Chapter 166 The Distant Holy City
Klein looked at Ophelia's eyes that suddenly lit up, and felt secretly uneasy.
"What, what happened?"
"Klein, you've been to the Holy City. Can you get a loom?"
"A loom? That wooden frame used for weaving linen? What do you want it for?"
It was popular among people in the Holy City to wear linen. When he had visited the Holy City before, he had also observed the process of making linen.
But it is too cumbersome and the weaving process is very complicated and cannot be completed overnight.
The time wasted on weaving could be spent on hunting and mining.
“I like wearing linen, so I wanted to try weaving my own.”
"You can weave?" Klein was surprised. He suddenly felt that Ophelia was too omnipotent.
Ophelia shook her head honestly. "No, but it wouldn't hurt to try. And if I don't try, how do I know I can't do it?"
"Just tell me if you can help me get a loom. I'll give you any amount of crystals."
Klein pursed his lips. "I can only do my best. After all, no one would be willing to give out something like this."
The loom is an important tool for weaving, and saints generally will not allow the loom to be leaked.
"Okay, if it really doesn't work, I'll think of other ways." Ophelia didn't force it.
Seeing Ophelia being so considerate, Klein felt a little unhappy.
He held Ophelia's hand, his eyes darkening slightly. "Ophelia, we are partners. You can ask me to do things. You don't have to be so polite to me."
During this time together, he also saw Ophelia throwing tantrums at Taylor.
She would also strongly ask him to do certain things, and although Taylor would be shy and reluctant, he would still agree to her lovingly.
Whenever he saw this, he envied Taylor.
"Well, okay, I'll try my best."
Ophelia felt a little embarrassed when her hand was suddenly held by someone.
She subconsciously wanted to smoke, but then she remembered their relationship as a couple and had to force herself to restrain her instinct.
Klein could feel Ophelia's resistance and her attempts to accept herself.
He also knew that he couldn't push her too hard, so he held her hand for a while longer and then let go.
Ophelia breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and made an excuse to leave the room.
Klein went directly to Wanshou City to find Maya, who was a little surprised to see her.
"Why are you here, White Tiger King? Is there something wrong with Ophelia?"
When Maya saw this, she immediately stood up.
Before leaving, his young master told him to ensure Ophelia's safety.
So during the time that the young master is away, he must not let anything happen to Ophelia.
Otherwise, you will be in trouble.
"Ophelia, I want a loom."
"A loom? That thing is only available in the Holy City. Hasn't she given up yet?" Maya was surprised at Ophelia's perseverance.
"Well, I know you have a way to pass the message to the Holy City."
"Go tell Zeref that I'll trade him a purple crystal for a loom."
"A purple crystal??" Maya opened her mouth in surprise.
In fact, crystals can be circulated not only because they are easy to carry and store, but also, and most importantly, because crystals that are blue or above contain energy fluctuations.
Such energy can enhance male strength.
The reason why the various families in the Holy City became superior tribes is because their people are powerful.
The reason why they can become powerful is that they obtain the energy in the crystal and thus improve their strength.
Of course, such secret information was not passed on to the lower tribes, and crystals of blue or above would not appear in the lower tribes.
Purple crystals are extremely rare, and an entire mine may not produce fifty pieces a year.
It was really generous of Klein to directly take out a purple crystal for a loom.
"You know that crystals can improve your strength, right?" Maya whispered.
"nature."
"Then you are willing to exchange it for a loom."
Klein's expression remained calm. "If she wants it, I'm willing."
Seeing the happy expression on Klein's face, Maya secretly gave him a thumbs up.
Ophelia's methods were indeed powerful. Not only did she make her own young master bow down to her, but even the White Tiger King was willing to give her crystals.
Since Klein said so, Maya naturally did not refuse.
He immediately asked the male Feather Clan members in the City of Beasts to pass the news to Zeref, who was far away in the Holy City. He also specifically instructed that the matter was extremely urgent and that he must speak to Zeref in person.
Three days later, the Holy City.
In a magnificent stone house sat a young man with a serious face.
The male kept a serious face and listened to the report of the news.
If Ophelia were here, she would find that the windows here are made of glass.
Although it is not transparent, it already has the prototype of glass.
"Master, Princess Sophie is here and wants to see you."
Zeref didn't even raise his eyes and continued to listen to the report from the person below.
Seeing this, the beast servant could only bow and retreat.
A young female in a yellow linen dress who was waiting outside hurried forward to ask.
"Is Brother Ze willing to see me?"
The beast servant shook his head. "I'm busy with my business and don't have time to see the princess."
Sophie pouts in dissatisfaction upon hearing this. "Official business is official business again. How does he get so much official business to handle every day?"
"It's been a month since he came back from Wanshou City, and I haven't been able to see him. Is it because he doesn't want to see me, or is he really too busy to have time?"
The beast servant didn't dare to say anything.
But in fact, Sophie also knew that Zeref just didn't want to see her.
Otherwise, even if I had time to eat, I could see her and talk to her.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a familiar face hurried past him.
"Isn't that Jiuying?"
The beast servant looked up. "It's Jiuying, the young master's most trusted beast servant."
"He's so anxious, but what happened?"
"Slave, I don't know."
Jiuying handles the young master's confidential matters, and these low-level beast servants are not qualified to know.
Sophie rolled her eyes and waved her hand. "Alright, you go down, I'll go back by myself."
The beast servant knew that Sophie came here every few days and was extremely familiar with the way out of the house.
So he said nothing more and retreated obediently.
After he left, Sophie looked around to make sure there was no one around before tiptoeing forward.
She approached the meeting room in the mansion, put her head against the wall, and listened eavesdropped.
In the conference room, Klein saw Jiuying coming over and raised his hand to stop his subordinates from reporting.
"You go down first."
"Yes, Master."
The male left obediently. When he was leaving, he stopped when he saw Sophie hiding outside the door and eavesdropping.
Sophie winked at him and told him to leave quickly.
The male knew that Sophie was Klein's future partner, so he didn't stop.
Jiuying knelt on one knee in the room and said, "Master, there is news from Wanshou City."
"But oh, what's wrong with her?"
"Lord Maya, I've sent word that I want a loom. The White Tiger King has promised to exchange it for a purple crystal."
Loom? White Tiger King. Putting these words together, Zeref thought of Ophelia and had a new idea.
When he was still in the Fu tribe, he saw Ophelia planting several types of hemp plants such as jute and castor.
Now it seems that she wants to make her own linen.
