In a special secret room.
Grimm finally sat down calmly and began to negotiate with Wizard Domhnar.
"Lord Grimm, did you come to the east just for the Divine Godly Stone of Luminous?" As the host, Domhnar was naturally the first to speak.
Although Domhnar was the only one in the room, Grimm could clearly sense that he was being watched by at least twenty mysterious conscients. It could be said that apart from some elders who had important matters to attend to or were trapped in other planes, the rest of the grade 4 Magi were all paying attention to this negotiation in various ways.
"After coming to this place, I've deeply felt the power and momentum of the Magus Union's development. The knowledge here, the waymarks from other planes, the slaves from other planes, and the high-grade resources are all things I'm interested in. But before we talk about them, I want to settle the matter of the Divine Godly Stone of Luminous … "Although Grimm was alone, he did not lose to his opponent in terms of aura.
"Currently, the Union only has one Divine Godly Stone of Luminous. What price are you willing to pay for it?"
"I seem to recall that the Divine Godly Stone of Luminous is in Olivier's hands.
"You don't have to worry about that, sir. The Divine Godly Stone of Luminous was originally given to Olivier as a reward for the mission. If you agree to our conditions, I will naturally have a way to get her to hand it over! "Domhnar narrowed his eyes with a cunning look on his face.
Grimm muttered to himself for a moment before finally speaking.
"Lord Domhnar should know that I have some special mushrooms from another plane that can increase the aptitude of a Magus to a certain extent. They are effective even for grade 4 Magi … If you are willing to give me the Divine Godly Stone of Luminous, I can give you three portions of these special mushrooms in exchange!"
"It's just some resources that can increase the aptitude of a Magus. It's not worth our attention!" That Wizard Domhnar could not help but speak proudly, "Our Magus Union has been around for tens of thousands of years, and we have many resources like this. Not only do we have resources that can increase the aptitude of a Magus, but we also have resources that can increase one's aptitude and potential … "
Grimm furrowed his brows and could not help but feel nervous.
If it had been someone else, Grim would have thought that they were bluffing in order to bargain with him. But facing this old man who had lived for more than a thousand years, Grim sincerely believed that everything he said was the truth.
With the size of the Sorcerer Association and the accumulation of tens of thousands of years of resources, if the association didn't even have such a foundation, wouldn't it be a joke? However, these items were considered strategic resources. Unless they were at their wits' end, the three major Sorcerer Organisations would not easily let them fall into the hands of their competitors.
On the other hand, Grimm and his Crimson Family were too poor. Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken out such resources to trade with outsiders.
"Then … what does Sir want?" Grim asked in a deep voice.
Twirling his sparse beard, Domnall said leisurely, "I want you!"
"You want me?"
"Yes, as long as you are willing to join our Magus Association, I can make the decision to give you this Divine Ore of Luminous Flame as a gift!"
Grimm narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Sir, you should know that I'm also an elder of the scattered Tower Forest Association!"
"The elder of the scattered Tallinn Association …" Domhnar repeated Grim's answer and almost laughed himself into convulsions. "Your Excellency, you want to insist on this point, but I wonder if Friede is willing or not!"
Saying this, he began to laugh maniacally!
Hearing the arrogant laughter, Grimm's expression first turned sullen, then a trace of awkwardness. Finally, he sighed with a gloomy expression and did not say a word.
One could not blame the other party for his sarcasm. Grimm's position in the Scattered Tower Forest in the central continent was indeed a little awkward. For the past 80 years, he had not come out. On one hand, he wanted to slowly recover from the damage to his soul. On the other hand, he was worried that he would continue to provoke the frightened Magi of the central continent.
If not for the fact that he wanted to form an 'alliance' with the Flame Tyrant and obtain the method to refine the Law of Fire, he would not have come out of his seclusion and reappeared in the eyes of the public.
This time, the only thing he could rely on was the Divine Fire Pearl that he had begun to gain control of.
It was thanks to this level 5 source magic artifact that Grimm was able to suppress Olivier, causing Olivier to feel indignant, but unable to do anything about it.
"Since both of us are willing to talk openly, there's no need for you to lie to me, sir. Your position in the central continent is very awkward, and you can say that you are in a dilemma. If you really want to unify the scattered Tower Forest, let alone our three major organizations, I'm afraid that the internal backlash will be very fierce. Are you really confident that you can suppress the combined efforts of those ten Magi? "
"Even if you endure for a few more years, and your family's power grows a bit stronger. When you truly have the power to unify the central continent, do you think our three major organizations will still sit by and watch you do this? "
Grimm fell into an indescribable silence.
"I've heard that your family already has four powerful experts. You, Mary, Alice, and a powerful Thunder Dragon from another world … This kind of power cannot be underestimated in the future. However, compared to our Magus Association, it's not even worth mentioning. "
"Rather than being hindered by those mediocre people, you might as well come to our Magus Association. At least here, we have a wider world for you to use. Moreover, our Magus Association's knowledge and resources are far superior to those of the other two major organizations. Compared to the scattered Tower Forest, we are like the heavens and the earth. "
"If you still want to advance to rank 5, coming to our Magus Association is undoubtedly the wisest choice!"
Although this vice-chairman Domhnar's battle prowess was unknown, his eloquence and insight were top-notch. Even with Grimm's staunch temperament, he was shaken by his words, and even his mind began to waver.
However, at this moment, the A.I. Chip's cold voice sounded in Grimm's mind.
[Detected the existence of a strange spiritual force field … Estimated effect is Spiritual Contamination. Able to make the target believe the caster's words more easily … Please be on your guard!]
Damn, it's actually a spiritual force field … No wonder I was convinced by him to the point where my heart palpitated.
Grimm cursed angrily as he roused the Law of Fire to guard his mind.
Apart from a strange flame rune that suddenly lit up in the depths of his black pupils, there were no other changes to his appearance.
Domhnar, who had been watching Grimm closely, felt that he had led Grimm's mind into the path he had set for himself. Just as he was about to strike while the iron was hot, the strange flame rune suddenly burned a large hole in his dense web of spiritual force.
Dhomhnar's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly lost control of Grimm's mind.
"Lord Domhnar, thank you for your concern!" Grimm's eyes were burning as he laughed coldly, "I'm currently living very well in the central part of the continent, and have no plans to move to the east. Let's talk about the specifics of the deal! "
* Cough … *
Seeing that Grimm's mind had broken free from the control of his spiritual force, Domhnar could only sigh regretfully, a smile appearing on his face once again.
"Since you have no intention of coming to our Magus Association, we won't force you. Then this deal can only be carried out according to the rules! Ten million magic crystals, as well as the special mushroom seeds and all the cultivation techniques. "
As soon as Domhnar finished speaking, the mental network behind him rang with the loud protest of Olivier, who had tortured and killed Witch Olivier.
"Olivier, this matter concerns the interests of all the elders in the association, so you can't cause trouble here. Isn't what you want the most for your brother to live for a few more years? Fine, I can make the decision to send a punitive army to attack the Elven Kingdom and seize the Tree of Life from them. I believe that with the Tree of Life as a sacrifice, your brother will have no problem living for another hundred years. What do you think? You have nothing to say now! "
The Tree of Life of a mid-level Elven Kingdom was naturally inferior to a rank 5 divine item egg. But Olivier also knew that this was the biggest concession the old man could make, and he had no choice but to agree to this condition.
Olivier gritted his teeth and said sternly, "I will personally lead that team. My brother doesn't have many more years left, and we cannot allow them to slowly invade us! "
"Deal!"
Just a few casual words from two top-notch Magi could set off a bloodbath in some other world. And the motive behind all this was just to let the family of a rank 4 Magus live for a few more years!
Grimm had no idea what Domhnar was doing behind the scenes. He frowned and pondered deeply about the other party's conditions.
Ten million magic crystals … Hand over all the special mushrooms …
These two conditions piled on top of each other was an unbearable pressure for the Crimson Family! Even Grimm had to think carefully before making a decision that could affect the future of the Crimson Family. He had to think carefully about the consequences before making such a decision.
Finally, after a quarter of an hour, Grimm took off a strangely shaped ring from the ring finger of his right hand and said solemnly, "This is the Soden Sacred Ring, a rank 4 treasure I obtained from a Paladin Plane. It can purify one's own energy into non-elemental holy light energy. I can use it to exchange for some magic crystals. Is that okay? "
After saying that, Grimm inserted the flame energy into the Soden Sacred Ring, and immediately formed a shield of holy light and holy light arrows in front of him.
For no reason, Domhnar's eyebrows twitched. The low roar of Wizard Geradin rang in his mind.
"I want this ring. Old man, help me get it!"
