Lenovo, Barr Stone, Headway.

The three of them sat in the same boat and returned to the Suman Islands, a somewhat awkward meeting...

After Leno allowed him to leave, Bar Stone put the body bag on the ground into a magic bag and went to the open deck to open the portal to the Grand Canyon of Lalon.

The sub-plane of the Laron Rock Bone is a gray-white planet covered in rock spikes.

As the portal opened, the planet magnified in the night sky, releasing a gray glow that cast a gray pillar of light at Barr Stone.

When Bal Stone teleported away, the planet was restored to its original state.

Headway breathed a sigh of relief, and almost collapsed in his chair in the control room.

He couldn't figure out why he was involved in such a quagmire involving multiple wizarding forces.

Leno didn't explain anything to Headway.

He took out a coin bag containing gold coins, threw it to the other party, and said:

"There's 100,000 gold here, Headway. Take them, it's your due. In the next one to two months, you can stay in Suman City, and don't think about going to sea to hunt for treasure. ”

"So many gold coins—" Headway's eyes widened, and he opened his coin pouch to look at the glint of cash floating in his eyes.

"I won't treat any collaborator badly." Li Nuo said with a smile:

"You handled it well this time, Headway. You crushed the crystal in time, and I also learned about your attack in time. Most importantly, you managed to bring in the Rock Bone Wizard and the Wizard of the Pangula family, saving me the trouble of searching for you on the sea. ”

Li Nuo's words were not polite.

He genuinely appreciates Headway's ability to adapt on the spot.

The 723 sub-sea area was chosen as the connection point purely because Hitor Pomida's miniature ocean could only use the 723 sub-sea area as the destination when teleporting people to the Black Fold Sea.

The whole sea of black folds is so big.

If Headway couldn't lure people over, Leno really didn't know how to find their traces in a short time.

Thankfully, it turned out well, and Headway did its job.

Just because he risked his life to bring this to General Li Nuo, he was worthy of a reward of 100,000 gold coins.

"I'm going first, Headway. You can sail back by yourself. Li Nuo greeted the other party.

He reached the edge of the open deck, plunged into the sea, turned into an underwater shadow, and sped off into the distance.

After a while, Li Nuo's figure disappeared from Hideaway's field of vision.

Headway was stunned for a few seconds when he faced Li Nuo, who was coming and going, and then he came back to his senses and put away the coin bag happily.

He turned the magic engine and turned the bow of the ship towards Suman City.

…

…

If the Silent Girl and Laron Rock Bone cooperate, the amount of ore distribution maps needed to mine non-metallic ores is likely to be doubled, or even tripled, fivefold, or even more.

Li Nuo needs to prepare more and more energy points for this to meet the needs of the ore distribution map.

In addition, it is essential to buy an island before mining the non-metallic ore of that island.

How can there be a reason to go to someone else's island to mine resources and then take it with you, right?

When it comes to buying an island, Li Nuo doesn't have to worry about it.

Before setting off for the 723 sub-sea area of the Sea of Black Folds, he reached a cooperation agreement with Professor Erica in the "Court of Silence".

Li Nuo was responsible for providing her with a map of the distribution of non-metallic ores.

Erica was responsible for negotiating with "Larond Rock Bone" and providing a map of the distribution of non-metallic ores for a fee.

The "Laron Rock Bone" will take care of the island buying and mining ore.

Those Rock Bone Wizards were already wealthy, and they also had the same ore mining power as the Pangula family.

Their mining speed will only be faster than that of the Pangula family.

After the "Silent Maiden" and "Larond Rock Bone" make a contract, Professor Erica will receive 20% of the non-metallic ore production.

Of the 20% production, Li Nuo and Professor Erica each split half.

It stands to reason that Professor Erica just came forward to negotiate and sign another magic contract, and if she was given half of it, would Li Nuo lose money?

No, no, no.

You can't just look at the numbers.

If the output is distributed purely according to the contribution rate, then Li Nuo can get 15% of the total output, and Professor Erica can only get 5%.

But this account, Li Nuo is not calculated like this.

The current situation is that Professor Erica trusts him very much because of the teacher-student relationship.

Professor Erica very much wants to train Li Nuo to be the main professor and help him share some of the pressure of teaching affairs.

At the same time, Professor Erica will not impose additional restrictions on Li Nuo except for complaining that Li Nuo does not attend classes.

As long as Li Nuo doesn't die, doesn't do bad things in the name of "Silent Girl", and forces Professor Erica to clear the door, then there will never be estrangement and conflict between him and "Silent Girl".

In line with the principle of "she is good, I am good", Li Nuo does not mind subsidizing Professor Erica with non-metallic ores.

It is tiring to always defeat the opponent with wisdom and force, and it is better to use prestige to force the ill-intentioned people to retreat.

In order to achieve this step, it is essential to give a "blood transfusion" to the "Silent Girl".

Only when the "Silent Girl" is strong enough, no one dares to bully Li Nuo.

This is the reason why Li Nuo is willing to give Erica more shares.

Li Nuo hasn't talked about these things with Selena for the time being, and he needs an opportunity.

After dealing with Hideaway's affairs, Leno asked Selena to turn on the teleportation function of the Miniature Ocean and pick herself up from the Sea of Black Pleats.

When I got back to Island 33, it was five o'clock in the morning.

Li Nuo first entered the bedroom to meditate for a while, and when the exhaustion was washed away, he went to the "Court of Silence" to find the professor.

It took him half an hour to discuss the follow-up with Erica.

Next, patience is key.

The rigid demand for non-metallic ores made it impossible for Lalong Rock to refuse Li Nuo's proposal.

However, it always takes time for the "Laron" to reach an agreement within the "Laron Rock Bone" and the time it discusses the game with the Fagan family of the Pangula family.

Generally speaking, it can be as short as 3 days or as long as 7 days, and the Fagan family of the Pangula family will send Dietrich Fagan to visit Selena again.

If Dietrich still doesn't show up after this time period, it means that the situation has changed, and Lino has to be fully prepared.

Time is spent in the passive deconstruction of the sea day after day.

The sub-sea areas selected by Li Nuo are all far away from the shipping lanes.

The underwater environment at a depth of 1,000 meters is a forbidden area for human beings.

Li Nuo soaked in the water for several days in a row, and did not encounter any wizards or krakens who did not have long eyes, but encountered some hungry and crazy deep-sea monsters.

It is not a wise move to use spells or fists to kill the deep-sea monsters that come to the door to find fault.

Because of the blood, wreckage and noise, it will attract more deep-sea monsters to "join in the fun".

After discovering the deep-sea demonic beasts, Li Nuo either used "perceptual tampering" to drive them away, or used the underwater mechanical spirit enchanted with "psychic illusions" to lure them away.

It can be regarded as his luck that he did not meet a Warcraft leader who is immune to psychic spells.

The whole process of passive deconstruction of the subsea is thrilling.

Six days later.

Just when Li Nuo was in the dark water, holding Dinas to practice the "Deep Sea Scales" meditation method, Selena, who was far away in the inner circle, waited for the expected guests.

Just like the last time he visited, Dietrich Fagan was accompanied by a rock enforcer.

The rock bone enforcer was none other than Bar Stone, who had been stabbed in the waist by Li Nuo.

Selena didn't know that Leno and Bar Stone were out of breath for the time being.

As usual, she wrote two letters, one to Li Nuo and the other to her eldest brother.

When Ronk sat down next to Selena, the second meeting between the two sides officially began.

Compared with the tense atmosphere when we met for the first time, the atmosphere of the scene this time was much more relaxed.

Dietrich Fagan changed his aggressive posture and said in a calm tone Fagan's request:

"Ms. Selena, Mr. Ronk, about the prospecting competition we talked about last time..."

Dietrich recounted the prepared rhetoric, and Selena and Ronk listened patiently.

A game is still a game.

It is still a competition between the Pangula family and the deep-sea branch, and the ability to explore non-metallic ores in the field.

The contest was no longer about the islands of the Pangura family, but about two large islands randomly selected from the Suman Islands.

The Deep Sea Branch and the Pangula family each explored one of the islands, then swapped sites to explore the other island.

When the exploration reports of the two islands come out, the non-metallic ores will be mined by the "Lalong Rock Bone".

The final non-metallic ore production, which exploration report is closer to, will be awarded 1 point to the author of the report.

If both teams score 1 point, then the game is a draw, there is no loser and no winner.

But if the Fagan vein of the Pangula family loses...

"On behalf of Fagan, I promise that if we lose, Fagan will stay away from the Suman Islands within five years."

Dietrich said solemnly.

The implication is:

Within five years, Fagan and his family would no longer be thinking about regaining control of the Suman Islands.

In addition, Lady Sian will receive the Pangula family's resources tilt, and more ore mining equipment and family wizards, which will help the Deep Sea Branch to accelerate the mining of non-metallic ores. Ms. Cyan currently has only 3 mining teams. The Pangula family will increase it to 15. We, Fagan and I, will also donate a sum of gold coins to the Deep Sea Branch, with an amount of no less than 50 million. ”

Dietrich's offer of match chips was okay.

Selena looked at Ronk beside her.

Whether or not to accept the competition application is up to my father.

Ronk is in charge of communicating with his father.

Now it's time for him to say the deep-sea division's contest chips.

"If the Deep Sea Branch loses, then we will divide a part of the mining order and hand it over to you Fagan to execute. Every time Sian gets an order, you Fagan will get a copy of the same size. Are you satisfied with this chip? Ronk said.

Dietrich pondered for a few seconds, hesitating:

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Ronke. I'll have to talk to His Excellency Fagan Pangula first. ”

"Please." Ronk nodded, and then whispered to Selena:

"I'll talk to my father about it, too."

"Okay." Selena responded.

Ronk took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter on the spot, informing his father of Dietrich's contest chips.

Dietrich did the same thing.

The magic messengers on both sides sent the letter out.

Dietrich was the first to receive a reply.

After reading the letter, he said:

"Mr. Ronke, His Excellency Fagan Pangula proposes to add a sum of no less than 50,000,000 gold coins to the tournament chips of the Deep Sea Branch. What do you think? If you agree, Fagan will approve the Deepsea Division's tournament chips. ”

Ronk Says:

"I think it's fine."

Selena also nodded, indicating that she had no objections.

"Boom," Ronk's magical conch appeared with a string of bubbles, and a letter was placed in front of him.

This is a reply from Ronk and Selena's father.

Ronk opened the letter and looked at it, his face changed inexplicably.

Selena glanced at the contents of the letter, her expression stiffened for half a second, and a look of restraining anger flashed in her eyes.

Their expressions changed, and Dietrich and Barr Stone saw it.

Dietrich looked at each other, and for a moment could not think of what was written on the letter, so that Selena and Ronk appeared completely unusual.

"Ahem."

Ronk coughed lightly and folded the letter back into the envelope.

He turned his head to look at Selena, only to see his sister's cold face.

Ronke's heart sank, he sighed silently, squeezed out a smile at the three Dietrich and said:

"That's right, Mr. Dietrich. The head of the Pomida family, His Excellency Minwak Pomida, believes that both of us have a very reasonable playing chip, but we should change the way we play. ”

"Changing the way the game is played?" Dietrich was stunned for a moment:

"Does Your Excellency Minwak Pomida mean to increase the number of islands to be explored?"

"Oh no, it's not." Ronk took a slight breath and said in a muffled voice:

"My father proposed that a wizard duel be used instead of exploring the islands to decide the winner."

"Duel," Dietrich was a little stunned.

Bar Stone, the enforcer of the rock bones, didn't expect things to come back for such a turn.

It's not that wizard duels can't be used as a substitute for exploring islands.

It's the Deepsea Branch, a wizarding force that specializes in deep-sea magic and water magic, that is naturally at a disadvantage when dealing with the Pangula family, who are good at rock and earth magic and metal magic...

If you play with Prospecting Islands, the odds of winning between the two sides are 55 to 5.

But if there is a wizard duel, it will become a three-seven open.

The Deep Sea Branch only has a 30% chance of winning, and the Pangula family has 70%.

The three-in-ten chance of winning the Deep Sea Branch can be said to come from foreign aid.

According to Decree No. 1, the dueling parties may receive assistance from outside, but the number of assistance cannot exceed one-third of the number of people participating in the fighting.

If it sends a total of 10 wizards to duel, then at least 7 of them are members of the Deep Sea Branch, and at most 3 wizards are from other forces.

Unless those 3 foreign aides can wear more than one and overturn several opponents at a time, the Deep Sea Branch will definitely lose.

Why would Minwak Pomida make such a proposal that is not good for the Deep Sea Branch?

Is this a brain show for him?

Dietrich was stunned.

What's the difference between this and the opponent sending his head up to cut it off for himself?

Dietrich's heart flowed with irrepressible joy.

He clutched his magic robe tightly with both hands and pressed the corners of his mouth tightly to prevent himself from laughing.

But soon, he became vigilant to prevent any shady tricks hidden in the Deep Sea Branch.

"Hmm... Mr. Ronke. Dietrich forced his composure and asked:

"Did His Excellency Minwak Pomida really say that? So if we use the wizard duel method to play, what kind of foreign aid will the Deep Sea Branch send? ”

Selena turned her head slightly and looked elsewhere, her expression extremely cold.

She gave up her voice and didn't want to answer the question.

Ronk stubbornly said:

"The foreign player who has been identified so far is Leno Jarvis. The rest of the foreign aid candidates have not yet been decided, and our Deep Sea Branch may turn to Hotamus for help. Of course, it is not excluded that there will be other wizarding forces invited to come to our aid. ”

Baal Rockbone's grayish-white eyeballs vibrate.

actually said it to Leno Jarvis!

Minwak Pomida really wants to use the name of the competition to force "Silent Girl" to the front of the stage!

As an enforcer, the Silent Wizard has mastered a powerful ability to break spells.

With them as a helping hand, maybe you can really achieve the feat of hitting multiple in one game.

At that time, the Pangula family's side is likely to fail miserably because of the intervention of the "Silent Girl".

When Ronk says "other wizarding forces have been invited to our aid", he definitely refers to the "Silent Maiden"!

Barr Rock Bone turned his head slightly, and looked at Dietrich Fagan with his peripheral vision.

A wizard who can become the heir of the family may be arrogant, but he will still have the brains he should have.

When he heard that Leno Jarvis would be going to war, Dietrich naturally thought of the Silent Girl.

If this kind of law enforcement wizard force is allowed to participate in the war, it is really difficult to say the final outcome of the battle.

However, the Deep Sea Branch can invite law enforcement wizard forces to help, and so can the Pangula family.

This is not the prerogative of a wizarding power.

As long as the remuneration is generous enough, it is not impossible to let the chief judge of the Pure Light Court come to help.

Dietrich pondered and sent another letter to Fagan Pangula.

Ronk also wrote several letters to his father.

After half an hour of correspondence and negotiations, the framework of the game was finally decided between the two sides.

A power race based on a wizard duel is inevitable.

The rest is all about the details.

The venue, the date, the format of the duel, the wizards who participated, the rules of the duel, the judge of the duel...

And so on and so forth.

These things will be decided in five days.

Selena spread her hands and completely messed up, leaving all the preparations for the competition to Ronke, saying that she would not participate in anything.

Seeing that Selena was clearly opposed to this matter, Ronk could only send the three Dietrich away first.

After Dietrich and the three teleported away, Selena said angrily:

"Why don't you object to your father's approach?! Don't you know Jarvis he's injured?! He had suffered a severe spell backlash not long ago, and he hadn't recovered much yet. You accepted your father's approach without even thinking about it! Have you forgotten that Jarvis gave you magic scrolls and lightning energy?! ”

"Selena, Selena, dissipate." Ronke hurriedly reassured:

"Jarvis did help the Deep Sea Branch, but it was all paid, and we paid him accordingly. We don't owe him anything. Also, my father's intention was not to let Jarvis personally participate in the war..."

Ronk put a few letters in front of Selena, pointed to the contents of the letters, and said:

"Look, Selena, father said that Jarvis just needs to summon thunderclouds and provide magic scrolls. He himself did not have to go to the ring and participate in a duel. ”

Selena looked at the letter, and the anger in her heart was not visible at all:

"Summon a thundercloud? Are you kidding, Ronk. Jarvis was attacked by spells, casting some simple spells at best. You and your father even want him to summon thunderclouds. I can tell you, don't want me to go to Jarvis for help. He does have a cooperative relationship with the Deep Sea Branch, but that doesn't mean he has to help the Deep Sea Branch. ”

Selena's anger made Ronk grow for a while.

Ronk pressed down on his excited sister and said:

"I'll write to Jarvis. Maybe he just had some magic scrolls in his hand that summoned thunderclouds and didn't work..."

"Humph!" Selena snorted coldly, turned around, and gave an eviction order:

"Wizard duels are all up to you, Ronk. Say it yourself, you will write to Jarvis. I don't want to be a part of this disgusting thing. Now, I'm going to work, please leave. ”

Ronk touched his head, feeling melancholy.

He collected the letters on the table and teleported away.

"Ah~~"

A long sigh rang out in the study.

Selena's shoulders drooped, frustrated, decadent, and somewhat disappointed in her family.

On the premise of knowing that Li Nuo was seriously injured, his father even wanted to let Li Nuo participate in the duel, which undoubtedly caused the image of his father to be greatly damaged in Selena's heart.

"Jarvis... What are we going to do..."Selena asked in her mind.

Just like last time, after receiving the letter, Li Nuo activated his "telepathy" with Selena.

Through Selena's retelling, he learned about the whole meeting.

"Don't worry, Selena." Li Nuo said gently:

"It's more complicated than you think."

"Hmm... I can feel it..."Selena covered her face with both hands:

"I don't understand the dispute between you and your father anymore, isn't it a magical contract? Why is he targeting you like this. ”

Li Nuo smiled and said:

"Do you know wild magic?"

"Wild magic? What wild magic? Selena was confused.

"Due to the existence of the 'Promotion Fortress', there are two types of magic: wild magic and this magic..."

Leno recounts the secret knowledge he learned from Benchi Gerena to Selena.

The spell I use to summon thunderclouds is a wild magic. The more I use it, the faster it will be tamed by the Ascend Fortress and become a magic that all wizards can develop. ”

Lino's words seemed to have a magical power, and Selena listened intently.

"So, do you understand? Selena. Your father wants to master my wild magic, and he must force me to use it more often, reducing the time it takes for this wild magic to be transformed into magic. Only then can Hotamus develop the same spell faster, and the Deep Sea Branch will be able to escape my influence and have its own thunderclouds. ”

"Wild magic... Ben Magic..."Ascend to the Fortress"... There is still such a connection..."Selena was shocked and came back to her senses:

"Then you can't do what Ronk does, Jarvis. The wild magic that summons thunderclouds is your foundation. You must not participate in the duel, otherwise it will speed up the taming process. ”

Li Nuo comforted:

"It's not that bad, take it easy. I'll negotiate with Ronk, you don't have to worry about me. ”

"Uh-huh," Selena tapped her chin.

"There's one thing I'd like to ask you about, Selena." Leno asked:

"Suppose I wanted to take some countermeasures against your father, would you mind?"

Selena's eyes were empty, and she was in a trance for a few seconds:

“… I... I don't think I would mind... Seeing you suffer and fall into passivity makes me both uncomfortable and anxious. You don't deserve to be treated like that. ”

Selena sighed helplessly:

"After knowing the concept of wild magic and this magic, I also thought clearly, unless you hand over the spell blueprint, my father will definitely not let you go."

"Yes." Li Nuo echoed.

Selena bit her lip and made a decision:

"Jarvis, I will not interfere in any of your decisions, and I will not participate in the conflict between you and your father. I unconditionally support any decision you make. I will actively shun everything that is directed at you. Do you think that's okay? ”

"Very good, very good, I don't want you to be involved in this matter, otherwise you will be hurt multiple times at the same time."

Li Nuo paused:

"Oh, Ronk has a letter. I'll deal with him first. You get busy first. ”

"Okay~" After Selena made a decision, her mood improved a little.

…

…

Somewhere in the sea of black folds.

Li Nuo surfaced to the surface and activated the "Levitation Technique" on his magic boots, levitating several meters into the air.

The waves several meters high swayed under his feet, and Li Nuo used the sound of the tide as a companion to communicate with Ronke.

Although Ronke can't get used to Li Nuo, he still has the etiquette that should be there.

Since he is looking for Li Nuo's help, the remuneration is indispensable.

On behalf of the Pomida family and the Deep Sea Branch, Ronk negotiated with Li Nuo about the amount of the honorarium.

After some communication, the two decided:

Li Nuo provided three magic scrolls that summoned thunderclouds for a fee, and each of them had a thunderbolt power of no less than 100 million lightning energy.

Ronk paid Li Nuo a reward of 150 million gold coins per magic scroll.

If you don't consider the research value of thunderclouds, the unit price of 150 million gold coins is just right.

After all, for every 10,000 points of thunder and lightning energy, the open price in the Unas Ring is only about 4,000 gold coins.

100 million points of lightning energy is 40 million gold coins.

The selling price of 150 million gold coins has more than tripled on the basis of this cost, and Li Nuo can be said to have earned blood.

But if the research value of Lei Yun is included, then Li Nuo's situation can only be described as a blood loss.

Well, that's okay.

It is impossible for Hotamus to crack the "Thundercloud Technique", which is the confidence given to Li Nuo by deconstructing the core system.

It is estimated that after the Pomida family continuously invested billions of gold coins and bought thunderclouds from Li Nuo, they gradually realized that something was wrong.

But at that time, Li Nuo may have long been an unattainable existence of the Pomida family, and he didn't have to pay attention to the other party's inquiries at all.

After Leno had finished dealing with Ronk's affairs, he took out a pen and paper and wrote another letter to send to Bar Stone.

Since Minwak Pomida is unkind, then don't blame him for being unjust.

After the letter to Barr Stone was sent, Leno wrote a third letter.

This letter is addressed to Professor Erica.

Li Nuo asked the other party to officially sign a magic contract with the "Laron Rock Bone" after the wizard duel here in the Deep Sea Branch.

Li Nuo sent out the third letter and waited quietly above the sea for a while.

Within about 10 minutes, three letters of reply appeared in his hands.

Ronk Pomida agreed to Li Nuo's offer and repeatedly assured that Li Nuo would not have to compete in person.

Bar Stone represents "Laron Rock Bone" and sincerely welcomes the friendship from "Silent Maiden".

Professor Erica first agreed to sign a magic contract, and then began to talk about asking Li Nuo to come back to class...

Li Nuo sneered, flew down, burrowed into the sea, and continued his great deconstruction.
