Chapter 202 Transactions

Risen from the Smallest, Nessera represents the caster of wisdom and power, whether it is a priest of the gods or a new class of magic, the de facto leader who leads the people to a place of existence.

Therefore, it is the responsibility of every caster to open up the shadow." But as the empire's territory gradually expanded, the Nayse people were no longer in the precarious state of the past, and the mature territory did not even have a single hungry people, and the development became a thankless task, and the most recent exploration has been nearly a hundred years ago.

Xia Duo replied that he was obviously playing a trick, and Lord Epps was noncommittal about this, and instead asked about Xia Duo's development plan, you are responsible for development, but what about the plan?

Now, Xia Duo is a little blind, one has no one, two has no money, and three has no strength, what development plan can he have, he is trying to avoid this!

"Lord Lord, this needs to be considered slowly, not in a hurry for the time being, not in a hurry for the time being!"

"Huh." Lord Epps laughed,

"Shado, I have a suggestion here, do you want to listen to it?" Xia Duo perked up, knowing that the play meat was coming, he knew that the lord could not look for him for no reason, it turned out that he was waiting for him here!

"My lord, please speak!"

"I asked Lord Greta and she told me that the pioneers need to explore the wilderness southeast of Conch City, which is infested with gnolls, orcs, and trolls, but Conch City will not provide assistance, because no matter how difficult it is to develop there, it has actually damaged the potential territory of Conch City.

"In addition, the supplies provided by Her Royal Highness the Princess must also pass through Conch City." The lord didn't have a manpower problem, and Xia Duo's heart was already cold, but fortunately, the lord's next words allowed him to find some warmth.

"And my suggestion is that you can choose an area in the Green Pearl Forest as your frontier site, and I will provide you with some basic supplies." This kind of plan was almost tailor-made for him, and Xia Duo was happy in his heart, but after the joy passed, he also calmed down.

The lord's doing this has obviously gone beyond the scope of normal co-optation, and the biggest problem blocking the development of the Green Bead Forest, the orcs, is no longer a big problem now.

What reason does the lord have to give up a piece of territory that can be eaten safely! Before now, if the leader wanted him to do something, he would not be able to refuse, and the only answer was,

The title "Pioneer" is a title that makes the lord look at him differently, and most importantly - it brings some hidden benefit that the lord may need.

After sorting out everything, Xia Duo also had a bottom in his heart, he looked at the lord and asked calmly, "Then what price do I need to pay?" ”

"Reading privileges for [Color-resistant scroll]."

"What?!" Xia Duo could barely believe his ears, when would he be able to connect with the [Color-Resistant Scroll]?

The title of "Pioneer" still has this kind of benefit, Xia Duo subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when the words came to his lips, it became-

"What's going on with the [Color Resistant Scroll]?" Lord Epps didn't hide it either, and slowly explained,

"In the past, the recipient of the title of 'Pioneer' was at least one Archmage, but now this title represents the Archmage in a way, and the Archmage can read the [Color-Resistant Scroll]." After a moment's hesitation, Lord Epps again,

"But the current pioneer is not an archmage after all, and the number of titles issued this time is not a few, it is impossible to really have the full authority of an archmage, I speculate that if it is not a limit on the number of times, it is a limit on the interval."

"There is no limit to the true archmage reading the [Color-resistant Scroll]?" Xia Duo asked curiously.

"How can there be no limits!" Lord Epps sighed,

"If it was seventy years ago, even an ordinary farmer could go to the headquarters of the Arcane Federation to watch the [Color-resistant Scroll], but now even if you are an archmage, you only have one chance a year." Xia Duo knew that the lord was the tragedy of the theft of a complete set of [Colorless Scrolls] seventy years ago, although there was all kinds of evidence that it was the Elves of Comanso, but in the end, it was not done.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, not only on the earth, but everywhere! Xia Duo couldn't understand the lord's sad state of mind, he just felt a little sorry, the theft of the [Color Resistant Scroll] caused him to not be able to read it at will now.

The hidden benefits of the title of "Pioneer" are not bad, but they are favored by the lord again. Alas-perhaps out of awe of the princess's awarding of titles, on the whole, the lord is quite sincere, and for the current Xia Duolai, whether he looks at the [Color Resistant Scroll] or not, in fact, there is not much difference.

And trading the reading rights away saves you the dilemma of going to the unknown wilderness to explore, and you get a territory that is relatively easy to explore, as well as the favor and protection of the lord to a certain extent.

Overall, it's not too much of a loss, and if it's another mage, the transaction may become directly forced.

Xia Duo did not want to test the lord's temperament, and immediately said,

"I agree!"

"Good!" A satisfied smile appeared on Lord Epps's face, and then he comforted Shado,

"The knowledge on the [Color Resistance Scroll] is complicated and difficult, if you go to see it now, in fact, there will be no gain at all, when Niya sees it back, I will let her pass it on to you, and the Tower of Time also has a record of the knowledge on the [Color Resistance Scroll]." Of course, what Epps didn't have was that in addition to the knowledge on the scroll, the act of reading the [Color Resistant Scroll] was a gain in itself.

The lord's words didn't bring much comfort to Xia Duo, but since it had been decided, there was no need to dwell on it.

"Here's a map of the Green Bead Forest." Epps took out an arm-long scroll of paper and handed it to Shado,

"I promise you two inches of land, and if you can open up more within three years, it will also belong to you. Take it back and study it carefully, and tell me the results. "So-called

"Circle two inches of land" is to use a two-inch long line to enclose an area on the map, whether it is more or less, the key is to look at the scale of the map.

However, the part that the lord promised to exceed within three years was also counted, and Xia Duo suddenly felt better in his heart, both guaranteed and motivated, and he felt that the lord really held his mind steady.

Taking the map, Xia Duo took his leave and left. Looks like tonight might be an all-nighter again! …… At the same time, the topic of the Arcane Contest in the Savile Territory appeared in Comanso, far to the east, separated from the Savile Territory by mountains, forests, and rivers.

Beneath the tower, secrets are always hidden. In the courtyard of the Stardew family, Patriarch Orlando is exchanging poetry with his younger brother Feno Vita, commenting on the recent events in the city.

Just chatting, Orlando suddenly stopped talking, and his expression was a little weird, noticing this, Fenovita immediately asked, "Orlando, what's going on?" ”

"It's not a big deal, it's just a warning from Veranther."
