Talking about the survivors’ need for an alchemist, Zong Ge felt curious: “Isn’t Master Qingxin good at alchemy too?”
Zidi shook her head: "Her best wind spell is called boosting wind, which can make the caravan travel faster and lighter."
Zong Ge understood immediately.
Zidi sighed: "Even if she is a mage trained by our Chamber of Commerce, her talent is not high. How many people at the bottom have strong bloodlines?"
Cang Xu consoled her: "To put it another way, if Master Qingxin had a strong talent, she might not be able to survive until now."
Then, the Necromancer changed the topic: "Speaking of Qingxin, I also learned an important piece of information from her."
"There is a secret gathering of necromancers that will be held on Weeping Pine Island."
"That was a rare gathering. Not only did they exchange information, but they also exchanged necromancy skills and traded resources for necromancy practice."
“I highly recommend attending.”
"We need a lot of undead cultivation resources, which are difficult to replenish elsewhere. Especially soul crystals, which have an irreplaceable role in Zidi and I's cultivation, and even in the treatment of our ghosts."
The dragon boy was silent for a moment: "Where is the location of Crying Song Island?"
Zidi brought up the sea chart and projected it on the wall: "Weeping Song Island is in this position... This direction is completely opposite to Ice Sculpture Island."
Cang Xu nodded: "But it's not far from us, isn't it?"
He had already prepared his words.
The Necromancer continued: "My suggestion is for me to go to Wailing Song Island alone, where I can attend a gathering of Necromancers in exchange for some resources."
"When the gathering is over and the necromancers disperse, we can still direct a battle there."
"After the battle, the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group successfully killed the Necromancer, captured the Iron Pimple, and rescued many hostages such as humans and dwarves."
"Isn't this something that everyone is happy with?"
The dragon boy's heart suddenly moved: "In this way, the Tie Liao Da can be used by us. Maybe we can use this to recruit the boring stone?"
Zong Ge's voice came: "I agree to go to Wailing Song Island."
"It's precisely because its location is completely opposite to the Ice Sculpture Island."
"We can use this to deceive others and make a false shot."
"In addition, it is also very helpful for us that the Iron Pimple can be used normally. We are really short of mana ships."
The Deep Sea Monster Fish is the trump card and cannot be exposed easily.
"But if Qingxin gets on our ship, it means that our identity will be exposed!"
"She already knows the identity of Zidi and the Necromancer. Even if she doesn't know about Zidi and Zhenjin's shipwreck now, she can easily find out in the future."
"If she joins the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group again and learns the truth about the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group, she will not be far away from coming into contact with our core secrets."
Zong Ge continued to speak bluntly: "So, I am very opposed to doing this!"
"No matter how much you trust this woman, I will not trust her easily."
"This is too risky for us!"
Zidi frowned and retorted: "I can vouch for her. Sister Qingxin was cultivated by my father. When the Ziteng Chamber of Commerce was divided, she remained anonymous and resisted in her own way. This proved her loyalty.
."
"Just looking at it before, in order to take care of the blond mother and son, she was willing to risk fighting and try her best to save these weak people, which is enough to show her kindness."
Zong Ge snorted coldly: "Zidi, your trust cannot replace my thoughts."
"Can you know her truest thoughts?"
"Even if she is loyal, won't she be controlled?"
"Think about your rebellion in the melee. If you can't even guarantee yourself, how can you guarantee others?"
"You!" Zi Di glared angrily.
She subconsciously looked at the dragon boy.
The dragon boy smiled at her and patted her shoulder gently, silently expressing comfort.
But the dragon boy did not express his opinion immediately, but asked Cang Xu: "What do you think?"
The old necromancer carefully remained silent. Now that he was named by the group leader, he could only say: "I agree with Zong Ge's view."
This answer made Zidi frown deeper.
However, the dragon boy always looked calm, as if he had expected it.
Although in terms of relationship, Cang Xu and Zi Di are closer than Zong Ge.
But in every decision, Cang Xu remains rational and objective, has his own independent thinking, and will not be fettered by external factors such as emotion and identity.
Cang Xu continued: "Qingxin really can't trust us yet."
"As far as the current situation is concerned, that's it."
"Our mutual trust is the solid foundation of Mysterious Island. As for Qingxin, in fact, only Miss Zidi supports her."
"This matter cannot be rushed."
"We can test and confirm her true intentions and test whether she has any means of being controlled."
"We can also sign a contract with her."
"There are many spells and divine spells that can help us, aren't there?"
"In fact, I hope that we will also sign a contract and use the power of the contract to protect ourselves to prevent the devil's gold coin from happening again!"
Cang Xu is worthy of being a noble butler for many years, and he speaks very well.
First, he maintained his opinion.
Secondly, he agreed with Zongge, but not completely. He opposed Zidi, but not completely. He did not offend either party.
Again, what he said made sense and gave a solution.
Finally, he had a very reasonable suggestion, suggesting that everyone sign a contract and beware of tricks like devil's gold coins. This suggestion simply touched the heart of the young dragon man!
The dragon boy couldn't help but nodded slightly.
He looked at Zi Di and silently asked his sweetheart's opinion.
Zidi's brows relaxed a little, and she muttered: "We really need to be on guard against means like devil's gold coins to protect our will!"
"In this regard, divine magic has always been the first choice for the public."
"After implementation, divine protection is divided into two types. The first is temporary protection, which only protects for a period of time and needs to be replenished at subsequent intervals. The second is constant divine protection, which is similar to a constant spell and will permanently protect the effects of divine spells.
Attached to the human body.”
"The first type requires us to have frequent contact with priests and above, which increases our risk of exposure."
"The second one is even less suitable. Constant magic requires high-level clerics and certain spell-casting facilities. It is often held in temples. Because it permanently imparts magical power, the sect's review will be very strict.
Preventing the enemy. In the process of casting magical spells, it is very likely that the gods will also pay attention to them."
"In fact, any high-level large-scale magical performance has a higher chance of attracting the attention of the gods."
The fighter's power comes from himself, the mage draws elements from the outside world, and the priest's power comes from the gods they believe in.
Therefore, once powerful magic is used, the gods will naturally sense it.
The dragon boy nodded: "Magical magic is not suitable for us, it is too risky. Is there any other way?"
Zidi nodded: "Yes. In addition to divine magic, there are also spells, magic circles, potions, alchemy tools, etc."
"For example, an anti-magic barrier can increase resistance. When the will is distorted, it can shorten the time of being controlled."
"There is also a classic arcane spell: Magic Counter. It can counter most spells."
"However, generally speaking, the prevention effect is not very good."
"Divine spells and spells both affect the will, but the number of the former is much greater than the latter. Magic countermeasures and anti-magic enchantments are more specific to spells."
"Isn't there something that targets divine magic, such as the secrets of anti-divine magic?" the dragon boy asked curiously.
Zidi smiled bitterly: "Gods are special, and the power of each god is unique. In other words, the nature of their magic is different, even if the effect is the same."
"Therefore, it is very difficult and costly to develop anti-god magic. Even if it is developed, it will only be aimed at a certain god and will not have broad applicability. In this way, the benefits will be too low."
"What's even worse is that the cost of modifying divine spells is much lower than the cost of research and development of anti-divine spells. Once it is discovered that divine spells are being targeted, the gods can make the corresponding anti-divine spells ineffective with just a slight modification. It doesn't even require a god.
If the main body takes action, the Holy Spirit, angels, red archbishops and other beings can also make modifications."
"That's it." Zong Ge sighed.
The dragon boy is the reason for his amnesia, and Zong Ge refers to practicing fighting spirit. He has lived in the army all year round and does not have much understanding of these more in-depth knowledge.
Listening to Zidi's talk, both of them felt their eyes were opened.
While Zidi was talking, Cang Xu remained quiet.
He knows how to measure things and doesn't try to grab the limelight unnecessarily.
Zidi continued: "Spells are like this. There are also some magic circles that can protect the original owner's will."
"Essentially, it is actually enchantment technology."
"The human body is enchanted through the magic circle, and the magic runes applied there will have a protective effect."
"A step further in this regard is the alchemy of the human body."
"Everyone knows that the orc clan's boxing champion has surpassed him. He took the initiative to alchemize his right arm to create a rocket black gold fist, thus greatly increasing his strength."
"When refining the right arm, five extremely precious gem materials were used, one of which has the powerful effect of protecting the will."
"So, one of the functions of Rocket Black Gold Fist is to protect his independent will."
"For us, the most suitable method is medicine."
"We already have strong pharmaceutical capabilities, thanks to the magic agate medicinal bath."
"Of course, we can't do anything about high-level potions, but we don't lack the production capacity for low-level potions. We just lack some corresponding materials for the potion formulas."
"At critical moments in the future, we can temporarily protect our will by drinking medicine."
Cang Xu added: "I agree with this plan."
Zong Ge asked: "This plan cannot protect against sneak attacks, spells, magic circles, potions... What about the last alchemy item?"
Zidi replied: "The Rocket Black Gold Fist can actually be regarded as an alchemy tool."
"Items that can protect one's will are rare in number, and most of them are high-end items."
"The reason is similar to the spell."
"It is difficult to guard against those magical spells that can tamper and distort the will."
"It can be said that there is a price but no market. It can be found but cannot be sought."
"But..." Zidi hesitated, "I've heard that Ice Heart, a specialty of Ice Sculpture Island, seems to be fine."
"Heart of Ice is very versatile."
"It can be taken directly by people. After taking it, people will become extremely rational, all emotions will be frozen, and mental strength and willpower will be greatly improved."
"Of course it can be used to make potions. There are at least nine potions in Ice Sculpture City, using it as the main ingredient. The most famous one is the Ice Flower Potion."
"This is a potion for snow elves. After the snow elves take it, it will enhance the effect of their ice spells, up to 30%!"
"The side effect is that after taking the medicine, the snow elf will have a lot of dandruff, a lot."
"Heart of Ice can also be used to make alchemy items."
"The most successful product is the Ice Heart Ring. Wearing it can keep the mage calm at all times, increase mental power, and speed up spell casting. Of course, it also protects the will."
The dragon boy smiled: "It seems that we have one more goal to go to Ice Sculpture Island."
But Zidi shook her head: "It is difficult for us to obtain the Ice Heart, and its output is very small. It is better not to expect anything in return."
The four of them continued to discuss other matters.
For example, issuing pensions, rewarding and promoting outstanding performers, etc., and how to negotiate with Hutong in exchange for the materials needed by the survivors.
In the end, the four decided to go to Wailing Song Island first, and then to Ice Sculpture Island.
As for how to deal with Qingxin, it depends on whether her true status can be confirmed during the process and whether the survivors can trust her.
In order to ensure the safety of the operation, Zidi took the initiative to use the equipment from the auction to fully arm Cang Xu.
This proposal was approved by the remaining three.
At dawn, the dragon boy secretly sneaked back to the dock.
When the sun slowly rose and was completely above the horizon, Hutong opened his eyes.
The physical pain has been relieved a lot, which is the effect of taking the therapeutic medicine.
The priest of the Wealth Sect died in the battle, and the current clergy on the new island are not yet capable of effectively treating Yutong.
I feel very comfortable.
Although he only slept for a few hours, his energy and physical fitness were greatly replenished.
He slowly sat up with his upper body and shook the brass bell on the bedside.
Soon, a servant knocked on the door. After getting permission, he walked into the door and helped Hutong get dressed and wash up.
The leading servant is Hutong's valet.
The manservant's expression was a little stiff, and his voice was dry and authentic: "Master, you asked me last night that all information about the salvage of treasures must be reported to you immediately. Is that okay now?"
But after catching up on a few hours of sleep, I was no longer as anxious as before.
He regained his aristocratic appearance.
At this moment, he looked in the mirror and adjusted his collar: "Why worry, those trophies won't escape."
"But..." the valet was about to say, but was interrupted by Huntong.
Huantong pointed to the window and ordered: "Open it."
The valet quickly obeyed the order and went to open the window.
The scenery outside the window is very beautiful.
The light of the morning sun shines on the sea, shining as brightly as fish scales.
The sea breeze blew in slowly, making Huntong's mood become wonderful.
The only thing not beautiful are the ruins of the post-war houses.
Falling into Huntong's eyes, it was a bit dazzling.
He encouraged himself in his heart: "It doesn't matter, I have money!"
"I have a lot of money."
"Give me some time and the new island will be built more comprehensively and better."
