Hearing Cassius' question, Hamid, who was held in the giant claw, trembled all over. He shouted tremblingly:
"You, you can't kill me!"
"why?"
"I am the Emir appointed by the Great Sultan of the City of Brass! If you kill me... you will be making an enemy of the entire Fire Giant Empire!"
The fire giant noble tried to maintain his momentum, but he could not hide the fear in his eyes.
Kaxiu laughed out loud.
"Ha ha……"
"In this situation, can your great sultan really care about a small emir like you?
Cassius spoke with confidence, as if he had completely mastered the situation and was not afraid of offending the Sultan at all.
The reason why he chose to come to the Fire Elemental Plane at this time was that he remembered the famous event in his previous life - the Burning War.
The Great Fire Giant Sultan of the City of Brass is indeed extremely powerful.
He is a being at the pinnacle of legend, close to quasi-divine power. He is allied with the great devil of hell, and has the support of the evil fire elemental lord, the evil fire prince Imix.
Under his brutal tyranny, the scimitar-wielding fire giants plundered many planes, enslaved many races, established a vast kingdom spanning the elemental plane of fire, and even defeated the expeditionary force from Fadlan.
But the glory of the fire giant is not immortal.
The real behind-the-scenes master of the Fire Elemental Plane, the powerful Lord of Fire Kasusi who possesses divine power, will not allow the Evil Fire Prince to completely control the Fire Elemental Plane and covet his throne, so he sends out pure fire to purify all things.
Since 1768 of the Third Age, the kind Lord of Fire Elementals, Prince of Holy Flame, Zaman Rul, launched an uprising and united with many fire dwarves, elemental apostles, and alien races enslaved by the efreet to launch an uprising.
They created the so-called "Holy Flame" organization and started a never-ending battle with the evil fire elemental prince Imix.
The war continues, the flames of revenge and resistance spread across the Elemental Plane of Fire, and the Sultan dares not easily leave the City of Brass.
"Or will he declare war on me for you? Even at the cost of offending a powerful red dragon?"
Upon hearing this, the fire giant noble's face suddenly turned pale, and a trace of despair appeared in his coal-like eyes.
Because what the red dragon said was not wrong.
The reason why a dandy noble like him could become the emir of a city was because the fighting situation on the front line was tense and all the powerful fire giants were transferred to participate in the war.
"Oh, right."
Cassius suddenly thought of something, and an interested expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"I have caught you now. If I release you again - will you fulfill my three wishes?"
As the natural rulers of the elemental planes, the djinns not only possess a strong physique and spellcasting ability, but also gain the power of "prayer" from the essence of the inner planes.
And because of this, the fire giant is also called the "fire monster".
The wish-granting power of a djinn is legendary among mortals, and only the djinn nobility can do this, granting one to three wishes to a non-djinn creature.
But there is an invisible limit to prayer, beyond which prayers will take on a bad form.
Therefore, the Fire Giant was also called the "Wishing Machine" by players in the previous life. Under normal circumstances, it had to be summoned through prayer candles, and there were considerable risks.
"Yes, sir!"
"I, I can also grant you a wish!"
Hamid responded quickly as if grasping at his last straw, fearing that the red dragon would swallow him whole.
"but."
His tone paused.
"Lord Dragon, my power is too weak. Each contract can only grant one wish to other creatures."
"Whether you want gold, silver, treasures, or fine wine and delicious food, I can find them for you."
A fawning smile appeared on the red face of the fire giant noble Zhang. In order to survive, the so-called noble dignity was not worth mentioning.
"Only one? That's terrible."
"And do you think I lack gold, silver, jewels, or fine wine and delicious food?"
The fire giant wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Of course not."
"Lord Dragon, I am sorry for being rude."
The curiosity was fleeting, and Cassius felt a little bored.
A chance to pray may be extremely precious to mortals, a chance to change their fate, but it is just that to a red dragon. The wish spell is usually performed by simulating all the spells in the world.
If the goal cannot be achieved through simulating the spell, then the wish is likely to fail, and it will come at a high price, or even be achieved in a weird way.
"otherwise"
"Try this wish?"
After thinking for a moment, Cassius made a decision - there were so many fire giants here, and he had more than one chance to make a wish.
"Tell me, where will the vengeful demon Jezalslak descend?"
"This"
"Master Dragon, why don't you reconsider it?"
The fire giant noble's smile froze, and hot sweat flowed down his forehead.
Abyss Demon.
A product of extreme chaotic evil.
No one in their right mind would want to have anything to do with this kind of thing.
Furthermore, the demon targeted by this terrifying dragon is likely to be a powerful and crazy demon lord.
However, the moment the red dragon spoke, the power of the laws of the inner plane suddenly emerged, urging him to pray.
And Cassius also looked at him aggressively, with invisible dragon power overflowing, and it seemed that there was no room for negotiation.
If he were facing a mortal, he would have the opportunity to distort their wishes and cheat on the rules.
But the giant dragon was standing by and watching him closely, and his life and death depended on his single thought.
"O Lord of the Flame"
"Let me live."
Hamid prayed silently, with an expression on his face that was uglier than crying. He finally put his hands together and began to pray reluctantly.
"Where do I expect to see Jezalslak descend?"
A powerful force emerges.
The fire giant noble's turban fluttered in the wind, and the golden pendant on his ear swayed slightly.
The miracle I prayed for happened.
Reality was distorted by the wish, and high-level prophetic spells were created by that power and performed in a wonderful way.
"Shh-"
A huge magical image appeared in the air.
The background is rolling mountains, dark black rocks, and in the center of the picture there is an exceptionally majestic peak that is a thousand meters high.
"This is."
"Thierry Hill?"
Cassius recognized at a glance that this was the main peak of the Anstica Mountains, Mount Thierry, which was called the "King of Snow Mountains" by the people in the north.
Then, the blue sky suddenly turned dark.
I saw giant black claws tearing the sky apart, creating an abyss vortex with a diameter of hundreds of meters, and countless strange and hideous demons poured out of it.
They came like a wave, and those ugly bodies even blocked out the sky, making the earth dim.
"Casius——"
"Welcome to the end of fate—"
A deep and hoarse voice sounded, and Cassius was very familiar with that voice. It was the vengeful demon Jezalslak.
"Sizzle. Rustle"
As if it had received an image from some kind of power, the prophetic image began to show chaotic images like mosquitoes, and then was cut off.
"Oh? You are so persistent that you still choose to launch the invasion in the Anzeta Wasteland?"
"It seems that my body is very attractive to him."
"It seems to be a prophecy for two years later. In that case, let me end it all in Anzetta."
Cassius stared at the orange-red sky of the Fire Elemental Plane, with fire flashing in his pale golden pupils. (End of this chapter)
