Chapter 37 Trust requires a price
Facing the little girl who suddenly appeared in front of everyone, the three old mages were shocked. Not to mention that they had already set up a magic barrier here, the huge evil power brought by Anjiela at the same time was enough to make them lose their lust. The one that came far more pure than the undead creatures like Lich who had experienced a hundred years of time, just like the blackest limit in the darkness, and like the dazzling light in the bright red.
Absolutely pure.
"This one is…..."
The old mage looked at Anjiela with some anxiety. He could clearly feel that the girl in front of him had no life, or in other words, they could all feel that the vitality in the girl's body did not come from the power of human beings themselves. However, looking at her appearance, she did not look like a lich or ghost-like necro creature. However, the evil aura emitted by this girl was obviously stronger and terrifying than those necro creatures.
Therefore, the old mage had to turn to Li Lin and ask.
"She is my devil."
Li Linwei introduced that he stopped talking. Although the old masters were half-believing and half-doubted about this answer, it seems that it is obviously not the time to pursue such a small matter.
"So, this lady, I would like to ask you, what do you mean by what you just said?"
"It's what I mean."
Angela raised her eyebrows slightly, and then told everyone what she had heard in Elas' room.
It turned out that Elas had joined forces with some people to overthrow and seize the status of the three great mages. It was obvious that they were very dissatisfied with the current policy of the Thousand Towers City, so they planned to take action and guide the city to the right. They believed that the current strategy of Thousand Towers City was to be too conservative and targeted, which was not conducive to the survival of the mixed races. Therefore, they planned to get close to the Five Nations Alliance and even accepted a series of plans they proposed to incorporate Thousand Towers City into it.
.In this way, the Five-Nation Alliance will keep its promise, give the mixed races some convenience, and give them opportunities and status. Ayras is one of these people. In fact, the reason why he targeted Li Lin was not even considered a conspiracy at all. Because these young nobles had long believed that the upper ruling class led by the old mage was corrupt and unwilling to make progress. So when Nia entered the city, these young nobles planned to use this matter as a breakthrough point and began to slowly shake the people's hearts.
"How is this possible?"
After listening to Angela's story, the faces of the three old mages became less beautiful.
"They don't have such strength! It is completely impossible to overthrow our rule."
"The problem is here, old stubborn people."
Angel pulled open the fan with a "pop".
"I heard that they had used the assistance of a master's association called the Red Robe Association, and according to the pointed-eared ape, they were enough to tear you three old guys into pieces together with their stiffness and body and brain."
"Red Robe Association!?"
This time, not only the three old mages were shocked, but Lianya also frowned. Only Li Lin looked at Niya with confusion, waiting for her explanation.
"They are branches of the Mage Society."
Nia quickly answered.
"The Red Roar Society is the wizard society..... Shadow. In fact, they undertake a lot of dirty work. Moreover, they look down on the Templars and believe that the mage's affairs should be handled by the mage themselves. They are a group of extreme mage supremacists. Although they are restrained externally, they are very obvious internally."
“Is there a possibility of exploitation?”
"Please give up this idea. Li Lin. The Red Robe Association is not like other departments of the Mage Association. They are born to do dirty work, and they hate the Magic Empire... I don't know the reason, but it is obvious that any Red Robe Master has no good impression of the ancient Magic Empire. They have gained the power of magic through another method, which is absolutely confidential, and even I can't find it. Because of this, they look down on those orthodox mages and think that they are just a bunch of stupid waste."
I see.
Li Lin frowned, thought carefully for a while, and finally understood why the three old mages were so surprised.
The Red Robe Association is a branch of the Mage Association, and the Mage Association is a unique product of the Five Kingdoms Alliance... It can be seen that this matter actually has a relationship with the Red Robe Mages, which means it has a relationship with the Five Kingdoms Alliance. After all, the current mages are not as strict as before, and their actions are strictly monitored by the Five Kingdoms. Among the three parties, the Mage Tower, the Temple and the Alliance, the Mage Tower is at the bottom and is subject to supervision by both. Therefore, it will not intervene simply for the expansion of its power. Moreover, based on the information obtained by Anjiela, the other party actually sent the Red Robe Mages who were completely incompatible with the Templars. It can be seen that this matter should not be known to the Temple. Then, all the inferences point to a result that people do not want to face.
"It seems that the alliance does not trust you."
Li Lin stared at the old mages in front of him and spoke.
""
The old mages remained silent. Obviously, this incident had a great impact on them. Indeed, all three of them were superior mages and ruled the city for many years. This was also the condition they required when they signed a treaty with the alliance. However, now it seems that the alliance is obviously not satisfied with the actions of the three of them. What's more, such mixed-race mages have never had too much contact with the mage association, and it is not an easy object to master. If the alliance suddenly proposes to replace them unilaterally, it will definitely cause turmoil in the city. What's more, with the abilities of the three old mages, ordinary people cannot cause too much harm to them.
Then, there is only the mage.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Li Lin."
The old mage stood up, wondering if it was because the information Anjiela said had hit him too hard, and he obviously didn't look as energetic as before.
“We cannot confirm it now…”
“I understand.”
Li Lin nodded and stood up too.
"In these days, I will temporarily live in the city and wait for your responses... If you are willing to give, I will naturally give you corresponding rewards."
That's all right now.
Walking back to the hotel, Li Lin felt that he was not feeling relaxed. Although Anjiela's appearance effectively alleviated the embarrassing situation that might have occurred, it was a bit unusual for the Thousand Towers City to attract attention so quickly. It would be fine if this was a coincidence, after all, the other party would not have thought that someone would try to use these mixed races to recreate a new magic kingdom.
Absurd ideas will only appear in the minds of those with powerful power and madmen.
However, after walking down the floating disc, Li Lin and his party met an unexpected guest.
"Mr. Fat Businessman, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, hello, dear guests, beautiful lady and great Master Jinye, it is a great honor to meet you again..."
The fat merchant's mouth was fluent and a long list of dizzy noble names popped up. It seemed that after he took back his life, he seemed to be interested in getting in touch with these noble people. Not to mention anything else, if the legendary Master Jinye could come to his small shop, his turnover should be able to rise by more than ten percentage points, and he might even become the largest city of Thousand Towers and even the entire northern country.
So, in front of Nia, the fat merchant generously expressed his willingness to give Li Lin a few magic props he collected to deal with the duel in a few days. Of course, this was naturally rejected by Li Lin. He did not have the habit of using other people's magic items. As an ancient orthodox mage, he only trusted the magic props he made himself. Instead of the treasures found in corpses, coffins or fishman's stomachs - God knows what kind of power or curse they hide?
However, since the fat businessman was so generous, he was really embarrassed to disappoint him. So Li Lin asked him to ask for some fine steel silver. The poor fat businessman immediately smiled stiffly, then turned around and left with a sad expression, and went to the warehouse to search for the precious wealth that he could not even bear to put on and sell.
"That pair of sisters has been working hard these days. It's almost time to give them some expression..."
Li Lin reached out to take out the soul crystal from his pocket. He was defeated in the battle a few days ago. The sealed mage's soul was imprisoned in this fascinating gem cage, making screams and sighs that ordinary people could not hear. At the same time, this also represents a huge power.
"Angela? Where are those sisters?"
"How could I know where they went?"
At this moment, among the dark shadows outside the bar in the noble area, two almost invisible black shadows were standing in the corner, communicating in a low voice.
"Sister......How long has Miss Angela been there? Why haven't she come back yet..."
"Who knows what she is doing, the half-elf has left...but, she wants us to wait here, let's wait."
"Um……………"
This is also a way of expression of destiny.
Sitting in the room, Anjie stretched her hands on her cheeks and stared at Li Lin intently. He was silently chanting spells, changing the shape of metals to make them more in line with his requirements. Nia also sat next to her, looking at all this thoughtfully with a nostalgic expression.
"I used to be like this, watching the birth of the other six magic weapons."
Nia didn't know whether she was talking to Angela or talking to herself.
"It is amazing to be born from this... The Arcane Wizards found another way to create life and did not disobey the will of the Creator. This shows that everything has its own way to follow, if they are willing to follow."
"But those stupid humans will only bring everything around them into big trouble until they are completely destroyed and will never correct it."
Angela obviously had a different view of Nia's words. It seemed that she had really forgotten the pair of sisters who were still waiting outside the tavern.
"Greed, cunning, stupid, short life... Even if they are given ten thousand years of life, they still feel that it is not enough. Eternity is always out of reach for them. They will make a deep impression on themselves, and they will destroy everything with their hearts and behave in a good manner... It's such a bastard logic. master, are you really going to stay here to help those old people?"
“Help is free.”
Li Lin cast a magic on the soul gem, stabilized his form, and then he divided his mind to answer Anjie's question.
"But what I need is a paid exchange... If your information is true, then we will have fun coming soon."
