Chapter 2071: Ash Annihilation at Dawn (3)

"100 million? Are they crazy?!" On the way back, Lawrence's fierce complaint came from the other end of the communicator.

"I know what you're trying to say, but can you stop yelling at the communicator, my ears hurt. Bediwell removed the communicator and rubbed his buzzing wolf ears.

"Sorry...... Lawrence also paused to adjust his mood, and continued: "So, boss, what are you going to do? Just follow that group of people and pay 100 million mediation fees, or are you going to hand over that sun-wheel thing?"

"If I think I can figure out something, I think I can still make up 100 million. Bediwell looked at the pine forest in the distance, which of course was the pine grove of his own sand ship [Aurora], and now as the sun set, the green garden rose from the lower deck to the deck of the sand ship to soak up the last bit of sunlight.

"But it's completely vexatious. Lawrence continued to complain: "At the end of the day, the guys in the Egyptian government are just jealous of your activity in today's game. They don't have any evidence that you stole that ancient artifact from the tomb of Pharaoh Menes, and the tomb we left was completely searched through the pass, since they couldn't find anything at the time, why do they think that you brought their national treasure out of the tomb, boss?"

"I know all these things. The werewolf youth snorted, "But I still decided to pay for it." ＂

"Didn't you say anything from Great Britain?" asked Lawrence.

"King Arthur told me that they could use some diplomatic means to put pressure on the Egyptian government to stop there. Bediwell replied truthfully: "But this will inevitably affect the relations between the two countries...... Besides, I don't want to owe King Arthur any more favors. So I'm going to figure it out on my own. ＂

＂...... Unbelievable!" Lawrence continued to complain, "So...... Do you want me to help you contact the Melson Brotherhood, and maybe the Brotherhood can help mediate?"

"I don't want to continue to owe favors to the Brotherhood," Bediwell shook his head, "I haven't even officially joined the Brotherhood of Melson yet, remember?"

"This won't work, that's not going to work, boss, you're so stubborn. Lawrence then snorted, "So what do you want?"

"Is there any way to make a quick buck, Lawrence?" the werewolf boy asked, "You kid is a worm, I know you must have a way, right?"

"Yes, yes...... Well, when is it going to be paid?"

"The first half must be paid within a week, and the second half within a month. Bediwell then said, "This is the longest grace that Great Britain can obtain for me." ＂

"That means you'll have to get together 50 million this week? Lawrence muttered on the other end of the microphone, "That's a lot of difficulty." ＂

"I know you have a way. Bediville continued.

"Okay, I'll figure it out...... Lawrence sighed, "But I have to warn you first, the boss that this money is going to be hard." ＂

"I don't have a problem with that. The werewolf youth shrugged his shoulders, "After successfully advancing to the finals, I just had a week to prepare for the finals. ＂

He jumped from the small transport boat and reached the deck of his own sand boat. Lawrence happened to be sitting on a bench not far away, tending to two imps playing in the woods, a distance that no longer required the use of a communicator.

"What are you doing?" said Bediwell, looking out as soon as he reached the deck. The two imps seemed to be playing with paper airplanes on the edge of the deck, folding paper airplanes of different shapes and colors out of colorful origami that I don't know who had prepared for them, and sending them out. After all, Aubert and Kate are just children, and they find everything novel and interesting to play, giggling and laughing, while constantly folding more paper airplanes and throwing them out, as if they are flying farther than whose paper airplanes are flying.

Under the reflection of the setting sun, there are already hundreds of paper airplanes floating on the surface of the Red Sea in the distance, and the scene is quite spectacular. Even Segrade's pseudo-dragon pet "Shining Silver" came over to join in the fun, flying around the planes in the air, occasionally picking up paper airplanes to play.

"Polluting the environment, yes. The werewolf youth then complained.

"It's a special cornstarch paper that degrades immediately after it hits water, and it doesn't take long for the paper plane to disappear after it falls into the Red Sea. Lawrence said. Seeing that he knows the source of the paper so clearly, it is estimated that he bought it for the imps to play with.

"Be careful when you play, don't fall into the sea with one foot in the air. Bediwell then commanded again.

"It's okay, it's okay, the wings of the puppet can fly. Tigerman boy Aubert grinned mischievously, threw another paper airplane, and laughed meaninglessly.

"Something's going to happen, Aubert will save me. Kate also said that not to be outdone, she threw another paper airplane.

Bedeville shrugged, he knew that it was a bit redundant, the fence on the deck of the sand boat was about the height of two imps' chests, and it was impossible for the two children to fall into the sea unless they were naughty enough to climb the fence. Not letting the two imps make too dangerous moves is the business of Lawrence and the adults who are in charge of it.

"Did the others come back?" asked Lawrence instead.

In fact, he mainly wanted to talk to Palamides about "financing", and also wanted to confirm how much military funds were left in the total amount of military funds that all of them had now. He remembered that Palamides and Logan had cooperated in making soda, and it seemed that they had spent a lot of money to bribe several food and drug authorities in Egypt, and even stuffed money into the industrial and commercial departments. A lot of military funds will not be used.

"The old mage is still hiding in his workshop as always, researching things, you see that he has no time to take care of the two children, so he forced me to take care of them. The leopard family has not yet returned, and they don't know where to run to have a good time. After all, they've all made it past the semi-finals, and it's time to celebrate. But the little white bear came back, and as soon as he came back, he hid in the bathhouse and soaked. Anyway, he's always been so fond of bathing?"

"I don't know...... Bediwell remembered Elaine's transformation into a White Shark. Elaine has also been practicing transformation, trying to control the ferocious beast in the White Shark state. Leave him alone.

"So, I'll talk to Logan about something first. The werewolf youth then said, "It's not too early, and don't let the imps play on the deck for too long after the sun goes down, lest they catch a cold." Let's take them to dinner later. ＂

"Okay, of course, Boss. Lawrence deliberately made a saluting gesture to tease Bedwell.

"Stinky Boy...... The werewolf youth ignored Lawrence and walked into the cabin on his own.

"Welcome back, Captain Bediwell. As soon as I entered the cabin, Eve's voice rang out in the hallway. Then several golden scarab golems flew past Bediwell, flying out of the deck.

"What was that?"

"That's the daily routine that Mr. Segrade has ordered. Eve said, "The work used to collect the flammable flower seeds of protist sample XF-813. ＂

"Oh, the fire charm flower. Bediwell thought about it, and then remembered that the so-called flammable flower seed is the fire charm flower seed. This kind of thing that dries and explodes is almost like the one used by people in the old days*, and it really helps a lot in today's battles. The fiery red light that kept faintly flashing through the pine trees in the sunset just now seemed to be the fire magic flower glowing.

"Be careful when collecting, don't let the two imps play with it. "The two fur children can play with anything for a long time, for fear that they will secretly play with the seeds of the fire charm and cause a fire in the boat." ＂

"Understood, Captain. Eve replied.

Normally, there was that kind of dangerous goods in the ship, and Bediwell really didn't worry about letting Kate and Aubert run around in the ship. However, he knew that Eve, the artificial intelligence navigation system of the sand boat, would monitor everything in the ship twenty-four hours a day, and as long as Eve was watching, the two little children would generally not be able to play any tricks.

Bediwell, who was thinking and walking, soon came to the workshop of the great mage Logan, and pushed the door in without asking too much.

"Logan, are you there? I want to discuss something with you------"

"Not now------ be careful!" shouted Old Man Logan.

A dark shadow swooped towards Bediwell's head. The werewolf youth didn't have any blocking or counterattacking in his hands, and his subconscious was to turn his waist to avoid this unknown "attack".

However, the thing that lunged at him didn't seem to attack him at all, but instead tried to escape from the laboratory, and it shook off for a moment, and immediately passed by the werewolf youth, and escaped through the open warehouse door.

"What------ werewolf youth was startled, and hurriedly asked, "What the hell was that just now?!"

"Core. The old mage shrugged and looked at Bedeville: "Do you remember the golem core that the big cat asked me to help repair before?" I repaired it, and seeing that it had always been honest, I tried to install it into a small prefabricated golem body to see what it could do. Hell knows that all of a sudden it became restless and scurrying around. ＂

"There's no dangerous weapon on it, is it?" The werewolf youth looked at the old man's arms and face with a few shallow blood marks, and asked, "If it is armed, it is not a good thing to let it run around in my ship." ＂

"It's not going to be armed, and its body is a simple shell I tried to make out of wood. There are claws for crawling, but their sharpness is not even comparable to that of a kitten's, so there is generally no problem. Logan scratched his head: "It's a pity, I thought it was a good research sample." ＂

"Tsk. Bediwell snorted, "But I still have children in my boat, and I still can't let that dangerous thing run around." ------Eve?"

"Understood, Captain. Golems have been dispatched for tracking, and the exact location of the escaped object is expected to be determined in ten minutes. The ship's AI replied.

"Just break it off and don't damage its body, it's a precious research sample. Logan replied.

"Understood. Eve replied again, and then there was no sound, presumably busy dealing with the matter.

"Then ------" the old mage also put on his robe, picked up a staff and walked out of his workshop, "let's do it too, this is a rare operation to catch insects." ＂
