Shane VII generously shared several legendary spells that he had researched for many years.
Including the [Demi-Lich Body] he was using, which was to wrap the remaining body of the Demi-Lich with the flesh and organs of a normal person, and even simulate heartbeat and breathing, and eat and excrete, but it retains many characteristics and immunity of the undead lich;
There was also the [Dragon's Curse] that was released when dealing with Ivyklathagra's "Sharp Teeth" before; as well as the famous necromancy magic [Soul Collapse Singularity] and a super transformation spell called [Nail into the Sky].
Especially [Nail into the Sky], Zuo Si thinks it would be more appropriate to call it [Satellite Launch Technique] or [Sun Feeding Technique].
Because the spell effect of this thing is to drop a target directly into the vacuum environment of outer space orbit.
If it were a living thing, it would not only have to endure the ultra-low temperature of minus 270 degrees Celsius, but also have no air to breathe. In the end, it would either freeze to death or suffocate to death.
If you are unlucky enough to be thrown directly into the sun, you will be evaporated in minutes, and not even the ashes will be left.
Anyway, no matter how you die, it will definitely not be a pleasant experience.
Of course, in addition to throwing creatures into space or the sun to kill them, this spell has another use, which is to launch artificial satellites.
Although the native gods or legendary spellcasters of the continent of Faerun have no idea what an artificial satellite is.
But Zuo Si knew very well that after mastering this spell, he would be able to let those top scientists who had studied magic begin to develop satellites powered by pure magical power and then launch them into low-Earth orbit.
It not only solves the problem of large-scale long-distance communication, but also expands the control range of the mastermind Isadora.
By then, by building a few more ground receiving stations and signal amplifiers, we will be able to truly project psychic signals to every corner of a continent or even a planet.
As for the most famous [Soul Collapse Singularity] of the Undead System, it is equally terrifying.
It activates a [Black Hole of Destruction] as a spell material, directly creating a conduit out of thin air, connecting the current material world with a plane filled with astonishing negative energy. At the same time, it continuously draws negative energy from the surrounding magic net and shadow magic net, and launches an indiscriminate massacre of creatures within a radius of 1,600 meters.
From start to finish, the total amount of damage done is about a thousand levels (that is, HD life dice).
What is the concept of this?
Even for a legendary dragon king like Ivyklathasagran "Sharptooth", the highest real occupation level brought by the dragon's age group is only fifty-six.
This means that if she is close enough to the central singularity where the spell is cast, and does not have an [Anti-Death Barrier] or other instant teleportation magic, there is a high probability that she will be corroded by the whistling negative energy and die quickly.
If used to kill high-level warriors like Jarlaxle, Entreri, and Drizzt who are only one step away from becoming legends, it can kill about fifty-five of them.
If it were adventurers with a professional level of around LV5, a conservative estimate would be two hundred deaths.
For ordinary soldiers and civilians without professional grades, the basic unit for calculation is thousands.
It can be said that among the many legendary magics, [Soul Collapse Singularity] is also one of the most lethal and terrifying types.
Of course, the prerequisites for learning are also very harsh. The research requirements for spell identification and the basic theory of negative energy are extremely high, and a deep understanding of the field of killing is also required.
If you don't have a spellcasting level of LV35 or above, don't expect to learn it.
In addition, the production process of [Black Hole of Destruction], a material necessary for casting spells, is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, it will go out of control and suck in people and everything around it.
However, although the [Spirit Collapse Singularity] is incredibly powerful, it has three most fatal flaws.
One of them is that the energy attribute is single, and it is easy to be restrained by the fourth ring [Anti-Death Barrier], and the spell damage is not produced all at once, but will continue to spread with the negative energy overflowing from the duct.
This means that as long as you don't die immediately, you can use instant teleportation spells or magic scrolls and props to escape.
The second fatal flaw is that the casting time is too long. It requires one to maintain full one minute of concentration during the casting. During this period, one must not be disturbed by anything, let alone be distracted to deal with enemy attacks.
This is absolutely fatal in a battle with a legendary wizard.
Taking the previous battle as an example, it didn't even take Ivyklathagra's "Sharp Teeth" a minute to strip off all the protective magic shields from Shane VII. Ten seconds at most was enough, and one minute was enough for several deaths.
The third point is that this spell does not distinguish between friend and foe, and its range is less than a hundred meters.
This is just like the weird nuclear weapons that the two world hegemons developed during the Cold War, whose killing range was even greater than their range.
Unless it is an undead creature that is completely immune to negative energy, such as a lich, dracolich, or vampire, anyone else who uses this spell must prepare an instantaneous teleportation magic, or set the conditions in advance to use [Accidental Magic] to bind a teleportation magic.
And if the enemy uses [Dimension Anchor] on you at this time, it would be really fun.
The reason why Shane VII did not use the [Soul Collapse Singularity] to kill Ivyklathasagran "Sharp Teeth" at that time was that, on the one hand, he did not want this enemy to die too easily and wanted to let the other party taste enough pain before dying. On the other hand, he was afraid that it would affect Zuo Si and Davian who fought alongside him.
In return, Zuo Si also shared some magical knowledge and systems from other worlds, which instantly opened the eyes of the Undead Emperor and even made him more convinced that his decision to use his life box in exchange for a spark to become a planeswalker was the right one.
If he didn't have to conquer all of Calimshan and Tethyr to restore the glory of the empire, he would have wanted to drop everything immediately and go see the huge floating city in another world, see the wizards who could produce all kinds of spells with just a wave of their wands, and appreciate Zendikar overflowing with magical energy and the world-destroying monsters called the Eldrazi Titans.
An endless world, unprecedented civilizations, all kinds of knowledge and fantastic ideas that cannot be described in words, and all kinds of bizarre creatures that cannot be measured by common sense...
It can be said that everything a mage desires is condensed in that tiny spark.
Most importantly, Shane VII felt with great realism that countless worlds and universes had opened up a gap to him! Although this gap was so narrow, it was 10,000 times wider than the planes he knew, and was filled with infinite possibilities.
But at the same time, he had never been as anxious and worried as he was at this moment, fearing that this rift would suddenly close forever.
spark!
spark!
spark!
Shane VII's mind was now filled with the ball of light that was about to emerge from Zuo Si's chest. From time to time, he would imagine which unknown world he should start exploring after he obtained the spark and became a planeswalker.
You should know that under normal circumstances, the most notable characteristic of a lich is that it almost never has strong emotional fluctuations and is always in an absolutely rational and calm state.
But now, he felt as if he was alive again, his heart filled with the ambition and passion of his youth.
In order to quickly restore the glory of the Shane Empire, the Undead Emperor dealt with all the elements involved in the rebellion in less than a few days. More than 80% of the nobles, wealthy businessmen and slave owners in the entire Kalin Port and the surrounding areas were purged, and the thieves' guilds and gang forces that were originally everywhere were completely wiped out.
With the emperor's special permission and the help of the army, Apke unified the underground world with almost no effort.
However, the previous businesses such as collecting protection fees, kidnapping and extortion, smuggling of contraband, and human trafficking are definitely no longer possible.
Fortunately, he had a quick mind and quickly integrated brothels, taverns, hotels, casinos, theaters and other places that originally belonged to other thieves' guilds, intending to use them as a foundation to vigorously develop the leisure and entertainment industry.
Moreover, these business locations are also very suitable for collecting intelligence, which is like killing two birds with one stone.
In addition, Apke also obtained the franchise rights to a portion of the port terminal and had a large warehouse that could be used to store various goods, truly realizing his childhood dream of being able to do business in both the black and white worlds.
In addition, as the huge wealth obtained from the confiscation of property was counted out, the city defense forces and the imperial guards also received the rewards they had been promised. Each of them received a salary that was almost equivalent to ten years of service, and they all shouted in ecstasy, "Long live the emperor."
What's even more interesting is that when it came time to distribute the women, they were surprised to find that they didn't even have to draw a lottery.
Because the number of wives, sisters, daughters and concubines of the nobles, wealthy merchants and slave owners combined far exceeded the total number of the city defense army and the imperial guards combined...
Yes!
You read that right!
This means that if everyone gets one, there will be some left over.
In addition, Shane VII was a half-lich and had no interest in forcibly possessing and conquering his enemies' wives, daughters, and sisters, let alone any physiological needs in this regard, so he distributed them all as prizes with a wave of his hand.
Officers and officials in power are selected first, and the rest are selected by ordinary soldiers.
However, ordinary soldiers had no objection to this.
After all, this is not a modern society on Earth that advocates equality for all (at least on the surface), but a feudal society with a strict hierarchical system, and even slavery had just been abolished.
But the most important thing is that these women are all very beautiful without exception, with outstanding figures and looks. Otherwise, they would not be qualified to be noticed by the upper ruling class. Even those who were selected were far beyond the limits of what ordinary soldiers could imagine.
In the past, they would not even dare to think about or touch such beauties.
But now, with the end of an operation to suppress the rebellion, happiness suddenly came.
All of a sudden, the two armies, which were notorious for participating in many coups in Calimshan's history, actually developed a strong admiration and loyalty to King Shane VII.
Because the previous emperors treated them as toilet paper, and would often promise them benefits crazily when they needed them, but in the end they would be considered lucky if they could fulfill one tenth of the promises.
But what about this legitimate emperor of the ancient Shan Empire? He came right up and offered the ultimate move, giving as much as he said, without any discounts.
If such a monarch is not worthy of loyalty, then there is no one in the world worthy of loyalty.
On the other hand, the process of transforming liberated slaves into free people was also progressing very smoothly.
With the help of the three churches of the God of Justice, the God of Suffering, and the God of Loyalty and Courage, the slaves were quickly divided into several major categories based on their skills and cultural level.
Those high-level slaves who were literate and knew how to manage were directly transformed on the spot into low-level officials, responsible for operating the workshops, manors and villages that they had previously managed.
If you do a good job, you will be promoted; if you do a bad job, you will be laid off or even punished, which quickly fills the huge gap of lack of grassroots management personnel.
Slaves who mastered handicraft skills such as carpentry, blacksmithing, oil pressing, sugar making, weaving, wine making, glass and pottery making, etc. were arranged in corresponding workshops to continue to engage in production in the fields they were familiar with.
The largest number of slaves were engaged in agricultural production. Some were allocated their own fields, some were hired by the government to raise poultry and livestock, and some were given plantations of cash crops such as apples, oranges, lemons, tobacco, olives, grapes, flax, and cotton.
Of course, means of production such as land cannot be given away for free.
All slaves acquired were required to pay an additional amount of money every year in addition to the fixed taxes, and it would take ten to twenty years for the land to truly become their own private property.
But even so, the slaves who obtained the land were still moved to tears with excitement.
Because compared to the previous days when they were on the same level as livestock, their new life now is like heaven.
Looking at those people who had just been allocated land, who were working in the wheat fields with farm tools in sweat, not caring about the scorching sun above their heads, but whose faces were filled with happiness and expectation, a thin old man walking on the country road wearing only a loin cloth slowly revealed a gratified smile.
"That's right! This is the world I expect to see, a country full of order and hope, where the weak will be protected."
A bearded man next to him, who only had one hand left and one eye blind, but looked very tall and mighty and was wearing armor, nodded approvingly: "Yes! This is what a normal world should look like.
Before, Kalinshan was like a patient with pus-soaked sores all over his body, full of pain and torture.
But now it is well, and it is bathed in order, law, and kindness again.”
"More than that! By abolishing slavery, hope and courage were rekindled in the hearts of these people who had previously been numb and resigned to their fate.
I think this is the most important thing.
However, there is one thing I don't quite understand, that is, why did Sean VII, who was originally a staunch supporter of slavery, suddenly change his mind?
Will he suddenly declare slavery legal again after a while?"
Another young warrior, who exuded bravery and composure, couldn't help but question.
It goes without saying that these three are not mortals at all, but Ilmater, the god of suffering, Tyr, the god of justice, and Torm, the body of loyalty and courage, who have descended in the form of incarnations.
The main reason they appeared here was because they wanted to witness this historic change with their own eyes and to ensure that no gods from other evil camps were secretly interfering.
Especially in the area of Calimshan, there is a widespread faith base for the goddess of night Shar and the prince of lies Cyric.
You must know that in this drastic change, the ones who died the most were the believers and church members of these two evil gods, so there is no guarantee that they will not take some retaliatory actions.
fortunately!
The worst fears of Tyr, Ilmater, and Torm did not come to pass.
Because Xirik is currently busy making the artifact "Xirik Sutra", he has no time and energy to take care of other things.
Shar is capable of some conspiracies, but she has always been cautious and would never jump out alone to face the Three Saints Alliance.
The only ones who caused some chaos were the fanatical followers of the late god of murder, Baal.
I don't know if they are crazy or mentally ill, but these guys actually tried to assassinate King Sean VII and some high-ranking officials.
As expected, the soul was directly pulled out of the body by the demilich and forcibly imprisoned in a special soul gem, and was eventually digested and absorbed to provide additional energy for the former.
Ilmater smiled and explained, “This is all thanks to Soth.
It was he who persuaded King Sean VII to abolish slavery in exchange for our support for his legitimacy.
As for whether the former will suddenly regret it afterwards, you don't need to worry at all.
Because Shane VII's last wish was to restore the former glory of the empire.
Once this goal is achieved, he will choose to give up power and hand over the country to Soth through marriage.
One of Soth's greatest characteristics is that he hates slavery and will provide the lower-class civilians with the most basic survival guarantees, which can be seen from his actions in Luskan.
What's more, our church now has the power to enforce the law, which is the most obvious signal.
Remember, we also gained the same authority over the local church after Luskan was conquered and transformed."
"Ah! Now that you mention it, I remember. I have a paladin believer named Kaidong who is in Luskan right now. Although he has not been able to train paladins as he wished, he has trained a large number of qualified law enforcement officers." A golden holy light flashed in Tom's eyes.
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.
Although Soth himself is not inclined towards kindness, he is inclined towards order and does not like disorder and chaos.
And perhaps due to his previous upbringing and living environment, his attitude towards civilians, especially human civilians, is far more merciful than that of the rulers of most countries.
At the same time, they also possess a lot of knowledge that can increase food production, improve the variety of goods, and make a country more prosperous.
Most importantly, South is well aware of the important and indispensable role of law, order, fairness and morality at the social level.
Even if he does not fully agree with our doctrines, he is willing to cooperate and give us certain law enforcement powers so that the entire society can maintain an orderly, neutral, or even slightly kind state.
Although this is still a little short of our ideal perfect state of lawful goodness, if we look at it from the perspective of the entire world, it is undoubtedly a huge progress.
So I think we can have more collaborations like this one in the future.
Especially for those areas that are still wild, chaotic and full of crime, it is better to let Thoth rule them rather than letting the people there continue to be corrupt and degenerate.
I admit that some of his methods do seem like those of a cold-blooded tyrant.
In particular, the tremendous suffering endured by the poor at the bottom has been alleviated to a great extent.
Maybe he is not the best choice, but he is the one we can find that is most likely to bring positive changes to this continent. "
Ilmater expressed his thoughts in front of his two allies.
As the second god in the entire continent of Faerun to notice Zuo Si's existence after Talona, he spent a lot of time observing this young man who came from another dimension, both in his thoughts and behavior, and finally made such a judgment.
After hearing these words, the God of Justice Tyr fell into deep thought. After about two or three minutes, he responded, "What you said makes sense. I will let the church try to cooperate with Soth.
But as for supporting him in expanding his influence outward, we should observe for a while longer.
Don't forget that he is a madman who has no fear of the gods when he is threatened.
They even dared to use the terrifying world-destroying monsters like the Eldrazi as a bargaining chip to intimidate the Pantheon. "
"Hahahaha! I think this young man is very courageous! You know, in the continent of Faerun, he is the only mortal who dares to directly question the gods and threaten the gods." Tom couldn't help laughing.
He would never forget the spectacular scene of the Pantheon falling silent instantly after Zuo Si explained what the Odrachi were.
You know, even when Io, the god above all gods, came and announced that he would cast all the gods down to earth and walk the mortal world as the only saint, the gods did not choose to remain silent. At least several powerful gods stood up and argued.
Among them, the reactions of the god of justice Tyr and the second-generation magic goddess were particularly intense.
However, Zuo Si, with his mortal body that is far weaker than that of a god, created a famous scene that even Io, the god above gods, could not achieve.
Being fearless and challenging the strong with the weak is exactly the quality that Torm, a man of loyalty and courage, admires most.
Just as the three incarnations of the gods were admiring the wonderful sight after the slaves were liberated and discussing how to let the light of order and kindness cover more places, far away in a side hall of the Royal Palace in Port Calin, Zuo Si was checking a list sent by Jeffrey.
As for the content, it is also very simple, that is, the treasure in the "Sharp Teeth" lair of Ivyklathara.
It has to be said that this legendary dragon king, who had collected taxes in Calimshan, Tethyr, and Amn for hundreds of years, had a very rich family background, so rich that the word "rich enough to rival a country" was an insult rather than a compliment when used to describe her.
The number of various gemstones alone is enough to fill a well with a diameter of more than seven meters and a depth of more than fifty meters.
Yes!
You read that right!
Just fill up a well!
As for the number of gold coins, it was impossible to count them in a short time and they could only be roughly weighed.
Including some other melted gold bars and gold bricks, the total is 2,500 tons.
Of course, since the gold content of gold coins in different eras and countries is different, this number may be halved.
But that’s still more than 1,250 tons!
If converted into Amn gold coins, there would be at least 250 million pieces.
However, the proportion of real gold coins is not high. Instead, there are more things like gilded domes, golden figurines for burial, and pure gold pillars inlaid with gems left over from the ancient creator race.
In addition, a full one hundred prepared life-saving gems were found in the lair;
Six boxes of over a thousand bottles of super-breathing magic potions; more than seventy spell books that might have been left behind by dragon slayers; forty-five wands storing different spells; more than six hundred and seventy scrolls of various arcane and divine spells; countless rare magic metals such as mithril, adamantium, cold iron, and refined silver; about a dozen dragon-exclusive magic equipment and hundreds of weapons, armor, rings, amulets, etc. with different levels of enchantment.
As for the last, there are a large number of sculptures, paintings, crafts, antiques, hand-woven tapestries and furniture by famous artists.
Because dragons are naturally able to appreciate a wide variety of different kinds of "beauty", they are comparable to the best masters in the industry in judging the value of works of art and crafts.
After scanning the list from beginning to end, Zuo Si couldn't help but sigh slightly, "The treasures in Ivykola Sagran's lair are really amazing. No wonder she is always confident in her own strength and is not afraid of fighting alone against many people."
Jeffrey nodded in agreement. "Yes! When I first saw it, I even thought I was seeing an illusion created by magic. I bet that many ancient tombs from the Giant Empire in the Kalin Desert have been dug up by Sharp Teeth. Otherwise, such a huge and amazing wealth could not have been accumulated just by taxation."
"But now all these riches are ours. To be honest, I still don't understand why dragons are so keen on hoarding wealth. Don't they understand that the more wealth they accumulate, the more likely they are to be snooped? And once they die, all their wealth will fall into the hands of their enemies. By the way, did you encounter any trouble when you led people to raid the dragon's nest this time?"
Zuo Si asked casually while fiddling with the [Akabar's Blade Ring] in his hand.
Needless to say, this ring was specially selected from many treasures and is also called the [Chisali Ring].
It is different from an ordinary magic ring. It is a magic item that can be activated by a specific password and then fly down from the finger and turn into a circle of sword blades.
The effect is somewhat similar to the six-ring magic - [Blade Wall], which can cause horrific physical damage to nearby enemies, similar to being cut into pieces.
It is said that the first person to invent and own this magic ring was the founder of the Shane Empire - old Akaba Shane.
Later, this technique was only circulated among the royal family of Shane, and more than a dozen of them were produced.
The biggest feature and advantage of a war blade ring like this is actually the same as that of a magic storage ring, that is, after equipping it, there is no need to keep it activated all the time, but you can switch to it and activate it when needed.
If you sell it on the market, it will cost at least 200,000 gold coins.
However, Zuo Si was obviously not short of money. Instead, he developed a strong interest in old Akaba Shane.
Although many books and scholars describe this founding monarch as a despicable, shameless, sinister, cunning and evil person who even schemed against his own descendants and would stop at nothing to gain more power.
But he believed that the other party had great talent both in governing the country and in the field of magic research.
Apart from anything else, just from the various techniques and enchantments used in [Akabar's War Blade Ring], it can be seen that old Akabar Shane has a wild imagination and a deep understanding of the system of transformation.
It's a pity that this legendary figure has been dead for so long that it is extremely difficult to even resurrect him.
However, Jeffrey obviously didn't know what Zuo Si was thinking at the moment, and responded with a wry smile: "It's more than difficult. At the beginning, we almost couldn't find the entrance.
This fellow Iryklathasagran had actually set up barriers and maze-like protections around his lair, and installed more than a dozen portals, and even placed a noble wind giant and a noble fire giant on the necessary route.
It took me seven full days just to break the barrier and those portals leading to unknown places, and in the end I even led my men to fight two giants.
Fortunately, three core members arrived in time after receiving the distress signal, otherwise I might not have been able to defeat them.
But the good thing is that after this battle, we successfully captured two djinn nobles who have the power to grant wishes."
After that, Jeffrey took out two magic-sealing bottles of completely different colors from his waist bag.
One of them was red in color, and it looked like it was on fire inside, emitting a crimson light. It was obvious at a glance that it was a prisoner of the fire giant noble.
The other one was blue-green in color, and one could faintly hear the humming sound of high-speed airflow rotating. It was undoubtedly the place where the Wind Giant noble was imprisoned.
You should know that the giant nobles are different from ordinary giants. Not only do they have stronger vitality and magical abilities, but their basic attributes are also far superior to their peers.
Especially these two at the moment, who can be regarded by Sharp Tooth as guards to guard the nest, and can also make Jeffrey suffer. It takes four core members to work together to deal with them. They are most likely legendary creatures.
Zuo Si took it and roughly felt the strength. Without saying anything, he made it into two treasure cards, and then materialized the bottle and handed it to the other party: "Take these two bottles back, send one to the floating city, and leave the other in the wizard tower.
If anyone needs to make a wish, they can open the bottle and summon the djinn.
As for how to distribute them specifically, you can discuss and set a rule among yourselves. Anyway, it’s best not to waste three wishes a day.”
"Give them all to us? Won't you keep one for yourself?"
Jeffrey's eyes widened in surprise.
After all, the real wishing spell requires at least 25,000 gold coins for the casting materials.
If it is a special wish or simulation of a spell, additional budget will be required.
In addition, using the wishing spell puts a huge burden on the body. Given the poor physical attributes of most mages, they will have to lie in bed for at least a few days to recover, and they may even suffer a permanent loss of some magic power.
Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, or only wishing can achieve the goal, wizards and warlocks who master the Nine-Ring Magic will not use it easily.
But the wishing technique granted by the giant is different. You don’t need to pay any price for it. It’s truly “free”.
No one can resist this powerful wish-making power for free.
In Jeffrey's opinion, as the leader of the organization, it would be reasonable for Zuo Si to take all the good stuff like this. Why would he give it all up to his subordinates?
But just a second later, he understood the reason.
Because five demon-sealing bottles suddenly appeared out of thin air on the table in front of him, each containing a fire giant.
Not only that, Zuo Si also took out a magic ring that could summon fire giants——[Controlled by Omar V]
When Jeffrey saw this, the corners of his mouth twitched violently, and he immediately asked in an uncertain tone: "Where did you get so many props that can summon fire giants? Is it true that in the Calimshan region, as those adventurers said, as long as you find an ancient tomb, you can dig out the magic bottle or magic lamp that seals the giant?"
Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "No, you think too much.
Even if Calimshan originally had so many magic bottles or magic lamps that sealed the giants, there would not be much left after thousands of years of consumption.
You know, most giants will not obey a mortal.
They usually demand three wishes in exchange for freedom, otherwise they will not grant the ability to make wishes.
Unless they encounter a powerful spellcaster who has the ability to kill them, they will choose to obey.
I got these magic bottles that seal the fire giants from a trade with another legendary wizard, and the ring is a trophy. "
"Well, it seems that you really don't need these two giant nobles."
Jeffrey sighed with a wry smile and carefully put the bottle back into his waist bag.
He really couldn't believe that the Wishing Djinn, which was as valuable as a legendary magic item or even a sub-artifact in the eyes of most high-level wizards, could actually be sold wholesale from the leader of the organization.
Even the sense of accomplishment and joy that came from capturing the two giant nobles disappeared at this moment, leaving only deep admiration.
After all, with six fire giants, they can make eighteen wishes for free in a day, which means five hundred and forty wishes in a month and six thousand five hundred and seventy wishes in a year.
If used to create wealth, based on the calculation that each wish can create non-magical items worth 25,000 gold coins, the total value of the items is 164.25 million gold coins.
At this moment, Jeffrey finally realized why Ivyklathagra "Sharptooth" possessed such a huge fortune and so many gems and magical items.
It's not that she's levying heavy taxes in Amn, Calimshan, and Tethyr, but that she can obtain nine wishes from three djinn every day.
Although a large amount of energy is consumed when making high-level magic items or even artifacts, the amount accumulated over the years is still a terrifying astronomical figure.
No wonder there is a saying among mages and warlocks that no matter how powerful a divine weapon is, it may not be as practical as a fire giant who can get three free wishes every day.
Unfortunately, catching the fire giant is not an easy task.
After a brief silence, Jeffrey quickly took out an exquisite envelope with a faint scent of perfume from his arms and gently placed it on the table.
"What's this?"
Zuo Si rubbed his nose subconsciously.
Ever since he acquired the dragon form, his sense of smell has surpassed that of most canine creatures, and he immediately felt that the smell seemed somewhat familiar.
Jeffrey answered without hesitation, "This is a diplomatic letter sent by an envoy. The Supreme Lady of the Silver Moon Alliance, Alustriel Silverhand, and the Golden Dragon Queen, Valamaradace, want to visit Luskan and convene a general meeting of the Northern Lords' Alliance there. Both Waterdeep and Neverwinter will send representatives to attend."
"You mean... they are coming for me?" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"That's obvious. Besides, I suggest you read the contents of the letter."
Jeffrey's tone suddenly became extremely ambiguous.
Needless to say, he had already secretly opened the letter and read its contents.
Moreover, this power was granted by Zuo Si himself.
Just like that, under Jeffrey's gaze, Zuo Si quickly took out the letter and glanced at it at a very fast speed. The more he read, the more he felt something was wrong.
After all, who would talk so much about taking a bath together in the bathroom in a letter, and express in a very earnest tone that they hope to do it again in Luskan?
"Hey! Sir, although I shouldn't interfere with your private life, aren't you and Ms. Elastro a little too close? If someone dies accidentally, it will become very troublesome when disputes arise between the organization and the Harper Alliance in the future." Jeffrey reminded carefully.
Zuo Si rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Don't worry about these useless things, nothing has ever happened between us."
"Really? I don't believe it! Even the maids in the palace are saying that you are gifted. The last time I went to Silvermoon City, I spent three hours alone with Alustriel in the bathroom. It is said that when she came out of the bathroom, the lady had a satisfied expression on her face."
As he said this, Jeffrey's eyes revealed a hint of admiration.
They are indeed the chosen ones of the Magic Goddess!
Physical strength is good! If it were any other mage, after three hours of "bloody battle", he would probably die in the bathroom.
As the saying goes, it takes only one mouth to spread a rumor, but it takes a lot of effort to refute it.
Zuo Si, who had experienced the Internet age, knew very well that he couldn't clear himself of suspicion even if he jumped into the sea, so he simply gave up and waved his hand nonchalantly, saying, "Don't talk nonsense. Go and respond to the envoy and say that I agree with Ms. Alustriel's request, and then notify Luskan City Hall to start preparations. Remember, this is an important diplomatic event, and there must be no mistakes."
"Please rest assured, I swear that whoever wants to make trouble in secret will pay a heavy price for it."
Jeffrey gave his assurance solemnly, then turned around and cast a teleportation magic and disappeared on the spot.
After he left, Zuo Si took out an address from his pocket and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Now, it's time to visit this red dragon named Hephaestus and retrieve the dormant magic crystal. Dear Crenshinibon, your real master is coming soon."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Zuo Si immediately began to cast precise teleportation magic, and after a while he left the palace of Kalin Port, without noticing that a girl not far away was staring at him with curious eyes.
The girl was none other than one of the descendants of King Shane VII and the only candidate designated as the crown prince - Aisha Shane.
She was full of curiosity about this young man who was destined to become her husband in the future.
