Without all his companions, Ganatica was undoubtedly extremely anxious. He had no food assistance. The poor who joined the Mutual Aid Association were still hungry. Although Pandora had not spent all the gold coins he received from Punk,... even if there was more money, the nobles would not sell out the few foods.

Therefore, the situation of the Mutual Aid Association is simply overwhelming, but in fact, the nobles of the Scott Empire were also very anxious at this time, and even the mood of the major nobles was no longer described as anxiety - they were almost crazy.

The reason why the great nobles were anxious was definitely not the fact that a large number of poor people were about to starve to death. There was only one thing they were anxious and even afraid of, that was... a piece of gray crystal disappeared!

In Scott's palace, five gorgeously dressed nobles sat together, while the nominal "emperor" of this country sat blankly on his throne. The entire palace seemed quiet under the cover of night, and the paintings in the gorgeous hall seemed to have become dumb because of this silence......

"What's wrong... say it quickly! We... what should we do?"

The first one to make a sound was of course the emperor who was on the throne, but at this time the "Emperor Majesty" had long lost his usual majesty and light wind. Only he could hear his voice trembling violently, and the fear in it echoed continuously in the empty hall.

Unfortunately, silence was not broken by the emperor's speech. The five great nobles present still lowered their heads and said nothing. Among these great nobles, there are formal professionals who have lived for hundreds of years, but at this moment, they still don't know what to answer.

Seeing this scene, the emperor with no god-eyed eyes couldn't help but collapsed on the throne. Only murmuring like silences remained in his mouth. Fear made the nominal supreme ruler of the Scott Kingdom's voice hoarse:

"It's over... Haha... it's over! Before leaving, the "Furious Fire Tearer" specifically explained that there must be no mistakes in the gray crystal, but... but what should I do now? A total of ten gray crystals were actually lost. In a few years, the "Furious Fire Tearer" will come back. At that time, we will all be finished. The anger of the red dragon will burn us to ashes."...

The emperor's words were full of despair, and the facts he told were indeed worthy of despair for anyone in the Scott Kingdom. Everyone knows that Amoda-Yan Claw is an unreasonable, cruel and cruel evil dragon. Usually, this "fire-melting rifter" would slaughter the city for no reason for fun. Now... the emperor and a group of nobles really couldn't imagine what the angry red dragon would do.

Moreover, facing an evil dragon, every nobleman deeply understood that their proud words and words were all a bunch of jokes. How should they argue about Amoda-Yan Claw? He said that he had tried his best to protect, but the loss of the gray crystal was force majeure?

Or is it that you don’t have the ability to protect such a precious legendary creature, and it is a tough thing to require the gray crystal to be placed in a densely populated aristocratic manor?

Unfortunately, the "fire-melting rifter" never knows what "reasonable" means, and it is even more impossible to think about the excuse of a group of "ants". It will only crush everything that makes it unhappy with absolute power!

"I knew, I knew! Since the crazy dragon of the "Flame Tearer" took out those few pieces of crystals, and then asked for "it must be placed in densely populated areas", "it cannot be allowed to get close to any spellcaster or master-level powerhouses", and finally said, "you have to leave the Scott Kingdom", "you cannot accept any contact", "you can come back in five years"...... It's a ghost! Those crystals obviously have big problems, and now there is a great famine. How can you not attract others to investigate?"

A younger nobleman could not bear such a depressed atmosphere. He suddenly stood up and complained loudly about the source of everything, complaining about the actions of Amoda-Yan Claw.

Anyway, since "the gray crystal disappeared and Amoda still did not show up", the nobles present knew that the "five-year retreat" mentioned by the red dragon is a real situation. Since the legendary red dragon cannot maintain surveillance of this country anytime and anywhere, these nobles are particularly rude in complaining about Amoda.

Especially when the gray crystal is lost and Amoda is about to return, the nobles on the verge of collapse are almost cursing with their mentality of giving up!

However... no matter how terrible the fact is coming, no one will want to die, especially these nobles who live in luxury. They have not yet enjoyed the wonderful life they have obtained from exploiting the poor. Even if they complain that they are "dead and are completely finished", in fact, any nobles, including the emperor, will never want to die, otherwise they will not gather here for discussion.

After the complaints and the abuse ended, the great nobles took advantage of the absence of the "fire-melting rifter" and needed to express a little resentment and fear, the real discussion on "survival" finally began...

The first person to stand up and speak was an old nobleman with a firm face. He did not complain like the young nobleman, but slowly glanced at everyone, and then said seriously in a calm and stable tone:

"My friends, there is no doubt... the continuation of our respective families and even the survival of the Scott Kingdom have reached a critical point, because just one day ago, the "Fire Tearer" told me to protect it before leaving. A piece of the hidden gray crystal was lost. We all know the cruelty and tyranny of the evil legendary red dragon. If nothing unexpected happens... I think everyone sitting here can predict their own destiny."

The old nobles told the facts in a slow voice. Of course, the sad facts are still sad no matter what they say, but... when the old nobles told them, this sadness was actually a bit "tragic".

Sad things often make people confused, but "tragic" things can often calm everyone's hearts.

What the old nobles now need is obviously this "tragic" effect. When they saw that other nobles present, including the depressed emperor, finally pulled out their thoughts from despair and fear, the old man with turbid eyes but a firm tone continued to talk about the "countermeasures" he thought about.

"We are nobles with noble blood! We cannot be as chaotic as those foolish people. No matter what difficulties we face, what we should do now is not to complain about ourselves here, but…..."
