'If I help the Lord Merlin obtain more benefits, the Lord Merlin will give me even more benefits. You are a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, if I don't slaughter you, who else would I slaughter?
'Only by squeezing you and letting the Lord Merlin obtain more benefits would I be able to negotiate with the Lord Merlin and owe him a few dozen mana crystals.
'If I help the Lord Merlin earn a hundred and fifty mana crystals, I'll be able to get rid of the few dozen mana crystals I owe him.
'As long as the Lord Merlin is happy, he'll be able to help me refine a golden potion. When the time comes, Arnaud will also advance to the Heaven Rank. Haha, our Henry Family will be the strongest force in the entire Raging Flame Battlefield.
'The other forces don't even have a single Heaven Rank powerhouse.
'Moreover, after leaving the Raging Flame Battlefield, the Lord Merlin still has the method to refine that potion.
'That's a potion that can let a Peak 9th Rank Archmage complete the Extraordinary transformation. No Artisan in the entire Odin Kingdom has ever been able to refine it.
'Even if we know the method, those people might not be able to refine it.
'Only by following the Lord Merlin can we go further and make our Henry Family even more powerful.
'It doesn't matter if we lose our territories in the Raging Flame Plane, it doesn't matter if we give them all to the Lord Merlin. Our Henry Family's ancestors didn't gather wealth for the sake of wealth, but to increase our strength.
'Dyrrhus, you fool, do you think I, a member of the Henry Family, would give up my own benefits and let you take advantage of me?
'Damnit, don't even think about it. If I don't squeeze every drop of blood out of you, it would be a disgrace to the Henry Family and a disgrace to our ancestors …'
Morgan was asking for a sky-high price, but he didn't relent. He had an expression that said he was doing it for his own good, making Dylas want to cry.
After over an hour, Morgan still didn't relent. Dyrrhus kept trying to give Morgan some benefits, but Morgan unhesitantly refused.
"We are both from the Odin Kingdom. No matter what, we are close friends who have fought side by side. How can I take your things? I have to help you.
As long as you can take out the cost of the materials, even if I have to kneel and beg the Lord Merlin, I will ask the Lord Merlin to help you concoct a potion. "
Morgan spoke righteously and sternly. He didn't feel guilty at all. He really didn't want any benefits from Dyrrhus. The benefits he wanted were all from Lin Yun …
After talking for more than an hour, Dyrrhus's complexion became darker and darker. His mouth was already dry from talking, but Morgan's price didn't decrease at all …
Dyrrhus was getting angrier and angrier, and his face was getting more and more gloomy.
Damn it, Morgan, that bastard, he's actually helping an outsider …
And that hateful Mafa Merlin, does he think I'm a fat sheep to be slaughtered?
Just wait, since a good deal doesn't work, don't blame me, I won't serve you anymore … '
"Sir Morgan, I really can't take out so many mana crystals and materials. Since there is no other way, forget it. I'll come back after I have gathered enough materials."
Dylas had a gloomy expression, his face was so dark that it almost dripped black ink. He suppressed his anger and left after saying those words.
Morgan was beaming with joy as he spoke, but he suddenly froze when he saw Dylas leave.
'Damn, did I go too far? That damned guy noticed that I was tricking him?
'Forget it, it doesn't matter. In any case, it doesn't matter if that fool noticed. In the entire Raging Flame Battlefield, only the Lord Merlin can refine that kind of golden potion.
'No, that kind of thing has never been heard of in the Odin Kingdom. In all of Noscent, only the Lord Merlin can do this.
'So what if that guy Dyrrhus noticed that I was tricking him? He'll come to me sooner or later. Haha, he wants to take advantage of Noscent's best businessman, Morgan.
'What a joke …'
Morgan proudly went to look for Lin Yun to show off his achievements. On the other side, the angrier Dyrrhus became after he left.
'That idiot Morgan is clearly a mage of the Odin Kingdom, yet he is helping the Andalusia guys to squeeze me. Just wait, I'll make you regret it sooner or later.
'And that Mafa Merlin, don't think that you're amazing just because you know the method to refine the potion.
'So what if he knows this secret? As long as I dig it out, it'll be mine …
'That Mafa Merlin still wants to use this secret to squeeze me? Don't even think about it!
250 Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts' mana crystals? 300 Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts' corpses?
'Damnit, this is extortion, a blatant extortion!
250 Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts' mana crystals can be exchanged for the best True Spirit Magic Tools in the temple. There was also a set of three first-rate True Spirit Magic Tools there.
'According to the description, as long as it's in the hands of a suitable mage, its power would be comparable to an Extraordinary Magic Tool. Even so, it's less than 300 mana crystals!
'If I had that set of Magic Tools, I would be able to display the power of a Heaven Rank powerhouse. Why would I need to beg that damned Mafa Merlin?
'Damnit, I can see that Mafa Merlin simply doesn't plan on helping me.
'I shouldn't have come here. Damned guy, just wait, don't think I don't know. If he had the method, he would have exposed it outside. There would have been no need to stay in the Raging Flame Battlefield.
'He definitely obtained the secret in the Raging Flame Battlefield …'
Dyrrhus's anger soared. He stealthily hid in the surroundings of Lin Yun 'temporary camp before quietly releasing a Shadow Devil to infiltrate the camp.
A Shadow Devil was a very peculiar lifeform. It didn't have a body and was like an illusory shadow. It relied on devouring the shadows of other lifeforms as food. The way to become powerful was to devour the shadows of powerful lifeforms.
Devouring the shadows of creatures that were weaker than it could only be used as food to sustain its survival.
This was a peculiar lifeform from Hell. Shadow Devils could only survive in places where light couldn't reach. In Noscent, only a bit of sunlight would be enough to make a Shadow Devil over Level 30 near death.
As long as a Shadow Devil under Level 30 appeared during the day, even if it wasn't directly illuminated by sunlight, it would be burned by the light reflected from some objects and would instantly dissipate.
Dyrrhus's Shadow Devil was very lucky. The spells of the Shadow Tower were focused on shadow spells, and only this kind of spell could discover a hidden Shadow Devil.
After intimidating the Umbra Demon and forcefully controlling it, it became the best method for him to use for investigation.
When Dyrrhus had just advanced to the Archmage realm, that Shadow Devil could be used to assassinate some High Mages or newly advanced Archmages.
But it became useless later on. To many powerhouses, especially those above the 5th Rank of the Archmage realm, they had already started to come in contact with the power of Laws. Even a wisp of Laws could make the Shadow Devil's assassination fail.
But although it couldn't be used to assassinate, it was the best method for scouting.
Dyrrhus controlled the Shadow Devil, and after the sun disappeared over the horizon, it followed the earth's shadows and quietly infiltrated Lin Yun 'camp.
Along the way, when he saw Xiuban or Reina, Dyrrhus hurriedly controlled the Shadow Devil to hide far away. To such a powerhouse, the Shadow Devil wouldn't be able to withstand a single attack if it was discovered.
But when he saw the fifty mages of the mage army, envy and jealousy appeared on Dyrrhus' face.
'Damned b * stard, how could Mafa Merlin's subordinates be so powerful? Apart from that Beastman and that ice-cold woman, there are also so many Archmages …'
The auras of these mages were almost fused together, and after these mages converged, the surrounding fire elements would involuntarily converge towards them. No matter what happened, they would be able to display formidable power.
'Damnit, these mages are lucky. The most important thing now is to find Mafa Merlin's secret. As long as I find the secret, I'll get rid of these mages first. With the Shadow Devil, assassinating these mages is too simple.'
Dyrrhus clenched his teeth and resisted the thought of getting rid of a few mages in passing. He then controlled the Shadow Devil to wander around the temporary camp.
But after two or three laps, he only went to some unimportant places. The more important places, or the tents, were all supported by arrays. Every tent had seven or eight kinds of probing spells enchanted on them.
Among them, there were two that could detect the existence of the Shadow Devil.
No matter how peculiar the Shadow Devil was, it was still a true lifeform, and the simplest life detection spell could detect it. There were also some mana resistance runes that the Shadow Devil couldn't pass through. As long as it touched them, it would inevitably trigger an alarm.
Dyrrhus gnashed his teeth.
'Damnit, it's just a temporary camp, yet every tent has eight kinds of probing runes enchanted on them, that's even more than the defensive spells enchanted on them.' That Mafa Merlin … '
The sky started turning gloomy and the air became oppressive. It didn't take long for thunder to echo in the sky and torrential rain to pour down like a huge hole in the sky.
Dyrrhus was lying not far from the camp, his robe completely drenched. But in order to not be discovered, Dyrrhus didn't even dare to use the most basic Mana Shield. He even forcibly interrupted some of the small spells enchanted on his robe.
After lying outside the camp for most of the night, Dyrrhus was completely drenched. His face was somewhat pale from the cold and his lips had turned blue.
'Damnit, soon, soon, there are still three tents that haven't been explored. As long as I figure out Mafa Merlin's secret, I'll be able to advance to the Heaven Rank …'
Dyrrhus controlled the Shadow Devil and had it crouch in front of every tent. As long as someone went in or out, the Shadow Devil would follow that path and sneak into the tent.
He had explored most of the tents in the camp, but he still hadn't found anything. By the time the sky brightened, he had checked two of the last three tents, but he still hadn't found anything.
'Only one tent remains, that's the tent Mafa Merlin lives in. As long as the Shadow Devil can sneak in and not be discovered, we'll definitely find out Mafa Merlin's secret!'
