Retired God King becomes Witch Idol Manager

Curtis let out a long sigh, feeling a mixture of relief and pity. Perhaps this was the punishment that a degenerate traitor was destined to receive.

If it weren't for Victoria, Huangyan Province might not have fallen to Xi Weng so quickly. Countless innocent civilians, soldiers, and papal envoys perished in the battle, and Li Qingqiu and she almost perished as well...

776. The Women Behind the King

Madam Miao was not in a hurry. She slowly repeated the price. She already knew who the Holy Maiden belonged to, but she just wanted to give someone a little more help.

Even His Highness the Holy Son abandoned Victoria, and the little angel was in tears, filled with fear and helplessness.

This made the Black Dragon King even more excited!

"It's not much money, I'll pay double!"

Brington was the pervert who kept waiting for the final price and then called it a day. He stared at the trembling little angel, his teeth grinding together, and drool was practically dripping from his mouth.

"Didn't you say you didn't have what I wanted today!?"

The proprietress rolled her eyes at the little lecher, her expression clearly saying "just kidding." She wouldn't admit that Victoria was deliberately bought and sold at a high price to Brington.

"Deal! Congratulations, young guest, the Holy Maiden is yours."

Lady Miao smiled sweetly, clapped her hands, and told her servants to prepare the next treasure, making sure to exaggerate its allure.

"The next item is extraordinary; I've heard it's the elemental essence that my king snatched from the royal lion's mouth..."

"I haven't tasted the Seven Luminaries Saintess yet."

Brington grinned wickedly, only to be met with another scornful look from Lula. Someone was in for a rough night.

The cage was carried away by the giant, and according to custom, the catgirls would dress it up carefully, package it to look delicious, and then send it to their little master to enjoy.

Seeing Victoria being photographed by the strange little boy next to Nolan, Selene felt a glimmer of hope. She didn't know that Victoria was practically dead. The slaves that Blington bought usually didn't live more than one night, but the Saint should be able to hold on for a few more days.

Before they knew it, the auction was halfway through. The proprietress of Sakura Street had made quite a haul, but most of the visitors were quite disappointed with the merchandise, as there were no amazing treasures to be found.

Ingvar's interest in the throne was clearly greater than in the treasures; her attention remained focused on her old rival. At this moment, she finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"My dear brother, these kids around you look familiar. Could they be the allied pigs who lost Huangyan Province and Blue Shield Province one after another? If you're planning to bring a bunch of stray dogs into the Ark, you'd better be careful. Hehe, don't lose your lives!"

Knowing full well the answer, the Molten Dragon Rider Commander launched a blatant attack, choosing the weak ally of the Iron Dragon Riders as his target.

Caliban remained calm and prepared, and sneered, "Instead of reminding others, you should worry more about yourself. I might have to think twice about the alliance between the Ice Blade Dragon Knight and the Snow Maiden. Julia also has the Abyss as her backing, but what right do you have to be so arrogant?"

Ingvar rose violently, his straight back piercing through the roof beams, the flame tattoo on his arm radiating intense heat.

Selene, suppressing her anger, stood up slowly, her eyes gleaming with iridescent light. Her immense aura forced the other lords to retreat, her tiny figure silently confronting the dragon rider commander.

"snort......."

Ingvar glanced at the smiling silver-haired girl, but his explosive temper did not flare up.

The Revolutionary Army is insignificant compared to the Dragon Rider Legion, but Her Highness the Holy Son possesses several top-tier combatants from the dimensional battlefield. At most, she could only handle one Berserker Princess here, which would be very unwise.

"What qualifications do I have? You'll find out soon enough. Miss Nolan is a smart woman; she should know who has a better chance of winning."

A hint of smugness flashed across the giantess's face, feeling confident of victory. However, she was concerned about the possibility of a witch suddenly appearing, so she paid close attention to the Chaos Knight's attitude.

Caliban's intelligence network was also strong; he knew that Ingvar and Pompey had reached some kind of agreement to eliminate the most competitive Iron Dragoons first. Undeterred, he went straight for Ingvar's sore spot.

"At least the revolutionary army soldiers helped the Water Spirit Royal Court successfully repel the dragon tide, and I admire their courage. As for your confrontation with Marshal Roland... as far as I know, you have never won a single battle."

Ingvar's face turned ashen, yet she couldn't refute it. The strength of the Molten Dragon Riders stemmed from her power and unit dominance, while other areas were unremarkable.

In the war between the various forces of different realms, there are many renowned commanders, among whom Roland and Sion have the most illustrious achievements. Putting aside their personal strength, the resumes of any legion commander are far inferior to those of the two.

The guests whispered among themselves, their gazes toward the witch filled with even greater awe. The latest information from the Iron Dragon Knight Commander had been confirmed by all parties.

The dragon tides have never failed in their invasion of the realms, but they were repelled by the high elves just now. This great counterattack has been widely publicized by the dragon-slaying warrior legion that came to support them, with the intention of severing the momentum of the Splendid Valley and the Sea Throne.

While both were attempts at winning over the enemy, Caliban's approach was much smarter. He not only saved face for his ally but also used the name of the fallen Holy Marshal to gain favor with the second daughter of the Joestar family.

Unfortunately, this family, filled with madmen, has always been at odds.

"That's something to celebrate!"

Madam Miao quickly eased the awkward atmosphere, her eyes darting around as she glanced a few more times at the aloof beauty behind Nolan. With a charming smile, she couldn't help but tease, "This must be the Moonstone Dragon Mother, right? I wonder what you intend to do with her? If you're willing to entrust Sakura Street to preside over the bidding, I certainly won't disappoint you regarding the price!"

Everyone perked up their ears, their expressions turned serious, and their burning gazes frequently fell upon Lula's alluring body. Becoming a dragon knight was the glory they all dreamed of.

Even Caliban and Ingvar temporarily set aside their hostility and became very interested in the Moonstone Dragon Mother, who was at an extraordinary level. It was only thanks to the landlady's reminder that they noticed something very important.

Only a monster of the Dragon King level deserves to be called a true king!

If one could possess a jeweled dragon king as a mount, just like one's father, it would not only greatly enhance one's strength but also serve as a symbol of status, ensuring unquestionable right to the throne.

Nolan turned his head and saw the drooling black-haired boy, and laughed even more happily. This little pervert with a crazy look on his face really looked like the Three-Phase.

Lula felt a chill run down her spine, her eyes flashing with malice, as if she wanted to bite the cat to death. The landlady felt a cold sweat run down her back and was too scared to say a word.

The next item was brought up by the servants, but no one cared anymore. Nolan's silence made the captives even more nervous. At this moment, a catwoman came to the girl's side, placed a strand of red hair on the table, and pointed in the direction of the Crimson Lotus King.

Heloise twitched the corners of her mouth, revealing a wicked smile. A hidden message was tucked into her hair, a secret she wanted to convey to Nolan, a message that Lockrean and the others couldn't hear.

[My little king, Lady Wonder is also a member of the Dream Salon. She should know many of Pompey's secrets. This is good news for Lockrean. We don't need to do anything; we just need to wait.]

At this moment, the beautiful empress is plotting with Nolan in her capacity as queen; she will never let her child's "father" suffer.

In other words, is Lady Myo actually one of Caliban's people?

Red Hair turned to ashes in Nolan's palm, and he understood something. If it were her, she would also choose Caliban to invest in the future among the five Black Princes, rather than the cunning and vicious Pompeii.

777. Ark Pass

Like Matilda and Olivia, Caliban and Lockrean also have a group of remarkable women behind them and maintain close ties with them.

Last time, Serani leaked Caliban's World Tree Project, taking a huge risk for Nolan. She is also the queen of the Iron Dragon Knights.

As two highly promising kings of the Dream Salon, their alliance may have been orchestrated by Queen Louisa. If Caliban ascends the Obsidian Throne, Lokryn could also use this opportunity to reshape the Holy Alliance.

This is a perfect, mutually beneficial deal...

That's perfect, Nolan needs to contact Bailu to confirm the true situation inside the Dark Empire.

"It's getting late. Our regular customers know that Sakura Street never disappoints its VIPs. The last item, and also the most precious one, will be presented shortly!"

With just one sentence, Lady Miao drew back the many gazes that had been directed at the Dragon Mother.

The main event was about to begin, and everyone straightened their posture and stared intently at the beautiful proprietress, but she didn't bring any food for a long time, which made people suspicious.

Lady Miao smiled broadly, deliberately pausing for a moment to satisfy everyone's curiosity before whispering, "This treasure is invisible and intangible, yet its value surpasses that of the previous items by a thousand times. It is... the spatial coordinates of the Ark dimension!"

The first part of the statement might sound exaggerated to others. If the last item is worth a thousand Holy War Maidens, how valuable would that be?

But when the proprietress finished speaking, there was a deathly silence inside and outside the courtyard, followed by a loud shout.

"Ark coordinates!?"

"real or fake......"

"The Obsidian Empire is actually willing to share with outsiders?"

Having the spatial coordinates of the Ark is equivalent to having a pass to the higher plane.

The foreign envoys whispered among themselves. Compared to this "treasure," the previous items were indeed insignificant, and their prices must have been terrifying. Without the backing of a powerful force, they could never have afforded them. However, there was no time to report now.

Lady Miao had anticipated the flustered and surprised looks of the guests. She waved her long sleeves and added softly, "Gentlemen, please don't be anxious or worried. There is no starting price for the last item, so everyone can participate."

No price?

Everyone was stunned, including Caliban and Ingvar. The two black princes were filled with doubt and shock at Pompey's unusual behavior.

How dare the Cataclysmic Dragon Rider Commander sell the Ark's spatial coordinates?!

"Because this precious gift is given away for free, it doesn't cost any money."

Lady Miao clapped her hands with a light smile, and then uttered an even more explosive piece of news: Just now, her servant had handed over the coordinates of the Ark to the Adventurers' Guild and announced them to the world at the same time, so that everyone could see them.

The coordinates of the Ark were spreading rapidly to every corner of the world. The lords present were completely frantic, both shocked and furious. They were furious that they had not been able to take advantage of the situation, and shocked that they were caught off guard. Without stopping, they immediately returned to their territories to confirm the authenticity of the information.

If the intelligence is true, then a large number of pioneers will be moving into the Ark in the next few days, which means that the whole world will be a competitor!

The fact that only three forces are currently vying for the square formation is not because others are not qualified to enter, but because only the Star Sanctuary, the Obsidian Empire, and the Savage Beast Territory possess the specific coordinates of the Ark. It should be noted that the Void Outer Realm is unfathomable, and not everyone can roam the void.

Even the high-ranking leaders of the Savage Beast Territory and the Free Federation dared not reveal the location of the Ark, so how could Pompey have the audacity to give the world the secrets of the empire?

That must be the king's order, and also the final hurdle in the test of royal power!

With his intelligence, Caliban quickly grasped the situation, his heart sank, and the pressure increased. In this way, his opponents in the struggle for the throne would no longer be just his brothers and sisters.

Even a slow-witted giant could guess that Pompey didn't have the ability to rebel, and Ingvar's expression was complicated; he instantly lost the will to target his brother.

It's hard to say whether this is good news or bad news. The advantage is that everyone can log into the Ark through spatial coordinates and share the huge pie of the higher plane.

However, the downsides are also obvious. The primordial plane, which even the Savage Beast Territory and the Obsidian Empire could not conquer, harbors hidden dangers. If the Obsidian Emperor were completely confident, he would never have given it up so easily.

Perhaps it was precisely because Harrison was not confident of monopolizing the Ark that he wanted the situation to be as chaotic as possible, so that the Lion King and the Star Messenger would have no opportunity to take advantage of it.

The guests on Cherry Blossom Street scattered in a hurry to confirm the news, while the few people remaining in the park were also lost in thought with varying moods.

Bai Lu dared not act on her own, and Nolan immediately ruled out Pompey, frowning as he asked, "What does Harrison want to do?"

Brington shook his head, his little face equally puzzled; he had only just learned about it himself.

"Harrison is an elusive man, and it's hard to guess his true thoughts. He came to power to deal with potential enemies. As for who they are, you might as well guess."

"The Hunter God Clan".

Nolan reacted quickly.

“That’s right. Tess hunted Harrison for a long time when she was still a hunter. Now that Roland is dead, she seems to have been forced to return. Harrison is probably quite happy about it. His favorite thing is to ‘seek death’.”

Nolan noticed that the Father's loyal hounds were also hunting down this outcast; sharing a common hatred was never a bad thing.

What exactly forced Obsidian Emperor to reveal the coordinates of the Ark? What put him in a predicament and required him to rely on external forces to break the balance?

Nolan glanced at Caliban and Ingvar, and through the Black Prince's mutual restraint, he seemed to understand something. He muttered to himself, "Could it be that the Sanctuary of the Stars and the Unruly Beasts have joined forces to kick him out?"

Brington's gaze faltered for a moment, then he nodded in agreement, saying, "That's very possible. The Ark is still in the midst of a struggle for territory, and its domain is unprecedentedly vast. Whoever can unveil its mysteries first will gain the upper hand in the new era. Sometimes, we have no choice but to cooperate when facing powerful native aliens. If Antonio and the Twelve Star Envoys join forces, we're likely to suffer a great loss."

"An outcast?"
