That man had arrived.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the door.
Alex.
The man who had done his utmost to stem a raging tide by resealing the devil that was about to break through the seal and stopped a catastrophe.
He was also the most powerful knight, or perhaps… the most powerful existence on the Norland Continent in the recent 10 years!
All the races quickly regathered at Chaos City because of that Photostone he brought back from the extreme north.
It was hard to imagine what would have happened if he hadn't discovered the existence of the devil and the army of the dead as well as what a tragic situation all the unprepared Norland Continent's races would be in when the army of the dead marched southwards.
Furthermore, Alex could also be the only one who really broke through the 10th-tier upper limit in the recent 1000 years with his power.
The tribulation lightning that looked just like an apocalypse had indeed shocked all of them.
Meanwhile, guesses about his power became the hottest topic in all races recently.
With any doubts, Alex had become an existence that could influence the situation on the Norland Continent.
Be it Irina, who had always followed him around, or Lantisde, who was obviously loyal to him, people simply couldn't ignore them.
Mag sat next to Irina and nodded slightly.
He didn't deliberately arrive last to flex. It was because he had chatted with the ladies for a while longer earlier.
Moreover, he was punctual. It was these people who came too early.
Mag swept his gaze over the people present. The various representatives were almost the same as the previous meeting, just that only Connie's voice was left
for the orcs.
The Moon Nation's great formation master, Jonas, was present too. He was taking part in this meeting with Babla as the Moon Nation's representative.
The Moon Nation's spell formation masters had been crucial in sealing the half of Cthulhu beyond Chaos City previously.
This was also the first time that Mag asked Michael to seek Moon Nation's assistance strongly.
Cthulhu couldn't be killed. Mag knew that very well.
Even the Elder Things couldn't do it, otherwise they wouldn't have just resealed it back then. They would have simply killed it.
And the people the best at setting spell formations were undoubtedly the spell formation masters under Jonas' command.
Jonas was also looking at Mag now. Their eyes met, and they nodded at each other.
"Master, I know Big Sister Irina. Alex is Irina's man, so it means that I know
Alex too," Babla said softly.
Jonas threw an exasperated and amused glance at her.
Michael stood up, and loudly said, "Since everyone is here, let's start the peace meeting now.
"All of you have the new peace treaty in your hands now. The content is the same as the previous edition and the one we signed 100 years ago. However, in the Boundless Sea Realm, beyond the territorial waters of the Demon Islands, there will be an area that belongs to the Lantisdeans."
The staff members placed a thick stack of documents into the hands of the participants sitting at the round table.
The representatives didn't rush to make their positions known; instead, they all began to read through the fine print. This concerned the interests of all the races, so they had to be serious about it.
The chief of the Flaming Demons angrily said, "The Boundless Sea Realm has already been our private plot. Why should we let them occupy a stretch of territorial waters? Furthermore, it's very close to our Demon Islands. Perhaps they might target our territory one day. I object to it."
"That's right. It's just a race that popped up from nowhere and tried to occupy our sea," the Abyss Demon chimed in, stating his displeasure on this clause too.
Camilla looked at the two of them, and said in a mocking tone, "Although this is a race that popped up from nowhere, they do have more than ten 10th-tier powerhouses, and they are a powerful race that has Alex's support. Moreover, they can survive in the ocean with a blessed racial superiority.
"If the army of the dead march southwards, Lantisde, who is able to survive underwater, is definitely going to be the race that would outlast all of us.
"Now, they are joining us to resist the army of the dead willingly, and all they want is a stretch of territorial waters that they are living in right now. Do you think you have the right to object? Or can you go underwater to chase them away?
"You.."
The two chiefs were at a loss for words. They didn't know how to refute her.
The Flaming Demons' chief flared his nostrils, and said, "The vampires have indeed chosen a lousy chief! Maynard was at least more courageous than you."
"No. Maynard was replaced by me because he was too cowardly." Dracula, who was slumping in his chair, sat up gradually, and swept his gaze over the top 10 demon tribes' representatives. "This is the attitude of the vampires. We prefer a friendly neighbor to a powerful opponent. Moreover, the other party might not even be interested in your puny islands."
All the demons looked at one another. After a brief discussion, they reached a consensus: they agreed to acknowledge Lantisde's existence.
This was a reluctant decision.
Just as Camilla said, no matter how unhappy they were, they couldn't go fight it out with the Lantisdeans in the sea.
Moreover, the other party had Alex's support right now. They might not be able to defeat them, either.
Mag looked at Camilla with upturned lips. This woman rarely displayed her smart side.
The demons had reached a consensus, so it saved them some trouble.
As for the fight for territory, the orcs had lost their will to fight after they changed their chief.
The Roth Empire was the closest to the threat of the army of the dead. They were still waiting for the other races to negotiate their terms and send troops to help them out. They had already lost their right to negotiate.
There were a few demon tribes that were ready to make trouble, but since they were having an internal conflict, they couldn't do it even if they wanted to.
Therefore, this treaty had basically received all the tribes' approval, which was expected.
Michael nodded, and was about to ask his staff to prepare the sigmng ceremony.
Right at that moment, Connie suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"
"Chief Connie, what would you like to say?" Michael asked.
"We orcs agree to sign this treaty, but before that, I have a condition for King Andre of the Roth Empire to agree to," Connie said to Andre.
Everyone looked at Connie. The orcs and the Roth Empire had just had a tragic war. A feud like this couldn't be erased so easily.
Andre's expression turned solemn too. He sat up properly, and said to Connie, "Please go ahead."
Connie stood up gradually, and said to Andre, "Even though the investigations showed that it was Josh who initiated the Roth Empire's war on the orcs after he sold his soul to the devil, this war has caused huge damage to us orcs. Dozens of tribes were massacred and annihilated in this war, and hundreds of thousands of orcs perished, leaving ruins everywhere in the Twilight Forest.
"Before we sign the new treaty, we orcs need the Roth Empire to address this matter formally. We have to resolve the damage and losses inflicted on the orcs by this war first.
"Otherwise, we orcs will never sign onto the treaty, and we will use our own methods to seek revenge for our dead tribesmen."
Is it Mamy Restaurant's special performance today?
Mag couldn't help thinking about it when he looked at Connie with a cocked eyebrow..
