"Okay, let's go! Don't keep Master waiting."

190. Meryl waved her hand, and her figure suddenly disappeared.

Erica blinked and quickly looked around, but couldn't find any trace of it, and her expression became serious.

Recalling that Meryl's appearance was also sudden, without any trace being found.

Erica was certain that this strange man was far stronger than her, and might even surpass her uncle.

"Erica, let's go!"

Alice was already used to Merry's elusive appearances and quickly told Erica to go see Luo Hao.

"it is good!"

Erica did not hesitate any longer.

After all, her goal this time was to save her uncle Paul, and the incident with Mary was just a minor episode and not important.

"Come this way!"

Alice led the way.

Erica followed behind.

Alice gently knocked on the door of the study.

"Please come in."

With that sound, Alice turned the doorknob.

Erica then took in the view of the study's interior.

A handsome young man sat in a chair, surrounded by countless magic books. As the pages were turned, the power of knowledge twisted and distorted, making the entire room resemble a magical realm.

At this moment, Luo Hao looked towards the doorway.

"Come in!"

Chapter 136 Erica

"Erica, I know you. In a sense, you are also a hero who contributed to our greatest victory in the last battle."

"You're joking."

Erica gave a wry smile in response to Luo Hao's teasing.

Luo Hao said this because after Erica discovered that the top figures of the Southern European magic world had been wiped out, she quickly united and persuaded the entire Southern European magic society to unconditionally surrender to the "Disburg Grand Alliance".

To be honest, in Erica's opinion, no... I suppose in anyone else's opinion, this kind of deed is not very honorable.

"He's very smart, I admire him."

Most people would be ashamed of this behavior, but Luo Hao is in the minority in this regard.

Although it may not seem honorable, it actually preserved the entire society and continued the family tradition, which, in retrospect, was a very wise move.

"..."

Hearing Luo Hao say that, Erica could only respond with a wry smile.

"I already know what you've come here to ask for. You simply want me to release your uncle Paul, and even other high-ranking figures in the Southern European magic world. To be honest, it's not impossible..."

Luo Hao's gaze fell on Erica, and he seemed to hesitate for a moment.

Erica's heart pounded, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and sweat slowly seeped from her pores.

She understood perfectly that Luo Hao wanted her to demonstrate her value and bring out the value of these people.

"Chief, my uncle is a knight of the highest rank, on par with the 'King of Swords,' and has fought the 'Black Prince.' I am willing to persuade him to pledge his allegiance to you. As for the high-ranking figures in the Southern European magic world, the region is currently in turmoil, with many sorcerers causing chaos. This is because the local magic societies are leaderless and unable to maintain stability. If you are willing to forgive their crimes, they will surely submit to you, stabilize the region for you, and follow your lead."

Erica knelt on one knee and quickly explained the benefits of these people, but as for Tony? She didn't mention him at all.

The reason is simple: first, to avoid suspicion. How could she, a surrendered person, ask the current lord to release the previous lord? What does that mean?

Secondly, she herself didn't really want Luo Hao to release Tony.

Luo Hao clearly possesses greater strength and grander ambitions. As a backer, he is far superior to Tony. So why would anyone need Tony?

They've all surrendered. If Tony is released and feels betrayed, and harbors resentment, they won't be able to handle it.

After all, what Tony couldn't defeat was Luo Hao, who was also a devastating enemy to them.

It's better to keep this kind of enemy locked up.

Therefore, what Erica wanted to gain from the very beginning was her uncle Paul and some like-minded "herself".

Once these people are rescued, they will definitely be subordinate to the "Copper Black Cross," making the "Copper Black Cross" the leaders of the Southern European magic world. With this status, they might be able to advance further under Luo Hao's command.

"A clever girl."

Luo Hao praised her, saying that he had naturally thought of what Erica had thought of.

However, he doesn't care.

Even if Erica's schemes succeed, they will still be Luo Hao's hounds, and only by relying on him can they maintain their glory.

Therefore, this behavior is actually beneficial to him, and he has no reason to refuse.

Of course, it's impossible to release someone based on just a few words.

"..."

Erica's pupils trembled slightly, and her heart pounded wildly. After Luo Hao finished praising her, she could clearly feel that his gaze had become extremely oppressive.

She felt as if she had been turned into a pillar of salt, unable to move at all.

"very scary……"

Erica now understands why Alice unintentionally revealed a hint of fear.

Even so far, Luo Hao's behavior has not shown any brutality, but the imposing aura he inadvertently exudes is enough to make people tremble.

"I'll give you a chance. Take Tony's salt statue to Western Europe and find the Black Prince. Try to persuade him to surrender. Whether you succeed or not, your uncle Paul will be pardoned. If you succeed, I can let you make one request, or pardon one more person."

After saying that, Luo Hao waved his hand, indicating that she could leave.

"Yes, chief."

Erica bowed her head in agreement and slowly left the study.

"Alice, go and bring Tony out to her."

Luo Hao casually gave the order.

"Yes!"

……

"Do you need me to come with you, Erica?"

"No, thank you for your kindness, but this is a test from the leader. I must go myself. Besides, I also want to see if I can get the chance to make a request to the leader!"

In the corridor, Erica calmed down from her nervousness, and her confident and proud demeanor emerged in an instant.

She had always been a proud person, but she was completely suppressed by Luo Hao and couldn't muster any momentum at all.

But once she was freed from the suppression, her spirits naturally lifted.

"Alright! Alexander is a coward who thinks he's clever. As the leader's envoy, he absolutely won't dare to do anything to you."

When Alice spoke of the "Black Prince," there was a hint of disdain in her tone. Although the Black Prince claimed to be the brains among the god-slayers, he was actually the least befitting of a king.

They lacked the aura of a ruler who could conquer the world; instead, they were like rats in the sewers, hiding in the shadows and making petty moves.

Therefore, many people actually speak of him with disdain behind his back.

"Um……"

Erica nodded.

That's the logic, but the danger is just as great.

(Deno's) after all, was a god-slayer who reigned supreme through violence. Luo Hao's demand was undoubtedly an insult to him.

Using "victories" to intimidate others would be suicidal if the target was a powerful god-slayer like Voban or Luo Hao. Even someone like "Black Prince" Alexander, while not daring to kill her, might still take action to teach her a lesson.

You absolutely wouldn't dare to do that if you didn't have guts.

However, Erica is an ambitious person.

She knew very well that this would be her chance to shine. If she could excel in this test, she would likely catch Luo Hao's eye and rise through the ranks.

And... sweet...

"What if...the Black Prince really submits?"

A promise from an existence "beyond the level of a god-slayer".

Just thinking about it made Erica excited, and... she also figured out exactly what else she wanted.
