Chapter 217: An Irresistible Temptation, Making Waves Again (Grand Chapter)

Hearing Laurent's words, not only Li De, but even Betty, a Valkyrie with the blood of the Northland royal family, was very interested.

Stretch out your hand, and gently wipe two fingers on the bright white sword in your hand. Stroking the greatsword that originally belonged to Grote.

The edge of the blade is cold, and the sharp blade can pierce the scales of the dragon.

This sword sliced through the tons of armor on the cyclops of Cortso, giving Corso a great sword that had been bestowed upon them by the former Northland royal family for their prowess in battle.

Betty knew that the reason why the greatsword was so sharp was not only because of the countless forging times by the dwarven forge masters, but also because a fist-sized piece of Mithril was added to the forging.

This precious metal, which can improve the performance of weapons by several notches, has always been a treasure of the Northland royal family.

No one knew the importance of Mithril better than she did.

"Are you sure it's a Mithril vein? What qualifications does a petty businessman have to know that could make two countries go to war over this? ”

Betiana couldn't help but question directly.

The voice is lazy and mature, standard royal sister style.

Laurent glanced at Li De, and after seeing the other party motioning for him to answer, Laurent bowed deeply respectfully to the lady who was said to be a level 15 Northland warrior.

When dealing with the strong, you must be respectful enough.

"Lord Betty, the Mithril vein was not discovered by me, but by the dwarves"

Dwarf?

Li De raised his eyebrows, how can there be a dwarf in this?

Dwarves have a great reputation in glory, and as natural weapon forgers, dwarve-produced weapons have always been synonymous with quality.

"Let's talk about it in detail", Li De also raised his interest at this time, dwarf, Mithril vein, the combination of these two words seems much more reliable than Laurent, a merchant.

If it was a vein of Mithril discovered by the dwarves, the persuasiveness had obviously risen by more than a notch.

These dwarves have a crazy love for mining, let alone digging up the Mithril veins. It is to dig out the magma, dig to the dragon's lair, and even dig through the world to other planes, Li De dares to believe it.

"Yes," Laurent said in a somewhat gloated tone, "Lord Leed, do you remember the first time we met outside of Green City last October?"

Li De nodded, at that time, the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce had just returned from the border, and the goods were snatched up by the orcs.

He also returned to Grimm City for the first time from the Bloodborne Castle, which had not yet been renamed the City of Daybreak.

It was precisely because of that chance encounter that Li De acquired the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

"That's where it all started," Laurent then began to tell in detail, and the story of the story is also very storytelling.

More than half a year ago, when Laurent was not bankrupt and was acquired by Li De, he once used all his net worth, and even borrowed 200 gold Puke from the Greentown Chamber of Commerce to prepare to go to the border to buy and sell Mithril Mine.

The Mithril Mine was sold by the dwarves who lived on the border, and Laurent at that time also got the news by chance.

Originally, he was only going to try his luck, but he didn't expect to actually buy the Mithril ore in the hands of the dwarves...... Although the quality of this batch of ore is very low, and the Mithril that can be smelted is only pitiful, it is enough for him to make a lot of money.

However, just as he was about to return to Grimm City with Mithril ore and was about to return to Green City, he was plundered by the orcs, and all the goods were robbed.

After that, it was the same as Li De's memory, because he was bankrupt, he was accepted by Li De, and became a member of the Scarlet Mage Tower to start the road to rise again.

But if that were all there was to it, Laurent wouldn't have gotten the news now.

As the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce grew, he was obsessed with the extremely precious Mithril ore that could bring a lot of profits.

Even later, he wanted to regain the Mithril ore to get Li De's reuse.

Therefore, Laurent kept sending people to search for news of the dwarves at the border, but because of the orc invasion, the contact point established by the dwarves had long since disappeared, and this plan was put on hold.

But it wasn't until a month and a half ago that things changed again.

With the rapid growth of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce's power and influence, and the constant trade with the border, Laurent's people once again contacted the dwarves.

However, to his disappointment, the dwarves announced that they would not sell the Mithril ore for the time being, and although disappointed, Laurent still established a trading relationship with the dwarven tribe, hoping to buy the precious Mithril ore again in the future.

Originally, he had little hope for this, after all, the dwarves were the best craftsmen in the world, and they could not sell such precious ore in large quantities

But the news that made him excited came, just three days ago, the dwarves suddenly came to his door and asked for help.

Laurent was extremely curious about this, and only found out the reason after detailed questioning.

It turns out that the habitat of the dwarven tribe is not in the land of the Nolan Empire, but in the barren wasteland of the orcs, in the distant mountains and mountains of the orc jurisdiction.

The distant mountain range is very large, spanning the Nolan Empire and the orc empire, and there are also long mountains on the side of the barren wasteland, and the dwarven tribe is hidden in this endless mountain range.

Due to the lack of food and various living materials, the dwarves often trade forged weapons and ores with the humans on the border in exchange for the materials they need.

No matter how carefully you hide your secrets, they may one day be discovered, let alone large-scale transactions.

After trading with the outside world for a long time, the dwarves became less vigilant and were inadvertently spotted by a powerful orc tribe near the dwarven habitat.

There is no doubt that an inter-ethnic war began.

Orcs treat dwarves no differently than humans, treating them as enemies.

Although the dwarves are also a race with strong combat effectiveness, the number is too small, and the entire dwarf tribe was completely destroyed after only three days of attack by an army of more than 10,000 orcs.

The dwarven tribe fell into captivity of the orcs.

And the escaped dwarf found Laurent to make a deal with him, and if he could save his people, he was willing to pay for a vein of Mithril that had just been discovered by the dwarven tribe and had not yet been mined.

After listening to Laurent's words, Li De's expression was very strange.

How does this sound like there are a few separate spectrums?

That's all the troubadour tells the story, isn't it?

"Laurent, how can you be sure that the dwarf's words are true?

And you are just the manager of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce, why did the other party ask you for help? Why should you help?

Do you have what it takes to deal with an army of 10,000 orcs? And still in the barren wasteland.

You don't know whose territory the barren wasteland is, do you?

If you want to face an army of tens of thousands of orcs in the barren wasteland, even Grimm City has to think twice. ”

Wei Na, who was behind Li De, spoke calmly, although a complete Mithril vein made her very excited.

As the real power figure of the Scarlet Mage Tower, the information she has been exposed to during this time naturally makes her know the preciousness of Mithril.

But the risk here is too great, and there are tens of thousands of orc tribes.

Even the entire Crimson Mage Tower would not be able to face such a formidable foe.

Laurent smiled a wryly, "Lord Weina, the dwarves naturally won't ask me for help.

The dwarf's offer is for Lord Li De", said with some admiration in his eyes, "Lord Li De now has a lot of influence on the border.

The troubadour is singing the praises of his legends, the merchants are talking about his legends, and the mages are praising his talents......"

Hearing this, Wei Na's mood instantly improved a lot, and she secretly glanced at her handsome side face and was satisfied.

"The dwarves asked me to ask you for help, and the dwarves said that only the Crimson Mage Tower has the power to save them......"

A little thought flashed in Li De's eyes.

"What if we don't say yes?"

Laurent shook her head, "They didn't say it, but I think they'd go to other forces."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple," the corners of Li De's mouth hung a meaningful arc, "Although this group of dwarves is in a desperate situation, their wisdom is not low.

Laurent, never underestimate a group of intelligent beings. ”

"Believe me, we are the only ones in all of Greene City who are currently the targets of the dwarves."

Hearing this, the three people in the room were a little puzzled, and looked at him with curiosity.

Li De's tone became a little more serious, "I'm from a small town on the border......"

These words made Betty, who knew Li De's true identity, pouted slightly, but did not open her mouth to refute.

"The Cachar family was destroyed because of the orcs. I was even forced to live in Grimm City, where I built the Scarlet Mage Tower, but my hatred with the orcs was irreconcilable.

If there is a good reward as bait, plus it is to attack the orcs, the dwarves must believe that I will not skimp on my strength.

In addition to this, there is a very important point......"

"What's the matter?" Wei Na asked a little curiously, and played a good role in answering the phone.

Li De smiled slightly, "Mr. Spark"

"Master Spark?"

Laurent was a little puzzled, "What does this have to do with Master Spark?" What the dwarves need is your help. ”

Li De shook his head, "Laurent, your business thinking is indeed good, but in this regard, it is far behind. ”

Laurent was a little ashamed, "Lord Leed, I'm sorry"

"Actually, this time the dwarves should have rushed at the teacher behind me, and Teacher Sparker should be their main target," Li De's eyes were deep.

"The Scarlet Mage Tower, even if it had the strength to deal with an orc army of tens of thousands, is unlikely to be able to deal with an orc army of tens of thousands, and I'm sure the dwarves are well aware of this.

But it doesn't matter if I can't, someone can do it, my teacher Spark.

I don't think this Mithril vein is for me, but for the teacher.

The teacher is not only the owner of the White Tower, but also the vice president of the Green City Mage Association, plus he has been working in Green City for so many years, if he makes up his mind,

Then let alone 10,000 orcs, even if it is 50,000 orcs, he can mobilize enough strength to exterminate them. ”

Li De sighed with emotion, Spark's accumulation over the years was not a joke, otherwise the Scarlet Mage Tower would not have developed and grown so smoothly to this extent without being peeped at by outsiders.

"So, the dwarves wanted to use you to pass this news on to Lord Sparker in the first place? But why didn't they just go to Master Spark? Weina continued to ask

Li De glanced at his little maid appreciatively, and it was the right time to say this, and sure enough, it was a close person around him, and there was a tacit understanding.

"Because, why?

What qualifications does an ordinary dwarf have to meet the vice president of the Green City Mage Association, the Lord of the White Tower, and the powerful Archmage??

Besides, even if they do, what can the dwarves use to win the trust of the other party?

Will the teacher believe a dwarf that appeared out of nowhere?

Will you deal with an army of tens of thousands of orcs for the sake of this uncertain Mithril vein?

But if the news comes out of my mouth, the gold content is different.

Anyway, I'm also a disciple of my teacher. ”

Li De paused, and a little emotion flashed in his eyes, "And even if the teacher is unwilling to do it in the end, it will not hurt the dwarf,

Because this dwarf can take the name of the teacher and continue to find other forces.

Archmage Sparker was very impressed by this, but finally gave up due to other considerations, and the matter was certified by Archmage Spark...... With these names, do you think there will be forces interested in the dwarven rhetoric? ”

Li De shrugged his shoulders and finally made up his mind.

"So the news that this dwarf gave you was just for you to pass it on to me, and for you to pass it on to me just to let me pass it on to the teacher.

Even passing it on to the teacher is not his ultimate goal, he may need the name Sparker to negotiate with other forces"

After listening to Li De's words, not only Laurent and Weina, but even Betty, the royal family of the Northland, opened their mouths slightly and looked at Li De with a surprised face.

The Northland Valkyrie suddenly felt that these humans were so complicated at this time...... The routine is so deep, I really want to go home.

"This, is this dwarf's message fake? Or maybe they don't have the imagery to work with us? Laurent looked at Li De with admiration on her face, why is there such a big gap between people?

Li De shook his head, "No, this news is true nine times out of ten, and the dwarves have a very strong intention to cooperate with us. ”

Betty was completely stunned at this point, and she found that she didn't seem to be able to understand Li De's words very well.

"Then why do you question their ......?"

The corners of Li De's mouth curled slightly, and he said meaningfully, "It all depends on our attitude,

If we agree, then the dwarves will immediately start moving, but if we don't, they will immediately seek out other forces to cooperate.

This is not a contradiction.

As for why they have a strong idea of working with us, we can know if they are the first to come to us.

Moreover, we must be their first choice in the whole of Green City, after all, I have a hatred with the orcs for the destruction of my family. ”

Li De's words helped a few people clear their minds.

"Lord Li De, your wisdom is enough to amaze the goddess", Laurent found that his IQ was simply rubbed by Li De, and such a simple information could be deduced so much.

"So, can we help the dwarves?" Betty couldn't help but speak at this time, as a Northland warrior, the frenzy of battle flowed in her veins.

If Li De decides to send troops, then there will inevitably be a fight, which is much more fun than practicing swords in the Scarlet Mage Tower.

Li De glanced at this Valkyrie with rising fighting spirit and shook his head, "No, we never help people who are not our allies"

These words immediately darkened Betty's eyes, and there was no fight again, what a boring life.

A smile flashed in Li De's eyes, "However, we can fight for fairness and justice.

The lowly and dirty orcs dare to bully the weak and kind dwarves, as mages who uphold justice and light in their hearts, we should destroy the evil and save the good"

These words made Betty immediately lift her spirits, and she looked at him with burning eyes, as if as long as he gave an order, the giant sword in her hand could be waved for him at any time.

"Laurent, the dwarf is there, I'm going to talk to him."

"The dwarf is staying in the hotel next to the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce, I'll bring him with you."

Li De shook his head, "Give me the address, you don't have to meddle in other things."

After speaking, his eyes became very stern, "Besides, this matter is not allowed to be talked to anyone.

All those who knew about this immediately issued a gag order, and it was Jin Mai's last person who immediately transferred them to the Scarlet Mage Tower to patrol and were not allowed to go out.

People who were not from the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce immediately sent people out to arrest them and imprison them. ”

Hearing this, Laurent's heart was awe-struck, and he naturally knew the importance of this matter.

This is a major event to keep up with the army of 10,000 orcs, and it also involves a vein of Mithril that would allow the two kingdoms to wage war.

The wealth and danger in this are enough to breathe, and if it leaks out, even the Crimson Mage Tower may not be able to please it.

"Yes, Lord Li De, only two of my cronies know about this matter, and I will send them to the Scarlet Mage Tower immediately to listen to orders."

Li De nodded slightly, showed a satisfied smile, stood up and patted Laurent on the shoulder.

"You've done a good job during this time, keep up the good work, the Scarlet Mage Tower won't treat anyone who has meritorious service to anyone"

Laurent felt the encouragement in Li De's eyes, her heart was hot, and she nodded fiercely, "Lord Li De, Laurent will not let you down." ”

After Laurent went down, Lide immediately began to instruct Weina.

"Wina, let Isha stay with the teacher during this time, don't go anywhere, Betty, I'll take it away, and the matter of the Scarlet Mage Tower will be handled by you."

Wei Na came to Li De and looked at the dark eyes with a heartfelt smile.

"Master Lide, Weina will help you manage the Mage Tower."

Looking at the delicate and beautiful face in front of him, Li De reached out and pinched it, and the soft and lubricated touch made him laugh.

"Waiting for me to come back"

After speaking, he nodded to Betty, who had already lifted the greatsword and was about to leave.

The latter immediately followed up and prepared to trigger.

Wei Na suddenly seemed to remember something, and hesitated a little, "Lord Li De, the adventurer of the lost world?" ”

Li De patted his head, he had just talked too deeply, and he almost forgot about the player of Glory Light.

"Forget it, I'll see him later"

After saying that, he pondered for a moment, and said with a frown, "Weina, these adventurers are restless masters, and they can continue to be resurrected and reborn.

In the future, these adventurers will occupy a very important position in Green City and even the entire glorious world.

It's a good idea to do some research and learn about them during this time, and in the future the Crimson Mage Tower will build a party of adventurers. ”

Hearing Li De's advice, Wei Na also felt that he seemed to attach great importance to these new adventurers, and hurriedly nodded and agreed.

After explaining the trivial matters, Li De left directly.

At this time, the light of glory was full of surprise and was summoned by the owner of the Scarlet Mage Tower, and just came to the outside of the Mage Tower.

Li De left the Mage Tower ahead of schedule, and the difference between the two was only a dozen seconds, and he missed it perfectly.

Dressed in a gray mage apprentice robe, the Glory Light looked left and right with a bit of curiosity in his eyes, and followed the mage who had come forward to inform him into the main tower of the Scarlet Mage Tower.

This was the first time that the Glory Light had stepped into the real Crimson Mage Tower, and it felt like there were not enough eyes to look around.

This is the Mage Tower? , it's so advanced, this kind of magic fluctuation, I'm afraid I'm going to be killed by magic when I touch it, right?

MMP, there is an alchemy trap here?? I almost stepped on it...... "You are the light of glory?" ”

A crisp voice interrupted the gleaningly glare of glory.

Turning his head slightly, the light of glory was stunned, and his eyes flashed with irrepressible amazement.

Damn, it's so beautiful! Is this the goddess in Glory?

How can it be so beautiful??

It was only after the mage in front of him saluted that the glorious light came back to his senses and bowed to the goddess in front of him.

"Good day, sir"

Wei Na's face returned to coldness at this time, her chin was slightly raised, her sapphire-like eyes were a little majestic, and her long golden hair made her temperament full of the taste of a queen.

The little maid in front of Li De is the one in charge of the entire Scarlet Mage Tower at this time, and can decide the fate of anyone in the Mage Tower.

A well-deserved queen.

"Good day, Glory Light, I heard that you are an adventurer who has lost the plane......"

The light of glory straightened up, looking at Wei Na, she only felt that her heart was about to get drunk, mmp, this NPC is simply killing me.

Vina Bellamy

Grade: 4

Class: Mage

Description: The most trusted ruler of the owner of the Scarlet Mage Tower, a business pearl praised by the nobles of Green City, and a business star with outstanding business talents.

Damn, this is Weina?

Then there was some heartache.

Such a beautiful woman turned out to be a big man.

"Yes, Vena-sama."

Weina's eyes were a little sharp, and her momentum became very oppressive.

"Glory Light, can you tell me who the adventurers of the Lost Plane are?"

Yes? Looking at Weina's gaze, the light of glory panicked, although there are no taboos as a player, but in the past few days, he has also known how much power NPCs have.

Even as long as the other party is willing, he may be swept away by this NPC who is so beautiful that he panics at any time.

Already knowing how difficult it is for the player to survive, he is naturally reluctant to leave such a comfortable force, and if he has no desire, he is strong, and after having desires and needs, he naturally does not have the mentality of having no taboos when he first entered the game.

"Vena-sama, adventurer......"

As Vina listened in amazement as the Light of Glory said something about the actions of the sand sculptors, Lid led Betty out of the Scarlet Mage Tower.

The two of them switch identities in a dark alley and gallop towards the West End.

From the time Laurent talked about the Mithril vein, Lide was interested in this precious vein discovered by the dwarves.

But it is impossible to eat this cake with the strength of the Scarlet Mage Ta Ming's face alone.

Tens of thousands of orcs are not pigs, these warriors with strong physical fitness are notoriously powerful in combat.

As for letting Sparker get a piece of the root or even letting the other party become the leader, Li Deke can't do this kind of thing, it's a Mithril vein, a whole Mithril vein.

Not to mention the wealth contained in it, even the entire Green City will go crazy after knowing it.

He now had to keep the news to a minimum.

Now that the Crimson Mage Tower can't be eaten, other forces must be used.

He's not just a Crimson Mage Tower.

The Dark Covenant, one of the Big Three in the Western District, and the City of Dawn in the depths of the distant mountains and mountain ranges are all shocking existences.

The dwarf who gave the information to Laurent may have considered that the Crimson Mage Tower did not have the strength to eat the Mithril vein and would pass the message on to Spark.

But he must not have imagined that the Scarlet Mage Tower did not have this strength, but Li De did.

As the Lord of Dawn, the leader of the Covenant of Darkness, and the tower master of the Scarlet Mage Tower, he now has 6 of the top combat power of level 15 alone.

Betty, the Valkyrie of the Northlands with the blood of the Northlands royal family, is level 16.

Grote, Son of the Northlands, level 16.

Koso, a bronze cyclops who activates the bloodline of an ancient giant, is level 16.

The first dawnbreaker bat of the newborn King, Castro, is level 15.

Blasphemer, High Priest of the Shadows, Amy, Level 15.

Stanley, Dark Priest of the Evening Bell Church, Level 15.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Li De already has the top strength in Green City, and the power in his hands will not lose to any force under the transcendental.

That's where his confidence comes from.

Although tens of thousands of orcs are powerful, they ......

If the information on this vein is true, he really wants to see if the City of Dawn can eat it.

A vein of Mithril is a temptation that no one can resist.
