The old priest looked at Joisse, who was screaming.
"Sir Joisse, do you not trust my perception, or are you deceiving yourself?”
"Priest Leicester, what I said is true.”
Joyce grabbed a familiar fat sheep and said,""It's Grand Knight Conrad, the captain of the Mamma Knights under the Marquis. If you don't believe me, you can call it, and it will definitely agree.”
The old priest took a deep breath and trusted this guy one last time.
He looked at the fat sheep in front of him and suddenly felt that he was very stupid. However, he still composed himself and asked,"Are you Grand Knight Conrad? If so, nod your head twice."
"Meh!"
Conrad Sheep let out a strange cry and turned to leave.
" It's obvious," the old priest said." It's not Grand Knight Conrad!”
Joyce was stunned." How is that possible? It's Conrad. Could it be that these sheep look too similar and I mistook them for Conrad?”
Conrad Sheep, who was hiding among the sheep, wanted to find a hole to hide in.
He definitely couldn't nod!
If he admitted that he was Conrad and word got out, how would he be able to live in Sapphire City? How could he lead the knights of the Mamma Knights? He also wanted his face, alright?
"My dear Joisse, I heard that you've returned and brought back a tier 9 Subterranean Drake!”
A chubby middle-aged man walked into the courtyard.
"Lord Marquis!" Joisse hurriedly bowed.”
" No need for formalities," the Bauhinia Marquis said with a smile." Eh? Lester Light Priest, why are you here?"”
The old priest glanced at Joisse.
Then, he hurriedly bade farewell and left.
After the old priest left, the marquis frowned and said,""Joyce, what's going on? Aren't you going to the nature elves 'territory? Why are you back so soon? Where was Head Commander Conrad? Did he complete the mission I gave him?”
"Meh!"
Conrad Sheep walked over.
"I knew you were Conrad!”
Conrad rolled his eyes.
The marquis was stunned. He pointed at the fat sheep in front of him and said,"" It's my head commander?"
Joyce nodded with a bitter smile.
He told the marquis everything that had happened in the nature elves 'territory. After saying that, he looked at the marquis' expression and continued,"I originally thought that the Divine Spell of the Temple of Light could dispel the Druid Transformation Spell of the Elf King, but the result disappointed me. The Light Priest of Lester didn't even believe that these sheep were knights and mages of our Chamber of Commerce.”
The marquis's face darkened.
He carefully examined a sheep and shook his head."Priest Lester is right. They don't have any magic fluctuations.”
" But it's the truth," Joisse said with a bitter smile." I saw it with my own eyes! If the marquis doesn't believe me, you can ask Miss Nicola. She was there too.”
" My dear butler Joisse," the marquis said." You have served me for decades. Of course I trust you."”
"Lord Marquis!"
Joyce was very touched.
" Did the Elf King say how to remove the shapeshifting spell on them?" the marquis asked.”
" This young Elven King has changed his attitude," Joisse said." He has become very strong and obsessed with gold coins. He wants us to pay two million gold coins as compensation before he is willing to remove Conrad and the others from their sheep-form state.”
Bauhinia Marquis's face darkened.
"2,000,000 gold coins, he really has the nerve to ask!”
"There are indeed too many!"
" Lord Marquis," Joisse said," I brought back a 9th-rank Subterranean Drake from the elven territory this time. It's priced at one million gold coins. There are also 30,000 sheep worth 400,000 gold coins in the Dark Forest's underground world. "In other words, we have to pay a total of 3.4 million gold coins to the nature elves.”
Hearing this huge number.
The marquis 'fat face twitched.
3.4 million gold coins. Did he really think that the gold coins in his hands were the sand at the bottom of Gem Lake?
At this moment, the marquis suddenly reacted.
"You mean to say that you've already brought the Subterranean Drake back, but you haven't handed over half a gold coin to the nature elves?”
"Yes."
Joyce knew what the Bauhinia Marquis was thinking.
"Lord Marquis, the nature elves are no longer the same as before. In their territory, there were tens of thousands of Great Elves with professions. It was an elf army with terrifying combat power! According to my speculation, the gnome kingdom in the Dark Night Forest should have been destroyed by the Elf King.”
The Bauhinia Marquis looked at him from the corner of his eyes.
He suspected that the old butler who had served him for decades was joking with him.
Last month, a merchant group from their Chamber of Commerce had gone to the territory of the nature elves. At that time, there were less than a thousand nature elves there, but now there were tens of thousands of them? Did he appear out of nowhere?
Joyce smiled bitterly.
If it were him, he wouldn't believe it if he didn't see it with his own eyes.
But this was the truth.
There was a loud bang.
The ten-meter-long Subterranean Drake leaped over the wall and crashed heavily into the yard.
On the back of the Subterranean Drake sat a beautiful human girl. It was Miss Nicola.
"Father, what Teacher said is true!”
"Little Red has already signed a magical pet contract with me," Nicola said."She told me that she saw the Elf King lead the Elf Army and destroy the Gnome Kingdom with 100,000 gnomes yesterday.”
" It's actually true?!"
The marquis sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Roar ~"
The Subterranean Drake suddenly opened its mouth wide and swallowed a fat sheep beside it.
"You glutton! I told you that's not a sheep!" Joyce roared.”
Marquis Bauhinia was speechless.
