Selina clenched her hands on the table:
"I hope to eliminate the threat of the Kraken and allow the Suman Islands to embrace peace. I need all the knowledge and intelligence related to this."
Li Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Well, noble needs. Why do you care so much about the peace and tranquility of the Suman Islands?"
"Alas, this has something to do with my family..."
Selena calmly stated the reason.
Many times, Li Nuo was asking questions knowingly.
This is also the case now.
He has found the answer from the results of deconstructing Selena.
Selena has a trait:
"Peace Manager".
She prefers to govern a peaceful region rather than a place like the Suman Islands, which is constantly harassed by terrible sails.
So, can she apply to Hotams to go to a peaceful place and serve as the manager of the local magical institution?
The answer is, no.
The Shenhai Branch has one principal and three vice-presidents.
These four people are one family, all from the Pomida family behind Selena.
The Pomida family has a total of seven family heirs and no family branches.
Selena ranks fourth and is the fourth in line to succeed.
Her eldest brother, Ronco Pomida, is one of the vice-presidents of the Deep Sea Branch, responsible for managing routes, detecting fog thresholds, and resisting sea monsters.
The deep-sea branch support fleet that Li Nuo saw a few days ago was sent by Longke Pomida.
Selina's second brother, Hedo Pomida, is also the deputy dean. He is responsible for deciphering the Dreadsail magic book, researching deep-sea spells, and managing the daily academic affairs of the college.
Selina's father, Minwak Pomida, is the principal. He has been in Star City, the capital of Unas Ring, for a long time and is responsible for training deep sea combat wizards for Hotams Academy.
A family of four, neatly organized, with clear division of labor.
The father, eldest son, second son, and eldest daughter are the first to fourth heirs of the family respectively.
The fifth to seventh heirs, the first two serve as lecturers in the Deep Sea Branch, and the last one is a member-level professor of the Wu Chief Council and usually stays in the Unas Ring.
In this case, Selina's only option is to manage the wizarding forces in the Suman Islands, which requires her to cooperate with her father and eldest brother to clean up the Kraken.
Is the Deep Sea Branch’s combat capability strong?
It's pretty ok.
Hotams of the Unas Ring can send combat wizards to the Suman Islands to support the Deep Sea Branch through the portal at any time.
But the problem is that their understanding of characters and forces such as the Kraken and the Terrorsail Wizard is not enough to prompt them to launch a general attack on the Kraken.
Li Nuo used deconstruction to look at Selena's recent memories.
Selina never mentioned Li Nuo's existence to outsiders or relatives.
Selena put forward her own needs at this time, and it was her own wish, not the result of her discussion with others.
It can be seen from this that Selena's need to reveal is not only due to her own responsibilities, but also due to her own characteristics "peace manager".
——Of course, here, Li Nuo understands the word "characteristic" as "the root trait of personality", which is the "nature" in the saying "nature is hard to change". It is the inner drive that drives a person to do something.
After listening to Selina's explanation of why she purchased knowledge, the study room was silent for a few seconds before Li Nuo said:
"Selena, you can't afford the price of this information."
"Can't afford it..." Selena was a little absent-minded.
"Yes, you can't afford it. Not only you, but your father can't afford it either." Li Nuo said calmly:
“The entanglement between the Deep Sea Branch and the Kraken can be traced back hundreds of years.
"You think the Deep Sea Branch is facing a group of Kraken refugees or degenerate human wizards who are running around, stealing, robbing, poisoning and extorting.
"But in fact, the Kraken are a group of magical attainments and heritage, no less than the ancient creatures of the Deep Sea Branch. The Terror Sail Wizards are just a group of puppets raised by the Kraken.
"What's more, the "Tide Surge" meditation method you are practicing now comes from the group of ancient sea monsters that you drove into the ocean from the Suman Islands. "
Li Nuo's words put Selina into a trance.
All this time, the Dreadsail Wizard had appeared to her as a criminal.
The ones that appear most frequently here in the Suman Islands are undercurrent spies.
Selina actually didn't know much about the sirens causing trouble at sea, and thought they were similar to undercurrent spies.
The most powerful siren she knew was just a high-level undertide spy, whose strength was comparable to that of a six-ring battle wizard.
These phenomena were superimposed together, and in Selina's eyes, they formed a weak image of the Dreadsail Wizard and the Dreadsail Pirate Nation behind him.
Terror sail can only harass the Suman Islands by stealing, robbing, poisoning and other means.
But is this really the case?
Obviously not.
Selina only saw a small part of the Dreadsail.
Due to the fact that her daily job is to manage the wizarding forces, she can only see the contents of the wizarding forces affected by the Dread Sails.
Only those who are directly responsible for the battle, like Selina's father and eldest brother, can rely on their own experience to deduce the specific relationship between the Dreadsail Wizard and the Siren.
Based on the deconstruction results of the past few days, Li Nuo had already made some assumptions in his mind.
He was just waiting to collect more information to fully understand the details of the Kraken.
According to Li Nuo:
A kingdom of sea monsters that can use legendary deep sea monsters to deal with pirates. No matter how weak its combat strength is, it can still pull out dozens or twenty powerful legendary deep sea monsters at any time.
This kind of frontal combat strength is enough to crush small and medium-sized magic kingdoms. It is not impossible to forcibly destroy part of the deep sea branch.
Therefore, the Deep Sea Branch should not even think about mobilizing an army of deep sea combat wizards to fight on the Kraken's territory.
Maybe that's the lair of the legendary deep sea monster.
There is still a chance that the wizard army will be wiped out by others taking advantage of their home field.
The above contents were deduced by Li Nuo based on his own analysis results when he was making magic props in the past few days.
There will definitely be mistakes, but Li Nuo doesn't care too much. There will be opportunities to correct them in the future.
Li Nuo snapped his fingers, causing Selena to be slightly alert:
"Okay, Selina. Your father and elder brother will be responsible for how to deal with the Dreadsail Wizard and the Kraken, so don't make it more troublesome for yourself. Now, write a letter to Rappe Chanal Okay. You can tell me when the time for secret conversation is agreed upon."
Selena came back to her senses, nodded in response, and then asked:
"Then can I buy the magical knowledge of the Dreadsail Wizard from you? If you have it..."
"Are you buying this knowledge for your own use, or are you sharing it with your second brother?" Li Nuo asked.
Selena thought for a while:
"If you allow me, I would like to share it with my second brother."
Li Nuo stood up and shook his head at the other party:
"Then my answer is, not at the moment."
"Not at the moment?" Selina asked.
"Well, it's not possible at the moment, but it may be possible in the future." Li Nuo said.
He raised his hand and nodded his head:
"This part of the content is in the soul contract between the two of us, specifically in Article 6, Articles 11 to 20. You can look at it again. The same sentence, Selina. All communication between us is based on absolute On top of the privacy and safety. Except for the extraordinary things I deliberately revealed to outsiders, any top secret information leaked by either of us in private will be punished by the soul contract.
"I'm very happy that after receiving the ten-level training content of "Tidal Surge", you are still willing to abide by the soul contract between us and keep the secret from your family. Hope you keep it up. Just as I promised when I signed the soul contract, you endorse all my legal actions and I will create an orderly Suman Islands for you. "
Li Nuo stopped talking and did not reveal what Selena's second brother did when Selena was forced to commit herself to Dicra Fagan in exchange for the meditation method.
Selina used marriage as a bargaining chip to exchange the ins and outs and hidden secrets of the meditation method with Dikla Fagan. Li Nuo had already known it through deconstruction.
He also knew very well what role Selena's second brother played in it.
Otherwise, Li Nuo would not have specifically mentioned that "his consent must be obtained before the content of the meditation method can be taught to Selena."
In a sense, asking Selena to strictly abide by the content of the meditation method and not teach it to her second brother is a loyalty test set by Li Nuo for her.
These things are too heavy to talk about, so Li Nuo will naturally not mention them in front of Selena and will only hide them in his heart.
He said goodbye to Selina and returned to his stone house in the Inner Circle, spending time with Dinas, petting the cat, and patiently waiting for his secret conversation with Lape Chanel.
…
…
The same day at 7pm.
It's still Selena's study room with many miniature oceans.
This time, a new guest was welcomed here.
Rappe Chanal.
The current head of the Chanal family, the first heir, and the head of the local Chanal family in the Suman Islands.
The Chanal family specializes in the field of trade. It owns countless ocean-going fleets and caravans, and its business is widely distributed in the Cahir Continent, the Suman Islands, the Unas Ring, and the magical countries that have good relations with the Unas Ring. .
Lape Chanal seems to be just the manager here in the Suman Islands.
But in fact, relying on the trade hub status of the Suman Islands, he indirectly controls cross-regional trade in Cahir Continent, Unas Ring and other places.
If the trade route here in the Suman Islands is forced to close due to rampant pirates, then there is no doubt that the Chanal family will suffer the greatest loss.
It not only lost goods, merchant ships, and personnel, but also lost trade profits. It was a bloody loss.
As soon as Rappe Chanal heard that Selena wanted to talk to him secretly about dealing with pirates, he accepted the other party's invitation without saying a word and came to attend the appointment.
He thought this was a one-on-one communication with Selina, but he was surprised and confused to find that there was also a law enforcement wizard wearing a half metal mask at the scene.
And he is also a first-level law enforcement wizard...
Lape Chanal, this middle-aged wizard with dark brown slicked back hair and a fine beard, stared at the law enforcement wizard in front of him and sized it up, then tentatively revealed a name in his baritone voice. :
"Leno Jarvis?"
Li Nuo nodded calmly and said:
"Yes, Mr. Charnell, you did not admit the wrong person. I am indeed Lenno Jarvis who had agreed to meet you but was unable to get his wish due to some reasons."
Rappe Chanal wrinkled her eyebrows the same color as her hair and looked at Selena sitting on the other side of the round table:
"I thought it was a secret exchange..."
Selena smiled at him and said:
"Channel, this communication is absolutely confidential. Do you remember what I mentioned to you about cleaning up the undercurrent of spies within the Chanal family? Jarvis can complete this task."
Lape Chanal's breath was stagnant, and the confusion in his eyes became even worse.
His brows furrowed even more tightly, and when he looked at Li Nuo, his expression was a little solemn, but there was no hint of sullenness about being offended, and he obviously had a good heart:
"It's not that I doubt your credibility, Selina. But this law enforcement wizard is only a first-level wizard."
"Do you remember the three spies your youngest son caught at sea a week ago?" Selina asked.
"Yes, I know about this. It is said that the people who caught these three spies were a deep sea wizard named Hedwig, and a first-level law enforcement wizard named Mario...
"Oh, wait...first-level law enforcement wizards are rare in the Suman Islands."
Lape Chanal came to his senses and looked at Li Nuo with less confusion and more surprise:
"Could it be that the first-level law enforcement wizard named Mario is you?"
"Yes, Mr. Charnal." Li Nuo responded:
"You should have heard of my achievements and efficiency in uncovering spies, right? My performance at sea is also as stable as it is. I just took a turn around the moss-covered blue hole in Xingluo Sea, and I will do it for you. I uncovered several spies. I think this is enough to prove my talent in this area."
Selena helped and said:
"You might as well give Jarvis a try. He has never failed to investigate spies, and he has never wronged anyone."
Lape Chanel leaned back in his chair and thought.
Because of Li Nuo's appearance, this secret conversation skipped the polite part and got straight to the point.
Lape Chanal had to sort out the information related to Li Nuo in his mind and strictly screen and filter it.
Li Nuo and Selina gave him time to think.
The two acted calmly and did not seem worried that Lape Chanel might reject their proposal.
Selina is specifically responsible for connecting with the wizarding forces. She has statistics on wanted orders and bounty missions for each year.
Judging from the statistical results, the frequency of undercurrent spy incursions in the Chanal family can be described as the highest in the entire island.
The appearance of Li Nuo undoubtedly handed Lape Chanal a sharp knife to eliminate spies.
The only two possible reasons for Lape Chanal's rejection are...
"Well, you two, I have my concerns." Lape Chanal said:
"I can guarantee that my family and I have not colluded with the Terrorsail Pirate Nation. However, there are rumors that Dikra Fagan of the Pangola family was slandered by the Terrorsail Pirate Nation and received some threats from law enforcement wizards. Unusual treatment. I am worried that the same thing will happen to me and my family."
Li Nuo was already prepared for this reason. He looked at Selina and handed the speech to this elegant lady.
Selena didn't sign a confidentiality agreement with Dikla Fagan.
Not only that, she also has evidence that proves the truth.
"You can't be fooled by rumors, Chanal." Selina took out Dikla Fagan's surrender letter and handed it to the other party:
"Please take a look. This letter comes from Dikla Fagan's handwriting. It contains the complete incident."
Lape Chanal took the letter.
When he read that Dikla Fagan admitted that he secretly colluded with the Dreadsail Pirate Kingdom in an attempt to corrupt Selina, Lape Chanal's hand holding the letter trembled slightly:
"It's... unbelievable. An heir of the Pangola family would actually defect to the Dreadsail Pirate Kingdom. Is there anything worthy of him..."
"It is said to be several high-grade deep-sea mineral veins hidden under the sea." Selina explained:
"Conservative estimates put the mining value of these veins at more than 2.5 billion Unas gold coins."
"2.5 billion, the net profit of the Pangola family for a year. No wonder Dikla Fagan was tempted." Lape Chanal shook his head and sighed:
"Then it seems that the rumors that appeared on my desk were deliberately spread by Dikla Fagan in order to save the family's reputation."
Lape Chanel handed the letter back.
The letter did a good job of dispelling his first reason for declining the offer, but not enough to make him accept it.
Rappe Chanal considered it and said:
"I'm worried that the investigation of spies may involve secrets within the family, mainly the customer information and trade information of the Chanal family. This part of the content is very sensitive. It's not that I don't believe in the character of you two. It's just... I'm sorry. , I'm sorry, what I want to say is that Jarvis's strength may be a little weak when facing insidious and powerful enemies. He may be forced to reveal some of what he saw in the process of investigating spies, Overheard family secrets.”
Selena and Li Nuo looked at each other and cast admiring glances at Li Nuo.
The second point raised by Rappe Chanal had also been predicted by Li Nuo, and countermeasures had been prepared in advance.
"Don't worry about that, Chanal. When Jarvis recruits spies, they won't enter your and your family's territory."
Selena said:
"And if it wasn't for the immediate arrest of the criminal, he would not appear at any stronghold or ship under the Chanal family."
Rappe Chanelton looked confused:
"There is no need to enter the family's territory or get on the ship, so how can he investigate the whereabouts of the spy?"
Li Nuo interjected:
"I have omniscience, sir. I can deduce a person's origin, identity, position, and potential dangers from simple objects on a person's body. "
"Knowing all things..." Lape Chanal didn't quite believe Li Nuo's words.
Li Nuo anticipated his reaction and immediately began to prove his extraordinary abilities.
In Selina's study, Li Nuo's voice could be heard analyzing Rappe Chanal's clothes, hair wax, key rings, magic pockets, leather boots and other external things.
This speculation made Lape Chanal involuntarily exclaim.
He also took out some small objects he collected and gave them to Li Nuo to analyze one by one.
Selina watched quietly from the side, knowing that this secret conversation was almost certain.
No one can question or refute Li Nuo's extraordinary ability.
Li Nuo's performance in uncovering spies can be described as superb, and he will surely impress Lape Chanal.
For Li Nuo himself, there were two reasons why he decided to help Lape Chanal uncover the spy.
On the one hand, it is to increase the favorability of the Nar family, and on the other hand, it is also to expand its channels for obtaining pirate intelligence.
The spies in the Chanal family are here to dig up maritime trade information, and they are specifically responsible for informing the pirates.
By catching them and deconstructing them, you can grasp the rules of pirate trouble and the means of communication between the two parties.
From then on, Li Nuo was able to get ahead of the support fleet of the Deep Sea Branch and reach the scene of the pirates' robbery.
