Chapter 180: Nellis's Bewitchment (Part II)

In the northern winter, the sun rises very late. When Saleen got up, it wasn't too dark. The shadow of the temple is stretched long, and hundreds of undead are hidden in the shadows, allowing the people in the temple to sleep peacefully.

Saleen stretched and stood in front of the window. There was not a trace of snow in the square, and the huge magic array exuded a faint elemental power on the white ground.

A slender figure came from the east and stepped up the steps of the temple.

Elaine: What is she doing so early?

Behind the pillars of the temple, two swordsmen appeared and stopped in front of Elaine. Elaine whispered something, and the two swordsmen shook their heads and did not let Elaine enter the temple. Salin thought for a moment, returned to the bedside, and said to the Voice Magic Array, "Let her in." ”

The temple was now built on four floors, and Salin's dwelling was at the top, occupying the first floor. On the entire floor, there were only two people, Salin, and Neris.

Neris had already gotten up, she ran to Salin's room, changed Salin's clothes, and asked, "Master." Why so early?"

"Elaine is here. ”

"What is she doing here?" said Neris as she helped Salin fasten her belt, looking surprised.

Salin groaned for a moment and said, "You seem to know she's coming." ”

Neris shrugged, no matter what she reacted to, she couldn't escape Sarin's sense of contract. However, Salin didn't care what she did, changed her clothes, and took Naris to the second floor of the temple.

The mages who lived on the third floor of Shreg Island, most of the mages had not yet gotten up, and Saleen did not alarm anyone, only Zola noticed Saleen's movement and followed Saleen to the second floor.

Saleen did not refuse, and Zola could take his place in Schika's place when Shimka was away. And Zola's swordsmanship is obviously very clever, in terms of strength alone, Zola is not as good as Sika, but in terms of combat skills, Sika is too different. Under normal circumstances, Schika is clearly no match for Zola.

There are more rooms on the second floor, but they are still empty, this temple is for the followers of Saleen, and a huge dimensional teleportation array will be built underground.

"Saleen. Elaine bumped into Saleen in the hallway, her face flushed. Salin nodded, pointed to the door, and walked into the room first. This room is used by Saleen for refining equipment, and it has a large space and a large number of alchemy materials are piled up. However, Salin is not good at using magic arrays for alchemy, and does not create alchemy platforms.

He came to a table and sat down. "Nellis, bring a chair for Elaine." ”

Elaine sat down nervously, thinking about it all night, but she didn't know how to speak.

Neris took out the delicate stove beside her, poured magic powder into the groove, lit it, and boiled water to make tea. Looking at Nellis's natural and smooth movements, Elaine's heart calmed down. This is the first time I have been tempted by a man, and I can't just hold back. Thinking of this, Elaine spoke: "Salin, I heard that you need a large number of demon cores?"

"Yes, Nellis told you?"

"Well, I heard that you can also go to sea this season, it's December, and if you go to the Frozen Sea, you'll be back in March. Elaine looked at Salin's blue eyes, and suddenly became calm.

"So that's the case, Elaine, you're not short of money now, are you?" asked Salin with a smile.

"How is there no shortage, if according to your and Aini's plan. I won't be able to get financial support from my family in the future. Only then did Elaine remember that even Saleen did not lack magic cores, and she was also in urgent need of money. By selling the route of the Frozen Sea yourself, the family will not continue to support their adventures.

"Well, Zola, go and call Aini. Salin said nothing else, but told Zola to go.

Elaine didn't expect Salin to ask any questions, and directly agreed to the matter. She also thought that it would be difficult to convince Saleen to go to sea.

As the people in the temple got up, Nellis walked out of the door and whispered orders for breakfast to be delivered directly here. Salin poured tea for Elaine and said, "I still have two warships to use, but I can only go south. You can't go to the Frozen Sea. This time, I will provide a special boat, and you can't take anyone with you. Would you like to?"

Elaine hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Salin said: "It's the same with Aini, we will sign a contract in a while, and we will mention this, except for my people, you two can only go with yourself." When summer comes, I'll organize a fleet of expeditions, and then I won't have to do that. ”

Salin made it clear first that his turtle alchemy ship needs to be kept secret for the time being, although sooner or later this thing will be known, but if there is a naval battle in the future, he will still have a certain advantage before the enemy knows that he has such a ship. If the Turtle Alchemy Ship wants to attack the enemy, it will also be within the attack range of the Magus. Saleen had to be cautious.

He himself planned to go to the Frozen Sea first, there was a turtle alchemy ship, and he was not afraid of icebergs. If the Turtle Alchemy Ship does not fly fast, at a normal speed, it will not be damaged even if it hits the iceberg head-on. The magic compass from Elaine's wreck had been installed on the ship, and Salin had been prepared for a long time, waiting to go to sea.

The construction of the city requires a large number of magic cores, and almost every building has to draw magic circles, which was unimaginable before, but now with the three kings as coolies, Saleen immediately raised the specifications of the city's defense.

Normally, his city only needed two swordsman battalions, but it was an isolated city, and in the event of a war, Saleen did not have any reinforcements, so he had to expand the size of his army and arm the city to the teeth.

Before the arrival of the mages of Shreg Island, Saleen was on his own. The magic cannon dismantled from the Second Dynasty warship also consumes a large amount of magic cores. If he didn't go to the Frozen Sea, he would only have to go to Alchemy City to purchase a sufficient number of demon cores. Salin didn't want to go to Alchemy City now, that place, it felt too dangerous for him.

Aini arrived quickly, and the door to the alchemy room was shut, leaving only five people in the room. Salin, Zola, Neris, Aini, and Elaine. Salin took out the prepared contract and laid it out on the table, one for each person.

Elaine was suddenly a little depressed when she saw the contract that Salin had prepared, it seemed that if she didn't bring it up, Saleen would also discuss with her about going to the Frozen Sea immediately.

Ani looked at the words on the contract carefully, and the contract didn't move anything. It's just that everything about this trip is strictly regulated to be kept secret.

Not many people know about the existence of the Rock Turtle Alchemy Ship, and the mages on Shreg Island are only known to Truman, Daniel, and Rex. The Three Kings knew, but had become a controlled minion.

"Well, do you agree?"

Zola didn't say anything, just picked up the magic pen and wrote his name on the contract. The contract burned itself and turned into a cloud of smoke.

Aini smiled, and the spiritual imprint was directly applied, and his contract burned clean.

Elaine patiently read the contract, and the contract she gave her also included a part about the revenue share of the expedition. Here, she and Aini each take 20%, Salin takes 30%, and finally 30% goes to the city's treasury.

Saleen herself also left a spiritual imprint on the contract, and Elaine saw that Saleen had also signed the contract, so she had to write down her name. Nellis didn't have a contract, but when Elaine signed the contract, a magic circle lit up between the five of them, and the light flashed, and the contract officially took effect.

"Okay, when I'm ready, I'll leave at noon, and you go back and arrange your men. During the time we were away, they had to follow orders. ”

As he spoke, there was a knock on the door. Aini withdrew the mute barrier, and Daniel said outside the door, "My lord, Sika is back. ”

"Huh?" Salin jumped to his feet and rushed straight to the door, saying to the man behind him, "Go get busy, see you at noon at the port." ”

Elaine was stunned, she hadn't known Saleen for a long time, but she had never seen him so excited, even out of shape. She asked Neris suspiciously, "Who is Sika?"

She didn't react because the name was somewhat androgynous.

"Well, you'll find out soon. Nellis said through gritted teeth. This guy is back, and the master is happy to be like this. It seems that Elaine's affairs can't be solved.

Saleen rushed out of the temple in a puff of smoke, his physical fitness was close to that of a sword master, Daniel couldn't catch up with him behind, he could only shout: "My lord, they are coming here!"

Salin didn't listen to Daniel, and after a long separation, he realized now that he missed Sika very much. No wonder I haven't been interested in doing anything lately, so I can only refine weapons and armor for the swordsmen of Tryg Island every day, which is boring.

Black clouds spread directly around Sarah's body, and Salin soared into the air and flew towards the west of the city. Even the undead who were busy building houses felt the changes that had taken place in the sky, and Saleen's spirit fluctuated violently, and he did not hide it, and his speed instantly increased to the fastest.

Shika is back!

Salin only felt warm in his heart, he had never felt this way, and the only thing he could compare with was probably the moment when he reunited with Jason. But that feeling was too complicated and not as straightforward as it is now. Saleen just wanted to see Sika as soon as possible, his cold vision turned on, and he surveyed downward.

In the distance, a huge number of troops rushed from the west of the city to the center of the city, and Salin sensed that there were at least more than 2,000 people! These were all brought back by Sika? Salin made a brief observation, and sure enough, they were all Caucasians. A simple face, helping the old and the young. Everyone carries rudimentary weapons. Didn't you ask Rex to send gold coins last time?

Saleen didn't continue to think, he swooped down directly from the sky, and he had already seen Schika's figure.

Airplanes!

The air shook violently, and Saleen felt like his eardrums were about to burst. A huge club swept towards him.

"Sika, it's me!"

"I know. Sika's club didn't stop, and Saleen quickly unleashed a string of small water-streaked shields. There were one popping sound, and Saleen turned in the air and landed on the ground. The twelve shields of the water pattern were all broken by a single stick of Sika.

"How's it going, Salin, I'm improving?" Schika looked at Saleen with a smile, holding her stick in her hand. Those black eyes were incomparably pure, reflecting the snow in the distance.
