Alan’s gaze was completely focused on the maidservants as he exuded a confident aura.

  Seeing Alan’s expression, Ron knew that Alan was getting anxious.

  He had a bad feeling about this.

  “I’m still negotiating. Why are you guys out from the forest already?”


  If these people lost their patience, there was no need to say much about what would happen next.

  “Negotiation? Being stopped by a group of maidservants at the foot of the castle is also called negotiation? What a joke.”


  From the moment Ron was stopped by the maidservants at the foot of the castle, Alan could tell that Ron was incompetent.

  If the little noble was close to Ron, Ron would not have been refused entry.

  When Ron heard this, he knew that the rejection for his request to meet with Eddie had been discovered.

  He cursed in his heart.

  These women were messing things up!

  Ron immediately stopped pretending to be a gentleman and even lost the so-called chivalry.

  He shouted at the maidservants, “Hurry up and call out the Master of the castle, while there’s still a chance!”


  Ron was getting extremely anxious in his heart.

  This was related to the lives of everyone in the castle, and these maidservants weren’t helping, or rather, they were making things worse.

  The anxiousness in his heart was almost overwhelming.

  At this moment, Alan was leaning against the wall at the side of the castle, and he looked at Ron with a teasing gaze.

  It seemed like he wanted to see what other tricks the other party could come up with.

  When they were faced with Ron’s roar, Thor, Hermione, and Autumn all felt very puzzled.

  What was this big guy shouting here for?

  Why couldn’t he just sit down and speak in a nicer tone?

  Why did he have to make so much noise here?

  All this was actually tolerable.

  What made Thor angry the most was the fact that he was speaking to her in a commanding tone.

  There was no one else who she would allow to speak to her in such a tone other than Master.

  Ron didn’t know that he was angering a dragon.

  Thor and the other two looked at him and began clenching their fists, wanting to chase this annoying guy away.

  Ron was almost desperate.

  Are these maidservants deaf!?

  He had already said so much, but they were still standing there motionlessly.

  Ron’s body was emitting a silver-white combat aura, and he was ready to just charge in.

  But just as he was about to make his move, Alan, who was beside him, glanced at Ron indifferently.

  He casually extended his right hand.

  “Boom!”


  Surging flames erupted like a volcano.

  The power of a tier 6 fire mage was fully unleashed.

  In an instant, Ron, who was only a tier 5 knight, was engulfed in the flames that were like the breath of a fire dragon.

  There were no fluctuations in the emotions of the surrounding people as they watched on.

  A disheveled figure rushed out from the flames.

  Ron glared at Alan.

  His hair was burnt by the blazing heatwave.

  “Who told you to use your combat aura? Didn’t I tell you to only talk to the other party?”


  Alan looked at Thor and the other two with intoxicated eyes.

  “Moreover, you’re even able to make a move on these three beautiful and cute maidservants. You’re really lacking chivalry.”


  Hearing this, Ron wanted to curse — you’re the one who said to kill them, and now you’re also the one who came out to be the good guy. So now he’s the only one at fault, no matter what he does?

  Facing Alan’s ridicule, Ron’s eyes suddenly turned red. This was the sign of his fury.

  As he thought as such, the anger in Ron’s heart became even more intense.

  You’re the one giving a false account of the truth!

  The anger rushed into his brain, and Ron’s fist lit up with a white combat aura.

  He pounced at Alan at lightning speed.

  John was some distance away from them, and with Ron’s careful calculations, he wouldn’t have enough time to save Alan.

  What Ron was thinking was that even though Alan was now a tier 6 mage, mages were mostly afraid of close combat.

  As long as he got close quickly, he could defeat the other party.

  If he succeeded, he could directly threaten the other party to let Eddie and the others go. It would not be a problem.

  That’s right, Ron saw through Alan’s hypocrisy.

  If he really had the sincerity to let the other party go, there was no need for him to have “stopped” him just now.

  Alan was just trying to humiliate him.

  Ron immediately understood the crux of the matter.

  If he wanted to save Eddie and the others, he had to defeat Alan First.

  Of course, the formula would still have to be handed over to the William Family.

  This was the bottom line.

  Facing Ron whose movements were as fast as lightning, everyone thought that Ron might succeed this time.

  However, Alan merely calmly extended his right hand, and the temperature of the air suddenly rose.

  Small flames shot out from between Alan’s five fingers, and they rapidly transformed into five lifelike fierce pythons.

  A violent aura spread out.

  Alan was a very careful and calculative person.

  When Ron was condensing his combat aura, he was already quietly preparing his magic.

  This was a tier 5 fire-element spell, Fire Python, which allowed him to summon five fire pythons that would encircle him and protect him in the encirclement.

  This caused Ron’s lightning speed to lose most of its advantage.

  The moment Ron’s combat aura fist came into contact with the fire pythons, he felt the dense magic power of the pythons.

  This punch alone did not cause any substantial damage to the fire pythons at all.

  On top of that, the five fire pythons seemed to possess intelligence as they craftily and fiercely fought with him.

  Alan only stood relaxed as his five fingers danced in the air as if he was playing a beautiful harp piece.

  Compared to Ron, who was forced to run helter-skelter by the fire pythons, he looked very cool.

  Gradually, everyone could see that Alan was just teasing Ron, playing with him as if he was a monkey!

  This made Ron, who had always been proud, turn livid with anger.

  He forcibly resisted the attacks of two fire pythons and glared at Alan. He charged up his combat aura crazily and charged at Alan.

  If he could succeed, then Ron would be able to engage in close combat with Alan, which was a great advantage for a knight.

  However, Alan seemed to have known Ron’s attack route in advance.

  He clenched his five fingers slightly, and the five fire pythons instantly gathered into an incomparably huge super fire python.

  It caught up with Ron in an instant.

  It opened its huge mouth that was filled with flames and completely swallowed Ron.

  The next moment, Alan waved his hand to disperse the flames.

  A charred figure half-knelt on the ground, his scarlet eyes glaring at Alan.

  Humiliation and anger were written all over his face.

  “Ah, what a great gaze. All the trash that I defeated had the same look in their eyes, and you are no exception.”


  Alan did not care about Ron’s thoughts at all.

  If it were not for the fact that the Family did not allow the family members to kill each other, he would have killed the other party with a few more spells just now.

  This was the power of the William Family’s number one genius, Alan.

  Alan stood quietly on the spot, not moving a single step.

  Elegant, calm, unhurried, and in control of everything. These words defined a mage.

  This was a mage’s way of fighting!

  Alan was moved by his performance just now.

  He looked at the maidservants who were at the castle gates and said in a narcissistic tone, “Don’t you think that you will have a brighter future if you follow a powerful mage like me?”
