Chapter 346 Funding

"I heard the people at the port report to me that you want to go to Northrend in the north?"

Kel'Thuzad stroked the cat and asked Richard, "Are you interested there as well?"

Richard nodded, "Of course, people are always curious about the unknown world, and I am no exception."

"Even if it's a barren land?"

"Yes."

Kel'Thuzad smiled and continued to ask Richard, "You are an outstanding mage, an outstanding warrior, a famous businessman, a guest of honor in various kingdoms, the lord of Kozan Island... Let me guess who you are now?"

Richard used ice magic to make a wooden stool for him to sit on. Kel'Thuzad didn't let Richard wait long before he gave his answer.

"I think you are a businessman."

Richard did not say anything, but at this time, silence was tacit agreement. Kel'Thuzad continued, "Although I don't know what you want from me, your presence here means that I can reach Northrend safely."

"You are such a smart man." Richard conjured up a table with a bag of dried meat on it. He chewed a bit and continued, "You guessed right. I am here to see you as a businessman. Merchants pursue profits. In a world of location, everything is fresh and in short supply. For our transaction, I will be responsible for sending you to Northrend safely. You will provide me with a variety of goods there, and we will trade regularly."

Kel'Thuzad stopped playing cat-playing: "You have many elite soldiers under your command, why do you need me?"

Richard sat upright: "Because Northrend is extremely dangerous, I have sent my people to Northrend, But none of them came back alive. But you are different. The dangers of Northrend are known to everyone in the entire eastern continent. You are a senior executive of Dalaran and know the dangers there better. Since you dare to go there, you must be fully prepared. Therefore, I came to you. I have a greater chance of getting the goods from you."

Kel'Thuzad lowered his eyes: "Aren't you afraid that I won't help you collect the goods when I get there?"

Richard shrugged: "Business investment has always been risky."

Kel'Thuzad closed his eyes and continued to touch the cat. He didn't believe Richard's words. Richard must have other purposes, but he couldn't guess what they were. However, after thinking about it, Kel'Thuzad did not find any disadvantages in this deal. If he relied on himself, it would be difficult to reach Northrend despite all the difficulties. After arriving in Northrend, he could deal with the rest. After all, no one knew what would happen there.

"Okay, I promise you."

"Then happy cooperation!"

Richard stretched out his hand and Kel'Thuzad shook it. Kel'Thuzad's hand was warm.

"You can rest for a night and then go to the port over there. I have talked to the people in charge of shipping. They will prepare a luxury cruise ship for you to take you to Northrend. There are very rich supplies on the ship and you can take them at will."

"Thank you."

Richard smiled twice and left.

Kel'Thuzad looked at the table and the dried meat left by Richard, and then looked at the burnt wolf next to him. Kel'Thuzad still chose the dried meat.

"Come on, you must be hungry too."

Kel'Thuzad handed a piece of dried meat to Mr. Bigglesworth's mouth, and Bigglesworth turned his head away. Kel'Thuzad smiled and shook his head: "If you don't eat, I will! We must fill our stomachs before leaving! After eating, we will have a good sleep and welcome the rising sun tomorrow morning!"

Richard released the crows after leaving the plain. The Eye of N'Zoth covered by Freya's energy was placed on the back of Kel'Thuzad's hand by Richard when they shook hands just now. The Eye of N'Zoth can detect 360 degrees without blind spots, and it only needs a little adjustment. When Vashj sees the crows, she will immediately start debugging.

Richard looked at the hand he just shook with Kel'Thuzad, and recalled the feeling just now. There are very few people in Northrend who can live in the flesh. Moreover, Kel'Thuzad went directly to find those undead creatures. When they meet again next time, Richard will probably only see a skeleton. In the memory of the previous life, there is a wishing well in Dalaran, which is full of coins engraved with wishes. There was once a wish that touched Richard, and that wish was really Kel'Thuzad's. The coin was engraved with "I just want a warm hug."

Richard lowered his hands, and the warm feeling just now was already remembered in his mind. Now it was time to meet the third person here.

"Come out. Don't hide."

Richard turned around and looked at the empty flat bottom. A shadow appeared, and a succubus appeared there.

Richard recognized the succubus at once: "Long time no see, Yizhi."

"Long time no see, Richard." The succubus came over, bowed slightly and said to Richard, "It's really difficult to meet you! I've been waiting for several years!"

Richard shrugged: "Missed me, what about me?"

Yizhi blushed, and Richard laughed: "Okay, no more jokes, you are still the same as before."

All the expressions on Richard's face disappeared, and he asked very seriously: "You appear here, do you want to say something to me? Or do you want to get rid of me?"

Yizhi took two steps forward and said: "The former. I hope you can help me fulfill my wish."

"What is your wish?"

"Liberate the succubus race. They never treat us as human beings, ordering us around and even using us as cannon fodder. I don't want to live like this, so I want to resist. You are the only creature I know who can compete with them."

"Tsk, I thought old friendship would last forever! So what conditions are you going to offer me?"

Iori looked directly at Richard and said, "Intelligence. Intelligence that you have never known. In addition, I will provide you with one for free."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

Iori looked around and Richard said, "There is no one around, I'm sure."

Iori nodded and continued, "This intelligence is about Vashj."

Richard suddenly became interested and listened to Iori's words attentively.

"Vashj has demonic energy in her body."

Richard frowned, "Are you sure?"

Iori nodded, "I've been with demons for years, I won't make a mistake. She does have demonic energy, but the amount is very small."

Richard suddenly thought of where Vashj could be exposed to demonic energy, and green fire suddenly appeared on his fingertips, "Is this what you are talking about?"

Yi Zhi took two steps back: "Yes, that's it, why do you have it too?"
