"Old fox?"

Ferdinand explains:

"That's a nickname, his real name is Angwa, he was originally appointed by His Majesty as the head of the Wang** Intelligence Department, responsible for monitoring the intelligence inside and outside the Celt, because he was cunning and vigilant, and he was born with white hair, so the noble ministers of the royal capital gave him the nickname of Silver Fox. Because this person has inquired into the private secrets of many nobles, most people are disgusted with him, so they secretly call this intelligence leader the silver fox or the old fox, instead of his name!"

Donald laughed and said, "What an interesting character!"

"Interesting?" Ferdinand laughed, "Donald, you are the first person to say this, but it was only because of him that several nobles were shaken out of scandal and their reputation was ruined, and they had to go into exile to live abroad! ”

"That's also those nobles who have done ugly things themselves, who is to blame? I asked myself if my body was not crooked, and I was not afraid of anything!"

"You don't care, but there is no secret behind the person who can become a nobleman? For a while, the name of the silver fox was almost unheard of in the royal capital, but fortunately, this guy didn't know for what reason, he was removed from his position by His Majesty and exiled to Beijun. It is said that there has been no major action in the past ten years, and everyone thinks that this silver fox is ready to retire in Beijun. However, the news that our Ansel family has received is that this person is still working for His Majesty, and the details will only be known to my mother. ”

"No need, it's enough to know this! I'm working with this old gentleman now, and asking you about this is just to know more about the details of the partners!"

"Cooperation?" Ferdinand wondered.

"I don't have to hide this from you, I guess you will know soon if I don't say it! It's not His Majesty's physical reason, he needs my Moon Essence, so this one came to the door himself!"

Ferdinand immediately understood what was going on, and said, "It seems that our family is still responsible for you! But the medicine you provide can help Your Majesty, and Mother naturally can't bear to let her uncle suffer from that kind of illness!"

Donald was not upset about this.

"It's not a big deal, anyway, I need information about Ungwa, and everyone needs what they need!"

After talking about the deal and the question, Donald thought of the plan in his heart, and said to Ferdinand:

"There is one thing I want to discuss with your family, now I want to ask your opinion first!"

Seeing the solemnity of what Donald said, Ferdinand was also intrigued.

"Please!"

"I have the specific information of an ancient arcane ruin, but I don't have enough people to explore that ruin, so I need two helpers who are at least silver, plus my teacher, I should have the strength to explore that ruin. So please Ferdinand, tell me what you mean, and if you are interested in getting involved in this matter?"

"Ancient Arcane Ruins, what's the situation, can you be sure?"

Ferdinand asked, intrigued.

"I won't be able to explain the exact situation until we start working together, but I can reveal it first, at least it is a relic left by a Grand Arcanist Lord, and what its value is, I think Lady Edvina should be able to know!"

Ferdinand knew he couldn't make a decision, so he immediately asked Donald to take his leave.

Ferdinand was very happy to get two bottles of Moonlight Spirit Wine, which means that if nothing else, he can train at least one mage for the family. Although the Ansel's family has always been sparsely populated, there are still kinship branches with whom they are related. There are only a few descendants of the Celt royal family, but the number of members of the entire royal family is as many as hundreds, which is also a common measure taken by those ancient families to prevent the bloodline from being severed.

If it is not an allusion to Donald's understanding, it is not to put all your eggs in the same basket.

With the power of the Ansel family, it is still very easy to find one or two candidates with mage apprentice talents among the relatives to cultivate, and when the time comes, give them these two bottles of Moonlight Elf Wine, I believe that their potential will be greatly improved.

However, the other proposal Donald made was clearly more important than the Moonshine Elf Wine. So Ferdinand returned to the family without stopping, ready to hurry to consult with his father and mother.

After Ferdinand left, Donald went to see his teacher.

Compared with Ferdinand's cautious attitude towards not leaking his words, for his teacher, Donald took out the ancient map without concealment, and explained the information he had found and sorted out to Messer one by one.

When the old mage learned this information, he immediately praised Donald:

"You didn't choose to explore alone, and you were right to do so! The ruins of ancient arcanists are generally very dangerous places, and even the golden powerhouses would not dare to enter them alone. As for the Ansel......"

"Teacher, you don't have to worry, their family's reputation can still be guaranteed, and at present, the friendship with me is not bad, as long as the division of interests is fair, there should be no big problems with you accompanying me on a trip!"

"Well, since you think so, then it's decided!But that's the remnant of the Great Arcanist Lord, maybe it's a great existence like Sky City, and the benefits are too huge, so it's better to be careful, and when the time comes, we'll bring Chris and them with us, and the combined strength of the three of them will not be less than two silver warriors, if the head of the Ansel family, who is the Golden Sword Saint, doesn't come forward, we can basically maintain the same strength as them." ”

Donald nodded in agreement, and then talked to his teacher about the Silver Moon Coin of the Ancient Arcane Empire that he had auctioned.

The Silver Moon Coin had run out of energy, and after getting his hands on it, Donald pumped mana into it every day, and it took a full month to recharge, and he could activate the spells in it at any time. This is also the reason why Donald doesn't want to waste energy reserves, otherwise he can directly use the magic core or elemental spar to charge it, and it can be replenished in a short time.

After being scanned and detected by the Book of Truth, the accompanying arcane gave him a big surprise. It turned out to be a spell cleavage that had been lost for thousands of years!

With this powerful arcane body, Donald has even more confidence in his trip to the ruins of the ancient Grand Arcanist.

The function of Cleavage is to remove the effects of magic, including spells, enchantments, magic circles, etc., it can easily destroy powerful magic items that do not exceed the gold level, and the gold rank items will also lose most of their effects when facing the cleavage. There's even a 1% chance that artifacts and anti-magic fields will work.

Because it is a support skill, Cleavage cannot attack the creature itself, but it can be used to break down the enemy's defenses and achieve victory in this way.

It is said that there is also a kind of Great Cracking Technique, which is a spell that transcends the ninth level and belongs to the legendary realm, even if the true god is hit, it will disintegrate several of its own defenses. In the mortal realm, legendary spells are one of the only few powers that can harm true gods.

"It is precisely because I discovered that this silver moon coin is attached to the cleavage technique that I have confidence in this relic operation, so I will make an invitation to the Ansel family, otherwise without the gold power, I am afraid it will be difficult to break the defensive barrier set by the Grand Arcanist Lord. ”

Messer was really relieved when he heard this, and it seemed that his disciple was not the kind of reckless person who acted recklessly without being sure.

Returning from the teacher, Donald had a new idea. The idea was derived from the Silver Moon Coins. After learning about the ancient arcane civilization and the era of the ancient magic empire through the collection of the mage club, Donald was very yearning for the strength and prosperity of these two civilizations, and this time he felt the magic and convenience of the ancient arcane currency, but he also had the idea of minting magic coins unique to his own territory.

At least the great nobles above the earl are qualified to mint their own currency, because in the era of ancient human city-states, there was no state at that time, and the earliest aristocratic title was the earl, and the earl at that time was recognized as the monarch of one side, and the status was equivalent to the current grand duke and king.

Although there is no law in this era that explicitly prohibits nobles from minting currency, it is because of the excellent quality of the common currency of the kingdom and the high cost of private coinage, so no one will mint gold and silver coins to issue in their own territory.

However, there are also many nobles who like to collect gold and silver, and then melt them into gold and silver coins, and put their own marks on them, and then collect them. But that's all private collections, not as currency in circulation.

For this reason, Donald deliberately sent two magic coins from the Bannai Empire period borrowed from his teacher to the Book of Truth to scan and analyze.

The first is the most common Bannai magic coin, with gold as the main body, mixed with one hundredth of blue gold, in which a trace amount of Mithril draws a magic circle is a magic storage magic circle, and only a single function is to store the caster's mana.

Blue gold is the finest carrier of magic ever discovered, capable of storing most types of magical energy almost non-destructively. The second magic coin with a yield of Mithril is a defensive equipment with increased Mithril content, in addition to the basic magic magic array, it also attaches a spell array of fireball spells inside, as long as the energy is full, a mage apprentice can also trigger this magic coin to send out a three-level attack spell that can only be mastered by a high-level mage of black iron.

After extracting the structure and characteristics of the magic circle in the two magic coins, the Book of Truth can also manifest this magic coin, and give it the ability to various spells below level 3 for which it already has detailed information.

It can even be combined with the principle of the arcane circle in that Silver Moon Coin to create a magic coin with lower attributes than the Arcane Coin but much stronger than the Bannai Magic Coins.

However, the key materials for crafting magic coins, such as Adamantite and Mithril, are very difficult to manifest out of thin air, as they require a large amount of energy reserves to do so. Comparing the cost of making magic coins, Donald found that the cost would be far greater than the gain, so the idea was put on hold for the time being.

"It seems that I still have to find rare magic metal minerals to implement it smoothly! I really hope that there can be a magic metal mine in my territory as well!"

Donald sighed unconsciously, but he didn't know that his idea would come true soon after.
