Dudian didn't joke with Losick, and when he set off the next day, Losic exchanged all the rare gems, gold coins, antiques and other valuable items in the small treasury for royal gold tickets, emptied the inventory of various money houses in the territory, and left a lot of agate jadeite and famous carvings, as well as rare antiques, packed them into a carriage and prepared to be hauled to the royal capital together.

Of course, Losik was reluctant to give up the wealth he had worked hard to accumulate over the years, but he didn't expect that Du Dian would directly demolish his small vault, and check his account books and lift all his old bottoms.

After raising money in just one day and setting off early the next morning, Dudian and Losik sat in the same carriage, one with a sad face and the other with a calm expression, leaning leisurely against the window, admiring the scenery along the way.

From time to time, Dudian said a few words to Helisa beside him, but Helisa didn't say much, silently, and this strange situation naturally attracted Losik's attention, but he didn't ask much.

Du Dian controlled the heat in his body at the level of ordinary pioneers, neither high nor low, if it was too low, he followed Losick's side as him, but it was more eye-catching, and this time when he entered the royal capital banquet, he acted as Losik's personal bodyguard.

"What kind of lord is this banquet?"

"Lord Hui, it is estimated that there are forty or fifty, but I don't know if there are a few."

"What are you doing with so many lords?"

"This is a banquet held by the Rose Lord, and it is said that there is something important to discuss, I don't know very well, but I'll find out when I go."

From time to time, Dudian chatted with Losick, asked about the situation in the royal capital, and in the blink of an eye, a day passed, they set out in the morning, arrived at the royal capital at sunset, and stayed in the carriage all day, passing through four or five territories on the way, but Losik showed his identity, and the road was smooth, and they had lunch in one of the territories.

Dudian also gradually understood that although these lords compete with each other for resources and each other's territories, and fight all year round, there are also some territories that cooperate with each other and have trade exchanges, and many of them form alliances to jointly defend against other lords, and the five territories they pass through today are the lords who have allied with Losick, and in this alliance of lords, Losik is only a member, not an alliance leader.

It would only take two or three hours to go straight from the territory of Losik to the royal capital, but they wasted a lot of time bypassing the territory of the rival lord today.

Du Dian did not have an in-depth understanding of the situation between these lords, looking at the towering city wall in front of him, he was shocked by the royal capital in front of him, the height of this city wall is actually two or three hundred meters, which is equivalent to more than half the height of the wall of sighs, but the wall of sighs is used to isolate the inner and outer areas, and this is just a city wall, in his impression, in addition to the giant wall, this is the highest city wall he has ever seen, if it is an ordinary person, looking up will be even more shocking.

Du Dian looked at it for a while, then withdrew his gaze and looked at the convoy lined up and slowly drove into the royal capital, with a trace of solemnity in his heart.

"My lord, the banquet will be held at the Taylor Hotel tomorrow night, how about we rent a hotel nearby tonight to rest?" After entering the royal capital, Losik seemed to relax a lot, not as tense as before, and smiled at Dudian.

Du Dian looked at the dark sky outside, muttered, and said, "While there is still some time, you let the butler lead the team to find a good hotel first, and you take me to the temple for a walk." ”

On the way he came, he asked that the temple would not close until half past eight in the evening, and it was still early.

Losik didn't expect Du Dian to wait so much, smiled slightly bitterly, and said, "My lord, isn't this a little too urgent, why don't we go tomorrow?" ”

"Right now." Dudian said categorically.

Seeing that he couldn't change Du Di'an's mind, Losik sighed in his heart and said, "Okay, I'll talk to the housekeeper." ”

After a while, after explaining the matter to the butler, Losik did not forget to tell him, "If you see them, say hello to them for me, and say that I have something to do temporarily." ”

The housekeeper promised.

Dudian knew that the "they" he was referring to the other good lords, who were actually slightly stronger than Losick, so he didn't want to snub these people easily.

After explaining what had happened, Losik instructed the coachman, broke away from the convoy, and galloped towards the temple.

After entering the royal capital, Dudian felt like he had come to the royal city of Sylvia, with clean streets, lively shops and a large number of tourists, but the styles of the two cities were very different, the patterns of clothes passed down by passers-by were not seen in Sylvia, and secondly, on the side of the road, you would often see some bards who were performing arts, surrounded by many spectators, and some down-and-out musicians playing musical instruments, performing on the streets, such a situation would be seen on every street, and from time to time you could hear one or two pleasant melodies drifting into the car.

In addition to these, the architectural style on the roadside is also somewhat different from Sylvia, the walls are mainly golden, which looks extremely luxurious, while Sylvia is mainly black and dark red, which is relatively dark.

Two giant walls, roughly the same, but with different cultures.

When Dudian looked out of his mind, Losik suddenly said, "My lord, the temple has arrived. ”

Du Dian came back to his senses, turned his head and looked, on the other side of the street, there was a clean staircase, there were dozens of steps, behind the steps was a temple with golden walls, there were two beautiful angels outside the hall, the contours of the cheeks were very perfect, Du Dian glanced at it, and a thought came to his heart, could this angel sculpture be carved in imitation of the Aragami?

He glanced twice, and when he saw Losick's invitation to get out of the car, he led Helissa out of the carriage, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I didn't expect the temple to be so close to the city gate. ”

Losik said with a smile: "My lord, there are several temples in the royal capital, and this is a branch of the temple, but if you want to inquire about any news, you can also inquire here." ”

Dudian nodded, and walked up the steps with Losik, and at the other end of the steps, three or two people came up one after another, wearing armor and having an extraordinary temperament, and it seemed that they had also come to the temple to do business.

Losik was already surprised by this, and led Dudian to the temple, and took the initiative to help Dudian push open the revolving door and walk in.

The inside of the temple is full of gold, and it is a bit modest to say that it is splendid, as if the entire temple is made of gold, Du Dian glanced at it, and sighed in his heart, this temple is really rich and oily.

There were quite a few people standing in the hall of the temple, somewhat similar to a bank, with four or five counters, and there was a queue outside.

Du Dian was about to go over to line up, but Luo Xi grabbed Du Dian and said with a smile: "My lord, let's go to the VIP room and rest by the way." ”

Du Dian raised his eyebrows, and then suddenly realized, although he didn't look down on Losick, but the latter was a lord who was not big or small, and his status was still many grades higher than that of ordinary people.

Losic led Dudian and Helisa to a room next to the hall, there was a desk in the room, and behind him sat an old man in a dark red priest's robe, drinking coffee, seeing Losic and Dudian coming in, he immediately put down the coffee, got up and said, "This is the VIP room, who are the two?" ”

Losik flipped his hand to a medallion with the same pattern as the flag planted on his estate.

There was a glint in the old man's eyes, and he nodded and smiled: "It turned out to be Lord Losik, who has admired the name for a long time, please take a seat." ”

Losik immediately asked Dudian and Helisa to sit down together, Dudian looked around, and there was a trace of solemnity in his eyes, everything here was too similar to the bank in the old days, he thought that the temple was extremely sacred, but he didn't expect it to be programmed like an office, was this intentional or unintentional? You must know that behind this temple may be the Monster Research Institute, but the headquarters of the Monster Research Institute is in the Kingdom of God, if it is intentional, it means that the things of the old era are not completely annihilated, but in the hands of a few big people in the Kingdom of God!

Seeing that Du Dian was silent, Losik naturally didn't expect that the young man next to him would fly to the distant kingdom of God just because of the environment in front of him, he coughed lightly and said to the old priest, "I want to pre-order the 'Supplicant'." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, he looked at him twice, and said, "The Invoker is at the top of the list of legendary monsters, and it is very valuable, Lord Losik, are you really going to buy it?" ”

As a person who specializes in serving VIPs, the old man of the priest naturally knows something about the various lords, otherwise it is impossible to tell his name just by the family badge of Losik, although he may not remember the appearance, but Losik's name and his information have long been remembered in his heart, he did not expect that with Losik's financial resources, he actually planned to buy the Supplicant, is it a thin handful that is ready to gamble?

Thinking of the several hostile lords that Losik was facing, the old priest's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Losik quietly.

"That's what it means." Losik said, "Can you buy it?" ”

The old priest nodded, "You can buy it, but you also know the value of the invoker, I will say more, instead of buying the invoker, it is better to buy other legendary marks, you can buy ten, although the invoker has great potential, but it is impossible to defeat ten in the same rank, right, and if you want to buy the invoker, you have to take out your lord's title deed, as well as the lord's contract." ”

Hearing him mention the lord contract, Losik's heart ached, buying the supplicant is not only something that can be bought for money, but also has to divide half of his lord contract and a lot of territory, once the lord contract is signed, the area of his territory will not change, but his rights will be reduced by half, and even be completely replaced by the temple in the end.

Dudy looked at Losic quietly, he knew the conditions for buying the supplicant, the so-called lord contract, which was equivalent to letting the temple take a stake in Losick's territory, and the shares were equivalent to forty-nine percent, although Losick still had the right to execute and manage, but the temple only needed to use a small means to easily include Losick's territory.

Therefore, ordinary small and medium-sized lords are reluctant to buy supplicants and sign such an unequal treaty with the temple.

Only the big lord, with a wide territory area and a concentration of power, can it be possible to play through the temple and not be taken away by the temple.

The temple relies on the sale of demon marks and holds the lifeblood of all lords, so it can be described as the uncrowned king!

"I do." Although Losik was mentally prepared, but after saying these three words, he still felt a burst of prostration and colic, and when the matter was over, Du Dian patted his ass and left, but the rest of the troubles had to be dealt with by himself, even if Du Dian did not deal with him, he would not have a good time in the future, however, he had no choice but to accept it.

The old man glanced at him, didn't say anything, and said, "Then you pay the deposit first, do you bring the title deed?" ”

"This is a deposit of 100,000 gold coins, and this is the title deed." Losik had already prepared, 100,000 gold coins was a thick stack of golden tickets, equivalent to a year's income in his territory, and this was only a deposit, and when he officially bought it, he still needed to pay 900,000 gold coins!

A single invoker, worth a million gold coins, can almost empty Losik's family.

Seeing that Losik was ready, the old priest didn't say anything, took out the documents from the drawer, and helped Losik go through the pre-order procedures. During the procedure, a lot of documents were required, during which the priest and the old man called several waves of people, including the master of the temple himself, and as a witness, pressed the handprint.

Half an hour passed, and the formalities were finally completed.

The old man of the priest let out a sigh, smiled, and said, "My lord, you can go back and wait now, and in ten days, we will notify you of the result by email." ”

Losik barely squeezed out a smile, put away the paperwork, turned to Dudian and said, "Let's go." ”

Du Dian sat next to him and watched coldly, and when he saw that the matter of purchasing the supplicant was done, he said, "Don't forget about the Polar Ice Worm. "He was now more concerned about the Polar Ice Worm than he was about buying the Invoker.

In Losik's description, he had always had a guess in his heart that the crystal desolate worm he had encountered in the Earth Dragon Cave of the Amelly tribe earlier could be the Polar Ice Worm?

Although the latter is a desolate insect, but Losic didn't also say that the Polar Ice Worm has no other abilities, but it has extremely pure ice energy, and the crystal Desolate Worm was originally frozen in flames, that kind of means has gone beyond the concept of ice, and it is completely impossible to solve with his scientific knowledge, except that it is too big, this thing is completely in line with the image of the Extreme Ice Worm in his mind.

Hearing Du Di'an's words, Losik came to his senses, patted his head, and hurriedly turned his head to the old man and said, "I want to know about the Polar Ice Worm, such as its appearance and living habits. ”

The old man of the priest was stunned, he looked at Du Dian on the side, and then at Losik, he thought that Du Dian was Losik's guard before, but now it seems that Du Di'an's identity is higher?

He glanced at Du Dian slightly, he didn't remember that there was such a number one person, but there were many big people he hadn't seen, so he didn't think much about it, and nodded: "No problem, I'll find it for you." ”

"Thank you." Losik immediately thanked him.

A hint of strange color flashed in Du Di'an's eyes, he didn't expect this old priest to be so direct and didn't make any requests at all.

He thought about it for a while, and slowly relieved in his heart, maybe the temple didn't care about revealing the information of the Polar Ice Worm, once it was obtained by a lord like Losik, it would be a good thing, maybe Losik would sell it to them directly, even if it wasn't sold, most of them would secretly pay attention to Losik's movements, and once Losik could get it, it would not be difficult to snatch it from him.

This is equivalent to a free bounty, so naturally there is no need to hide it.
