Stephen Chow played with the golden seed in his hand and thought about how to take down the Mithril Mine. He had done a preliminary analysis of the mysterious seed, but unfortunately he didn't find anything. It has an incredible hardness, whether it is an external force or a spell, it can't be shaken in the slightest, Stephen Zhou once smashed it with a hammer hundreds of times, and in the end, the golden seed fart did not have a small pit on the hammer.

"What the hell is this?"

Curiosity about the unknown made Stephen Chow want to plant it, but reason told him that he had to be cautious.

He stroked the golden oak seed and muttered, "Where did it come from? A seed is so powerful, but what about the tree that gave birth to it? It can't be as powerful as a god?"

It's uncertain how far this world's powerhouses can go, and Stephen Chow worries that it won't be easy to attract the covetousness of legendary spellcasters if they are planted. However, holding such a treasure in his hand, but not being able to understand its function, also made Stephen panic, and he wondered if this seed should be planted in his half-plane.

The so-called [Half-Plane] is the space that the legendary caster has carved out on his own.

However, most of the alien planes opened up by the casters are very small, and only those with an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers can barely be called half-planes. Stephen Zhou's alien space is not large, and it takes at least fifty years to cultivate a formed half-plane, and the famous half-planes during the Arcane Empire are all passed down from generation to generation, and it has only expanded to a great extent after several generations of great arcanists have cultivated and extracted the elemental power in the void. The largest half-plane controlled by the Supreme Arcane Council is the [Constructed Realm], which covers an area of about 1.5 million square kilometers, and it took seven generations of Grand Arcanists more than 1,800 years to finally take shape.

This half-plane has complete gravity, soil, magma, sunlight, air, water, atmosphere, energy barriers, etc., and has temperature, climate, and weather close to normal planets, which can grow most of the plants and allow most of the intelligent life to survive in it.

The biggest difference between it and a planet is that the half-plane is a plane, protected by an elliptical energy barrier, and the deepest part of the underground is the elemental channel of earth, water, wind, and fire, rather than having a crustal structure like a planet.

Stephen Zhou's half-plane was seriously injured in the space-time turbulence, and his half-plane was originally used to store resources, so there was basically no ecosystem, and even gravity was very non-standard, which was equivalent to a void area isolated by an energy barrier. It is said that the half-plane is actually just a small alien space, with an elemental channel established at the bottom layer, and an energy barrier on the outer layer, and there is not even air inside, so it cannot preserve any living creatures at all.

Soft footsteps sounded.

Stephen Zhou quickly put away the golden seed, and then said to Countess Illya, who was standing outside the door and hesitated, "Come in." ”

Squeak.

Countess Illya gently pushed the door in, she washed her clothes during the day, and now she was wearing a light blue shirt and long dress, her long pale blonde hair hung down to her waist, her fair skin was like a beautiful jade in the light, her breasts were high and her waist was slender, her slender legs were looming under the long skirt, her proud figure was full of the charm of a mature woman, her skirt was delicate lace, and her bare feet were crystal clear like pearls, with an indescribable charm. As a famous noblewoman in Windy City, her beauty is one of the best in the entire North, and she is full of confidence before entering the room, but she suffers a serious setback immediately after entering the room. Because Stephen Zhou just glanced at her lightly, not only did he not have any stunning expression, but even frowned slightly, which made her doubt her charm.

"Boring woman. Stephen Zhou secretly said in his heart: "This level of charm is not even worthy of lifting shoes for succubi." ”

The Stephens family are naturally highly 'charm-resistant', and were once referred to by female wizards as 'stubborn stone heads'.

An upgraded version of the Elm Head.

Many members of the Stephen family agree that working with women is less interesting than mining.

"What's the matter?" said Stephen with a blank face.

He didn't have a good opinion of any woman who wanted to charm him, and Countess Illya was now several percent less in his mind.

As soon as she saw Stephen Zhou's slightly displeased expression, the clever Countess Illya immediately realized that her actions today might be counterproductive, and she lifted her dress up without a trace to cover the plump silhouette overflowing from her chest, and bowed her head slightly: "Lord Wizard, I would like to ask you to help us deal with the Earl of Keaton, and in return I can transfer that silver mine to your name." No matter what other requirements you have in the future, I and my family will do our best to meet you. ”

She finally couldn't help it.

The clever first mention of the silver mine that made Stephen Zhou excited, and expressed her willingness to transfer it to his name.

This was the biggest bargaining chip Countess Elija could come up with at the moment, and if the wizard in front of her really cared so much about the mysterious metal produced by the silver mine, then it was impossible for the other party to be indifferent to it. She wants to take back everything in her family, and Stephen Chow wants to get the Mithril Mine, and the goal is the same.

There was a dead silence in the room.

Stephen Zhou looked at the other party with a somewhat uncertain expression, and only after a long time did he say in a deep voice: "What are your plans?"

Obviously.

She was right! Stephen Chow really cares about the Mithril Mine!

Countess Illya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard this, and at the same time secretly a little lucky, knowing that there were many people with strange personalities among wizards, she immediately said: "Although Count Keaton controls Windy City, there are many people who are secretly dissatisfied with him. More importantly, the Earl of Keaton had been wounded on the battlefield in his early years, and since then no heirs have been born, and he has only one son to date. This son was born to his half-sister, and he was born with some dementia and stupidity, and if anything happened to the Earl of Keaton, the other nobles would attack him without our help. ”

"The Earl of Keaton has encroached on the interests of many nobles over the years. ”

Stephen Zhou frowned when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "That Earl of Keaton's family also gave birth to wizards?"

Misgenarian marriage.

This is something that often happens within a family with a warlock bloodline, somewhat similar to gambling, where it is possible to give birth to a genius, but more likely to give birth to a dull offspring. The evil sense of the outside world towards warlocks is largely because of this family problem, the more ignorant and civilized the warlock family, the more likely it is to intermarry internally, and in the arcane era, if the top warlocks want offspring, most of them are looking for the opposite sex of the same level, or extracting their own bloodline essence and cultivating offspring with a method similar to artificial insemination. In terms of the continuation of offspring, warlocks are far less convenient than mages, and when Countess Illya said that Earl Keaton married his half-sister, Stephen Zhou's first thought was that the other family had produced warlocks.

"Uh. Yes. Countess Illya said slowly, "There have been one or two wizards, but in the last few decades only his aunt has gone to the other side of the channel. ”

Stephen Zhou's expression suddenly became solemn when he heard this.

After a moment, he looked up and said, "Tell me everything you know." It's not just the Earl of Keaton, there's something else. ”

The conversation continued into the night.

By the time Countess Elijah left, it was already after midnight, and Stephen Chow's expression was a little solemn, because he felt that he might have to fight the wizards of this world.
