Chapter 221: The Rough Stone (I)

[Hint, the main line behind.] It's still related to the twenty-four temples of the goddess Myers.,I won't write about continental strife.,After all, it's a story of magicians.,If the pace has been slow lately.,Apologize to everyone.,I'll try to return to the original rhythm this week.]

"My grandfather had more than forty ships, the largest of which was about the size of your battleship. ”

Aesop's words startled Salin. A pirate can have forty ships, which is also a lot of force in Qin Yin. Is there forty warships in Lianyun City? I'm afraid not.

"More than forty boats, how did you degenerate into a mage and not inherit the family business?" Salin couldn't help but ask.

He wasn't joking, if he could inherit forty boats back then, he wouldn't have chosen to be a mage.

A fisherman's broken boat is also worth a few hundred gold coins, and those who can be a pirate ship are worth more than 10,000 gold coins. If there were 400,000 gold coins, the little beggar back then would definitely not set foot on the path of magic.

"Well, my grandfather had a good relationship with several powerful pirate gangs, and gradually threatened the security of dozens of countries. Therefore, the emperors of these countries invited the Assassin League to deal with them. ”

Salin felt that what he had heard was extremely fantastical, and the Emperor had gone to ask the Assassins to deal with the pirates, if Qin Yin's nobles heard this. Don't laugh off your big teeth yet.

Aesop continued with some grief and indignation: "These emperors, they were the ones who made my grandfather a pirate in the first place, and then they found someone from the Assassin League to do it, it is simply not credible. ”

Aesop's words made Salin a little confused, it turned out that those emperors had hired people to be pirates.

In fact, this is not surprising in the East China Sea, where there are too many countries, and conquest between each other will greatly hurt their vitality, and in the end other countries will take advantage of it. Therefore, the emperors would create pirates to harass other countries, rob other countries' goods, and enrich their own treasury.

Some pirates are so powerful that they will even destroy their own emperor and then establish a state.

"My grandfather had a secret agent in the palace, and after getting the news, he fled directly with his most intimate subordinates and lived in seclusion in another country. Aesop began to gush about the family's glorious deeds.

Salin hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Speaking of the important thing, how can I go to the East China Sea?"

"Ahem......" Aesop was a little embarrassed, quickly closed the topic, and said: "If you want to cross the Sea of Storms, the key is to change different routes in different seasons. Even then, there is a certain amount of risk. The expeditionary force lost one-fifth of its ships, and only a few of them were sunk by the monster attack. Each formation will have a temporary flagship, an alchemical telescope on this battleship, to record everything along the way. All the information is stored in the gem at the heart of the telescope. Upon arrival at their destination, the gems are replaced. ”

Doesn't that mean that he didn't say anything? Salin dismantled the alchemy telescope in the East China Sea and found nothing useful.

"However, after years of use, some of the substance of the large alchemy telescope and the base set with the gems have been assimilated with the gemstones, and as long as the base is not damaged, I can recover the information in it. Of course, there can be no magic images, but you can judge the time, the direction, and the angle of the starry sky. This was my grandfather's masterpiece. ”

"Isn't he a pirate?"

"Of course, he was a pirate first, then a magician. "Aesop is a little long-winded.

"It's going to be a lot of trouble. Salin didn't want to dwell on the useless topic, and he keenly captured the key.

"It's a bit of a hassle, and this time we set off from the East China Sea, and it took us five months to arrive, and we actually changed routes several times. If you want to restore the information on the inlay base, you need to use the Karma formula...... It's what you call the formula of Figaro magic. ”

Salin's face did not change, he had mastered the way to calculate quickly. But for other magicians, recovering magical information with Figaro's magic formula is a huge amount of work.

Anyway, Isolt didn't know this, so she could use this reason to squeeze more news out of him. Salin then said, "Five months of magical information, if it is restored, it will take at least fifteen years. Do you think I have a lot of time?"

Salin was right, restoring magical information would take at least six times as long to record. Of course, this is a case where a person calculates independently. If you can gather more mages who have mastered Figaro's magic formula, the speed will be much faster. This kind of calculation does not have to be done by one person alone.

However, the mages who have mastered the magic formula of Figaro have reached at least level six. Under normal circumstances, there are basically not so many great magicians doing this kind of time-consuming and energy-consuming thing for one person at the same time.

This calculation, apart from a little mental power, does little to help the magic itself. It was worse than killing a group of people who were about to advance to the mage to spend their energy on this.

Boring data restoration is only done by low-level mages, but in that case, the number of low-level mages needed is a terrifying number, and even Rex can't provide so many low-level mages.

"No, no, no, Lord Salin, listen to me, this kind of calculation can be achieved with the help of the magic array. ”

"Magic Array, isn't that core-consuming?" Salin asked with a smile.

"It doesn't have to be a magic core, you can also use the original stone to drive the magic array, especially this low-level magic array. ”

"Rough stones?"

"A calcite that can only replace a low-level magic core. I know there's a vein nearby, and the ships you've sunk are here to occupy it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought so many magicians. ”

Saleen's face immediately became serious, this news was too important to buy Aesop's life. In the Myers Continent, the role of the magic core is irreplaceable, and although the original stone that Aesop said can only replace the magic core below the three poles, it is precisely this low-level magic core that is the most lacking for mages.

The number of high-level magic cores is scarce, but the number of people who use them is also very small, and there are not too many magicians in the entire continent. However, the low-level magic core is different, Qin Yin mage is estimated to be more than 100,000, and every low-level mage is eager to obtain a low-level magic core, not a high-level magic core.

The people of the East Sea have found a replacement! And there's a vein near Metatrin City!

This is not just a matter of getting rich, since the people of the East China Sea have discovered this vein, they will obviously occupy it. If you want to own the original stone, you must first fight with the expeditionary force in the East China Sea.

This news is far more important than the route in the East China Sea. If Salin wants to send the fleet to the East China Sea, he must prepare for at least ten years, but this rough stone will immediately detonate the war.

"These boats, were they photographed by the coalition forces to find the rough stones?" Salin asked repeatedly.

"Not really. Aesop didn't dare to hide it and told Salen the truth.

It turned out that in the East China Sea Expeditionary Force. I've been arguing over who should be the manager. The only people who know about this vein are the royalty of one of the countries. This royal family controlled more than thirty ships in the fleet, brought a large number of mages, and originally planned to come to mine privately.

This time, the excuse for the six warships to stay away from Lianyun City was to find the lost ships, that is, the twelve ships that Salin had killed. Because there were a lot of supplies on those twelve ships, especially magic chariots. So this move did not attract the attention of other royal families.

"How long can this secret be hidden?" Salin looked at Aesop, trying to find out something in his eyes.

Aesop calculated in her mind before she replied, "I'm not sure, you sank the warship sent by the crown prince, but you ran away with one." He might have known about it in a week. But even if he knew, he wouldn't preach it. With his character, he will choose to ask for a piece of land in Phoenix when the situation is stable, and cut this vein from the land occupied by others. If he continues to send warships, it will affect his position in the coalition forces. ”

Salin thought to himself, even if he sent troops over immediately, I would not be able to let him get this vein. The role of low-level magic cores is too great, and the ones used in the war are basically low-level magic cores.

"Aesop, I think you should stay with me, you tell me the news, and you will definitely die if you go back. Instead of immediately asking where the vein was, Salin reassured Aesop.

Aesop looked a little more relaxed, and Saleen said this, ready to let him go.

"Lord Sarin, I am willing to sign a contract. Aesop said sincerely, although his sincerity did not have much credibility, but the contract signed this time had nothing to do with the transaction. He will follow Salin in the future, and he will no longer be a free mage. Only in this way will Saleen protect him, otherwise the deal will be completed, and Saleen will kick him away and leave him to fend for himself.

Isolt couldn't go back to the coalition camp, let alone the East China Sea, and his eyes were blackened on the Myers continent, and Saleen didn't take him in, and his fate can be imagined. Although his lingua franca is also relatively clear, the war has been breaking out for a while, and as long as the Qin Yin people within the scope of the war can hear that his accent is from abroad.

What's more, Qin Yin people don't speak the lingua franca, but like to speak the language of their own country, and it is impossible for him to survive in Qin Yin.

Neris stood beside Salin, and her admiration for her master grew. No matter how vicious he is, he cannot be like his master. Squeeze out the opponent's secret little by little, and you can't let the opponent follow it willingly.

It's time to get the coordinates of the demon plane as soon as possible, and the master's career is getting bigger and bigger, and it's a little uncontrollable. If you don't have enough manpower, you won't even have to ride Rex on your head in the future, which is absolutely not good.

Thinking of this, Nellis suddenly said: "Master, it is still a little inconvenient for Aesop to follow you, and it will cause you trouble." ”

Isolt was startled, he was just a matter of life and death, so even though he saw two beautiful women, he didn't think much of it. After Saleen agreed to take him in, he glanced at Nellis a few times, and Nellis suddenly said this, actually trying to prevent Saleen from taking him in, which almost frightened him.

"Your Excellency!"

Aesop wanted to say something, but Saleen waved his hand to stop him, and then asked Nellis, "What's your opinion?"

"Just let him follow me, I'll be of some use. Nellis said softly, Isolt was extremely uneasy, follow Salin, Salin will protect his safety, follow this woman, she has not even cultivated sword qi......

Isolt looked at Saleen with brown eyes pleadingly, and Saleen thought for a moment and nodded.

"Okay, let him follow you, and you will choose the prisoners I capture in the future. ”
