The first thing Lei Xiao was thinking about was the specific types of magic crystals, because magic crystals are a very broad term and there are extremely many types.
Whether it is the light crystal needed for light healing, the dark magic crystal needed for the guardian defense mechanism, or the wind spirit stone and blue moon stone needed for the Tower of Vision, they are essentially a type of magic crystal, including magic light.
Crystal inside.
It's just that the veins of these magic crystals are relatively common, and the mining volume is often large. Some are widely used in the human world, and they do not belong to the category of rare magic crystals, and there is no distinction between high and low quality.
As for the so-called high-quality magic crystal, it mainly has two characteristics.
First, the magic crystal itself is extremely rare and powerful.
Secondly, among the magic crystals of the same kind, which can distinguish between high and low quality, it is the one with high quality.
For example, the Elf Tears needed for the current upgrade of the Light Healing Center, the Mystic Blue Essence needed for the current upgrade of the Guardian Defense Agency, the Sky Island Essence needed for the Tower of Vision, etc.
Although I have never used these high-quality magic crystals to upgrade miracle buildings, it is certain that the higher the quality of the magic crystals used, the more powerful the functions of the miracle buildings will be.
"But these are not the most important things. The most important thing is, how did the flower fairy know that there would be high-quality magic crystal veins there?"
"Regardless of what kind of magic crystal it is, how does the flower fairy know that it must be of high quality? After all, according to Fanny, it is just an unexploited mineral vein. I have never heard of it being mined in the future.
The quality of minerals can be known before mining.”
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao did not hesitate and immediately expressed the questions in his heart.
"No wonder His Majesty the Human Race always looks like he is thinking with his eyebrows furrowed. It turns out that he has already thought of this."
After hearing Lei Xiao's question, Fanny couldn't help but feel a hint of appreciation on her fair face.
You know, even she herself, after getting the news about the magic mineral vein, focused all her attention on the magic mineral vein itself, and did not consider other issues until she calmed down.
"His Majesty the Human Race is right. High-quality magic veins must be located deep underground, and they are all located in areas where the flow of magic veins is relatively active. Even the most sensitive to geology, the great earth-attribute mage with boundless mana, no matter how he uses it,
Detection spells are almost impossible to detect the existence of mineral veins, let alone obtain quality information about magic mineral veins."
Fanny nodded to Lei Xiao and said bluntly: "What makes me convinced that it is a high-quality mineral vein is based on the authority of the publisher of the magic mineral vein information."
"The authority of the information publisher?"
Broy's face was full of doubts, and he puzzled: "His Majesty the Human Race just mentioned it, who told you about the magic mine?"
"It's the cinephile market in our area."
Fanny's face was solemn and she said sternly: "It is precisely because the Movie Enchantment Market has sent out a cooperation invitation, and the other party will provide the specific location of the magic mine. We, the flower fairies, are responsible for the development, and ultimately achieve the goal of win-win cooperation. After all, the fans
Everyone knows that the powerful people in the Shadow Market are not allowed to leave the market."
"Is this the news released by the cinephile market?"
After hearing Fanny's response, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes and continued to listen.
"That's right, Your Majesty the Human Race, the Cinematic Market has stood on this land for three thousand years since the Blank Age. It has always served as a trade protector and supervisor, and its credibility has never been questioned."
Fanny nodded and continued: "Therefore, we will naturally not have any doubts about the news it released."
"But since the flower fairy got the news through the cinephile market, how did the other three forces get the news?"
Chris's fair face was full of confusion, and she said doubtfully: "And whether it is judging from the secret alliance between the tauren and the trolls, or judging from the actions of the dragonborn and those bright half-elves, they obviously did not get it in a hurry.
News.”
"This is also where I am confused. I received the news a day ago. When I ordered the army to assemble, I quickly received information about the changes in the other three forces around me."
Fanny frowned and responded: "Although I don't know how the other party got the news, it also further confirmed the accuracy of the news from the side, so I simply opened up my firepower and joined the battle for the magic mineral vein.
And you can see what happened next.”
"Could it be that the news about the cooperation between the Flower Fairy and the Movie Fair was leaked?"
Broy gently rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "Only in this way can we explain why the other three groups also got the news."
"Historically, invitations to cinephile fairs have indeed been lost or leaked. It is theoretically possible."
Shuert gently stroked his short gray beard and said, "But if it was leaked to three forces at the same time, it would be too much of a coincidence."
"Is it possible that the Cinephilia Market sent cooperation invitations to all four forces at the same time?"
Chris held her chin with one hand and frowned.
"this……"
Fanny obviously did not consider this possibility, and said with a surprised look on her face: "Wouldn't the Cinephilia Market be the culprit? This is simply unbelievable."
"The purpose of the light half-elf this time is very obvious, which is to come for the magic mine. And the land of the light half-elf is definitely not a day's journey from here. It is absolutely impossible for the dragonborn to invite him after getting the news.
That’s why he came here.”
Lei Xiao gently rubbed his chin and analyzed: "Unless the light half-elf got the news in advance and rushed to the Dragonborn."
"Before this, I have indeed never heard of any contact between the Dragonborn and the Light Half-Elf. My scouts indeed discovered the whereabouts of the Light Half-Elf from the Dragonborn."
Fanny floated in front of Lei Xiao, frowning and thinking: "But if the light half-elves came for the magic mine, didn't they get the news before me and the Miying Market? What on earth is going on?
Did it?"
"This is not an impossible thing. What if the light half-elf brought the news to the Shadow Market, and the Shadow Market told you the news?"
Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and said in a calm voice.
"His Majesty the Human Race is right. In this case, everything will make sense!"
Broy's eyes lit up and he echoed: "The Cinephilia Market is not the source of the news, it is just the disseminator of the news."
"Could it be that the Cinematic Market is cooperating with the operation of the Light Half-Elves?"
Fanny also quickly clarified the relationship, and said with a puzzled face: "But how is this possible? Isn't the Cinephile Market an absolutely fair force? It will never participate in any disputes or conspiracies."
"As for whether this is possible, we will know once we ask."
Lei Xiao took out the communication magic stone and asked: "Sir, is it convenient for you to show up?"
"Since His Majesty the Human Race has recognized the other party, there is no reason why I should not show up."
The manager's burly figure quickly emerged from the magic image and nodded slightly.
"Is this the manager of the cinephile market in the area of wood elves, elves, and treants?"
Fanny's eyes were filled with surprise, and she quickly recognized the manager's identity from the lines on his brown armor.
More than five hundred years ago, Fanny, who was still the Flower Fairy Princess, had accepted an invitation to this cinephile market in her own name, and had an acquaintance with the manager.
As for the managers responsible for the Wood Elf, Dwarf, and Treant areas, why they can invite the Flower Elf Princess who is not within their jurisdiction? This is because personal invitations are often not restricted by the jurisdiction of the Cinematic Market, while official invitations can only
Invite forces within your jurisdiction.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Fanny, no, is she Her Majesty the Queen now? We meet again."
The manager nodded slightly and said hello to Fanny first.
"Your Excellency, Manager, you are well."
Fanny suppressed the surprise in her heart, first responded politely to the other party, and then turned to Lei Xiao, with a face full of disbelief and said: "Your Majesty the human race, as far as I know, only when necessary, the Fanying Market will take the initiative to contact many people.
Forces, and many forces have no way to contact the cinephile market, how did you do it?"
"Your Majesty, it seems that the cinephile market is not as aloof and rigid as you imagined."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, looked at the manager and asked, "Sir, did you hear what happened just now? Is the possibility I mentioned possible?"
"Your Majesty, the human race, although I don't want to admit it, this possibility does exist, although this situation does not occur in all cinephile markets."
The manager responded without any hesitation: "Especially the manager next door to me, he does everything possible. If it's him, it's basically a done deal."
"Your Excellency, manager, why did that manager do this? Isn't this ruining the reputation of the cinephile market?"
Fanny obviously had not recovered from the shock, and asked quickly: "Don't you and other higher-level supervisors hold him accountable?"
"Her Majesty the Queen doesn't know anything. As long as it is within a reasonable range, the Market Brotherhood will turn a blind eye."
The manager's voice was calm, but it made Fanny even more shocked. He continued: "In the final analysis, the reason why Movie Market plays the role of trade protector is because of interests. It will charge corresponding fees in every transaction.
The benefits, in other words, as long as the benefits are sufficient, everything is possible.”
"What the manager said makes sense. First of all, the light half-elf must have promised the manager a lot of benefits."
Broy nodded thoughtfully and muttered: "Secondly, once the four major forces start a full-scale war, even if they eliminate the main force of a certain party and prepare to eradicate it, it will be difficult to attack the other party that has been in business for thousands of years in a short time.
The above core cities will largely turn into a war of attrition. As supplies become increasingly scarce, once the cinephile market is opened, the transaction volume will naturally increase, and the benefits are self-evident."
"His Majesty the Elf has made a thorough analysis. Not only that, the manager next to me is also at the bottom of the rankings. It is difficult to get in touch with second-rate forces, or even strong people from the top forces. Even if he sends a personal invitation letter, he will hardly get it.
Give me face."
The manager's hoarse voice sounded again and said: "Therefore, according to my estimation, in addition to promising benefits, the bright half-elf must also have promised powerful connections. This is also a temptation that any manager will find difficult to refuse."
"But Sir, these are short-term interests. Once the forces in the region go to war with each other and the existence is destroyed, from the long-term benefit point of view, this will be detrimental to the movie market. Isn't this killing the goose that lays the egg?"
Fanny frowned and said with confusion on her face.
"Her Majesty the Queen does not know that the market ranking statistics for the six-hundred-year period are about to begin. If she obtains enough benefits, she will improve her market ranking and then go to the more core outer areas. Naturally, she will
They won’t take into account the situation in the original area.”
The manager's voice was calm and he responded: "In other words, even if it leaves a mess, you don't have to clean it up yourself. The subsequent markets can only consider themselves unlucky."
"I understand it completely. I didn't expect the truth to be like this. It turns out that the so-called cooperation invitation letter is just the beginning of the other party's conspiracy. It seems that the other party really may have also sent a cooperation invitation letter to the trolls and minotaurs."
Fanny took a slow and deep breath, her eyes flashed with anger, annoyance, helplessness and other different expressions from time to time, obviously trying her best to adjust her emotions.
After a long while, Fanny finally calmed down, nodded heavily to Lei Xiao and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, the human race, for revealing the truth to me. To be honest with you, the flower fairy has not raised a weapon for hundreds of years. It seems peaceful.
The atmosphere made us unknowingly underestimate the dangers of the outer world."
"Your Majesty the Queen is too polite. It's just a small effort. As I said before, the flower fairies not only had a close relationship with the human race, but are also blood-connected to the wood fairies. We will not sit idly by regardless of emotion or reason."
Lei Xiao waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, Human Race, I still have something unclear."
Broy frowned and thought for a moment, then asked doubtfully: "Since the Light Half-Elf has brought the news of the magic crystal veins, then you can mine it quietly with the Dragonborn, so why do you want to deliberately release the news?"
"Your Majesty the Elf, this is not difficult to explain."
Fanny nodded to Broy and responded: "In our area, the group of guys with dragon faces are relatively stronger and ambitious. They are undoubtedly our main target to guard against.
And mining ore veins is by no means a trivial matter, and a lot of manpower and material resources must be invested, and it will be easily noticed by us."
"By then, after knowing the truth, we will naturally not just watch it silently make a fortune. Otherwise, once it develops and grows, we will be the unlucky ones. Therefore, we will definitely use weapons to fight for the mineral veins."
After hearing Fanny's explanation, Chris nodded thoughtfully and added: "In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, it is better to simply provoke a war, which will greatly reduce the strength of all parties and completely lose the ability to interfere and compete.
Ability?"
"If we hadn't stationed ourselves at the Falls Watcher Fortress, I'm afraid the other party would have succeeded."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, snapped his fingers slightly and said: "Then, there is only one most critical question left."
