Vincent had just walked into the Feathered Monster Race’s stronghold when he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

All the Feathered Monsters in the stronghold were injured. Their faces were pale, and they sat in the stronghold with a dispirited expression. Even though they saw someone walking in, no one went forward or paid any attention to the creature.

Vincent knocked on the door frame lightly and asked softly, “Everyone, I am here to look for Kaeger under the orders of the Ultimate Evil Lord. Is he here?”

The Feathered Monsters only pointed upstairs in a casual manner. They did not bother to ask Vincent the purpose of his trip.

Vincent pursed his lips and turned to walk upstairs. In his heart, he was thinking about the situation in front of him. It was too different from what he had expected.

Logically speaking, after the Feathered Monsters obtained the Bard necklace, they would have a great advantage in the battle. After all, they had a mole who could not be detected by the other party and could make a decisive change on the battlefield.

But why did the Feathered Monsters end up paying such a heavy price?

With doubts in his heart, Vincent arrived in front of Kaeger’s office. He knocked gently on the door.

“Come in!” said Kaeger.

Vincent pushed the door open and walked in. At a glance, he saw Kaeger covered in bandages and had many bloodstains oozing out.

Vincent walked forward with a calm expression and checked on Kaeger’s injuries. He then asked, “What happened? How did you get injured?”

Kaeger’s expression was solemn. It was as if he was unwilling to answer Vincent’s question. However, when he remembered that Vincent was loyal to him, he still replied, “I originally made a very thorough plan yesterday. I was prepared to annihilate all the Bards. However, I did not expect Marcus to rush over right after the encirclement had begun. He had caused many of my subordinates to suffer heavy injuries. As a last resort, I could only participate in the battle. In the end, I ended up like this!”

Vincent nodded and said, “I see. I was curious as to who would be able to injure you to such a state given your level 60 strength. If it was Marcus, it would be understandable!”

“Bullsh*t, what do you mean by ‘understandable’? Do you think that I can’t beat Marcus? Don’t just look at my injuries now, Marcus’s injuries are definitely much worse than mine!” said Kaeger to Vincent with an unconvinced look.

Due to his excitement, he even opened up the wounds on his body. Before he could finish speaking, he was already grimacing in pain.

After seeing this, Vincent could only comfort Kaeger hurriedly. He said helplessly, “To tell you the truth, I came here to speak on behalf of the Ultimate Evil Lord. The fact that you guys are fighting without any scruples has already reached the bottom line of the Ultimate Evil Lord. He has already said that if you guys can’t stop fighting, he will find someone else to take charge of your business! When that time comes, your Feathered Monster Race will lose your business in the capital of Ultimate Evil which is equivalent to losing your foundation. In the end, I’m afraid that you can only be driven out of the capital of Ultimate Evil!”

Kaeger was not nervous after hearing that. Instead, he gnashed his teeth and said, “Since things have come to this, we definitely can’t let it go! If we don’t kill Marcus and all the Bards, who will still respect our Feathered Monster Race in the future? At that time, even if I want to do business, I won’t be able to do it. At most, I’ll risk being chased out of the capital of Ultimate Evil. I’ll take revenge and let everyone know the consequences of offending us, the Feathered Monsters. Only death awaits!”

After seeing how determined Kaeger was, Vincent thought that he might have gone too far this time by fanning the flames. Kaeger and Marcus had become mortal enemies.

However, if they were allowed to continue with their ways, it would definitely lead to one party dying and the other one being chased out of the capital of Ultimate Evil. This would not be of any help to Vincent’s plan!

Vincent thought for a moment and said, “You have to think carefully. If you anger the Ultimate Evil Lord, even if you can kill all the Bards, you will still be chased out of the capital of Ultimate Evil. At that time, who will be afraid of you? What is the point? You will only be risking the lives of more Feathered Monsters and the hard-earned business of your race. The gains do not make up for the losses!”

After hearing this, Kaeger calmed down slightly. He turned to Vincent and asked with a frown, “Then what do you think we should do? I am not willing to stop so easily!”

Vincent smiled slightly and said, “Before I came, the Ultimate Evil Lord had already promised me a portion of each of your businesses. If I can mediate the conflict between you and Marcus, then part of the business that is taken away from both of you will be handed over to me. Just think about how powerful this is. At that time, with the arms sales channel in my hands, you will still be completely in charge of the arms sales chain, and the portion of Paradise of Desire that I have will be the best tool for you to take revenge on the Bards!”

After hearing Vincent’s explanation, Kaeger could not help but fall into deep thought. Vincent’s suggestion had indeed moved him!

In Kaeger’s eyes, Vincent was definitely his most solid ally. Splitting a portion of the arms business with Vincent was no different from keeping it in his own hands. On the contrary, it could dispel the Ultimate Evil Lord’s suspicions towards him. At the same time, it would allow Vincent to obtain the business of the Bards. Not only would it allow him to continue to interfere in the entertainment industry, but it would also allow Marcus to turn his anger towards Vincent who had obtained the Paradise of Desire!

One had to know that the one who stood behind Vincent was the Ultimate Evil Lord. If Marcus still wanted to take revenge, he would have to face the wrath of the Ultimate Evil Lord!

After thinking through the stakes, Kaeger nodded and said, “Alright, if you can get the reward from the evil lord, it will be a good thing for you and me. But how can you get Marcus to agree to your offer? You put in a good word for me in front of him back then. He will definitely not be polite to you now!”

Vincent shook his head and said confidently, “Don’t worry, Marcus isn’t a fool. I’ve more or less heard about what happened these past few days. The Bard Race has always been in a disadvantageous position. Right now, he can’t wait to stop the war. Could it be that he really wants to continue fighting until he’s completely exhausted by the Feathered Monster Race?”

Kaeger suddenly felt a little more confident after hearing what Vincent had said. He could not help but sit up straight and let out a long sigh. He then whispered to Vincent as if he was showing off, “Since brother and I are on the same boat, let me tell you something that I’ve been keeping in the bottom of my heart. The reason why we have been able to gain the upper hand in these few days of confrontation is that my men have unintentionally obtained a treasure. They can transform into the appearance of a Bard and blend in with them. Therefore, not only can I obtain the movements of the Bards at the first opportunity, but I can also use some methods to lure them into our encirclement. Moreover, up until now, that spy is still lurking in the stronghold of the Bards. If I want to, I can give the Bards another heavy blow at any time!”

Vincent could not help but sigh in his heart after hearing what Kaeger had said. Fortunately, Kaeger had told him about this matter. Otherwise, when he arrived at Marcus’s place, he might have exposed himself in front of the spy.
