He was somewhat confused about the intentions of the Church of the Seven Deadly Sins and spoke with narrowed eyes.
"Alliance? Let's put aside the Church of Pride, Envy, Lust, and so on, but the Church of Wrath is the mortal enemy of our empire. Alliance... are you kidding me?"
The blond man smiled and said, "Of course I know the relationship between the Empire and Rage, but I can assure you that Rage's visit to this secret realm will not be a nuisance to you."
"To show our sincerity, let us help His Highness Otto today."
After saying that, the blond man and the people behind him jumped off the tree branches and immediately formed a formation on the spot. A black aura rose from the formation.
Ryan frowned, not knowing the blond man's intention, and immediately wanted to step forward to stop him, but Qitra beside him smiled and pulled Ryan back.
Qitra whispered a few words to Ryan, and Ryan nodded. Although he didn't trust the blond man and others, he still believed in Qitra.
After a while, the blond man and his men seemed to have gathered their strength, and a dark thread of light shot towards the Demon-Eyed Lizard at a speed as fast as light.
The monitor lizard had no way to escape and the bullet was shot into its body.
This scene stunned both Otto and the monitor lizard.
Otto looked at the direction of Ryan and the blond man distractedly, frowning slightly.
But at this moment, the monitor lizard's eyes were shrouded in darkness, as if it had hallucinations, and began to wave its hands around randomly in place.
Otto's eyes narrowed when he saw this.
Good opportunity!
He took a quick step forward, with the golden spear in his hand surrounded by fighting spirit. The next moment, Otto jumped high and stabbed the spear in his hand into the giant lizard's brain from top to bottom.
Then Otto's fighting spirit surged and he conducted the fighting spirit from the spear into the giant lizard's brain. With a snap, there was an explosion sound in the giant lizard's brain.
Otto used his fighting spirit to crush the monitor lizard's brain, and the monitor lizard fell to the ground with a lifeless look in its eyes.
Seeing the monitor lizard fall to the ground, the blond man smiled slightly tiredly.
"Master Ryan, this is just a small token of sincerity from the Church of the Seven Deadly Sins. I hope you will consider the alliance carefully."
"Qitra will temporarily follow Master Ryan. If you have any ideas, you can tell Qitra and she will pass them on to me."
"Now that His Highness Otto has dealt with the enemy, it's inconvenient for us to stay any longer. Farewell, Master Ryan."
After the blond man finished speaking, he quickly left with the others behind him. Ryan did not stop him, but lowered his head to think about the meaning of the Seven Deadly Sins Church's actions.
On Otto's side, after dealing with the giant lizard, Otto released the imperial combined attack technique.
He stood there weakly, leaning on his gun. After the people of the Wu Empire saw the group of black-robed men who suddenly appeared leave, they came forward to Otto and began to deal with the giant lizard.
Otto was supported by someone and came to Ryan's side. He glanced at Qitra beside Ryan and asked.
"Was that the Church of the Seven Deadly Sins just now? Why would they help us?"
Seeing Otto's weak appearance, Ryan took out a few bottles of recovery alchemy potions and handed them over.
Otto took the potion from Ryan and drank it without thinking. After drinking the potion, Otto felt some strength surge back into his body.
“They want an alliance.”
Hearing this, Otto paused with a strange look on his face.
"Alliance?"
He wanted to say something, but seeing Qitra beside Ryan, Otto held back his words.
At this moment, an imperial soldier found the golden Mist Leader Token from the giant lizard's body.
Everyone looked over, and Ryan and Otto smiled slightly at the golden token shining in the sunlight.
