Chapter 63 Adventurer's Guild (7)
Bridge's prepared persuasion stuck in his throat.
The information is correct. The Grand Duke of Befest and the Son of Nature are undoubtedly friends. How could he say the words to give up the Grand Duke?
The reason why Link made such a statement was that he did not want the outside world to misunderstand that Gonzalez was his weakness. That would only put Gonzalez in a dangerous position and make him more passive.
I thought I could use the supply of Watch Castle to induce Link to agree. I didn't want to shoot myself in the foot. I was worried that it would cause a misunderstanding, Bridge quickly explained that he offered such conditions just to revive the union. As the mage's position changes, more magic props will flow into the people, which is the only main source of funds for the union to maintain operation. It will take a certain period of time for militia training to achieve results.
"You don't want the cooperation that has been successfully formed to fail for some other reasons, right?" Seeing that Link had no intention of agreeing at all, Bridge decided to take a gamble and turn the topic back to the original request of the Son of Nature. This trick really worked, and Link's attitude was not as firm as it was at the beginning.
"No. The main reason for my rejection is not money, but the making of strange things itself. Considering that the president is not a prop master, I will explain it in detail. Unlike ordinary magic props, the Tao of strange things and holy things has two indispensable materials, soul power and demon spirit. I believe the president has also heard of it. The former is the body left by the gods after the fall of the gods, that is, the special substance formed by the gathering of power of the gods, and the latter is the energy generated by major events in individuals and even history. It is even rarer and precious than soul power. The most important thing is that only above the master level can you have the ability to see and absorb. Think about it, how many times can a person witness the change of fate in his life? Depending on the nature of the props produced, the number of demon spirits required is also different. Even if he can use the rank to suppress and grab the demon spirits that should belong to others, he must be able to encounter the right opportunity."
Bridge's eyes were once again directed at the prop artist hiding in the corner, almost integrated with the shadow.
"I just wanted to remind you, but the president didn't give me a chance to speak at all." Taking a step forward, the props showed his face. Like Orofen, he was also a half-elf, but his pale skin and white hair showed that the camp that was completely opposite to Orofen - the night elves mixed race.
As soon as the props left the shadow, Link also discovered his existence through audio and video. His first reaction was that Yatis, who looked so much like it, but then Link denied this idea. Yatis is a purebred night elf with a whiter complexion and a shiny and bright silver hair, not as white as an elderly person. He has a mixed-race daughter, why can’t he have a mixed-race son?
Without considering how difficult it is to make strange things, Bridge couldn't help but touch his forehead.
"I have a way to convince him," said the union's prop master, rekindled hope for Bridge, who had almost given up on letting the son of nature make strange things.
"Really can?" The Son of Nature is no more than other people. He has neither vassal state nor family, and can't even be considered a human being. He is just a creature covered in a human shell. It is undoubtedly very difficult to negotiate terms with such a monster. The rights and wealth that ordinary people like are completely useless.
"I can't guarantee it absolutely, I'll try it, but... I have to talk to him alone, after all, some topics are not convenient." Bridge was stunned by the request from the props master. He nodded in agreement without spending too much time thinking.
Not only the president himself, but even Yoda and Orlando were asked to avoid it temporarily.
When there were only two people left, Link noticed that the other person's eyes slid from his face to his right index finger. He immediately reacted - Malik's holy object! The Shadow Body is also one of the main beliefs of the night elves. He took off his gloves while eating at the lord's mansion at noon and didn't wear them back. No wonder he had to ask for a separate conversation. This thing is really harmful! He has to find a way to solve this annoying ring, otherwise he will be exposed wherever he goes.
In order to gain the advantage, regardless of the relationship between half-elves and Yatis, before the other party spoke, Link first recited the name of Yatis. Sure enough, the props's face changed, and the words he had already thought of stopped.
This made Link even more determined to make his guess. Yatis was so clever that he deliberately gave birth to a mixed-race offspring, with the purpose of putting him in various human classes as a spy. Or, this was simply instructed by Malik.
"It's not enough to destroy a Longyan Fort, Malik is targeting the Adventurers Union again?"
The half-elf's shrinking pupils proved that Link had guessed correctly again. He was about to speak, but his head suddenly tilted, and then he let out a familiar laugh from Link.
"To be honest. I was a little surprised. How did you know?"
Tsk~ This guy can call me directly, but he insists on being a believer. Is this more divine power saving? Link replied while complaining: "Isn't Claudia the chess piece you placed in Longyan Castle?"
This time, Malik, who was possessed, didn't say anything. The holy emblem condensed by his divine power could only be used as a medium. He monitored everything that happened around Link, but did not find out what was in Link's mind. It took a long time for the faith he had absorbed in the exile to pass to Edgar. Malik would not pay attention to what happened in the illusion, but only knew that the "history" there was deviation due to the participation of the lifeweaver. Although it had been corrected,... it was not caused by this guy, right?
"It's you?!"
By the way, Link actually understood Malik's mindless question, "It's me."
"Hmph~ I should have thought of it long ago." Because it was more than ten years apart, Malik did not expect that the lifeweaver that the pillar brought this time was the culprit of the history of the exile land.
"Tell me your true purpose, the God of Conspiracy and Secret." Link's focus jumped to Malik's arrangement of spies everywhere, "If your purpose is not only to stagnate humanity in the stage of division, but also to put the United Kingdom in deeper chaos, I must reconsider the alliance with you." He was unwilling to finally match the anti-undead alliance that had been pulled together and fell apart under Malik's instigation, and he had to make up for it before things could not be restored.
"Stop talking big, you..." Malik tried his best to endure his anger. Link's disrespect for him was not only reflected in his words. From the bottom of his heart, he did not take the gods seriously. This attitude was what Malik disliked the most and disliked. But in the current situation, he could not turn against the son of nature. This kind of frustration was that he had never even found that his clergy had been taken away after being exiled or returning to Edgar.
After a brief silence, Malik, possessed by the believer, spoke again.
"As you can see, I just wanted to create more chaos. When Belloc was planted, the Adventurers Union was a very influential organization, and I didn't expect it to decline so quickly. Considering that the union was still useful, it didn't cancel the piece. That's it, and there was no other plan yet."
Malik's forbearance made Link more convinced that this evil god, who is famous for his cunning, has no desire for the son of nature, otherwise he would never be able to bear such disrespect for a mere mortal.
[I advise you to stop when you are good, and stop testing Malik. That guy will revenge, and will definitely take revenge when the ban of life and others is untied.] Lorelai's consciousness warned Link. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
