"Someone's attacking Rollie City!"
"Is there going to be a family war?"
Following Gray and Maruna's successive attacks, loud noises spread throughout the city. Many residents of the city walked out of their houses in panic and horror, looking in the direction of the sound.
A few hours ago, Rollie City had suddenly banned entry and exit and activated a defensive barrier. At that time, they had vaguely guessed that there might be a powerful enemy attacking. Now, they had received confirmation that there was indeed a powerful enemy attacking.
This made them anxious and frightened. Who would be the most seriously affected when a family war broke out, especially in the city?
It was them, the residents of the city!
In the previous battle in Manwell City, although Gray had tried his best to control the range of the power, more than a hundred residents had still died in the battle.
In the face of the destructive power of Magic Light, ordinary residents were as weak as ants. If they were not careful, they would be affected and die.
"Gray Fergus is attacking!"
Among these people, there was no sign of the various families in the city. The families in the city had already received the news from various channels that the Rollie Family had provoked a powerful enemy.
They either temporarily evacuated Rollie City and hid in other cities to watch from afar, or hid in sturdy secret rooms to wait for the storm to pass.
The only family forces that could be seen in the city were the people of the Rollie Family. Their complexions were not much better than the ordinary residents. All of them looked panicked and solemn.
They climbed up the city walls and anxiously watched the defensive barrier that was under continuous attack.
Gray Fergus's strength was not something the Rollie Family could withstand. There was no doubt about that.
The defensive barrier that the family had set up in the city for hundreds of years was their last line of defense. If even this layer of defensive barrier could not stop the enemy, then what awaited them was likely a massacre, just like their companions who had died in Manwell City.
"It's blocked!"
"The defensive barrier blocked their attack!"
Seeing that Gray and the other person had been attacking for more than ten minutes without causing any damage to the defensive barrier, the people of the Rollie Family could not help but sigh in relief. They wiped the cold sweat that had already crept up their foreheads.
The defensive barrier was the reason why they were unwilling to leave the city. Fortunately, the defensive barrier did not disappoint them and blocked the enemy's attack.
"Your Excellency Gray, I'm Aubrey Rolle, the head of the Rolle family. I know that you're very angry with the Rolle family for what we've done, and we're willing to compensate for our mistakes. Please spare the Rolle family this time!"
On the city wall, the head of the Rolle family, Aubrey Rolle, who was wearing battle armor and surrounded by the members of the Rolle family, also let out a sigh of relief before opening his mouth to speak.
"Spare the Rollie Family?"
Flying in the air, Gray had a cold smile on his face as he looked down at the head of the Rolle family, Aubrey Rolle.
"It's not impossible!"
"What are your conditions?"
Aubrey Rollie and the other members of the Rollie Family were overjoyed to see the other party relenting.
He wasn't afraid that the other party's conditions would be exaggerated, but he was afraid that the other party would reject him without any room for negotiation.
As long as there was room for negotiation, there would be a chance to mediate, and they would be able to negotiate the exaggerated conditions into something both parties could accept.
Even if the conditions were more exaggerated, as long as they could resolve this crisis and get a chance to breathe, they would be willing to accept it.
"Slaves belong to me, slaves for generations to come!"
Standing in the air, Gray curled up the corner of his mouth to a certain degree.
"Impossible, impossible!"
"You want the Rolle family to be slaves for generations to come? Impossible!"
Aubrey Rolle didn't even respond to Gray's conditions, but many of the Rolle family members were already roaring angrily.
They were so angry that their faces were flushed red, and their eyes were spitting fire. They looked like they wanted to charge out and fight Gray to the death. It was rare for them, who had been living like princes, to be so bloody. What was a slave?
Everything belonged to the master, and their life and death were at the master's mercy. Just like Kensa, even her body belonged to the master, Gray. This was a slave!
Making the Rolle Family, who owned a city, controlled the lives of millions of people, and were used to being high and mighty, slaves was even more unbearable than killing them!
"Your Excellency Gray, the Rolle family will never agree to your conditions!"
Aubrey Rolle said with an ashen face as he forcefully suppressed the surging anger in his heart.
Becoming a slave was the most humiliating way to surrender in the Origin World. He couldn't agree to it no matter what. If he agreed, the Rolle family would never be able to raise their heads again, and he would be a sinner of the Rolle family.
Facing the fiery gazes directed at him, Gray's expression remained the same, and he looked back at them with great interest.
Now that they knew how to be angry, why didn't they think about his anger when they tried to take him by force, and when they failed to take him by force and sent experts to kill him?
People had to pay the price for what they did. Since the Rolle family wanted his life, they naturally had to pay with their lives. Being a slave for generations was already a relatively mild condition. At least he would still be alive, even if his life would no longer belong to him.
"These are my conditions. If you don't agree, then I'll have no choice but to wipe out the Rolle family!"
Gray looked at Aubrey Rolle, and the coldness in his eyes even made Aubrey, a Magic Light expert, not dare to look straight at him.
"Arrogant! You think you can wipe out the Rolle family?!"
"With the defensive barrier, my Rolle family is already in an invincible position!"
"Right, as long as we don't leave the city, he can't do anything to us!"
…
In the Rolle family, there were old men fuming with anger, middle-aged men with bloodshot eyes, and young men with smug expressions.
Gray's humiliating conditions had infuriated the Rolle family, and the fact that the defensive barrier had not been breached under Gray's attacks gave the Rolle family great confidence. They began to curse without restraint.
Gray's cold gaze swept over the cursing people one by one. Everyone who was swept by his gaze couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. Their bodies were faintly cold, and a cold air poured into their bodies. They subconsciously lowered their heads.
But when they remembered that the defensive barrier was in place and that the other party could not enter the city, they could not help but muster the courage to glare back at Gray.
"Do you really think that I can't do anything to you with this turtle shell?"
With a cold face, Gray turned and flew away from Rolle City.
"Gray Fergus left!"
"Haha, knowing that he can't do anything to the defensive barrier, Gray Fergus left with his tail between his legs!"
"Hmph, so what if he's strong? If he can't break the defensive barrier, he can forget about doing anything to my Rolle family."
Seeing Gray turn around and leave, the people of the Rollie family were filled with excitement and excitement, as if they had won a battle. But in fact, from just now until now, under Gray's power, their hearts were trembling, and they did not dare to walk out of the defensive barrier.
"This matter is far from over!"
Only the patriarch, Aubrey Rolle, and a few others did not relax, and their hearts were still filled with deep worry.
Although the defensive barrier had stopped the enemy and caused them to return empty-handed, it was impossible for the defensive barrier to remain open all the time. For a short period of time, the resources in the city would be sufficient for self-sufficiency. However, as time passed, the city would inevitably run out of resources.
So the threat was far from over. As long as they did not reach an agreement with the other party, the threat would not be resolved.
Thump, thump, thump!
With the crisis temporarily resolved, the Rolle family prepared to withdraw from the city wall and retreat back into the city. But at this moment, a huge commotion suddenly appeared, like a beating drum, one after another, extremely rhythmic.
"What's going on?"
"What's going on?"
The members of the Rolle family looked in the direction of the sound, and then their expressions changed. Some of their eyes widened in shock, and some of them trembled in fear.
In the distance, a huge monster was striding over. Its four legs were not moving at a fast pace, but its speed was extremely terrifying. Every step it took was enough to move dozens of meters forward.
This was a huge monster with a body length of more than 40 meters. Its body was not covered with scales, but a black cuticle with a defense that was no weaker than scales.
Its huge eyes were the size of millstones, and its slightly flat mouth revealed crisscrossing sharp teeth, each of which was like a giant blade.
Its body was covered with thick sharp spikes, especially its tail, which was so densely packed that it was enough to make one's hair stand on end.
"A disaster-level blood beast … Bramble Calamity Crocodile, no, how is this possible?
How can a disaster-level blood beast appear here? "
"How, how can this be?"
"It's over, Rolle City is finished!"
Everyone's expression turned into despair, and some of them were so frightened that they screamed without caring about their image.
If it was any other time, their companions beside them would definitely remind them to pay attention to their manners, but at this moment, no one did so. It did not mean that their companions were more likely to forget their manners than them.
"How can this be?
Is the Rolle family destined to be destroyed? "
With dejection in his eyes, Aubrey Rolle's face was filled with a bitter smile.
A disaster-level blood beast was the embodiment of disaster. Wherever it appeared, it would definitely bring about a devastating disaster. Rolle City was not a city near the Forbidden Forest, but they did not expect to encounter such a disaster.
"Look, there's someone on the Bramble Calamity Crocodile's back!"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed in disbelief. When the others looked over, they were immediately stunned.
Behind the Bramble Calamity Crocodile, a person's figure could be clearly seen.
It was a black-haired young man. His hair was as black as ink, and his figure was tall and slender. The clothes on his body fluttered in the wind, making him look very elegant.
At this moment, the other party was looking at Rolle City, his eyes cold and indifferent.
"It's him, it's Gray Fergus!"
"How can this be?
He actually has a disaster-level beast! "
The faces of the Rolle family members were as white as a sheet of paper. The ones who had cursed Gray the most arrogantly were even trembling and sitting on the ground in fear.
The defensive barrier was where their confidence came from, but now it seemed that this confidence was no longer as secure as it used to be.
They could already imagine what awaited them after the other party broke through the defensive barrier.
