Chapter 498: Chapter 468: The Correct Way to Trade with a Mage
With Da Fei’s victorious cheer, the entire deck of the Flying erupted in celebration along with the advisors!
That’s the good thing about NPCs, their back-end system knows for sure whether the Boss was killed or not, so they’d never feign ignorance and say sothing like, "Really? Where? I didn’t see it!"
Chasing down the remaining enemies feels extraordinarily good! Da Fei cald his excited heart, smiling as he approached the Observer and said, "Lord, sorry, I thought it was just an ordinary Magic Eye, but it turned out to be quite special. But no worries, it’s still destined to be caught! The exercise is successfully concluded!"
At this mont, the Observer’s tense expression turned into unconcealable excitent, "Incredible! Truly befitting of a Super Hero, if I rember correctly, this Magic Eye nad Agarlon should be a significant figure beside the Demon King. Killing him is sure to deal a severe blow to the Demon Army’s morale and resolve!"
That’s the expression I wanted, that’s the praise I wanted from him. Da Fei couldn’t help but laugh out loud again! So this Boss was a big shot, no wonder it was so tough to deal with. The loot must be aweso!
The Observer quickly added, "By the way, quickly retrieve the Magic Eye’s body, don’t let the lake water of the Pool of Radiance purify his body. Such a level of Magic Eye body is extrely rare material!"
Damn! Benefits like this too!
Da Fei hastily said, "Thank you for the reminder, Observer Lord!" Then he made a grand gesture, "Move forward! Full speed ahead! Hurry up!"
Heh! Not only am I going to take its material, but I’m also going to absorb its soul! Speaking of which, so far, I’ve only obtained a Sea Soul from Sea Monsters using the Sea Soul Staff, what will this obvious non-Sea Monster be transford into by the Sea Soul Staff? Truly can’t wait to see!
As for now, let’s check out what Little Fei will bring back.
——Mystery Map Book: Task item, records the geographical environnt around the Pool of Radiance and the Hell Army’s garrison distribution.
——Demon Eye: S-grade strategic equipnt, accessory. Halves the effects of mist, illusion, and darkness on vision.
——Grand Marshal dal: A-grade strategic equipnt, accessory. Command Power
500, Morale
1.
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped! This is the loot from this battle!
A map booklet? I was worried about having no clue about the surrounding environnt, is this surrendering maps as a form of defection? This can be set aside for now, the key is this Demon Eye! Damn, it halves the effect of mist and darkness! This is freaking aweso! This is true night vision!
Da Fei, having long been aware of the flaws of the God-level Reconnaissance Technique, deeply understood its shortcomings. When lines of sight are obstructed, like when Anlicia casts fog, everything goes dark, and one can only rely on the radar red dot on the mini-map for positioning. Similarly, at night, visibility greatly reduces, and even the God-level Reconnaissance Technique isn’t much better than what normal people can see. Therefore, navigating at night in misty reefs is incredibly frustrating!
But with this Demon Eye, it becos different; at least under the sa conditions, I can see twice as far as others. This often turns out to be the key for long-range troops to determine victory! Not to ntion, this equipnt also works against illusions, aweso! Very aweso! Wahaha, I’ll gladly accept this!
Then there’s this A-grade accessory, Governor’s dal.
Goddamn! It adds 500 Command Power, that’s directly one Captain Rank! Plus, it adds 1 point Morale, it’s like integrating a C-grade accessory Courage dal! Really lives up to the A-grade rating!
However, Da Fei shook his head and gave a wry smile! Honestly, my Command Power is too high to use up, where do I have so many troops to lead?
In that instant, Da Fei suddenly recalled what Shenlan said when borrowing money earlier, how he’s a human in the Elf Kingdom, unable to recruit troops here! Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this predicant of high but unused Command Power. In the eyes of professional players, my developnt is indeed bizarrely out of place.
Although I currently have over 3000 Flower Demons, 200 Forest Goddesses, and over 130 Banshees, unless undefeated, once defeated where would I recruit more troops? Even if undefeated, if the situation is intense and there’s no chance for resurrection, I can’t sustain it long either?
Lack of long-term viability is indeed a problem! But where do I find the ti? Well, there’s no use in rushing future matters, let’s get past the current hurdle first.
Now it’s rare that the Observer is impressed by my God-level prowess, might as well take this opportunity now that his attitude has improved to ask more questions. It must be said, these Elves are arrogant yet objective, as long as I make achievents, they change their attitude. Let’s start with the Magic Eye.
Da Fei laughed and asked, "Observer Lord, what uses could this Magic Eye’s body have?"
The Observer cald down from the earlier excitent, but his tone was noticeably more relaxed, "What does Lord City Lord think this Magic Eye looks like?"
Like a pile of flying excrent! Da Fei was bewildered, then laughed and said, "Like a hot air balloon!"
The Observer nodded, "Correct, its skin is tough and thick, the top-level material for making hot air balloons, and the two highest craftsmanship forces for hot air balloons are the goblins of Las Vites and the Seven Cities Alliance, which Lord City Lord just dealt with. Trading this material with them would be a wise choice. However, to be honest, I would rather you trade with the goblins than with those mages! Although goblin product quality is very unreliable."
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped! Indeed, during the public beta, experts summarized a rule that dealing with the Mage Academy is no different from dealing with demons, one mustn’t get addicted or dependent. It’s said to be more expensive, the reason unknown. Now that the Observer ntioned it, the friendliness must have gone up, otherwise, such words wouldn’t be spoken to a stranger, right? Okay, I’ll listen to the NPC’s view on this!
Da Fei promptly saluted and said, "I indeed admire those mages’ cutting-edge products, but I wonder what downsides there are in trading with them? I sincerely ask for your guidance!"
The Observer chuckled, then asked the group of advisors around Da Fei, "Do you know why?"
The group of advisors looked puzzled, only the economic advisor coughed lightly and replied, "I believe, the mages’ items are extrely expensive, and besides, the cost-performance ratio is not very high."
The Observer shook his head, speaking solemnly, "That’s just a surface reason, albeit a very important one, but the more crucial reason is— Lord City Lord, what sets trading with the mages apart from trading with others?"
Could you stop beating around the bush? Da Fei coughed lightly and said, "They deliver using Space Gates, very cool!"
The Observer shook his head.
Da Fei had no choice but to continue, "They use a Demon Light Scroll as a contract!"
The Observer nodded, his expression serious, "Exactly! That contract scroll is used to collect clients’ Power of Prayer. As for the Power of Prayer, it relates to too complex and mysterious domains, of which I know little, this topic ends here!"
——System Prompt: You have obtained information on the "Power of Prayer!"
Da Fei was suddenly stunned! Power of Prayer? Indeed, the Mage Academy’s level 5 soldiers were Lamp Gods, said to be the third-fastest flying troop after Wind Elents and Phoenixes, commonly known as Fat Wind! The building to produce these troops is called the Prayer Altar! Moreover, on top of the Prayer Altar, an additional building called Prayer Treasury can be added, supposedly providing gold coins and resources for the city daily!
Could this be another pitfall like the devil’s luck coin? Possibly! However, the Angel Brother of the Nether Sea ntioned that I have God-level Luck Skill, which gives
the ability to counter Heavenly Destiny. Can this Power of Prayer really backfire on ? If it can, what’s the point of investing so much in Sain as a channel?
Da Fei imdiately said, "Thank you, Sir, for the guidance. Then, how should I interact with the mages?"
The Observer responded seriously, "Of course, through conventional trade. Conventional trade ans having them voluntarily buy your stuff, like this Magic Eye material. This puts you in control, so you don’t have to sign such a Prayer Contract. In short, this topic ends here; once ashore, no one should ntion it before the mages, best to forget it now."
The advisors hurriedly said, "Yes, following your instruction, we’ve forgotten what was just discussed."
It seems everyone holds the Mage Academy in reverential awe!
I get it! Being desireless makes one indomitable, as long as I don’t seek them, they’ll co to seek
instead. Of course, provided I have good goods.
While speaking, the Flying had arrived at the Demon Eye’s sinking site. From a distance, it looked like a large piece of plastic cloth floating on the lake.
Da Fei was delighted, "Great, it seems the body hasn’t been corroded by the lake water, uh, purified!" Then he grandly waved, "Quickly pull it in with a rope!"
While looking at this pitch-black lake water, the Observer solemnly said, "This also indicates that the lake water on our side is seriously polluted. Once the water loses its purification ability, it no longer poses a threat to demons, by then they could deploy so water-combat-type demons to attack."
Da Fei hurriedly said, "No need to worry, Lord, I’ll soon show you my new troop type, giant sli monsters, which are very effective at purifying the lake. The more serious the Demon Race’s pollution, the more they produce; there are already 10 giant sli monsters. As for deploying water-combat demons, there’s nothing to worry about, my Leviathan can be hatched at any ti, no matter how many they co, as many will perish! The situation is entirely under my control!"
The Observer’s expression relaxed, but he shook his head, "The death of this Observer might introduce variables, claiming control over the situation is premature. In short, I did see many sli monsters floating in the water when boarding earlier indeed, which does require a visit upon return."
Everyone agreed, "The Lord has a point!"
And just at that mont, a thick dark red smoke rose from the massive balloon, entering Selvia’s Sea Soul Staff!
——System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Selvia used the Sea Soul Staff to absorb the soul of Demon Eye Watcher Agarlon.
Oh yeah! This balloon is a treasure trove! Then let
see your fortune! Wahahaha!
