A sneeze destroys a magical civilization

"Yes! I just want a super energy storage device that is huge enough to withstand the blue dragon's lightning breath many times."

Ebeni ​​Arbo stood up and expressed his demands straightforwardly.

Not only that, he also opened his arms and made a hugging movement to indicate the size of the cylindrical energy storage device he wanted.

Zuo Si asked with some confusion: "Why do you want to make it so big? If you just resist the blue dragon's lightning breath, making it almost three times the normal size should be enough to resist at least twelve times."

But Abenny Arbor shook his head: "No! It's not enough! You just need to tell me, are there any technical difficulties in manufacturing such a large energy storage device?"

"That's not true. But you have to understand that doubling the volume means that the cost of materials will also increase. And... I need a large enough workshop and a mage tower that can provide ample energy."

Seeing that there was more wool to be harvested, Zuo Si immediately made a series of requests.

He didn't care whether the other party used this device to slay the dragon or for some other purpose.

As long as it's profitable, everything is fine.

“Problems that can be solved with money are never problems.

rest assured! You make a list for me now, and someone will be sent to get everything done early tomorrow morning.

Not only that, I will also give you a reward of 50,000 gold coins and a small gift to express my gratitude after the event is completed. "

Ebeni ​​Abo showed her rich nature without any nonsense.

He didn't even ask what materials were needed or how much they were worth, and he immediately agreed.

In this way, the two quickly reached an agreement.

When Zuo Si was writing a list of materials with the pen and paper provided by the servant, Aisha secretly came over and whispered a reminder that more valuable things such as gems and fine gold could be "appropriately" added to the list.

This alone is enough to prove that this cunning magic item dealer often treats Ebeni ​​Arbor as a "capital".

It is estimated that even the magic items sold to him are more expensive than others.

I have to say that Zuo Si really guessed it right this time.

Just now, Aisha sold five energy storage devices to Albenni at a high price of 35,000 gold coins each.

The latter didn't even bother to counter-offer and simply asked the servant to present a bag of priceless precious gems.

These include green emeralds, rubies, diamonds, red zircons, etc., which are often used in casting spells and making magic items, as well as several famous Bejuri gems and tears of the king.

The value of one of the latter two is often as high as thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins.

As for the previous ones, most of them are worth between 1,500 and 5,000 gold coins each.

Unfortunately, the sorceress did this transaction very secretly and was not seen by Zuo Si.

She still calculated her share based on the price of 9,100 gold coins each, fully bringing her profiteer nature to the extreme.

But just when both of them regarded Ebeni ​​Arbor as the "biggest enemy" and brutally slaughtered him, the man showed a meaningful smile on his face, turned around and walked into a secret door in the basement.

The next second...

He teleported directly from his home to another unknown room.

Since there were no windows or any lighting equipment, almost everything around him was pitch black.

But this had no impact on Ebeni ​​Arbor.

He walked straight to the middle of the house, then knelt on one knee and recited some ancient and mysterious spell.

After a while, a ball of flame suddenly appeared out of thin air!

More and more flames followed, and eventually two intertwined signs, which looked a bit like a 3, were constructed on the huge round stone table.

When the last flame was lit, an undead creature wearing a black robe that looked like a dry human skeleton finally appeared in the center of the stone table.

In one of its hands, it held a powerful staff that exuded dazzling arcane aura, and a faint light shone in its two empty eye sockets without eyeballs.

Anyone with a bit of common sense can recognize that this is a lich who serves as the "big villain" in countless horror stories.

An evil spellcaster who transforms himself into an immortal being to gain immortality.

"Lagon! Great Lord of Symbols! This humble servant comes to report to you."

Ebeni ​​Abo respectfully put one hand on her chest and lowered her head.

The humility he showed at this moment was completely opposite to the way he kept talking at home.

I'm afraid those slaves and servants will never know that behind their terrible master, there is an even more terrible master.

The lich known as Lagon asked in a low, hoarse voice: "What was the result?"

"He has agreed to build a larger energy storage unit for us."

Abenny Arbor answered in the affirmative without thinking.

After hearing this, the Lich immediately nodded with satisfaction: "Very good!

Remember, this device must be made as big as possible at all costs.

It will become one of our most important secret weapons against the "Sharp Teeth" of Sarglan of Ivicora (Anti-Harmony).

This powerful ancient blue dragon has disappeared for nearly ninety years, and it is very close to its awakening time once in a hundred years.

We must prepare for the worst.

In addition, if you need anything, you can directly contact several families on the list.

They will be more than happy to provide you with any help they can. "

"Understood! Please don't worry, I will ensure that there will be no mistakes in the entire manufacturing process." Ebeni ​​Arbo assured. "Beyond that, I made some interesting discoveries about this maker."

"Oh? What interesting discovery?" There was a hint of curiosity in the Lich's tone.

"Last night, he was assassinated.

The person who did it was a subordinate of Captain Hallet of the Bloody Hand, named Mook.

During the battle, he not only used the [Corpse Manipulation] wand in public without any scruples, but he also forcibly transformed the assassin into a shadow creature.

And using the abilities gained after its transformation, he cleanly killed all the people in the stronghold and looted all the property inside.

Finally, a fire was set to burn everything that could be used as evidence.

Personally, I think his style fits the organization very well.

Maybe... I can try to win him over to join you. "

Ebeni ​​Arbor carefully spoke out the thoughts in her mind.

The Lich stood there and pondered for a moment, and soon let out a cold and harsh laugh.

After half a minute, it stopped, raised its hand with only bones left, touched its mandible, and said meaningfully: "A man with a strong sense of revenge, an unusual desire for wealth and magical knowledge, and a complete A young man who doesn't mind using necromancy magic to deal with his enemies?

It does sound like it has quite a bit of potential and is a worthy candidate.

However, [Entanglement Talisman] is not something that just anyone can join.

Let's give him a trial first.

See if he will waver or flinch when faced with the righteous questioning of those paladins. "

"As you wish! Once the new energy storage device is completed, I will send someone to arrange it immediately."

After saying this, Ebeni ​​Abo once again bent down and bowed deeply, placed several energy storage devices bought at high prices on the stone table, and then turned around and teleported back through the secret door again. His own mansion.

After watching his servants leave, the Lich picked up one of them and released a detection magic on the inside of the crystal.

After about two or three minutes, it murmured in a voice that only it could hear: "What an interesting and ingenious design.

It can actually absorb and store any form of lightning energy, and then release it.

Its internal complex structure and materials are simply like a work of art pieced together by knowledge and magic.

If this young man can pass the test, maybe in a few decades, there will be a new lich in the organization.

Even the new talisman master..."
