"Mr. Jarvis, please wait. I will take you to see Elder Lanjin."
The fortune wizard who originally led Li Nuo left Li Nuo in the VIP lounge and then found an excuse to leave.
Now the person who came to lead Li Nuo to meet Elder Lanjin was the maid from Yongjin Castle.
Li Nuo followed the other party out of the VIP lounge, passed through the courtyard guarded by the wizard, and met the real owner in the reception room deep in the courtyard.
The so-called Blue Gold Elder is a middle-aged man with gray hair, an older appearance and a somewhat stooped figure.
He wore a magic robe with a black base and gold patterns. He wore a monocle on his right eye, and his eyes were slightly yellow and slightly turbid.
If the fortune wizard hadn't introduced him to Li Nuo, Elder Lan Jin was only 42 years old this year, and Li Nuo would have almost thought that he was in his 60s.
This kind of situation where the actual age is much younger than the appearance is rare among the wizards.
Because wizards can use the power of magic to transform their bodies and faces, keeping them young forever.
And if a person's "oldness" cannot be modified with magic, it generally means that the other person did it deliberately, or that this external manifestation cannot be covered up by magic.
What is the situation of Elder Lanjin?
The first time Li Nuo saw this elder, he threw out the Deconstruction Technique.

…
Griof Totai is a senior intelligence officer of the Pure Light Tribunal and is under the orders of the Elder Luo Guang of the Pure Light Tribunal.
Li Nuo clicked on the memory fragment and took a look. "Elder Luoguang" was the Jingguang wizard within the Jingguang Court who was responsible for intelligence affairs.
Therefore, the answer is obvious. Li Nuo's previous speculation was correct. The fact that the Fortune Wizard caused trouble for him was indeed the work of the Jingguang Court.
Once the decomposition results were obtained, half of Li Nuo's goal for this trip was accomplished.
The remaining half of the goal is very difficult to achieve.
Li Nuo wants to carry out reverse osmosis.
That is to say, through the blue-gold elder in front of him, he can reversely penetrate into the Jingguang Court and grasp the movements of the elder Luoguang.
If this goal can be achieved, then when the Jingguang Court deals with him in the future, Li Nuo will be able to anticipate and prepare in advance.
But how to achieve reverse osmosis...
"Mr. Jarvis, please accept my apology." Blue and Gold Elder Griof Totay stood up from his chair, walked around the desk, came to Li Nuo and bowed slightly:
"Due to a mistake while busy, I mistakenly filled in your information in the order book for searching for wizard criminals. I'm sorry for this situation. My original intention was to invite you to Yongjin Castle as soon as you arrived at the Everlasting Thunder Grit. I'm a guest. Now, please take a seat."
Elder Lanjin turned sideways and invited Li Nuo to sit down, then used his "Wizard's Hand" to bring hot tea and placed it in front of Li Nuo.
After this, he returned to his seat and sat down.
The whole set of movements was smooth and smooth, and the tone was sincere, as if it had been rehearsed many times, without giving Li Nuo any chance to attack.
Not only that, after Li Nuo sat down, Elder Lanjin clapped his hands and called the maid outside.
The waitress walked into the room with a tray and placed a box of magic gems and gold coins sealed in a luxurious metal box next to Li Nuo's tea cup.
The waitress left quietly.
Griov Totay said with a smile:
"Mr. Jarvis, please accept my gift, and once again please forgive me for my work mistakes."
Li Nuo glanced at the "Hate Value" column.
Ever since the Pure Light Tribunal and the Deep Sea Branch obtained the "Thunder Cloud Magic Scroll", the "hate value" value has steadily increased.
Before stepping into this reception room, the "hate value" was 553,000 points.
Now, this value has increased to 555,000 points, an increase of 2,000 points.
This intuitively reflects the inner changes of Griov Totay.
This guy was saying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please forgive me", but in fact he was thinking "Oh, oh, oh, what a bad luck."
Li Nuo thought for a moment, nodded expressionlessly and said:
"I hope the same thing won't happen again next time. The face of Wealth Co-Creation Association should not be trampled on like this."
"Yes, Mr. Jarvis, I promise, this will only happen once, just once."
Griov Totay smiled apologetically and said:
"Please let us get over this embarrassing scene. Under the guidance of the Co-Creation Association, I wanted to come to you to discuss an important matter..."
Li Nuo interjected and asked:
"How did you know I was coming to the Everlasting Calamity Thunder Grinch?"
In the newly obtained memory fragment - "Elder Lianguang's Instruction Book", Elder Lianguang just asked Griof Totai to send people to track Li Nuo's whereabouts, and did not explain how he knew that Li Nuo would appear. Eternal disaster.
Li Nuo really wanted to know the answer to this question.
Griev Totay faced this problem with a fake and bright smile:
"Sorry, Mr. Jarvis, this is the secret of the Wealth Co-Creation Association. All I can say is that there is no completely airtight wall in this world, and we can always find your whereabouts in clues."
Li Nuo's face darkened, deliberately showing his displeasure.
Griov Totay said:
"I know that a wizard like you who studies magic assiduously will be annoyed by the exposure of his whereabouts. But please believe me, Wealth Co-Creation is 100% sincere and eager to cooperate with you."
"Hmph..." Li Nuo hummed dissatisfied:
"Partnership? With a 'wizard criminal'?"
Griov Totay didn't take it seriously, ignored Li Nuo's sarcasm, and said with a smile:
"Do you know about our Wealth Co-creation Association?"
"Limited to the knowledge in the wizard's teaching materials." Li Nuo responded indifferently.
Griov Totay crossed his fingers on the table and introduced like a salesman:
"The Wealth Co-creation Association is a great wizarding force. We are committed to creating more wealth and continuously grabbing gold coins from the outside. If you want to become our ordinary member, you need to have sufficient gold coins. I am honored to inform you , Mr. Jarvis, according to your tax records we found from the Ministry of Magic, you already meet the conditions to join us."
Li Nuo was slightly startled.
I didn't expect that the other party was looking for me to kill someone.
Could this be a trap by the Pure Light Court?
Li Nuo clicked through the several memory fragments he had just obtained in his mind, and found the third memory fragment "The Correspondence Record between Elder Lianguang and Griof Totay" as quickly as possible, and clicked to view it.
At this glance, there are no secrets in this living room.
That's right!
Griof Totay invited Li Nuo to join the Wealth Co-Creation Association, which was Elder Luoguang's idea.
Elder Liao Guang wanted to tie Li Nuo's interests to the Co-Creation Association through the rules and profits of the Co-Creation Association.
Elder Li Nuo did not explicitly state in the letter how he would use the co-creation meeting to attack Li Nuo in the future, but Li Nuo could guess with his buttocks that it would definitely be a case involving "debt", "bankruptcy" and "huge compensation". conspiracy.
As long as Li Nuo loses everything in the Wealth Co-creation Association, it will be a matter of course to force him to sell the spell blueprint of "Thunder Cloud Technique" and pay tens of billions of gold coins to the Deep Sea Branch.
At the same time, Elder Lianguang also asked Griof Totai to carefully observe Li Nuo's mental trauma with the help of an enchanted monocle to see if the other party had recovered from the spell's backlash.
Griof Totay put on his monocle and stared at the silent Li Nuo, still smiling.
He stood up and walked half a circle around the desk:
"That's it, Mr. Jarvis. Ordinary members of the Wealth Co-Creation Association can already accept wealth creation tasks from the Wealth Co-Creation Association. The first-level wealth creation task requires at least 100 million gold coins as principal, and it takes time to start from one It ranges from one month to half a year. After completing the task, you can receive an additional 30% to 50% of the principal in cash or equivalent in addition to the principal recovered.
"Of course, the success rate of the mission is not 100%, and there is a lot of risk. But as your leader, I will select the mission with the highest success rate for you, greatly improving the chance of your mission's success. "
Griov Totay stood still in front of the table, smiling like a money man:
"The task of creating wealth does not require you to do it yourself. You just pay the money. The rest of the things will be handled by the wizard forces that cooperate with the Wealth Co-Creation Association. For example, mining magic ore. You only need to provide gold coins. Form a mining team and explore Professional wizards are responsible for a series of matters such as mineral veins. With such an easy investment, you can get up to 50% of the net profit. This is a delicacy that many people dream of. I wonder, are you interested?"
Li Nuo continued to remain silent, looking at Griof Totay with the eyes of a liar.
Griov Totay took off his monocle and wiped it gently:
"I know you are uncomfortable with the way Wealth Co-Creation operates and think we are scammers. But please don't think so. Wealth Co-Creation's ability to create wealth is obvious to all. You can trust Wealth with confidence The premise of co-creation is that you refer to the terms of the magic contract and conscientiously perform your duties."
Griof Totay put on his monocle, turned around and returned to the back of the desk, found a magic contract from the drawer, and handed it to Li Nuo with the "Wizard's Hand".
"This is the contract of the Wealth Co-Creation Association. Please take it back and read it carefully."
There was something inexplicable in Griof Totay's smile:
"The Wealth Co-Creation Association is also known as the Merchant Alliance of Balder's Gate. Since it is an alliance, there are alliance members and non-alliance members. Joining the Wealth Co-Creation Association is equivalent to becoming a member of the alliance and being affected by the co-creation It is protected by the rules of the association. But if you don’t join the Co-creation Association, you won’t be able to enjoy the treatment of an alliance member. If you do business at Balder’s Gate in the future, you must pay special attention to this. This is a friendly reminder.”
A local snake comes to ask for protection money? ...Li Nuo held the contract rolled into a barrel shape and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The influence of the Wealth Co-Creation Association not only covers the local area of Balder's Gate, but also extends to every corner of the Cahir continent.
Theoretically speaking, Li Nuo, who was in the trench of eternal disaster, was currently on the territory of the Wealth Co-Creation Association.
To say that Li Nuo's whereabouts were tracked under the guise of "searching for wizard criminals" is to "shock him".
The magic contract in front of me and the words just now are all about "luring people for profit" and "telling them with reason".
Isn’t it time to “act with emotion” next?
Moved by emotion?
No matter what, I don’t want to have sympathy with Fortune Co-Creation Society.
"Mr. Jarvis, our Wealth Co-creation Association is a loose but united family. Here, you can feel..."
Griov Totay opened his mouth and said something disgusting.
Li Nuo hurriedly shouted to stop:
"Ahem. I see your sincerity. I will consider your proposal. Maybe joining wealth co-creation is not a bad decision. At least you can find some superficial stability."
Griov Totay was interrupted by Li Nuo, but he was not angry. Instead, he nodded slightly and smiled:
"Your intuition is very accurate. Then I won't go into details. I believe that with your talent, you can definitely make the right decision."
Li Nuo stood up, swept the metal box on the table with his "wizard hand", and put it and the magic contract into his magic pocket.
Griof Totay sent Li Nuo to the door and asked the waitress to lead him to the terrace where the take-off took place.
Three minutes later, Li Nuo left Yongjin Castle and flew towards the mountain peak where Dinas was.
Li Nuo thought that if he didn't have deconstruction skills, he would never be able to discover the intrigue between Griof Totey and the Pure Light Tribunal.
He will regard what happened to him as a coercion and inducement from the Wealth Co-Creation Association, with the purpose of forcing him to join the Co-Creation Association.
It is conceivable that if the answer cannot be given in time, Li Nuo will definitely be unable to move forward during the days of eternal disaster, and will be made things difficult by the Wealth Co-creation Association from time to time.
In a sense, after signing the contract and paying 100 million gold coins, you can survive.
but!
This speculation is based on the fact that Griof Totay has no connection with the Pure Light Tribunal.
Under the premise that there is a secret connection between the two, Li Nuo will not easily believe that a magical contract alone can protect him from the malice from the Pure Light Court.
This kind of pressure from the behemoth will always hover around Li Nuo, unless the Pure Light Court disappears completely.
Li Nuo raised his head and looked up at the sun hanging in the sky.
Just like the sun is unattainable, the Pure Light Court is also invincible to Li Nuo.
The road in front of him seemed to be about compromise and taking one step at a time.
"Pinning future hopes on my opponents is not my style..."
Li Nuo slowed down his flight speed and passed by the edge of the dark cloud zone of the eternal thunder chasm.
He looked at the thunder pit shrouded in black clouds, his eyes flashing with lightning, and a plan of "extreme backhand counterattack" quickly took shape.
This solution is designed for extreme situations.
If Jingguang Court and Wealth Co-creation are too tight, Li Nuo can temporarily not adopt it.
But when the two deceive others too much, Li Nuo will decisively use this plan.
The environment here in Yongjie Leiyan has four distinctive characteristics:
First, you cannot fly within the range of dark clouds, otherwise you will be blown to pieces by thunderstorms in the clouds.
Second, it is absolutely impossible for people or magic devices outside the mine to observe the scene inside the mine.
Third, thunder and lightning magic will receive environmental bonuses, making it even more powerful.
Fourth, after non-thunder and lightning wizards enter the thunder trench, their magical power will inevitably decrease because the thunder and lightning energy is too rich.
Even if the Pure Light Wizard enters the mine, he can only have about 80% of his combat strength.
Only holy wizards of the ninth or tenth ring, or quasi-holy wizards of the eighth ring, can temporarily increase their combat strength to 100% by opening the secondary plane.
It can be said that this place is not only a "playground" for lightning ghosts, but also a treasure land for killing and stealing.
Luuring the opponent deep into the trench and then ambushing him on the spot was one of Li Nuo's options.
But "ambushing the opponent" is only the first step. How to deal with the Jingguang Court's desperate attempts in the future is the key.
If the Jingguang Court finds incriminating evidence against Li Nuo, then the confrontation between the Jingguang Court and the "Silent Girl" will be inevitable.
This goes against the promise Li Nuo made to Professor Erica. He promised the other party not to create strong opponents for the "Silent Girl", including behemoths like the Pure Light Tribunal.
"...So, given the right time, location, and my personal combat power, how to deal with the opponent without leaving any trace is the key."
With a thought in his mind, Li Nuo raised his head and looked east, his gaze directed at the "barren stone quarry" a hundred kilometers away.
Fight back, use the knife to shark people, frame the blame, leave no trace, no leakage...
A series of flawless and deadly plans were quickly woven in Li Nuo's mind, with various characters, terrain, and power factors intersecting.
The pressure from the Jingguang Court surrounded Li Nuo and drove him to prepare for resistance. (End of chapter)
