Chapter 40: Deal

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Antlers Verder and Valia·Language of Nature sat together, while Reipa and Olivia Behemoth sat opposite them.

The Language of Nature family was once one of the founder families of the association. Although it had declined, it still had some power.

Guild Master Antlers had become a branch guild master who had worked his way up through experience. He had relied on his background a little, but his strength was enough to guard the city branch. After all, there was no need for him to fight. It was fine as long as he knew how to manage.

The Behemoth siblings came to ask for help.

As such, Antlers dragged Valia along and let her make the decision. Even if the Language of Nature family had declined, they still had many official Magis.

It was a deal, after all.

“How much are you willing to pay?”

The Behemoth siblings looked at each other. The elder brother, Reipa, would lead the transaction.

“Ten percent of the Fiend Salt Swamp’s gains.”

Antlers frowned.

“It’s a little too little.”

Reipa spoke frankly, “Guild Master Antlers, you can’t say that. Let me calculate it for you. The gains from the Fiend Salt Swamp are calculated daily. It consists of the entrance fee to gain map information, monster materials, official Magi-level monster resources, and crystallized rotten wood.”

“Not only do the self-taught wizards in Koster go there, but most of the self-taught wizards within a radius of 300 kilometers would choose to go to the salt swamp. The traffic is about 3,000 people. The members of the White Tower and the Marine Academy, whether it’s for training or completing missions, would usually do so in the salt swamp as well.”

“After I took over the Evening Bell Church’s share, I didn’t send any apprentices to harvest materials, so my total share increased from 35% to 50%. The rest is for the Tower and the Academy. With this, the daily profit of the salt swamp can reach about 50,000 magic stones. 10% of it is 2500 magic stones per day, which is 75000 magic stones per month. This is not a small number.”

Reipa was right.

However, one had to note some things. The daily profit couldn’t possibly be so stable every day. Besides, official Magi-level monsters did not appear every day. Usually, only one would only be born in a month, and occasionally two would appear.

For materials of this level, it was relatively easy to sell the entire corpse for 10,000 magic stones.

Crystallized rotten wood was a tree resource that could only be found in places like the magic energy salt swamps. For the sake of sustainable development, it could not be harvested every day.

Therefore, Reipa was talking about the highest profit.

In reality, the actual gains might need to be reduced by 20,000 to 30,000 magic stones. It would be more stable if he were to pay around 40,000 magic stones a month.

If they could earn 750,000 magic stones a month from the Fiend Salt Swamp alone, it was obvious how rich the three Magus forces were after so many years.

It was no wonder that the North Sea Behemoth family took this opportunity to intervene.

In the long run, Reipa’s branch of the Behemoth family would develop sooner or later.

Antlers Faner and Valia looked at each other.

Hearing this calculation, they were tempted.

After all, it was only sending official Magi to guard the place. Battles were few, and if there were any, it was only against the official Magi-level fiends born from the surface of the salt swamp.

Now, Reipa was willing to pay such a huge price to pull the Language of Nature family into the same boat by tempting them with profits. When he was developed, it would be a different scene.

Guild Master Antlers thought for a moment.

“Magi Reipa, I’ll contact the Language of Nature family about this. I’ll give you a reply in three days.”

“Alright, then I wish us a happy cooperation.”

Antlers nodded. Although he said he would consider it for three days, everyone knew that the opportunity to split the cake was rare.

The success rate of the deal was ninety-nine percent.

Varya would watch and be a witness. She would write a letter with Antlers and send it to the Forest of Elves where the family was.

When Lin Suo arrived, he happened to see Antlers sending Reipa and his sister off with a smile. Lin Suo knew the two of them, but they did not know him.

He was a little curious, but he didn’t interfere.

Only after he became an official Magi and obtained the qualifications to join the Magi Union would he be considered to have truly gained a firm foothold.

“Lia.”

“Rhein!” Valia welcomed him happily.

“Why are you here? Is there something you want to talk to me about?”

Lin Suo paused before saying casually, “You’re smart.”

Seeing the two of them so intimate, Antlers snorted coldly and felt indignant.

“Rhein, you’re just in time. I need your help with the Luna Royal Family’s matters.”

“Alright.”

He followed the two of them upstairs.

As Lin Suo walked, he asked questions about the deep-sea polluted creatures, and he soon received an answer.

The seal of the ancient Gods’ remains, the source of pollution, and so on.

Moreover, the curse of Eternal Drown on the deep-sea polluted creatures was one that could not be removed. Even the Magis above stage nine could not do anything about it.

This surprised him.

He couldn’t help but sneer in his heart. As expected, those forces had bad intentions and were sending the self-taught wizards to their deaths.

The matter regarding purification was true though.

The danger of Eternal Drown was that it infected through flesh. Once one came into contact with a polluted creature’s flesh, one would definitely be inflicted by the curse!

Where there was a gain, there must a loss.

Since the curse was so powerful, the deep-sea polluted creatures were extremely weak. Any spell could kill them. Purification spells could then be used to dispel the curse seeds buried in their flesh.

No wonder the White Tower and the Marine Academy would use the polluted creatures to drive the people of the Evening Bell Church away. It was like a mop that had feces, or someone who had tuberculosis. Who would want to come into contact with it?

Lin Suo could not help but ask as they went up another floor.

“Can apprentice-level purification spells also purify the seed of the Eternal Drown curse?”

“It’s possible. However, it’s slow. It can be considered a flaw of this curse. It is endowed with unparalleled infectious and incurable characteristics, so it must be much weaker in other aspects. The world won’t allow a perfect curse to exist. ”

The beauty of flaws?

Lin Suo’s imagination ran wild. Could he use the power of synthesis to cheat and create something perfect?

“We’re here.”

While he was thinking, Guild Master Antlers brought him to the same room on the fifth floor and impatiently took out an exquisite box.

The box was engraved with many Ancient Elvish words.

This time, it was not a secret language passed down by word of mouth, but slang from a certain elven region!

Lin Suo could not help but be speechless. Elves also had slang? Wow…

He could indeed understand it. After all, his identity as a language guru was not just for show.

“This box…”

Lin Suo put on his gloves and observed the box carefully. Soon, he put down the box and sighed, “It really is something from the Luna Royal Family.”

Guild Master Antlers revealed a look of joy.

“Mr. Rhein, can you understand?”

Lin Suo nodded then shook his head.

“I have an idea, but I still need to study them to understand them completely.”

“Oh? What do you mean?”

“If I’m not wrong, this should be something from the Moon God Island. According to the Luna Holy Scripture, the Moon God Island is the origin of the Moon God Elves. I’m afraid this is the only place in the world where we can find the Moon Stone. Where did you get this?”

Antlers was deep in thought and did not seem to hear him.

Valia quickly replied, “We bought it from a Moon Elf.”

The Elves had experienced the rule of more than ten royal families. Because of the different powers they believed in, the meta-magic bloodlines in their bodies constantly changed. There were Moon Elves, Wood Elves, Dust Elves, Blood Elves, and many other species.
