章 471: Escape

The negotiation between Sherlock and the emissary of Eternal Fire ended in failure.

The proposal of the Werewolf was tempting, but Sherlock didn't have the intention to agree. After three failed attempts to persuade Sherlock, the Werewolf left, dejected.

Eternal Fire didn't give up on resolving the conflict with Eternal Kingdom. In the following days, Eternal Fire sent an emissary daily to present gifts to Sherlock. Even officials from the Merchant Alliance came to mediate their conflict.

Then news of the discovery of the secret forest near Eternal Kingdom spread like wildfire. The Merchant Alliance and other Dungeons at the boundary of the secret forest wanted to have a share of the newfound resource. But the other Dungeons weren't as close to the forest as Eternal Kingdom. The gamers didn't participate in other activities during these few days. They concentrated on building their own Stronghold in the secret forest and attacking Eternal Fire's Stronghold.
