Emma's body was petite, cute, and soft. She looked slim, but she also had a fleshy body. Coupled with her pretty face, which was second only to that of a goddess, anyone would think that such a girl was very attractive. Many people looked at her as if they were looking at Tang Monk's meat. Of course, there was no such thing as Tang Monk's meat in this world, but there was Cyclops meat with comparable effect.
The Cyclops had a large eyeball with a radius of more than one meter. It was a rather rare celestial creature. According to legend, ordinary people who ate the Cyclops meat would have powerful magic talent, and spellcasters who ate the one-eyed meat would become more proficient in magic. Even if Beta said that this legend was true, no one would dare to go for it casually.
That was because every single Cyclops was a Demigod powerhouse, and they possessed extremely high intelligence. Some of the larger Cyclops were even comparable to deities. They had a strong sense of community. As long as one Cyclops was injured, the other Cyclops would see it and chase after the enemy relentlessly. Therefore, even gods didn't dare to provoke this race.
In the game, the players accidentally encountered a dead Cyclops that fell from the celestial realm. Then, it was divided up by the Silver Wings guild. After eating the Cyclops meat, every member of the Silver Wings guild received a magic talent, which varied according to each person's class and attribute growth. There was almost no repetition.
This also greatly increased the strength of the Silver Wings guild. Originally, they were suppressed by the Sapphire Shrine guild, who had the advantage in numbers, but now they were evenly matched.
In the eyes of many people, Emma was like a piece of Cyclops meat. "Eating" her would not only make them happy, but they would also get a territory. This was an excellent thing.
However, Emma was not a girl that was so easy to get. Not to mention that she herself was very strong, just the title of Saintess alone was enough to isolate most people from those dirty tricks in their hearts.
So far, apart from her father and brother, the only man who could get close to her was Beta.
Beta pressed his hand on Emma's small shoulder. Under his hand was the girl's beautiful and enchanting body. He frowned, knowing that it was not good for him to hold an unmarried girl like this, but the situation was special. If he let Emma run over just like that, she would definitely be in trouble.
As a friend, he couldn't let anything happen to Emma.
Kail and Alice, who were standing at the side, also advised Emma to calm down and not get agitated.
Sophie also abandoned her hostility towards Emma at this time and joined the camp of persuading Emma to change her mind.
If it was only Beta persuading her, Emma would definitely not listen. However, with so many people persuading her together, no matter how stubborn she was, she would have to consider it.
Seeing Emma's hesitation, Beta continued, "I sincerely hope that you don't go. If my guess is wrong, then the second prince won't need our help. If my guess is right, then there's no point in us going there, and we'll just lose a few more lives. Moreover, if we are outside, the First Prince might have some misgivings about us. This way, we might be able to save the Second Prince's life. "
Emma turned to look at Beta. The girl's bright eyes were a little worried as she asked, "Really?"
"It's true." In fact, Beta couldn't guarantee that the Second Prince would survive if his guess was right. However, he had to appease the girl, who was already a little nervous and anxious. "Us being outside is indeed a guarantee for the Second Prince's life. As long as the First Prince isn't stupid, he'll have to consider our existence."
"Alright, I'll wait here." Emma nodded at Beta.
Beta heaved a sigh of relief and let go of the girl's soft shoulder.
The group looked at the Royal City from the top of the mountain quietly. The view here was very good, and they could roughly see the situation in the Royal City. Moreover, Beta had the Cloud Dragon bloodline, so he could see further.
If Beta was only 60% sure that the First Prince had set up a trap before, he was now completely sure that the First Prince definitely had a backup plan. However, it was normal when he thought about it. All this time, the First Prince hadn't sent out many troops. It was reasonable to say that he was absolutely no weaker than the Second Prince. Where were those soldiers hiding? Of course, they were hiding.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Royal City to be surrounded by a powerful magic shield. Then, four teleportation magic arrays appeared out of thin air, and groups of black-armored soldiers ran out of the magic arrays. Looking at this scene, everyone on the top of the mountain gasped. Even though they were very strong, it would be extremely difficult to escape from such an encirclement.
Even with Mystra's Mansion, it wouldn't be effective. The magic shield that surrounded the Royal City was a masterpiece of the Monochrome Magic Tower. Not only could it trap enemies or prevent external enemies from invading, but most importantly, it also had the ability to isolate Spatial Jump. In other words, inside this magic shield, they wouldn't even have a chance to hide in Mystra's Mansion's space.
Looking at this scene, Kail heaved a long sigh. "Fortunately, our teacher is strong, or we would all be trapped inside. It's a pity that the Second Prince didn't listen to our teacher, or he wouldn't have ended up like this. "
Alice and Sophie, too, looked scared.
Emma's face was pale, and her pink lips were trembling slightly. She had a good relationship with Ignatsu. Now that she saw this situation, she knew that her second brother was in big trouble.
Unfortunately, she couldn't help, but soon her eyes were filled with hope. She looked at Beta, looking at him expectantly.
Beta didn't like Ignatsu. It had nothing to do with the other party's abilities, but it was purely a matter of personal preference. A prince with too much pride, who didn't know how to tolerate, and who didn't even know how to listen to the opinions of others, wouldn't be very good at ruling even if he became king.
In contrast, although the First Prince was surly, he knew how to be arrogant in the open and keep a low profile in the dark, which immediately drove the Second Prince to a dead end. Such a person might not make Hollevin better, but he wouldn't make it worse either.
While Beta was considering how to rescue the Second Prince, intense magic waves suddenly came from next to them, and then a black-robed man appeared not far away from them.
They all recognized the black-robed man, who was the First Prince's Spatial Mage.
Beta and the others didn't expect the other party to catch up so quickly. Just as they were about to attack … When they were about to attack, the man opened his hands and made a gesture of peace, indicating that he had no weapons in his hands.
"Mr. Beta, don't be in a hurry to attack. I'm here to make two deals with you. "
Beta asked Joan Of Arc to scan the hilltop. Confirming that there were no outsiders, he temporarily dropped his wariness and asked, "Two deals?"
"Yes, two deals. One is the trade request of the First Prince, who will be the future king, and the other is the Monochrome Magic Tower's request. I think you should listen to both. Maybe you'll feel that you didn't waste your time. "
Emma walked over to Beta's side and gently tugged at his shirt.
Looking at the girl's expectant eyes, Beta secretly sighed and asked, "Before I listen to your trade request, should I ask something? The capital's work must've been the result of the Monochrome Magic Tower's joint efforts. The four teleportation magic arrays were able to fool our senses. They must've been triggered by the technology of the magic arrays. "
The black-robed Mage was rather surprised. "You know such technology? That's rare. "
"I've heard of it before."
Beta lied. He knew the technology of triggered magic arrays too. There was a triggered magic array on the queen's inner thigh that he had drawn. However, that was a small magic array, while the capital had four large magic arrays. It was a very difficult challenge to apply any technology to a large scale. The difference between the two technologies was as unbelievable as the difference between clouds and mud.
"You're truly a knowledgeable genius," said the skinny Mage in admiration. "The layout of the capital was indeed the work of the Monochrome Magic Tower. I've answered your question. Now, can you tell me the contents of the two deals?"
Beta raised his hand. "Please go ahead."
"First of all, the first prince's trade request." The skinny Mage smiled. "The first prince feels that you're all talents of Hollevin and shouldn't be lost in internal strife. So, the first prince doesn't intend to continue hunting you. He can even consider agreeing to the conditions that the second prince has agreed to. He doesn't even need you to pledge loyalty to him, as long as you swear to the gods that you'll come to the royal family's aid if they're in danger in the future."
Generous! That was Beta's opinion of the first prince's deal. He didn't expect that the perverted and lecherous first prince had such a side.
"What about the second trade request?"
The black-robed Mage smiled. "We'd like to have the magic model of your mansion. As for the price, please name it, and we can negotiate."
Beta thought for a moment and said, "Let's combine the two deals into one."
The black-robed Mage was slightly confused and asked, "How do we combine them?"
"We can stop opposing the first prince, and we can give you the model of Mystra's Mansion, but I hope that the second prince can survive and that the first prince can give him to us."
The black-robed Mage thought for a moment and said, "That's difficult."
"It's not difficult. Since the Monochrome Magic Tower has set up such a grand scheme, I'm sure you'll have a say in front of the first prince. " Beta looked as if he had seen through the other party's secrets. "Besides, the second prince is a failure right now. I don't think he has any chance of turning the tables. Moreover, I believe that with the eldest prince's personality, he must be very happy to see his enemy living under his own shadow. "
The black-robed Mage smiled. "You have a point. You're the best spellcaster I've ever seen at bargaining. I'll go back and ask the first prince, but don't get your hopes up. "
After that, the black robed magician immediately disappeared into the air.
