Princess Phyllis's eyes fell on the young man. His eyebrows were like sword eyebrows, his eyes were bright and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, giving people a sense of rebelliousness. Moreover, in the center of his forehead, a pair of golden vertical pupils actually grew.

"Oh, you are the royal guards of the Miriam Empire?" General Gulis asked with a smile, his face full of amiable expressions. However, the three thousand elite soldiers around General Gulis did not think so. When these elite soldiers saw General Gulis, their faces became solemn.

“Yes, Your Excellency.”

"May I ask, your honor is the name?" General Gulis asked.

“In the Lower Alva.”

"It turns out to be Lord Alva. I am Gulis, the captain of the guards of the Imperial Holy City. My duty is to protect the Holy City. Therefore, I hope you can cooperate with us and follow us." General Gulis said sincerely.

General Gulis was very sincere in his attitude, and he did not feel arrogant at all.

He looked at the people in front of him, wearing armor, holding spears, and exuding a bitter murderous intent, which made his heart tremble slightly.

The combat power of these people cannot be underestimated. This time, in order to avoid damaging the books that record metaphysics in the Holy Land, neither he nor the soldiers carried too many firepower weapons.

Once he fought with Alva, General Gulis felt that he had no chance of winning.

Therefore, General Gulis wanted to be as kind as possible, hoping to negotiate with Alva and persuade Alva to surrender.

However, after Alva heard General Gulis' words, a disdainful sneer appeared on his face.

"Haha, General Gulis, we cannot leave here. If you are obsessed with it, don't blame us for taking action!"

General Gulis and Princess Phyllis were shocked when they saw Alva's reaction.

Princess Phyllis hurriedly said, "Only Lord Alva, we have absolutely no intention of offending you. Please be sure to believe our sincerity."

Princess Phelis's words made a hint of indifference appear on Alva's face, and he said lightly: "Princess Phelis, is this your politeness? I can tell you that we will not leave, even if we die, we will die here."

"You!" Princess Phyllis stared at Alva angrily when she heard Alva say this, but she didn't know what to do.

General Gulis quickly opened his mouth to smooth things over and said to Alva: "Since that's the case, I won't force Lord Alva. I don't know how Lord Alva came here? This is the Holy Land. No one knows where the entrance here is, and how powerful the prohibition here is. And Lord Alva is the guardian of the Holy Land, so naturally he is very familiar with this place."

"Let's do this, as long as you are willing to contribute all the books recording fantasy arts, we will leave immediately and give you a lot of gold, silver and jewelry."

When Alva heard this, his face changed drastically. As the guardian of the Holy Land, he was adopted by the old emperor since he was sensible. How could he betray the old emperor?

What's more, this is a holy land, and it is the territory of God. In the holy land, the old emperor's words are rules and they are absolutely not to be disobeyed, and Alva is no exception.

Faced with General Gulis' request, he certainly refused without hesitation.

General Gulis didn't expect Alva to refuse to agree, and was very anxious.

"His Excellency Alva, please be sure to think clearly before answering me. We are really not offending you. I believe that Your Excellency Alva knows better than anyone else about how great these books are to our Miriam civilization." General Gulis continued to persuade.

"General Gulis, I am frank, although I don't know why you must take away my books, I can tell you clearly that I will not hand over those books, and even if we all died in battle, we will not hand over those books to anyone, including you." Alva said in a cold tone.

General Gulis didn't expect Alva to be so decisive, and he was very anxious.

At this moment, General Gulis suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and then he looked at Alva and said.

"In this way, as long as you are willing to give up resistance, I will send people to arrange you in the city and give you glory and wealth, so that you and your descendants will not have to worry about food and drink, nor do you have to stay in this deserted place. What do you think?"

This condition made Alva's heart moved.

Alva had imagined what General Gulis said in his mind, but at that time, they had no strength. All they had done was to think about it, and it was impossible to do it.

However, they have been in the Holy Land for more than 100,000 years and have long been tired of guarding this land, but they cannot escape this land. Therefore, when they hear that they have the opportunity to get rid of this cage, Alva suddenly feels moved.

"Are you saying true?" Alva asked slowly after being silent for a long time.

"Of course it's true." General Gulis said with a smile.

"Okay, I can temporarily agree to your conditions, but you must ensure our safety." Alva said slowly.

"Of course, you can rest assured about all these." General Gulis said.

After hearing Gulis' assurance, Alva relaxed a little.

"Go with me, Lord Alva, we can take you to a quiet place now." As he said, General Gulis made a gesture of inviting.

Alva nodded, then followed General Gulis and walked towards the holy land.

Looking at the backs of Alva and others gradually fading away, General Gulis and Princess Phyllis looked at each other, both of whom saw a hint of joy from each other's eyes.

The reason why the two of them were so polite to Alva just now was actually to get Alva and others to agree to exchange with them. As long as the exchange was successful, they could enter the holy realm and find the old emperor and obtain the secret of the holy realm.

"General Gulis, do you think this Alva is really reliable? I always feel that this Alva is not that kind-hearted. Will he deliberately delay time and let us wait until night, and then sneak attack the Holy City and rob books?" Princess Phyllis said worriedly.

"Hahaha...Don't worry, he dare not do this." General Gulis smiled.

"Oh?" Princess Phyllis was a little confused.

General Gulis pointed to the holy city in the distance.

Princess Phyllis looked at General Gulis and was stunned.

Under her gaze, the majestic holy city was slowly shrinking.

The huge rocks, those houses, those trees, and even those buildings disappeared one by one and eventually turned into a small mountain.

Above this mountain, houses and floors are rapidly disappearing, and the entire mountain is quickly flattened. In the end, only a small city is left, standing in the air, like a house with a roof cut off.

Princess Phyllis's face turned pale, and she murmured: "How could this happen...Is this the effect of those books?"

"Yes, those books, their power is simply too powerful. If you can get them, it will definitely be a huge fortune for us."

As he said that, a greedy smile appeared on the corner of General Gulis's mouth.

These books are really important to them.

General Gulis thought secretly in his heart.

A hint of desire flashed in his eyes, and he longed for these books.

Princess Phyllis' eyes also lit up.

The two of them were full of yearning for the future depicted by General Gulis.

In their eyes, they saw a wonderful scroll.

At this time, General Gulis was thinking secretly in his heart.

"Phylis, what should we do next?" General Gulis asked softly at Princess Phyllis.

Princess Phyllis glanced at Gulis behind him, and Marcus finally arrived, and he brought 20,000 well-trained soldiers.

The appearance of Marcus made Princess Phyllis not in the mood to get entangled with General Gulis again.

As long as Marcus killed General Gulis, she would have the chance to get the powerful books.

At this time, General Gulis also discovered Marcus's existence. His face changed drastically and he quickly ordered his soldiers to protect himself.

Princess Phyllis also took the opportunity to retreat to General Gulis and looked around pretending to be vigilant.

General Marcus glanced at Princess Phyllis, and then looked at General Gulis.

"Hahahaha, dear General Gulis, you have been surrounded by me. I advise you to surrender, so I can leave you a complete body." Marcus said arrogantly.

General Gulis looked around and found that their bodies were surrounded by water and could not be circulated. All his soldiers were surrounded and could not rush out at all.

This made General Gulis very frightened. He looked at the soldiers around him, and his eyes showed a strong fear.

"No, this is impossible. How could I lose to you? This time, I have completely won the mission. There are many masters in my team, and you can't do anything to me at all." General Gulis had a crazy expression on his face, and he looked a little hysterical.

Princess Phyllis stood beside General Gulis, looking at General Gulis's appearance, and felt very disappointed.

This General Gulis was simply a waste, a complete coward.

"Hmph! Since that's the case, then you're waiting to die." General Marcus snorted coldly, then waved his hand and said to the black knights around him: "You come here to me, kill all these traitors first, and then take their heads back to receive a reward."

"As for the order." Everyone responded in unison, and then rushed towards Princess Phelis and General Gulis respectively.

Seeing the people rushing up, Princess Phyllis and General Gulis were immediately panicked, and they kept dodging backwards.

However, General Gulis was a general after all, and he still had some skills.

General Gulis waved the scimitar in his hand, blocking the oncoming enemy.

However, General Gulis could not block the opponent's attack in every move. After he avoided the enemy's attack, another wave of people attacked him. These people were elite soldiers, and their cooperation was quite tacit.

This made General Gulis frown tightly. He knew that it would be difficult for him to leave here alive today, because there were no reinforcements around him and no helper around him.

Princess Phyllis sneered from a distance and looked at all this, with a look of mockery in her eyes.

These soldiers are not her opponents, but she is not willing to take action now.

Because Princess Phyllis can't wait to hope that General Gulis will die here soon, and then they will have the chance to get those books.

Although Princess Phyllis did not know the value of those books, the power emitted from those books showed that those books were absolutely extraordinary. Those books were so precious to her. As long as she obtained those books, her cultivation speed would definitely be greatly improved.

Thinking of this, Princess Phyllis was even more looking forward to it.

Seeing that Princess Phyllis ignored her, General Gulis couldn't help but feel hatred in his heart, and secretly decided that if he could not escape today, he would definitely kill this woman and take her life away.

"You all die for me, don't worry about me, rush for me!" General Gulis roared wildly, his eyes turned blood-red, as if they were a wild beast.

He waved the scimitar in his hand frantically and slashed at his enemies.

This scene shocked everyone around them. They did not expect that General Gulis would have the courage to resist at the moment of death.

This kind of courage is rare.
