"If the long-haired mongoose is raised together from an early age, it will definitely become a 2-ring fantasy beast in the future." Muhans Black Snake looked at the small mongoose on Duke's shoulder and admired.
He himself is a level 2 fantasy beast knight, so he naturally knows a lot about fantasy beasts.
"What a spiritually blessed young man." Philiber couldn't help but admire, "With this little guy, I am guaranteed to be a 2-ring fantasy beast knight."
"But with Duke's talent, two rings shouldn't be his limit." said Mudis Black Snake, who is Muhans' younger brother.
He is also a level 1 arcanist.
He controlled the Black Snake Mercenary Group. He often ran around in the forest and discovered the spiritual spring of Cuihai Valley.
This is how the current Cuihai Valley Development War began.
"A few rings don't mean much to me now. I'm very satisfied to be able to step into the realm of spiritual arcana and study extraordinary power in depth." Duke said humbly.
The high priest said gently: "You will become a great arcane mage."
"I'd like to lend you your kind words."
"If you need anything outside, just tell us that the children in Sheshou Town have a future, just like our own children in the Black Snake Family have a future." The high priest looked at Duke and his tone became gentler, "The town has a future.
It will always be your home."
Although he knew that this was the Black Snake family's attempt to win over him, Duke still felt warm in his heart after hearing the high priest's words.
He responded with a smile: "I grew up here, and it was the Black Snake family that protected me. No matter where I go, this is my home."
After chatting, it’s getting late.
Philiber is preparing to return to Shenjiao City, and Duke will naturally go back with her, otherwise he will have to squeeze into the Black Beetle to go to Shenjiao City tomorrow.
"Duke, your status is different now, and you need some assistants in your life in the city." Mayor Muhans recommended Mulali here, "Mu Lali is a student in Shenjiao City, and she is very important to all the people in Shenjiao City.
I am familiar with all aspects and can help you with some chores."
"This..." Duke was about to refuse.
He is fully aware of the "ulterior motives" of the Black Snake Family. This is a honey trap, and he does not want to be tied to the Black Snake Family.
But Muhans quickly interrupted his refusal: "Following you will allow Murali to learn more. In addition, I personally have 10% of the shares in the Black Snake Spirit Gold Factory, and I plan to transfer 100% of it."
Three-thirds of the shares will be donated to you as Mulali’s learning expenses.”
"This..."
Although the Black Snake Spiritual Gold Factory is not a large company, it owns several mines within the fiefdom of Sheshou Town and can smelt a large amount of spiritual gold every year. It is the largest industry of the Black Snake family.
Three percent of the dry shares will definitely pay a lot of dividends every year.
Duke resisted the temptation and declined: "I can't accept this. Mayor Muhans, you are not getting rewarded for your merits. I have already accepted the meeting gift from you and the high priest, and I really can't accept it anymore."
"This is not a gift for you, it's just Mulali's tuition." Muhans said firmly, "This is my father's consideration for my daughter. I hope you can understand."
For this reason.
If you continue to refuse, you will not give Hansi face.
Duke could only reluctantly accept the gift: "I will teach Mulali with all my heart, but I have little talent and knowledge, and I am afraid I am not a famous teacher."
"You are a genius arcane mage. With your guidance, Mulali will definitely make great progress. Of course, if Mulali is too stupid, just let everything go."
After Muhans finished speaking, he patted his daughter on the shoulder.
Mulali seemed a little shy, lowered her head and said: "Mr. Duke, please take care of me."
It was a gift of shares and a daughter. Duke was really overwhelmed for a while and responded politely: "Let's make progress together."
So.
Mulali studied with Duke as an assistant and took on some daily chores.
Duke bid farewell to the high priest, the mayor and others, took his female assistant Mulali, and followed Philibere to leave the Black Snake Manor and head for the Yingli airship.
Watching the car drive away from the manor.
Muhans seemed to be inexplicably touched and sighed inaudibly.
High Priest Muland looked at his nephew and asked in a relaxed tone: "Why are you worried?"
"Uncle..." Mu Hansi opened his mouth and hesitated, "Is it really necessary? Although Mulali is just a daughter, but...she is well-behaved and sensible. Shasha and I have always liked her."
"I also like the granddaughter Mulali very much." Mulander adjusted his arcane mage robe, "Our Black Snake family is too weak, and there are no good talents in the younger generation. We can only look for suitable help from outside.
."
"But...Duke is just a level 1 arcane mage."
"So what, I came from a first-level arcane mage, and your grandfather also came from a first-level arcane mage. In the end, your grandfather founded our Black Snake family and left rich clothes and food for our descendants... Besides,
Duke is from Snake Head Town, which is stronger than any bond."
"I know, it just feels... like selling my daughter."
"This is not selling a daughter, this is Mulali's creation. And it's just a daughter. You and Shasha are both young and can have ten or eight more children."
"Um..."
Mu Hansi's conclusion.
Muland looked up at the eastern sky. The Yingliang had already taken off and was speeding slowly towards the east. He couldn't help but sigh: "If the news about the spiritual spring in Cuihai Valley hadn't been leaked, our Black Snake family could have developed it silently!"<
/p>
Muhans shook his head: "Third uncle, you don't have to worry about it anymore. This news will always spread. Abandoning it early means getting rid of right and wrong early."
"That's not what I'm saying. If it were given to the chief executive of Keyston, or the three chief directors of Williams, Irvine, and Stephen Wing Tiger, they would bear all the rights and wrongs... However, the initiative to open up the war
, but it was snatched away by the Bernoulli administration in Cape Angry City..."
"The Bernoulli administration promised us that it would firmly support the Black Snake family."
"A big man promises a lot of money, but how can he place all his hopes on the care of others? Only by strengthening himself can he have enough confidence to fight for interests."
"I'm too weak and can't carry my family." Muhans was a little disappointed. Although he was a second-level fantasy beast knight, he was still weak compared to the arcane mage.
Muland said lightly: "No, we are all too weak."
……
The airship arrived at the Oruchi Master Tower, and then Duke and his party took the shuttle and went directly to the Magic Spirit Tower.
The Arcane Mage Hall on the fifteenth floor only allows arcane mages to stay, so Duke must find a good place for Mulali and Levin.
"Tomorrow we will go to Beverly Manor to buy a house. You guys will stay in a nearby hotel for one night first."
Levin naturally allowed Duke to arrange things without saying a word.
Mulali said: "Mr. Duke, my aunt lives in Beverly Manor. I can go and stay there for one night and find out how many houses are for sale in Beverly Manor."
"Yes, okay." Duke nodded in agreement.
Although Mulali is his nominal assistant, the Black Snake family gives away farms, shops, and shares, so it is impossible for him to treat her as an ordinary assistant.
He felt that he and Mulali had a more cooperative relationship, so he was willing to give the other party a certain degree of freedom.
Send off Mulali.
Duke called to Levin: "Let's go to the Arcane Mage Hall for dinner first."
