But.

After the old man finished speaking, the clerk sitting behind him was also the chairman's deputy, and the hand that was recording paused slightly, as if he remembered something, leaned forward slightly and whispered:

"Your Excellency, what about the Mafia family?"

The deputy knew that mentioning that name at this time might cause displeasure to His Excellency the Chairman.

But in today's special period, the Mafia family, a huge black gang power raised by the "Dutch banking group", is also a link that cannot be ignored.

For bankers, the most taboo thing is all kinds of uncertainty.

Especially after the new head of the family, "Maniac" Danford Mafiya, came to power, along with their black business slowly out of the Taylor Kingdom, they have gradually become somewhat incompatible with the top management of the banking group.

Even if the Mafia family's residence has always been in the Golden Lion City, and it is constantly monitored by the transcendents of the banking group, those so-called family defense forces are not worth mentioning to the banking group with great knights.

But we can't let such a force go unpunished.

The old man glanced back at his deputy, although the last thing he wanted to hear during this time was the headache name "Mafia".

But he didn't get angry, his deputy was just doing his duty.

Moreover, as a veteran leader who has led the "Dutch Bank Group" in the north and south for decades, Mr. Chairman's decision-making has never been affected by emotions.

"Don't make decisions when you're in a bad mood" is a phrase that is clearly written in the syndicate maxim in addition to "not even a god can look through the Dutch ledger."

Although after the change of dynasty of the Mafia family, the actions of the new head of the family are not too satisfying.

But how to deal with it, I have already made a decision.

Since the "knife" in the hand is blunt, it is good to polish it. If it is still not satisfactory after polishing, it means that this "knife" is really unbearable, and it can be re-forged.

For the "Dutch banking group", which has unimaginable resources in its hands, this is just a trivial matter.

Well, in order to avoid misunderstanding on the part of the kingdom, let's put the matter of sharpening the knife until the end of this state of emergency.

"Send someone to warn that 'madman', and let him stay in the Mafia family mansion for me at this time.

If he dares to defy the wind again, even if I can spare him, the dozen or so official knights of the Alliance's Joint Mobile Force may not let him go. ”

"Obey Your Excellency, I'll do it!"

......

After "Venia" left, Aiwen's life completely returned to peace, but once he was bitten by a snake, he didn't dare to run around the water city alone for the time being.

During this time, he honestly stayed on the "Storm Horn", making final preparations for the breakthrough of the official wizard.

During this period, when he went to sea to carry out a cruising mission, he successfully made the [Underwater Breathing Talisman] using the materials on the body of a low-level sea demonic creature that he accidentally captured.

Then, from Solomon, a full-fledged wizard who was skilled in "summoning", he traded for two giant "Purgatory Rats" with a body size of more than two meters, and used their incisors to make [Fire Resistance Talisman].

So far, the production of three kinds of amulets has been completed, and the preparation of "Wild Amulet" has been exceeded.

The three basic varieties of "Activated Plants", [Giant Vine], [Black Thorn], and [Laughing Spore] have also cultivated corresponding seeds and have corresponding spellcasting abilities.

The precursor to the promotion of the "Living Chemical School" mainly requires the corresponding knowledge and practice, which is the kind of ethereal "behavior", and does not require the type of talisman to be made and the magical seeds to be cultivated.

Therefore, Evan will not demand the so-called "perfection".

All that remains is the last mountain of potions in the "Potions Science" series, [Psychic Elixir], and as long as you can successfully prepare a bottle, you can start preparing for the promotion ceremony.

However, before that, he still needs to get a sufficient amount of the main ingredient of the potion - "Evil Spirit Dust".

It's just that in the Old World, the ruling power of the Church goes deeper than the royal power.

Even where there are no tax collectors, the priests of the goddess are absolutely indispensable, even if they are just guarding a simple "altar" made of stones.

The priests of the goddess happen to be the biggest nemesis of the existence of evil spirits, and after being purified by them, not to mention that "evil spirit dust" is scum, there will be no one left for Aven.

If you want to buy holy water, the way to get "evil spirit dust" from the church will not work.

As a relatively out-of-the-way material, unless it is for a special purpose, even wizards who deal with all kinds of strange things all day long do not want to have anything to do with dangerous things like evil spirits.

At least there is no stock in the warehouse of the "Violet Eye", nor in Solomon.

Even in ordinary witchcraft experiments or rituals, spiritual materials with similar properties need to be used, white crystal powder is better than evil spirit dust, and it is more stable!

So the problem of materials still needs to be solved by Evan himself.

It's like playing a qualifying match, there is still a small rank away from being promoted to the strongest king, even if it is the liver, you have to fight it!

In this case, Ai Wen couldn't help but scratch his liver a little, and he couldn't wait to end this broken mission immediately, follow the footsteps of the supernatural event, and get the "Evil Spirit Dust" done quickly.

Another point is that he witnessed the mythical form of "Kurutena" before, and the price that Evan paid to curb the loss of control.

The "adventurer's blood" in the body seems to be further activated, and from time to time a bold idea wells up in the bottom of my heart, and then I can't wait to put it into practice.

If it weren't for the "data-based vision" to monitor his mind at any time, I don't know how many big things have been done before I know it.

During this time, the sense of existence of "data-based vision" is simply more than in previous years, and a big [mental state offset] prompt will pop up every three or five times.

The explicit "adventurer's blood" does not make people become a reckless man who doesn't know how to think, but ignores the potential risks behind it, prompting Evan to choose the most radical option among many options!

From one researcher's point of view, he suspects that this inexplicable urge may be caused by abnormalities in the nervous system and abnormal hormone secretion in the body.

Although there are no serious consequences for the time being, Evan can't wait to become a full-fledged wizard and use the "Living Chemistry School" to study the biological body to curb this negative state to a certain extent.

Going to sea - returning to Hong Kong - research, there are no waves during this time.

In the middle, Milan also made several divination on the safety of the crew of the "Cape Storm" on the front line.

In the beginning.

Milan's divination can also capture a little bit of information that is not very useful. Most of them are ambiguous and not strong predictions of danger, similar to the divination imagery of ordinary voyages.

But as time passed, the results of this divination became calmer and calmer, and the waves became smaller and smaller.

There is no good, no bad, it is the calm and waveless of the ancient well. It seems to be a very normal ending, but it gives them a feeling that the rain is coming.

If they didn't know about the possible big moves of the "octopus ghost", they wouldn't think much about it. But now that we take the results to trace the root causes, it is not difficult to draw conclusions:

Some of the big events that have a wide range of influences, but can only be glimpsed for the time being, are getting closer and closer!

Milan made an analogy about this outcome.

"We went to visit a huge mountain range, and if we were far away, we could see that there was a cloud-shrouded peak, but we couldn't see the details.

But as we cut through the clouds and fog and got closer, and even when it came to the end, we were already in this mountain, and we could not see even the slightest branch of the mountain range. ”

.......

Offshore range, on a hidden island.

Ou –

Ou –

Flocks of seagulls chase and prey on the nearby waters, and they don't shy away from shuttling back and forth between the sailboats moored on the island's pier, even daring enough to snatch the crew's lunch.

"Look, Anne! I just got all the Nova intel from the Ground Serpent. ”

A tall and sturdy beautiful figure stepped onto the sailboat moored at the pier and shouted as if to take credit.

"Especially the intelligence of Lieutenant Colonel Evan, who is in the limelight, many intelligence dealers and various forces in the nearby waters are paying attention, and it is not difficult to get it.

However, he was not in Pharytis now, but had gone abroad on a mission.

With accurate information, not long ago, the alliance called on the first batch of "naval novas" to go to the Kingdom of Taylor to assist in the defense of the possible follow-up attack of the pirate king Hudgens. ”

Jasmine Styra took a piece of paper, found Anita who was practicing with a long sword, and reported to her in a low voice the harvest she had just landed.

Riding the Trident current, although there were many dangers in between, the "Golden Horned Deer" reached the eastern shore of the Black Sea faster than expected.

Because of their offshore activities, they had changed the sails for the Golden Horn before they arrived at the Tulip Alliance, and now it looked like a thinner fast merchant ship.

Now they were briefly repairing at the far sea border of Pharytis in a private harbor opened by smugglers.

Jasmine, on the other hand, took advantage of the connections left by the old captain to easily collect information about Evan when she went ashore.

Whew-

Hearing Jasmine's words, she exhaled a deep breath of white air, and Anita slowly lowered the dragon sword with both hands raised.

She was not excited to get the news of her brother, but her slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, feeling that something was not quite right in the information.

"Is this my impression of the thoughtful, deeply dangerous pirate king?

How is it possible that the location of the operation has already been known to everyone before the operation has begun? Even third-rate intelligence traffickers know about it.

Although it may have been an accidental intelligence leak, I don't believe that this great pirate who has been sitting on the throne of the Black Sea for decades could have not taken this into account!"

In fact, Anita's suspicions were correct, and the intelligence of the "Leiden Valley" was actually mainly due to the deliberate dissemination of the alliance side.

The original intention is also very simple.

This operation may be a "secret" operation for the Pirate King, but the more information is disseminated, the more attention will be paid to the "Leyden Valley".

No matter what the Pirate King wants, his follow-up is bound to be harder!

Obviously, the top of the alliance is not without the idea of letting the pirate king retreat.

And Anita, who also heard this information, frowned slightly, and after hearing Aivan's whereabouts, her first reaction was that things couldn't be that simple.

Once in "Shipwreck Bay", Anita has not seen the pirate king, in her impression this is a ruthless character who hides a knife in his mind like a sea of smiles, and if anyone dares to underestimate him, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.

Even if he has become a third-order knight, he has never dared to be arrogant to think that he can be on an equal footing with such a guy.

Realizing that things were not simple, Anita said with a solemn expression:

"There must be something inside to the 'Leiden Valley' that is not known to outsiders.

I don't care what the 'Octopus Ghost' wants to do, but if it affects Aven, my dragon slaying sword will have to give him a try!

Jasmine, let's go at once and follow the Ilminge Current as fast as we can!"

After the Trident Current reaches the east coast, one of the Canary Currents grazes the Kingdom of Ilia southward to the Treasure Sea, one of the Ilminge Currents continues northward into the Northern Islands, and the smallest of the Texga Currents turns back to the northern part of the New World.

From the current location of the Golden Horn to the Kingdom of Taylor, you can also take a ride with the help of the Ilminer Current.
