%."
Didala was the first to agree, and the other forces had the same idea.
The harvest of the Raging Flame Battlefield was too tempting. Who knew what would happen in three hours? They might be able to obtain more if they were a second earlier.
10% of the profits … As long as the final harvest was big enough, 10% of the profits would be acceptable.
Soon, the Quicksand Tower, the Henry Family, and the Odin royalty representative couldn't think of any other way and agreed to Dyrrhus's conditions. But they all wanted to choose three items before letting Dyrrhus choose the 10%.
Dyrrhus also agreed.
"Sir Raphael, what do you think? Have you thought about it yet? Time is very tight now. If we waste even a second, we might miss out on a precious treasure. "
A brilliant smile hung on Dyrrhus's face, his long and narrow eyes narrowed into slits.
Raphael had a dark expression as he flatly refused Dyrrhus's proposal.
"Dyrrhus, you don't need to think about it. You are dreaming, I absolutely can't agree to your request. As a member of the City in the Sky, even if the profits are reduced, I can't agree to your conditions!"
The City in the Sky was most proficient in arrays. If he agreed to Dyrrhus's request and let Dyrrhus extort him, Raphael wouldn't be able to raise his head in the City in the Sky in the future.
Even if there was a huge harvest, it wouldn't be able to erase this stain.
Facing Raphael's refusal, Dyrrhus still had a brilliant smile on his face.
"It doesn't matter, Sir Raphael, you can slowly think about it. If you don't agree, every second might cause a huge loss. This isn't just the City in the Sky's profits, it might also harm everyone's profits!
"You will agree, but as soon as possible."
Dyrrhus proudly said those words. He wasn't worried that Raphael wouldn't agree and that he would use other forces to kidnap Raphael, making everyone feel that Raphael was obstructing them from obtaining profits.
It was Raphael who would make them encounter greater danger and obtain lesser benefits.
Sure enough, after Dyrrhus finished his words, the Burning Tower, the Henry Family, the Quicksand Tower, and the Odin royalty's people couldn't help looking at Raphael.
Raphael had a dark expression as he hatefully glared at Dyrrhus.
'That damned b * stard …'
'And this group of fools, they were extorted by Dyrrhus, yet they are still siding with that stinky sewer rat, Dyrrhus …'
The situation was in a deadlock, but Dyrrhus didn't care. He had a confident smile on his face. There was no problem on the Odin Kingdom's side.
Then, he casually glanced at the four forces of the Andalusia Kingdom and saw that they were all frowning.
Dyrrhus grinned, disdain visible in his eyes.
'These country bumpkins of Andalusia already have nothing else to say.
'The Odin Kingdom doesn't have a better way. Even the City in the Sky, which is most proficient in arrays, doesn't have a better way. Raphael is about to agree to my conditions. Could it be that the people of Andalusia have a better way?
