Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 398 Betrayal
Redstone couldn't help wondering if there was something wrong with his potion.Did you make a mistake when deploying it yourself?After all, wizards are not machines, and it is normal for even very skilled wizards to make mistakes occasionally.Redstone cannot guarantee that its deployment is perfect every time.

Antikus was gifted, but somehow he couldn't.

Maybe it was a little early.

Although many people think that wizarding is a profession that one learns from a young age, Hongshi knows from his teacher that those apprenticeships have nothing to do with the real ability of wizards.In fact, it is an apprentice, rather than a wizard's assistant, responsible for some miscellaneous things.The most basic power of a true wizard is psychic, and this is basically only allowed after an adult has reason and calmness.Antikus was indeed young—in fact, if it wasn’t for his strong request, Redstone felt that he should have waited two or three years before letting him start the first attempt—and the results seemed to prove his judgment was correct of.

"Teacher... that... I didn't feel that kind of feeling..."

"This kind of failure is normal, it's just the first time." Hongshi tried his best to comfort him, he didn't want to leave any psychological shadow on his students. "Don't continue, you go back and have a rest..." He then thought that he might need to arrange some work for his students, so that he would not think too much about this failed psychic experience. "By the way, there is an invitation, you can go instead of me."

"What invitation?"

"Go to Europe, there is a gathering of the magic world over there, although you are only an apprentice, you can go for me." It is impossible for Hongshi to go by himself, and the government of the United States is watching. "Take it as a free trip and learn - if you get the chance - from other people's useful experience."

He casually came to his desk and opened the drawer, and took out the invitation card from the drawer.He has many invitations like this, and people everywhere invite this world, who may not be unique, but is definitely the most famous magician.But this invitation was different. It came with a small check for the plane ticket and a receipt for the hotel reservation.The time is about a month later, and it will be held in a big city in Europe.According to the invitation, almost all the celebrities from the European magic world will be there at that time.

Antikus went out from the Redstone residence.The great wizard's residence is still unpretentious, and others dare not renovate his house at will.But looking around, almost all the dwellings in the entire tribe have been completely renewed.The roads have been well repaired, and almost every household has bought a new car.In addition, a large number of shops have sprung up here, including restaurants, bars, cinemas, cafes and other places of consumption.This scene is completely different from a year ago.

There is an old saying in the Republic of China, which is called "a thousand things can be done in a day with silver".It vividly depicts the huge role money plays in the operation of society.This is even more fully reflected in the capitalist United States.

Now, this piece of Indian land is flourishing at the fastest speed.It could only be called a small town, but it is rapidly transforming into a "small town".Maybe three to five years later, it will become a medium-sized city.This is not delusional, but the chief seems to be really working in this direction.

There is actually planning to build a new museum... to show Indian traditional culture here.It's the posture of a rich local tyrant.

Of course, nowadays, it is not an exaggeration to call them "local tyrants" in the tribe.But being rich means that the public has money, and it has nothing to do with Antikus himself.

In fact, as far as he is concerned alone, he has to admit that he is much poorer than he was a year ago.Because at least a year ago he was not in debt.

After walking a certain distance, he slowly took out a bottle from his pocket.

A very common glass bottle, or medicine bottle.It can be bought relatively easily in any pharmacy in any civilized country in the world.At this moment, the glass bottle contained some kind of potion.

He took out his cell phone and made a call.The other party answered almost instantly, obviously waiting for a long time.

"I got something," he said softly.Looking at the bottle in his hand, he felt a little uneasy.But it soon becomes clear that he has no choice.If he still doesn't pay the money, there won't be any hesitation on the debt collection side.And if he was found out about borrowing money...he would rather not think about the consequences. "Fifty thousand dollars. Give the money first!"

"Of course, no problem." The other party answered quickly and directly, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

In about 3 minutes, the mobile phone received a reminder that $[-] had arrived in his bank account.He finally felt relieved and turned to use the money to pay off the debts one by one.

Fifty thousand dollars is indeed not a small amount of money. The three debts he owed were all paid off smoothly. Of course, there is not much left in his bank account.Thinking of his girlfriend repeatedly mentioning that he wanted to go to a celebrity concert, he felt a little headache.

Attending a concert is more than just two tickets.Because the concert is in another big city, this means that you need to arrange hotel accommodation, meals, transportation, and buy souvenirs—of course, the most important thing is to go shopping in a big city, and enjoy shopping along the way!Thinking of his girlfriend's appetite, Antikus estimated that it would cost more than [-] knives.

He already felt great pressure.But when he thought of his girlfriend's sexy red lips, her tenderness and consideration, her soft waist and slender thighs, the determination in his heart was extinguished like a candle in the wind.

Over there the phone rang. "Have you received the money? Then let's meet at the old place!" The other party spoke simply and straightforwardly, without a word of superfluous nonsense.

He walked along the road for about an hour, and came to a nearby auto repair shop-this factory seemed half-dead in the past, with a business list.But since the situation of the tribe has taken on a new look, even the repair shop has become in full swing.

At present, there are at least twenty repairmen in the repair shop, plus some other personnel, providing at least thirty jobs for the tribe.Of course, due to the severe shortage of people in the tribe, half of the repairmen here are white.

Antikus walked into the reception room of the repair shop, where someone was already waiting.

Almost without any hesitation, he took out the glass bottle and handed it to the other party.

"This is... the psychic potion prepared by the great wizard?" the other party asked.

"I'm sure, I should have drunk it." Antikus said impatiently. "Then I could begin my first wizarding lessons. But I pass up the opportunity to bring it to you."

Although [-] dollars is very important, he also has to admit that it is a pity to miss this opportunity.Even if he is sure that he will have a chance in the future.

"But we also paid a corresponding price." The other party said.There was a certain contempt in the words that made Antikus uncomfortable.He hated this man, but there was nothing he could do.

"Okay, I'm leaving." While the other party was carefully looking at the bottle in his hand, Antikus said goodbye and left.

"A real bottle...a potion used by wizards to assist psychics...not the kind of deceitful thing that is sold." The other party did not stop Antikus from leaving, but just stared at the bottle and whispered to himself.He has a desire to drink it directly.Maybe he can also have the power of Indian wizards because of it.But reason told him that without guidance, even if it was the real potion, it would be useless for him to drink it.This is something used for the first lesson, but it can only be used for the first lesson, it does not mean that you will learn magic immediately.

Putting the bottle away, he drove away quickly.

That night, the commissioner received the final information about the "psychic potion" test.The report was sent by an experienced subordinate who was quite accomplished in chemistry.The testing of the potion was carried out under his supervision.You can be sure that this test report will be rigorous and reliable.

"You mean," the commissioner looked at the subordinate in front of him, "this is a bottle of hallucinogens?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, the ingredients are not much different from normal necrotic potions - the ones we buy from Redstone. It has some extra ingredients, but it is reasonable to think that these are not critical. "

"All in all, the Indian didn't lie to us about the psychic potion?"

"Yes, you can think so."

The commissioner leaned hard on the back of the chair, this is not good news.This shows that the secrets hidden by the Indians are not so simple.

He believed that it was a "window paper" type of secret, but it was really not easy to pierce the window paper.It seems that this aspect still needs patience.He waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to leave.Then he turned on the communication software and contacted Mr. Peter, the current captain of the permafrost ecological research survey team.They have been setting off for a while now—in fact, the relevant matters are not fully prepared at this time, but timing is everything, and Mr. Peter wisely chose to change things while walking.At that time, he was already in Northern Europe.

"How about the expedition?"

"Very well, Mao Ziguo has given permission." Peter replied in the software. "Now we have a reason to be there for a full year - I'm putting the final touches on supplies."

Expedition team is not that simple job, after all, it is to take a group of people to the wilderness far away from the civilized world, so it is understandable to spend more time on preparation.The Commissioner attaches great importance to this operation.The door is wide open in terms of budget and personnel.

It is likely from this place that the Red Empire got clues about supernatural abilities, and finally established an army.

"By the way, there is an event. Armstrong asked one of his students to attend."

"Professor Armstrong? Is that the ancient linguist?" The commissioner felt a little strange, but of course this professor is actually very important.In fact they predict that they have a high probability of getting hold of ancient texts.For example, stone carvings and the like.It is the professor's job to interpret and translate his ancient documents correctly.Some people may think that it would be easier to take a photo and send it back for translation, but the commissioner believes that such a person is needed in the team just in case.

"Yes, that's him," said Peter. "His student is a talented girl. A person who is extremely talented in linguistics. If there are really difficult to decipher ancient characters, she will be useful."

"Genius girl, another genius girl..." the Commissioner muttered. "Does this require us to do anything?"

"Nothing is needed, that talented girl's family is very rich, she can even be used as a team donor."

The commissioner felt a little confused for a while.Donate?Contribute?However, these experts, scholars and professors in the team did not know the truth of the journey, and they were all told some specious information.For example, Professor Armstrong, he was told that the expedition was supposed to carry out research on permafrost ecology, but was actually looking for the ruins of an ancient civilization.But he had no idea that this matter had something to do with the magic research of the United States.

By the way, this Professor Armstrong, as a scholar of ancient languages, is also an archaeological fanatic.It was not difficult to convince him to join the expedition.In fact, he is still actively advising on the expedition.

"Nothing?"

"Yes, there is no need to do anything." Even across the Internet, I can still feel the ardent expectation of my subordinates. "More than that, it will allow us to work a little faster."

"Then do as he said." The commissioner replied disinterestedly.This is indifferent.He now somewhat understands why a newcomer should be introduced, well, this is actually just a matter of some funding.You know, if you bring in donors, some of the money that has been budgeted in advance can not be spent, and it can quietly stay in someone's pocket.Considering that this is going to be in the ice and snow for three months or maybe longer, this kind of move is understandable.As long as it doesn't affect the progress of the mission, he can turn a blind eye to it.

Even he can get a part of it himself.

"Have you considered the issue of personnel rotation?" the commissioner reminded.This operation must be well considered, especially to be prepared for a protracted war.If the Gate of Hell is really directly related to the super-powered troops, it means that the Red Empire invested a huge cost of money and time.In other words, there is a high possibility that this expedition cannot be resolved in a few days, and may take three months or more.

"There are two plans, the first is to rent a boat, and the second is an airplane. We will set up a small camp in a natural port over there as a transfer point, and just hire a few locals. It is also possible to use the time of the Red Empire to A small airport over there. However, the airport has been abandoned for a long time. I don’t know what the situation is, and it may attract Maoziguo’s attention. At present, we plan to use the airport as the first plan. If the airport is difficult to repair, then we choose the second Program."

"Very well," replied the commissioner.As expected of an experienced expert, Mr. Peter's arrangement was perfect. "I'm waiting for good news from you."

"We will live up to what we entrust!" Peter vowed over there.
