Chapter 488 Wingless Angel
"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't think it's necessary. When the next batch of supplies transport team arrives in three days, the current situation will be restored."
Mrs. Mandel gnashed her teeth secretly, trying her best to maintain her outward elegance, and nodded with a forced smile.
"Okay, I'll come back to bother you in three days. I'm sure your quality of life will have returned to normal by then."
After taking a sip of red tea, Avis smiled and changed the subject.
"By the way, dear Ms. Mandel, why didn't I see your little pet today?"
"Humph, it's just a pet. I'll throw it away when I get tired of playing with it!"
Ignoring the mockery in Anvis's eyes, Mrs. Mandel responded indifferently.
At the same time, she approved the document proposing to secretly send people to find the "Circle of Truth" organization and try to contact them, and also arranged specific investigation personnel.
"Really? Then why did you create an illusion to amuse yourself?"
Avis calmly withdrew his mental power from the document and looked at the bottom of the desk, his tone pretending to be curious.
"Your perception is surprisingly sharp, Mr. Mirror Man."
The tip of the quill in her hand trembled violently, leaving a small mark of ink on the paper. Mrs. Mandel finally stopped moving, her charming purple eyes turned to Avis, her tone full of gunpowder.
"Well, I don't know where they got the news from, but the puppy's family came to find them. I couldn't bear to see their pitiful eyes, so I kindly sent them back to be reunited."
Prior to this, the deputy leader of the Spark Organization, Shuster, met with her privately and expressed his hope to exchange for Freya's brother.
As an eighth-level peak warrior, Xiu Te's strength was much stronger than hers, so it was difficult for her to refuse. However, since she had the support of the Glory Alliance, the other party's attitude was not particularly tough.
After reaching an agreement, she handed her pet to him. In return, the other party paid her a considerable amount of resources, which was more than ten times the price she had previously bid.
Although it seemed that she had made a lot of money, she still felt unhappy.
A down-and-out prince with elven blood is not something you can find at any time.
Especially since Landon came with Freya not long after Anvis left, it was hard for her to believe that this matter had nothing to do with the damn guy in front of her.
"Oh, I see. Your noble character is truly admirable, Ms. Mandel—"
Hearing Mrs. Mandel's answer, Anvis raised his hands and folded them over his chest, slightly tilted his face up, and put on a hypocritical look of being touched. His acting was so exaggerated that Mrs. Mandel became furious.
"Yes, but no matter what, a woman who lost her husband has now lost her lovely pet who once accompanied her.
As a gentleman, would you be willing to offer a little comfort to this poor lady?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Mandel raised her hand and took out an exquisite black collar from the drawer, placed it on the table, and gave Avis a provocative look.
Obviously, this guy himself is her prey, but he has no self-awareness at all and comes to tease her every day.
If she hadn't known that her superiors were currently arranging for the Ninth Rank to secretly monitor the man in the mirror and it was difficult to take action, she would have wanted to subdue him by force with her own strength right now, and pin him to the sofa and beat him until he cried for mercy.
"Actually, it's not impossible..."
Glancing at her, Avis spoke in a deep voice, and the words he said made Mrs. Mandel stunned for a moment.
"But the prerequisite is that you can successfully make me lose my mind first."
But when she was about to say something, Anvis raised the teacup in his hand to her.
“For example, you were very wise today and did not continue to add Enchanting Dream to the black tea, but instead switched to a new psychedelic substance.
I tasted some fresh white rambutan and phantom pollen. Let me think... today's purity is about 70% of the [Fallen Maze], right?"
As he spoke, Avis put down his teacup and looked at Mrs. Mandel with a look that even had a bit of fake innocence.
"Unfortunately, I am somewhat resistant to love potions. Of course, if the purity of the Debauchery you add next time is higher, I might really fall for it—"
"…Has anyone ever told you that you are a complete asshole?!"
Her long eyelashes trembled, and Mrs. Mandel finally became a little angry and embarrassed.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Picking up the delicate bone china teapot, Avis poured himself another cup of black tea and sipped it happily.
I just like to see you greedy for me but unable to have me.
Simply drugging his clone would not be able to affect the rationality of the original body, especially since he has now broken through to the eighth level.
It was a novel experience to directly taste the drugged black tea. He felt a little hot and dizzy now, but that was all.
While Avis's avatar in the mirror was wandering around leisurely, attracting hatred from the outside world, his other avatar, Raphael, who was in charge of the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce, became a little busy.
Although the war that had engulfed the Federation had eased temporarily, frictions still broke out from time to time between the small kingdoms.
Since all the royal families of small and medium-sized kingdoms have basically joined the Glory Alliance camp, the overall situation in the federation has formed a situation of separation of multiple forces such as resistance organizations, the Glory Alliance, and many large kingdoms.
Once a war breaks out, it will no longer be a small fight between individual small kingdoms, but a systematic battle between large armies.
Therefore, the countries in the Federation are currently engaged in an unprecedented large-scale arms race. The business of munitions has become extremely hot for a time, and various special life professions such as constructors, alchemists, and enchanters have ushered in a wave of rapid development.
Many large chambers of commerce that had previously established a firm foothold in the Federation once again reaped rich war dividends.
In particular, a few large chambers of commerce that mainly engage in magic construction business, such as the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce and the Ever Gold Crown Chamber of Commerce, received a large number of orders and made a lot of money.
Due to the previous price war, many small and medium-sized chambers of commerce left the market at a loss and abandoned the magic construction business, and the remaining factories and equipment were also acquired by many large chambers of commerce.
As a result, there are only a few large chambers of commerce left that can barely compete with the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce and the Evergrande Crown Chamber of Commerce in terms of magical construction.
It is worth mentioning that other chambers of commerce saw the profitability and raised the prices of military supplies.
The Black Ring Chamber of Commerce Alliance was able to stick to its original aspirations and continue to supply some extremely cost-effective magical constructs to many small kingdoms and civilian professionals at very low prices.
When many low-level professionals escaped from crises by relying on the affordable magic constructs sold by the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce, the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce became famous and gained the reputation of a conscientious chamber of commerce, and was sought after by many civilian professionals.
Moreover, guided by rumors that came from nowhere, Raphael, who started out selling military magic constructs, gradually gained the title of a wingless angel among the people of the federation.
In order to thank the people of the Federation for their praise, the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce launched a newly developed and latest type of military magic construct - the Angel series, which is sold to all professionals.
Currently, Angel Type I and Type II, as the most cost-effective among affordable configurations, have been widely deployed in the armies of many kingdoms in the Federation and will soon be officially put into use.
