Chapter 963: 299. Dragon Clan Warning?_3
He responded to Lonco with a shifty attitude, intending to sound greedy for gold coins, and worked to portray himself in the other’s mind as a sly rchant who still had so Magic Scrolls but wanted to take the opportunity to raise the price.
After so cat-and-mouse haggling, Noland Lee successfully raised the selling price of each Magic Scroll from the initial 150 million gold coins to 300 million.
Lonco bought four Magic Scrolls in one go.
He kept one for himself.
The remaining three he would hand over to the Pure Light Court for them to provide samples for research into This Magic Spell.
In addition, the Pure Light Court also had to ensure victory for Lonco in the next seven wizard duels.
...
Out of the 1.2 billion gold coins for the Magic Scrolls, only the one for Lonco was paid for by himself, while the remaining three were funded by the Pure Light Court.
These details were written into the Magic Contract signed between Lonco and the Pure Light Court.
Noland Lee was well aware of this.
After pondering for a mont, he did not imdiately send the Magic Scrolls to Lonco.
Using the excuse of “needing to prepare enchantnt materials,” he postponed the delivery of the Magic Scrolls until before tomorrow’s duel began.
Only in this way could he make Lonco and the Pure Light Court believe that Noland Lee had to forcibly cast spells, resorting to Wild Magic on the spot.
As expected, Lonco guessed this was the case.
He sent Noland Lee a letter, feigning concern for Noland’s health, urging him not to aggravate the Psychic Trauma caused by Magic backlash.
Noland Lee, looking at the Letter Paper, smiled without uttering a word.
Thus far, he had successfully gained the upper hand in the first round of battle with the Pomida Family and the Pure Light Court.
However, Noland quickly reined in his smile and fell into contemplation.
When considering issues, he preferred to start from a pessimistic perspective.
In extre circumstances, should the Pure Light Court beco desperate, they would definitely lash out and find an excuse to forcefully invade Island 33.
By then, with the island’s Magical Facilities, it was estimated that they could keep the Light Wizards at bay.
But with a Sub-Dinsional Plane, everything would change.
All Noland needed to do was close the entrances to the Sub-Dinsional Plane to block the Light Wizards outside.
Unless they were willing to invest a substantial amount of Mana to forcibly break through the Boundary of the Sub-Dinsional Plane, they would have no way to enter it.
After all, it’s only with a chunk of Sub-Dinsional Plane that one can truly feel at ease, Noland mused lightly shaking his head.
Approaching evening, he called for Nolin and Nicolette to return to Ground Level.
The three of them enjoyed the Setting sun for a mont in the Living Room with floor-to-ceiling windows and welcod the sumptuous Dinner prepared by Denise Green.
After a al that left them full and satisfied, Nolin joined Nicolette to play, Denise retreated to ditate, and Noland conducted energy-shaping experints Underground.
The Pitcher, modified by Nolin, perford much better than last ti.
The energy-shaping sche linked to it reduced its failure rate from a disastrous 75% to 35%.
The Magic product from a successful energy-shaping was still the thunder and lightning spell known as ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’.
Noland depleted so Energy Points, attempting the shaping nurous tis and successfully casting the ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’ on multiple occasions.
The effects of This Magic Spell shook Noland to the core.
The key to ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’ lies in the words “fixed point” and “thunderstorm.”
“Fixed point” ans that Noland could summon a “thunderstorm” at any point within his casting range.
And “thunderstorm” is short for “spherical lightning,” resembling intensely expanding lightning spheres.
It is a form of Wild Magic with both “Breaking Law” and “lethal” effects.
The thunderstorm instantly clears all other energies in the blast area, achieving a “neutralizing” effect.
Any Spells cast at that location are disrupted by the raging Thunder and Lightning Energy.
Noland conducted a test.
He targeted a flying fireball, shot the ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’, and the fireball was instantly crushed by the Thunder and Lightning Energy, turning from a blazing orb into a spherical lightning mixed with faint flas.
After neutralizing the fireball, spherical lightning exploded outward, creating a thunderous explosion.
First ca “neutralization,” then the “thunderstorm.” When combined, they ford the ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’.
Theoretically, only Spells that relied on Thunder and Lightning Energy might survive an attack from the ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’.
“The ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’ is indeed strong, but it’s a bit lacking as a defensive thod. I prefer passive protection like the ‘Magic Shield’ over active ones like the ‘fixed point thunderstorm technique’,” Noland said with a smile, looking at the scorched Floor:
“However, having such a powerful active defensive asure is always better than being empty-handed. After all, my combat strength has significantly increased because of this spell,” he continued.
“Sir?”
Nolin poked half her head through the Ceiling opening:
She looked around and saw the aftermath of lightning devastation:
“Are you testing Magic, Sir? I thought sothing had happened to you…”
“Oh, sorry, Nolin, for making you worry.” Noland beckoned her over:
“You’ve co at the right ti. Help clean up the scene, then we can work on the improvent of the Pitcher’s sche.”
“Of course, Sir.” Nolin activated the Flight Spell on her Magic Ring and descended to the floor like a black Satin Ribbon.
By this ti, Nicolette had already returned to her Bedroom to rest.
Nolin was accustod to working in the quiet of the night.
She harbored no resistance to pulling an all-nighter with Noland.
In fact, she admired Noland’s dedication to his goals, often working tirelessly to achieve them.
The two of them worked until past Midnight, pinpointing a new improvent sche.
As Noland needed to perform Deconstruction in the Subsea Region during the day, he left first to rest in the Bedroom.
As usual, he would inspect the House with “Mind View” before sleep.
When he looked towards Nicolette’s Bedroom Balcony, a figure caught his Magic Vision.
Noland’s eyebrows lifted as he heard the Assassin Angel’s androgynous and emotionless voice:
“Let’s talk.”
Let’s talk…
What did the Assassin Angel want to discuss?
Noland mumbled in his mind.
