Arcane Lord

In addition to the new progress in the mithril mine negotiations, Badigal's visit also revealed news that a high-ranking family in Cormanso had been infiltrated by demons and even absconded.

At present, Cormanso has not officially reported the matter to the Northland Alliance, but has hinted a lot, saying that he will wait until their domestic investigation is clear before reporting to the alliance, and hopes that the countries will not disclose it to the outside world for the time being.

Shado was not surprised by this news, because many cases of Cormanthor elves transforming into demons could be found from the memory of the prophet Puffin, including members of high-ranking families.

He had long known that Puffin's disappearance would have a huge impact, and that the simultaneous absconding of two high-ranking families involved in demons might just be the beginning.

I just don’t know if the Illuminati sent new attempts to take over the affairs of Cormanthor after Puffin disappeared. If so, perhaps they can be arrested again through those demons who have not absconded.

However, Xia Duo was not in a hurry about this matter. Not all demons could make up their minds to escape from the familiar environment. He did capture Puffin, but did not take any further action. There were always lucky demons who remained in their original state.

You can let it go for a while, and wait until this matter can be exposed, then expose it together. If it is just a demon descendant, Xia Duo actually does not have a strong desire to take action.

…

After Badigal left, Shado asked Aiboike about the handover ceremony of the Friendship Tower, and then asked: "Will you return to the Tower of Time next, or will you stay here for a few more days?"

"Although Evereska is good, it is not my home after all. I plan to see my friends again tonight and leave tomorrow morning." Aibo said very calmly.

In this regard, Xia Duo just nodded and was not prepared to interfere too much with the other party. He just reminded the other party, "Have you been to the Chamber of Commerce here in the Tower of Time? If your friend needs the Void Warehouse, you can take him there to go through the procedures. , I decided to give him a 50% discount, but only for five years.”

The 50% discount is still profitable. Currently, the number of users in the Void Warehouse is growing slowly. Xia Duo doesn't want to miss any opportunity to increase users, but he can't discount at will. It would be good for Aibo to maintain his relationship with friends.

Unfortunately, even with a discount, the cost of using the Void Warehouse is very expensive for an individual. In addition, Nether Mage has always valued privacy, so it will be difficult to promote it in Netheril unless it is broken. .

As for this small benefit given by Xia Duo, Aibo was a little happy, "My friend runs a team of adventurers and has been coveting the Void Warehouse for a long time, but it's just that it's too expensive and he can't afford it. Now he It should be a dream come true.”

"That's good! If he can introduce other customers to the Tower of Time Void Warehouse, there will be a rebate for each one he introduces, and the customers he introduces will receive at least a 20% discount depending on the length of purchase."

This was actually the strategy that the Tower of Time Void Warehouse launched to open up the market in the early stages of Evereska's promotion. Later, in order to avoid conflicts with other chambers of commerce operating the Void Warehouse, it stopped voluntarily after acquiring the first batch of customers. .

But it’s okay to release one or two channels occasionally. Maybe this kind of hidden promotion can bring more users!

At least not many adventurer teams have purchased the Void Warehouse of the Tower of Time before. Maybe this time it will open up a whole new market!

Aibo didn't mind becoming a promoter himself and readily agreed, "I will tell my friend about it, but I can't guarantee the final effect."

"It doesn't matter, the policy given to him will be effective for a long time, and the Tower of Time Void Warehouse Chamber of Commerce will not easily lower prices anymore. I believe there will always be people who want to try something new."

Sha Duo didn't put all his hope in Aibo's friends. His friend Sha Duo also had some understanding. He was just an ordinary team of adventurers who went out to investigate, collect, and explore.

Of course, that team is considered a senior team in Netheril, but in a hub city in the North like Everriska, it is indeed very ordinary.

It's just a casual move. It's best if it has results. If it doesn't, you won't be disappointed.

"Then I'll leave first."

"Um."

…

After Ai Burke left, Yunfeng Manor once again calmed down. Just as Xia Duo was about to return to the secret room to continue analyzing the war weapons, he suddenly thought of something and quickly sent a message to Ai Burke——

"When you go back tomorrow, take Clark and the others back with you."

Ai Burke had just left, so the reply was naturally not very slow. He almost gave a positive reply within a few seconds after Sha Duo sent the message.

When Chateau received the reply, he did not put away the communication weapon, but continued to send a message. This time it was to Leiden who was far away in the territory, asking the other party to convene a team to come to Everesca to arrange a new style art exhibition and at the same time inspect the market. Provide reference for specific business projects of Friendship Tower.

In addition, Shado also gave Oripus new instructions to let the other party spread the word and solicit bids for the Friendship Tower. The internal space of the Friendship Tower is so large, Daxia Leader is not planning to occupy it all, but will release most of it through bidding, which is also in line with the original intention of diversification.

After arranging all the recent matters, Xia Duo put away the communication magic weapon and entered the secret room with peace of mind. If he does not complete the analysis of the war magic weapon, his incarnation will not come out.

…

Northland Alliance Headquarters, Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory.

A monitoring center that was recently established suddenly sent out an alarm. The alarm level was very high. In addition to going directly to the three directors of the Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory, it would also be sent to representatives of the five major nations including Netheril.

The relevant personnel who received the alarm naturally knew exactly what the monitoring objects of this newly established monitoring center were. Because they knew what they were doing, they reacted almost immediately, dropped everything on hand and hurried to the monitoring center to ask for details. Condition.

"Ambassador Tirion."

"Ambassador Engil."

…

After the representatives of the great powers greeted each other, they turned their attention to the three directors of the Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory present. Tirion was the first to speak:

"Director Doom, please introduce the current situation."

"yes."

At the same time, humans, Doom certainly knew that this was Ambassador Tirion giving him an opportunity to show off, so he briefly introduced the operating mechanism of the monitoring center and the content of the alarm just now——

"To put it simply, this is the latest research result from the Time-related Magic Research Laboratory, which can monitor the fluctuations of the timeline in an area of ​​more than four thousand miles centered on Everesca.

“This range can already cover all the territory of the Northern Alliance except Cormanthor and the Underdark!

"Just now, the monitoring center detected a timeline fluctuation signal. Because the signal lasted for a short time, it was initially judged to be in the sea west of Irfalan."

Hearing such a reply, Tirion was obviously not satisfied, and he continued to ask: "Can't we accurately locate it?"

"No, the duration is too short. We can only make a preliminary judgment. The error may be nearly 500 miles. Also because the duration is too short, we think this may be a test by the demon."
