Volume 5 Chapter 134 Final warning
It should be said that Count Willâs guess wasnât far from the truth.
Although Banta City would always be a special city to Xu Yi, that was only in terms of his personal feelings. It made him consider Banta City when it came to decisions and care for them a bit more, but when one looked at facts, Banta City was already not that important for Xu Yi.
The Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs businesses had already been moved out of Banta City, mostly working with the other countries now. Comparing it, although Banta City was the most important magic machine industry city in the Lampuri Kingdom, it couldnât follow the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs direction of development and couldnât influence the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs development anymore.
But if it was said that Xu Yi felt that Banta City wasnât important, so he cancelled his trip and wasnât willing to go to the book giving ceremony would be wronging him too much.
His matters this time werenât that serious, but other than him, no one else could take care of it because this matter involved the elves. In the entire Frestech Chamber of Commerce, other than him, there was no one else that the elves trusted completely.
So while Still appeared at the book giving ceremony at the vocational school, Xu Yi was in the northwest corner of the Black Rice Wasteland, being just a tiny bit away from the border with the Sack Kingdom.
âChairman Xu, these humans are refusing to uphold the contract they signed with us, they wonât let us through.â One of the Moon Shadow Tribeâs guards that was responsible for fighting, Duolette pointed at the Sack Kingdomâs people wearing the uniform of the royal army and angrily said, âThis is the agreement that we made with the highest pledges and they actually wonât keep it. Could it be that these humans arenât willing to keep their word?â
âPay attention to how you speak!â Philip, who was in charge of the Moon Shadow Tribeâs guards, scolded Duolette. Then he turned to Xu Yi with an apologetic smile, âChairman Xu, Duolette is still young and doesnât understand things. Please forgive her.â
Xu Yi looked at Duolette who had an awkward look from realizing her mistake. This fellow was already seventy six years old, she was twice his age, so why was she so immature?
Of course, for the elves with lifespans of hundreds of years, this was an age where they didnât know much.
âWhat did they say?â Xu Yi ignored Duolette and asked Philip this.
âWe came here a week ago and wanted to receive this territory, but we were blocked by these fellows who called themselves loyal guards of the Sack Kingdom. I told them about our contract with the Sack Kingdom and that this territory belongs to our Moon Shadow Tribe, but they said that they didnât know about this contract and havenât received any official notice from the kingdom. So they definitely wouldnât let us take a single step into the Sack Kingdom.â
âOh? Then you havenât tested them?â Xu Yi asked.
âWe did, but when we tried, the other side took out their weapons. They looked like they were ready to fight, so we could only retreat.â
Xu Yi looked at the Sack Kingdom soldiers and estimated their numbers to be around two thousand. Although this wasnât considered a lot, Philip thought that they were just receiving territory and wasnât prepared for a fight, so he only brought a hundred forest guards.
In terms of battle strength, these hundred forest guards without any magic machines could only deal with around a thousand human soldiers. They couldnât fight two thousand human soldiers.
Philip looked behind him with a hopeful look, but Xu Yi shook his head, âItâs not time to send out the company guards yet, let me take a look first.â
Xu Yi appeared and used a Wind Spell on himself, flying over to the square formation of the Sack Kingdom soldiers.
Seeing Xu Yi come over, the Sack Kingdom soldiers raised their weapons and pointed them at him.
âThis is the border of the Sack Kingdom, you cannot enter without permission. This magician in front, if you donât stop, we will attack!â
This strict warning came out of the square formation and Xu Yi stopped thirty meters away from the first row of soldiers in the square formation.
Strictly speaking, Xu Yi was already across the Sack Kingdomâs borders, but not a single soldier made a move.
Xu Yi looked over these soldiers before finding one person who was wearing different clothes, dressed in the officer uniform of the Sack Kingdomâs army.
âI am the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs chairman Xu, Iâm here to give you a notice. According to the contract signed by our Frestech Chamber of Commerce, the Stantine Duchyâs Moon Shadow Tribe, and the Sack Kingdomâs parliament, you are now standing on the Moon Shadow Tribeâs land. I am here to give you a final warning on behalf of the Moon Shadow Tribe, urging you to retreat from this piece of land immediately in half a day. Otherwise, the Moon Shadow Tribe will retain the right to take action.â
Xu Yiâs words were amplified with magic. Not only did the Sack Kingdomâs soldiers hear it, the Moon Shadow Tribe elves also heard it.
When they heard this, not only were the Sack Kingdom soldiers surprised, even the Moon Shadow Tribeâs forest guards were surprised.
They thought that chairman Xu would reason with the other side, they never thought that he would give them a final warning!
But they had never thought of doing this because there was a difference in strength between the two sides, so they didnât really dare to make a move.
Moreover, chairman Xu only brought two hundred guards this time. Even if the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs guards had shocking battle strength, wouldnât they find it hard to defeat the two thousand Sack Kingdom soldiers?
Then again, they had reason in this matter, there was no need to use such intense methods.
As long as they negotiated with the Sack Kingdom side, the Sack Kingdom would properly take care of this problem in order to get the fertilizers from the Moon Shadow Tribe, as well as continue cooperating with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
Philip was the leader of the forest guards could think this through, but that didnât mean the forest guards did.
For example, when Duolette heard Xu Yiâs warning, she was first surprised before revealing an excited look.
âChairman Xu is overbearing! He isnât like a dreadful human at all!â
Philip knit his brows as he looked at her, âBe careful with your words, Duolette.â
Duolette stuck out her tongue without caring.
Philip shook his head before looking into the distance with a worried gaze.
He didnât know how the Sack Kingdom soldiers would react to Xu Yiâs words.
If the other side had a strong reaction, they might break out into fighting at any time.
The Sack Kingdom soldiers were silent before there was a bunch of cold snorts that came from them.
âHumph! Final warning? So what if youâre the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs chairman Xu? We are the kingdomâs loyal guards, we wonât let people of other countriesâŠ..including elves step on our sacred land! Chairman Xu, I urge you to leave, otherwise, donât blame me for being impolite!â
âImpolite?â Xu Yi revealed a smile and shook his head, âYou mean that you arenât planning on withdrawing?â
âNonsense!â
âGood, Iâll give you one more chance. Iâll count to ten and if you donât move, my warning will take effect.â
The officer gave a cold laugh, looking at Xu Yi without any response.
Philip in the back looked at Xu Yi with a worried look with a bit of doubt in his eyes.
Why did chairman Xu handle this matter in such an aggressive manner? Although this conformed with the elvesâ method of handling things, this was clearly different from how theyâve been trying to get along with humans.
Elder Lisanya had always taught him and the other elves of the Moon Shadow Tribe to learn from humans on how to handle matters, making it easier for them to live with humans. Why did chairman Xu suddenly act like one of those boorish fellows from the humans?
âTenâŠâŠâ
Xu Yi didnât waste words as he began counting.
His voice spread across the fields, causing everyone to look at him.
âNineâŠâŠâ
The officer kept looking at Xu Yi with a cold smile on his face, with disdain in his eyes, clearly not believing that Xu Yi would make a move.
âEightâŠ..â
Philip opened his mouth and wanted to urge Xu Yi to stop, but thinking of what elder Lisanya told him before he came, he could only swallow back his words.
âSevenâŠâŠâ
Duoletteâs eyes were opened wide in excitement as she watched Xu Yi face the two thousand soldiers alone. She thought that Xu Yi really was different from other humans, it was no wonder the elder always praised him in front of all their clansmen.
âSixâŠâŠâ
âFiveâŠâŠâ
âFourâŠâŠâ
âThreeâŠâŠâ
The cold smile on the face of the officer slowly disappeared as he looked at Xu Yi in doubt and a trace of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
Could it be that this fellow really dared to make a move?
âTwoâŠâŠâ
Philip raised his right hand and the hundred Moon Shadow Tribe forest guards raised their bow, preparing to fight.
âOneâŠâŠâ
A sharp look appeared in the eyes of the officer. He raised his right hand and prepared to drop it at any minute.
The Sack Kingdom soldiers tightly gripped the weapons in their hands as they stared right at Xu Yi.
No one noticed that of the two hundred Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards Xu Yi brought, not a single one was preparing to fight.
âTime is up.â Xu Yi spat out these three words and slightly turned to slowly look over the two thousand Sack Kingdom soldiers in front of him. He then said with a nod, âVery good, since you wonât listen to my final warning, you canât blame me.â
After saying this, Xu Yi slowly rose in the air and soon he was floating ten meters above.
The Sack Kingdom officer and soldiers looked up at Xu Yi, feeling confused.
This fellow had finished counting, but the elves and guards that he brought behind him didnât attack. Could it be that he was only verbally threatening them?
Then they noticed that there was a sun that suddenly appeared above them.
