The Scarlet Crusade's Envoy

As he spoke, Amalarui raised one hand, and flames condensed into a fireball in his palm. He then tossed the fireball into the air like a ball, then a second, then a third, juggling it back and forth like a juggler.

Alamarui (Resurrected Flame Soul): "I must say, being an elemental being is quite an interesting experience."

Xiao Yu thought to himself that this person adapted quite quickly and had a good mental fortitude, which was even better.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Then let's begin the transmutation ritual of the Chaos Elemental! As an expert in this field, tell me, what is needed for me to become Chaos Elemental?"

Amalarui reabsorbed the fireball's flames into his body, then carefully examined Azathoth. Once the topic turned to his job, he immediately displayed his professionalism.

Alamarui (Resurrected Flame Soul): "First, I need some manpower to clear the area and rearrange the magic circle. These assistants must have some spellcasting ability."

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "That's no problem. I'll have my siren priests and water nymph priests help. I'll also give you a hundred elemental creatures to command. That should be enough, right?"

Alamarui (Resurrected Flame Soul): "Secondly, I need a batch of elemental materials to repair the magic circle."

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "That's no problem either. I have plenty of materials. Just give me a list, and I'll prepare them for you."

Alamarui (Resurrected Flame Soul): "Thirdly, I need four sufficiently powerful spellcasters to run this magic circle. To balance the elemental forces within you, the four elemental forces of wind, water, and earth must be injected into your body to balance your power. Thanks to you, I can now inject the pure elemental fire power into you, but I still need three more people to assist me using the elemental forces of ice, wind, and earth."

Leah Bloodmoon (High Elementalist): "I can handle the power of the wind. As a High Elementalist, my lightning magic is quite effective."

Estero (Lich): "I can use the power of the earth. Earth magic and Undead have some similarities, so I have some knowledge of earth magic."

Alamarui (Resurrected Flame Soul): "Then we're still missing a powerful spellcaster skilled in ice magic. Does Lord Azathoth have any suitable candidates?"

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "A powerful spellcaster skilled in ice magic? I happen to know one like that."

Xiao Yu was naturally referring to Esmehalda. It had been a long time since the two had last seen each other. Ever since Azathoth advanced to the Water Elemental Lord, Esmehalda's power had been unable to summon his complete form, not to mention that he had now arrived in the Prime Material Plane, and the Summoning Creatures Channel was no longer usable.

However, he had contacted Esmehalda through his address book, so he figured she would definitely agree to help with such a small favor. Sure enough, Xiao Yu sent a message and received a reply shortly afterward.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "The ice spellcaster will arrive tomorrow, so is there anything else you need?"

Amalarui (Resurrected Flame Soul): "That's all. All that's left is time. I need three days to rearrange the magic circle. After three days, the Chaos Elemental Transmutation Ritual can begin. During this time, you must ensure the safety of this tower. Apart from that, you are free to move around as you please, but don't stray too far. Once the Power of Annihilation within you reaches a certain level, it will cause an explosion. For an elemental being as powerful as you, an explosion would be truly earth-shattering."

Xiao Yu nodded, but he didn't plan to leave. Although the Annihilation state was very powerful, it wouldn't be a bad idea to go out and kill a few bosses. However, he was unfamiliar with the Eastern Plaguelands, so he decided to leave. Besides, the refinement of Chaos Elemental was about to begin, so it was better to stay here and avoid any unnecessary trouble.

Thinking that Xiao Yu had Agnes lead a group of subordinates to help Amalarui rearrange the magic circle, he went downstairs and returned to the valley outside the Tower of Amalarui.

He ordered his men to secure the entrance to the valley and then set up camp there.

The first day passed peacefully. Although some reckless adventurers tried to explore the area, they were all killed before they even reached the entrance to the valley. Then, some Undead creatures and Scarlet Crusade scouts came to investigate. Those who were far away were allowed to leave, while those who were close were all killed. Xiao Yu originally thought that the next three days would pass peacefully like this. However, things didn't go as planned. Before nightfall on the second day, the Big Water Cunt, who was guarding the entrance to the valley, sent someone to inform Xiao Yu that the Scarlet Crusade's messengers had arrived.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Emissaries of the Scarlet Crusade? They've come for me?"

Big Water Cunt (the corrupted Water Elemental elder): "That's right, they said they had something important to discuss with you. Originally, I planned to kill them all as you instructed, but the girl leading the group said she was a player and had a big business deal to discuss with you, so I..."

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "No need for explanations, let them in."

But in my heart I thought, (It seems that Scarlet Glory knows my identity now. I wonder what they want from me?)

A group of five knights slowly rode in from the entrance of the valley, led by a valiant female Warrior in red armor.

Linia Abbendis (Scarlet Crusade Commander), 3-Skull-level BOSS template, Level 60, 5.47 million HP.

Xiao Yu was taken aback. He had originally thought that the other party would send an ordinary person to contact him, but he did not expect that it would be their president who came.

Should I say she's brave or just thick-skinned?

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Wow! Let's see, a Paladin, daring to come here alone. I must say, you've earned my respect. Aren't you afraid of dying here?"

Xiao Yu immediately adopted the attitude of an NPC (player versus player), but the other party didn't fall for it.

Linia Abbendis (Commander of the Scarlet Crusade): "Greetings, Lord Azathoth. I am the guild leader of the Scarlet Glory, and I have come here with goodwill and an opportunity for cooperation."

Cooperation? Xiao Yu thought to himself, what is there for us to cooperate on?

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Oh, tell me, how exactly do you plan to do it?"

Linia Abbendis (Scarlet Crusade Commander): "I need your help to take down our boss."
