Chapter 704
Under the Dragon Corps‘ control, the Fields might not dare to actually murder Vincent and Benedict, they could
capture them and destroy their powers. That way, they would not alert the Dragon Corps and could
weaken the Shears at the same time.
“Quit bluffing, Denzel! If war is what you want, we’ll aim to kill today until the very last moment! I’m old, anyway. It’s
a fair deal to trade our lives for the lives of your descendants!” Benedict sneered.
There were only two Overlords among the Fields and they would not be able to restrain both Vincent and Benedict
at the same time.
Though their overall power was incomparable to that of the Fields, Benedict and Vincent could avoid Denzel and

By the time Denzel and Walter managed to kill them, they would have already killed the majority of the younger
generations. Though Fields might not lose all their descendants, they would suffer a great loss.
“Why you!” A dark look appeared on both Walter and Denzel’s faces.
Benedict was equally powerful as either of them and they might not be able to retrain him even if they attacked at
the same time, let alone killing Benedict within a short period of time. As they focused on Benedict, Vincent would
slaughter every member of the Fields‘ second and third generation, and the others would be powerless to stop him.
If the Fields had two other Overlords among them, they would have been able to capture Benedict and Vincent
alive with case, but they did not have that luxury.
The Fields were the ones who started the conflict and if they went to war, they would only suffer in the end
when the Dragon Corp found out.
At that very moment, time froze as the two sides reached a stand–still.
The balance between all families in Springfield City was extremely delicate and leaders like Benedict or Walter
would never declare war or risk the fate of their families without a guarantee that they would benefit
from it.
In the present, they were merely trying to intimidate the other party into giving up so that they would benefit from
the situation. The one who gave up first would lose.
“You win, Benedict! Go ahead. What do you want in exchange for Theodore?” Walter questioned darkly. Theodore
was held hostage and since both Vincent and Benedict did not fear the Fields, Walter had no other options but to
give up.
“Leon and the Southern King’s daughter were both injured and since you were behind in, you ought to compensate
them! How about this? Pay them 65 million and we will let this pass!” Benedict said coldly.

Leon was safe and sound at the moment, so there was no need for Benedict to actually declare war against the
Fields, but he must make them pay as a warning to prevent them from doing the same thing again.
“What?! 65 million?! You might as well ask for everything! I told you that we have nothing to do with the attack.
Don’t get too cocky!” Walter roared.
Though the Fields owned billions of dollars, most of them were owned in the forms of properties and funds,
so 65 million in cash was hardly a small amount for the Fields.
“No more games, Benedict! Pay 65 million by tomorrow noon, and we’ll release Theodore without a scratch
on his body!“
