Chapter 241: Insulting Me with Money

~14 min read 2,651 words

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya's eyes were injured by a magic backlash when she was casting a forbidden spell. At that time, she had not been upgraded to an Arcane Mage for long.

Magic backlash is a very serious accident. Lightly, it causes injury; heavily, it causes the body to explode and die. At the cost of damaging her eyes, she carried it through.

But this didn't seem to be a bad thing. Although she was blind, Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya's perception of magic elements became more acute, and her perception of magic power changes became more three-dimensional and image-based.

This made her understanding of magic advance by leaps and bounds, eventually breaking through the boundary between arcane and truth, becoming a Truth Mage, and even awakening the forbidden magic domain known as the nemesis of mages, achieving the title of Elemental Dead Zone Truth Mage God.

"Maybe it's because I'm blind that I'm more sensitive to elements," this was Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya's summary.

So now, the students she taught had to cover their eyes during the apprenticeship period.

However, there are pros and cons. The blind eyes also became an obstacle to her strength growth, unable to climb to a higher level, and there would be some very embarrassing problems.

She now perceives things through elemental fluctuations. Any object basically has an elemental reaction. For example, the elf's body contains a large amount of water elements. In her perception, these elves or humans are all groups of walking water elements.

Earth, wind, fire, light... various elements composed the colorful world in her perception. However, there was a very embarrassing problem. Perceiving through elements lacks many details. For example, the face is dirty, the skirt is broken, stepped on shit...

So one could often see a Truth powerhouse walking by dirty. Because of her status, others didn't dare to remind her, and even thought it was her unique style.

Later, she only floated when walking, and when going out, she would wipe it with water elements first and then air-dry it, regardless of whether her body was clean or dirty, wash it first.

In fact, this kind of small embarrassment in life is easy to solve. Just find a few attendants. Finding or marrying a few male elves to take care of her daily life is completely reasonable given her status.

But her personality didn't like things walking around her. She didn't even keep pets, let alone tolerate male elves, so she could only pay more attention to herself.

If her eyes could be cured, these inconveniences in life could be solved, especially seven or eight hundred years later, she wouldn't be unable to take care of herself.

However, treating her eyes was not an easy task. Even the Church of Light, which was famous for its healing ability, could regenerate severed limbs but couldn't cure blind eyes.

The elves themselves were also very good at healing, but all the elves good at healing had seen her and indicated they were powerless.

"Magic backlash caused large-scale necrosis of the nerves behind your eyeballs. Just restoring the eyeballs is useless. You must connect the nerves and the eyeballs. But the nerves here are related to the brain. Any operation is very dangerous for you, and it is easy to turn you into an idiot. So, unless you can make this part of the nerves live, it is impossible to cure it."

The previous Great Druid concluded for her.

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya also thought that her eye treatment was hopeless. What way could make the necrotic nerves related to the brain live?

Until this period of time, she stayed in Meishen City and discovered the tooth whitening treatment package...

"Your beauty tooth package can restore the nerves of decayed and necrotic teeth and make teeth grow out. It must also be able to treat my eyes. As long as you can cure my eyes, you will get the allegiance of a Truth powerhouse."

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya said confidently. She was indeed very confident. She believed that no one could refuse this condition, no one could refuse the allegiance of a Truth powerhouse.

Although the value of a Truth powerhouse cannot be measured by money, there are still some guys willing to earn some extra money, such as Diluni of the Star Republic. The price for him to take action once is 500,000 magic crystals, and he doesn't take jobs of a harmful nature.

For example, spending money to ask him to escort goods, protect the gold master, or help "add fire" when forging, or help you change the terrain when building a dam, etc., are all okay, but asking him to kill people and break cities is not.

It can be seen that a Truth powerhouse taking action once is worth at least 500,000 magic crystals, and how much is the loyalty of a Truth powerhouse worth?

Priceless.

If it is the loyalty of an "elf" Truth powerhouse, how much is it worth?

Priceless, multiplied by 16 times. Because elves have a long lifespan, the peak period of magic power is at least 16 times that of human Truth Mages. Typically, my life is longer than yours, so it's valuable.

In many human knight novels, the strongest inheritance of a family is an ancestral elf...

Making a little friend she knew try to trick her every day: "Come and hang out with me, I'll give you a high salary."

Of course, things like treatment and allegiance are actually excuses. The real reason, she told Gai La De at the beginning: "Elves cannot be without the Tree of Life. Use every means to grab it. If you can't grab it, build a good relationship. Wait for a certain day in the future, the whole race will surrender to it and pray for its protection."

This "it"... Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya subconsciously looked at the top of Ang's head. Originally there should be a flower pot there, and the little sapling would climb the edge of the pot and look out. Seeing something she didn't know, she would let the other party grow—

Because she looked at the top of Ang's head, she was distracted. Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya heard a sentence but thought she heard it wrong, and asked subconsciously: "What?!"

"Do you know how to farm?" Ang repeated his words.

"Farm?" Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya was stunned. Why would he ask this question? She wasn't a druid, so she shook her head immediately.

"Don't want." Ang responded immediately. If you don't know how to farm, I don't want you.

"Ah?! I..." Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya showed an expression of doubting life, because she didn't know how to farm, so Ang rejected the allegiance of a Truth powerhouse? Did she hear it wrong?

Could it be that Truth powerhouses now have to learn how to farm before they can be popular in the job market?

Nigris was dumbfounded, but it didn't oppose Ang's decision. Even if she knew how to farm, Nigris didn't want to get too involved with this elf, because this elf always gave it a very dangerous feeling.

However, such a blunt refusal was not good. Nigris hurriedly smoothed things over and asked: "Hehe, he's talking nonsense. By the way, I haven't asked what kind of mage you are?"

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya was indeed stunned. Hearing Nigris's words, she responded very cooperatively: "Natural Arcane."

"Oh, so it's the Arcane system. That's a pity. We don't need this kind of expertise for the time being. You go back and wait for the news. As soon as we need it, we will contact you immediately," Nigris said with a smile.

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya didn't know how to react. However, if she had mixed in the mercenary guild of humans, she would know that this was a very hypocritical polite remark.

After being stunned for a long time, Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya understood what it meant. She was rejected because she was a mage of the Natural Arcane system, and her expertise didn't match, so the other party rejected the allegiance of a Truth powerhouse?

How can this be? Although she wasn't sincerely wanting to pledge allegiance, if you don't accept me, I can't stay by the side of the little God of Life.

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya was anxious immediately: "What kind of expertise do you need? I know a little bit about every expertise."

Know everything? The tone is so big? Even she, the dignified God of Knowledge, wouldn't dare to say such words.

Thinking about it, Nigris picked a more difficult expertise that they also happened to need: "We need an Arcane Mage of the Spatial system."

Spatial magic is almost the most difficult to learn because space is invisible. It is not like various elemental magic. There are a bunch of elements there. As long as you perceive their existence, you can master elemental magic.

What is space? It is an abstract concept.

Some people can get lost while walking, and their sense of direction is extremely poor. And direction is the basic element that constitutes space. People with poor sense of direction can never learn spatial magic.

Nigris didn't believe that an Arcane Mage could also practice the most difficult spatial magic?

Sure enough, Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya showed a disappointed expression on her face: "I don't know spatial magic."

"Then I can't help you." Nigris spread its hands, with a helpless expression.

"But I know an Arcane Mage of the Spatial system. I will call her over to help. Can you let me pledge allegiance?" After finishing, without waiting for Nigris to refuse, she tilted her head, and a fluctuation shot out from her brow.

Nigris's brow scales wrinkled. There is such an operation?

I've heard of substitute exams and substitutes, but I've never heard of substitute job applications. Even if the Arcane Mage of the Spatial system comes, what I want is an Arcane Mage, not you.

Now it can be sure that this elf has impure motives. Okay, let's see what kind of tricks you are playing.

Nigris was ready to watch, and its little claws wanted to be crossed, but after gesturing a few times, it was too short to cross, so it could only be crossed on its waist.

One second, two seconds, ten seconds, a minute passed...

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya looked at the sky strangely and said embarrassedly: "Maybe... maybe something happened and she was delayed."

Just as she wanted to send another message, a series of screams suddenly came from the sky: "Ah... ah... ah ah ah..."

A figure flickered and fell from the sky, disappeared after falling a distance, and appeared in another place, flickering.

Ang and Nigris looked at the sky, and a feeling arose in their hearts at the same time: This scene... so familiar.

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya covered her face helplessly, but this situation was not the first time it happened. She skillfully extended her Mage Hand to support the figure that was about to fall to the ground.

"Hoo..." The disheveled figure fell in front of Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya, sighed and explained: "Scared me to death. My positioning was accurate, but I forgot the height. It was too high, and my legs were soft."

After Nigris saw the other party's appearance clearly, it exclaimed: "It's you!?"

The spatial female mage turned her head, looked at Ang and the others suspiciously, and asked hesitantly: "Who are you..."

Nigris didn't speak, directly let Ang take out the spatial bag she threw away, and said: "You dropped this. We borrowed a few scrolls. I hope you don't mind."

"Huh, it's my spatial bag. How is it in your... ah!"

The spatial female mage quickly remembered where she dropped it and also realized what the other party had seen. Her face turned red to the back of her neck. She didn't even want the spatial bag and swished behind Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya.

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya's gaze wandered suspiciously between the female mage and Ang and the Brass Dragon, wanting to see something, but unfortunately, her eyes were blind, so naturally, she couldn't see anything.

After the female mage's emotions calmed down a bit, Nigris asked again: "Your spatial bag."

"Don't want it, throw it away." The female mage was so shy that she didn't dare to raise her head, hiding in Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya's arms and saying muffledly.

"Throwing it away is too wasteful. If you don't want it, I'll empty it and use it to hold bird droppings. Recently, the transport capacity of bird droppings hasn't been able to keep up, and the fertility of the land has dropped a lot," Nigris said.

The female mage's face was no longer red, and she wasn't shy anymore. She ran over angrily to grab the spatial bag and glared at Nigris fiercely.

Being glared at inexplicably, Nigris was confused. You don't want it anyway, can't you use it for transport? What's there to be angry about?

Using spatial magic tools as transport tools is reasonable in the first place, but spatial magic tools are too expensive, and many people can't afford them, let alone are willing to use them to transport fertilizer. But isn't this just the one that is not wanted?

With this interlude, the spatial female mage ignored them and turned to ask Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya in a low voice: "Great God, what are you looking for me for?"

When calling Great God, the female mage's eyes were shining with little stars, full of worship. The one in front of her was a Truth Mage God who taught her a lot of magic knowledge.

Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya smiled: "I hope to pledge allegiance to Lord Ang, but because the expertise doesn't match, they don't want Arcane Mages, but want Arcane-level Spatial Mages, so I thought of you, hoping you can come and help me strive for this opportunity."

With Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya's words, the spatial female mage's eyes widened, as if she had seen a ghost.

Pulling Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya to the side, after some whispering, confirming that Ai Si Duo Chancellor Chancellor Liya was not possessed, not under mental magic, not invaded by souls, and not threatened by anyone, the spatial female mage said embarrassedly:

"But... but I have no time recently. Things that require an Arcane Spatial Mage to solve shouldn't be very simple things, right?"

Nigris nodded: "Not simple. We need to search for the location of a shattered space in the dimensional space through a fuzzy coordinate and enter it."

The spatial female mage rolled her eyes: "Your wording is so professional, you must also know the difficulty of this kind of thing. Do you want me to die?"

Nigris hurriedly added: "There are dimensional beasts."

The spatial female mage was greatly encouraged and couldn't help but become serious: "There are dimensional beasts? That doesn't count as sending to death, but the risk is still too great. No, no, I'm still young, haven't lived enough, don't want to take risks."

"Not getting the reward if you don't finish is called risk. Getting the reward first whether you finish or not is not called risk, that's called guarantee. Tell me, what guarantee do you need? We can give money first," Nigris tempted.

The spatial female mage glanced at it impolitely and said disdainfully: "Insulting me with money? Am I such a shallow person? Even if you move a magic crystal mountain in front of me, I won't even look at it." ===== CHAPTER 242 =====
