291. Larond rock bone
How to explain to Nicole that she has the will and essentia to assassinate angels?
Leno had been thinking about this after a very brief conversation with the assassination angel last night.
After a moment's thought, he decided to put on hold from revealing his angelic identity to Nicole.
The assassination angel obviously has its own considerations in this regard, and it is better not to mix it up.
The next day, after breakfast, Li Nuo went out to deconstruct the sea, and Dinas meditated and inquired at home.
Nicole plays on Island 33 by herself, and when she is bored, she can go to talk to Noreen on the ground.
In order to complete the deconstruction of the deconstructed sea area as soon as possible, Li Nuo drew a deconstructed roadmap around the Suman Islands based on the sea area map recorded in his mind.
He will start from the No. 1 Snow Mountain Island and deconstruct all the sub-seas within a radius of thousands of kilometers in clockwise order.
The method of deconstruction is passive deconstruction, that is, using the physical body to resist water pressure, and at the same time practicing the "Deep Sea Scales" meditation method, "Calm Breathing Method", and "Calm Body Forging Technique".
It is estimated that within a month, the high-intensity passive deconstruction process can bring nearly 80 billion energy points.
These energy points will be invested by Li Nuo to deconstruct the island and obtain a map of the distribution of non-metallic ores.
Mira Far, from the Farr family, is currently the interim head of the Pangula family in the Suman Islands.
She currently has three ore mining teams under her command.
The three mining teams work together to harvest an average of five days of non-metallic ore from a small island.
An island corresponds to a map of the distribution of non-metallic ores, which consumes one in five days.
If more ore mining teams are mobilized, the consumption of the distribution map will increase exponentially.
According to the magic contract signed between Li Nuo and the Deep Sea Branch, the mining of non-metallic ores was in a state of trial operation for the first year.
The mining of non-metallic ores will be increased only after the smelting of non-metallic ores, the construction of non-metallic ships, and the funds for the purchase of non-metallic ships.
At that time, the demand for non-metallic ore distribution map will really usher in an explosive period.
The current demand for distribution maps is just a small fight.
Before setting off to explore the magical ruins, Li Nuo will give Selena 100 non-metallic ore distribution maps at one time, so as to cooperate with the mining work of the Pangula family in the next six months.
According to gross estimates, by the time Li Nuo handed over the distribution map, there should be about 1 billion energy points left on the panel.
With such an amount of energy in stock, it should be enough for him to deal with the magic relics.
"Selena, I'm going to Snow Mountain Island No. 1, help me adjust the teleportation beacon,"
Li Nuo came to the fifth basement level of Island 33 and stood in front of a half-human-high miniature ocean.
He activated the "Soul Sense" and said to the witch who was far away in the academy castle:
"Is there any important news from the Suman Islands lately?"
A gaze shot out from the "tracking marker" in the corner of the wall and landed on Li Nuo.
Selena's graceful voice sounded in Li Nuo's ears:
"Well, there is a lot of important news, mainly related to the Mantas family.
"After that guy from York was captured by Ronk as a wizard criminal, I found a chance to meet him. We discussed the matter of the Mantas family funding the replacement of non-metallic ships by the whole island.
"Yoxim verbally agreed, but he offered to let him out and return the magic stones belonging to the Mantas family before he could discuss the specifics with me and sign a magic contract."
Selena paused:
"This guy is very shrewd, Jarvis. What you may not know is that the last time he was dragged to the bottom of the ocean by the Kraken, he secretly signed a magical contract with the Kraken.
In this magical contract, Joxim promised that he would gather a force of wizards to make offerings to the Kraken upon his return to the Suman Islands.
The Kraken promised that after receiving the magic stones offered by the wizards, they would return Yoxim's share and give 10% of the remaining magic stones to Yoxim as a reward.
"If it weren't for Ronk's use of detection spells to discover the existence of this contract, the wizarding forces who were fooled by Yoxim probably wouldn't have dreamed that the Kraken would share the spoils with Yoxime. Do you think this guy is bad? ”
Li Nuo knew what was going on before.
He smiled and said:
"The wizard forces that offered to the Kraken carried a total of 8 million high-concentration magic stones. 10% is 800,000, an average of 3,000 gold coins, that is 2.4 billion gold coins. If Yokosim can get this vote done, his profits for a year will come out. He is indeed very bad, but if he can succeed, he will definitely make a profit. ”
Selena sneered disdainfully, making no secret of her dislike for Joksim:
"If it weren't for the Mantas family's money, I wouldn't want to work with such a person... Forget it, don't talk about this, I have another thing to tell you. Someone is looking for news about the distribution map of non-metallic ores. They wanted to find out who had provided the distribution map for the Deep Sea Branch. ”
"Oh? Know who they are? Li Nuo asked.
"Uh-huh, of course, I recorded their origin for the first time." Selena dictated:
"They mainly come from three different wizarding forces.
"The first force is the Fagan branch of the Pangula family. Fagan Pangula, after his son's setback, did not give up, and still wanted to take the position of steward of the Suman Islands from Sian. Coupled with the stimulus of having a map of the distribution of non-metallic ores, he now can't wait to return to the Suman Islands.
"The second force is the Pillar of the Leylines..."
Li Nuo raised his eyebrows.
He knew about this wizarding force.
The other party took over the Death Society, undertook the research task of studying the Necromantic Sect, and is currently stationed in the Tatis Empire.
"The wizards of the Pillar of the Leylines have a great demand for non-metallic ores, which is related to their meditation methods."
Selena says:
"When I learned that there was a plan to mine non-metallic ores on a large scale here in the Suman Islands, they sent me a letter asking if I could sell some of the non-metallic ores to them. At your request, I politely declined them for the time being, but reserved the possibility of selling the ore later. ”
"Well, I made a note of it. When you have the opportunity in the future, you can work with them again. Li Nuo nodded slightly and asked:
"And what's the third force to inquire about the distribution map?"
"Do you know the King of Rock Bone? Jarvis. Selena said.
Li Nuo retrieved the knowledge in his mind:
"I know. He is one of the veteran chief wizards of the Witch Council, and has a large wizarding force under his command, called "Laron Rock Bone", who is in charge of the Laron Grand Canyon in the southern part of Cahill. ”
"Well, yes, the third force that asked me about the distribution map is the "Larond Rock Bone". Selena's tone became solemn:
"The demand for rock and soil magic and non-metallic ores has always been one of the best in the Unas Ring. The fact that the Suman Islands are preparing to mine non-metallic ores on a large scale will certainly not be able to hide from them.
"If the leyline wizards are still willing to communicate peacefully, then the rock bone wizards of the "Laron Rock Bone" are arrogant and domineering. With the "King of Rock Bones" to support them, they look like they are not afraid of the sky and the earth wherever they go. So, you know, be careful, it's better not to run into them. ”
Li Nuo thought about it and said:
"Selena, did you say that the two forces of the Leyline Pillar and the Laron Rock Bone were deliberately attracted by Fagan Pangula?"
"What? Why? Selena was stunned.
Li Nuo snapped his fingers and said:
"So far, Mira Fall's mining team has only recently exhausted the non-metallic ores on the four small islands. The total mining volume of non-metallic ores is only 10,000 tons, mainly high-concentration rock deposits and rock and soil magic stones.
"We're not selling these non-metallic ores, are we? All of them were preserved by the Deep Sea Branch in the Academy's ore warehouse.
"Naturally, the two of us will not publicize the mining of non-metallic ores. Mila Farr wouldn't do that either. Because if other geotechnical forces step in to exploit the mine, Mira Fall will face competition.
"Your father and I have had a holiday, but no matter what, the Deep Sea Branch can benefit from the production of non-metallic ores in the Suman Islands. It doesn't seem to do him much good to use the Pillars of the Leylines and the Larron Bone to hinder my exploration of the veins..."
Li Nuo clapped his hands:
So, the answer came out, and Fagan Pangula was the biggest suspect. He was dissatisfied with Mira Farr's control of the non-metallic minerals because he had lost control of the Suman Islands.
"Don't forget, Mira Farr's mining team was formed by Dikla Fagan, and it is very likely that there is an eyeliner of Fagan's lineage in it. If Fagan Pangula wants to ruin Mira Farr's cooperation with the Deep Sea Branch, then snatching the distribution map from her hand is the most important thing.
"The two wizarding forces, the Pillar of the Leylines and the Laron Rock Bone, are the best 'murder weapons' for Fagen Pangula to deal with the Deep Sea Branch and Mira Farr."
Li Nuo's analysis directly hit the key points of interest, explained in simple terms, and pointed out the role and interest relationship of Feigen Pangula in this incident.
Selena thought along his train of thought, and gradually came to her senses:
Yes, you're right, Jarvis. It's possible that Fagen Pangula did it. Otherwise, the Leyline Pillar and the Laron Rock Bone would not have known the news so quickly. So what now? Do you need me to talk to my father and send a letter to Fagan Pangula to warn him? ”
"Yes, let your father step in and take care of it, I don't think he will refuse." Li Nuo said.
It's just so magical.
Li Nuo and Selena's father did have some troubles, but in the face of threats from outside the Deep Sea Branch, they were able to stand together and deal with Fagen Pangula together.
There are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests.
This sentence is vividly embodied at this moment.
Of course, Li Nuo knew in his heart that he would not trust Selena's father 100% if he "unloaded the mill and killed the donkey, and borrowed the knife shark man".
"That's all for now, Selena. Help me activate the miniature ocean, I'm going to Snow Mountain Island No. 1. ”
"Okay, Jarvis. I'm going to calibrate the teleportation destination of the miniature ocean. Wait a minute. ”
Selena temporarily turned off Soul Sense.
About half a minute later, the miniature ocean in front of Li Nuo squirmed.
It slowly rises from the ground, hovers to a height of more than a meter, and gradually expands in size from half a meter in diameter to two meters.
When the miniature ocean stabilized, Selena said with "soul induction":
"That's it, Jarvis, let's go inside. The destination is the Enchanted Ocean Current directly east of Snow Mountain Island No. 1. ”
Li Nuo nodded, and plunged into the ocean of miniatures.
The water shimmered, and the miniature ocean wriggled violently, swallowing Lino away.
There was no one on the fifth basement floor, only dozens or hundreds of magic devices used to store thunder and lightning energy, quietly in place.
They are made of enchanted rocks and have a boxy appearance, like unpretentious stone piers.
Each of these magic devices can store hundreds of millions of points of lightning energy.
The stored lightning energy can be used to cast the "Thundercloud Technique" and create a powerful "Thunderstorm Nova" to destroy all the secrets above and below the surface of Island 33.
…
…
The enchanted ocean current east of Snow Mountain Island No. 1.
As soon as Li Nuo arrived here, he activated the "Liquid Transformation Technique" and the "Water Walking Technique".
He didn't stop, but swam straight to the east.
He wasn't really worried about his encounter with the wizard of the Larron Rock Bone.
The way he explores the veins is not to use the vein exploration device to go deep underground and find the whereabouts of the non-metallic ores with his own hands.
With the use of Psychic Vision, he can sit at home and see the entire island of the Suman archipelago.
Now that you can see the island, it is not a problem to deconstruct the island.
With such a convenient way of operating, there was no need for him to go to the island to explore for ore himself.
Besides, Li Nuo had already taken a layer of protective measures.
He attributed the source of the distribution map of non-metallic ores to the dragon treasures he had obtained.
The last time he went to sea to go to the Starfall Sea, wasn't it just to make sure that he held the treasure of the dragon clan in his hands.
There are two uses for this layer of protection under Li Nobu.
First, to confuse the eyes of the prying eyes.
Second, it is used to screen leakers.
Li Nuo was going to find an opportunity to take the initiative to hint to the Deep Sea Branch that the distribution map in his hand came from the dragon treasure obtained by chance.
Li Nuo placed a "tracking marker" on the Starfall Sea.
What does it mean if wizards from the Leyline Pillars and Laron Rock Bones appear near these magic markers, and they also go deep into the ocean floor to search for treasure?
That's right.
This shows that among the insiders of the Deep Sea Branch, there are leakers.
Leno only needs to use deconstruction and elimination to find out the leaker.
Under the careful arrangement, Li Nuo thought that he was at ease.
The only tricky part is the wizarding force of "Laron Rock Bone".
The ruler of the "Lalong Rock Bone", the "King of the Rock Bone", only has the strength of the Ten Rings on the surface.
He was at least 400 years old.
Since more than 300 years ago, after being promoted to the Wizard of the Ten Rings, he has been the chief wizard of the Witch Council.
Under his operation, the Decree No. 2 of the Unas Ring appeared in favor of the "Larond Rock Bone".
For example, the acquisition of non-metallic ores.
The "Laron Rock Bone" can be used to ask for ores and rock and earth magic stones from wizard forces that produce non-metallic ores by initiating a duel.
If the Laron Bone is victorious in the duel, it can obtain ores and magic stones from the loser at a very low price. The maximum amount obtained is not more than 20% of the total production of ores and magic stones.
If the "Laron Rock Bone" duel fails, then "Laron Rock Bone" promises not to start another duel for 10 years, and there is no punishment for anything else.
What's the difference between this and hooliganism?
When Li Nuo read the content of these decrees at that time, he only saw the word "Laipi" in both horizontal and vertical directions.
However, such a law that borders on banditry has been approved by the Umno Council and written into Decree No. 2.
Why is this happening?
The reason is simple.
The overall strength of "Lalong Rock Bone" is very strong.
Any wizarding force that produces non-metallic ores will have to weigh whether they have the means to fight against the "Laron Rock Bone".
If you accept the duel of "Laron Rock Bone", you will lose up to 20% of your production.
But if you don't accept the duel, then "Larond Rock Bone" will let the other party experience the deep "heritage" of the old wizard's power, and let the other party know what it means to "do whatever it takes to achieve the end".
While he is strong, Larond Rock Bone is also shrewd.
They first had to find out how many non-metallic ores the distribution map of the Deep Sea Branch had in their hands, and who was providing these distribution maps to the Deep Sea Branch, and then they could determine how big this "cake" was and how many wizards they needed to send out to bite a piece.
After all, according to the provisions of Decree No. 2, the "Laron Rock Bone" can only launch a duel against the same wizarding force once within 10 years.
The Pangula family is only an engineering contractor for the mining of ore, and all the ore production is owned by the Deep Sea Branch.
Therefore, the Deep Sea Branch is the target of "Larond Rock Bone".
Li Nuo had this in advance, so he asked Selena to go to her father to mediate.
"Just give Minwak Pomida a headache~"
Li Nuo smiled secretly in his heart.
He has reached the great sea in the eastern part of the Suman Islands.
This deep-sea area has 3,000 sub-seas, hence the name "Giant".
Theoretically speaking, if you swim all the way east, cross the giant sea, and do not encounter any strong winds and waves and deep-sea monsters, you can easily reach the Unas Ring 7,000 kilometers away.
Li Nuo used deconstruction to find the junction of the four sub-seas, and officially started the work of passive deconstruction of the sea.
At the same time, Selena's study.
Selena holds a magic pen and writes a letter to her father with her own hands.
She hid the process of her conversation with Li Nuo, and repeated Li Nuo's reasoning process in her own voice.
"Father, Fagan Pangula is not willing to lose control of the Suman Islands, and he is eager to return here in a more radical way, and reclaim the position of local governor..."
The magic pen rubbed against the paper, and the sound was interrupted by a sudden urgent letter.
The Magic Conch appears next to Selena, wrapping the envelope in a bubble and placing it on the table.
On the cover of the letter, the words "Notification Letter" were written in bold black letters.
With a stroke of her fingers, Selena used a sharp waterjet to cut open the envelope and get the letter paper inside.
"Shhhh Now it's in trouble. ”
Selena stared at the contents of the letter and let out a low sigh.
"Bang la~" A miniature ocean in her study was splashing, and someone was trying to teleport here.
Selena looked over when she heard the sound, and her face changed slightly.
She took a deep breath, forcing herself to keep her composure, and raised her hand to shoot a ribbon of water into the miniature ocean, allowing the other to teleport over.
"Bang la la la~~~~"
Large expanses of sea rolled over the miniature ocean, and two figures were wrapped in the sea water and sent to the floor.
One of them was scrawny, with pale skin and bones, like a clay figure made of white rock and earth, covered with tiny rock spikes.
The other was wearing the earthy brown magic robe of the Pangula family, with high cheekbones and a gloomy expression.
As soon as he arrived, he spoke coldly:
"Lady Selena, you've received a letter from the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department.
"There is evidence that your Deep Sea Branch has stolen the ore distribution map within the Pangula family.
"I'm Dietrich Fagen Pangula. In the presence of the Rock Bone Enforcers, I will question you. (End of chapter)
