Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 584 Negotiations Failed

Reality is often more serious than expected; just one week later, cries for help are rising from all over the world.

The crisis brought about by ice and snow disasters is not only low-temperature diseases, but also the large-scale cessation of crop growth, and even the direct death of some crops.

This is the worst news for humanity, and it carries a deep sense of worry and fear both online and in real life.

Wang Teng only stayed at Xihu Xiaozhu for a week before returning to Yaoyang Castle, leaving only a few guards at Xihu Xiaozhu.

A week later, when he returned to Radiant Castle, he could clearly feel the uneasy atmosphere that enveloped the city.

Affected by the cold wave, Yaoyang City has also returned to a world of ice and snow.

On the top floor of the castle, under Xiao Yanji's expectant gaze, Wang Teng broke off another small piece of Lava Heart and then kneaded it into a fist-sized bead.

Then, the lava orb carrying the power of an emperor was placed on the highest spire of Radiant Sun Castle. Without any force to block it, the scorching light spread out!

Within a ten-kilometer radius, the heavy snow melted rapidly, and the temperature rose sharply, spreading evenly in all directions under Wang Teng's dimensional power.

At this moment, Radiant Sun Castle has become a true symbol!

The lava orb radiated warmth like a miniature sun, and the cold currents vanished instantly!

In just half an hour, almost the entire city felt the temperature return, and even the gloomy sky gradually cleared up.

The sun's rays shone on the earth again, bringing joy to the people who had been shrouded in the gloom of the cold snap!

Wang Teng returned to the platform below the tower's spire and looked at the gathered crowd, saying, "This lava orb possesses the power of an emperor. If there is no significant external interference, it can last for a very long time."

"Won't it get stolen if we put it there?" Lin Yunxi asked with some concern. Although Yaoyang Castle was very safe, no one could guarantee that such a treasure wouldn't be coveted by others.

"Don't worry, they can't steal it!" Wang Teng said casually.

"This news will probably spread very soon, and cities all over the world will be asking you to buy this treasure," Leng Qing said, looking up at the jewel radiating heat at the top of the tower.

"I wouldn't mind selling them one if they offered me a complete Earth Core in exchange," Wang Teng said nonchalantly, shrugging his shoulders.

Do you really think he's a great philanthropist? Someone who'll trade anything?

Some insignificant items, such as blood serum, can be sold without a problem, whether they are cheap or expensive.

The Heart of Lava is the energy core of the Yadi Lava Beast, even more precious than the Core of the Earth.

A single Earth Core can only buy a piece the size of a fist; that's a seller's market!

After Wang Teng finished speaking, he took Xiao Yanji back to his room. In the end, Yaoyang City was still under his control, so it was necessary for him to take action to maintain the safety of the city.

The internet speed is incredibly fast, not to mention that Yaoyang City has always been a popular city worldwide.

Various self-media outlets have published news on international online platforms, and each news story deeply reflects the true essence of shock media culture.

"Shocking! The real Radiant Sun City!"

"Shocking! A land of hope for humanity's rebirth!"

"Shocking! Where did the snowstorm go when I woke up?"

"Shocking! Yaoyang City actually..."

……

Countless netizens erupted in anger below, especially those from southern Africa, Australia, and South America, who were initially the hardest hit.

These people were filled with complaints and went to the location of their respective continental magic associations to protest and shout, braving the heavy snow to surround the magic association headquarters building.

A magical artifact capable of illuminating and warming an entire city—what a treasure it would be for humanity in its current predicament.

Why can other cities do it, but our own city is helpless?

They don't want to figure out the problem; they just want to be treated the same.

In just half a day, people from all over the country were green with envy for the treatment they received in Yaoyang City. However, there was one thing that was very sad: it was very difficult to immigrate there.

Rumors have long circulated that Yaoyang City is saturated with permanent residents, in addition to a large number of tourists who rent rooms and reside there permanently.

The rental market here is completely full, let alone buying a house; there are simply no vacancies.

Many of those who entered Yaoyang City early on reaped the benefits, with their assets increasing tenfold or even dozens of times.

In addition, since it is forbidden for outsiders without proof of residence to stay here for extended periods, they have no choice but to retreat to the nearby Seoul base city.

Compared to the prosperity and safety of Yaoyang City, Seoul Base City is much less so, but it has also benefited from the advantages of Yaoyang City.

However, no matter how noisy it was online, the Five Continents Magic Association remained strangely silent.

In fact, Wang Teng's secretary, Leng Qing, had already been contacted by phone. After learning that the Earth Core was required as the price for the purchase, they basically gave up.

The Essence of the Earth is a nation's top strategic resource, signifying the guarantee of forbidden spellcasters, and representing a foundation on par with nuclear weapons.

Aside from a few major magical nations and the magic associations of the five continents, the possibility of other forces having stockpiles of this item is extremely small.

Even if they had it, they wouldn't be willing to spend it to buy that thing that seemed only useful to the city but useless to themselves.

As time passed, the online buzz about Radiant City gradually died down. In April, the Magic Associations of the Five Continents held a World Magic Conference in Athens, a city below the Parthenon!

This news has garnered worldwide attention, suggesting that a solution to the current predicament facing humanity may soon be possible.

There are even all sorts of rumors flying around, saying that they will negotiate with the Emperor of Antarctica, possibly to stop this global cold wave.

There are also rumors that they will solve the problems facing Europe and negotiate with the Lord of the Sahara!

However, such a world magic conference is destined to be impossible to be open to the public, and only the top forces in the magic world are qualified to participate.

The public online can only speculate endlessly about the content of the meeting in an attempt to grab attention.

While the outside world is bustling with activity, Radiant Sun Castle continues its orderly life.

Wang Teng often trained with Xiao Yanji, and seeing that her training wasn't fast enough, he would often feed her some summoning magic energy to stimulate her.

May has arrived.

A secret message suddenly spread among the top magical forces, but this message caused them to fall into collective silence!

Wang Teng, who was in the Radiant Sun Castle, was overjoyed at the moment, as the souls of ten forbidden spell masters gathered from all over the world.

Through the memories of these souls, he learned that this group of people had indeed gone to do something meaningful. A total of fifteen forbidden spellcasters, led by the Parthenon Temple, went to the Antarctic Circle to negotiate!

The result was that, at the cost of severely injuring and killing ten forbidden spellcasters, the Antarctic Emperor's plan was thwarted, and the cold wave disaster was temporarily halted.

The remaining five lightly injured forbidden spellcasters, along with the ten critically wounded and dying forbidden spellcasters, fled the Antarctic Circle in a sorry state!

The battle was almost a complete rout, but they still inflicted considerable damage on the Antarctic Circle, leaving a vast rift valley stretching for thousands of kilometers.

The release of various forbidden spells caused terrifying damage to the icy continent. Even if the Antarctic Emperor was able to repair it later, it would still take considerable effort.

At least this battle showcased the prowess of human warriors; even if they couldn't win, they could still thoroughly disgust the Antarctic Emperor!
