Chapter 516
Chapter 516 Goblin Royalty
Tigule’s bargaining chips were insufficient in front of the forceful Greem.
Even though the value of the plane world coordinates in his hands were worth way more than the list of some no-good rebels, Tigule had no room for negotiation.
In fact, Tigule was thinking about whether he would be able to safely retreat after he completed the trade,and how he should proceed with the completion of the deal.
While Greem and Tigule engaged in a period of silence, the ship wreckage floating in the strip of lights finally went to its eternal rest.
The spatial vortex was only two meters in diameter, while the flying ship was a massive object that spanned three hundred meters. When the two came into contact with each other, the small hill of a vessel vanished instantly without a trace as if a giant, invisible beast had swallowed it.
On the other hand, the spatial vortex remained as peaceful as before, even after devouring such a huge object. It was almost as if nothing had happened.
The spots of planar law faults were gradually shrinking under the effects of the plane’s regenerative power. The area where the lights reached had been pushed back to less than two and a half kilometers around the vortex. Judging from what was happening, the speed at which space regenerated would only grow faster.
Once Vanessa married Gazlowe, and her two brothers died in accidents, Gazlowe would share the right to rule over the Empire with Vanessa as her husband. That perfectly conformed to the traditions of the goblins and would not result in a backlash from the conservative goblins and local plutocrats.
It was because they realized this that the royal family had become even stricter with the limitations they placed on Gazlowe.
The various clashes and tensions between the two parties grew ever more severe than before. It was almost at the point where cold steel would be bared.
The registries that Royal Scout Tigule had brought back at great risk made Vanessa’s head hurt. She had thought that she would be able to get rid of the bad apples, and Gazlowe’s subordinates forces within the royal family, when she got ahold of the list. However, she only received a more disappointing result after consulting with many of her ministers and officers.
One couldn’t help but acknowledge that the financial group that Gazlowe had personally raised to such heights was already so massive that it was impossible to deal with!
If they eradicated the entirety of the group, the foundations of the royal family’s rule would also be shaken.
The continuous war that would follow would hasten the collapse of the Empire. Such a thing would only benefit those evil intruding adepts.
However, the news that Vanessa received from several subtle means made her feel uneasy.
The evil adepts from that fearsome World of Adepts had been intentionally brought into the Goblin Plane by Prince Gazlowe. Even though she didn’t know what Gazlowe’s motives were, such actions had already placed the Goblin Plane in a perilous position.
If the world coordinates of the Goblin Plane were leaked, the swarm of adepts they would attract would cause the goblins to lose their grip over their own plane. They would fall from their proud identity as the owners of the world, to prisoners and slaves.
That was an outcome that could not be accepted!
