Chapter 285 - Took the Initiative to Plead for Mercy
“Take care, Master!”
“Wait for my good news, Master!”
After sending off his Master respectfully, Ebenezer was so excited that he jumped around like a child. He instantly entered into his assassin state and hid his body under a black fog. He crossed the street and walked towards the Feathered Monsters and Bards. His figure gradually disappeared into the sea of creatures.
On the other side, Vincent had already returned to the vicinity of the Arena of Life and Death. After finding a hidden corner and restoring his appearance, he walked towards the gate of the arena.
Before he entered the gate, he saw Marcus pacing back and forth with an anxious look on his face.
When Marcus saw Vincent, he immediately walked forward and said, “Brother Fire Asura, you’re finally back. Does our previous agreement still stand? When are you going to help me make things difficult for the Feathered Monster Race?”
Vincent glanced at him indifferently and said with a smile, “What’s the rush? Haven’t you thought of a suitable excuse yet? Since you’re here today, let’s go and see the Ultimate Evil Lord and think of a way to frame the Feathered Monster Race!”
Marcus pulled Vincent’s hand and said with a smile, “Good! I’ve been waiting for you to say that. To tell you the truth, I’ve thought of an excuse just now. Just cooperate with me later!”
After seeing that Marcus was so confident, Vincent felt happy and relaxed. He gestured for him to lead the way, and the two of them walked towards the top floor of the arena.
Although he had just met Kaeger and planned to work with him, Vincent did not intend to actually help any one of them sincerely. What he wanted was for these two forces to each suffer losses while also gaining something at the same time. Only this way could the hatred between them continue to deepen. In the end, it would definitely erupt into huge chaos!
At that time, even if the Ultimate Evil Lord was not troubled by it, he would definitely be unable to settle the issue. This was the opportunity that Vincent wanted!
When Vincent and Marcus arrived at the top floor, they saw the Ultimate Evil Lord standing in front of the window and enjoying the duel below.
Vincent was about to turn his head to signal Marcus to go over to the Ultimate Evil Lord but he did not expect Marcus to have already taken the initiative to rush over to the evil lord’s side. He shouted loudly, “Lord, there are creatures who want to harm the capital of Ultimate Evil, you must be alert!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord was startled by Marcus’s loud voice. After hearing what he said, the evil lord quickly frowned and asked, “What do you mean? Is there someone in the capital of Ultimate Evil who wants to create a disaster?”
Marcus nodded. With a serious face, he said, “According to the information I have recently received, Jackson was able to return and sneak into the Arena of Life and Death without making a sound. He almost killed the Fire Asura who was still a participant at that time. There must be a spy from the Ultimate Evil capital who is cooperating with him. That person is Kaeger!”
When the evil lord heard this, he could not help but frown and asked, “Do you have any evidence?”
Marcus shook his head helplessly and said, “I also want to confirm it! But according to the information I received, Jackson entered the capital of Ultimate Evil through the Feathered Monster Race’s aircraft that carried weapons. Even if I wanted to investigate the matter, I could not extend my hand into the Feather Monsters’ business. After all, they relied on the trust of the Ultimate Evil Lord and had almost monopolized the weapons business in the capital of Ultimate Evil. It is simply too easy for them to bring anyone into the capital of Ultimate Evil. Moreover, it is also very easy for them to erase all the evidence after the event!”
As Marcus was unable to provide any concrete evidence, the Ultimate Evil Lord could only make presumptions out of thin air. He naturally did not believe his words 100%.
However, as he was suspicious, he still received a hint of inspiration from what Marcus had said.
The business scale of the Feathered Monster Race had indeed reached a point where the other creatures had no choice but to be afraid of them!
At that moment, the Ultimate Evil Lord had a few thoughts. He knew that Marcus was probably just trying to frame Kaeger, but he could not directly reprimand Marcus. This was because if he wanted to suppress the Feathered Monster Race’s business, he needed a decent excuse. Therefore, it did not matter if what Marcus said was entirely true, the evil lord will still treat it as if it was true.
At the same time, the only way to deal with the Feathered Monster Race was sophisticated knowledge. The Ultimate Evil Lord did not want the Feathered Monster Race to be dominant in the arms business, but at the same time, he did not want to directly kill the Feathered Monster Race with just one slap. Therefore, he had to think of a way to change their crime from a felony to a misdemeanor. This way, rather than directly sentencing the Feathered Monster Race for a heavy crime, he would instead give them a more lenient and imposing punishment. It would also be easier for the Feathered Monster Race to accept the Ultimate Evil Lord’s punishment willingly.
However, it was somewhat difficult for the Ultimate Evil Lord to complete these things alone. He needed a helper. He soon turned his gaze to Vincent.
“The Feathered Monster Race colluded with Jackson to assassinate you and destroy my Ultimate Evil capital. How should they be punished?”
The Ultimate Evil Lord looked at Vincent with a slightly raised gaze. The way he asked made it seem like his question had a hidden meaning.
Vincent instantly understood the Ultimate Evil Lord’s intention. He could not help but secretly laugh in his heart.
He initially wanted to find a suitable excuse to participate in the plan. He did not expect the Ultimate Evil Lord to provide him with the opportunity instead.
Vincent smiled at the Ultimate Evil Lord indicating that he could continue to ask and said frankly, “I think Marcus’s words lack evidence and can’t directly convict Kaeger and the entire Feathered Monster Race.”
The Ultimate Evil Lord quickly understood Vincent’s hint and pretended to be angry. He replied, “Then we won’t pursue this matter?”
Vincent glanced at Marcus and said, “Marcus has already made it very clear just now. Given the status of the Feathered Monster Race in the arms business, even if they had some connection with Jackson back then, all traces must have been erased long ago. Even if they wanted to investigate, there would be no evidence to prove it! But at the same time, Marcus also said something very important, and that was that the Feathered Monster Race’s current business was indeed a little out of line! I think there’s no need for severe punishment. I’ll use the name of him colluding with Jackson and force him to part with a portion of the business for Marcus to take care of. This will be equivalent to planting a pair of eyes on Kaeger. It’ll also be more convenient for you to monitor their business at any time!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord did not expect Vincent to make things so clear. He immediately asked in dissatisfaction, “Are you pleading on behalf of Kaeger?”
Vincent nodded slightly. He smiled and said, “I guess so! After all, his crime could not be established. Plus, at the banquet earlier, Kaeger was also very warm to me. Therefore, no matter what, I hope that the Ultimate Evil Lord will be lenient towards the Feathered Monster Race. You only need to give them a good beating!”
When the Ultimate Evil Lord heard what Vincent said, he finally nodded in satisfaction and replied, “Since you plead on behalf of Kaeger, then I will not pursue the matter any further! I will do as you say and let Marcus take over a portion of the Feathered Monster Race’s arms business!”
Vincent nodded his head gently and replied, “Yes!”
Marcus replied with an excited expression, “Yes!”
