The young man was frightened, and let Liman tuft at his clothes, not knowing for a moment what to do.

The chief who was still leading the team hurriedly stepped forward and responded: "If you go back to your lordship, it is independently produced by Master Bray of the manufacturing factory." ”

"Bray, Bray!" Liman's knuckles were white, and his face was as heavy as water.

"Hmph, take me to him." Liman let go of his hands and said to the man who had just answered.

The man didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly led the way in front, although no one present knew his specific position and identity, but he also knew that he couldn't afford to provoke him.

Inside the manufacturing factory, Bray sat in a chair, waiting for the person he was negotiating with, and the Mithril wand leaned against him, beware of the other party's lack of martial virtues.

This thing is obviously very important to them, and it is always good to be more mentally prepared, although he is alone, as long as the magic wand is in hand, he thinks he can still get out of it with his whole body.

"Bang"

As the door was opened, the messy Riman appeared in front of Bray, and said straight to the point: "You are Bray, and you made that mark?" ”

Bray stood up and said with a smile, "That's right, it's my mark, I think we can talk about it." ”

"Humph!" Liman sat down, looked at him coldly, and said, "Where did you get it?" ”

Bray was not annoyed by his attitude, looked around and said, "Are you sure you want me to say it here?" ”

It was then that Liman realized that he was too anxious, and this was indeed not the place to talk about such things.

"I think we can talk about it here." A hearty voice came from the doorway, and the two looked back to find that Ryan had appeared at the door at some point, looking at them with a smile on his face.

Ryan said to the bewildered melon-eating crowd around him: "Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that there is going to be a negotiation here, so let's end today's work, hard work everyone." ”

There was no one present who didn't know Ryan, and seeing that the eviction order was issued, everyone had to stop watching and leave the factory one after another.

The craftsmen on the other side were no exception, and they all saluted Ryan and left in an orderly manner.

The three magicians who had just come out were very dissatisfied in their hearts, but the next moment all their dissatisfaction vanished, because in their perception, several powerful auras suddenly appeared, and each rank was above them.

The backs of several people were suddenly wet with sweat, and they suddenly understood that something was wrong, and they immediately did not dare to stay, and almost ran away from here.

After a while, a few people stopped, and one of them said with a sigh of relief: "What the hell is that person doing, making this kind of battle, I'm afraid that the powerhouses of this viscount are all here, right?" ”

"What's the matter, it's none of our business, let's go."

"Yes, yes, yes"

——————

After all the irrelevant personnel left, Ryan went straight to Bray and sat down, and said with a smile: "I was reading a book in the study just now, and someone informed me that Master Liman had come here to ask for the guilt, so I was so scared that I hurried over, what happened?" ”

There seemed to be a smile on his face, but it was cold in Bray's eyes, and he suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little too big today.

Originally, he thought that a territory that had only recently developed should not have any strong people, but just now, he felt that he was locked by the qi of several strong people at the same time.

There is one on the roof, directly above his head, at least the rank of a high-ranking knight.

There was one behind the wall behind him, there were fluctuations in magic, and it was initially inferred that it was a high-level magician, and there were two more outside the gate, a high-level knight and an intermediate knight.

If you add an intermediate magician and a big knight beside him, he is really surrounded by groups.

"Your Excellency, why bother to be so excited, I just want to talk to you." Bray clenched the Mithril Staff in his hand, but his mouth was calm.

Ryan smiled: "The master has misunderstood, since I am sitting here, I naturally want to solve it in a peaceful way." If you can, tell me how you know the runes. ”

As long as you don't just want to kill me. Bray breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "So you call this a rune, and I got it from an ancient ruin, carved on a metal plate. ”

Ryan didn't react yet, and Liman's eyes turned red instantly, and he asked eagerly, "What ruins, where are they?" ”

Bray was taken aback by his movements, and the fireball technique that he had been holding almost launched, he said with an unhappy face: "If you want a position, you have to show a little sincerity, right?" ”

Seeing that Liman was about to lose control of himself, Ryan hurriedly asked, "Okay, what do you want, or what do you want in exchange?" ”

"First of all, if you want the metal plate in my hand, use the runes in your hand to exchange it for ...... with me."

"Impossible." Before he finished his words, Ryan flatly refused, what are you kidding, what he wants is exclusive rune technology, how can he exchange it with him?

Bray was stunned for a moment, how can there be such a negotiation, why don't you pull me a little, what the hell did you refuse directly?

"Your Excellency, this is your sincerity?"

Ryan waved his hand and said sincerely: "Sir, our sincerity is beyond doubt, as long as you are willing." Gold, silver, jewelry, jasper agate, cultivation resources, as long as I have it, you can mention it, but the runes can't. ”

Bray's fat face was distorted with anger, if it weren't for the fact that Lane was so powerful, he would want to flip the table, this is to sign the overlord clause?

I have the heart to leave, but the rune is useless in my hand, this is a rare opportunity, and I can't give it up. Besides, it seems that I can't leave if I want to go at this time, and I don't have the confidence to lift the table!

There was an eerie silence for a moment.

Suddenly, Liman, who had been keeping his face calm, spoke, "You shouldn't know how to use runes, right?" ”

Ryan's eyes lit up, if that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about.

Bray's heart sank: 'How did he see it?' ’

Although what the other party said was the truth, he couldn't just admit it, once it was revealed that he wouldn't use it, he would completely lose his bargaining chips.

"It's not as thorough as yours, but it's still a little bit of a lesson." He said nonsense with his eyes open.

Liman, who was on the side, laughed straight out loud, as if Bray had told a funny joke, and laughed so hard that he panicked.

"With you, you can't even draw runes, and you dare to say that you have research? You don't actually know how to use runes at all, and the one engraved on the drill bit is one you copied, right? ”

Liman told the truth in one word, although the other party carved it, it was very standard on the surface, but there was not a single dark line, if it was a normal portrayal, the bright line should be the last to be completed.

If you can't draw, what else can you talk about?

Bray didn't expect that he would be seen through so quickly, and there was no point in pretending to be garlic again, he spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that I was a clown, okay, I just want how to use runes, you can do whatever you want." ”

The situation was reversed at once, and the initiative was completely in Ryan's hands.

After knowing that the other party didn't actually know how to use it, Ryan suddenly put his mind at ease, and the whole person was relaxed, as long as he couldn't use it, even if he was carrying that piece of metal plate was a piece of scrap metal.

"Let me tell you bluntly, Mr. Borley, it is impossible for us to get out of the runes and how to use them, it is useless for you to hold these runes, it is better for you to sell them to us at a price, and I will give you a satisfactory price."

Bray was silent when he heard this, he is not a bad money owner, and traveling everywhere also requires a lot of resources to support, but he also saw the resoluteness of Ryan's attitude, he believes that as long as he says no words, it will be difficult for him to go out today.

"There's actually a way to get the best of both worlds." At this time, Liman suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of the two.

He had now regained the composure that belonged to the master, and he stood up and said to Bray, "If you really want to learn runes, why don't you choose to join us?"

As long as you contribute to the territory and don't publicize the existence of runes, I can teach you everything.

I know you're a gifted magician, but I want to say that the runes are more powerful than you can imagine, and the truth lies within.

You can have a metal plate with the runes on it and find it, proving that this is the guidance and arrangement of fate, and you can think about it. ”

Ryan's eyes lit up suddenly, this is indeed a good way, in this way, not only can you get a metal plate with runes printed on it, but also add a capable general to the territory, this is a high-level magician!

"I think it's the best thing to do, Mr. Bray, and believe me, no one can surpass Master Liman when it comes to runes.

And runes aren't as simple as they seem, and it's almost impossible to get started on your own, even if you know how to use them. Ryan said seriously.

Bray was in a dilemma, and joining was certainly a good choice, but he was a person who couldn't calm down, otherwise he wouldn't have come out of the ivory tower to travel.

If they choose to join, with the importance they attach to this, won't they be under house arrest in disguise?

Finally...... What to choose?

Bray hesitated, but he had a unique solution.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a gleaming gold coin, which was smaller than Kindler's, but more delicate.

On its back, it is engraved with a church motif, while on the front, it is engraved with a lifelike goddess of fate.

Yes, although Bray is a magician, he does not believe in the goddess of magic, but a small goddess of fate, and is a devout believer.

This gold coin was obtained from the Church of the Goddess of Fate when he officially began his travels, and he had carried it with him all these years, and if there was anything he couldn't choose, it was decided by the way he tossed the gold coin.

After all these years, it has always been able to make the right choice for Bray.

"Ding"

Bray's thumb was slightly forced, and the gold coin was suddenly bounced into the air, and the gold coin spun extremely fast in the air, and was held by him the moment it fell in front of him.

When I opened my finger, I saw that it was the side engraved with the goddess of fate.

Bray took a deep breath, stood up and said solemnly: "Okay, I decided to join, this is a choice of fate." ”

I didn't expect to see such an ancient way of making decisions as coin toss in another world. Ryan complained in his heart, but said with a smile on his face, "You made the right choice, Master Bray. ”

Liman also nodded slightly, he also realized the advantage of being crowded, in the past, he did it alone, and it often took a long time to complete an experiment.

And now, with a powerful assistant, the [Crusher], a large rune creation that has never been touched before, can be completed in a short time.

Because he doesn't need to worry about unimportant chores, he can now devote all his energy to the main direction, and the progress is several times faster than before.

It used to be troublesome, but now he wants the more people in the laboratory as much as possible, and this one named Bray is pretty good in his opinion, and if you want to make something like a drill bit that can't be done by manpower, you can leave it to him.

"In that case, let's sign the contract now." Ryan grinned, such a baby bump can't let go.

Bray naturally has no opinion, he is a person who believes in fate, and since fate has made a choice, then he chooses to take it seriously and give it his all.

The magician's contract is naturally not as simple as a few pieces of paper, and Liman takes the initiative to draw up a contract that satisfies both parties, and then signs it under the witness of the god of the contract, and then it is finished.

The content of the contract is roughly that Bray needs to work for the territory after learning, and cannot spread any news about the runes privately, and violating it will be severely punished by the god of the contract.

In this way, Bray can be regarded as "selling" himself to Ryan.

After a negotiation, Bray got his wish and could learn runes, Ryan gained a high-level magician, and Liman had a high-level workforce, so it can be said that everyone was happy.

Then, Bray also happily took out his metal plate and handed it to Liman, who squatted aside and looked at it carefully.

He was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the metal plate contained fifty-six runes, of which only sixteen overlapped with those he had mastered.

There are ten more that he has not yet completed, but this one is very complete, which can be regarded as a surprise, and the remaining thirty are completely different, which is an invaluable asset for Liman.

And it also reminded him that he originally thought that the runes were the ones he got, but now it seems that he took it for granted, and there are still many runes left out.

According to Brey, this metal plate was found in a ruin in the mountains of the Copper Furnace Kingdom to which the dwarves belonged, and it should have been an elven relic in the style.

At the beginning, Liman's mentor also obtained a broken alchemy core in the elven ruins, but now it seems that this is not a coincidence.

However, why are there elven ruins in those places, and why did the elves abandon the runes and embark on the path of magic technology?
