"Your Excellency, your order includes ten large mage tower energy storage element pools, two sets of advanced alchemy equipment, a complete set of tools for a large workshop, a space stabilization device for building a permanent portal, a special coating material for the blasting room that is enough to counteract the destructive power of the magic of the nine rings, the high-grade humus and some magic plant seeds used in the Arcane Garden, a set of secret door locks, observation eyes, anti-stealth and alarm systems, and finally four small elemental plane interfaces, all of which have been installed according to your requirements......"

At about eight o'clock in the morning the next day, the masked mage under Zeranora came to the door with someone to deliver everything and asked his men to complete the installation and commissioning in the shortest possible time.

With these things, the entire mage tower can really be put into operation.

Although this mage was curious, why Zuo Si would order the energy storage element pool of ten large mage towers in one go.

You must know that if you want to fill a pool of such elements, you need to at least continuously draw energy from the surrounding environment and the magic net, and store energy for two or three months without using it at all.

Generally speaking, having one such elemental pool would be enough to sustain the daily use of a dozen or twenty mages plus a hundred apprentices.

Even a place like the Masked Mage's Guild headquarters has only two large elemental pools installed.

More is a waste.

Of course, the masked mage didn't know that the inside of the walls of the tower built by Zuo Si was full of "energy-absorbing circles" carved everywhere from another world.

The speed at which it absorbs energy is several times or even more than a dozen times that of the ordinary mage tower, and the shroud directly covers the entire Ascaltra.

Draw arcane energy from the web;

Hydro energy can be drawn from rivers and oceans;

From the earth beneath your feet, you can draw earth elemental energy;

Wind elemental energy can be drawn from the sky overhead;

Positive energy can be drawn from sunlight;

Negative energy can be drawn from the cemetery not far away;

Finally, open a permanent portal to the dragon's lair, draw fire elemental energy from the hot magma, and then draw natural energy from the surrounding forest, and the entire mage tower can obtain all the energy attributes.

This point is very important to Zuo Si, who is a traveling mage.

And he also plans to use his creator's ability to directly awaken the Mage Tower into a thinking intelligent tower.

Later, with the Mage Tower as the center, it continued to expand deep underground with the help of sewers that extend in all directions.

It's a pity that the masked mage in front of him didn't know these plans, and beckoned to his subordinates behind him.

Immediately after, a young man dressed as an apprentice pulled open the black cloth covering the carriage next to him, revealing several huge cages in an instant.

Some of the cages contained a dozen wolf and winter wolf cubs, and they were making a humming cry;

Some of them are equipped with some small digging insects that are still fully grown, and they look unusually fierce;

Some pretend to turn themselves into various forms from time to time.,The body looks like a black cat's juvenile deformed cat pet.,

Some of them are filled with magic bats from different attributes of the elemental plane, and they huddle together and keep arguing and fighting; …

Even in the final cage, there is a tree spirit with a beautiful appearance, and a large tree that is closely connected to her life.

Apparently, the poor creature had been captured by the masked mages.

With the tree there, she couldn't even run away.

Because once the dryad leaves the tree, which is closely connected to his life, he will soon become weak and eventually die.

Seeing such a battle, Zuo Si, who hadn't closed his eyes all night, rubbed his dry eyes, and immediately asked in a tone that was not very sure: "Is this ......?"

"This is a small gift that Madame Zelanora has asked me to pass on to you in private. She hopes to build a good personal friendship with you. The mage replied with a smile on his face.

"It is an honour to have the friendship of Ms. Zelanora. I would like to express my gratitude to her, and by the way, congratulate her on her official promotion to the top of the masked mage. ”

Regarding the olive branch thrown by this moon elf mage, Zuo Si chose to accept it without thinking.

After all, the Masked Mage Guild is not a shadow thief, and it is basically composed of some typical "selfish" arcane spellcasters, although it cannot be said that there is no belief in gods, but it can barely reach the level that the soul will not be taken to the wall after death.

It is difficult for a mage to become a qualified believer, this is the common knowledge of the entire Faren Continent.

Therefore, there was no conflict of interest between the parties from the outset.

Establishing a relationship with a high-ranking masked mage who holds the power and resources is definitely a sure thing.

"I'll help you get the word along. I'm sure Zelanora will be very happy when she hears it. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. ”

With that, Zeranora's cronies gave a salute to his chest with one hand, then left the carriage and the magical creatures in the cage where they were, and turned away with his men.

After the other party was completely far away, Alena walked to the side of the cage, stretched out a finger and gently poked the forehead of the dryad and asked, "What are you going to do with these magical creatures?" ”

"It's simple. The cubs of the winter wolf and the wolf are given to the little wolves to raise, and the digging worms are thrown to the bottom of the mage tower to dig tunnels. As for the Treant Lady, let her take care of the plants in the Arcane Park. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Zuo Si quickly made a decision.

As soon as she heard that she was going to hand over the little wolf cub to her own people to take care of, the werewolf girl Van Gus immediately excitedly promised: "Master, please rest assured, we will definitely be able to cultivate and train a powerful wolf pack for you." ”

You must know that both the Zodiac Wolf and the Winter Wolf are out-and-out magical creatures, possessing an extremely high level of intelligence that is not inferior to that of humans.

It can even learn several languages, including lingua franca, goblin language, and giant language, and is definitely the most suitable pet and combat partner for werewolves.

Especially from the beginning of the pup, whether it is a winter wolf or a wolf, it will regard the feeder as their own relatives or the leader of the group, and have a high degree of obedience.

"No, my purpose is not for you to nurture and train the wolves, but to learn how to be a druid or a ranger by spending time with these wolf cubs." …

As he spoke, Zuo Si opened the cage and took out the wolf cubs one by one, and then handed them to the little werewolves behind him.

I have to say that no matter how powerful and scary an animal is, it often gives people a very cute and cute feeling when they are young.

Even these evil winter wolves and wolves are no exception.

And because they are still cubs, their hair is not as hard as when they are adults, but very, very soft.

The former can still feel a hint of coolness to the touch.

It is no wonder that in the market a complete piece of winter wolf fur can be sold for a high price of five hundred to one thousand gold coins.

If it weren't for the lack of time to take care of it, Zuo Sidu would like to raise one himself.

Seeing the little wolves running to the second floor of the mage tower with their young wolves in their arms and starting to build a wolf house, he quickly came to the cage next to the demon bats and communicated with these small elemental creatures with spell-like abilities.

Although they are called "demon bats", in fact, the appearance of these guys is closer to the little devil and the quart demon, and the body is composed of a mixture of elements with different attributes, so there is no lifespan limit like elemental creatures.

They have an innate curiosity and a mischievous personality, and don't mind being a servant of an arcane spellcaster at all.

With his excellent "eloquence", Zuo Si easily persuaded these little guys to stay in the mage tower to serve themselves.

As for the payment, it is to build them a comfortable place to live.

For example, the Wind Demon Bat likes places where the air moves faster, the Magma Demon Bat and the Fire Demon Bat like high temperatures and flames, the Earth Demon Bat likes to stay in dark caves, and the Ice Demon Bat likes cold places......

In short, the differences in the preferences and personalities of the demon bats with different elemental attributes are very huge, and some of them also have a pretty good sense of humor, and occasionally tell some cold jokes that normal people can't understand.

The most important thing is that with these demon bats, all the chores in the mage tower can be handed over to them.

Compared to the noisy demon bats, the shape-shifting cats and pet cubs that have long been domesticated by the spellcasters are much quieter.

After confirming that Zuo Si was their master, they quickly showed extraordinary obedience, obediently followed the instructions to the lounge on the third floor, ate some cooked meat and milk, and then fell asleep on the sofa.

Don't look at these black kittens are now the size of a domestic cat, but it won't be long before they grow to the size of a leopard.

Its innate ability to shapeshift, almost identical to that of a baby devil, can transform into any medium-sized or small-sized creature.

As for the digging worms, they were thrown into the lowest part of the mage tower where they were connected to the sewers, and they were controlled to dig tunnels through enchanting magic.

After all these magical creatures were placed, Zosi finally transferred the dryad and her tree to the Arcane Garden, located on the fourth floor of the Mage Tower.

Even though it was bare, there was nothing but the special dirt that had just been transported.

But the moment the tree was planted, this natural creature with the appearance of a beautiful human woman was visibly relaxed, at least not as nervous as it was just now, and there was a hint of curiosity in the two emerald green eyes.

Suddenly, without warning, she unleashed an innate spell-like ability [Enchanting Human] at Zuo Si. …

The result was not surprising, and it was easily resisted by the strong immunity of the electorate in an instant.

Just as the tree spirit was puzzled and tried to continue to release the higher-level [Suggestion Technique], Zuo Si turned around and interrupted, "Okay, stop, your magic is of no use to me. ”

"For ...... Why? The dryad asked in a slightly jerky lingua franca.

"Because I am the chosen one of Talona, the goddess of poison and disease. She has given me the power to resist all seduction, mind control, and emotional magic. Plus, you don't have to worry about what I'm going to do to you. On the contrary, I want you to help take care of this arcane park and make sure that those delicate magical plants can grow healthy. ”

With that, Zuo Si handed over all the seeds he had purchased from the Masked Mage Guild to the other party.

The dryad took it and carefully opened the bag.

When he saw the seeds that contained the life force, a happy expression suddenly appeared on his face, and he immediately grabbed a handful of dirt and sprinkled it around.

It didn't take long for all the seeds to be planted.

With the power of Mother Nature, the tree spirits quickly allow these seeds to take root and sprout.

When the green seedlings broke through the ground, she suddenly appeared with an innocent smile like a child.

"From now on, this is your home. You can do whatever you want and let me know if there's anything you need. Zuo Si said bluntly.

Dryads are known to be nature's best gardeners.

For them, taking care of plants is like an instinct engraved in their bones.

Although not all mage towers have an Arcane Garden, for example, Asta's necromancer tower does not, otherwise Zuo Si would not have been almost starved to death in the first place.

But any mage tower with an Arcane Garden will do everything possible to get one or two tree spirits to help take care of the plants.

Of course, in addition to caring for plants, beautiful dryads can also provide some of the physical needs of young and vigorous mages.

At least it's much safer than summoning a succubus.

Not to mention that when you are enjoying pleasure, you have to worry about whether it will lead to prostration and death because of being absorbed too much energy.

However, this "special feature" will not be used for a while.

Confirming that the Treant had accepted his new home, Zuo Si followed suit and activated the four smaller elemental plane interfaces

Among them, the water elemental plane is the source of water for the life and experiments of the entire mage tower;

The fire elemental plane mainly provides heat to furnaces, kitchens, and other places that need fire;

The power of the Earth Elemental Plane can be used to repair and strengthen the Mage Tower, as well as to provide sufficient nourishment for the Arcane Garden, so that all plants can grow quickly and healthily;

The strong air currents and storms in the anemo-plane can be used to power large wind turbines on the one hand, and the Qualish device, a magical machine, on the other.

With the connection of the four elemental planes, the Mage Tower not only has a stable source of energy, but also can summon elemental creatures as guards and minions.

Feeling the power of the elements begin to flow through the tower, Zuo Si quickly made his way to the strongest core area in the middle of the mage tower.

Not only is this the center of all the "Energizing Circles", but it is also the place where the Elemental Reservoir is stored. …

The elemental pools of ten large mage towers, one after the other, were closely arranged in the middle of the circular crystal pillars.

Through arcane vision, it is possible to clearly see the many magical runes inside and outside the pillar, as well as the energy transmission channels.

After Vanessa, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw Zuo Si, he immediately asked, "Your Excellency, is it possible to activate this mage tower now?" ”

"Let's get started!"

Zuo Si gave a neat and affirmative answer.

I saw that he didn't say a word, and directly opened all the energy-absorbing magic circles to extract energy from the environment of the city under his feet.

It is then guided and teleported by Vanessa, and continuously injected into the element pool for storage.

The speed was too fast and violent, causing a strange vortex of energy to appear in the sky of Askatra.

And that's not all!

The rivers and seas also became agitated, and waves crashed against the levees violently in waves.

Even the ground beneath my feet began to tremble slightly for some reason, as if an earthquake had occurred.

The sunlight that had been evenly sprinkled on the earth was also frantically absorbed by the crystal device at the top of the mage tower, resulting in a dusk-like scene already appearing in the morning.

The rich and active negative energy in the cemetery area was most emptied at once.

Some of the previously active undead creatures looked listless one by one, and were obviously in a state of extreme weakness.

On top of that, all the arcane spellcasters noticed that their connection to the web was weakening, and the spells they cast were much less powerful, and some even low-level mages couldn't even cast any magic.

"Damn! Can anyone tell me what exactly happened? ”

"I don't know. Something terrible is going to happen, right? ”

"It feels like the end has come!"

"Blessed by the goddess of wealth, Wakin! Don't be a terrible disaster! ”

"Quick! Go to the temple and ask the priests what this strange sight means. ”

……

For a moment, the whole of Ascatra was in a panic.

The Council of Six and the major churches had to come forward to reassure the people, telling them that it was not the end of the world and that there was no terrible catastrophe.

Only the upper echelons of the Masked Mage Guild knew that all of this was the siphon effect of terrifying energy caused by the activation of Zuo Si's mage tower.

They couldn't have dreamed that a mere mage tower could extract so much energy in such a short period of time.

As a result, the energy pouring in from other places is far from enough to replenish the part that is sucked away, resulting in a continuous decrease in the energy in the environment.

Looking at the unbelievably spectacular view of the sky outside the window, a masked mage senior couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this a magical skill from another world?" It's just amazing! No wonder he would order the Elemental Reservoir of ten large mage towers in one go. ”

"Zelanora, you have the most contact with this voter. Tell me, is it possible for us to get this magical technique from him? ”

The eyes of another high-ranking executive flashed with undisguised greed and eagerness.

If before he had only joked about the titles and stories of "Children of the Pestilence", "Man of Calamity", and "Destroyer of Worlds" as propagated by the Church of Talona, now he is truly beginning to believe that Zuosi comes from another world and has a lot of powerful magical knowledge. …

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. I've only negotiated with him once so far on behalf of the Masked Mage and the Council of Six, and I don't know much about Soth to make any judgments. Zelanora replied quietly.

"Can't we force him to hand over this magical knowledge and technology in the name of the Masked Mage's Guild?" Another high-ranking officer cautiously proposed.

But before anyone else could speak, the old woman sitting near the window sneered and sarcastically said, "Forced the elect of the goddess of poison and pestilence?

Your brain must have been eaten by the Mind Flayer, right?

If you want to die, don't take us with you.

Leaving aside the fact that the agreement has clearly emphasized that Soth is only nominally joining the masked mage, and is not actually under the jurisdiction of anyone, and does not assume any responsibility or obligation.

His horrific plague alone that destroyed a world was enough to easily destroy all of Ascatra and even Am.

What's more, you've seen how powerful this mage tower is, are you sure he doesn't have any other hole cards?

Don't forget, none of the God's elect is easy to deal with.

Otherwise, why do you think the Council of Six went to such lengths to win him over? ”

"So what do you say?"

The high-level who spoke just now asked angrily.

"It's actually very simple. Let Zeranora come forward to continue his good relationship, and then test it when the time comes. I believe that as long as we offer enough increases, this Lord Soth will not refuse a deal that is beneficial to him. ”

The old woman unceremoniously gave her own solution.

As a typical Am, she believes that everything in this world has a price.

As long as you offer a price that is enough to make the other party happy, then you can buy what you want.

Of course, this old woman is not alone in this idea.

Most of Am's top brass agreed.

If there is anything in the Masked Mage's Guild that rivals or even surpasses other spellcaster organizations, it must be the large amount of money that the Council of Six gives them every year, as well as the huge benefits from monopolizing the entire power of Amm's arcane spellcasting.

To put it simply, it has the "ability to make money"!

Very, very, very rich!

Among other things, equipping each official member with a set of magical robes, hoods, masks, badges, and rings that can be teleported within Ascatra is not something that ordinary organizations can do.

Looking at these stupid and short-sighted creatures, Zeranora's eyes flashed with a subtle mockery, as if a king from above admired the clown performing a burlesque in the palace.

It's a pity that none of the masked mage leaders present noticed the contempt and disdain that this young "junior" inadvertently revealed.

……

The eerie state of the sky and sea in the Gold Coin Capital lasted for hours, and it wasn't until near the afternoon that everything finally returned to normal.

Just when the people were discussing fiercely, Zuo Si, who was at the core of the Mage Tower, finally let out a long breath: "Whew-it's finally done." ”…

"Yes! This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a violent energy siphon effect. This mage tower you have built is truly remarkable. Vanessa was not shy about his praise.

Although he didn't know what Zuo Si was doing for collecting so much energy, the stronger the energy of a mage tower, the stronger the defense.

At least until the energy storage is exhausted, people from outside should not expect to be able to get in easily.

This large mage tower, in particular, has a sturdy façade that can withstand even a frontal attack from giant catapults.

But Zuo Si shook his head disapprenosingly: "It's just the result of the accumulation of knowledge and wealth, it's not a big deal." I'm just a user of magic, far from being its master. ”

As he spoke, he directly pressed his hand on the pillar that ran through the tower, directly activating the creator's ability to awaken it.

Moment!

As if the mage tower had been infused with a soul, the energy in all the elemental pools began to boil.

A powerful and clear consciousness then quickly took over every corner, whether it was the entrance door, or the secret door locks, observation eyes, anti-stealth, and alarm systems placed in inconspicuous corners.

In just a few minutes, everything was managed in an orderly manner.

Like the strange things when they were first awakened, this mage tower has only a very low level of intelligence for the time being, and has no ability to think for itself at all, and only mechanically carries out the orders given by its master.

Through the psychic connection established between the two, Zuo Si can always know what is going on in every corner of the tower.

It can also command them to seal exits, cut off a hallway, or use energy reserves to summon other-dimensional creatures and unleash wide-area damage and control magic to attack intruders.

In short, now this tower is 100% his, and no one can snatch it away.

There will be no embarrassment of coming back after leaving for a while and finding that a thief or adventurer has stolen the house.

In order to distinguish it from strange things, Zuo Si gave the consciousness of this tower a name, called "Xiao Zhi (Disabled)".

Because it is not very intelligent, very similar to the "artificial retards" on the earth, once the orders are too complicated, mistakes and confusion will inevitably occur.

I can only hope that I can become a little smarter by studying.

However, awakening the consciousness of the Mage Tower does not mean that all the work is done.

Quite the opposite!

With the help of Vanessa, Zuo Si quickly built a permanent portal to the dragon's lair on the second basement floor.

He then teleported to the other side, setting up another portal not far from the dragon's lair near the furnace and lava.

The moment they activated, a vortex of energy quickly rotated at high speed in the door frame, gradually revealing the scenery on the other side, but the picture looked a little blurry.

Fortunately, with the help of the spatial stabilizer, it quickly became clearer and clearer, until a stable passage was completely established.

When Zuo Si passed through the portal and arrived on the other side, the half-dragon kobold chieftain who had been waiting for a long time immediately bowed respectfully: "Master, your servant is at your disposal. ”…

"How's the tribe going? Nothing went wrong, did it? Zuo Si asked very casually.

"Nope. Following your orders, I have been impreggating females in the tribe, and at the moment the eggs of the half-dragon kobold have exceeded one hundred and thirty. The first batch of these should not be long before they hatch. The only problem now is that we don't have enough food reserves and may not be able to raise as many pups to eat. ”

There was a clear hint of worry in the half-dragon kobold chieftain's tone.

After all, it is difficult to feed too large a population just by growing moss and mushrooms in the ground, raising some bugs and livestock adapted to the dark environment.

This is also why, kobold tribes rarely have more than one or two thousand.

"Don't worry, I'll have enough food for you."

Zuo Si straightforwardly reassured the other party.

Not to mention that the climatic conditions of Amm itself are very suitable for the growth of crops, and there will be a bumper grain harvest almost every year.

The grain and poultry and livestock from the land that Bernard gave him alone were enough to easily feed the entire kobold tribe.

In addition, Ascatra is close to the sea, so all kinds of fish and aquatic products are quite cheap.

Coupled with the permanent portal, not only can the half-dragon kobolds be fed, but they will also be well nourished and able to grow quickly and healthily.

"That's fine. Please rest assured, I will do my best to make those half-dragon kobolds grow up quickly and become your good helpers. The half-dragon kobold chief swore an oath.

Looking at the huge magma furnace in this secret lair, as well as the kobold tribe that was methodically smelting ore, Vanessa was very surprised and asked, "This is your secret base?" A vein hidden deep in the mountains and a tribe of kobolds? ”

"That's right. Well, it's not bad here. ”

Zuo Si glanced at the pile of more and more metal ingots in the distance with interest, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

Apparently, during the time he was away, the kobolds dug up a lot of ore and carried out preliminary smelting.

With this thick iron, whether it is used to make steel golems in the future, or to build tools for goblins and undead slaves, there is basically no need to worry.

Unconsciously, Zuo Si had established his own power in Faerun.

Although it is far from powerful, the sparrow is small and has all kinds of organs.

Whether it's a steady source of funding, a reliable logistical supply, or a small group of secret spellcasters made up mostly of lichs, it's all taking shape.

Vanessa casually picked up a thick iron ingot and weighed it, and commented seriously: "It's really quite good."

You must know that in this world, whoever masters the veins and steel will master the powerful force.

Combined with your plan to raise werewolf goblins, and mass-crafting undead creatures from the corpses of afterlife goblins, we'll soon have a large and heavily armed army.

In a few years, when those half-dragon kobolds grow up and awaken to warlocks, there will be enough spellcasters in this army. ”

"You forgot about the Shadow Legion. In fact, I already have an army of my own. Zuo Si reminded meaningfully. …

"Hahahaha! That's right! I forgot there were still those ghosts. Vanessa laughed happily.

Because he suddenly realized that the object of his allegiance, although he had little interest in power on the surface, had been secretly expanding his power.

Whether it's recruiting an aging high-level mage in exchange for becoming a lich in exchange for their allegiance, this vein and metal smelting center hidden deep in the mountains, or future goblin breeding plans, it all illustrates this point.

That is, Zuo Si is not resigned to the status quo, but is constantly strengthening his own strength.

Vanessa believed that when this force had grown to a certain extent, sooner or later it would clash with other groups.

When the time comes, regardless of whether Zuo Si is interested in power or not, with his character, he will inevitably fight back violently.

Once you succeed in killing the opponent, you will naturally be able to occupy the opponent's territory and sphere of influence, and then complete the transformation little by little.

In this way, after a brief tour of the kobold's lair and ore veins, the two quickly returned to the mage tower through a permanent portal.

Before leaving, Zuo Si also used his cards to summon a team of six goblins infected with bestiality, and ordered them to go to the mountains to capture as many goblins as possible, and then take them to the mage tower to dig underground.

By the time everything was arranged, it was already around eight o'clock in the evening.

Before Zuo Si could finish his meal after a busy day, Alan Linville, the nominal leader of the Shadow Thieves, came to the gate of the Mage Tower with a few guards as agreed.

In desperation, he could only give up the tempting idea of going to dinner first, and ordered "Xiao Zhi (Handicapped)" to open the door and clear the other party in.

After about two or three minutes, the two finally met in the living room on the first floor.

"Good evening, Honorable Lord South. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet with me. The first time I visited, a small gift was not a tribute. ”

As he spoke, Alan Linville gently placed the box he was holding on the table, and then made a gesture of please with a smile on his face.

I have to say that it is not for nothing that this guy can become the nominal leader of the shadow thieves.

First of all, this sleek and eloquent talent is not comparable to ordinary people.

Although he is not good-looking, and can even be said to be a little ugly, his words and deeds give people a sense of politeness.

Zuo Si opened the box in front of him and took a look, and found that it was actually a gemstone brooch, which not only kept the [Vocalization] constant, but also allowed the wearer to cast a little faster, which was a typical equipment used for spell battles.

Among them, [Vocalization] can fight [Silence], effectively preventing situations where you cannot chant spells.

Increasing cast speed means that your spells can be completed faster than your enemies' spells.

A handful of experienced mages can even use this advantage to quickly determine the magic that their opponent is unleashing, and then counteract in just a few seconds.

The so-called magic countermeasure refers to the use of the same magic to interrupt the stability of the structure of the method, so that it cannot be released.

For example, if one person releases a Fireball, the other person will also release the Fireball to counteract. …

Certain special techniques can also allow the high-level spellcaster to counter a low-level spell by consuming a higher-level spell of the same faction.

In short, spell countermeasures are a fairly advanced science,

Only a handful of "real-combat" mages who engage in spell duels with others all day long can master it.

Although Zuo Si has the instantaneous card system of the Brigade Mage and doesn't care about silence and spell countermeasures, Alena the Pyromancer needs it very much.

So he immediately chose to accept the gift, smiled and said, "Very good magic item, thank you." ”

"If you like it."

Seeing that the effect of gift-giving was working, Alan Linville's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

"May I ask if you shadow thieves are looking for me?" Zuo Si touched his chin and said tentatively.

Alan Linville didn't even think about it before he spit out two words directly from his mouth: "Poison!" ”

"Poison?"

Zuo Si froze slightly.

If the other party's request was only to buy poison, he would have been more than happy to agree.

Because there was no difficulty for him to make this thing at all, and it took as much as he could.

Anyway, the money sent to the door is not earned in vain.

Alan Linville hurriedly nodded: "That's right. We've learned from Port Carlin that you're a master at making poisons.

And is good at making more than one poison.

Although we Shadow Thieves have trained a few professionals, their production is too low to supply the entire guild.

So I'd like to sign a long-term agreement with you to provide ample poison to all the Assassins and thieves throughout the guild. ”

"What type of poison do you need? Can you quickly develop neurotoxins and hemagglutinoxins that can kill people? Or is it the accumulation of chronic toxins in the internal organs that slowly kill people in the invisible? Or paralyzing toxins that cause blindness, deafness, inability to speak, and immobility? And what is the dose? ”

Zuo Si asked several questions in one go, and instantly asked Alan Linville a blind question.

Although he claimed to know a little about toxins, he didn't know that there were so many types of toxins, and his heart was immediately full of admiration for Zuo Si.

It is truly worthy of being the elect of Talona, the goddess of poison and disease, the ceiling of the entire refining and manufacturing toxin industry.

After pondering for a moment with his head down, the nominal leader of the shadow thieves immediately spoke: "We need at least two liters of neurotoxin or hemagglutinoxin, one liter of chronic toxin, and finally six and a half liters of paralyzing toxin every four months. In return, the guild will pay you a lump sum of 70,000 gold coins, as well as magic items, scrolls, and books with a total value of no less than 20,000 gold coins. ”

"Deal! But you're responsible for supplying the ingredients. ”

Zuo Si simply agreed.

Perhaps for others, making so many poisons is definitely quite a troublesome thing.

But for him with the LV11 creator level, it's as easy as eating and drinking.

Not to mention that it is a "poison source" in its own right.

Because most of the people in Ferren who are engaged in making poisons mostly extract ready-made toxins from nature. …

It is either extracted from highly venomous animals such as the venom glands of snakes, the tail needles of scorpions, and the venom sacs of spiders, or from the fruits, leaves, and rhizomes of some highly venomous plants.

They didn't know exactly what was working, and they were just judging whether it was toxic or not, and whether it was violent, based on how the subject reacted when it was poisoned.

However, through the ability of the creator, Zuosi can filter out all impurities and directly extract highly toxic substances, with a purity of up to 99%.

This is also why, the ricin he extracted, even if it is boiled in a high-temperature soup pot for half a day, can still poison a large number of returned pirates.

Because the dose is just too high.

Even if seventy or eighty percent of them are destroyed by the high temperature, the remaining twenty or thirty percent can still poison the other party without much effort.

As the saying goes, talking about toxicity aside from dosage is a hooligan.

And Zuo Si's poisoning has always been admired for "vigorously producing miracles", anyway, it is right to add it to death.

"No problem. Please send me a list and I promise to send all the ingredients in three days at most. In addition, we Shadow Thieves are very eager to maintain a long-term and good relationship with you. You know, we have a lot of special channels where you can get good things that ordinary businessmen can't get. ”

As he said this, Alan Linville's tone was full of naked and undisguised temptation.

"Oh? What's the good stuff? Zuo Si asked silently.

"I'll give you a list when I get the first batch of poisons. Then you will understand how powerful our shadow thieves really are. Alan Linville boasted proudly.

"Hehe, I hope so."

Zuo Si smiled disappreciatively.

Shadow Thief Powerful?

That's how to compare it to whom!

For most ordinary people, the Shadow Thief is indeed a formidable behemoth.

But for a mage like Serre's Red Robe, the Shadow Thief is nothing more than an unruly criminal syndicate.

All the formidable appearance of the organization has been built up by shady means such as threats, intimidation, kidnapping, and killings.

In a few years, the vampire Badi and her descendants will begin to hunt down the Shadow Thieves, and the world will see how fragile the Shadow Thieves Guild really is.

The latter's lair in Ascatra was almost uprooted by the former.

Therefore, in the face of truly powerful forces, all the thieves' guilds in Faeron are nothing more than a joke.

The ones who can really be called strong are always the mages, warlocks, priests, druids, and other arcane and divine spellcasters.

If an organization does not have a strong spellcaster, no matter how well it develops and how large its power seems, it is nothing more than a castle piled up on the beach, and it will collapse with a light rush.
