Chapter Five Hundred Ninety-One: Icefield
The Beast King looked at Zhao Hai and suddenly said, "Sir, do you know that you are gambling? If you gamble wrong, your life will be lost!"
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, at this point, is it possible not to gamble? Who knows when the divine race might come and kill us all? If we can't gather three divine artifacts by then, we will all become slaves to the divine race, even if we don't die. I don't want to be a slave."
The Beast King understood that Zhao Hai wasn't speaking the truth. It was indeed possible that the divine race would attack, but he didn't know when. Zhao Hai had no need to take such a risk; he was doing it for the orc tribe and for the entire Ark Continent.
The Beast King stood up and looked at Zhao Hai, saying, "Sir's ambition is broader than the grasslands. Please allow me to bow to you." After saying that, he performed a bow of respect to Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you are too polite. There's no need for that. If Your Majesty agrees, I will prepare for the next two days and set out for the Extreme North Icefield."
The Beast King nodded and said, "Good. Please be careful. If you can really bring back the Beast God Spear from the Extreme North Icefield, I can promise you that I will definitely make you a prince of the orc tribe. Even if someone else becomes the Beast King in the future, they will still respect you as a prince."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty. Please arrange a warehouse for me. This time I brought some tools from the dwarf clan."
The Beast King nodded and called in a guard to make arrangements. Zhao Hai saluted the Beast King and then followed the guard.
After delivering the tools to the Beast King, Zhao Hai returned to the Beast King's office with the guard. The Beast King then treated Zhao Hai to a meal before letting him leave.
This time, Zhao Hai had achieved his goal. He believed that Billy had already informed the Beast King in the letter about the seriousness of the matter. With the Beast King's abilities, he would certainly make proper arrangements.
After returning to the Flower Shop, Zhao Hai prepared to head to the Extreme North Icefield. Now that he had everything he needed in the space, he didn't need to prepare for anything. So, after saying goodbye to Atai, Zhao Hai went back to the space to rest.
Zhao Hai stayed in Beast God City for only two days before leaving. During this time, the Beast King also sent secret orders to the Giant Tiger Tribe, the White Bear Tribe, and the Eagle Tribe stationed near the Extreme North Icefield, instructing them to treat Zhao Hai well when they saw him. He also informed them that Zhao Hai was going to the Extreme North Icefield for a specific purpose.
However, the Beast King did not disclose that Zhao Hai was going to the Extreme North Icefield to retrieve the Beast God Spear to deal with the divine race; this information had to be kept secret. He only told them that Zhao Hai was entrusted by him to find the Beast God Spear.
The Beast King's message was sent two days earlier than Zhao Hai's departure. So when Zhao Hai arrived at Eagle King Mountain, the Eagle King received him very warmly.
Although their cooperation with Zhao Hai had just begun, they had already gained considerable benefits. Plus, since Zhao Hai was going to the Extreme North Icefield to find the Beast God Spear, the Eagle King was even more enthusiastic, mixed with a hint of respect.
Orcs respect heroes. Regardless of whether Zhao Hai would succeed in his trip to the Extreme North Icefield, just having the courage to undertake such a task was enough to be called a hero.
Zhao Hai did not stay long at Eagle King Mountain; he only spent one day there. He specifically instructed the Eagle King that no matter the outcome of this trip, his business with the orc tribe regarding milk would not be affected. It would remain the same as before, and the Eagle King need not worry.
