In the ancient era, in the Land of Origin,
Faer took on the form of a human and casually walked into one of the human race’s castles.
His figure passed through crowds of people, eventually stopping at the entrance of a mage tower.
In the next mont, his body flashed and he entered the mage tower.
"You’ve co, Faer."
The young girl set down a piece of mithril and slowly looked up, gazing at the suddenly appearing Faer. She didn’t seem surprised by his sudden appearance.
Faer nodded and then, using the elents, began to draw part of the array he had found on the islands in the void.
"It’s been a while. I hope you can help with sothing."
"I found so arrays, but I don’t understand their principles."
The young girl nodded and then turned her gaze toward the array fragnts floating in the void.
After a few minutes, she furrowed her brow and asked:
"Could you not show the rest of the array?"
Upon hearing this, Faer’s face betrayed a bit of awkwardness. In fact, the array he had obtained from the ruins wasn’t complete.
"Ah, well... the array I obtained isn’t complete, so..."
"Since that’s the case, I can only help as much as I can. But I’m only familiar with the life domain part, the rest is beyond my help."
The young girl said, then picked up a mithril-made dissector from the workbench and began to closely observe the array’s patterns.
At the sa ti, divine power fluctuations of Demigod Rank radiated from her body.
Faer, sensing the aura from the young girl, was montarily stunned.
He never imagined that his old friend had already reached Demigod Rank.
It seed that he, Faer, wasn’t the only genius in this world.
As Faer’s thoughts wandered, the young girl slowly put down her tools and looked up at him.
"Old friend, before I give you my conclusion, don’t you think we should talk about compensation?"
Faer was taken aback, then asked in confusion:
"Isn’t it unnecessary for us to discuss compensation? After all, we’re friends."
The young girl rolled her eyes at him and responded with a teasing tone:
"Faer, as the emperor of the elental race, you wouldn’t want to freeload, would you?"
"If that’s the case, perhaps it’s ti to end our friendship."
Faer, hearing this, helplessly raised his hands.
"Don’t be mad. I was just joking. Speak your price. You know that an exchange is my principle."
"Fine, 100 million gold coins."
"Mm... you really are asking for a lot!"
Faer said this, but he still took out a bag from his backpack to hold the gold coins.
"Here’s the gold coins, now you can tell what you found!"
The young girl took the bag of gold coins and placed it directly in a drawer beside her. She combed her hair and then raised a finger.
"I have good news and bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?"
"Whatever you prefer. After all, the gold coins are already yours."
"Faer, you’re as boring as always!"
The young girl shrugged and, without any further teasing, her expression grew serious.
"First, the good news is that this incomplete array does indeed contain a large number of life domain runes. Though they are very subtle, they make up more than seventy percent."
Upon hearing this, Faer didn’t show excitent but instead furrowed his brow and asked solemnly:
"So what’s the bad news?"
"Are these runes rare?"
The young girl chuckled softly and then shook her finger, signaling that Faer was wrong.
"To be precise, the runes themselves are not rare. What’s rare are the materials needed to construct the runes."
"Normally speaking, you can probably only find these materials in the hidden kingdom between the islands. Other than that, there are no materials in this world that can synthesize these runes."
"But... I’ve already been to the island where the hidden kingdom is, and there was nothing left there."
"Is that so?"
A hint of lancholy flashed across the young girl’s face, and Faer, still not willing to give up, continued to ask:
"So are there any alternative materials? I want to hear about unusual cases."
"Unusual cases, indeed, exist. The materials you need are only available here, with ."
"So the bad news is, Faer, you’re probably going to spend a lot of money on this!"
Faer, upon hearing this, didn’t show a painful expression. Instead, he sighed in relief.
"As long as I can obtain these materials, the price is negotiable."
"Alright, then. First, bring 100 trillion gold coins. These plants with ’divine’ attributes are extrely difficult to cultivate!"
One hundred trillion... gold coins??
Even Faer, as the emperor of the elental race, was taken aback by this price.
In this era, gold coins still held great value. With Faer’s strength, even if he cleared an underground labyrinth at his current matching level, the loot he obtained would only be worth around 100 million gold coins.
So, if he wanted to gather enough gold coins through clearing underground labyrinths, he would need to clear at least a million labyrinths!
Of course, as the emperor of the elental race, Faer wasn’t incapable of paying such a large amount of gold coins.
But even for the entire elental race, 100 trillion gold coins was an astronomical sum.
At that mont, the young girl suddenly winked at him, her tone carrying a playful edge.
"Well, we are friends, and since you’ve been to the hidden kingdom, I can give you a discount."
"Let think... I’ll only charge you 1 gold coin!"
1 gold coin??
Faer was stunned once more. He was unable to figure out the young girl’s true intentions.
On the other hand, the young girl continued:
"Of course, besides the 1 gold coin, I also need you to do sothing for ."
As she spoke, she took out a very delicate box from her backpack space.
"Since you’ve already been to the hidden kingdom, I’m asking you to place these items in the ruins of the hidden kingdom."
"And also, write my na."
After saying that, the young girl retrieved a pile of oddly shaped fruits from a nearby shelf.
"By the way, these are gifts I wanted to give them. Though they may never receive them, it’s still my heartfelt gesture, and my way of showing gratitude."
"Please, help take these with you!"
"By the way, here’s my na tag—Laeve."
