Chapter 565 Negotiation

Looking at the flames that suddenly appeared in front of him, a trace of surprise flashed across the face of the centaur leader Jello.

As a centaur who grew up on the vast grassland and was free and proud, he just wanted to scare Mike so that he could show his backbone as a centaur to this nominal leader and actual partner.

But he didn't expect that Mike would attack him directly.

Instinctively, Jello wanted to defend his behavior to Mike.

But Mike didn't give him this opportunity.

"Roar!"

With a piercing roar, the black and red fierce fire suddenly deformed and turned into a huge flaming raven that swooped down on the centaur Jello.

The black and red flames immediately filled the centaur Jello's whole body. He screamed in fear and rolled madly on the conference table.

But these conventional self-rescue actions were all meaningless in front of the fierce fire.

Finally, the screams in the conference room gradually disappeared, and the centaur Jello disappeared completely under the burning of the fierce fire.

That's right, he disappeared. He didn't even leave a trace of ash, and completely turned into nutrients for the burning of the Fiendfyre.

At this time, the Fiendfyre Raven that devoured the centaur Jello glanced at the other representatives with contempt, and then flapped its wings and flew, landing on the chandelier in the conference room and looking down at everyone.

It was not until this time that everyone on the scene reacted.

Benjamin, Franklin and others almost instantly drew out their wands and pointed them at the opposite people.

However, such an action did not make much sense, because Catherine and others had already been frightened by the scene that just happened in front of them, and they were still staring blankly at the place where the centaur Jello was originally.

"Oh, centaurs. I have dealt with them in the Forbidden Forest when I was at Hogwarts. At that time, they gave me the impression of being weak, arrogant and stupid." Mike fiddled with the wand in his hand and said in a deep voice, "I originally thought that their bad character was caused by the closed environment in the Forbidden Forest. Centaurs in other places should be easier to get along with. Unfortunately, it seems that I was wrong. Centaurs are all hopeless.

I have always felt that weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, but arrogance is.

Since centaurs are all such people, they are not qualified to join our alliance.

Arthur, go and deal with them all."

"Leave it to me, Mike, I am best at hunting demons."

Arthur walked out of the door with a black polymer sword in his hand with an expressionless face. As he walked, his eyes kept wandering on Catherine, as if he was looking for the vital points on them.

This cold look made Catherine and others shudder.

At the same time, the death of the centaur Jello also reminded them of something again.

That is the man in front of them named Mike Townley, a legendary wizard who can rival Chris Flint!

Then, the mermaid Lilith and the Muggle wizard Karen became more humble, and although the goblin Tongmen and the witch Catherine were not as humble as the former, the original pride in their eyes also disappeared.

"Mr. Townley, I hope you can understand that we are allies, and we will always support you."

Catherine said solemnly, and at the same time, the Tongmen on the side finally reacted, grinning, revealing a mouth full of gold teeth inside and said to Mike:

"Yes, we are definitely the closest allies!"

"Oh? Really?" Mike pretended to be surprised and said, "But what you did some time ago is not what a qualified ally can do."

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across the faces of Catherine and others, especially Karen. As a force that Mike had been cultivating from the beginning, it was really despicable to betray Mike for the sake of profit.

Fortunately, Karen was not a person who cared about his reputation. The embarrassment on his face soon disappeared, and then he laughed twice and said:

"Mr. Tang Li, the previous things are over, and the important thing is our future cooperation, isn't it?"

"I am not a generous person. If you want me to forget what you did before, then it depends on what kind of sincerity you can give."

Mike squinted his eyes and looked at Catherine and Tongmen. The main targets of his blackmail this time were these two guys.

Facing Mike's oppression, Catherine and Tongmen thought of the fate of the centaur Jello before, and soon they couldn't hold on.

"Mr. Tang Li, I can provide you with a low-interest loan of no more than one million gold galleons for free. What do you think of this?"

Tongmen gritted his teeth and said, with a very painful expression on his face, as if this was the best condition he could offer.

When Catherine saw that Tongmen had spoken, she gritted her teeth and said,

"Mr. Townley, I understand that your Los Santos Group has recently been subjected to very strong suppression by the Ministry of Magic of Yingguo. We, the Daughters of the Federation, can provide you with the greatest degree of political protection. Although this cannot change the final outcome, it should be able to greatly alleviate your current situation."

Mike's face flashed with disdain when he heard this. He arrogantly crossed his legs and said,

"That's it?"

After that, looking at the shocked eyes of Catherine and Tongmen, he continued,

"I'm almost losing my patience.

Tongmen, don't talk to me about loans anymore. Gold Galleons have no meaning to me. What

I need are those fire dragons and sphinxes that you goblins keep in Gringotts! When you go back, gather all those beasts immediately, and pull them all out when I give the order.

Catherine, don't mess with me about those things.

I know that each family of your Daughters of the Federation has trained a lot of wizard warriors. Pull them out this time. I need their strength."

"That's impossible. We can't give you what you want."

"Then don't talk about it. You can wait for our revenge."

Tongmen's muscles froze. Compared with Chris, he was more reluctant to offend Mike.

After all, the former was an official organization and would only fight him when the rules allowed it, but the latter was different. A guy like Mike would never play by the rules with you.

They were small goblins and could not withstand Mike's revenge.

With a bitter face, Tongmen was about to bargain with Mike again, but was stopped by Catherine.

Tongmen turned his head in confusion and saw Catherine's eyes flashing with excitement. She asked Mike carefully:

"Mr. Townley, what do you want the Gringotts guards and wizards to do?"

Mike raised his mouth and said meaningfully:

"What do you think?"

Catherine took a breath and hesitated for a moment before continuing:

"Are you sure?"

As soon as these words came out, before Mike could speak, the Fiery Raven on the chandelier let out a terrifying roar, as if mocking Catherine's ignorance. Seeing this

, Catherine exhaled a breath of foul air and said:

"Then as you wish, Mr. Townley, I will support you to the best of my ability."

Mike nodded with satisfaction and looked at Tongmen again.

The latter's eyes kept turning, as if thinking about the twists and turns.

After a while, he smiled and bent down to Mike and said,

"Me too. I will prepare the beasts you want for you in advance."

"Haha, you are sensible. Don't worry, I will not fail." Mike said slowly, and then cast his eyes on Karen and said, "Karen, to be honest, you can't give me any help at all. Even everything you have now is thanks to me. Because of this, I am very disappointed with your previous actions."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Townley!"

Karen knelt on the ground without hesitation and began to kowtow to Mike.

Seeing this, Mike did not stop him, just smiled and watched.

It was not until Karen broke her forehead and the deep red liquid flowed all over her face that he said,

"Okay, there will be no next time, understand? After you go back, organize all the people under your command. I will be useful."

"Yes, Mr. Townley."

Karen stood up from the ground shakily, but still did not dare to deal with the injury on her forehead. She could only sit on the chair and gasp.

Then, Mike looked at the last representative present—the mermaid Lilith.

"As for you..."

Mike had just opened his mouth when the other party couldn't wait to shout:

"We mermaids are willing to do anything! No matter what you want to do, we will satisfy you!"

After saying that, the charming Lilith even licked her lips with her tongue.

The meaning is already very clear.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that the mermaids only have the function of entertaining people with their beauty.

After all, as aquatic creatures, they can't move on land for a long time, which makes their combat effectiveness very limited, and it is almost of no help to Mike's next action.

After thinking for a moment, and secretly glancing at Penelope who was staring at him murderously, Mike finally sighed secretly, pretending to be righteous and said:

"As for you, just go and be the cheerleaders, sing and dance for everyone to cheer up."

A trace of disappointment flashed across the face of the mermaid Lilith, but she still bowed and said:

"As you wish!"

Hearing this, Mike finally smiled on his face. Things have come to this point, and his goal today has been roughly achieved.

He stood up from his seat, looked at everyone and clapped his hands, saying:

"Then everyone, let's end today's meeting here. I wish you a pleasant afternoon."

"You too, Mr. Townley."

Catherine and others said in unison.

Then, they left the meeting room one by one.

Of course, the mermaid Lilith, whose entire lower body was immersed in the bathtub, could not leave alone, so Karen accepted this small request to help the beautiful lady leave the meeting room very gentlemanly, and took her out of the meeting room.

Although, the wound on his forehead was still bleeding.

Looking at their gradually receding backs, Mike smiled and shook his head.

As a man, he really understood Karen's mind.

It's a pity that this Lilith is far from being as innocent as she pretends to be on the surface. I'm afraid Karen won't be able to get close to her in a short time.

And just as Mike was thinking about it, he felt two soft balls sticking to his back.

"Mike, I have already sent out the invitations, and most of those people have clearly stated that they will be there." Penelope frowned and said, "But are you really sure that we will win? I... I am a little uneasy."

Hearing Penelope's somewhat erratic voice, Mike smiled slightly, kissed Penelope's face and said:

"I will not fail!"

Hearing this, Penelope breathed a sigh of relief, but the haze between her eyebrows still lingered.

...

At the same time, in the Ministry of Magic, Chris and his men were also holding a meeting.

However, compared with the meeting where the atmosphere was barely lively at Mike's side, Chris's meeting was much more dull.

Everyone except Chris lowered their heads and said nothing.

They knew very well that since the defeat in the battle at Hogwarts, their minister had gone completely crazy.

After all, the series of orders that Chris later issued against minorities were not something that normal people could do.

At this moment, it was better for them not to stand out.

And Chris, who was sitting at the top, also remained silent at this time.

Chris tapped the table lightly with his fingernails while thinking.

According to what he had gathered before, Dumbledore had at least two Deathly Hallows.

One was the Elder Wand, and the other was the Resurrection Stone.

Now that the elder wand is in Mike's hand, there is a high probability that the resurrection stone is also in Mike's hand.

This is a bit unacceptable to Chris.

You know, if this continues, Mike Townley is likely to collect the three deathly hallows before Chris, and thus obtain the secret to defeating death!

Chris's men think that Chris is crazy, because they look at the problem from the perspective of maintaining the Ministry of Magic of Yingguo.

Chris suddenly raised the suppression of those minority groups to an unprecedented level, which is bound to cause social unrest and affect the rule of the Ministry of Magic.

But what Chris wants now is the deathly hallows.

From Chris's point of view, finding and killing Mike is the most important thing now, and for this, he is willing to give everything!

It's a pity that even if Chris has done this, Mike still hides behind and does not appear.

This makes Chris particularly angry!

'Maybe the pressure I exerted is not enough? '

Thinking like this, Chris's expression gradually became ferocious. He slammed the table and shouted angrily:

"Continue to increase the suppression of those minority groups!"

"How much do you plan to increase it?"

The newly appointed director of the Magic Disaster and Accident Department beside Chris asked calmly.

Upon hearing this, Chris's mouth curled up a cruel smile.

"The regulations remain unchanged, but the starting measures must be changed. Anyone who violates the law will be killed without mercy!"
