Full-Time Magister: The Failed Knight, But the Dark Angel

Chapter 204 The Mastermind: Ding Yumin

"We must be wary that they might be bait sent by Mu Nujiao to lure us away."

Eileen suddenly said, her beautiful and noble face showing great caution, "If the Shenzhou team has also secretly completed its assembly, although we have ten people, we may not be able to take down their seven."

Heidi agreed. "Grand Duchess Eileen's concerns are valid. Why don't we call Stark and the others over as well?"

Eileen refused, "No, mobilizing too many people will easily be noticed, allowing the prey to escape prematurely."

Zheluo asked, "Then what do we do? Are we just going to let Mo Fan and Ding Yumin go?"

"Of course not."

Eileen walked back and forth with her hands behind her back, facing everyone's gaze. Seeing everyone's serious expressions, her golden eyes flickered slightly, and she smiled as she took out two mithril jars.

"This contains 'Golden Dragon Blood,' a treasure unique to the Victoria family. It can enhance the magic power and recovery ability of mages who drink it for a short period of time."

"Everyone, drink this down. Once you're fully prepared, then go and capture Ding Yumin and Mo Fan. Even if it's Mu Nujiao's trap, we'll be well-prepared. At worst, we'll fight them to the death; the outcome is still uncertain."

Heidi exclaimed in surprise, "It's actually 'Golden Dragon Blood'! Grand Duchess Eileen has really gone to great lengths."

"That's not a good idea."

She didn't doubt Eileen, but she didn't completely trust everyone.

After all, although they are allies, they are also competitors, and it would be impolite to accept something from them rashly.

Even if the other party doesn't use any underhanded tactics, you'll still have to repay their kindness in the future.

Eileen shook her head. "Of course I'm not giving you free drinks. I, Victoria, never do anything that doesn't benefit me. I'm not some kind of philanthropist."

"You guys have some good stuff too, right? Share it with us. Teams without good stuff will have to contribute some resources."

"It's fine if you don't agree, but you won't get any benefits either. Don't even think about drinking my family's 'Golden Dragon Blood'."

Heidi felt much more at ease, but still had some doubts.

Is this necessary?

The other team leaders shared similar thoughts.

Eileen continued:

"You both know Mu Nujiao's strength and the Shenzhou team's strength. You wouldn't be so short-sighted, would you?"

"The Treasure Hunt is our only chance to eliminate the Shenzhou team. Anyway, our Eagle Nation team is not confident of defeating the Shenzhou team in the quarterfinals, so we must seize every opportunity to try."

Heidi, recognizing Azharia's determination to win, agrees with Irene's idea:

"Alright, I also have a blessed treasure given by the saintess, which can provide immunity to a certain degree of black magic damage."

Seeing this, the other team leaders spoke up one after another:

"Since Heidi and Eileen have agreed, we're not stingy."

The Swiss captain produced a highly defensive magic array;

The Egyptian captain hesitated for a moment, then took out a small portion of the Pharaoh's Fountain;

The other team leaders also brought out their treasures.

Eileen laughed, "Once we defeat Mu Nujiao and divide their resources, everyone's investment will be recouped at least five times."

Upon hearing this, the captains, who had been feeling the pinch, looked on with anticipation and drank the golden dragon blood.

A moment later.

Thump thump thump...

Zhelu looked at the captains who had fallen to the ground, and then looked at Eileen in a daze.

He was thrilled by everyone's sincere cooperation and longed to have an epic battle with Mu Nujiao and the others to seize the treasure. Even if he lost, he would have no regrets.

As a result, all his teammates fell to the ground, while his own vice-captain was grinning wickedly!

"Grand Duke Eileen?"

Zheluo felt somewhat melancholy.

"Eileen, what are you doing!"

Heidi glared at her.

She wasn't affected, probably because of some blessing from Asha's Ruya, which made her immune to Eileen's tricks and made her the only survivor besides the Eagles.

"I trusted you so much, Eileen! You've gone mad!"

"Heidi, don't say that."

When Eileen saw that Heidi hadn't fallen for the trap, she wasn't angry at all. Instead, she happily collected the treasures and resources from all the captains, and was extremely happy as she hugged the priceless gems.

"This is much better than going through all the trouble to defeat the Shenzhou team and then splitting the spoils with them."

"Ha, Eileen, you're quite the schemer!"

Heidi narrowed her eyes. "But you've miscalculated. I'm still clear-headed; I can't afford to leave a traitor like you alive. Eliminate me here!"

Although the plan to eliminate the Shenzhou team failed, as Eileen said, collecting the treasures of the captains might be a solution.

Heidi is incredibly powerful; Eileen and Zero are no match for her!

Zhelu realized what was happening, his face darkening. He glanced at Eileen, who had acted on her own initiative, and said in a deep voice:

"I'll hold her off, you take the resources and run!"

Heidi: "Escape? Where are you going to escape to?"

Eileen: "Run? Why should we run?"

Heidi was filled with doubt and surprise.

She sensed the spatial blockade and several familiar presences approaching.

Mu Nujiao, Ai Jiangtu, Dongfang Lie, Nan Jue, Mo Fan, and Mu Ningxue stepped into the cave, where the powerful Shenzhou team surrounded the lone Heidi.

Ding Yumin discreetly played with a hawk, her innocent and pure face smiling faintly. She didn't participate in the encirclement and stayed at the back of the group, taking it easy.

Eileen glanced at Ding Yumin, not daring to underestimate this mastermind:

"As agreed, Heidi and the Captain's alliance has been resolved for you. These treasures are mine, and we'll part ways here. No objections?"

Mo Fan swallowed hard as he looked at the dazzling array of treasures in Eileen's arms.

They were actually approached by Ding Yumin and had no idea about collaborating with Eileen.

Ding Yumin played with the eagle's pupils, pointing its eye—which could transmit images to the outside world—at the soon-to-be-suffering Heidi, and gently smiled:

"Grand Duchess Eileen is a friend of Instructor Ning Wei, and naturally also our friend. Please make yourself at home."

Eileen breathed a sigh of relief. "Zheluo, let's go."

Zhelu was overwhelmed by the series of changes. Upon hearing Eileen's instructions, he looked at his Grand Duke with a complicated expression, and followed behind like a little follower, turning back every three steps.

Mu Nujiao looked at Heidi, whose face was gloomy, and stretched out her fists and feet:

"Everyone, stop standing there! After we've dealt with Ning Wei's biggest threat, I'll go back and take credit for it."

"Yay!"

Thus, audiences around the world witnessed a brutal and inhumane battle.

Even the invincible and eternally powerful Sea Emperor could not escape the siege of the six world lords, including Mu Tianjiao, and was defeated with resentment!

……

The players' seating area.

"Grand Duchess Eileen is a friend of Instructor Ning Wei, and naturally also our friend. Please make yourself at home."

Hearing the voice transmitted by the eagle, and seeing the scene on the big screen where Heidi was surrounded by the Shenzhou team.

Asha's mood plummeted from heaven to hell as she stared blankly at the tragic scene of Heidi's suffering. It was a sight that moved both men and women to tears. The invincible Heavenly Emperor was betrayed by his confidant and, under the siege of the six world lords, stood tall with his pride, ushering in his end.

Watching Heidi being teleported to the arena, so miserable that she couldn't stand up and fell down.

Asha's face was expressionless, but her hands, which were constantly fiddling with the hem of her clothes, betrayed the turbulent emotions within her.

Ding Yumin's words dealt a devastating blow to Asharuya!

When exactly did Ning Wei get together with Eileen, causing such a promising situation to be completely ruined?

More importantly, more importantly...

What exactly is the relationship between that little slut Eileen and Ning Wei?!

Mu Ningwei played with the water cup:

"Asha'ruya, you've lost."
