Chapter 598: 192. New Chapter_3
Especially after learning from Selena that Noland Lee possessed the extraordinary trait “Omniscient”, Erica’s regard for him was taken to a higher level.
As a Ninth Circle Silent Witch, Erica was well aware of the power of “Omniscient.” As long as Noland Lee was given enough time to grow, he would surely become a famous Silent Enforcer in the realm of wizards.
Bearing this in mind, as long as Noland Lee’s demands were not excessive, there was room for negotiation, and Erica wouldn’t interfere too much with his decisions.
Noland Lee was also happy with this.
In fact, the current situation was the result of his careful management.
If he hadn’t pre-designed his own persona, accurately established it, and demonstrated the strength to support it, he would never have been able to enjoy success on both sides.
Even Morster, the acting commander of Division Intelligence Unit Two, was all smiles when he met Noland Lee, which was a prime example of how charisma couldn’t be replaced by hard power alone.
“The night before last, I used the scroll you gave me to break the magic protective cover of the small spirit pivot. We were lucky, as the ‘Vitality Surge’ inside the small spirit pivot had hardly been consumed.”
Morster sat on a single sofa, gesturing a few numbers while saying:
“We got about 3.6 cubic [units] of ‘Vitality Surge’. I found a reliable Division Intelligence Unit Three member to make life elixirs. There’s a total production of 36,050. After deducting the basic costs, there are 22,000 life elixirs available for sale. The number of elixirs in this batch is not much. But as long as there’s a sufficient supply of ‘Shield Dissolution Ray’ scrolls, I can guarantee a monthly production of no less than 400,000 elixirs.”
“As for supplying the magic scrolls, I’ll handle it.” Noland Lee pondered:
“Within a week, I will send a magic messenger with the magic scrolls needed for the next month to your mother. At the same time each month afterwards, I will deliver the magic scrolls needed for the upcoming month. As for the transportation of the life elixirs, discuss it with Kalandi. After I sign the soul contract with you, I will inform Kalandi and arrange for you to meet her as soon as possible.”
Morster thought for a moment and then nodded, saying:
“No problem, let’s do it as you say.”
Noland Lee grabbed a pen and paper with the [Mage’s Hand] from the table and began writing the soul contract.
Morster said on the side:
“The magic scroll you gave me caused quite a stir in the Intelligence Department 4.”
“Oh? Is that so?” Noland Lee’s tone was calm, as if he had anticipated this situation long ago.
Morster detected cunning from Noland Lee’s expression. He opened his mouth but eventually chose to remain silent.
However, Noland Lee continued writing the contract and asked:
“Has the plan for the Pillar of Ley Lines to enter Tatis changed?”
“No. The Pillar of Ley Lines still plans to formally enter Tatis in six months. However, to urge the Death Herald Guild to leave Tatis, several wizards from the Pillar of Ley Lines will arrive in Tatis ahead of time.” Morster said.
Noland Lee asked again:
“If the Death Herald Guild leaves, is there still a need for Division Intelligence Unit Two?”
“This involves internal Tatis affairs…” Morster hesitated for a moment and then spread his hands, saying:
“All I can say is, Division Intelligence Unit Two will still exist, and everything remains the same. But in six months, when the Pillar of Ley Lines takes over Tatis’s research tasks, I’ll have to return to the Ulnas Circle. By then, Division Intelligence Unit Two will be handed over to someone else.”
“Half a year… well, it doesn’t matter. A lot can happen in half a year.” Noland Lee marked the word “Half a year” on the contract as the expiration date.
The long-term deal between him and the other party was based on an unstable factor: the war between the underground fungi people and the Greyrock dwarves.
Noland Lee had inquired Erica about the situation of this war.
As she had said, the underground fungi people and the Greyrock dwarves were a combination of old and new enemies.
Both sides’ survival was based on the fertile subterranean soil, which was the root cause of their conflict.
Secondly, after making their first pot of gold by selling healing mushrooms, the underground fungi people planned to increase the production of healing mushrooms.
