Age of Adepts

"Since Lord Cappy is no longer viable, let him surrender his power as head of the Commercial Federation."

Encouraged by the eyes of a few goblin bigwigs, in the end, there was still a goblin leader in a stiff Chamber of Commerce uniform with only a left ear on his head who stepped forward, waving his arms and shouting.

"Left Ear, what exactly do you want?" An old goblin wearing the letter robe of the Goblin Salvation Society stood up and glared angrily at this goblin leader.

On his side, the various devotees who always regarded the Goblin Great Sage as the Goblin Savior also gathered around and argued with that left ear.

The Gnome Locke, who had become a 3rd rank wizard, was sitting in a corner in a leisurely manner, gently playing with the short-handled wand in his hand that was encrusted with the finest rubies and whose body was adorned with rhinestones of various colors and exquisite magic patterns, while watching the 'dog-eat-dog' in front of him without moving a muscle!

3rd rank advanced sorcerer strength, or commander of the flagship of the Vassailo Crimson Fleet... with either of these two identities, he would be able to stand proudly above all the gnomes present. Regardless of which side gained power, he would be ranked as a top-ranking target, and would never dare to usurp the interests of the goblins of his Locke line.

That was why he was able to look at the bickering in front of him with such detachment and calm, not to mention the political plots and calculations behind them!

Like Locke, there was also the organist leader, Blackwing, who was beyond the pale.

As the leader of an armed force that had mastered some of the elemental powers that were rare within the goblin clan, Blackwing's individual strength was only at the peak of the 2nd stage, which seemed unremarkable. But under him, he commanded a goblin tyrant blood group that numbered 13,000.

Moreover, the number of 2nd stage among them had reached 10%.

Pinching their fingers like this, the Organists, although their individual strength wasn't strong, had risen to become the number one power of the Goblin Clan by relying on their overall strength. The black-winged leader had also risen to the top, becoming the meat and potatoes that all the goblin powers were competing for.

In addition to the two major branches of the goblin sorcerers and organic warlocks, the most not to be underestimated of the goblin clan was the goblin science academy, which was mainly composed of demonic goblins. They were in control of two level 4 Demonic Puppet Dragons, as well as a portion of the Crimson Fleet.

Thus, the Goblin Academy of Science, a group of guys who were mainly goblin engineers, mechanics, and technicians, became the representatives of the goblin clan, and had a considerable amount of say even within the Crimson Family.

Usually, these powers were well watered, each had their own field of excellence, and rarely interacted and gathered. Therefore, the affection between them could barely be maintained by sitting together and drinking tea and chatting.

When it comes to the interests of each other's factions, it's bound to be a red-hot fight.

Not so much for conspiracies and vendettas, but it was not uncommon to get into fisticuffs and bruises!

In the past, the goblin forces were in disarray, but with the intermediary of the Goblin Sage, they had no problems with each other. But now, with the life of Kappy the Great Sage coming to an end, the entire goblin clan is facing a power shake up and reorganization.

As a result, they have gathered here to covet the presidency of the Commerce Federation in Cappy's hands!

Lying on its back on the luxurious bed, Cappy's face was already too old to look at directly, and the continuation of many consecutive life rituals allowed it to repeatedly cross the life limit of the goblin clan, becoming the first ever green-skinned goblin to live to 600 years old.

However, in this dying moment of life, the power of death that had been postponed for centuries by relying on the power of sorcery was able to find it. It caused its entire body and soul to emit a cold and decaying smell of dying.

"Out... go... let... them... all... out..."

Cappy called out in a trembling, low, faint voice, and the elf priest who had been charged with its care rose to his feet and gave the expulsion order to the room full of shouting goblins.

"Get out of here all, Lord Cappy needs some peace and quiet!"

"We can't go out there, we still have to hear who Lord Cappy intends to have take over as its president..."

"Yes, a goblin business federation that large cannot afford to lose its leader, we must elect a new president..."

"I'm picking the Blackwing boss, it's the only one with the power to hold the seat..."

"Bullshit, Blackwing is already the Organist Chief, it can't do double duty... it would be power imbalance... I'm picking Vice President Bosh..."

"Bausch is too old and won't live more than a few years, we should have picked a younger one..."

"So who to choose...you?"

........

It had to be said that without Cappy, the central figure who was able to reconcile all aspects of the goblins, the entire goblin force was nobody's cup of tea and was immediately in chaos.

If you can't quarrel, fight!

I don't know who took off their boots first and threw them out, but in the next moment, the room immediately erupted into a physical* fight scene of a different kind.

"Kabi-sama...Kabi-sama...no, stop it, Kabi-sama is dead!" The elven priest who had been in charge of taking care of Cappy leaned down his body, only to find to his horror that the Crimson Family's first goblin had lost his breath and breathed his last.

"Alright, that's enough, you ugly bastards... let's give Lord Cappy his last bit of dignity! If you want to argue, go out in the lobby and do it! Now, all of you, get out!" The goblin wizard Locke, who had been watching indifferently, finally stood up indignantly, a wand in his hand, and a dazzling elemental halo of light lingered on his side, which only deterred the chaotic group of goblins that you're buckling my nose and I'm biting your arm.

"Let's all get out of here!" The black-winged leader also stood up, "Let's discuss how to handle the funeral for Lord Cappy first, the rest of the matter will be discussed later..."

With that said, the first one to lead the way walked out of the room.

The rest of the goblins, you look at me and I look at you, could only untie their arms and legs angrily, tidy up their crowns, and walk out of the room one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the only people left in the room were the elf priest and the wizard, Locke, and the dead goblin great sage, Cappy.

"Aren't you going, my lord?" The elven priest looked curiously at Locke.

Locke shook his head and didn't answer her, but bowed respectfully to the corner of the room, "Lord Mary, I have driven them all away as you commanded!"

Lord Mary? Lord Mary, the Blood Queen who rules over the Noble Crimson Family and substantially rules the middle of the continent?

The rank 1 elf priest couldn't help but stare at the beautiful, slender figure that had emerged from the void.

Just from appearances alone, no one could tell Mary's superb and terrifying identity, and no one could tell that she was a super-strong person whose name sent chills down one's spine.

This was a young, beautiful girl with slender limbs and unparalleled beauty!

Her skin is white and flawless, her face is exquisite and perfect to capture people's hearts, small red lips pursed, the corner of the mouth is always hanging a hint of enchanting shallow smile. And its youthful hot body is eye-catching, that roll wrapped in hollowed out dragon skin soft armor under the carcass * body curves exquisite, showing a large piece of snow white pectoral muscles and two bulging plump hemispheres.

In its back, a pair of equally small and delicate black bat wings gently fluttering, more and more to highlight the girl in front of the strands of wild beauty and voluptuous voluptuous.

As soon as Mary's form emerged from the void, her gaze fell on the old and decaying Cappy on the bed, who could no longer be seen.

She quietly floated above the cappy, just like that, looking down on its body, not knowing what she was thinking about.

It seemed that Mary-sama had come to say goodbye to Cappy....

The goblin wizard, Locke, couldn't help but speculate, and even gave a wink, signaling that elven priestess to exit with it, leaving the place to Lord Mary.

However, that elf priestess obviously couldn't bear the faint scent of blood that lingered on Mary's side, and her entire body went limp. Not to mention walking, it was so difficult to even move a little finger!

1st rank and 4th rank peak...the difference between the two was too great!

It had been so large that even if Mary had converged her energy scent, the other party would instinctively and soulfully feel fear and cower. Like seeing the world's most terrifying predator, the elf priestess had been paralyzed in soul and stiffened in flesh and blood, unable to move a fraction anymore.

If she stayed around Mary for too long, even she would be scared straight to death!

"You don't have to leave, just stay here!"

Mary's infinitely seductive voice suddenly sounded in the room, and then as she stretched out her hand, a faint shadow of a soul floated out from the body of the goblin Cappy.

After the death of an ordinary life, the soul would crumble very quickly.

However, Cappy had already reached 2nd rank advanced before his death, so its soul vapour was much clearer and tougher than that of normal people.

After crawling out of the body, Cappy's soul stood in a confused pestle in the void, and it took a moment of trance before he recognized Mary in front of him.

"Lord Mary, I am no longer able to do this and will be leaving you soon. Cappy is here to say goodbye to you!" Kappy's soul knelt down in mid-air, kowtowed a few times to Mary, and sobbed, "Lord Mary, it's been an honor in my life for Kappy to have met you and Lord Grim... Next time I see Lord Grim, please remember to say goodbye to him for me! "

Hearing the words, Mary couldn't help but sigh grudgingly.

"You're a guy who seems destined for a lifetime of good luck! I kind of understand now why that bastard suddenly gave me such a nice thing. Hmph, cheap..."

With that, Mary prodded and pulled out an object from her bosom and threw it before Cappy Soul.

It was a beautiful, almost breath-taking golden mass of light, with a brilliant and colorful golden thread snaking around inside the mass of light.

For some reason, when the goblin wizard Locke's eyes landed on this thread, its breathing suddenly stopped, and its entire body tensed, its heart and soul trembling and thrumming.

Get it...get it...get it....

Locke's whole body was full of spirit longing to get this golden thread, and it was a good thing it was still sentient, using all its strength to keep itself from making an impulsive move.

What was this thing? How do you possess such a powerful power of seduction?

Locke couldn't help but be horrified!
