Tang En returned to the study. There were only Fiona and Van Cleve in the room.
He went straight to the point, "Did you find the Alric Chamber of Commerce?"
"That's right."
Fiona nodded at Van Cleve, indicating for him to continue.
"Your Majesty, I was fortunate enough to not disappoint you."
Van Cleve knelt down on one knee and respectfully bowed to Tang En. Today, he was very glad that he had made the right choice.
Who would have thought that the lord of a small remote territory would become the king of the Irus Empire? Although he was only the regent, everyone knew that the true power of the country was in his hands.
"After Your Majesty gave the order that day, the intelligence network under our control began to operate. We inquired about the Alric Chamber of Commerce in various cities. Finally, yesterday, our people in the mountain city of Bein found some information about them."
"It is said that they made a business deal with the lord of Bein, Douglas Bolet. They came to Bein last night and should still be in the lord's mansion today."
"Douglas Bolet?"
Tang En's expression was strange, "Isn't that Karl's father? I didn't think that they would run to their own territory. "
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Alright, you can go now. You did well this time. You can go and receive your reward later."
Tang En waved his hand and let Van Cleve leave.
Fiona muttered, "This Alric Chamber of Commerce is really strange. They clearly bought the patent for the magic air conditioner, but they didn't obediently find a place to manufacture it. They are actually doing business."
"I think I know what they are thinking."
Tang En laughed, "Maybe they don't care about the benefits of the magic air conditioner. What they really want is the magic array technology inside the magic air conditioner."
Although the magic air conditioner only had a simple water magic array, Tang En's magic array was not ordinary. For the alchemy family of Hohnheim, the hidden alchemy knowledge was more attractive than the product itself.
"What a group of strange people."
"Go on with your work. I'll go find Carl."
Just as Tang En was about to leave, he suddenly felt an amazing power erupt. He turned his head like lightning and looked in the direction of the library in astonishment. "This is … Brian? He actually broke through to the Master Stage!? "
Fiona raised her eyebrows. "You gave him the Deep Sea Water Elemental Crystal?"
"He's too clingy. It's kind of disgusting."
"… Well, I can understand. However, without your help, he was actually able to awaken his domain and advance to the Grandmaster level. It's really not easy. "
"… No! The magic power density there is abnormally high! "
Tang En shook his head. "It should be Jean or Angus who helped him. I'll go and take a look."
Tang En had just arrived near the library when he heard Brian's hoarse voice laughing wildly. "Wahahahaha — I've finally advanced to the level of a guru! Durandon, you son of a bitch! You little bastard, just you wait! I'm here for revenge! "
"This guy is really pitiful."
Jean, who was studying the teleportation circle, raised his head and looked at Brian with pity. "He can't even beat his own son …"
Angus looked up at Jean silently. "It's better than a single dog like you who can't even beat his own son."
"What are you talking about, old bastard! Are you itching for a beating?! Aren't you also a single dog?! "
"…"
The atmosphere suddenly became silent. The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but cry.
They were both single dogs, so why hurt each other?
Angus looked at Jean with a subtle expression. "As a Master Alchemist, what kind of beauty can't I want? I'm not like someone who has to hang himself on a tree. "
Jean didn't want to be left behind and bragged. "Bah! You have the nerve to say that with that face of yours? There are many beauties among my apprentices. As long as I waved my hand, they would be willing to marry me! "
"Wow! So you built the City of Silver with the intention of getting your own apprentices! You shameless old bastard! "
"It's better than a scum like you who seduces those widowed noblewomen with the title of a hero!"
"Looks like you're really itching for a beating. How about we spar?"
"Let's spar, who's afraid of who!"
"Looks like you two have a good relationship."
The sudden voice calmed the two red-faced men down. They turned their heads and stared at Tang En with gritted teeth.
It was this guy who had won Aiguin's favor …
"Why are you looking at me?"
"What's wrong with looking at you!?"
"Looking at me … Wait? You're here? Then who helped Brian become a Master Alchemist? "
"No one? Wait, I think I saw Elijah. "
"Elijah?"
Tang En was stunned. Ten thousand alpacas ran through his mind.
F * ck you, Brian!
You used Elijah's power to become a Master Alchemist!?
Tang En was about to go in when he saw Brian and Elijah walking out of the library. Compared to the red-faced Brian, Elijah was clearly in a bad mood.
Elijah kicked the stone under her feet and said angrily, "You're so bad! Uncle Brian, you're so annoying! Elijah hates you the most! "
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, I —" Brian was about to coax Elijah when he saw Tang En. His eyes lit up. "— I'm not lying. Big Brother is here, right? You just haven't found him yet! "
"Huh? It's really Big Brother! "
Elijah cheered and ran over. Just as she was about to throw herself into Tang En's arms, she suddenly slowed down. Then, like a lady, she slowly walked over.
Tang En was stunned. What's going on today? Elijah's personality changed?
He had already opened his arms and was ready to welcome her.
"Elijah, why are you here? Shouldn't you be in class? "
"Today's class is Basic Magic Sensing. Teacher Pamela said I don't have to go."
Tang En nodded subconsciously. Indeed, the children in Ellington might need this education, but Elijah, who had a natural affinity with magic, did not need it at all. She only needed to strengthen her ability to control magic.
Elijah pouted. "Uncle Brian, he ran over and said Big Brother wanted to play hide-and-seek with me, so I came over. But I couldn't find you after looking for a long time."
Tang En glanced at Brian and understood what he was thinking.
Elijah was born with a natural affinity with magic, and she was the reincarnation of a goddess. She still could not control her instincts very well, so the magic around her was usually very dense. This characteristic was even more exaggerated when Elijah came near the Mana Source. Brian tricked Elijah to look for him near the Mana Source, and then he took advantage of this time to take the deep sea elemental crystal to break through the bottleneck.
This guy was simply …
"Hehe, Big Brother, how is it? I'm also a Grandmaster now! "
Brian clenched his fist. After reaching the Grandmaster level, there was still a faint glow of magic lingering around his body. After absorbing enough powerful magic, the abundant blood energy made his essence, qi, and spirit reach the peak state.
Speaking of this, Tang En had discovered something a long time ago. The so-called magic was very similar to the spirit energy in cultivation novels, and the blood energy used by warriors was also very similar to the form of true energy and internal energy. Aiguina's "Sword Manipulation Technique" had left a deep impression on Tang En.
This meant that whether it was a warrior or a magician, the reason why they became stronger was that the total amount of magic they could use had increased. It was just that one cultivated the internal energy, while the other cultivated the external energy.
However, before a warrior reached the Supreme level, he could not use magic. At most, he could use the blood energy to attach to his weapon and perform martial arts. After a magician reached the Supreme level, his body would become stronger, and it would be no problem for him to fight a warrior head-on. This was like the realm of Oneness of Man and Nature, the realm of returning to one's natural state.
The shackles of dwarves not being able to use magic would also be broken at this stage.
Looking at Brian's smug look, Tang En suddenly asked, "What's the effect of your awakened domain?"
"I'm not sure yet. I haven't tried it yet."
"Well, I see that you're glowing and your morale is high now. Why don't we practice?"
Tang En's face showed a very kind smile. He clenched his fist and swung his right hand. An elemental longsword tore through the air and appeared in his palm.
The smug smile on Brian's face froze, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He stepped back again and again. "No, no need, big brother. The gap between us is a little …"
"What are you talking about?"
Tang En approached Brian with a smile. "Only in actual combat can you squeeze out your potential, right? Take my sword — "
Brian turned pale with fright and shouted, "Domain — open!"
In an instant, Tang En was covered by Brian's domain. The world around him suddenly changed into a grayish-yellow space, as if he was in the middle of a sandstorm.
Tang En moved. His limbs were a little heavy, as if his whole body was tied up by heavy chains. His movement speed was much slower.
"Gravity …"
Tang En looked at Brian thoughtfully. "Let's do it. Let me see how much you've grown."
"Big brother, be careful!"
Brian shouted and jumped high with the Undying Warhammer of the King of the Mountains. The warhammer was covered in a layer of dark yellow light, and in the blink of an eye, it hit the elemental longsword.
In order to experience Brian's current strength, Tang En did not dodge. After the elemental longsword blocked the warhammer, Tang En was surprised to find that the composition of the elemental longsword was forcibly changed.
"This is … Petrification?"
"Ha!"
The warhammer was swung like the wind, and Tang En quickly blocked it. He was shocked.
In this domain, Tang En's speed was much slower, while Brian's speed was much faster. His warhammer was also imbued with the special effect of petrification, and with the Undying Warhammer of the King of the Mountains' own buff on Brian, if it was anyone else who was pulled into the domain, they would probably not be a match for him.
