Ariel was suspicious, not understanding what the other party was talking about, since they hadn't taken anything.
Her gaze fell on the people who had entered the Hundred Battles Pass with her: "Did any of you take anything?"
The reason for asking this was not that I intended to hand it over, but rather that I was curious about what could have provoked such anger in the other party.
Stop pretending!
A general roared, "All the resources inside the city have been looted! Don't say this wasn't your doing!"
That was a massive amount of resources; one or two people couldn't possibly move it. In their view, it must have been these people who took it together. And that wasn't all; the treasure vault was even looted, with all the floor and wall tiles stripped away. They were even more despicable than locusts.
Ariel's face darkened. What a joke! How could they possibly take away so many resources in such a short time? It seems that the other party is deliberately causing trouble!
“We didn’t take it. Given our current relationship, there’s no reason for us to hide it if we did. Don’t try to frame us!”
An old man next to Ariel spoke up, his eyes cold.
The two sides were highly charged and locked in a tense standoff.
Su Qing, standing below, felt somewhat embarrassed. She had taken all the credit, yet these people were taking the blame for her.
I never expected this to happen. It's all a coincidence, it's fate. If you have to blame someone, you can only blame God... ah... no, God!
Su Qing comforted herself in this way, which made her kind heart feel a little better.
However, he felt he should do something. Golden light flashed in his eyes, and his third eye opened instantly between his brows. Su Qinglong's claw blocked Ariel.
Honestly, he was really worried about offending this rich woman, since he would have to beg for food from her in the future.
Two groups of people were still facing off in the sky, the atmosphere tense and a battle seemed imminent.
At that moment, sparks flew from one person's body after another, accompanied by a series of crackling sounds.
One by one, little black figures with naked bottoms made a dazzling appearance.
Everyone was bewildered. After a brief moment of shock, Ariel felt like she was going blind.
Although she is domineering, powerful, strong, and indifferent to many things, she is still a girl at heart, and is currently bearing pressure that she shouldn't have to bear.
He quickly turned around, landed in the city, and disappeared into a room.
But other people were in shock for longer than she was, after all, they were firsthand witnesses.
After regaining their senses, they fell silent and turned to flee without a word. At this moment, no one was in the mood for fighting anymore; their minds were a jumbled mess.
Who developed this insane magic? They attributed everything to a type of fire magic, which is not very harmful but extremely insulting.
Having prevented a war, Su Qing suddenly felt incredibly noble, as if the back of his head was radiating golden light.
After composing a few more poems to praise himself, Su Qing prepared to leave and return to his room to rest. He also took stock of his spoils of war. Although most of these items were war resources, there was one that could be used to activate a skill. Su Qing planned to go back and take a closer look before deciding whether to activate the skill.
But just as she took a step, an old man approached, his face dark. It wasn't that he was dissatisfied with Su Qing, but rather that he had just suffered a great humiliation.
At such an advanced age, to have my buttocks exposed like this, I'll never be able to face anyone again.
"The lord requests to see you!"
Su Qing immediately realized that the old man was probably going to reward her, and she followed him into the room with great interest.
After Su Qing went inside, the old man closed the door and left, leaving only Su Qing and Ariel sitting in the main seat in the room.
"My esteemed lord, may I ask what business you have with your beloved strategist?"
Su Qing, shameless as ever, spoke as if standing on a city wall, making the women above him want to slap him: "You've done a great service this time!"
Ariel took a deep breath and spoke casually.
"It's what I should do!"
Su Qing smiled brightly.
"The treasure trove must have yielded quite a lot, right?"
"What did you gain?"
Su Qing stared wide-eyed, somewhat bewildered.
Ariel Phoenix narrowed her eyes. Wasn't this guy responsible? But judging from the style, it should be related to him.
However, she didn't ask further, "What reward do you want this time?"
Su Qing spoke up: "Treasure!"
Two words, simple and clear!
Ariel nodded again: "You're greedy!"
Su Qing smiled sheepishly.
"Aren't all those treasures in the vault enough to fill your stomach?"
Su Qing, who had been on high alert and dared not relax, was indignant upon hearing this: "Lord, your repeated testing of me is simply chilling the heart of a meritorious official. I have rendered great service to you, how can you treat me like this!"
Ariel gave a half-smile, unsure whether the dragon was too wary or if she truly had nothing to do with it, unable to glean a single clue from the conversation.
"I'll record this as a merit, and reward you when we get back. But you'll also be participating in tomorrow's battle."
Although today's inexplicable calm confrontation prevented the battle from continuing, the other side will definitely not give up easily, and tomorrow will surely be a fierce battle.
Facing the crazed Kingdom Alliance and the Purple Fire Mercenary Group, who are likely to be half-hearted in their efforts, tomorrow's battle is destined to be extremely difficult.
Ariel no longer intends to let the dragon roam freely as before.
Su Qing seemed quite troubled by this request, since he was a strategist dragon and going to the battlefield was completely out of character for him.
Ariel saw the difficulty on his face and smiled gently: "All the spoils you obtain on the battlefield are yours, and I will also give you a reward of equal value."
