Chapter 2888: New Institutions of the Northland Alliance
————It's a bit late, still about an hour to go~~
————
Besides the new progress in the Mithril Mine negotiations, Badijiaer's visit this time also revealed a piece of news: that Upper Families in Cormanthor have also been infiltrated by Demon Descendants, and some have even fled.
Currently, Cormanthor has not officially notified the Northland Alliance about this matter, but there have been many hints; they said they would notify the Alliance once their domestic investigation is clear, and hope that other countries will not disclose it to the outside for the time being.
Xia Duo was not surprised by this news, because many cases of Cormanthor Elves transforming into Demon Descendants could be found in the memories of the diviner Pafen, and among them were members of Upper Families.
He had long known that Pafen's disappearance would cause a huge impact, and the simultaneous flight of two Upper Families involved with Demon Descendants might just be the beginning.
It's just that he doesn't know if the Illuminati has sent new people to take over Cormanthor affairs after Pafen's disappearance; if so, perhaps they could be captured through those Demon Descendants who have not yet fled.
However, Xia Duo is not in a hurry about this; not all Demon Descendants can make up their minds to flee their familiar environment. He did indeed capture Pafen, but he took no further action, and there are always Demon Descendants who harbor wishful thinking and remain as they are.
He can let them be for a while and expose them all together when this matter can be brought to light. If it is just Demon Descendants, Xia Duo actually doesn't have a strong desire to take action.
……
As for the great benefit offered by Xia, Tuke seemed quite happy, "My friend runs an Adventurer team and has long coveted the Void Warehouse, but because it was too expensive, he could never afford it. Now he should be able to fulfill his dream."
After Tuke left, Yunfeng Manor quieted down once again. Xia Duo had just prepared to return to the Secret Ritual Chamber to continue analyzing the War Magic Artifact when he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly sent a message to Tuke—
It was just a casual move; if there are results, that is of course best, and if not, there is no need to be disappointed.
"Just now, the monitoring center detected a Time Line Fluctuation Signal. Because the signal duration was very short, the preliminary judgment is that it was in the sea area west of Illefarn."
After arranging all recent matters properly, Xia Duo then put away the Communication Magic Tool and entered the Secret Ritual Chamber with peace of mind. Next, he would complete the analysis of the War Magic Artifact, and he did not intend for his avatar to come out.
"Yes."
Tuke had only just left, and the reply was naturally not slow; it was given within a few seconds of Xia Duo's message.
"Ambassador Enjier."
When Xia Duo received the reply, he did not put away the Communication Magic Tool but continued to send messages. This time, it was to Laidun, who was far away in the Territory, asking the other party to assemble a team to come to Evereska to set up the New Wind Art Exhibition, and at the same time, to investigate the market to provide a reference for the specific business projects of the Friendship Tower.
"It cannot, the duration was too short. It can only be preliminarily judged, and the margin of error might be nearly seven hundred kilometers. Also, because the duration was too short, we believe this might be a probe by the Demon Descendants."
"It doesn't matter, the policy for him is valid long-term, and the Time Tower Void Warehouse Chamber of Commerce will not easily lower prices again. I believe there will always be people who want to try something new."
……
Hearing such a reply, Tiao was obviously not very satisfied, and he continued to ask: "Can it not be precisely located?"
"Strictly speaking, this is the latest research result from the Time-Related Magic Research Laboratory, which can monitor Time Line Fluctuations in an area of over five thousand kilometers centered on Evereska.
What exactly the monitoring object of this newly established monitoring center was, the relevant personnel who received the alarm naturally knew in their hearts. Precisely because they knew, they reacted almost immediately, dropped everything at hand, and hurried to the monitoring center to ask about the specific situation.
It is a pity that even with a discount, the usage fee of the Void Warehouse is very expensive for individuals. Coupled with the Netherese Mage's habitual emphasis on privacy, unless it is a deep discount, it is very difficult to promote in Netheril.
……
As a fellow human, Dumu naturally knew that this was Ambassador Tiao giving him a chance to perform, so he briefly introduced the operating mechanism of the monitoring center and the content of the alarm just now—
But occasionally releasing one or two channels is not impossible; perhaps this kind of secret promotion can bring in more users!
After the representatives of the major countries greeted each other, they turned their eyes to the three Supervisors of the Demon Descendant Intelligence Research Laboratory in unison. Tiao spoke first:
A monitoring center that had only recently been established suddenly issued an alarm. The alarm level was very high; besides reaching the three major Supervisors of the Demon Descendant Intelligence Research Laboratory, it would also be synchronized to the representatives of the five major countries, including Netheril.
Xia Duo did not place all his hopes on Tuke's friend. Xia Duo had also learned a little about that friend; he was just an ordinary Adventurer team, borrowing some tasks for going out to investigate, collect, and explore.
"Ambassador Tiao."
In addition, Xia Duo also gave new instructions to Aoruipusi, asking the other party to spread the word and invite tenders for the Friendship Tower. The internal space of the Friendship Tower is so large that Great Xia Territory is not prepared to occupy it all, but will release most of it through bidding, which is also in line with the original intention of diversification.
Regarding this, Xia Duo just nodded and was not prepared to interfere too much with the other party, only reminding him, "Have you been to the Time Tower Chamber of Commerce here? If your friend needs a Void Warehouse, you can take him there to handle the procedures. I will take the responsibility to give him a 50% discount, but it is limited to two years."
A 50% discount is still profitable. Currently, the number of Void Warehouse users is growing steadily. Xia Duo does not want to miss any opportunity to increase users, but he cannot give discounts at will to the outside world. Using it to maintain a friendship with Tuke is not bad.
"Supervisor Dumu, come and introduce the current situation."
……
"That's good! If he can introduce other customers to the Time Tower Void Warehouse, there will be a kickback for each one introduced, and the customers he introduces will have at least a 10% discount depending on the length of the purchase."
"When you go back tomorrow, take Kelake and the others with you."
Of course, that team is considered a veteran team in Netheril, but in a Northland hub city like Evereska, it is indeed very ordinary.
Before Badijiaer left, Xia Duo learned about the delivery ceremony of the Friendship Tower from Aiboke, and then asked: "Are you going back to the Tower of Time next, or will you play here for a few more days?"
At least not many Adventurer teams had purchased the Time Tower's Void Warehouse before; this time, it might open up a brand new market!
Tuke did not mind becoming a promoter and agreed readily, "I will tell my friend, but I cannot guarantee the final result."
This was actually a strategy launched by the Time Tower Void Warehouse in the early stages of promotion in Evereska to open up the market. Later, in order to avoid conflicts with other chambers of commerce operating Void Warehouses, they voluntarily stopped it after acquiring the first batch of customers.
"This range can already cover all the Northland Alliance territories except Aiboke and the Underdark!
"Evereska is good, but it is not my home after all. I plan to see my friend again tonight and leave tomorrow morning," Tuke said very calmly.
"Then I will go first."
"Hmm."
Northland Alliance Headquarters, Demon Descendant Intelligence Research Laboratory.
