Chapter 221: Tracing the Remnants of the Enemy
The huge study fell into an embarrassing silence, and the staff who usually talked a lot were silent, unconsciously leaning towards the lord's place, which was due to the fear of someone, and at the same time exposed their weakness in relying on the strong to dare to speak.

The chandelier hanging on the ceiling, sprinkled the thin light of the candles, casting their shadows on the wall, even if Lu Bin, who was wearing the ring of qi, had no intention of making a move, the study still set off a slight air flow out of thin air, blowing through the candles of the chandelier, and the orange-red flames swayed slightly.
The shadows cast on the walls, when they were out of sight with their backs to their owners, swayed from side to side, back and forth, like lambs that could not help but tremble in the presence of carnivorous beasts.
Feeling the panic and uneasiness in the hearts of his staff, Lord Nell Austin also had a little headache, although there were still many ambushes lurking inside and outside the study, he still didn't dare to expect them to stop or threaten the "legendary mage" on the other side.
After the contest just now, Lu Bin occupied half of the study alone, and although he stayed quietly in place, no one dared to despise this "Lord Reiz" who created the foundation of Rushing City.
"Ahh
Lu Bin sat up straight very cooperatively, and in the eyes of the staff, it was undoubtedly a reaction of "owing" to the salute, and this simple action made them deeply encouraged.
"The slave hunters who came from afar, who came completely to Riverwater, are now stationed in Blackwater Town, and as the lord of this place, I hope it is best not to destroy the core area of the increasingly prosperous territory. Lord Rez, please consider my difficulties. ”
Lu Bin pondered for a moment and nodded lightly: "Yes, as long as they leave Blackwater Town, I will deal with these people in the wild." ”
Lord Nell Austin received the promise he wanted, and bowed his head slightly: "Thank you!"
"You're welcome, after all, His Excellency Austin has also contributed a lot of effort to the establishment of Riverrun, otherwise the members of the Porters' Guild would not have left Blackwater so easily, I know all these hidden secrets. If it weren't for your favor, I wouldn't have spoken so well if I had just offended. ”
As soon as he said that, Lord Nell Austin felt relieved, feeling that the "legendary mage" was not a difficult person to get along with, on the contrary, as long as he followed the existing rules, he was still an easy "Excellency" to deal with.
"Your Excellency, Riverrun has produced many never-before-seen commodities under your leadership, and my staff are very interested in this, and hope that they will be able to communicate in all aspects for the sake of good neighborliness. ”
Lu Bin had an indispensable attitude towards this, remembering that the various farming matters at the beginning of spring next year were related to whether Rushing City could really gain a foothold in the future, so he nodded lightly, but he still added in time.
"The emerging industries in Rushing City are still in their infancy, and the production capacity is a little tight, and the iron furnace fort mineral salt, refined iron armor, as well as the maple sugar and soap of the industry under my name, are quite expensive, almost equal to silver, how much can Blackwater Town eat, I still have questions about this. ”
Deep in the interior of the north, the daily salt of ordinary people has always been as expensive as gold, and Lord Nell Austin's heart became extremely hot when he heard that the "legendary mage" was acting as the agent of the salt of Ironforge Castle.
"Your Excellency Rez, I think that Blackwater and Riverrun City support each other, complement each other's advantages, join forces to open up the future, and engage in more lucrative commercial trade is the right way to become strong. ”
Lu Bin knew that as a nobleman, especially the emerging pioneer lord, he was not an ordinary person, and now when he heard that Lord Nell Austin had given up his previous suspicions and wanted to win over Riverrun City to form a business alliance at the expense of his identity, he secretly praised in his heart, and there were really few stupid people in the world at the moment of interest.
So he nodded slightly, either in agreement or acquiescence, "I deeply sympathize with this!"
Lu Bin sighed in his heart: There are no eternal friends or enemies in the world, only eternal interests.
The two pioneer lords with close interests chose to shake hands and make peace, and the suffocating atmosphere in the lord's study suddenly melted, and the embarrassment of one person against a group of people on the scene was also quietly resolved.
"For the specifics of the cooperation, I will let the administrative officer under Olik Tyrese and the actuarial accountant be in charge of negotiating. ”
Lord Nell Austin was slightly stunned when he heard this, obviously he didn't expect that the "Legendary Mage" would be able to summon the people of the "Son of Thor" in such a casual tone.
"It is rumored that Lord Reze and Oryk Tyrese have forged a friendship of steel in the battles of the Shadows, but their real relationship is really as outsiders say, seeking a way to live together peacefully in the midst of constant differences in political philosophies. ”
The Lord of Blackwater immediately came to his senses, "My staff will be in charge of leading this matter, they are all the people I trust the most, and my interests are closely related. ”
Lu Bin nodded lightly, and then slowly stood up: "Then I will rest assured! This meeting is fruitful, and it will only waste each other's time to talk about it any longer, and there is another point, the dark wizard who escaped has stopped, it should be their nest *******Lord Austin saw that the other party had made up his mind, and also stood up: "Your Excellency Rez, what are you going to do?"
Lu Bin had already turned around, and was about to activate the snake staff mark on his chest, when he heard this, he looked back sideways, and replied in a light tone: "What else can I do?" of course to deal with the dark wizard who offended me!"
The staff members who stayed in the study couldn't help but shudder, what "Lord Rez" said just now was as easy as going to the market to buy vegetables and prepare dinner, and judging from the undisguised murderous intentions, this "legendary mage" is still a cautious, grudgeful, and will not be tolerant of those who offend him......
"Aristocrats!"
The staff looked at each other, and they all saw each other's worries, and it was estimated that the "mad wizard" who had been with each other for a while might not be able to escape the fate of death this time.
What a pity, why would a brilliant spellcaster loyal to His Excellency be a dark wizard in the underworld who is known for his evil and madness?
Lu Bin ignored other people's opinions, activated the snake staff mark, and made the unique ability of the travel realm, infiltrate the shadow plane, and then with the assistance of the ring of qi, he drove the whirlwind away and chased straight in the direction of the dark wizard's escape.
In the huge study, a large living person quietly appeared, and then suddenly disappeared in an instant, this ability to come and go freely and unrestricted, which greatly intrigued Lord Nell Austin, and his staff looked at each other.
Tigus Richie, the sorcery advisor to the Lord of Blackwater and a prophet with the Crystal of Knowledge, pushed the door in from outside: "We all have to admit that Lord Rez does have the strength of a legendary mage, and just now he used the power of the realm to leave, and I didn't even find any traces of casting spells. ”
Lord Nell Austin nodded lightly in agreement, "Lucky lady is on board! If this official meeting had not been arranged, and the temper and character of Lord Reze had not been clarified, I can guarantee that there would have been a conflict in the future." ”
After speaking, he looked around and saw the evasive eyes of the trusted staff, and knew that they must not have been at ease before.
"The mad wizard has been forced to leave, Mr. Richie, Wuthering Heights' spell protection depends on you. ”
Tiggs Rich, the prophet, bowed and saluted: "I can't do anything about Lord Rez's realm power, but he uses the plane to move into the study, and I can place a stressful dimensional anchor nearby, at least it will prevent him from entering the villa without common sense." ”
Lord Nell Austin sat down satisfied, feeling much more relaxed, and no longer threatened by a thorn in his back: "Then everything is up to you, Master Richie! ”
The lord's staff felt the same way about the prophet's assurance, and they immediately expressed their full cooperation, and the deployment of various materials and manpower would be prioritized.
Tiggs Ritchie smiled with satisfaction and retired from the lord's study, and without the mad wizard crowding out resources, his good times had finally arrived.
After returning to his room, the prophet was still a little happy in his heart: "I'll just say! Your Excellency Reez's variable, if it can be used properly, is definitely a good source. ”
At the same time, Lu Bin had already jumped out of the shadow plane and appeared in the wilderness far from the razorhill hills, speeding away in the snow at a speed as fast as a galloping horse.
The distance between him and his prey was rapidly closing, after all, the fleeing dark wizard did not know that his location had been revealed, and Lu Bin had firmly grasped the whereabouts of the half-elf dark wizard "Hindlin Astrology" through the Book of Travel Mages.
In the vast desert wasteland to the east of Blackwater Town, in the deepest no-man's land, in a strange caterpillar-shaped building crawling on the ground, the dark wizard who escaped stealthily is mixing potions and dealing with the multiple open wounds caused by the explosion of the "Confinement" force field on his body.
The healing potion extracted from the demon's blood has a deep purple liquid light rippling on the surface, which can not only heal the wound, but also make up for the loss of magic power from casting the "Negative Energy Shockwave" and the "Soul Seeking Spell" one after another.
Suddenly, a cold gust of cold wind blew in, which made the seriously injured Hindlin astrologer couldn't help but shiver, the dark wizard who was not afraid of the cold was afraid of the wind, and the phenomenon of violating "common sense" made him stunned.
"Abnormal, it's a danger to us, the cold wind is a warning sign, is it that His Excellency Rez is chasing after us?"
The dark wizard hurriedly lifted the potion bottle, poured himself a few sips of healing potion, and as soon as the injury healed, he took the notes and materials refined by the magic essence, cast a high-level magic, and fled into the hidden valley where the king of dark wizards was located.
