"You are the player who killed General Muril in the frontline?" Piluf immediately connected the dots when Tang Shaoyang admitted his identity as a player. There was news that Varil Fortress was down because the players had a dispute against General Muril, ending up killing the soldiers and also General Muril. He was on his way to the Varil Fortress to investigate the situation.

"General Muril?" Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brows and looked confused for a moment. The name sounded familiar but he forgot who that person was.

Rosalie canceled her transformation skill. The figure made of fire was her. The bloodline transformation turned her body into fire, "He is the general we met at the frontline, remember? The topless guy." She reminded him who General Muril was.

General Muril was not so important, and the guy barely left an impression on him. Tang Shaoyang deemed the guy was not important, and that was why he did not bother to remember the guy. He just remembered the guy as a general killed by The Defiance to frame him.

"Ah, that poor man?" Tang Shaoyang met with Piluf's eyes, shaking his head, "Unfortunately it was not us who killed him. Do you think it's possible for your soldiers to bring his body back against us?"

Piluf fell in his thoughts for a moment, pondering the question. The three were strong enough to face him, The Legend Rank, 'Is it possible for an Ancient Rank to escape from these three players?'

"But…" He was about to voice his doubt, but then his eyes widened as he came to a realization. It was not the players who killed General Muril, but The Defiance. The Defiance tried to use The Union to take the players.

"It seems you understand what happened. But what's in the past will remain in the past. We need to talk about your current situation," Tang Shaoyang led the conversation, "Bring them all, Lu An."

Lu An looked disappointed that they did not fight the Legend Rank, but he followed the order. He disappeared into the shadows and returned with five people in his hand. One of them was the commander, and the other four were the Ancient Rank. Lu An did not participate in the frontal attack because he had been busy, looking for the high-rank officer in this fortress.

"I will stop the attack and return them alive to your hands in exchange for your thirty strongest bloodlines," Tang Shaoyang started the real talk and also the real purpose for Lu An to look for the high rank officers. He wanted to exchange them for more bloodlines. That was what he planned when he agreed to the Demon King's offer.

"Are you aiming for The Union's resources with such a dirty trick?" Piluf was angry when he knew what the players tried to achieve by attacking this fortress. The players chose the shortcut to get the resources they wanted instead of trying to enlist as the mercenary or became the member of the Player Guild.

"You can think of me however you want," Tang Shaoyang shrugged, "Give me your reply, do you want to exchange this fortress and also your people's lives for the bloodline or not?"

"What if I refuse the exchange?" Piluf did not want to accept the offer. He did not want to give the players with anything, whether it was a bloodline or even a coin.

"Then you can say goodbye to The Union. I don't mind killing you and taking down three more fortresses. That should be enough to destroy The Union." That was half-truth and half-lie. He was telling the truth about taking down more fortresses, but he would not kill Piluf. His people still needed the three factions to climb up to the thirteenth floor.

Piluf did not want to give what these players wanted, but he did not have a choice. If this fortress and another three fortresses fell, that would be the end for The Union. The demon and the beastmen would swarm them if the Artamao Kingdom and the Caracius Kingdom knew that The Union's four fortresses fell.

"Ten. I can concede ten bloodlines for them and this fortress."

Tang Shaoyang shook his head, "I have to refuse if that's the case. I guess these people's lives don't have that much value for The Union."

He took out Mzed, walking next to the commander as he raised the battle-ax. He was about to swing the battle-ax down to the commander's neck.

"Stop! Let's talk it out. Thirteen…. No, fifteen! The Union will give you fifteen bloodlines in exchange for their lives and also to stop your attack against The Union," Piluf raised his voice and tried to stop the players to execute his people.

"Eighteen bloodlines! No less than that, or the deal is off!"

"Alright, eighteen. We will give you eighteen bloodlines, but you have to take an oath that you will not attack The Union's territory again. That's the only condition for you!" Piluf stated the condition. He had to take a precaution, in case the players repeated the same thing to extort more things from The Union.

"You have the deal, and I don't mind taking the oath." Tang Shaoyang showed his teeth, smiling.

Piluf did not have the items in him, so Tang Shaoyang had to wait for the temple to deliver the items. Of course, they also needed the priest from the temple for the oath to have a consequence.

Piluf left the fortress on his own to retrieve the bloodline and also to bring the priest. It took the Legend Rank Knight two hours to return to the fortress with the item and the priest. Tang Shaoyang stored the bloodlines in his inventory and the smile never left his face.

"Happy doing business with you, Sir Piluf," Tang Shaoyang stood up from his chair, "Then we will leave. We have another business to take care of."

Just like that, Tang Shaoyang left the wrecked fortress with more loot in his inventory, "Our next target is the Caracius Kingdom. We will use the same strategy. Lu An will capture the high-ranking officers while we will destroy the fortress."

"It's surprisingly longer for you to take down one fortress," The Demon King commented as the players returned. He could not hear what the players talked about with Piluf, but he saw them having a conversation. He could not say anything because Piluf was not part of the deal, after all.

"It does not matter as long as I fulfill my part, no?" Tang Shaoyang shrugged, "Stop with the nonsense, lead us to the Caracius Kingdom."
