Li Ellie returns to the Emerald Castle.

"Okay, let's wait and see Albert's actions." She said.

Arthur stopped Conrad who came forward and took Li Aili's shawl.

"Looking at the time, I should go notify the kitchen to prepare dinner." Conard said.

The Duke and Duchess did not stay at Clark to dine.

There were only a handful of creatures in Clark who could breathe, and it seemed quite awkward to have a large table of undead people who didn't need to eat accompany them to eat.

"I really want strawberry cake today, please Conrad."

Conard smiled slightly, "The berries sent from the plantation this morning are very good. I will ask the cook to bake a sweet strawberry cake for you."

"Before your strawberry cake is baked, perhaps you should see Lady Joanna. She seems to have some very troublesome business over there."

Therefore, Li Aili, who was about to go upstairs to change clothes, could only go to the study to meet Joanna first.

Joanna tore up a piece of 'Devil's Express Flyer' and went directly to Li Aili's study, "Your Highness!"

"what happened?"

Li Aili was very curious. She had been away for a long time. What earth-shattering event could happen in Emerald City to make Joanna so panicked.

"The boss of the Assassin's Guild, the boss behind the Hales Auction, and a few other prominent figures in the Badlands... they are all here."

Li Aili: "..."

Li Aili has heard about these people. If translated, it is probably 'a group of bad guys is visiting'.

Li Aili couldn't help but straighten her back and sit up straight, like a meerkat on alert.

"What are they doing here?"

Joanna became even more uneasy when she heard this question, "I didn't say anything. They said that unless they see the Lord of the Emerald City,..."

The other party has a good background, and is surrounded by extraordinary professionals with powerful auras.

Li Aili and the Duke were not here, and Joanna did not dare to be too tough.

"Let them come to the castle. I want to see what the 'Dark Force Alliance' is doing in the Emerald City."

Joanna felt reassured when she saw Li Aili's attitude.

Li Aili: "And Leon Goler, let him bring all his 'proud works'."

Joanna: "..."

Ten minutes later, in the reception hall of the Emerald Castle, Li Aili's ring was filled with a destructive alchemical potion.

On the left stood Leongoler with bottles and cans hanging on his body, and on the right stood the Duke with an expressionless face.

The Duke turned his head and saw the stupid elf waving to him in a friendly manner.

'Why is he here? ', the Duke asked his wife with his eyes.

Li Aili responded with a look of tacit understanding between husband and wife, "An Xin, there are many of us, and we can kill these bad guys with an explosion~!" '

The 'silly' elf beamed: Oh! Has anyone come to test the medicine again?
Duke: "..."

Soon, more than twenty people wearing black cloaks were led into the 'reception hall' by the smiling demon butler.

The entire faces of these people were hidden in the shadows cast by their hoods, and it was impossible to tell their race at first glance.

A man walked out of the 'black cloak'. He stepped forward steadily and performed the etiquette of a human noble on Li Aili who was sitting on the lord's seat.

"Good day, the great Lord of the Emerald City, the Duchess of the Emerald Valley, Her Royal Highness the Princess who lost her bloodline."

Li Aili: "..." It turns out that I have so many titles now.

This was the first time for Li Aili to receive such an 'interview'. She stroked the jade inlaid on the lord's throne with her fingers and said, "Good day, guests."

"The person in front of you is the boss from the Helles underground auction. My surname is Haiman, and my name is Hailes, Hailes Haiman."

"Allow me to introduce to you, this is the president of the Assassin's Guild, Shadow Master Solomon."

Leongole leaned close to Li Aili and whispered, "Ah, this person is wanted by many people. It is said that throwing him to the Adventurer's Guild can be exchanged for at least 1 million gold coins..."

Li Aili swore that the sound of swallowing was definitely not from her, but from the elf next to her! "This is the creator of the Thieves Guild, 'Invisible Hand' Thomson."

Leon Goler: "This is also very valuable! 9800 million gold coins! I heard that he stole one of the seven secret treasures. 9800 million is only for this person, and the seven secret treasures are captured separately."

Where are these more than 20 visitors? They are simply a 'financial gift package'.

Li Aili felt that if Leongole continued to introduce simultaneously, she would ask the guard at the door to lock the door.

"...Leongole."

Leon Goler: "?"

"Please, shut up. I don't want the Emerald Valley to have a reputation of being a gangster." There seems to be something wrong, but now is not the time to explain.

Finally, the owner of Hayles Auction finished introducing his fellow travelers.

After the two sides exchanged some polite words, Hayles and his companion looked at each other...

To be honest, Li Aili was extremely excited at this moment.

How she hoped that these twenty-odd evil forces would suddenly rise up and attack her, a weak human lord.

In this way, she can count the 'bounty' openly.

But reality always runs counter to ideals.

Thump, thump, thump, several dull sounds.

Treasure boxes were placed on the ground in the reception hall.

"It's a small gift, I hope you will accept it."

The lid of a box was opened, and it was filled with red dragon gems (produced from Ruby Dragon), each one at least as big as a fist.

These red dragon gems are of excellent quality, and each one can become the 'main stone' on the Dharma Saint's staff. They are priceless but not marketable.

The last time it was an auction jointly organized by three major underground auctions, a green dragon gem was sold. It was only half the size of an adult's fist, but the price was shouted at 560 million gold coins.

And here... there is a box full of at least 400 rubies.

As the boxes were opened one by one, there were nearly a hundred treasure boxes. Each box of treasures was priceless. The treasures were connected together, and even added a 'pearl' to the dome of the reception hall.

Li Aili: "..."

Li Aili's expression changed.

She spoke cautiously: "So, what do you want to do when you come to Emerald City?"

The boss behind Helles Auction bowed deeply, "Your Highness, could you please introduce us to the Great Pumpkin Lord who protects this place?"

At this time, Li Aili: Meow meow meow? ? ?

Leongole: (⊙_⊙)?
Duke: "..."

Li Aili almost blurted out: What are you talking about, a melon and a lord?

For a moment, she almost thought that this group of bigwigs from the 'lawless land' had collectively lost their way and were looking for the wrong place.

Hales lowered his voice, as if he was whispering about a god behind his back, "You know, the one who can turn a giant dragon into a meat pie with one blow."

"Being attacked by thousands of saints, but still standing in the end."

"The one who protected the peace of the Emerald Valley with his body of flesh and blood, no, with the body of a pumpkin - the Great Pumpkin Lord!"

Li Aili: “…………”

Leon Goler: "………………"

Arthur: "."

The silence in the reception hall was 'deafening'.

Haiman looked at the silent Emerald City Lord with some anxiety, then gritted his teeth and said, "We can still increase the price!"

Li Aili: "!!!" (End of this chapter)
