Maximus Powers paused in tone, and a faint smile seemed to sweep across his face.
After that, his tone relaxed, and he soon spoke up.
“What else could the purpose be? It’s all the same old talk, Logan, you are indeed a fine lad, I’ll give you another chance to join the Demon Race, and it’s with sincerity that I hope you will.”
Logan narrowed his eyes slightly, somewhat surprised by this.
He never expected that after he refused last time, they would still seek him out again, and even propose the same offer.
“I just turned you down before, don’t you find that aggravating?”
Ordinarily, most people might not do such a thing, any person with pride wouldn’t bow their head over and over again.
But Maximus Powers was different.
He spread his hands in an indifferent manner, his eyes carrying a roguish charm.
“Haha, I’m not one of those old relics, nor am I the kind that looks down on everything because of my status and Cultivation Level, and refuses to lower my dignity. You see, only the benefits in hand are the real benefits. What good does it do to lose one’s temper or be haughty with nothing substantial in hand? It’s futile. Logan, I truly see potential in you, so even if it means lowering my status, I wish to extend an invitation to you again.”
The corner of Logan’s mouth twitched, not showing much of a reaction to the other party’s trust.
“So, should I be grateful to you? Come on, enough with the nonsense. What is your true purpose?”
“Logan, I’m giving you one more chance. Agree to join our Demon Race. If you’re not satisfied with the previous terms, I can change them.”
“Is that so? I have quite an appetite; I might need more benefits.”
The people listening to the two negotiate had mixed feelings.
While the two were negotiating, their teammates were also whispering among themselves.
“The captain is indeed competent, even the Demon Race sees him in a different light.”
“Is the Demon Race trying to recruit our captain? What do you think he will choose?”
“I’m not sure, but if it were me, I probably couldn’t refuse the Demon Race’s temptations. Those terms are too enticing to ignore!”
“No, I believe in the captain, he will definitely not side with the Demon Race.”
Just when everyone was feeling uncertain, Sheron Perri stood up.
He had suffered minor external injuries from the Demon Race’s attack earlier and was limping, but his eyes still shone brightly, as if an undying fire burned within them.
“No matter what everyone else says, I will always believe in the captain.”
The morale was good at the moment, but Logan’s words led to a momentary collapse of the Elite Soldiers’ convictions.
“What? What does the captain mean by that? Is he really going to join the Demon Race?”
“Captain, has the captain fallen too? How can he ask the Demon Race for benefits? Anyway, anyway, I will absolutely not allow it, and I will definitely not agree to it. I will never join the Demon Race!”
The most agitated Elite Soldier’s parents had died at the hands of the Demon Race, so a big reason he became a soldier was to seek revenge for his parents.
He also admired Logan greatly.
But hearing Logan’s words and seeing such actions shocked him greatly.

At this moment, he did not know how to face such a captain.
Sheron Perri heard this, his pupils also quivered fiercely, seemingly in disbelief.
Even in such a circumstance, he clenched his fists and word by word defended Logan.
“No, no matter the reason, I believe the captain will never betray the Human Race, he will certainly not defect to the Demon Race.”
But many did not believe these words, and they even accused Sheron Perri.
“Sheron Perri, have you been hexed by the captain? Didn’t you hear that the captain is already demanding benefits from the other side? Why do you still think the captain won’t join them when the facts are already right before your eyes?”
“Yeah, the captain has already turned his cloak on the battlefield. We now have to think of a way to maintain the honor of the Human Race and not let these people step into our territory. Sheron Perri, you are one of the strongest among us, please don’t turn on the captain because of this!”
The Elite Soldiers were very disappointed and disheartened, but they still had to rally themselves.
Regardless of whether they faced the Demon Race or their captain, they had to resist with their flesh and blood.
But Sheron Perri remained silent, just staring blankly at Logan.
“Captain, have you really turned your back at the last minute? Have you really defected to the Demon Race?”
Memories of the past surged in his mind, and Sheron Perri couldn’t, and didn’t want to, believe it.
So, he bit down hard on his back teeth, clenched his fists, still displaying the same attitude.
“No, I don’t believe it. I can’t believe that the captain is that kind of person.”
Seeing how stubborn he was, the others could do nothing but shake their heads and stay silent.
At that time, Maximus Powers thought Logan was finally wavering when he heard his words.
As for the benefits mentioned by Logan, Maximus Powers certainly would not skimp.
He spoke confidently, throwing out a bunch of benefits he thought were quite good.
“How about it, I haven’t mistreated you, have I? As long as you’re willing to join the Demon Race, be it Spirit Stones, cultivation level, or even guidance to the Upper World, Logan, you already bear the Inheritance of Blood Nineteen. Blood Nineteen was neither completely righteous nor evil, and can’t be categorized under any Sect. Given that, as his heir, why be so inflexible? ”
“No matter the race, no matter the Sect, strength is always the most important. By joining the Demon Race, you can attain the highest power and fully honor the Throne you’ve inherited from Blood Nineteen. So, Logan, are you interested in creating a new world?”
But no matter how much the person before him urged, and no matter what benefits he mentioned.
Logan’s facial expression remained indifferent, as if he wasn’t very interested.
But he didn’t deny it either, occasionally nodding to signal him to continue speaking.
Maximus Powers:…
He always felt he was being led on a wild goose chase, but he couldn’t find any evidence.
Even after speaking for a while and presenting numerous benefits, the person in front of him still did not show the slightest interest.
Maximus Powers twitched his mouth, growing quite displeased with this.
Had he, after the fact, realized something?
His face suddenly darkened.
“It seems you have no intention of negotiating with me at all, Logan. Have you been playing me this whole time, just stalling for time, is that it?”
At that moment, Maximus Powers suddenly understood the other’s intentions.
And Logan, upon hearing this, paused slightly, appearing somewhat surprised.
Not because of the words spoken, but because he had realized this point.
The other’s expression once again confirmed Maximus Powers’ suspicions, which made him very angry.
As an elite of the Saint King Level, he had never encountered someone like this.
“Fine, Logan, you’re asking for it. It seems like I’ll have to subdue you by force. People like you, either I kill you or you work for me; I will not let you grow stronger!”
A person with a Throne was bound to have an immeasurable future.
If he belonged to the Demon Race, that would of course be a great asset to them.
But if he stood against the Demon Race, it would not bode well.
Maximus Powers had no intention of letting him live, not planning to give this genius any chance to develop.
Moreover, he had never been treated with such disregard and nonchalance, so Logan, by acting this way, had to pay the price.
He swiftly flew toward him and landed a punch on his body.
Logan also used all his strength to take the hit.
However, without summoning the power of the Throne, he was no match for Maximus Powers, and at the moment of contact between their fists, Logan was sent flying into the ranks of his team, even knocking several team members out with him.
But the Elite Soldiers cared little for themselves, rushing forward to check on Logan first.
“Captain, are you alright? Are you okay?”
They had also heard what the Demon Race member had said, realizing that the captain was just joking, never truly considering the Demon Race, let alone any idea of joining them.
While they breathed sighs of relief, they also felt some regret for misunderstanding their captain.
