Volume 4 Chapter 134 Is it death, or will you work for me?
However, this was just the beginning.
Countless rockets slammed into Runaâs magic barrier and after countless bright fireworks that bloomed around him, there was a medium transport Magic Car that arrived at the edge of the cliff.
There was plenty of cargo on this Magic Car and it was clearly very heavy as it rumbled on the road.
When the Magic Car came to the cliff, Runa took a look and found that there were sixteen strange looking thick cylinders that were like a honeycomb on the back of this Magic Car.
If this thing was disassembled, each one would be like the Magic Bazooka the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards had just used, but they were clearly several times bigger.
These sixteen large cylinders were arranged in a four by four pattern, placed on a rack with a bit of a slant.
The Magic Car came to the edge of the cliff and the black holes of the cylinders were pointed right at Runa who was floating over the beach.
Runa looked at the Magic Car and at the sixteen black holes that were on it, as he began to feel a bit unsettled for the first time.
It was like an evil dragon could appear from the depths of those holes at any time.
When Runa had this idea, there were two short and three long clear sounds that came from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards below. Then the sixteen Magic Bazookas on the back of the Magic Cars suddenly lit up with incomparably beautiful and bright magic glows.
âHong!â
Although there were sixteen rounds fired, because they were all fired almost simultaneously, there was a dull thud sound that came from it.
The glow from the sixteen Magic Bazookas were stronger than the glow from the Magic Bazookas the guards had just fired. Runaâs expression became very ugly.
He was certain that the might of these rockets were more than ten times stronger than the previous rockets.
If possible, it would be best if he found a way to dodge.
But he had promised Xu Yi that he would face all the attacks of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards and these sixteen rockets were very fast, it arrived in front of him as soon as they were shot, so he had no time to dodge at all.
Not to mention that these sixten rockets had a very large coverage range. If he were to dodge them, he might not be able to avoid them still.
Without having enough preparation, even if it was him, he couldnât guarantee that he wouldnât be hurt.
In the blink of an eye, Runa suddenly made the wisest decision. He stopped and gathered all his magic, pouring it all into his magic barrier.
âHong, hong, hong!â
Three of them hit Runaâs magic barrier and immediately released an incomparably bright light.
This intense explosion created waves in the sea, creating waves that reached over two meters on the calm night sea. This was enough to show how powerful the three explosions were.
Runa in the air trembled as a sweet taste appeared in his mouth. There was actually blood in his throat.
If Runa had not reacted quickly enough and forced down that blood, he would have been made a fool in front of everyone.
Although the three rockets were blocked by the magic barrier, Runa found that because of the powerful attack of the three rockets, he could block the might of the explosion, but he couldnât completely block the terrifying shock of the explosion. He couldnât stop the shockwaves from injuring him.
Runa was even more shocked when he checked his magic.
He found that after being hit by the three rockets, there was only less than a fifth of his magic left.
This meant that just the might of these three Magic Rockets were just a bit weaker than the Forbidden Spell Ragnarok Trial.
âBeautiful!â Xu Yi watching the battle from afar gave two claps before praising, âYou really are a Great Magician, you can even block this kind of powerful attack. Great Magician Runa, as long as you can take the next attack, I will keep my promise from before and let you go.â
Juna took a breath and calmed the blood surging in his chest. He calmly looked at Xu Yi, âCome.â
Xu Yi nodded and said a few words to the Magic Communicator in his hand.
Runa patiently waited, but he found that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards didnât keep attacking. He couldnât help being a bit surprised as he asked, âChairman Xu, the final attack? Why isnât it here yet?â
Xu Yi asked back with a smile, âGreat Magician Runa, you want to die this much?â
Runa was stunned before flying into a rage, âWho is willing to seek death? Chairman Xu, are you trying to insult me?â
âNo, I didnât mean this.â Xu Yi shook his head, âBut Great Magician Runa, you should be clear on a fact. You donât have much magic left and the might of the final attack surpasses that of the last two attacks, are you certain that you can block it?â
Runa was silent for a bit before giving a snort, âNonsense! This is your condition, I donât want to agree, but would you agree? Would Great Magician Camilla agree?â
âThat isnât certain.â Xu Yi said with a faint smile, âActually thereâs another chance for you to escape the fate of death.â
Runa narrowed his eyes to look at Xu Yi before giving a laugh, âChairman Xu, although I admit that I am not someone that powerful, I am at least a Great Magician. If you want to use this method to shame me, donât even think about it!â
âI already said it, I donât want to shame you and want to make a deal with you.â Xu Yi shook his head and said, âGreat Magician Runa, can I ask how much the person who asked you to come kill me paid you?â
âWhy are you interested in this?â Runa asked back.
âIâm curious how much Iâm worth.â Xu Yi gave a shrug.
Runa curled his lips, âFive hundred thousand gold coins? How about it, arenât you worth a lot?â
âOnly five hundred thousand?â Xu Yi opened his eyes wide in surprise, âIsnât this too little? Could it be that Iâm not worth that much?â
Runaâs eyes also opened wide as he looked at Xu Yi in disbelief, âChairman Xu, arenât you overestimating yourself? Five hundred thousand is a very large amount, you actually feel it isnât enough?â
âOf course I do.â Xu Yi said without any courtesy, âLet me tell you, our Frestech Chamber of Commerce earns over a million gold coins a month and I as the chairman earn over five million gold coins a year. Now you tell me that Iâm only worth five hundred thousand gold coins? Isnât this looking down on me too much?â
âFive million gold coins a year?â Runa looked at Xu Yi in shock, âAre you kidding? How could that be possible? Even your Lampuri Kingdomâs financial department doesnât even earn that much each year? How could you as a single person earn more than the entire Lampuri Kingdom each year?â
âThat isnât strange.â Xu Yi said with a laugh, âActually, the Lampuri Kingdomâs finances are very poor to me. Just in the Lampuri Kingdom, there are many merchants and nobles that earn more than the kingdomâs finances, this isnât a secret. Great Magician Runa, your surprise on this matter, I can only sayâŠ..you really donât know anything.â
âYouâŠâŠâ Great Magician Runaâs heart filled with rage, but he found that Xu Yiâs accusations in this aspect werenât wrong.
Thinking about it, Runa suppressed the anger in his heart and asked Xu Yi in a deep voice, âAlright, youâve said all these random things, just what do you want to say?â
âI just want to ask you, instead of going through such large risks to earn five hundred thousand gold coins and itâs hard to say if youâll really get it, are you interested in earning at least ten thousand gold coins a year or even up to thirty to fifty thousand gold coins? Moreover, you can even not worry about investing in materials for all kinds of different research?â
Great Magician Camilla and Still on the side immediately understood Xu Yiâs meaning and knit their brows at the same time.
âXu Yi, this fellow wants to kill you, how can you do this?â Great Magician Camilla said in a deep voice.
âRight, Xu Yi, he almost killed us just now, how can we let him work for us?â
Xu Yi waved his hand, âThis isnât anything, he was just bought. Since others can buy him, then I should be able to do the same. Donât forget, I have plenty of money.â
Still rolled her eyes at Xu Yi and didnât say anything.
She knew that since Xu Yi had already made his decision, it wouldnât be easy to change it.
Great Magician Camilla knit his brows to think about it, but he didnât say anything else.
Seeing that these two didnât object, Xu Yi kept asking Runa in the distance, âHow about it? Great Magician Runa, are you interested in this work?â
Runa was silent for a bit before asking Xu Yi, âChairman Xu, you want to recruit me to work for your Frestech Chamber of Commerce? Humph! You are just too naive!â
âNo, no, no, Iâm not naive at all.â Xu Yi shook his head with a smile, âYou just said it, no one is willing to seek death. In your situation, if you donât agree to my conditions, you only have a path of death. You wanted to kill me and Still just now, thereâs no problem even if I were to kill you. But Iâm willing to give you a chance, which is already considered quite benevolent. Alright, you can choose now, death or will you work for me?â
Runa gave a bitter laugh, âDo I even have a choice?â
