"Neris, you have to know how to calculate. I seem to have a lot of high-level magic cores, but these things are consumables and are hard to buy. Once I advance to Magic Shooter, ordinary magic cores will be useless in battle. "Salin put the magic cores into his demonic bracelet and comforted Neris.
Neris's tears fell uncontrollably. Salin wiped them away and said, "You want to summon a demon and organize a demon army?"
"To protect Master."
"Neris, you have to know how to calculate. Go back to Metatlin City and my underground space. You can summon demons at a lower price. The mid-level magic cores produced by the Frozen Sea can be accumulated in quantity to open the summoning magic array. "
"I want to … give you a surprise."
"Surprise? It was probably a shock. Forget it, it's already happened. It's meaningless to say anything more. Don't hide such things from me in the future. If … you're eaten by the summoned demons, I'll regret it. " Salin put his hand on Neris's head and gently ruffled her hair. He felt that she was a living person, not a demon.
"I know, Master." Neris secretly smiled. She suddenly said, "Winged Skeleton is also doing something behind your back. Master must be careful."
"Hmph, don't provoke me. That's why I'm giving you a good lesson!" Although Salin was reprimanding, he was helpless.
"It's true. I need the coordinates of the Demonic Plane to summon demons. He told me these coordinates. And he even used the entire Demonic Plane to blackmail me and made me help him salvage many sunken ships. "
Neris said everything she could in one go.
"Let him be busy, Neris. Winged Skeleton is more loyal than you. However, since you're a demon, why do I need your loyalty? Don't mind my indulgence of him. He was hurt by Daniel. "
Neris was very depressed when she saw that Salin was so perceptive. She pressed her face against Salin's chest and wiped the tears she had just shed on Salin's magic robe. Then, she jumped down from the tree.
Salin stroked the wet place on his chest and relaxed. In any case, he wouldn't really blame Neris for anything. He had deceived her, an underage little demon. In fact, Neris was much more pitiful than him. Just the thought of being imprisoned for tens of thousands of years was terrifying.
Inside the magic chariot, Rex didn't sleep. She stared at Shika for a long time before she said, "I heard that battle priests can become totem priests in the end, and then nature priests. Almost all Gaugass will listen to the orders of nature priests."
"I see. Your Highness knows a lot about Caucasians."
"You're a totem priest now, right?"
"Sort of."
"Not even twenty." Rex sighed.
"The princess is also very young."
"Can you tell me why?"
"Why?"
"I'm afraid you're the only Caucasian in the past thousand years who could become a Nature Priest. Nature Priests can't form a family, so why did they choose Salin? "
Shika smiled. Her eyes were dark and deep, as though the entire night sky was condensed in them, and there were even traces of starlight.
"Your Highness, you're overthinking things. The Caucasians were simple and direct. I like Salin, so I can't let others take advantage of me. If I want something, I'll take it. As for the future, people have to return to nature. Salin became a level-nine Magic Shooter, but he can only live for twelve hundred years. If I'm lucky enough to become a nature priest, I can't live more than a thousand years. It looks ten times longer than others, but it's still too short. When you're alive, you have to fight for it. You can't have any regrets. "
Shika's words were as direct as her fighting style. Rex choked. Shika didn't think about the future at all. Like all Caucasians, she lived according to her own heart.
The most infuriating thing was that Shika definitely meant something when she said she couldn't let others take advantage of her.
It wasn't that Rex hadn't thought about her relationship with Salin. In her eyes, it wasn't unacceptable if she could marry Salin. Although Salin had a huge force behind him, he was not an ambitious person. If no one forced him, Salin would be like Shika, living freely and not thinking about tomorrow.
If she had to build a dynasty in the future, she wouldn't mind letting Salin be the emperor. There were very few people like that in this world.
Originally, Rex wasn't in a rush to think about this, but Shika left first, making her feel like she was abandoned. She hadn't experienced this before, so she thought she was really jealous of Shika. Today, when she asked directly, she realized that she liked Salin, but it wasn't the kind of unforgettable love.
She liked him because Salin was worthy of her, and he was a Mage who had the same style as her.
Shika didn't steal Salin away, but she was Salin's first woman. No one could replace her position in Salin's heart.
It didn't matter at first, but now Rex felt like she'd lost, lost to a Caucasian.
When she first met Shika, she was so beautiful that even Rex was surprised. Her hair was still messy, and if Salin hadn't forced her, she might not have showered so often.
"Princess, it's not impossible if you want to marry Salin."
"Why would I marry him!" Rex's voice was a little louder. Even he was a little confused about why he was so agitated.
"It's better if you don't marry him." Shika giggled. Rex felt defeated again.
"I still have too many things to do, maybe not even in a thousand years." Rex sighed again and changed the topic.
"Me too. Anyway, no matter how many things I do, it won't stop me from having children with Salin," Shika said bluntly. Rex felt helpless for the first time.
Shika's straightforward style was not something that the nobles could deal with.
Just then, Nelis opened the door and walked over. Rex was shocked. "Why aren't you in that car!"
She guessed that the four women were demons. Letting the four demons be with his Mage made Rex's heart beat faster. If the four demons went crazy, his Mage would be finished.
"Princess, don't worry. The Mages are very safe." Nelis was very respectful, but in fact, she had no concept of respect. She just liked the disguise of humans. Unlike Shika, Nelis liked petty tricks and plots. As for whether it would work, she didn't care. In the end, she still had to rely on teeth and claws to solve the problem.
The problem was, no matter how respectful and obedient she was, Rex wasn't stupid enough to think that he could directly order Nelis. Her attitude had become a tease to Rex.
But Rex couldn't do anything about her. She was Salin's woman. As long as she didn't attack Rex, Rex could only use the same perfunctory way to deal with her attitude.
When Salin was around, Rex didn't have such a strong feeling. Today, Salin went out to avoid arousing suspicion. Only then did she realize that the two women around Salin were not easy to deal with.
Salin didn't know that Shika and Nelis had upset Rex. There was another reason why he hid out — to practice magic. It was better to practice on the magic chariot. But he had been studying the mageweath on the badge and the thunder dragon. All mageweaths could actually be expressed in words. The meaning of magic words was to translate a certain power so that humans could control it with spiritual power.
Even Rex couldn't let her know the secret of the badge.
The stupidest way was to use Figaro's magic formula to decipher those mageweaths. But double calculation was thousands of times more difficult. First, he had to study the meaning of the mageweath. Then, he had to describe the power of the mageweath in magic language. He had to verify it again and again. Even if Salin's calculation speed was thousands of times faster than others, he would still die of exhaustion. Even when he died of exhaustion, he wouldn't be able to decipher one percent of the power in the mageweath.
This was even more difficult than creating a new spell. Otherwise, with so many magical beasts in the world, humans could totally study countless spells based on different mageweaths.
Salin couldn't help but envy Neris. Neris had only swallowed a few Thunder Dragon eggs, and she had obtained a portion of the Thunder Dragon's abilities. Although she couldn't release electricity to attack from afar, it was equivalent to wearing an armor that was immune to elemental magic.
Salin could only take another path. He signed a soul contract with the 24 thunder dragons. Whenever he was free, he would experience the soul waves when the thunder dragons released electricity. The so-called mental power was also related to the soul. After familiarizing himself with the soul waves, he could simulate some of the secrets of the thunder dragons releasing lightning.
Even if he couldn't study a spell that released lightning, he could create a piece of equipment that could be controlled, similar to his family badge. But this equipment must be able to release lightning on its own, unlike the badge, which had to be fully charged before releasing lightning attacks.
Even if Salin's thunder dragons grew up, it would still take about a month to replenish the badge's energy.
Inside Myers' necklace, the 24 thunder dragons swam happily. Salin threw all the demonic insects that Nelis had given him into the necklace. The corpses of the demonic insects also contained the special energy of the Demonic Plane, which could be considered a supplement for the thunder dragons. Time passed very quickly in the space of the necklace. Once the thunder dragons ate a large amount of food, they would grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Each of the twenty-four lightning dragons was more than two meters long. Golden mageweaths flickered on their slightly transparent skin. Salin not only had to feed them, but he also had to constantly add restoration water to the necklace and release wind magic to replenish the gas in the water, so that the thunder dragons wouldn't suffocate to death.
No matter how big the space of the necklace was, because of the flow of time, the consumption of air in the water was extremely fast.
