Chapter 259: The scroll benefits are divided into many parts, and old Arthur is dying.
80 billion magic crystals, are you using them to feed a beggar?
Lin Luo knew that this was because the Aklan Empire had a strong fist and a rich and powerful country, so it naturally wanted to use its power to suppress others.
If he really wants to be ruthless, I'm afraid Lin Luo will have to fight with them before he can retreat safely.
His mind moved slightly, and he already had an idea in his mind.
Share!
The word "share" is most appropriate for this industry where the profits are huge and the final value is immeasurable.
The Aklan Empire is vast and has tens of billions of subjects.
Even though only one in a thousand people possess magical talent, with such a huge population base, the number of mages accumulated over the years is terrifying enough.
The more people there are, the greater the demand.
With the foundation of the Aklan Empire, you can become rich even if you choose to sell at a low price but high volume.
According to incomplete statistics, there are nearly one million mages in the capital of Aklan alone, which has a population of tens of millions!
The entire royal capital is filled with all kinds of mages of all levels, engaged in various industries. It is like a city of mages.
Walking on the street, almost no one dares to be arrogant.
Because you never know whether the old coin in front of you will pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, and then you won’t even know how you died.
Some people even joked that if a brick was thrown from the Mage Tower in the center of the royal capital, the person who threw it would probably be overwhelmed by a pile of spells before the brick even flew halfway.
You know what, there are really stupid people who have done this.
The effect was also very significant. A ninth-level wizard who was once so famous was surrounded by hundreds of men and was forcibly castrated 981 times.
And without any anesthesia...
It is said that the wizard still wears iron shorts made of meteorite iron, which is used as a topic of conversation after dinner.
Of course, it can be seen from these small things that magicians are not rare in the Aklan Empire, but high-level magicians are relatively rare.
But Lin Luo suddenly recalled the hundreds of researchers who had surrounded him.
There are more than ten eleventh-level mages, and the rest are mostly high-level tenth-level mages.
In terms of rank, it is naturally not weak.
It seems that the Aklan Empire is not short of high-level talents, it only lacks twelfth-level peak mages and combat mages with rich combat experience.
That’s right, Lin Luo’s evaluation of these high-level researchers is “just for show!”
The reason they are at a high level is because of their own efforts and ample resources, not because they have strong talents in cultivation.
In such a huge Aklan Empire, if resources were allocated, it would be possible to raise a pig, let alone a person to the peak of the eleventh level.
Perhaps, there are a small number of people who have extremely high talents.
But they were fully focused on the research of magic and magic weapons, and didn't pay much attention to combat matters, so they were still just fakes.
So, these hundreds of people can actually play, but they can only play in a favorable situation.
If you encounter a situation that is not going your way, don't expect to be able to hold on. A few battlefield veterans can beat them like chopping melons and vegetables.
Not to mention the high-level orcs with magic immunity, there is absolutely no reason for them to win.
But it is undeniable that
These old men and women are all treasures.
Their knowledge of magic, research experience, creative ideas, etc. are all indispensable cornerstones of the Aklan Empire.
The combined importance of all of them is only slightly lower than that of a twelfth-rank Imperial Guardian.
Lin Luo watched as the high-level officials of the Aklan Empire cooperated with each other and acted out a plan to reduce the amount from 100 billion to 80 billion.
It's getting more and more outrageous...
80 billion magic crystals. If it were the Lin Luo of the past, he would have agreed without even blinking an eye.
If the other person is a woman, I'd even pay for her.
But now,
"Eighty billion? Do you think I have no power behind me?"
Lin Luo interrupted everyone's conversation coldly and said mercilessly.
Obviously, the royal capital is the capital of the Aklan Empire, and the Aklan officials, as the host, also have a different kind of confidence.
"No, no, actually, 80 billion is just a temporary estimate. I wonder if Mr. Lin Miao has any other opinions?"
The speaker was a tenth-level mage, his face full of pride.
"Lin Miao" said he was a tenth-level mage, and he was too.
Moreover, this is their territory, with countless powerful people, so these senior officials naturally will not be afraid at all.
Besides,
A system of spell scrolls covering almost all kinds of rules, as well as a massive amount of third-level rule power.
All these things made the Aklan Empire extremely wary.
Therefore, the task assigned to him was to trick Lin Luo into revealing his true identity, and preferably to find out the strength of the forces behind him, so that the Aklan Empire could be prepared.
This is why some officials are rebellious and like to play the bad guy.
"The scroll system is related to the nation's destiny. How dare you exchange it for such a disgustingly low price?"
Lin Luo hugged his arms, and the temperature in the entire conference room dropped sharply. The third-level ice rule was instantly revealed, and everyone shivered with cold.
"If you don't give me an explanation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to my teacher."
The other party was testing him sincerely, so he didn't give anyone a good look.
"Mr. Lin Miao, you're joking. We sincerely want to make friends with Master Luo Lin, so how could we do such a foolish thing?"
Davis's hands and feet were cold. How could he resist the third-level ice rules?
At the same time, all the officials were shocked and felt that even the air they breathed was cold.
"Sir, you misunderstood!"
The officials' faces turned red from the cold, but they did not dare to beg for mercy.
If we beg for mercy, where will the face of the Aklan Empire be?
Where is their reputation?
Seeing that the atmosphere in the meeting room was full of tension, Davis quickly spoke up and tried to smooth things over by playing the good cop.
"Mr. Lin Miao should also know that the authenticity of the scroll system still needs further testing, so we have temporarily set the price at 80 billion.
Please don’t be angry, sir, please don’t be angry…”
He was so anxious that he almost cried.
How could the power of rules be compared to ordinary cold? This temperature was bone-chillingly cold!
Although there was an eleventh-level general beside them, they did not dare to act rashly because of the unknown forces behind "Lin Miao".
Besides, he only uses the rules. You can't possibly use magic to deal with him, right?
But if we use the power of rules to fight against each other...
Didn't you see that the strongest eleventh-rank general was severely frozen? He couldn't even save himself!
It doesn’t work!
The officials tightened their clothes, with stubborn expressions on their faces, and refused to succumb to the severe cold.
Moreover, they also knew that Lin Luo did not use his full strength, so at most it would be a little cold, but not fatal.
The officials used their magic power to resist the severe cold, their chins trembled, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.
I didn't expect that Mage Lin Miao was also an unparalleled genius. At only tenth level, he had already mastered the third level rules of the ice system!
Doesn’t this mean that it’s only a matter of time for the other party to break through to the twelfth level?
If he hadn't died in the middle of the journey, he would have definitely been a designated twelfth-level strongman!
It’s just a pity that he is not a talent from the Aklan Empire.
Countless officials sighed inwardly.
Not all the officials present were supporters of Altria's princess party.
Some of them are also supporters of the eldest prince Sirt and the second prince Sifar.
Although they are not in the same camp, they represent the same kingdom. If Davis does not bring these people with him, there will inevitably be people gossiping.
Although Lin Luolu's move was quite provocative, it also frightened many officials with ulterior motives.
These people had wandering thoughts and did not want to complete the tasks assigned by their superiors. Instead, they focused their energy on how to win over "Lin Miao".
Davis represents old Arthur and Altria, who represent the other two princes who were crowned kings.
If this ruins the relationship, it will be difficult to win over the other party.
Everyone had different thoughts in their mind. The conference room was silent except for the clattering sound of teeth fighting.
The voice was a bit harsh, as if mocking everyone's arrogance.
After listening to Davis' explanation, Lin Luo slowly turned his head to look at the shivering old man with a "simple and honest" face.
The duet was passable, but of little use.
After a long time,
Lin Luo was originally expecting the other party to get angry and fight back with advanced rules, but in the end, the officials just swallowed their anger.
He had no choice but to retract the power of rules and looked at everyone with disappointment.
I also wanted to test the level of Aklan's high-end combat power so that I could determine how much I had been reckless.
In the end, the other party didn't take the bait.
Lin Luo broke the silence and said solemnly, "Isn't Mr. Davis's explanation a bit far-fetched?
I sincerely brought the inheritance magic crystal to the Aklan Empire, but you treated me like this.
And the price is so cheap...
Do you think that the new scroll, which can save the soldiers, is only worth 80 billion magic crystals?"
"Of course not." Everyone denied it in unison.
This hat of righteousness must not fall on their heads, what will outsiders think then?
What will the military generals think?
Before they could explain, Lin Luo pressed on, asking:
"Since it's not because the lives of soldiers are worthless, then you all think that there is no one in my Universe Pavilion?
Do you look down on my hundreds of predecessors, or do you think that the Aklan Empire is invincible and fearless?
Faced with Lin Luo's questioning, everyone shuddered and shook their heads.
The power behind "Lin Miao" has been revealed.
But this is too shocking!
Not only are there other seniors, but there are hundreds of them! I just don't know what kind of seniors they are?
If they were all at the same level as Master Lorraine, the Aklan Empire would not have to negotiate with them with such pride.
Just kneel down!
The senior officials could not tell the truth from the falsehood and were not sure whether Lin Luo was deliberately exaggerating to scare people.
But even if the other party is bluffing, among the hundreds of compromised people, even if there are only more than fifty strong ones, it is terrifying enough!
"No, no! We absolutely don't have such thoughts!"
"Mr. Lin Miao, don't misjudge an honest man. We are actually very opposed to this kind of pricing, but there are treacherous villains who are deliberately tempting us..."
"Yes, yes, they are the ones who are trying to instigate us to offer a low price! Mr. Lin Miao has a pair of discerning eyes and will definitely be able to see through their true character."
Everyone was still hurriedly explaining,
Davis took the initiative, pointing at a senior official under the second prince and insisting that it was the other party who instigated it!
"Mr. Lin Miao, please look, it's this thousand-year-old thief!
He is the one who is instigating us to lower the price. He is so mean! "
Upon hearing this, the senior official's eyes widened and his blood rushed to his head.
I have never seen such a shameless person!
"Dai, you bastard! I'm going to...
How dare you slander someone's innocence out of thin air! I absolutely did not instigate or incite anyone to lower the price! "
The tall and thin "middle-aged" man was so anxious that he was jumping up and down.
The Second Prince is recruiting talents widely. If he knew that there was a peerless genius like "Lin Miao", he would naturally be jealous.
But if he offended the other party because of him, Xifaer would not know how to punish him.
"Why, if it wasn't you who instigated it, then who was it?"
Davis looked serious, but he was actually talking to this person secretly through voice transmission.
"Han Jinyou, you also know the tempers of those people above you. I'm sorry to have wronged you this time. Just accept it~"
"I call it a mud horse!"
Han Jinyou's fat face couldn't stop shaking and he was extremely angry.
"Why don't you admit it?"
"The king is behind me. Do you think I should recognize him... or you?"
Davis' eyes flashed with mischief, and he looked at him with a grin, the threat in his eyes was self-evident.
Behind him is old Arthur. As long as Arthur is in power, the court will always favor the king's party and the princess's party.
Han Jinyou's face twisted for a moment, and he could only snort coldly.
The old ministers in the cabinet are people they cannot afford to offend, so naturally they dare not point fingers at these bigwigs.
He couldn't afford to offend old Arthur, as that would cost him his head!
After thinking about it, Han Jinyou had no choice but to accept it.
"Oh, old Arthur is barely alive, and it's clear he won't live long. I'll let you be proud for a while longer!"
He was furious and stood up to leave.
However, the officials followed the path of traditional mages, their bodies were weak and they were far from able to resist the power of rules.
Therefore, when he stood up in anger, two streams of clear water flowed down.
"Fuck!"
Han Jinyou screamed, sniffed his nose, and quickly covered his face and bent down to deal with the filth.
It's so embarrassing!
For a moment, the scene was a little funny, and everyone shrugged, trying hard to hold back their laughter.
Lin Luo didn't care about his old rival's defeat, and Davis was even happier.
"Ahhh~ Hehe..."
Dai Laozei sneezed and covered his face as he said, "If Mr. Lin Miao is not satisfied with the previous price, he can give a price and we can discuss it again."
Lin Luo nodded slightly.
These guys can't stand the torture!
It's only been a short while and he's already frozen like this. His health is really too poor.
Lin Luo was so victorious that he had no intention of giving up. He said with a slightly angry tone:
"Davis, we are all smart people. Instead of setting up traps by all means, it's better to ask directly.
If you have any questions, I can selectively answer them."
His meaning was very clear.
I've seen through your tricks and don't want to bother with you old foxes anymore.
As soon as Lin Luo finished speaking, the officials' faces froze slightly, but soon they calmed down again.
It was a tactic that was not worthy of public display, so there was nothing surprising about it being seen through.
"Mr. Lin Miao is absolutely right. This is our fault. We are deeply sorry..."
Davis' smile fell and he apologized quickly.
He knew that the method proposed by the cabinet would offend the other party, but he had to act according to the plan.
Everyone immediately changed their words and praised: "Mr. Lin Miao is really generous!"
They have lived for dozens or even hundreds of years, so naturally they are very thick-skinned.
