Basta wanted to talk to her alone. Normally, such a hint was not a big deal, but if one knew Kardashian well, they would know that this spoiled daughter of a lord had always done things her own way. If Basta dared to make such a request in the past, he would be kicked out of the room.
Because Roddy cooked a few crabs for Kardashian, Basta treated him as a rival in love. At that time, Kardashian and Basta's attitude was basically, "I don't care who you are, if you dare to talk nonsense, I'll kill you." But now, Kardashian had become a "useless person." Even if she had the title of "Honorary Elder," the younger generation of Dragons were busy with their own affairs all day long. They were not sensitive to current political news and did not understand the importance of the "Strategic Arms Research Department". They also did not know that their research was … projects that the Elders and Lords wanted to participate in but could not.
So Basta was asking on the surface, but his attitude was much more confident and powerful than before.
After all, Dragons only respected strength. Even though Basta and the others' attitude was so obvious, Iscar and the others still did not use the title of "Honorary Elder" to pressure them. Because in their hearts, it was very shameful to use a title to intimidate people when their strength was not worthy of the position.
This time, Kardashian did not object. She pointed to the side door next to the laboratory and said, "It's not easy for everyone to come here. Let's not talk here for a while. There is a lounge next to it. How about we go there? "
"Lounge? Okay, of course! "
Kardashian did not refuse Basta's request, which was a very obvious signal to him. Before, let alone talking to her, every time they met, he would be on tenterhooks. Because he heard from Roddy that Kardashian had "violent tendencies," he was very afraid to meet her. However, at this moment, it seemed that strength was the guarantee of status. The once overbearing Kardashian also had this day. Basta had a hypocritical smile on his face, but in his heart, he was shouting with joy.
The lounge was a spacious living room. There were armchairs and a magic circle for heating drinks. The walls were made of huge crystals. Activating the magic circle was like a huge window that allowed one to see the scene outside the Magic Tower. However, it could not be opened because of the cracks.
The apprentices would come regularly to clean up and place snacks and drinks on the table. Usually, when there was a break in their research, the few of them would take a nap here, drink a cup of hot tea, and relax their minds.
However, when Kardashian reached out to push open the door of the lounge, she paused and narrowed her eyes. Behind him, Iskar raised his eyebrows and said, "Er … this …"
"The apprentice is quite early today."
Kardashian replied. Iscar reacted quickly and immediately nodded. "If only they were this diligent every day."
The red dragon turned to look behind him and squeezed out a smile. "There should be enough seats in this lounge. Everyone, pour whatever you want."
Stika, Essien, and Rubens looked around strangely. However, with Kardashian and Iscar shouting in front of them, they did not say anything. Instead, they silently walked to the table and began to use the magic circle to heat up the water.
Aside from looking at Kardashian, Basta kept glancing at Essien. The latter had already noticed it. After putting down the water bottle, he asked curiously, "Is something wrong?"
"Ah, nothing." Basta paused for a moment and could not help but ask, "How does it feel to research here?"
Essien and Basta were not familiar with each other and had never even spoken to each other before. Now that he was asked, he thought that the other was just being polite and replied, "It's not bad. We can learn a lot of new things every day when we communicate with each other."
This was the truth, but Basta could not help but think the other way around. After all, Basta could not help but feel jealousy burning in his heart when he heard the words "everyone communicate with each other". He glanced at Kardashian, who was looking at the crystal wall. However, due to the severe damage to the tower, there was an obvious crack in the middle of the scenery, adding a sense of dilapidation.
"Then shall we go over there and talk? Aglais and the others can stay here. "
He took the initiative to request. Kardashian nodded and walked to the side with her arms crossed. The lounge that originally only had a large bay had a second layer of cubicles. This additional structure made Stika and the others feel strange, but they did not ask any questions. Instead, they chatted about other topics.
After the two left, Iscar glanced at the four Dragons. The strength of the four dragons in front of him was average in the dragon race. In front of the elites, these people did not have any right to speak, but at this time, they were not as reserved as they used to be. Among them, the green dragon Dean sat on the armchair and even crossed his legs. He asked Stika, "Elder, how does it feel to stay in this Magic Tower?"
Even though they had the title of 'Honorary Elder', no one had ever called them that during this period of time. Now that they were being addressed this way, Stika replied directly, "You don't have to call me Elder. Just call me by my name."
After a pause, he exhaled and said, "What else can the Magic Tower be like? There is food and drink, and there is enough to go around."
"Don't, you still have to call me Elder. After all, this is a title given by the feudal lords themselves. "
Black Dragon Herrlöw interrupted, "I saw you adjusting the magic circle just now? But it seems to be some very basic things. "
Rubens opened his mouth to refute, but Iscar stopped him and replied, "Yes, now our strength is not as good as before. If we want to do something, we can't cast spells directly, so we can only use the magic circle to help."
"Don't, although there is no Dragon Crystal, the memories of being Dragons are still there, right? I have seen those things of the human Mages, they are purely inferior products that imitate the Dragon Language Magic. There is no future in learning those things. "
The green dragon Dean's voice was a little shrill, and the content of his words was even more ear-piercing. After all, this directly denied the efforts of Iscar and the others, and it could even be said that it directly denied the direction of their research.
On the other hand, the crystal dragon Nick felt that this was a little too much, so he quickly added a few words to smooth things over, "Of course, our level is not high either. Perhaps there are some good points in human magic, and it is normal for us to learn and learn from them. If you need any help, you can look for us at any time. "
"Yes, we will, we will."
Iscar's smile was a little stiff, but he was still holding it in. At this moment, they really experienced the grievance of a tiger being bullied by a dog. In terms of magic attainments, these guys in front of them were simply half-baked. If they really had a duel, Iscar and the others who had the Dragon Crystal could easily fight against three of them.
But now that they did not have the Dragon Crystal, they could only hold back their countless retorts in their hearts.
"Oh, by the way, I heard that the elders were researching something. It seems that the feudal lords attach great importance to it?"
