Starting With 3 S-Class Talents - Chapter 439
Chapter 439: The Purpose of Seducing Criminals Was Exposed
Theodore acted tough in front of Vincent for the first time as many elves were watching. He revealed a smug smile.
Vincent looked at Theodore expressionlessly and asked coldly, “Why? Don’t you want to run away?”
Theodore looked at Vincent as if he was an idiot and asked back, “Do you think I will run away when I know your weakness? Is there a safer place than Serene Spring City for me at this moment?”
Vincent could not help but smile in response. It turned out that Theodore was worried about being chased if he left Serene Spring City. Therefore, he wanted to stay and deal with him as he knew that the residents of Serene Spring City respected the demons.
Vincent said to Theodore with a solemn look, “I can guarantee that you will regret it if you don’t leave now!”
Although Theodore was smiling, he felt weakness inside as he was uncertain whether Vincent would kill him regardless of the other elves’ resistance.
Cameron stood up and pointed at Vincent while berating him loudly, “Vincent, don’t do anything reckless! The Demon God’s envoy is the most honorable guest of our Serene Spring City. If you dare to hurt him, our Serene Spring City will not let you go!”
“Yes! That’s right, you can’t hurt the God’s messenger!”
The residents of Serene Spring City also expressed their support for Cameron and Theodore.
Vincent’s facial expression changed slightly, showing a bit of embarrassment and unwillingness.
Theodore saw Vincent’s face and could not help but become even more complacent.
Vincent finally sighed helplessly and said softly, “Alright, you’re free now!”
“Hahaha!”
Theodore immediately burst into laughter. He became even more arrogant than before. He pointed at Vincent and roared angrily, “Now, I want you to apologize to me! In front of all the residents of Serene Spring City, apologize to me for your previous actions!”
Vincent immediately narrowed his eyes, and a strong murderous aura could be felt from his gaze.
However, Theodore did not feel like he posed any danger to him. Instead, he felt a very strong sense of satisfaction.
This was because he had determined that Vincent would not dare to kill him in public. He was even more certain that Vincent would not abandon the views of all the residents of Serene Spring City. Therefore, he could use this opportunity to make Vincent compromise step by step and take back everything that he had lost!
Melissa, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, watched Theodore’s arrogance grew little by little. He seemed to be on the verge of taking over power from Vincent step by step. She could not help but clench her hands with worry.
She was not worried about losing her position as the City Lord of Serene Spring City. Instead, she was worried about the disaster Serene Spring City would face if Vincent was unable to contend against Theodore!
Meanwhile, the Dark Elves who remained silent or chose to believe in Vincent and Melissa all lowered their heads, because their beliefs have started to sway.
Dave walked behind Melissa and patted her shoulder gently.
He advised Melissa with a serious face, “Don’t look too sad. Control your emotions, or you might not be able to accept the change in the situation later!”
Melissa turned to look at Dave worriedly and asked with a frown, “What change?”
Dave smiled slightly and looked up at Vincent. He sighed softly and said, “Let me tell you this. Since the day I met Vincent, he has never been at a disadvantage. The more others try to take advantage of him, the more miserable their ending will be. So, you just have to wait and see!”
Melissa could not help but be startled when she heard that. She glanced at Cameron, who was in high spirits. She then turned her head to look at Vincent, who was standing on the high platform. Her eyes were filled with anticipation.
Meanwhile, Vincent sighed softly. He seemed to be compromising as he said to Theodore, “Alright, I’ll apologize to you! I shouldn’t have gone after Darren, nor should I have stopped you from stealing the Origin Divine Earth. I even chased after you when you had succeeded as I was trying to take back the Origin Divine Earth for the Elf Race. All of this is my fault. I shouldn’t have interfered with your actions. The fate of the Elf Race should be decided by you. After all, you, Theodore, are one of the strongest of the Elf Race and one of the twelve apostles that everyone believes in. It’s enough for you to be responsible for the Elf Race!”
Theodore nodded in satisfaction after hearing Vincent’s apology. He had never thought that Vincent would lower his head in front of him and admit his mistake. He felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. It even surpassed the feeling he felt when he became a demon!
However, Theodore suddenly frowned and glared at Vincent. He said in a low voice, “If you didn’t mention it, I would have forgotten. You must have taken the Origin Divine Earth from Darren and the others. Now, you must hand it all over to me!”
As he spoke, Theodore stretched out a hand toward Vincent and made a hooking gesture in an extremely rude manner.
Vincent did not hesitate at all. He took out Darren’s necklace happily and the six storage rings that he had obtained from Titan and the others. He was prepared to hand them over to Theodore.
“No!”
At that moment, Melissa let out an angry roar from below. Vincent also stopped what he was doing. He gripped onto the necklace tightly and let it hang in front of Theodore.
Theodore did not think too much about it. All he could think about was the storage ring in front of him. He needed to obtain the Origin Divine Earth and hand it over to Gajero immediately. That way, he would be able to accumulate sufficient merit points and enter the Imperial City and become a true oracle!
At that moment, Vincent had become Theodore’s greatest enemy!
Theodore turned his head and looked down at Melissa. He sneered and said, “What right do you have to give orders here? Everything in the Elf Race belongs to the Great God Gajero. If you meddle in this, I will execute you in public!”
Melissa could not help but get angry. She wanted to open her mouth to refute again, but she was stopped by Dave who was behind her.
Dave shook his head and signaled Melissa not to speak. He then turned to look at Theodore and asked loudly, “Respected apostle, you were right just now. Everything in the Elf Race can be Gajero’s. But as a member of the Elf Race, can I ask you, what exactly do you want the Origin Divine Earth for? And have you been collecting the Origin Divine Earth all these years?”
Theodore’s confidence was unprecedentedly high. He answered without hesitation, “The purpose of collecting the Origin Divine Earth is, of course, to give it to God Gajero! All these years, not only me, but all the twelve apostles have been collecting the Origin Divine Earth for Lord Gajero. Our mission is supreme. You ants don’t need to know too many details. All you need to do is obey the will of God Gajero!”
Dave nodded lightly and asked again, “Then do you know? Without the Origin Divine Earth, the entire Elf World will be doomed. At that time, not only will the residents of Serene Spring City die, but all the elves in Elf World will die as well!”
Theodore sneered and said, “What does that have to do with me? As the believers of Lord Gajero, you should be willing to die for the demons!”
As he spoke, Theodore stretched out his hand and was prepared to snatch the necklace from Vincent’s hand.
However, Vincent was one step faster than Theodore. With a slight flick of his wrist, he threw the necklace into the air.
Following that, Vincent’s right hand grasped onto the Return Journey of the Dead and drew it out of its sheath, shattering all the storage rings connected to the necklace into pieces.
“Bang!”
A series of violent explosions reverberated in the air. A large amount of ice-cold and crystalline Origin Divine Earth rained down on the land of Serene Spring City.
All the elves were dumbfounded at that moment. They all raised their hands, wanting to catch the rain that was falling from the sky. They were very excited!
Every elf understood that the rain in the sky was indeed the Origin Divine Earth. At the same time, they could clearly feel the importance of the Origin Divine Earth to every elf.
“The rain tells me that the rumors are not false. Without the Origin Divine Earth, the elves will really perish!”
“Once the Origin Divine Earth falls down, it will return to the ground and nourish our land again. Only this way can we continue to survive!”
“Compared to faith, the elves need to survive and protect our world more!”
The residents of Serene Spring City seemed to have felt a call from the unseen world and kept sighing.
Theodore also realized that something was wrong. Not only did he lost the Origin Divine Earth, but Cameron, who had been supporting him in the square, was glaring at him angrily. As for the other residents of Serene Spring City, they were all staring at him with incomparably fierce gazes as if they wanted to swallow him alive.
After seeing the scene, Theodore suddenly thought of the hearts of the residents. This was the most invincible and terrifying power in a city. He seemed to have unknowingly offended all the residents of Serene Spring City!
At that moment, an old and incomparably excited voice was heard in the square.
“Kill him!”
Everyone turned to look at Cameron. The old man, who had a strong obsession with power and status, was crying at that moment. He leaned on his walking stick and shouted with extreme hatred.
Melissa took the opportunity to raise her hands and shouted, “The world of the elves is inviolable. The treasures of the elves are inviolable. Kill all the demons and protect the elves!”
“Defend the Elf Race!”
All the residents of Serene Spring City shouted in unison. They all raised their hands and pointed at Theodore.
“Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
Vincent, who was on the high platform, slowly pointed the tip of his knife at Theodore. He sneered and said, “Now that the entire city wants to kill you, it’s my turn!”
