Chapter 693 The Queen’s Husband!
"ah!"
As the city lords surrendered, Dosalon, who had been defeated by Older's attack, finally lost his temper and his arm was cut directly by the long sword in Older's hand, causing him to scream.
And Duoardo obviously had no intention of stopping, and continued to chase Dosalon, whose arm had been chopped off, with his sword!
"Duke Edward, please make him stop. I came to your Holy Alliance in the name of a delegation. You have the obligation to protect my safety!"
Dosalon shouted loudly. He finally felt the threat of death and no longer had the arrogance of the previous few days.
"Gevis, this Dosalon is the younger brother of the Beast King of the Orcs. If something happens to him here, he will definitely provoke a war. Now that the Land of Gods is about to be opened, we need to focus on dealing with the descendants of the gods' servants in the Land of Gods!"
Edward did not answer Dosalon immediately, but whispered something to Gervis.
It was obvious that Edward was seeking Gervis's opinion. After all, Gervis obviously had a close relationship with the Elf Queen.
"Duke Edward, even though he paid the price of an arm, this price is definitely not enough!"
Gervis understood what Edward meant and spoke immediately.
"Then talk to him!"
Edward heard that Gervis was about to give in, but he wanted to extort money before letting Dosalon go, so he just let Gervis negotiate directly.
Anyway, they don't need to pay, and I believe that in order to save his life, Dosalon should be willing to pay a lot of compensation.
After hearing what Edward said, Gervis nodded silently, then turned and said to Dosalon who was being chased and fleeing everywhere.
"Prince Dosalon, your affairs with the elves have nothing to do with humans, and humans have no control over the elves!"
"But I have a good relationship with the elves. As long as you are willing to pay a certain amount of compensation, I will help you persuade the Elf Queen!"
"compensate?"
Dosalon's face turned pale instantly.
However, he had previously seen the intimacy between Gervis and the Elf Queen, so he did not doubt whether Gervis could make Olde stop.
When he heard the sound of a sword slashing behind him again, he immediately spoke.
"I am willing to pay 5,000 gold coins as compensation!"
"Prince Dosalon, is your life worth only five thousand gold coins? If so, I am afraid I cannot speak for you!"
Gervis immediately asked back.
"Then how much do you say?"
Dosalon's face was as dark as water, but now that his life was in danger, he had no choice but to compromise.
"One hundred and fifty thousand gold coins! I think this price is worthy of your status as Prince of Dorsalon. And I'm sure that with such a price, the Elf Queen will not refuse it!"
Gervis has also heard a lot about the elves in the past two days.
In particular, most of the elven delegation lived in the outer city, and even the elven queen rented a small manor.
This shows how poor the elves are, and the fact that the elves are poor has nothing to do with Gervis.
But now the Queen of the Elf tribe turned out to be his cheap wife, which was a big deal.
Gervis is definitely going to make some money from Dosalon now.
Otherwise, he couldn't kill him, nor could he extort money from him. Even Gervis himself couldn't bear this.
"One hundred and fifty thousand gold coins? Impossible!"
But when Dosalon heard Gervis's offer, he almost staggered.
This is too fucking dark!
Fifteen thousand gold coins is a huge sum of money even among humans, let alone among beastmen. Although he is a prince, taking out 150,000 gold coins is no different from cutting meat from him.
"Prince Dosalon, if that's the case, then I can't do anything about it. You should talk to the elven prince who is chasing you!"
When Gervis saw that Dosalon refused, he immediately spread his hands and decided not to care about the matter anymore!
When Olde heard Dosalon's refusal, he cooperated very well with Gervis. He immediately increased his momentum by three points and began to attack Dosalon more fiercely!
One of Dosalon's arms had been crippled, and facing such a fierce attack, it was really dangerous.
When he was about to die, Dosalon gritted his teeth and shouted to Gervis who was watching the show: "I am willing to pay 100,000 gold coins. I don't have any more than that! If he really kills me, neither the elves nor you humans will have an easy time!"
"One hundred thousand gold coins?"
Gervis knew that this might be the limit of Dosalon, and immediately said to Alice.
"Alice, what do you think?"
Although Alice was chatting animatedly with Adela, upon hearing Gervis' question, she immediately turned her head and spoke to Olde.
"Father, since he is willing to pay 100,000 gold coins as compensation, then stop for now!"
One hundred thousand gold coins were indeed a lot for Alice, but compared to the life of a beastman prince, it was obviously not as important as these one hundred and fifty thousand gold coins.
clang!
Olde on the other side heard what Alice said and continued to chase for two steps before stopping and retracting his sword.
"Prince Dosalon, now that the elves have stopped, please pay the compensation!"
When Dosalon heard the sound of Olde's sword being sheathed, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, Gervis had already come close to him, and without giving Dosalon any time to delay, he directly stretched out his hand to ask him for money.
Although Dosalon looked unhappy, he knew that if he didn't pay, the elven prince who had just stopped would definitely start chasing him again, so he reluctantly began to take out treasure chests from the space ring.
Then, a number of wooden treasure chests as big as microwave ovens were placed in front of Gervis. There were a total of ten large treasure chests.
Gervis opened and checked every treasure chest, and only after confirming that everything was correct did he call out to the elves in the distance.
"You guys, take all these treasure chests to your queen!"
Then, the young elves came running over quickly, carrying gold coin treasure chests to Alice one by one.
As for Dosalon, after taking out the treasure chest, he went to their place with a gloomy face.
After the issues with the elves and orcs were resolved, Gervis had no time to talk to his cheap wife.
Because there were thirty lords of the Holy City beside Edward, staring at him eagerly, with eyes that were both eager and defensive.
"Dear city lords, thank you very much for your help today!"
"The promise I made earlier is absolutely valid. I guarantee that you won't be short of a single potion!"
"It's just that there are too many of you now. I definitely can't give out so many potions at once! So you need to wait for a while!"
"But don't worry, I will prepare all the medicines for you within a month at the latest!"
Thirty city lords means three hundred potions.
Gervis now only has seven mental power-enhancing potions and physical strengthening potions on him, so it will naturally take some time to configure them and pay them to these city lords.
"God of Killing, we know that it will take some time to prepare so many medicines, but how can we be sure that you will really prepare these medicines for us!"
The battle is now over, and because of the overwhelming numerical advantage, the battle was much easier than expected.
However, precisely because there were so many people, these city lords were worried whether this god of death could produce so many potions.
I hope that this killer will hide again, otherwise all their efforts will be in vain.
After all, the entire Holy Alliance had been looking for this killer, but they couldn't even find his shadow.
If this God of Killing had not shown up at Adela's party a few days ago, they would not have seen the God of Killing in person.
"I can vouch for him!"
Before Gervis could speak, Edward spoke first.
It seems that Edward was involved in today's events because of Gervis, but in fact, from the fact that Batman brought so many descendants of God's servants, it can be seen that the Sky City has been included in the plan long ago.
"If you don't receive the potion by then, my Sky City will compensate you with gold coins of equal value!"
Edward then added.
"Since Duke Edward is willing to guarantee it, we can rest assured!"
Since Edward had come forward to guarantee it, the city lords naturally felt relieved and nodded immediately.
"In that case, the city lords should send the types of medicines you want to the Sky City headquarters afterwards!"
When Gervis saw that the city lords agreed to his payment time, he immediately gave instructions.
"Thank you, God of Killing!"
"Thank you, God of Killing!"
With such generous rewards, the city lords became extremely enthusiastic, which was completely different from their indifferent attitude at the beginning of the war.
However, this is how interpersonal relationships are in the world, and there is nothing much to say.
At this moment, someone suddenly ran up from behind Gervis. It was the maid Anna.
After Anna ran to Gervis' side, she whispered something in his ear. Gervis frowned slightly as he listened.
However, his brows only frowned for a moment, and then Gervis's expression returned to normal. He then looked at the city lords present again and said.
"My fellow city lords, I have two things I want to mention here. I hope you can agree to them for my sake!"
"Kill the God, what do you say?"
The potion worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins was about to be obtained. The city lords now respected Gervis more than gods, and several of them spoke up immediately.
"My name is Gervis Gale! You city lords can call me Gervis from now on!"
After all, calling him "Killer God, Killing God" was not formal, so Gervis simply announced his name. Now he definitely didn't have to hide anywhere, and there was no point in hiding his name anymore!
After saying his name, Gervis immediately started talking about the two things he wanted to say.
"The first thing I want to tell you is that the humans in the Sacred Forest are actually my subjects. We are from an overseas island and now we are in the Sacred Continent. We want to build a city outside the Sacred Forest, named Stormwind City!"
"I hope that the city lords can agree that my Stormwind City will join the Holy Alliance and gain the recognition of the Holy Alliance!"
After Gervis finished speaking, the city lord was stunned for a moment. He never expected that the God of Death had such an origin.
The thirty city lords who had received generous rewards would naturally not offend Gervis, and after they reacted, they expressed their opinions one after another.
"We agree that Stormwind will join the Holy Alliance!"
However, the consent of these thirty city lords plus Edward's dozen or so city lords is definitely not enough.
Because such things must be approved by more than half of the city lords before they can be truly implemented.
So Gervis turned his gaze to the city lords in the stands.
"We agree too!"
Seeing Gervis's gaze, at least fifty city lords raised their arms to the side of their faces as if voting, expressing their agreement with this matter.
Although they did not receive any benefits from Gervis, Gervis is now a mysterious pharmacist.
If they still want to get that potion in the future, or befriend Gervis, they must make their stance clear today.
Naturally, no one would refuse such a favor.
After getting the consent of so many lords of the Holy City, Gervis immediately turned his gaze to Edward.
Edward understood what Gervis meant and immediately spoke to the city lords.
"Although we are not in the conference hall of the alliance headquarters at the moment, all the city lords are present, and you have made a vote! So this matter has been settled! I will have someone issue a notice after I return!"
Edward's words meant that the matter had been finally settled and there would be no more accidents.
When the city lords heard Edward's words, no one spoke out to express any objection.
From then on, Edward turned around and said to Gervis.
"Gevis, although Stormwind has joined the Holy Alliance, since there is no Holy Tree in Stormwind, it cannot be called a Holy City, and it does not have the right to discuss matters as a Holy City in the Alliance! I hope you understand this."
"Yes, Duke Edward!"
For the time being, Gervis does not expect the right to discuss matters. After all, his strength is there. Even if he has the right to discuss matters, who will listen to him without the strength to back him up!
Of course, there is no rush for this matter. He has the seeds of the holy tree. He will figure out how to cultivate the holy tree and strengthen Stormwind City in the future. Then he will naturally have the right to discuss matters.
After nodding in response to Edward, Gervis looked at the city lords with a smile and told them the second thing.
"Thank you, all the city lords, for agreeing to Stormwind City joining the Holy Alliance!"
"Now I will tell you about the second matter!"
"The second thing is actually related to the elves. To be honest with you, the queen of the elves is my wife..."
Wow!
Gervis originally wanted to mention his relationship with Alice first, and then start talking about the age limit for the competition.
But who would have thought that as soon as he mentioned his relationship with Alice, the city lords would explode in an instant, drowning out his words.
"What? This elven queen is the wife of the God of Death? Did I hear that correctly?"
"The Queen of the Elf Tribe married a human? This is too crazy!"
"Isn't this something that has never happened in the Sacred Continent in tens of millions of years?"
"No wonder the Elf Queen was so excited when she met the God of Death just now!"
It’s no wonder that the city lords made such a fuss. After all, the elves not only hate humans very much, but are also extremely proud, even after their decline.
The lords of the holy city were well-informed, but they had never heard of the elven royal family intermarrying with humans.
What's more, now it's not just the elven royal family, but the elven queen is marrying the god of killing, which is even more incredible.
Even Edward, who was standing beside him, stared at Gervis with eyes wide open, his face full of questions.
Everyone could see from Gervis and Alice's previous behavior that they had a close relationship, but no one could have imagined that they would be husband and wife.
Even if the two were once lovers, it would be easier to accept. After all, in this world, husband and wife are husband and wife, and lovers are lovers, and they are all clearly separated.
And if the two were really husband and wife, how could the elven royal family not object?
Of course the city lords didn't know, and in fact, even if the elven royal family objected, it wouldn't matter.
Because what Alice told them was that she and Gervis were already in a fait accompli.
Moreover, she is the only female heir of the elven royal family. Even Aldo, the father, has to accept Gervis with a pinch of his nose, otherwise Alice will not be willing to be the queen.
