Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2282 Then I go?Ugh--

"Ugh--"

Prince Aben's face changed several times, and finally let out a long and unwilling sigh from his throat, "Master Athos, you are leaving without talking about this, how can we continue talking!"

"What does His Highness mean to discuss even the strategic reserve materials labeled 208?" Xia Duo stopped and reconfirmed.

"There is something to talk about!"

"that would be great!"

Xia Duo finally determined that the other party's need for the crystallization of arcane energy was definitely not to play him again, but that there really was a certain indispensable need, otherwise he would not have made concessions to him again and again.

Of course, there will be a limit to any concessions. If he really presses on with the Ao Neng Crystal, the opponent is not the only one who chooses him.

Just like he knew that the psychic material with the number 208 was available in Imasca, the other party knew that Netheril had arcane crystals, and he would definitely try every means to obtain it.

If he pushes too much here, he will push such a big customer to others, and it is even possible that the price of Ao Neng Crystal will drop sharply because of the exposure of Mythra's characteristics.

After all, Netheril has not yet begun to discuss whether the arcane crystal should be a control material.

"His Royal Highness, let me tell you a plan, do you think it will work?"

"Master Athos, please say—"

"I will raise 1402 standard arcane energy crystals in the shortest possible time, and what I need are the preparation methods of the two energy-conducting materials labeled 598 and 208, as well as the actual material labeled [-]. What is the specific quantity? If the prince If His Highness agrees with my proposal, we will continue our discussion."

In fact, Xia Duo really hates the bottom line of penny-pinching. He will propose a plan that is acceptable to both parties according to his own needs. If the other party cannot accept it, it means that the transaction cannot continue to a large extent. down.

Of course, what he is proposing now is not the bottom line. For example, the preparation methods of the two cheap energy-conducting materials with labels 1402 and 598 are not necessary, and they can be regarded as an addition to the transaction.

Because he knew very well that even if he got the preparation method, it would be difficult to mass-produce it cheaply with the current manufacturing capacity of the Tower of Time. On the contrary, he could use the spirit-like material labeled 208 as soon as he got it, and he would immediately understand the synthesis of the Tower of Time. Power has a huge impact.

So the latter is his inevitable choice.

Xia Duo's tone was calm and his attitude was not too tough, but his will to represent the bottom line with the previous "then I go" was unmistakable. After hearing this, Prince Aben fell into the battle between heaven and man again.

It took a long time to give a response: "Master Athos, your request is indeed beyond our expectations. I need to ask the great master craftsman for instructions before I can answer, but there is one thing I can answer now, that is, about the label 1402. The preparation method of the energy-conducting material is indeed prepared for you, and it is also Imaska's greatest sincerity."

"Really?"

"Of course, that is the brainchild of most of the members of the Institute of Secret Devices who worked tirelessly on research and development."

"Then I want to thank those craftsmen. Why don't we come here first today, and we can continue talking after His Royal Highness asks the master of craftsmen for instructions."

"It can only be this way."

Prince Aben's face was a little gloomy, but he could only agree, "By the way, your Excellency asked whether the Mulan people had more meows of that kind. The following people have already replied, and I will be responsible for this later. If you need more meows, just talk to him directly, and he will take care of everything for you."

"Then thank you very much, Your Highness!"

……

Afterwards, Xia Duo left the Purple Star Tower, and when he arrived at the temporary residence, a middle-aged man in armor and a long sword was already waiting at his door.

Seeing Xia Duo coming back, the middle-aged man immediately stepped forward and introduced himself: "Master Athos, I am Guleben, who was sent by His Royal Highness Prince Aben to answer your questions and deal with meowing affairs."

"Well, His Royal Highness has already told me just now."

Then, Xia Duo invited the other party to talk in the house, but Gulben refused, saying that he should not enter Xia Duo's private territory, so Xia Duo asked the other party at the door:
"Are there more meows from the Mullans?"

"Yes, my people have already found two. If you need them, I can ask them to send them over immediately."

"Then bring it over."

It's just a few animals, and I didn't say that I would collect money before. Now Xia Duo puts it away without any psychological burden. There was a tidy click.

It seemed that there were four or five people, and soon Xia Duo saw the specific situation. It was five soldiers wearing armor similar to Guleben's, and they were running towards us two by two carrying the metal cage.

After approaching, the rest of the five who did not participate in carrying the cage immediately ran to Guleben, saluted, and then said something loudly.

Xia Duo didn't understand, but judging from the expressions on the faces of these soldiers, this Gule should not be an ordinary team leader, and his position should be higher.

In addition, knowledge of Elven language is also one of the basis for Xia Duo's judgment. How can an ordinary soldier captain have the leisure to learn an unfamiliar language from an unknown country? Only the superiors can do it.

Then Guleben asked the soldiers to lift the black cloth covering the cage, and two black cats appeared in Xiaduo's field of vision, the same as the one Jam had found before, huddled in a corner of the cage in horror, and let out a low growl .

Seeing this, Xia Duo did not appease Guleben in front of him, but sent the two black cats into the floating city together with the cages in which they were kept.

This action caused Guleben to frequently look at the top of the scepter in Xia Duo's hand, and there was even a trace of guard in his eyes.

But Xia Duo didn't care. When he was with Prince Aben, he noticed that the other party had noticed the existence of the Floating Void City, but both sides did not mention it tacitly.

The same is true now.

Although Guleben was a little on guard, he didn't have much to say, until Xia Duo continued to ask: "Is this kind of meow only found in the settlements of the Mulan people?"

"Yes, according to them, they appeared out of thin air, but this is obviously not true. After investigation, we found a dark line of connection deliberately hidden by the Mulan people, pointing to a settlement outside the city. My people have already gone to track it down. , I believe there will be results soon.”

"So, you haven't found the origin of Meow?"

"The same could be said, but we've got leads and we'll have results soon."

"That's it!"

Xia Duo couldn't help being a little disappointed, but it was hard to remind the other party. After all, the other party had most likely interrogated the Mulan people, and he couldn't find any clearer clues. How could he know?

But this cat is really a problem. There are only three cats that obviously cannot meet the needs of natural reproduction. He needs more, not just pure black, but also other colors.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo made a request to Guleben: "Notify me as soon as there is a clue about the origin of the meow, and notify me immediately if there are meows of other colors."

These two requirements are actually the same, as long as the other party finds the settlement where the Mulan people used to breed cats.
