2351 Exploiting the Situation for Peril!
Third Page Eternal Sin said to the G.o.d of Fools without a shred of mercy, “You must have decided to come to us for help because you can’t fix the problem yourselves. Now that we’re here to help you, you should be grateful instead of negotiating! Is this how you treat your allies? I think that once the Freedom Federation regains its territory in the marsh world, you should give us a share of your profits for the next ten years.”
Third Page Eternal Sin’s words caused the ever-composed G.o.d of Fools’ face to sink. A powerful aura exploded forth from the G.o.d of Fools.
Third Page Eternal Sin did not shrink back because of this. Instead, she released her own aura to counter the G.o.d of Fools.
The clas.h.i.+ng of auras caused the atmosphere to become extremely tense.
The G.o.d of Fools, Mirror G.o.d, and other members of the Freedom Federation’s royalty were not the only ones looking at Third Page Eternal Sin with shock. Even Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment, Seventh Page War, Eight Page Apoptosis, and the other members of Tower Canon were also looking at Third Page Eternal Sin in astonishment.
Since when did Third Page Eternal Sin’s power break through? There had been absolutely no hint of such news before this! It seemed that Third Page Eternal Sin’s power had reached the same level as Second Page Revival!
Although Third Page Eternal Sin’s actions were always difficult to understand, she did not keep a high profile, nor was she overly greedy.
Was she acting this way because she was arrogant now that her power had broken through?
Although Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment, Seventh Page War, and Eight Page Apoptosis did not hope for Third Page Eternal Sin to break through, it seemed that Third Page Eternal Sin’s power now rivaled that of the Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools.
The Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools now had to consider Third Page Eternal Sin’s pride.
After Third Page Eternal Sin said that, her gaze swept across the faces of the Freedom Federation’s members of royalty until it landed on the G.o.d of Fools and Mirror G.o.d to impose her formidability.
Third Page Eternal Sin knew that the G.o.d of Fools and Mirror G.o.d would not give way when such large profits were involved even if she had set her spirit fire alight.
There was no way that the Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools would be willing to let the Freedom Federation work for Tower Canon for ten years for nothing in return!
Thus, the Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools’ refusal was only to be expected.
If the G.o.d of Fools and Mirror G.o.d begrudgingly agreed to her request, it would mean that they were faced with an issue of life and death.
The G.o.d of Fools paused for some time before he said, “I can agree to your request, but I have conditions. Tower Canon has to provide both the labor and power to help the Freedom Federation reclaim our territory in the marsh world!”
Third Page Eternal Sin looked austere when she heard what the G.o.d of Fools said.
How could an issue that even the G.o.d of Fools and Mirror G.o.d, who had set their spirit fires alight, could not solve be easy to deal with?
The Fresh City had gathered almost all of its combat power in Fresh City.
Rather than preparing to launch a counterattack, they were retreating and preparing their defenses.
It seemed that the Apostles and Dictators from the marsh world intended to pa.s.s through the Cla.s.s 6 marsh dimensional rift to invade the main world.
Third Page Eternal Sin looked at Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment.
Although Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment was not considered intelligent, he was not stupid either. Hence, he had to have noticed the issue as well.
She had set the scene, so it was time for Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment to receive the baton from her.
Things progressed exactly as Third Page Eternal Sin expected.
Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment had gleaned some useful information from Third Page Eternal Sin and the G.o.d of Fools’ conversation and understood the situation that the Freedom Federation was facing.
At first, Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment felt that Third Page Eternal Sin was too greedy. But now, he felt that Third Page Eternal Sin’s asking price had been too low.
“Giving us ten years of the profits earned from the marsh world will indeed show us the Freedom Federation’s sincerity. But there are some things that need more than sincerity!
“We will send labor to guard the entrance of Fresh City. If any dimensional lifeform pokes its head through, we will deal with it. We can also help to reclaim your territory in the dimensional world. But the Freedom Federation’s royalty has to be present when we do so. If any of you are absent, we will halt our efforts to reclaim your territory in the marsh world.”
Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment was not only greedy but was also very risk-averse.
Thus, he did not want to risk without ensuring the Freedom Federation had his back.
Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment’s words had torn apart the Freedom Federation’s hope of keeping themselves away from the danger and forced them to be involved in addressing the issue.
Seventh Page War and Eight Page Apoptosis rarely worked with the Freedom Federation in the past, but they knew that this was the best opportunity to take advantage of the situation to earn a windfall. Thus, they all sided with Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment.
Seventh Page War and Eight Page Apoptosis were also unwilling to take on any risk.
After all, given the Freedom Federation’s att.i.tude, it was evident that there was an extremely fearsome lifeform in the marsh world.
It would be stupid to clash with that lifeform before discovering its exact capabilities.
The Mirror G.o.d asked Third Page Eternal Sin coldly, “Tower Canon is trying to take advantage of the situation to push us into danger! Are you saying that Tower Canon will never come to ask the Freedom Federation for help in the future? We never asked for so much when we helped you in the past!”
The Mirror G.o.d’s att.i.tude caused Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment’s expression to darken significantly.
What is he doing? I was clearly the one making the request, but he crossed over me to speak to Third Page Eternal Sin. Do I not have the right to speak to you and the Mirror G.o.d on behalf of Tower Canon? He is underestimating me.
Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment prioritized his pride, and this was a great insult to him.
Third Page Eternal Sin had seen through everything and did not want to continue wasting her breath on the Mirror G.o.d. She said to Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment, “You should remember how they helped you. Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment, you shouldn’t be ungrateful.”
Fourth Page Instant Extinguishment rolled his eyes at the Mirror G.o.d.
“I would have almost forgotten about it if the Mirror G.o.d hadn’t brought it up. It’s true that someone did me a small favor, but the person who helped me said that it was a personal favor and had nothing to do with the Freedom Federation.
“When I paid my compensation, I only paid it to that person. Mirror G.o.d, have you forgotten what you said? This is clearly not a personal favor for you, so I do no need to keep your previous favor to me in mind.”
