The woods outside the gates on the west side of the city of Phochers.

Thorin left the city of Phochers and came here following a strange aura she had sensed. Soreen was now almost certain that Gofedor had indeed been captured, because the strange aura she had sensed along the way was mixed with Gofedor's breath, and she guessed that Gofedor's captors had deliberately left it behind in order to lure her here.

But when he tracked down a clearing deep in the woods, Thorin was surprised to find that his breath had suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and there was not even a figure in the clearing in front of him.

This made Thorin feel that something was wrong, and she began to think that she had probably fallen into a trap as she was.

Thorin drew the sword from his waist and looked around warily, beware of a possible enemy attack from the shadows. She didn't know if she was overthinking, but the uneasiness never went away.

After standing in place and vigilant for a minute, Solene suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him, so he immediately turned on his fighting spirit and turned around and slashed out a sword qi.

Looking at the rapidly approaching sword qi, Daisey suddenly pulled out the saber at his waist and slashed it with a single sword.

After seeing Daisey's appearance clearly, Thorin frowned and asked, "Are you the Nether?"

Thorin immediately guessed that Daiseia was a Netherworld because she saw Daiusei's golden eyes, which symbolized Nether blood, and that Talia had previously described the racial characteristics of the Netherworld.

Daisey withdrew his saber back into the scabbard, slowly walked to a position about seven meters away from Sorin, stopped, showed a soft smile on his face, and gracefully gave Thorin a gentlemanly salute, and said, "Below, the supreme commander of the Netherworld, Daisekapunhades, I have heard that the lord of Phorcher City, Lady Soreen Nettel, is known as the Sword Emperor in the mouth of the humans of the Southern Continent, and she is powerful, so she has always wanted to see her true face. It's a great honor to meet you today."

Faced with such a gentlemanly attitude as Daisey, Sorine was stunned, and didn't know how to respond for a while.

Talya's previous description made Soreen feel that the Netherworld was as evil as the demons, but seeing Daisey, who was a Netherworld, gave Sorin's impression that it was not what Talia described.

Soreen felt that Daiser might just be pretending to be her, but she couldn't feel any evil aura from Daisey's body, and she could even feel a righteous aura from Daius.

But even so, Thorin was already wary of Daius, and she clenched the sword in her hand, pointed it at Daius, and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"If you're willing to talk, maybe we can save us from an unnecessary fight, I don't know what to do?" Daisey replied in a very calm tone.

Daisey gave Sorine a good impression, at least Daiusse's appearance had an approachable feeling, to put it bluntly, handsome and personable.

Hearing Daisey say this, Thorin thought for a moment, and finally slowly lowered the sword in his hand. But Sorin didn't let up at Daiussey's words, and if Daisey showed any signs of attacking, Sorine would definitely have time to raise his sword to resist.

Seeing that the hostility in Sorin's eyes had lessened somewhat, Daisey smiled.

"Presumably you came here to save your companions, so I can tell you very clearly that the girl named Gophidor has now been taken back to the Hell, where the demons live, by order of Lord Artevans."

"Of course, Gofidor is in good condition right now, and Lord Artvis has specifically ordered his men not to cause any harm to Gofidor in any way. We just want to negotiate a deal with you, and if you are willing to return to Phothes, and break off your alliance with the Divine Heirs, then Gofidor will return to you intact."

With that, Daiser bowed slightly to Thorin politely.

It may not be true of Dieus's personality and the way he has always behaved, but Dieusse himself knows exactly what he is doing.

Capturing the other person's person and using it to threaten them to leave the game was a bit despicable to him, but he knew it was a good idea. And after all, Gofidor was a human, not a Nether, and if he were a Nether, Daiser would never do that.

It is never possible for different races to understand each other, which is one of the reasons why the struggle between races is the most frequent in this world. It's impossible for anyone to think from the perspective of a different race, not even the upright Daisey.

Hearing Daisey say this, Sorin's face darkened.

"Did you mean what Artevans meant?" Thorin asked, looking directly at Daiser with an incomparably sharp gaze.

"This is indeed what Lord Artevans meant, he said, as long as you can return to Phothess City and break off the alliance with the Divine Heirs, then he will send Gophidor back to Phothesus City intact." Daiser nodded and responded.

Thorin frowned, lost in thought, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Now in front of Sorin is a multiple-choice question. Either she would save the benefits of joining forces with the Divine Heirs and defeat Artefans at the cost of Goddord's life, but if she did, she might never see Godfishor. The other option is to give up the benefits of joining forces with the Divine Heirs in exchange for Gofidor.

If she were to put herself in Thorin's shoes, she would have chosen the latter, but in reality, neither option would guarantee Gofedor's safety. Even if he chooses the latter, Artevans may backtrack.

Daiser gave Thorin a feeling of trustworthiness, but it didn't work, as Gofidor was now in the hands of Artfans, not Daisey. Based on Soreen's knowledge of Artefans, it is even possible for Artevans to deceive Daius, who is an ally, and make Daiusai convey the fake trading terms to Soreen and let Sorine take the bait.

In other words, Thorin could choose to trust Daisey, but she certainly didn't trust Artevans.

After thinking for a long time, Thorin finally spoke, "I want to see Gofeldor first."

But Daisey shook his head helplessly, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm only responsible for passing the word, Gofedor is estimated to have reached the Dark Hell by now, and Lord Artevans should be fighting Talia right now, so I can't do anything about it."

In fact, Soreen could guess that Artevans might backtrack, and Daisey couldn't think of it. As for what kind of existence Artevans is, Daiusse sees it very thoroughly, but he can't say it clearly, after all, his younger brother Monasse seems to attach great importance to this alliance.

Hearing Daisey say this, Thorin took a deep breath, and then the fighting spirit on her body became more and more raging, "Since this is the case, there is no room for negotiation. I'm going to use force to take back Godfield!"

With that, Thorin immediately rushed in front of Daisey and slashed at Daisei's neck with a sharp swing of his sword.

In the face of Soreen's sudden and rapid attack, anyone with almost strength could be killed with a single blow, but Daiser reacted and immediately drew his sword to block the blow.

"It seems that the negotiations have broken down." Daisey said helplessly, and suddenly forced Thorin back, and then used great speed to make a forward slash.

Thorin steadied herself, blocked Daisey's blow, and then pulled away from Daisey.

After just one move, Soreen was able to roughly judge Daise's strength, and she knew that if she wanted to defeat Daisey, she would have to show her real skills.

"Rather than let you hold the high ground of negotiations, I should take the initiative, I can trust you, but I can't trust Artfans!"

With that, Thorin withdrew the sword from her hand into its scabbard and summoned the Punishment of Destruction.

The exterminator fell from the sky and slammed into the ground, erupting into a powerful shockwave.

Daisey couldn't help but frown when he felt the astonishing energy fluctuations coming from the extermination. Just a giant sword had already made him feel so much pressure, and it was hard for him to imagine how strong Sorin's strength really was.

Daisey didn't dare to slack off, and immediately turned it on, restricting Soreen to the realm.

In the past, it was opened to end the lives of the enemy, but this time, Daisey just wanted to hold off Sorine as much as possible. If Daiser hadn't miscalculated, Artevans and Monasse should have started a battle with Talia by now, and his mission was to keep Thorin from joining the fight.

Rodat's intervention disrupted Atfans' plan, Artvis didn't know what Tyat wanted to do, and Rodat didn't give Atvance any information, which made Atfans feel a little headache, so he had to temporarily reschedule.

Daiser didn't know how long he could hold off Sorin, but judging from the body in front of him and the powerful aura he felt from the extermination, Daiser concluded that Sorin's strength was definitely above him.

Daisey had never tried to be so nervous after opening, after all, none of his previous opponents had been able to put him under enough pressure just by momentum like Sorin.

Thorin pulled the exterminator out of the ground with all his might, pointing it at Daisey. She didn't care at all about the eight void swords that suddenly appeared around her and Daise, so she rushed towards Daiser again, swinging the extermination in her hand.

Seeing this, Daisey immediately raised his sword and fought with Thorin.

However, he soon found that even with the blessings, he still felt very difficult in the face of such a fierce attack by Sorin. This is not the pressure that Soreen exuded when she opened the fighting spirit, but the crushing of pure hard power.

(It won't work like this...... ）

Daiser knew that he couldn't be passive all the time, so he wanted to use his speed to unleash his sword moves on Thorin. However, Daiser immediately realized that he was too naïve.

Daisey didn't expect that Soreen would be able to swing so quickly with such a heavy greatsword.

"Explode...... Thorin let out a low groan, instantly filling the entire fighting spirit, and then slammed the extermination into the ground, detonating all the fighting spirits.

Daisey had nowhere to hide, and was directly stunned by the exploding fighting spirit, and then lifted. It was the first time that Daisey had lost in the opening situation, and even lasted less than a minute.

Thorin looked at Daisey, who had fallen to the ground, and immediately turned and walked towards the west, where the most important thing for her was Gofedor's safety.

However, as soon as she turned around, she suddenly felt her body go limp, and she fell to the ground.

"No, I can't ......" Soreen struggled to stand up, but helplessly, her body became heavier and heavier, and she finally closed her eyes.

In the dark corner, Roart stared at what was happening in the clearing, and whispered to himself, "Brother Artfans, I only help you, and you will take care of the rest......."
