"In order to appreciate my hard work, you have to pay me if you want to use this teleportation formation." Ace revealed his real intention.
Did he feel sorry for them?
No!
There was not the slightest bit of guilt in his heart when he took advantage of the situation because he did not have a good relationship with them.
He was also not afraid of them because they were only at the Master rank.
[Three divine beings dislike your plan.]
[All evil beings like your plan.]
"Don't worry. I'm not a greedy person. Just give me half of your harvest and I will help you get out of this small world safely." Ace behaved as if he was not a greedy person.
Scarlett turned her head to the other side, trying her best not to laugh.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom 'How can you say you are not a greedy person when you want half of their harvest? If that's not greedy then what is it? You don't see yourself as a generous person, right? Hehe.'
Of course, she supported his actions because no matter what happened, she would always have his back.
Jordan and the others were unhappy.
Sure, he was the one who opened the stone door but asking them to give him half of their harvest was too much.
It was a robbery!
In order to get the treasure, they lost several subordinates, and here, he readily said he wanted half of their harvest.
Of course, none of them agreed with his condition!
"We used a lot of energy to break the barrier. We also lost a few people in order to get the treasure. How can you ask us to give you half of our harvest?" Ryan almost could not hold back his anger.
"Why don't you just say you want to rob us?" Jimmy added.
"Well, I won't force you guys to accept it. I will just leave this place if you guys disagree with my condition because there is no point for me to stay in this place anymore." Ace behaved calmly because everything was still under his control.
Jimmy and the others were shocked after hearing his words.
Previously, they thought he would force them to give him half of their harvest or use violence, but they were wrong.
"But I won't deactivate this formation because you guys disagree with my condition." Ace threatened them indirectly.
Ryan and the others clenched their fists.
Their faces darkened because they were unhappy with Ace's actions.
Previously, he said only awakeners at the Grandmaster rank or above could destroy the barrier, so they understood the meaning of his actions.
He wanted to trap them in that place forever!
Sure, the barrier could be broken, but they had to break through to the Grandmaster rank first to destroy it.
The energy of heaven and earth in that place was not as rich as on the outside, so breaking through to the next level was much harder.
They also did not have enough beast cores to help them break through to the next level, as they only obtained around twenty beast cores.
They were already at Master rank, so the 1-star and 2-star beast cores they obtained a few minutes ago were useless as it were not enough.
"I just want to remind you to be careful because there is a high chance that you will be attacked by magical beasts again." Ace uttered, "Previously, we were attacked by magical beasts twice."
He then continued, "The first wave was 1-star magical beasts and the second wave was 2-star magical beasts. Maybe, the next wave is 3-star magical beasts. Who knows about this."
Jordan and the others hated him even more after hearing his words. Even though they hated to admit it, but there was a possibility that his words would come true.
If the next wave was 3-star magical beasts, then there was only one outcome for them.
Death!
The strongest among them was only at Master rank, so it would be impossible for them to kill a group of 3-star magical beasts.
Knowing they were at a disadvantage, Lily said, "Asking us to give you half of our harvest is too much. How about I give you a quarter of my treasure?"
"Quarter is too little. I want half of your harvest, nothing less than that." Ace refused instantly because it was too little.
"Haha." Lily was unhappy with his answer. "I'm from Misty Palace. Are you sure you want half of our treasure? I suggest you to think about this carefully because you can regret your actions later."
Misty Palace was one of the strongest organizations in the Luvrela region, so she found it funny.
Was Ace afraid of her threat?
No!
He did not care, even if she was from Misty Palace or another organization, because he only cared about the treasure.
If he was afraid of them, there was no way he would carry out his sinister plan. And he was also using a fake identity, so none of them knew who he was.
"Threatening me? Because you don't accept my kindness, then I will change the price. If you want to leave this place, you have to give me seventy percent of your treasure. Otherwise, you can live in this place forever." Ace did this so the others would not threaten him again.
Of course, he still did not know that Evelyn was from Misty Palace.
No!
Even if he knew Evelyn was from Misty Palace, he would not care about it because Lily and Evelyn were two different people.
Unless Evelyn asked him personally, he would treat Lily like Jimmy and the others.
"You!" Lily and the other Misty Palace disciples clenched their fists.
They disliked it.
They hated it because Ace did not put Misty Palace in his eyes, as if their organization was weak and unknown.
When Scarlett saw them discussing in a low voice, she uttered, "It seems like they are planning something."
"It's fine because no matter what their plans are, everything will always be under our control." After saying that, Ace looked at his five clones and gave them a signal to always be ready in all conditions.
"Alright. I will give you seventy percent of my harvest." Lily walked towards the barrier with the disciples from the Misty Palace.
They could walk through the barrier because Ace told his system not to stop them. But they were stopped by Ace's clones when they wanted to walk to the center of the stone platform.
For this reason, they were standing on the edge of the stone platform. "Here."
She retrieved some potions, weapons, armors and money from her space ring but she only took out a quarter of her harvest.
She did this because Ace did not know how many potions, weapons, armors and money they got in the floating stone.
However, she underestimated Ace too much. "Miss, I will give you one more chance to bring out seventy percent of your harvest."
"This is seventy percent of my harvest." Lily still tried to fool Ace.
"Because you are still lying to me, then get down from the stone platform." After saying that, Ace looked at his five clones.
Bang!
All of his clones attacked Lily and the other disciples from the Misty Palace, causing them to be thrown ten meters from where they were.
Lily and the others could not defend themselves or avoid it because his clones suddenly attacked them.
"I suggest you guys not to lie to me or else you will regret your actions later." Ace said calmly.
"How can we tell if they're lying to us or not?" Scarlett inquired.
They only stood on the stone platform since the beginning, so they did not know what they got from the floating stone.
Actually, Ace was thinking of a way to solve this problem. Previously, he knew that Lily lied to him from her expressions.
He would not know the truth if they wore poker faces.
'What should I do now?'
He was not God and had no skills that could help him in this matter, so he still did not know what to do.
At this moment, something unexpected happened.
Greed, one of seven deadly sins, gave him one card!
'I got another free card?'
After seeing the card given by one of seven deadly sins, an unexpected happiness consumed him.
[Greed says, I like your actions, so use this card to help you carry out your plan.]
