The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

The McCoy family are basically all mages.

Mages are different from nobles. Mages are professionals and all-round talents.

The productivity of this world is almost entirely driven by magic. Mages and mana are both resources.

The nobles, including Xu himself, were the plunderers, controllers and users of these resources.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Xu Lai had no intention of killing the McCoy family.

However, although he did not want to put the McCoy family to death, he still accidentally obtained some information while interrogating those powerful people.

It turns out that Devin McCoy also had his eyes on the Heart of the Castle.

He even made a deal with those nobles, and once they secretly dug out the heart of the castle, he would immediately find a way to help them escape.

Fortunately, Xu Lai had strict surveillance on the palace and did not give these people any chance to take advantage.

Although they were more familiar with the palace, they did not dare to dig openly, and the places they dug were often superficial and difficult to go deep into.

The key is that the demons don't play by the rules. Xu Lai has dug up all the more likely areas in the palace these days.

Even their dozen teams, which were so blatant and high-profile, didn't find anything after so many days.

What can those powerful people dig up by sneaking around in secret?

Devin McCoy refused to open the teleportation array because he couldn't dig anything up.

He knew that if he dared to secretly open the teleportation array, he would definitely offend Xu Laiwang to death.

If we can get the construction drawings of Congress or Cloud City, there is still hope of rebuilding the family's glory.

But if you get nothing and instead offend a very powerful king, that would be a huge loss.

Devon also knew very well that those nobles would not be able to keep the secret for him, so instead of waiting for Xu to come and investigate, it would be better for him to confess on his own initiative.

After asking for forgiveness, Devin quickly confessed his plans for the Heart of the Castle.

"But, Your Majesty, I swear on the honor of the McCoy family that the McCoy family was absolutely not involved in any plan to assassinate you."

"So, you didn't contact thieves to steal the treasures that Kerrigan collected from Lionheart City?"

Xu Lai looked at Dewen with a half-smile, and said softly:
"Master Mage, you don't think that I know nothing because you killed those thieves, right?"

In fact, Xu Lai really didn't know anything. Aiden only found the bodies of some thieves.

Although he didn't know, he could definitely guess it.

Moreover, even if they really were not involved, it would not prevent Xu Lai from forcibly pinning the blame on the McCoy family.

Devin McCoy bowed and admitted without even a rebuttal:
“Of course not, although our actions were a bit rash.

But my majesty, we just want to take back the treasure that has been passed down in the McCoy family for thousands of years.

Besides, those things were taken away by the devil, so it shouldn’t be wrong for us to find a way to get them back.”

Xu Lai laughed and said, "Whether it is right or not, you know it very well in your hearts.

If it's not wrong, why do you have to kill people to silence them, and why do you have to act secretly?
If you want anything back, just tell me and I might give it back to you.

But if you try to steal my things secretly, you are showing contempt for me.

However, repairing the teleportation array is a great achievement no matter how you look at it.

Now, I give you a chance, you can choose to use this great merit to offset a fault. "

"Offset one?" Devin exclaimed.

"Yes, offset one, you can choose one yourself."

Devin McCoy took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, what punishment will you give to the McCoy family for these two wrongdoings?"

Xu Lai tapped the table with his fingers again and again, and did not speak for a long time.

Devin McCoy didn't hear any sound, but he didn't dare to look up.

The mage's mental power was far beyond that of ordinary people. He could clearly sense that Xu Lai's eyes were fixed on him.

Cold sweat dripped from his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it off.

Feeling that the time was almost up, Xu Lai slowly opened his mouth and said:

"You are indeed a noble who puts profit above all else, but when did I ever tell you that I would punish the McCoy family?"

The cold sweat before might have been deliberately exaggerated, otherwise, with a mage's concentration, it would not have been so easy for him to be overwhelmed by Xu Lai.

But now, the cold sweat on Devin McCoy's forehead really couldn't be stopped.

In order to prevent Xu Lai from punishing him too harshly, he even brought his entire family out.

Devin didn't know whether Xu Lai saw that he was using the entire McCoy family to share the firepower for him, or was deliberately targeting him.

No matter which situation it was, he knew that today's level would not be easy to pass.

“Your Majesty, you just said that one great merit can offset one wrong deed.

What if I have another great achievement?"

Xu Lai was stunned and said, “Well, no matter what your purpose is, I can ensure that the McCoy family and you are safe.

Of course, it was just peace. The nobles of the previous dynasty were not recognized in this dynasty.

Therefore, all treatment based on aristocratic privileges will be withdrawn.

However, your family’s house, including the provable title deeds and shops, will still belong to you.

But the prerequisite is that I must also recognize this achievement, and I cannot leave it to you to judge for yourself."

After receiving Xu Lai's assurance, Dewen raised his head and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said:
"Of course."

"Sit down, don't stand."

Devin, who sat down, breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that he could sit down meant that Xu Lai didn't really want to kill him.

Before meeting Xu Lai, Dewen was very confident. He thought that Xu Lai would at most give him a light punishment or a severe warning, or give him a warning.

In short, as long as he admits his mistake quickly and with a good enough attitude, Xu Lai should not insist on killing him.

In order to help Xu Lai calm down, he also made some special preparations.

But when it comes to his own life and property, he dare not gamble.

"Your Majesty probably doesn't know why I would risk offending Your Majesty and must steal this treasure back."

Xu Lai nodded and said:

"I really don't know yet. Although there are many treasures in the treasury, I took a quick look and there shouldn't be anything too special or too high-level."

"That's because the treasures in the treasury are still missing a most important treasure."

"The most important?" Xu Lai frowned.

Devin McCoy didn't keep it a secret and quickly explained:
"Your Majesty has the Angel Alliance, so you must know that before the Angel Alliance is formed, the other accessories are not particularly outstanding no matter how advanced they are." Xu Lai's eyes lit up and said, "You mean, the treasures collected by your McCoy family are also a complete set of combined treasures?"

Devin McCoy took a deep breath and said, “Yes, the treasures collected by the McCoy family are a complete set of artifacts.

Moreover, this artifact is comparable to that of the Angel Alliance and is one of the top artifact sets in the world."

"Comparable to the Angel Alliance? That's a super artifact level.

If I remember correctly, the cemetery undead already have two sets of combined artifacts, and the source of magic power is in the tower, and it can only be regarded as a holy artifact level.

The harvest horn and the divine weapon have nothing to do with combat.

Could it be the legendary power of the Dragon King?"

Xu Lai's intelligence has reached the level of photographic memory, and he has read the secret scroll of the temple in its entirety.

Even though he knew every bit of the artifact set in this world, he knew a lot about it.

Devin McCoy slowly took out a scroll from his space ring and said:

“Yes, my respected Majesty, the combination of treasures that the McCoy family has been collecting for many years is the power of the Dragon King.

After nearly a thousand years of searching by our people, we finally collected all the combination accessories some time ago.

As the patriarch of the family, the most important synthesis scroll of the whole set of accessories has always been kept by me, and luckily it was not taken away by the devil."

Xu Lai took the scroll handed to him by Devin McCoy, opened it and saw that it was indeed the synthetic scroll of the Dragon King's divine power.

After Xu Lai took a look, he said calmly: "If I remember correctly, the synthesis scroll of the Dragon King's divine power has always been kept by the temple."

Xu Lai had seen this scroll of synthesizing the Dragon King's divine power before. If he had enough merits, he might have exchanged it with the Angel Alliance.

Devon did not panic, but said calmly:

“It’s true that the scroll is in the temple, but the treasures in the temple were not all collected by them.

The temple had helped the McCoy family a great deal in the past. In order to repay this great favor, the ancestors of the McCoy family donated the scroll of synthesizing the Dragon King's power to the temple.

Otherwise, our family’s ancestors would not have known the treasures needed to synthesize the Dragon King’s divine power, and would not have spent thousands of years collecting them.

Most importantly, the temple failed to keep these treasures properly.

Fortunately, our McCoy family’s ancestors left a unique magic mark on the scroll of the Dragon King’s power.

Otherwise, when the Holy City is destroyed, the scroll of the Dragon King's power will also fall into the hands of the devil."

Falling into the hands of the devil is the same as falling into the hands of Xu Lai.

Of course, it’s hard to be sure, after all, this is a complete set of super artifacts.

Plus, with all the accessories, Kerrigan might just swap out his demon suit for the Dragon King's power.

Xu Lai just glanced at the scroll. The number of parts required for the Dragon King's power was extremely exaggerated, actually 9 in total.

Even among these 9 treasures, none of them are particularly precious. Most of them are of primary, intermediate and high levels. Only the Red Dragon Sword and Dragon Armor are relatively hard to find.

The kits needed for Dragon King Power are:
Dragon eye ring, dragon tooth necklace, red dragon sword, dragon shield, dragon armor, dragon bone greaves, dragon wing robe, dragon tooth crown, dragon eye ring.

These kits alone add a large number of attributes. After being combined into the Dragon King's power, an additional 6 points are added to all attributes, for a total of 30 attributes.

In addition, the Dragon King's divine power can also give his dragon troops 30 points of attack power, 30 points of defense power and 50 points of health.

With a complete set of Dragon King's divine power, Kerrigan's bonus to the demons under his command will definitely be taken to a higher level.

Compared to his already extremely exaggerated personal abilities, he might change into this strategic suit that is more suitable for the battlefield.

Moreover, the greatest use of the Dragon King's divine power is that it can make all of his troops unaffected by level 1-4 magic.

Unfortunately, the accessories of the Dragon King's divine power are of a low level.

The Red Dragon Sword, Dragon Armor, and Dragon Shield are mainly used for offense and defense, and are far inferior to those of the Angel Alliance.

Not being affected by 1-4 level magic has both advantages and disadvantages. After all, you can't withstand damaging magic, and you can't withstand beneficial spells either.

I can only say that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. You don't need to defend at all and can just focus on casting spells at the enemy.

But after all, it is not as good as the ultimate prayer. This spell obviously has a wider range of applications.

The most important thing is that Xu Lai has no dragon troops.

The only one under his command who has dragon troops is Lena. Relying on the elves, Stone Castle, outdoor buildings and dungeons, she can obtain green dragons steadily every month.

In addition, Xu Lai also gave her a Dragon Heart, which can summon a group of dragons for free before each battle.

If that's the case, this set of artifacts is undoubtedly most suitable for Lena to use, since he can't change it anyway.

If he wanted to change, he would not only have to dismantle the Angel Alliance, but also the Holy Blood Bottle, as well as a series of artifacts such as the King's Cloak, which would not be worth the cost.

"Yes, I have approved this scroll, and I promise you here that I will forgive all the past events.

But I still want to remind you that I can let go of what happened before, but if the McCoy family thinks they can rely on this, they are very wrong. "

Devin quickly stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your magnanimity. The McCoy family is willing to serve you at any time."

Xu Lai waved his hand and said, "Master, there is one thing I don't understand.

I'm sure you know better than me how precious this set of artifacts is.

Since you have a way to take those nobles away, why would you rather offer this scroll and ask for my forgiveness?"

Devin smiled bitterly and said, “The prerequisite for me to take them away is to use the teleportation array.

But you sent people to watch the teleportation array day and night, so it is almost impossible for me to activate it without your knowledge.

If I don’t use the teleportation array, I won’t be able to take all the tribesmen away.

Besides, even if they could leave, where else could the McCoy family go?

The Southern Empire is full of businessmen, and we in the McCoy family are all mages, so we are naturally incompatible with those businessmen.

As for the Eastern Empire, it is now in a difficult situation and we would just be cannon fodder if we surrender to it.

The only option left seems to be the Northern Empire.

However, as far as I know, the Northern Empire seems to have a good relationship with you.

I think King Aled of the Northern Empire will not choose to make enemies with you just for the McCoy family.

As for the Dragon King's divine power, to be honest, our family doesn't attach much importance to it, otherwise we wouldn't have handed it over to the temple.

It is said that they have been accumulated for thousands of years, but no one has ever seriously looked for these treasures.

We are just a group of mages. Although this treasure is valuable, it can only be used by heroes.

Since it is of no use to us, we might as well find a suitable owner for it.

As it happens, the McCoy family also needs a suitable master." (End of this chapter)
