Chapter 288: 230: The Light God Country Must
Vincent Wolf thought for a moment, then tentatively asked,
“Take over the Bright Secret Realm?”
Aiden Winter was speechless.
“Could you be realistic, please? How can one grab such a thing? The gate to the Secret Realm is in our territory! Plus, do you think our country would just idly watch as a four-star secret realm is taken away? This would most certainly trigger a massive war between the two countries.”
“So what does the Light God Country need to do?”
“They need to find light-type creatures from the Bright Secret Realm that as yet do not exist in their own country. Then cultivate them, build them into an industry chain, and completely localize them, making them fully their own.” “Brilliant!” Vincent’s eyes lit up, immediately getting the idea.
“Don’t be too hasty in praising it. This matter is not an easy one to carry out.
First off, our Kyoto City will surely impose regulations on the Bright Secret Realm and strictly prohibit export trade, requiring any Beast Tamer who wants to contract with light-type creatures to sign a very stringent agreement.”
“So that means…”
“In this regard, if the Light God Country wants to introduce them, they must negotiate with our country. Can you imagine what that entails? So as to get what they want, the Light God Country would have to accept a prohibitive cost. ”
“What does it have to do with them wanting to please me?”
“Of course, there’s a relation. In your hands, you have the positioning beacon, which means that the Light God Country, far away as they are, can teleport themselves into the Bright Secret Realm via the Secret Realm Teleportation Machine and thus no longer be subject to Kyoto City’s restrictions. Naturally, they will want to please you.” see!
Aiden Winter switched topics,
“And don’t be too fond of Archbishop Losen and his group simply because they came at a critical time. In reality, it’s because their Angel failed and couldn’t successfully exterminate the Demon Beasts in the Devil’s Domain, this means not only did the Light God Country fail in its mission, but they also lost an Angel artifact.”
“So to lessen their own blame, they must make amends, they must show their worth, there’s no need to think of them as being too noble.”
“But even if it’s like that, I suppose the contract they made with the City Lord has probably been rendered void now. Although I don’t know what the City Lord promised them, I think the City Lord doesn’t need to fulfil the contract now.”
Vincent thought that indeed, the older generation is much more cunning.
Aiden Winter dispelled more than half of the initial goodwill Vincent had towards the Light God Country in just a few sentences.
Nevertheless, the fact that Archbishop Losen and their group made it just in time did provide significant help to Vincent. He wouldn’t look down on them because of Aiden Winter’s words.
Chatting and rushing on their journey, Vincent finally returned to the hotel.
Aiden Winter left.
He still had things to handle and had to report the events of this journey into the Devil’s Domain to the City Lord.
The only reason there was one Grandmaster, Aiden Winter, in the Shadow Devil’s Domain this time, aside from the Su Ruler’s involvement meaning Grandmasters couldn’t intervene, was also because the Grandmasters all carried the vital responsibility of safeguarding the fleeing crowds.
Should the Su Ruler fail in the Devil’s Domain, leading to uproar in there and Demon Beasts appearing in the outside world, then it would be time for the Grandmasters to step in.
Aiden Winter was let to go into the Devil’s Domain as an exception because he was the one liaising with the Su Ruler.
This is also why only Aiden Winter knew the situation in the Devil’s Domain as of now, he needed to go and lift the current alert.
As for the Su Ruler…
He naturally hurried back to his post and of course, wouldn’t waste his time on meaningless report and flattery.
Once Vincent returned to his room, the first thing he saw was Dragon looking frantic.
Only when he saw Vincent return safe and sound, did Dragon let the stone in his heart sink, collapsing onto the couch, muttering prayers for the old master’s blessing.
The reason Vincent didn’t bring Dragon to the Shadow Devil’s Domain was first, because Dragon was too weak, going there would mean Aiden Winter would be distracted in protecting him, reducing safety,
second, it was needless, Dragon wouldn’t serve any purpose, Aiden Winter also had a flying mount,
and third, Vincent was afraid that if they failed this time, Dragon would also be implicated in it.
After muttering about Vincent’s father, Dragon immediately came over to ensure Vincent was intact.
“You didn’t get hurt, did you, Vincent?”
“Don’t worry, I didn’t come out gravely injured like my old man did.”
“That’s good! That’s good!”
Vincent then recounted his experience in the Devil’s Domain to Dragon.
Dragon Town was also startled as he listened, especially during the moments of deadlock, which were always teetering on the edge, causing him to yell out in fear or surprise.
In the end, when Vincent Wolf mentioned the death of Earl Lane, Dragon Town was also very pleased as this person had a connection to the death of the previous master.
But when it came to the Evil Beast Master, Dragon Town was confused.
“Vincent, is the Evil Beast Master really the president of the Kyoto City Beast Master Association?”
“To be honest, I can’t be sure, but I think there is a fifty percent chance.” That’s why Vincent Wolf brought him up, using the [Discernment] he had wielded a few days ago, allowed him to see the vice president of the Kyoto City Beast Master Association carrying the word ‘enemy’ above his head.
He had figured out that all the other enemies were subordinates of Earl Lane, who was connected to the Evil Beast Master who was responsible for his father’s death.
But Vincent Wolf had no idea why the vice president was an enemy. That’s why he wanted to bluff Earl Lane with this.
However, Vincent Wolf didn’t have the Buddhist Mind Reading power, so he couldn’t judge the truth or falsehood of Earl Lane’s words, leaving the decision to the Dragon of Miracles and Fantasies tomorrow.
“The eight years were not in vain, the old master can finally rest in peace soon!”
After muttering for a while, Dragon Town suddenly remembered something and asked, “By the way, Vincent, is that Shadow Puppet dead?” “Huh? What Shadow Puppet?” Vincent responded, looking puzzled.
“The Shadow Puppet! The one that injured the old master in the Shadow Demon Domain, that Shadow Puppet!” Dragon Town’s voice suddenly became agitated.
Vincent slapped his forehead.
There’s been so much going on recently that he almost forgot about that thing!
This was the creature that injured his father, and it had a share in the responsibility for his father’s failure to escape.
It must be exterminated!
And now that the former Devil’s Domain had become a Secret Realm, the strength of the Shadow Puppet had diminished significantly. With his current strength, along with Dragon Town’s, they should be able to eliminate it.
However, just to be safe, Vincent hoped to first upgrade Barry and Flora Gates to high-level commanders before dealing with the Shadow Puppet.
“I haven’t done the simulation today yet, I’d better upgrade Barry first, and let Flora Gates get used to her current strength. Upgrading too fast also has its drawbacks, it can make the foundation unstable,” Vincent thought to himself.
However, before the simulation, there was something else to do.
He took out his phone and dialed a number.
The phone was answered in just one second.
As the phone was picked up, the operator on the other side courteously said to Vincent: “Hello, Awakener No. 001, this is No. 039 Exclusive Operator. How can I assist you today?”
Awakener No.001 meant that Vincent was now the first Awakener in the Secret Realm Squad.
And No.039 was the operator’s number. This meant that she was exclusively assigned to Vincent. available 24/7, waiting for his call.
“Nothing much, just that I need to report the completion of a task.” Vincent replied.
“Task completion… is it your Four-star Devil’s Domain Awakening Task? Have you encountered any difficulties? We will do our utmost to assist you. This includes not only personnel assistance, but also the supply of high-grade equipment, appropriate levels of financial support, and special resources support among others.”
This list made Vincent a bit stunned.
So many things?
Why hadn’t he heard about these last time?
If he had, Vincent would have applied for all of them a long time ago.
“Did you mention these last time? I don’t remember.” he asked.
The exclusive receptionist started to grumble in her heart.
Last time, the moment Vincent had come on the line he demanded Master Zhu Yi. And then he hung up, without giving her a chance to speak about these things.
This time, she hurriedly recited all of them just to be sure..
