Silva didn't object. If not for Salin's needs, she wouldn't have left her children. They were growing very fast, at least twice as fast as normal children. They could already practice some skills.
In the temple, everyone was the teacher of these two children. But there was only one mother.
Since Silva didn't go, Salin didn't dare bring Daniel and the others. He would only bring Neris, Irene, Zola, and Nicholas with him. While Eleanor hadn't advanced to level-10, Longbow Seven Night's attack power wasn't low after recovering.
Eleanor's flying speed was getting faster and faster. If she had Elf Wings, she could reach more than 150 miles.
The Winged Skeletons had to return to the outskirts of the Frozen Sea. It wasn't safe there anymore. The number of magical beasts in the Frozen Sea had exploded. If they went to Alchemy City to hunt them, they would obtain a large number of magic cores. They had to be careful.
Salin even asked Ainphent to help the Winged Skeletons go to the outskirts of the Frozen Sea. Ainphent's advancement would take at most a few years. If he was lucky, he could advance after the end of the year. Necromancers were more likely to increase their strength in battle. On the other hand, Elementalists were the opposite. Even if they gained some enlightenment in battle, they would have to slowly study it in order to advance.
Salin arranged for Ainphent to go to the outskirts of the Frozen Sea in hopes of increasing his advancement speed. Ainphent's two ways of summoning the undead were of great help to him. Salin had to build an undead army sooner or later. Otherwise, many ordinary soldiers would die in the fight against the Vatican. That was what Salin hated the most.
While he could ruthlessly destroy Iron Wall City, he couldn't bear to lose a single one of his soldiers.
Jason didn't have much of a reaction after describing his worries about Seriger Island to his teacher. He just smiled and said to Salin, "Do what you need to do. When necessary, I will take back Seriger Island."
Seeing that his teacher wasn't in a hurry or even angry, Salin could only leave Metatlin City with his men and head straight for the Chaos Swamp.
Phoenix was already under Salin's control. He went straight to Deep Forest Town and entered the Chaos Swamp from the Magical Beast Forest. The Magical Beast Forest had expanded several times. This was the result of Eleanor sending people here to plant all sorts of magical plants.
To Salin, there was almost no danger in the forest. The narrow forest became a barrier to the west of Phoenix. The forest was filled with towering trees, and the number of magical beasts in the forest had also increased. Salin did not fly above them. Instead, he walked through the forest and listened to Eleanor introduce the magic plants.
Eleanor was a royal elf. She had transmigrated to this plane, and most of her equipment had been destroyed. However, there were still many high-level elf plant seeds hidden in her body. These seeds were nurtured by the blood of the royal family and could last for ten thousand years. Eleanor had been reluctant to nurture her until she changed her surname to Metatlin.
From then on, the Myers Continent was also his home. Only then did Eleanor take out all kinds of seeds and cultivate them. After nurturing more magic seeds in Metatlin's southern courtyard, she spread them to various locations on the continent.
The survival ability of magic plants was extremely strong, but without the nurturing of elves, it was difficult for them to bear fruit. In the natural world, these plants would only bear fruit after thousands or even tens of thousands of years, so Eleanor was not worried that these magical plants would be taken away by others. Besides, not many people would recognize these plants. Even Magic Shooters could be said to know nothing about these plants.
The Elven Plane and the Myers Continent had been separated for too long, and the knowledge about this part had basically been lost.
Salin listened to Eleanor's introduction and felt very curious about the layout of the entire magical beast forest. According to Eleanor, if there were ten thousand elves here, it would be an indestructible line of defense. All the magic plants could be weapons of the elves.
Unfortunately, Eleanor could not summon elves to fight, and it was difficult to contact the Elven Plane and the Myers Continent. Perhaps only when the Myers Continent continued to advance and a super powerhouse appeared could the two planes be reconnected.
Of course, it was still possible to summon one or two elves. The planes would never be completely separated.
Salin did not care whether he could summon elves or not. He was only concerned about whether these magic plants could be used to forge equipment. Eleanor said somewhat reluctantly, "Salin, these plants are also living things. It would be a pity to use them to forge equipment. It would be good to plant them here as a barrier. "
Salin smiled and did not insist.
Elemental creatures were still living things, and he could also throw them into the magic furnace. However, since Eleanor did not like it, then forget it. Anyway, he still had a lot of thundercloud trees. Ancient humans had cut down a lot of them in the Giant Plane.
What Eleanor said was true. The Magical Beast Forest had already become a natural barrier. Ever since the magical plants increased in number, some adventurer teams could no longer survive in the forest. Even Deep Forest Town had been abandoned because of this. If not for Salin's support, this place would have become an empty city.
Passing through the magical beast forest, Nelis pointed to a river in front and said, "Master, do you remember this place?"
Salin nodded. Of course he remembered. This was where he had passed when he escaped. The river was full of blood-sucking insects, and these insects were highly poisonous. Back then, it was Nelis who carried him on her back to escape. The aura of the little demon made these insects retreat. Otherwise, it would have been almost impossible to cross the river here when Salin could not fly.
Back then, when he encountered the mountain monster, he almost died in the hands of that brainless monster. Now that he was back, the only danger in the Chaos Swamp for Salin was Faka.
"Someone is coming." As Salin spoke, he led Nelis and the others across the river step by step. Along the way, he released a waterspout and collected some poisonous insects in the water.
Mages collected these poisonous insects mostly for alchemy. It was the same for Salin. Now, he could already use metal to make magic equipment. Etching magic arrays required a lot of poisons.
In the distance, more than a hundred black-robed priests came. These priests were led by a guy Salin knew, and they greeted Salin.
"Picasso, it's you?"
Salin saw this priest. Although he was not very emotional, he was very emotional. When he first met Picasso, he was a sixth-level mage. Now, he was already a ninth-level mage. Obviously, he had betrayed the Cardinal Institute and joined the divine emissaries.
"Lord Salin, I'm here to welcome you." Picasso smiled, still elegant. Back then, there was a huge gap between them. Now, Salin had already walked ahead of him, but Picasso did not seem to feel anything.
Salin nodded. Picasso took out a large carriage and invited Salin into it. The carriage was pulled by two unicorns.
Faka had even bred unicorns. It seemed that there would be a new move soon. Salin judged in his heart and got into the carriage. Eleanor and Neris followed the car, but Nicholas and Zola refused to follow. Nicholas summoned two Nightmares from the Fallen Scepter. He and Zola each rode on one and followed on both sides of the carriage.
Picasso did not care. He personally drove and took Salin to the depths of the Chaos Swamp to meet Faka.
After a dozen miles, Picasso handed the carriage to his subordinates and entered the carriage himself.
"Lord Salin, there are some things that must be said here." Picasso was neither servile nor overbearing. His expression was natural.
"Speak." Salin had a deep impression of this mage. Back then, Picasso had let him go. Although Salin's own tricks were part of it, it also showed that Picasso did not have the intention to kill him.
"Lord Faka, if you say so …" Picasso said seriously, "Rhine, we can't have people from the Druidic Order anymore. Otherwise, conflict will be inevitable. If we want to divide the Cardinal Institute, this path must be controlled by Lord Faka. Lord Faka, please don't take back the northern part of Jialoulan. Take the central line of Jialoulan as the standard. The southern part will all be given to Kushui Prefecture. "
"What's the price?" Salin did not say whether he agreed or not. He only asked what price Faka was willing to pay.
"Lord Faka's people will never cross these lines. As long as the followers of the Druidic Order do not take the initiative to attack, all of Lord Faka's subordinates will not attack either."
Salin shrugged. There was no proof for this kind of thing. He would be stupid to agree.
"We can establish an alliance. Goddess Myers is not a stingy person anyway," Picasso said with a smile.
"Myers is not. I am," Salin replied seriously. The so-called goddess's will was not in his control yet. One word from him and the Druidic Order would obey.
"Then, Lord Salin, what do you plan to do?" Picasso seemed to know that Salin would refuse. He was not in a hurry and continued to ask.
Salin took out a magic map and drew a circle on it. "This is the area that Faka can control. The rest is mine."
Picasso glanced at the magic map and was a little worried. Salin generously gave half of Scotia to Faka, but Rhine and Garoulan were both taken by Salin. What's the use of this half of Skochinia for?
Seeing that Picasso was speechless, Salin smiled and said, "Picasso, Faka asked you to come because you are my old friend. Even if you say something I don't like, I may not attack you, and it won't affect the following negotiations. Yes, I understand. Faka is sincere. He is just using you to test me. Also, our discussion may not be about these issues. "
Salin's words were too direct. Picasso's face twitched, but there was nothing he could do.
"Thank you, Lord Salin. Back then, I also offended you very much. It is my luck that you do not mind." Picasso lowered his head and apologized to Salin.
"Picasso, why don't you come from the Druidic Order?" Salin suddenly said.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Lord Salin, to be honest, before I came, Lord Faka told me that you will try to recruit me. Why is that? "
"First, you are a talent. Second, you are not a fanatic. Third, I want to thank you for showing mercy and letting you live." Salin looked at Picasso with a faint smile.
"I will tell Lord Faka. If Lord Faka lets me go, I will be loyal to Your Highness." Picasso changed the way he addressed Salin. Salin understood his intention. Picasso would not join the Druidic Order, but he could work under Salin's name. This person's faith was not pure at all.
