The Crystal Palace Plan of the Sinner Lord

This is the demon clan. The nobles can declare war and annex each other for anything, but once the war starts, they must be prepared to bear the risk of paying the price.

Chapter 213: Two Missions

Sitting in the office of the Red Castle, Caesar temporarily enjoyed the massage from Irene and Shana.

On the table in front of him was a crystal bottle, inside it was a ball of blood the size of a baby's fist, and you could vaguely see golden flocs floating inside - the heart blood of the Gluttonous King. Once the news of this being placed in the Demon Realm spread, it would be a treasure that the demons would fight over.

It can allow a demon with no bloodline to possess the noble blood of Gluttony, even if it is only one thousandth; it can allow the bloodline of a demon that already possesses Gluttony to be sublimated again and become even stronger.

Caesar should have been happy to receive such a treasure.

However, he was in a very bad mood now and couldn't be happy at all.

This was because the Gluttonous King did not block the news when he bestowed this heart blood. It was not known whether it was intentional or unintentional. Not only did he not block the news, but he also made a big announcement, saying that it was to commend him as a border pioneer noble.

"Damn it!" Caesar frowned and sighed.

When he should have been keeping a low profile, he seemed unable to do so.

In the following period of time, all kinds of troubles will definitely come to you.

"Mr. Caesar, what are you worried about?" Shana massaged Caesar's temple. Caesar was getting taller and taller. Even if he was just sitting now, she still had to step on a stool so that she could barely reach Caesar's head.

"It's nothing serious." Caesar poured the Blood of Gluttony into his mouth.

The absorption of blood takes a certain amount of time, so he turned his attention to Irene and Shana's experiences during this period.

"Have you heard of any valuable commissions?"

Shana and Irene looked at each other, walked around and sat in front of Caesar, took out the parchment they had prepared in advance and handed it to Caesar.

"Since we don't have the identities of adventurers and mercenaries, we can't accept missions. We can only write down the missions we have inquired about." Shana spread out the parchment, which was filled with beautiful handwriting. There were two kinds of handwriting on it. The other one was a little more majestic and should be Irene's.

"I did apply for an adventurer status, but my level is the lowest, white porcelain level." Irene said helplessly, "If you want to accept those valuable commissions, you must reach the corresponding level. Otherwise, even if you have the ability, you can only watch helplessly."

Caesar picked up the parchment and took a few glances at it. The lowest level of task on it was gold level.

Basically, they are all about conquering monsters, gathering intelligence in a certain noble territory of the demon clan, and conquering bandit groups. Caesar can do all these tasks, but the mission locations are either in the heart of the Surien Empire or very far away from the Sunset Forest. With his body size, it is impossible for him to go deep into human society. That would be completely useless.

He looked for a long time and finally fixed his eyes on one of the tasks.

[Gold Level Mission: Enter the Hot Wind Highlands to find Angela, the special envoy of the Holy See, and bring Angela back safely. Description: There is a group of lion demons entrenched in the Hot Wind Highlands, and there is also a leader whose strength is unknown. The mission is only available to Gold Level adventurers. Recommended strategy level 3~5, mission reward: 10 gold coins. ]

"Wow." Caesar was amused and pointed at the task and asked, "Where did you see this task?"

Irene looked in the direction where Caesar pointed and instantly understood why Caesar had just laughed.

"This was posted by Black Tower City. It is said that the client is a noble lady~" Irene said thoughtfully, "At the beginning, the noble lady made a big fuss in the Adventurer's Guild. She was originally going to offer a reward of 500,000 gold coins, but was dragged back by two knights. The receptionist of the Adventurer's Guild was also scared. Black Tower City has not received such a big order for a long time. The whole Black Tower City was discussing this matter some time ago."

"Five hundred thousand gold coins!" Caesar muttered to himself, his eyes red.

"That noble lady is really rich, and is Angela really that valuable?" He stroked his chin and thought for a while.

There seems to be room for maneuver in this matter, after all, Angela is in his hands.

But the problem is that Angela cannot be conquered before her faith is shattered.

He didn't dare to let Angela go back before he converted her into his own, otherwise he would be letting a tiger return to the mountain, which would cause endless troubles.

However, Caesar did not intend to give up these 100,000 gold coins.

This should be the easiest task.

"Did you see anyone take this task?" Caesar asked.

"Not yet when we left." Irene recalled, "Those adventurers and mercenaries seemed to be still waiting and watching. After all, the town of Bona was conquered by the demons of the Hot Wind Highlands, and there are still troops stationed in Bona Town." Speaking of the army, her eyes focused and she said, "Mr. Caesar, more and more troops are gathering in Bona Town. I feel like they might want to attack the Hot Wind Highlands!"

Irene is very confident in Caesar. After all, Caesar can even kill such a terrifying spider demon.

But this does not affect her concern for Caesar, because human armies are not easy to deal with.

This is a deep-rooted concept that she has acquired since she was a child living in human society.

"Attack Hot Wind Highlands?" Caesar almost laughed out loud.

The Surien Empire has been targeting Sirocco Highlands for so many years but has failed to take it down. Now they want to take revenge with a group of knights and mages?

Innocent!

If I remember correctly, the coalition forces of the Human Empire are at war with the Demon King's army, so it is impossible for the Surien Empire to launch a large-scale military attack on Hot Wind Highlands.

He estimated that the knights stationed in the town of Bona would at most launch a symbolic attack, and then give a decent explanation to all the bigwigs who were watching this matter.

In addition to this mission, there is another mission you can take.

[Golden Quest: Kill the Asian dragon in the Tariu Mountains and deliver all the materials on the Asian dragon. The dragon heart must be kept intact. Description: The Asian dragon is estimated to be at level 4-5, and is a red dragon beast. Only gold-level adventurers can accept the quest. Recommended level of crusade: a level 4 professional team of more than three people, equipped with fire resistance potions or fire shield scrolls. Reward: 5 gold coins. If the dragon heart is not kept intact, the reward will be halved.]

This is the most expensive mission besides rescuing Angela, and it is also within Caesar's hunting range. The Tariu Mountains are just south of the Sunset Forest and not far from his territory. Killing the Asian dragon does not require any interaction with human society.

So now there are two problems that need to be solved.

Caesar pondered secretly in his heart.

The first thing is to destroy Angela's faith, and the second is to find a way to raise Irene and Shana's adventurer level to gold level so that they can accept commissions. These two things can be done at the same time.

The God of Glory is a good god.

The core doctrine of the church under his command is to encourage people to be good.

It's like good people will be rewarded, there are no born bad people, bad people can be turned into good people with good influence, we must believe in light, believe in truth, goodness and beauty, etc. In the words of another world, the teachings of this glorious God can be called the teachings of the Virgin Mary.

If you want to make Angela's faith collapse, you must make her understand that the doctrines she believes in are bullshit, that light will never come after darkness, and that good people may not necessarily have a good ending.

Caesar knew that it was very difficult to change a deep-rooted fanatic, especially since there were indeed beautiful aspects of humanity in this world, and those were also the spiritual sanctuaries pursued by some humans.

If he showed malice as a demon, it would not only not cause Angela's faith to collapse, but would also make Angela more resolute in her faith.

"This is really a bit difficult..."

Caesar tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Chapter 214: The Goblin Visits

In the afternoon, an uninvited guest came to the territory. It was a goblin with ragged clothes and a miserable expression. It claimed to be a successful businessman, but its goods were robbed during its escape, so it sought refuge in the nearby demon territory.

Ted Crazyblood brought the goblin to Caesar. When the goblin and Caesar looked at each other, they were both stunned.

"Is it you?" they asked in unison.

This goblin was the owner of the prop store in Mordo City. He reminded him that he had provoked Claude and told him to run away quickly. I still remember that even when he ran away, the goblin boss was still well-dressed. I didn't expect that he had become so miserable after not seeing him for a week... He was wearing a pair of pants woven with leaves and a small leather bag around his waist. Apart from that, he had nothing.

The goblin was also confused. He just asked for help from the lord of Hot Wind Highlands with the intention of giving it a try, because a war had just broken out here, and perhaps there was a lack of supplies and he needed the help of merchants. This was an opportunity for him to make a comeback, so even though he was very scared, he still came.

I vaguely remember that the lord here was a lion demon...

How did he become such a demon?

But since he was already here, he would not ask what happened in this territory. A businessman should do his business, observe more and talk less, otherwise it would easily lead to disasters that could lead to killing.

"Why did you come to my territory?" Caesar saw the goblin staring at him without saying anything, so he asked, "And you look like you're in trouble. Did Modor City send someone to hunt you down?"

“That’s not the case.” The goblin said with a sullen face, wanting to cry but unable to, “I wanted to go to Gosen City with the goods, but on the way I met a pioneer noble who robbed me. I threatened him that goblin goods cannot be robbed, this is the rule of the Demon Realm, but the ogre beat me up and said that I was welcome to come back and cause trouble anytime, and that he would just kill me next time… Sir, although I have nothing now, I have the connections I accumulated in the past, I have experience, and I have a business sense. As long as you spend 100 gold coins a month to hire me, or help me get the goods back, you…”

The goblin didn't continue.

Because he saw that Caesar's eyes were gradually filled with murderous intent.

"It's none of my business if your goods were stolen!" Caesar snorted coldly, "Goblin, if you can't demonstrate your value, you can get out now and get into the pot of the demons under my command."

"Ahem, actually it doesn't have to cost any money..."

The goblin was startled and quickly changed his words, mumbling:

"Do you have any special products in your territory? I can help you sell them at a high price, and I can also buy them for you. If your territory needs anything, you can ask me for help. I also have many brothers who have all kinds of treasures. If you need anything, I can help you find them~"

Caesar originally thought that since this goblin had nothing, he was a useless waste. However, after listening to his self-introduction, he suddenly felt that this goblin might be of some use.

Speaking of the specialty of Hot Wind Highlands, it must be the Fire Crystal Ore. Originally, the Fire Crystal Ore was sold to the Spider Demon, but the Spider Demon was slaughtered, and now he has no channel to contact a new buyer. Isn’t this goblin just right?

"There are fire crystal mines in my territory. What do you think?" he asked.

"Flame crystal ore, a universal metal material." The goblin stroked his chin and said, "The price is okay, I can help you sell it, but it's still too common as a commodity. Do you have some products that can make a name for themselves, preferably ones that other demons don't have."

Caesar lowered his head and thought for a while.

Are mass-produced Goblin Warriors considered commodities?

How will the price be determined then?

He felt that it would not be possible. Speaking of things that other demons did not have, the things that Cesinetti often mentioned to him gradually appeared in his mind.

Yogurt, yes, yogurt.

It is said that this is a precious drink that can only be made by fairies in the entire continent.

He has a production process in his mind.

And it can be implemented as long as there is milk.

"How about yogurt?" He looked up at the goblin: "The demons should also like this kind of drink, right?"

"You, you have yogurt?" The goblin stuttered. He looked at Caesar eagerly and asked, "Do you have some yogurt, or a yogurt production line? Have you enslaved a group of goblins who specialize in making yogurt?"

"It's a commercial secret. I can't tell you." Caesar said coldly, "You just need to tell me whether the yogurt can be sold at a good price!"

“Of course.” Seeing that Caesar was tight-lipped, the goblin knew that he had asked a question that he shouldn’t have asked, so he quickly changed the subject: “The demons themselves can’t make yogurt. Only a few noble families have captured goblins, but the production is very limited. They can’t even eat enough and can’t sell it. If you can have a stable yogurt output, I guarantee that in one year… no, half a year, it only takes half a year for your territory to become the richest noble territory on the border. By then, you might have already built a city!”

Caesar didn't say anything on the surface, but he was moved in his heart. He was very short of money now. If yogurt could make money for him, wouldn't he be able to quickly collect the gold coins he owed to the Tia family?

"So, what's the profit of this yogurt?"

"A can of yogurt can be sold for 10 gold coins." The goblin gestured, which was about the size of two adult fists. "If it is sold to humans, it will be more expensive, because if humans want to obtain fairies, they must cross the Sunset Forest and enter the Fairy Plains, which is equivalent to brushing against the Demon Realm and the Elf King's Court. That is very dangerous."

Caesar already had a rough idea in his mind.

A large bowl of milk costs about one gold coin. If you handle it properly, you can get about 100 cans of yogurt, which is 1000 gold coins. This profit is simply staggering.

He suddenly felt that the memories from another world seemed to not only broaden his horizons, but the knowledge contained therein might also play a huge role here.

"What's your name, goblin?"

Caesar has decided to recruit this goblin.

"My name is Max, honorable lord." The goblin bowed to Caesar.

He knew he was probably accepted.

But more importantly, he seemed to be on the verge of taking over a big yogurt business? It was hard not to be excited.

"My name is Caesar, the new lord of Hot Wind Highlands. Viscount, from today on you are the merchant of our territory!"

"Well, sir." Max rubbed his hands excitedly, "Shall we go check out the yogurt now? If the yogurt is good, the price can continue to rise~"

"Not in a hurry."

Caesar narrowed his eyes, flashing a dangerous cold light: "Didn't you say that an ogre stole your goods? Let's go and get these goods back now!"

"Uh, didn't you say you wouldn't help?"

Max was stunned and even a little touched.

"It's different now." Caesar said, "You are a merchant in my territory, so your goods are my property. If you dare to touch my things, I will make him know how to write the word death!"

Chapter 215: Blocked Business Road

Max never remembered when he had delivered his goods to Caesar.

However, these goods have been stolen by the damn ogre. If Caesar can get them back, it would not be a big deal if they are taken as his spoils of war.

"Is there anything valuable in your cargo?" Caesar's eyes lit up.

"I was in a hurry and left all the good stuff in the prop shop." Max said with a bitter face, "I took away small things that were easy to carry, such as potions, gold coins and some food, all of which were placed in the space ring... There are still a few magic scrolls, but I don't remember what they were."

These things may not mean much to Max, but they are good things to Caesar. The territory is now short of everything, so he is curious about everything he sees.

"Take me to the ogre's territory!"

Caesar acted decisively, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.

"Go to the ogre territory? Go now?" Max was stunned, thinking to himself that he was a little too anxious...

"Go now." Caesar nodded: "I will go and reorganize the army now!"
