Standing on the edge of Genting Garden, it seems that you can take in the scenery of the entire Heijiao River Land, with the mountains undulating and the river rushing.

"Beautiful, isn't the Black Jiaohe River beautiful?" Keystone folded his hands behind his back and asked indifferently.

"It's beautiful." Duke replied.

"Grandpa likes to stand here the most, looking at the entire Heijiao River, and further north is the oil area, which is rich in black oil, but the environment is far worse than the Heijiao River." Kiria said.

"Don't mention any fire and oil land, I have a headache when I think of Bernoulli, such a good place in Cuihai Valley is actually arched to outsiders!" The older Keystone gets, the more naughty he becomes, and he never hides what he wants, "The reason why grandpa likes to stand here and watch the scenery is to protect this land." ”

"My lord is really the pillar of the Optimus of the Black Jiaohe Land." Duke gave a small slap on the back.

"Hey, Optimus Prime, hey!" Keystone was satisfied with this statement, but quickly sighed again, "It's a pity that the Green Sea Valley can't hold it." ”

"Then you can't blame Grandpa, after all, there are wurm."

"You misunderstood what Grandpa meant, what about me, I mean that the meat of Cuihai Valley failed to rot in our Black Jiaohe Land and was robbed by Bernoulli!"

Keystone bared his teeth and said, "I was going to arrange for Williams to go to the open up, but Williams was reluctant to leave in Shenjiao City. There are also the descendants of the Mubiya family, who directly passed the news to the Bernoulli Mage Tower! ”

Armages have a deep regional bias, especially in this kind of frontier land.

Duke didn't have this kind of prejudice, he said with a smile: "My lord, the Bernoulli Earth Master established a family in the Cuihai Valley, and the future will also strengthen the strength of the Black Jiaohe Land, after all, the Cuihai Valley is far away from the Fire Oil Land, and it is impossible for his family to be willing to go far. ”

"You have a lot of patterns, but I just see Bernoulli unhappy, old-fashioned, and so afraid of death."

Keystone snorted and continued, "If it were me, I would have fought with the black jade horseshoe crab dragon and killed me by blowing up the spirit core!" ”

Duke thought to himself that Bernoulli had come to open up the family, not to be a martyr.

If he doesn't completely occupy the Cuihai Valley, doesn't wait for the Seven Towers Federation to be knighted, and doesn't refine the spirit beast bloodline for the family, I'm afraid Bernoulli will be unwilling to die.

But there is no need to say this.

Keystone knew everything, he was just straight to the point.

"By the way, my lord, I have one thing in mind." Duke thought of the Worm Ocean in Cuihai Valley and decided to report this matter, "I went to Cuihai Valley once before, looking for a marriage partner for one of my ant spirit animals, and accidentally bumped into something. ”

"What's the matter?"

"The Ocean of Insects, I bumped into the Ocean of Insects eruption in the Cuihai Valley, and I also saw a horseshoe crab that looked similar to the Black Jade Horseshoe Crab Dragon."

"The Ocean of Worms? Are you sure you've hit the Ocean of Bugs? Keystone's eyes widened.

Kyria also looked at Duke with beautiful eyes, surprised that this extremely rare event could be touched by Duke.

"Sure, I thought the upper echelons should know, so I didn't say it, and I talked about it here today, so I remembered to talk about it."

That's what Duke thought.

He also wants to find out some news from the high-level about the ocean of insects, and then see if he can find an opportunity to make a profit from it and rescue the chicken's grandmother.

Who would have thought that after inquiring about it, he would be the only party to the Worm Ocean.

"I've never bumped into an ancient phantom once in my life, and I actually called you kid to bump into it?" Keystone looked Duke up and down, "I didn't see how amazing your kid is, how can he be so deeply favored by the spirit?" ”

"Probably...... It's preference. Duke replied in a serious manner.

Keystone rolled his eyes: "The Ocean of Worms is the least threatening of the ancient ghosts, no matter how those ancient ghosts are wrapped in spirituality, they are gradually decaying in time, it can be said that you are really lucky, if you encounter an ancient era phantom such as the Sea of Fish, I am afraid that it will kill people." ”

"I'm scared when I talk about it."

"Where there is danger, there is opportunity, little Duke, what chance did you hit in the ocean of worms?" Keystone asked curiously.

He had never encountered such a rarity, and it was undoubtedly a great regret on the path of exploring the spiritual mysteries.

"It's like watching a show, and the other benefits really don't fall, but I did realize a vision of a bug."

"Do you have a new vision?" Kiria on the side was surprised.

The heart is even more inexplicably sour, everyone calls her a lady of the sky, and Duke is undoubtedly a proud son of the sky.

Everyone is arrogant, why is there such a big gap.

Since she was promoted to Armage, she had to work hard to reorganize her meditation method, but Duke's vision was like drinking water.

"Yes." Duke nodded.

Keystone also exclaimed: "Little Duke, I seriously doubt that you jumped out of the fountain of spirit, what is the difference between this and growing up in the fountain of spirit...... It's the right choice for you to join Xibidi, it's a hundred times more interesting than any outlets! ”

It was getting dark.

Keystone took Duke directly back to his small villa, asked the housekeeper to serve the food, and chatted with Duke and Kiria while eating.

"My lord, I'm curious, the Spiritual Spring in Cuihai Valley is only a medium-sized spring, how can it break out into the Ocean of Worms?" Duke rarely saw an old antique who lived to be one hundred and ninety years old, so he regarded him as a living encyclopedia.

"Medium?" Keystone shook his head, "Before you say the ocean of insects, although I have doubts, I do think that it is a medium-sized spring, but now I can already be sure that this spring is not simple, it is definitely a large spring!" ”

"Grandpa, didn't you say you went to see the spring yourself?" Kiria was puzzled.

"I've been there, I've personally determined that judging from the performance of the spring, as well as the intensity of the interference of the magical spirit field, it can indeed only be regarded as a medium-sized spiritual spring. However, on the edge of the medium-sized spiritual spring, there are two three-ringed tree kings, which is unreasonable. ”

The 3-ring spirit plant, known as the king of trees, needs to be strongly spiritually prompted, otherwise it will be difficult to survive.

"You must know that the spring in my Shenjiao City was only two 3-ringed tree kings, and there were also wulong guardian springs......" Keystone took a glass of wine and continued, "Little Duke said that he experienced the Ocean of Worms, and this made me realize that I am afraid this spring is not simple. ”

Duke hurriedly asked, "My lord, why is it not simple?" ”

"It doesn't hurt to tell you that this spring is probably half blocked for some reason, so that it will show the characteristics of a medium-sized spring, but it should actually be a large spring!"

"Could it be artificially blocked?"

"No, the Black Snake family was the first to discover this spring, but they didn't have the ability to block it, and as for Bernoulli, he only learned about this spring after us, so he didn't have a chance to do anything at all." Keystone squinted and smiled, "But this old thing, must have found a clue!" ”

He went on to explain, "If it was an ordinary medium-sized spiritual spring, Bernoulli would have asked the Arcane Mentor to come over and hunt the black jade horseshoe crab dragon. Now he didn't invite him, but instead created the illusion of arguing with the arcane teacher, just to cover up, for fear of being spied on by the arcane teacher. ”

Duke nodded, and said along Keystone's train of thought: "If it is a large spring, it will definitely have to build a city, I'm afraid it won't be able to be the fief of the Bernoulli family, is he worried about this?" ”

"Definitely!" Keystone suddenly sneered, "I look at him, I'm afraid he wants to daydream and break through the entrance of the 4th and 5th rings with the help of a large spiritual spring, and be on an equal footing with Lao Tzu!" ”

said.

Keystone immediately raised his glass: "Come, little Duke, the old man wants to toast you, you have done a great job this time, if you hadn't met the ocean of insects...... If you really want to be succeeded by this old thing stealing chickens, wouldn't the black Jiaohe land be occupied by doves and magpies' nests! ”

After clinking glasses with Duke, Keystone took a drink and said, "Your credit is huge, and you can do whatever you want!" ”

Although Duke is not very well understood by the importance of the large spiritual fountain.

But this did not prevent him from understanding that he had hit a big luck, so he thought of something and decided to seize this opportunity: "My lord, if I can, I want the ancient spirit in the spiritual spring of Cuihai Valley, the ancient spirit of a trilobite. ”

"You even know that there are ancient spirits in that spring, and you know that it is a trilobite?" Keystone was surprised, "Your teacher doesn't know, oh, Penrose told you?" ”

"No, the mentor didn't tell me, I knew it from an elf."

"Pixies?"

"Chick, come out and see you." Duke patted himself on the stomach.

Then a large turquoise tadpole swam out, a little confused, and first saw Kiria next to it.

Suddenly grinned: "Ouch Duke, isn't this the big wave girl you have in mind?" ”

Smack!

Duke slapped the chick on the table, and then explained with a smile: "I'm sorry, the chick grew up in an ant pile and is a little lacking in tutoring. ”

Kiria's eyes lit up, attracted by the beautiful appearance of the chick, and she didn't notice who the big wave girl was called by the chick.

I can't take my eyes off the chicks.

The chick was slapped on the table, and Duke, who had the same heart as Duke, knew that he was a little reckless just now, although it had a bad mouth, it was not a fool, and it knew what to say on what occasion.

So just lie down on the table and pretend to be dead.

On the other side, Keystone, after the chick came out, looked at the chick with a smile on his face. He doesn't care at all about who the chick shouts about who is the big wave girl, and who has the big wave girl in mind, but marvels at Duke's good luck.

It is said that he obtained the relic of a senior arcane mage from the forest, and mastered a powerful arcane weapon in advance.

Then one glance at the mysterious vine of the United Tower, and you will understand the vine of protection and mystery.

I went to the No. 3 well area of Cuihai Valley, and I realized the vision after going down the well, and I accidentally bumped into the ocean of insects before, and I realized the vision again......

Only now did he know that he had picked up an elf early.

"Tell me, little Duke, are you related to that trilobite Elder Spirit?" Keystone couldn't help but ask.

"What?" Duke wondered.

"Were you also born in the spiritual fountain of the Green Sea Valley?"

Duke realized that Keystone was joking, and replied, "When you say that, I also have a little doubt that my birth may be extraordinary." ”

"You kid really know how to fight snakes with sticks, but how strong the spiritual favor is for you, cherish this favor, boy!"

"I know."

"Such an elf, the old man also has one at home, but it is a docile caterpillar, and I will ask Gina to bring the caterpillar over when I go back, and follow this ...... of yours Chicks, right, getting to know Chicks may be able to make a reference to each other in evolution. ”

"My chick was delivered to my door by a crypt marching ant." Duke recounted what had happened.

"Bugs are also affectionate, but you said you got the news of trilobites from chicks, why is that?"

"When humans have not yet discovered Cuihai Valley, the ancient spirit should have discovered that a group of ants raised a little elf, so they often come to the ant nest to teach the chick some knowledge, and also claim to be the chick's grandmother."

"I see." Keystone nodded.

Then he pondered for a while and said, "Originally, the ownership of the ancient spirit has been determined to be held by Stephen Yihu, and his family's mage tower lacks a tower spirit. ”

Just when Duke thought it was no fun, Keystone said, "But you have done such a great thing, and if you don't appreciate it, I will greet Stephen and ask him to give you the trilobite." When we break Bernoulli's trick and end the pioneering war, the trilobite will be yours. ”

"Thank you, sir!" Duke rejoiced.

The chick who pretended to be dead on the table was immediately resurrected with full blood: "Wow, Duke, we're going to rescue grandma, woo woo woo, I'm so moved!" ”

"Alright, don't embarrass me, be quiet, and go back to the sea of qi." Duke patted the chick.

With the light of Keystone Fury, not only did he whitewash the chick, but he also successfully caught the chick's grandmother, and he was no longer afraid of being robbed.

Kyria suddenly said with some shame: "Duke, can you let me hug the chick, I haven't seen a tadpole-like elf yet." ”

Duke immediately glanced at the chick.

The chick's eyes widened as well, looking back at Duke.

In an instant, one person and one elf had already exchanged countless heartfelt words, and then reached a unanimous agreement, Duke raised his head and handed the chick over with a smile: "Hold and play, the chick likes to eat spirit crystals, I haven't had time to feed it today." ”

"I'll ask Butler Gina to help me get the spirit crystal!" Instead of picking up the chick, Kiria turned around and called out to Gina, the housekeeper.

It just so happened that Gina was going to hug the caterpillar elf, so she could bring the spirit crystal with her.

Returning to his seat, he took the chick and put it in his arms.

The chick also obediently let her hold it, rubbing her head against Kiria from time to time, and behaved very well-behaved and sensible.

Not for a moment.

Gina came back with the elf of the Kingston Mage Tower, and carried it in a basket, which was a fat snow-white caterpillar, and the whole body was like jade, without a trace of disgust, but full of cuteness.

The caterpillar does not seem to be able to fly, and when it sees the chick, it immediately crawls to the edge of the basket and looks at the chick curiously.

No mouth opening or closing.

But there was already a gentle little girl's voice: "Hello, what's your name?" Are you also an elf? ”

"My name is Chick, and I am the future elf, no, the future elf king!" The chick swam out of Kiria's arms, came to the caterpillar's side, and circled the caterpillar, "Little white worm, what's your name?" ”

"My name is Kikyo." The caterpillar replied.

"Kikyo? It's not as good as my name, and you don't look as good as me, but it doesn't matter, follow me in the future! "The chick flicks its thick tail and a pair of short hind legs and makes a flexing motion in the air, which is a sign of its excitement.

Letting the two elves play, Duke quickly finished the dinner.

Seeing that the time was not early, he offered to take his leave.

"Go back and keep the matter of the Worm Ocean secret, otherwise you may get into trouble if you are targeted by Bernoulli." Keystone admonished.

"Thank you for the reminder, I'll keep it a secret."

"Well, little Kiria, you go and send little Duke, grandpa is tired."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Kiria sent Duke up the spirit ladder and went all the way down to the first floor of the Mage Tower: "If you put the chick in the sea of qi, will it be very stuffy?" ”

"I don't have time to play with it." Duke said.

"Then it must be stuffy."

"If you have some free time, you can go to my office, I'll call the chick out, and you can play with it for a while?"

"This ...... All right. Kiria smiled and nodded.

Duke raised an eyebrow, and had already walked to the gate of the Mage's Tower, where his shuttle had been driven by the driver to the door.

"Okay, don't send it again, I'll go back first."

"Okay, slow down on the road."

With a wave of his hand, the two said goodbye, and the shuttle silently disappeared along the main road and around the corner.

The lights were bright, and the Kingston Mage Tower and the castle were all replaced with strong lights, and at night, it seemed as if the whole mountain was lit up.

Kiria stood at the gate, watching the shuttle disappear before turning and walking back.

As if thinking of something funny, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and his youthful and beautiful face shone brightly under the light of the street lamp.

……

Since having dinner at the Keystone Wizard's Tower, Duke has felt that Kiria's relationship with him has improved significantly.

Occasionally, when Kiriya was tired of cultivating, she would go to his office and play with the chickens for a while.

Not to mention.

The chicken, a big green-skinned tadpole with a smelly mouth, plays tricks when there is nothing to do, but it is very pleasing to girls. Not to mention the little assistant Mula Li, who begs to play with the chicks every day, even Kiriya can't forget it, and brings spirit crystals to it every day.

"Saved me a feeding fee." Duke didn't look at it lightly.

didn't feel that the relationship between them had improved by leaps and bounds just because Kiriya had come to the office a few times, so what should I do.

Concentrate on your studies and work.

During the day, he was busy making cards and researching topics in the tower, and after work, he returned to the Suktara Master Tower on time, and after eating, he followed the teacher to learn alchemy.

Time flies, and a few days pass in a flash.

With the work of the financial team, after the handover of Duke, Clelinda, and Xibdi, Duke, who relied on the support of his teacher, successfully purchased 1% of the shares of Xibirdi Ling Mining Company, and became a member of the small circle of Master Ao in Shenjiao City.

"Xibidi dividends once a year, and the dividends of 1% of the shares can probably be distributed to about 70,000 gold dragons." The treasurer reports to Duke.

In other words, Xibidi can dig more than seven million golden dragons every year by digging spirit mines.

The Giant of Light now relies on strong light technology, and its valuation is rising gradually, and it has a scale of three million, but it is not as much as the money that Xibidi makes from mining in half a year.

"Good." Duke nodded, "Although the transfer of shares has been completed, the work of your financial team cannot be stopped, you have to supervise my industry, and in addition, you must also hand over with Youshi Garment Company." ”

You's Clothing Company was one of his previous three affiliated companies, and the remaining two were Shenjiao City Hotel and the Giant of Light Spirit Artifact Company.

Now, in order to buy the shares of the Xibi Diling Mining Company, he sold the shares of You's Clothing Company.

In fact, the couple of Upiers and Muruth have no intention of running You's clothing company anymore, and the 2% stake of the giant of light, and the dividends in the next year will far exceed the income of You's clothing company.

Duke spoke with Eupiers about his appointment to the Giant of Light.

Yupirs is already on the move, and now he's thinking about it.

"Don't worry, my lord, my team members and I are taking over your property one by one and helping you calculate every income and expenditure."

"Very good."

Duke is very satisfied with this, although it costs a lot of money to raise a financial team, but his industry is getting bigger and bigger, and he must have a professional to help him take care of it.

Moreover, there is a contract, which can save him a lot of worries.

Don't worry about your finance team stealing from you.

After sending the treasurer away, he went to work at Penrose's Mage Tower, and not long after he entered the office, the leader of the research team under his command rushed to report to him on the progress of the project, and all the experimental contents he had formulated had been completed.

The leader of the group was his accustomed spiritual apprentice, the old man of the Mage Tower, Dras.

Respectfully submit a data report: "Your Excellency, please take a look. ”

"Yes, go find Mulali, she will arrange your rewards." After Duke got the test report, he immediately handed it over to Xiaoyi for calculation.

Then let Xiaoyi help him write an excellent paper.

He then typed the paper onto the paper.

The ink-scented paper was booked on a stapler, and Duke shook off his latest paper in a good mood, got up and walked to his supervisor's office.

It's been almost two years since he came to Penrose's Tower, and since last year, he has steadily begun to produce papers on various topics.

"Mentor." Duke entered the office.

Mentor Penrose is on vacation today and spends the whole day in the Mage Tower dealing with research tasks: "Why are you here?" ”

"I'll hand in my dissertation." Duke handed the paper over.

"How quickly did you write your paper?" Penrose was taken aback, "I toured the Mage Tower yesterday morning, and I saw that your research group was doing experiments, why was it so fast?" Don't fool around with papers, papers are more important than experiments. ”

"How so?" Duke smiled, not discerning anything.

Penrose opened the paper, looked carefully, and the more he looked at it, the deeper the frown became, not that the paper was poorly written.

Opposite.

The paper written by Xiaoyi, on the basis of solid data and clear organization, has greatly polished the text effect, making the content of the paper no longer a dry data display, but both interesting and gorgeous, as beautiful as prose.

You can also insert some fashionable academic stalks from time to time.

It makes people read, not only does not have the slightest sense of boredom, but also occasionally smiles in a comfortable and natural state.

This is naturally due to the fact that Duke has continued to read a large number of excellent papers in the past few years, which has allowed Xiaoyi to expand the database, refine the essence of excellent papers, and greatly strengthen his pen power.

As a 9-ring level of arcane weapons, Xiaoyi is showing its proper style little by little.

"Shhh Before Penrose knew it, he finished reading the paper of more than 12,000 words, and then involuntarily gasped.

The content value of this paper is not to mention, but the writing alone is enough to shock him.

Rao has been writing papers for decades, and he has put a lot of effort into improving his writing, and he can't write such a smooth and beautiful paper.

"Tutor, how is my thesis?" Duke asked.

Penrose put the paper down, pondered for a while, and said slowly: "It's not bad, some sentences can be slightly modified and modified, and they can be used for publication in "Runwu City Spirit Card...... Speaking of which, you have already published two papers in "Runwu City Spirit Card" this year. ”

"Yes, three articles were published in "Runwu City Lingka" last year, and two articles were published in the first half of this year, if this article passes, it will be the sixth article." Duke replied.

Don't look at him being busy with the light war again, and he is following Suktara to learn alchemy, but in fact, the card-making skills have not fallen at all.

Although the tasks in the tower were not deliberately pursued quickly, they were successfully completed one after another.

Of course, most of the topics are not as sharp as his invention of portable lamps and bright light technology, and they can only be regarded as solid basic work. As a newcomer in the field of card making, I can only complete this kind of coolie-type research project.

The more profound, not to mention the lack of ability, the key is not received.

"Let's do our best." Peng Rose sighed with some emotion, and added, "In addition, you should also concentrate on studying in alchemy, and don't let your teacher down." ”

"I understand." Duke nodded.

Mentor Penrose is still very kind, and he doesn't mind that he is distracted in the alchemy field, and even supports him to inherit Sukhtara's class.

Immediately with the paper in hand, Duke left his supervisor's office.

Hearing the sound of the office door closing, Penrose leaned back in his chair dejectedly, and couldn't stop sighing in his heart: "In the field of erudition, in the field of alchemy, I heard that I am still studying spirit plants and spirit insects, and I am distracted in so many places, I can't hold you back in the card making field?" ”

Then he thought sadly: "If this momentum continues, in a few years, I am afraid that I will be able to get the title of card-making scholar!" ”

"Where is this going to put me!"
