"Then why did you choose us? Compared to the reasons you just mentioned, there must be many more suitable candidates than us under the command of the Great Lord. ”

Although they had experienced life and death with Raphinia, Levi didn't feel that acquainted, so he still wanted to know a reason, whether it was true or not, to find out what Raphinia was thinking.

"There really isn't a father like you. ”

Raphinya shook her head, and there was a hint of bitterness in her smile, "There are people in the family who are about the same level as your source power, but excluding other factors, my father doesn't dare to give them this kind of thing to do easily. ”

She didn't say much, but Levi understood that the Gonzalo family was likely to be more fierce within than outside.

"In the fight against Elifas, not only did you save me, but more importantly, you didn't abandon your teammates and run away, but chose to fight.

There will be many things and changes that will happen in plane exploration, danger, wealth and power, etc., will make people lost, so the most important thing in group exploration is character, and strength is secondary.

If your teammates are wavering, they are likely to betray each other when they are tempted, and even become accomplices of the gods of the plane to murder their teammates. ”

Rafinia took a sip of the juice in the glass and looked at Levi, "Although I haven't been with you for long, my feelings tell me that you won't. ”

The sentence added later made Levi nod slightly, but he didn't think so in his heart.

Raphinya's words should also be half-true, many of the things she said were extreme cases, and Levi felt that the most important thing was that there was no suitable person around her.

As for betrayal, it is more often because the temptation is not big enough, and it is also related to the reward.

Seeing Levi spinning the crystal cup on the table without speaking, Raphinia thought that he might be hesitating, so she spoke, "Let me tell you about the reward for this mission." ”

"Well, you name it. Levi nodded, this was what he was waiting for.

"If each of you is paid 50,000 Source Stones before the mission, you can use it to buy equipment to increase your strength, or directly increase the capacity of the plane to the limit.

Raphinia deliberately emphasized, "But don't raise the level of source power, and the lords of the plane can't exceed level nine, otherwise they will be no different from the fifth-level lords, and they will also attract the attention of the gods." ”

"Well, I know that. ”

Judging from the danger of this plane exploration mission, Levi was not too surprised that some compensation should be paid in advance, and the increase in their strength also increased the chances of completing the mission.

"Secondly, from the beginning of the exploration of the plane to the occupation of the entire plane, all the proceeds of the land we have carved out during this period belong to us. Ownership of those lands for a hundred years after the occupation of the plane is also entirely ours, regardless of what develops above.

One hundred years later, the land will still be ours, but 50 percent of the proceeds will be paid to Charles. ”

The reward mentioned earlier is nothing, and the most important thing is what Raphinia said later.

If they really gain a foothold in that plane, the reward for this task can be said to be very rich, and Levi and the others are equivalent to having a place to settle outside of Arnosd.

It's just that I don't know if the reward for this mission is Charles or Raphinia, which can be regarded as pulling Levi and others into Charles's camp.

Levi was a little curious, and straightened up to look at Raphinya, "We? Aren't you the daughter of Grand Lord Charles?

"Of course, I didn't need my father's sponsorship for a long time, and I was just hired by him for this mission, and I was not less paid. ”

A hint of pride flashed in Raphinia's eyes, she was proud to be the daughter of a demonic skullcap.

It's really a father and daughter, and they settle accounts.

After all, this kind of thing has nothing to do with him, Levi just sighed in his heart, and then turned his head to look at Iger with an inquiring gaze, wondering his opinion.

Iger didn't speak, didn't have a clear attitude, just rubbed his fingers back and forth on the wooden table.

He already knew what Levi meant when he shook the communication crystal before, but Egg didn't want Levi to take such a big risk because of it.

Levi saw Egger's hesitation and smiled at him.

"It's a good pay, but it's not enough compared to the risks, and I have a small request in addition to that. ”

Raphinya also expected the price of Levi's talks, so she naturally hummed, "You say, I will try my best to meet your request." ”

Levi leaned forward, put his arms on the table and said slowly: "If this task is completed, I want the favor of the Great Lord Charles, and when we are in trouble one day, I want the Great Lord to fully support us within his ability." ”

"This ......"

The sword eyebrows on Raphinya's forehead furrowed slightly, and Levi's request exceeded her expectations.

Levi explained: "Don't worry, I said it, it is a matter within the scope of the Great Lord's ability, and he will definitely not let Lord Charles take risks, maybe it is just his words, or even an attitude." ”

The Andre family may be a behemoth in front of Egger, but in front of Charles, it is just an ordinary family, and as long as he is willing to participate in this matter, Lina's father will probably not dare to resist.

This is the value of strength, what Levi and Iger are helpless can do, the big lord will solve with a word.

"But it's about my father after all, so I'll probably have to ask him for his opinion before I can give you an answer. ”

"Well, I understand that, it just so happens that Egger is injured and needs time to recover, and this matter is not in a hurry. ”

Allen, who had never spoken, suddenly said, "This injury is not a big deal, and it will be able to recover soon." ”

"It's okay, you take care of your injuries first, now my father also needs some time to prepare, after all, it is not easy to send people in. ”

Levi nodded, although Raphinia didn't say it explicitly, he secretly estimated that Charles's injuries in the battle with the gods of that plane should not be light, otherwise the great lord would not be so patient to wait for a while.

When things were about the same, the relationship between the two slowly relaxed, and it was only then that Levi and Egger began to taste the juice that Raphinia had brought.

"Yes, yes!" said Levi, after taking a sip, his eyes lit up.

The spices in this world are very simple, and he didn't have any special expectations, but he didn't expect the two priests to surprise him.

The wine in his cup is made of grape-flavored fruit, which smells faintly fragrant, but it is mellow but not greasy, with a little sourness.

"Although the goddess of lakes and springs is a weak divine power, her priesthood has a slight connection with brewing, and her followers basically master some brewing abilities, so slowly her ability in that area is getting stronger and stronger. ”

Raphinia's words made Levi sigh in his heart, Charles actually raised a real goddess bartender, and he was so happy.

"I'm coming!"

Not long after Levi put down the cup, Dai Erman's figure appeared at the door of the Explorer Guild, which was completely belated.

"I'm sorry, but something suddenly delayed at home. ”

Deerman unceremoniously sat in the empty seat between Levi and Raphinia, "How is it, are you done talking?"

"Not yet, I'm waiting for you. Levi looked at her seriously.

"Really?"

Realizing that she had suddenly become so important, Dai Erman's eyes were full of surprise, "I'm so embarrassed, let's start quickly." ”

In her anticipation, Raphinia accidentally laughed, and Levi sighed helplessly.

"Ahem......"

Egger didn't hold back, and with a smile, he pulled the wound on his chest.

No matter how stupid Dai Erman was, she knew that Levi was teasing her, but she was not in the mood to care now, and asked Egger with concern, "Are you injured?"

After all, it was her brother, and Dai Erman immediately got up and leaned over, and Egg waved her hand again and again to tell her that there was nothing wrong.

"You don't have to worry, he was injured by the Skeleton Knight, and I'll arrange for someone to deal with it for him later. ”

Raphiniya frowned when she heard that Egg was injured by the undead, "The wound is contaminated with the breath of the necromancy?

Although the priest's magic is somewhat restrained against the undead, the necromantic aura is very difficult, and if Egger's wound is serious and she is not confident that it can be completely resolved, then she may need to turn to her father for help.

"Thanks, but we can fix it. Iger declined Raphinia's offer.

"Really, if you can't do it, don't be re......ckless," Raphinia reminded Raphinia, looking at Egger suspiciously.

Compared to her nervousness, Dai Erman was less worried after hearing that she was injured by the Skeleton Knight, and was even in the mood to pick up the juice in front of her and taste it, praising the good taste.

When she saw that Raphinya was a little worried, Dai Erman said indifferently: "Don't worry, Sister Raphinia, this little matter can be solved easily by Levi." ”

As she spoke, she raised her glass and shook it, "This is really delicious, where did you buy it...... What's the matter, Levi, what are you staring at me, isn't it delicious?"

"No, the cup you took is mine, and the cup over there is your ......"

“......”

Dai Erman didn't dislike Levi, but after all, she had never been in contact with anyone else like this, and she didn't know what to do in the hesitation, and her face unconsciously hit a faint red.

Fortunately, at this time, Raphinia got up and said, "By the way, Levi, what is your full name?"

"Delman Westchester"

"Egger Westchester"

Iger hesitated, but eventually spoke his name fluently, and only Levi thought carefully before he said, "Levi Stuart." ”

"Well, I remember. If it's all right, I'll go back first, and I'll tell my father what you want, and I'll let you know when he's decided. ”

"Good. ”

After a brief goodbye, Raphinia left the Society, while the three of them sat still.

"Huh, you're so red?"

"Yes?" Dai Erman's eyes were evasive, "Maybe you are in too much of a hurry and tired...... What the hell is the task that Raphinia's sister is talking about? ”

Levi didn't pay attention to her appearance, and told her in detail about the task that Raphinia had mentioned.

"Subplane...... Isn't that exciting?!"

Delman had heard a lot of stories about the secondary plane, the primary plane, but she had never seen what it looked like outside.

It's not just her, but the lords below the eighth level have actually not started to travel on the plane, so they have only read the information in the book, but they have not seen the outside world.

Li Wei laughed dryly, "Yes, it should be quite exciting, but the price of this stimulation is a bit big." ”

However, when Dai Erman said this, he was really a little curious, what was the sub-plane that Raphinia was talking about, and whether he would meet the black-haired, black-eyed yellow people he was once familiar with......

"By the way, Levi, why did you make such a request later?"

"I'm not asking for that, it's for your brother......"

"Levi!"

Egg hurriedly shouted, interrupting their conversation, and Delman didn't know what was going on, and looked at him in a daze.

"Levi, my wound is a little uncomfortable, you can help me take care of it. ”

"Okay, let's go to your house. ”

Whatever the reason, since Iger didn't want Dai Erman to know, Levi naturally didn't mention it again.

At this time, Dai Erman, who stood up, suddenly said, "Father is injured, you are also injured, you two are really father and son!"

"He's also injured?!"

Allen's face was a little nervous for a moment, but he was forced to press it down in the next second.

"My father joined the Demon Resistance in Draenor and was severely wounded in the chest by a fire demon attack on the frontal battlefield. ”

Dai Erman sighed softly and continued, "But it's no big deal, Draenor's priest has already helped him clear the chaos and corruption, now he just needs to recover." ”

Egger lowered his head and was silent for a moment, never looking at Dai Erman, "Then you go back to take care of him first, we will call you if we have something." ”

With Levi there, Dai Erman didn't worry too much, she also knew that the relationship between Iger and her father was complicated, so she left without saying much.

"Do you want to go see him?" Levi asked in a low voice as he walked as he looked at Egg, who lowered his head.

Iger shook his head, "I'm just a tool for him to continue his family's bloodline, and it doesn't make sense to look at it or not." ”

His voice was low, and his tone was full of disdain and frustration that had never appeared in his mouth before, and slow stories.

"If you feel that something is uncomfortable for you, you can tell me, I may not be able to help you, but I can be a good listener. ”

Levi stretched out his hand and put it on Egger's shoulder, comforting him from the bottom of his heart, while involuntarily sighing that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.

He didn't think about the trouble of a father and son like Egger, but he was worried about what Hope would do when he woke up and called him like Owen.

"Levi, you've helped me enough, but there are some things I can't recall. ”

Egg clutched his chest lightly and raised his head cautiously, "Everything is unknown to the mission to the second plane, you don't have to risk it for me, Lina will figure it out by myself." ”

"Don't say so much, let's go!"

Levi didn't answer Egg's words, and urged: "Hurry up and heal your injuries, I have other things to do." ”

Is this mission just to help Egger?

He didn't answer because he didn't know.

......

"Owen, this is my friend Egger, you help him clean the necromantic aura from his wounds. ”

In order for Owen to become outgoing, Levi deliberately did not let Arya come out, so he first asked Arya to teach Owen what necromantic qi is.

"Yes, Father!"

"He's ......"

"Don't think about it, he's my brother, but he's just as brainy and stubborn as Arya, so I didn't change the title at all. ”

"Oh, oh......"

Knowing Arya's incident, Egger also understood Owen's appearance, but he didn't expect Levi's relatives to become like this for two in a row.

He had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask more, unbuckled his belt, lay on the bed, and lifted the clothes on his chest.

Before the bandage on Egg's wound could be removed, Levi could already feel the necromantic aura above, and Owen immediately stepped forward and put his hand on it.

Unlike Arya's approach, Owen suddenly had a bone needle nearly three centimeters growing on his middle finger.

Egg's brow furrowed slightly, and the bone needle pierced his wound through the cloth, and the gray mist was visibly converging towards the bone needle.

This state lasted for about dozens of minutes, and Owen withdrew the bone needle and walked in front of Levi, "It's gone." ”

Levi naturally knew what was missing, he couldn't feel the necromantic aura on Egg's body anymore.

After the wound is cleaned, there is no major problem left, even without the treatment of the priest, there are many medicines that can heal quickly, Levi chatted with Iger for a few words and left the apartment, sent Owen back to the plane and went straight to the market to buy materials to draw the magic pattern.

There are generally three forms of magic patterns, the most common of which is first drawn on materials such as animal skins, and then loaded on human bodies by means similar to skin grafting.

This method is the simplest and most straightforward, but there will be a slight loss in the improvement effect.

The second is to draw the magic pattern on the human body, similar to the tattoo of Levi's previous life. Compared to the first method, the effect of drawing on the human body is more obvious, but it requires a very high level of ability from the magician, because any mistakes in the process will affect the effect.

The last one is to activate the magic pattern, which is only a few words in the records of the classics, and it is not clear what it is Levi.

But it didn't matter much, after all, according to Levi's current skills, it was already very powerful to be able to draw it on paper, and activating the magic pattern was not something he had to think about at all.

His current focus is on buying materials for the crafting of the primary magic pattern, a magic pen to draw the magic circle, and a few complete animal skins.

The magic pen and animal skin are okay, but the materials for drawing the magic pattern are very messy, including ores, herbs, some parts of various creatures, and some semi-finished potions, so Levi ran all over the trading market and didn't buy them all, and finally got the last few things together at the stall outside.

After the materials and tools were all in place, Levi originally planned to go to the Teleportation Land and return to the plane directly, but after thinking about it, he reversed course and went to Laurent's shop.
