Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 550: Exchange Condition

"Can you give them orders? It's the kind of puppet that they can't disobey when you give them orders and will follow your orders completely. Is that what your followers are like?" Lily's words showed a sense of urgency.

Alan thought for a moment and said, "That's not true, just like Belmond. Do you think he's under my control in every word and deed?" Followers retain independent thinking, they make their own decisions, and to a large extent they are fairly free. Of course, in order to ensure that they would not betray me, such as seriously injuring my master, but not letting me die. When something like this happens, I have the key to unilaterally depriving them of their lives. So you see, I don't want Belmond to become a follower if it's not necessary, because it's unfair to him. "

Lily's eyes shone brightly. She almost pounced on Ellen and grabbed him by the collar with both hands. "Teach me the skill of the Transformation Servant and I will give you the corresponding reward!" She cried.

"This is the crux of the problem," Allen smiled bitterly. "The transformation of followers cannot be taught to others. And there are only six spots left for me to transform."

"I don't believe it!" Lily said word by word.

'"Even if you kill me now, that's what I'm saying. I don't have to lie to you, Your Highness," Ellen said, spreading her hands.

Lily looked him up and down and made sure that Alan wasn't lying. But this made her very depressed. She jumped out of bed and walked back and forth on the floor, repeatedly saying, "There must be another way."

Suddenly, she stopped and looked at Ellen. "Then follow me back to the corridor of the Nether River and help me transform a person into a follower. But she can't stay by your side. Of course, I will compensate you for that. Look at that monkey. The follower should be your bodyguard. Then, I will give you … ten Azure Dragon Knights!"

Alan was stunned. Lily's decision was a big one. The Azure Dragon Knight interfered with Daniel and saved him. Alan knew very well what kind of power knights like Jenna and the others possessed. Ten knights like Jenna were quite a fortune. Moreover, regardless of combat strength, just having ten Nagas was enough to make many men jealous.

Lily gritted her teeth and said, "Don't be too greedy. The royal guards are my most precious possessions. If it weren't for the fact that I have no other choice, I wouldn't have offered them as a bargain. I can protect them and you can get their loyalty. And if they are willing, you can get something extra, such as their bodies."

"Your Highness, since the Azure Dragon Knights are so precious, then I want five. However, I hope you can give me something else. For example …"

"For example, what?" Lily frowned.

"The Immortal Spring. There's no need to add more. Just one or two drops will do."

"What!" Lily raised her eyebrows and suddenly said with a murderous intent, "You can't even think of Old Spring!"

Ellen smiled bitterly and said, "I can't force it either. I wonder if you've ever heard of Origin Energy Confinement?"

Originally, he only asked casually. He didn't expect Lily to actually nod her head, and said, "Why are you imprisoned by Origin Energy?"

Now it was Alan's turn to be curious. He nodded and said, "That's right, I'm already Level 19." I believe it won't be long before I can break through to Level 20. At that time, I will definitely touch the barrier of Origin Energy Confinement. This barrier will be placed at the location of my heart. I hope to find another way to solve it, but if there is no other way, I can only risk breaking through the barrier. So … "

"So you're worried that your heart will be damaged, or even damaged, so you need the Immortal Spring to repair it?" Lily's gaze softened slightly and she said, "When I was healing you, I did feel that the Origin Energy in your heart was somewhat difficult to pass through. So it was imprisoned by the Origin Energy. Alright, if that's the case, I can understand."

She removed the pearl necklace from her neck and took down one of the largest pearls. "There are a few drops of the Spring of Immortality sealed inside. Take them when you need them."

Lily tossed the pearl to Ellen, who took it. Sure enough, she felt a vigorous vitality from the pearl, even more so than the Heavenly Heart of the Bluesea from before. She hurriedly put it away, afraid that Lily would change her mind. Lily snorted and said, "When are you going to come back with me to the Underworld River Corridor to save someone?"

Alan said seriously, "You see, the war in this territory has just ended. It will probably take some time to recover. And I have to go away for a while. How about this, you give me three months."

"Three months. Alright then." Lily said straightforwardly, "Then I'll give you three months, and you don't have to come with me to the Nether River Corridor." Our race's sacred land is still inaccessible to humans. I will bring them here at that time. Choose five Azure Dragon Knights at the same time, but remember, don't use your key on that person. Otherwise, no matter where you flee, I will find you and kill you! "

"If the person you are talking about is not a threat to my life, I guarantee that the key will never open."

Lily nodded in satisfaction.

In the end, when Lily was about to leave, she warned him to be careful of Mason, one of the four dukes of the empire. This was because this Sword Lord was the person behind the Bloody Earl. Although Alan had expected that he would be able to command Eric and invite one of the Ten Saints, Midian was definitely a big shot. However, Ellen was still shocked when he heard the name of Sword Lord Marsen.

Now he only hoped that Mr. Rhine, who came from the capital, would not be Mason's master. It would be even better if they were hostile to Mason.

Alan's injury healed two days faster than he had expected, and on the day he could get out of bed, Lily left with her men. Bad news kept coming from Ark Harbor. Ou Ban's illness was getting worse and worse. In Baggins' private letter, the potion master said that Ou Ban would not be able to live for two months. The shadow energy had already invaded his heart, and now it was being controlled by Ou Ban's own strength and medicine. Under the attack of the shadow energy, Orban's organs would gradually collapse, and in the end, he would still be unable to prevent the arrival of death.

This process would be long and painful for Ou Ban. Baggins' personal opinion was that rather than living in pain, it would be easier to take medicine and commit suicide after dealing with the aftermath. Of course, Alan didn't see the potion master's suggestion.

Afterwards, he received another letter from Jorah. Ouban had already sent an invitation to the Marquis of Iron Spear to marry him, and he would probably receive a reply soon. In addition, Oban hoped that Alan would return to Ark Harbor as soon as possible. The count had already begun to prepare his will, and at that time, he would need to sign it as a witness.

Alan replied to Ruo La's letter, indicating that he would return to Ark Harbor within ten days at the latest. Before that, he still had one more thing to do.

The reflection of the castle was reflected in Lake Portilli. In the past few days, there had been a miserable cloud floating above the unicorn castle. The atmosphere was completely different from before. In the morning the carriage broke the tranquility of the lake as it galloped, and two knightly carriages entered the castle. The only two knights left in Daniel's territory got out of the carriage.

They were invited to the conference hall of the castle, and along the way, they could see that the damaged parts of the castle were still being repaired. When they passed by these places, the two knights would always exchange glances. The damaged area stretched from the outer castle to the inner castle. It could be seen how intense the attack on the castle was that day. In the end, they met Barre, the leader of the unicorns, in the conference hall.

"Welcome, Sir."

Barre shouted, "The two knights are invited here today to witness the birth of the new master of this territory."

The two knights were both surprised that Daniel had died in battle, and his son Ante was nowhere to be found. Daniel's title hadn't been renewed yet, so why did a new owner suddenly pop up? One of the knights sneered, "This new owner, isn't he you, Captain Barre?"

"Of course not. I'm just a martial artist. How can I manage Lord Daniel's territory?" Barre stood to the side and said, "In fact, Lord Daniel's territory was accepted by Viscount Lance, who was appointed by Earl Rackard."

As soon as he finished speaking, a long laugh sounded from outside the hall. The door opened and a man walked in first. He looks very young, only in his twenties. On the left and right of the young man, there was a line of guards wearing black gold armor. Everyone was arrogant and arrogant. Barre immediately greeted the young man and bowed to him. "Lord Lance is Earl Rackard's nephew. I believe that under his management, the territory will be revived."

"Of course. If I don't even have the ability, why would Uncle Rackett let me manage this territory? Don't worry, I guarantee that it will return to its former state very soon. Furthermore, Uncle Rackett has already decided to help me drive away those damned intruders." The young man said with high spirits.

Sir, look at me, look at you. They all knew that Earl Rackett had watched Daniel die in battle and that his son Unte had not succeeded to the throne. It was a good time to take advantage of this emptiness to seize the ownership of this territory. If anyone objected, it would be akin to questioning Earl Rackett. These two knights were only the lowest ranking of Daniel's subordinates, so how could they dare to object? They immediately pushed on their smiling faces, expressing their approval of Lance's power.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from outside the meeting room. Lance frowned. Barre stepped forward and said, "Probably that old thing is causing trouble again. I'll go take a look."

Barre was talking about the old butler. When Earl Rackett interfered, the old butler strongly objected and was imprisoned by Barre. Today, Lance officially took over. Barre had already released him and ordered him to leave the castle. When Lance heard that it was the old butler who caused trouble, he frowned and said, "Kill that old thing that won't die."

Barre answered. Suddenly, the door was blasted open, and a few guards outside screamed miserably as they flew in. Barre was stunned. The old butler didn't have this kind of power.
