The Witcher: Elemental Lords

The Edward Family.

An old man looked at a middle-aged man, and said after pondering for a moment, "There is still no news from the Northwest. Is that person still impenetrable?"

The middle-aged man nodded, "That person obtained the territory and is now developing it. Moreover, the channels for funding are very wide. They don't lack our money. We don't have any attraction to him. If there is any attraction, it might be the treasures in the vault that are fatally attractive to wizards."

To win over a wizard, the best thing is money, because money can buy many things. But if the other party doesn't lack money, then the second option is powerful resources.

The old man pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter if we can't win him over. Anyway, the First Prince has already lost his power. He used to be in charge of the Forbidden Army, but now he has lost part of the power of the Forbidden Army. Those old foxes have basically abandoned the First Prince, but they just haven't completely defected to the Sixth Prince yet. The commander of the Forbidden Army seems to have great power, but the limitations are still too high. Moreover, the Sixth Prince has won over so many Level 6 wizards. Although they were all unsuccessful in the past, they are now very active."

When the illness is cured, they will naturally be active.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "We have placed our bets on two princes. No matter who comes to power, we will not suffer."

The old man nodded, "He thinks we don't know that Yu Nuo has recovered, but we have known it for a long time. Reveal some news to him, so that we can meet in the future."

The smile on the middle-aged man's face became even richer.

In the Imperial Capital, besides the Edward Family, there are two other families. These four families control 40% of the resources in the Imperial Capital, while the Imperial Family controls another 50%. Only 10% is divided up by other nobles, which shows how powerful they are.

The four major systems of politics, business, wizardry, and martial arts are almost entirely controlled by the four major families.

The Edward Family has cast a wide net. None of these top families are easy to deal with.

George and Yu Nuo naturally didn't know these things. They were still carrying out underground activities, while the real Yu Nuo was cultivating and recovering while creating various clones to move around outside. Clones are her specialty.

…

Albis City, the City Lord's Mansion.

On the third day after Dorai finished the meeting, Dorai was leading a group of people to compile the map and determine the final route. At this moment, the guard recruited at the gate suddenly walked in and reported loudly.

"Lord City Lord, people from the Edward Family have arrived and are requesting an audience."

Dorai glanced at the wizards in front of him and said in a low voice, "This afternoon, put all the drawings together to form a master map. Once the route is determined, your task is these things. Don't worry about anything else."

After speaking, he turned and walked out the door.

Not long after, he arrived at his office. At the door, Aiton and several other people were already waiting. He glanced at them, and among them was a Level 6 wizard, and he was very young, but still twenty years older than himself.

Why did such a young genius come to Albis City?

These people seem to be from different families, because the decorations on their clothes are different.

After becoming a noble, Dorai learned a lot about the rules and regulations of some nobles, but he himself didn't pay much attention to these things.

Edward saw Dorai's arrival and put on a merchant-like smile on his face.

"Lord City Lord Dorai, I am here to buy land this time. Please open the door."

Dorai nodded and looked at him, saying, "The city needs to develop, and I welcome anyone who comes to invest. Come in."

He didn't even look at the others, and directly passed them and walked into the City Lord's Mansion.

Everyone looked at Dorai, looking at each other in dismay. This person is too arrogant, especially the Level 6 wizard, who felt even more uncomfortable.

Dorai avoided seeing him at the last banquet, and now he is ignoring him like this. It's really hateful.

But when he saw the huge storm of Albis Mountain, the young wizard endured his anger.

He came here today with a mission, so he could only endure his anger for now.

He looked at the others, their eyes unclear.

The Level 6 wizard knew that these people all had their own purposes, but they were just hanging on Aiton's name. It is estimated that they would quarrel inside later, and maybe even argue a few times.

I just hope it's not too intense.

Thinking of this, his mood calmed down again.

Entering the City Lord's Hall, Dorai waved his hand and asked people to prepare desserts, water and other things, and sat on the main seat.

At this time, Aiton took a piece of paper and handed it up, saying, "Our Edward Family wants these places, and I hope you will fulfill our request. We will pay one gold coin per square meter."

Dorai glanced at the paper and was a little surprised. The land they wanted was divided into two parts, one part was in the city, the area was not large, just a medium-sized mansion, and the other part was outside the city.

Interestingly, he had just looked at this place recently, because it was close to Albis Mountain, and there was a branch of a mineral vein below.

They have some tricks.

At this time, he sensed that the eyes of those people looking at him were not right, and the atmosphere became a little intense.

One gold coin per square meter is very generous, because this piece of unclaimed land is very large, but if they secretly mine it, the money they earn will be more than just this little bit.

He thought for a while and said, "You should know what the laws allowed by the Empire are like, what you can do, and what you can't do."

Aiton quickly put on a smile, "We will pay taxes, a lot of taxes, and this is just a little bit, it won't affect the overall situation."

Dorai raised his eyebrows, this old guy knows how to do things, so he said, "Okay."

He took the paper.

Seeing this, everyone around relaxed.

Aiton then said, "There is a second thing, but I am not the one to talk to you, but the person behind me."

He let out the wizard behind him, and then introduced, "This is a deputy head of the Imperial Mage Corps, named Hachiton, whose main focus is on biology."

It was not the Level 6 wizard, but a Level 5 wizard behind him.

At this time, the Level 5 wizard stood up and said with a rather arrogant expression, "We want to buy the Xuan Corpse Worm and Heavenly Frost Worm eggs in your hand, please part with them."

As soon as these words came out, there was a deathly silence in the hall.

At this time, Dorai also put away his usual expression, narrowed his eyes, and looked at this person solemnly.

The Xuan Corpse Worm came from Wu Shu, and the Heavenly Frost Worm came from the Sea Kingdoms. He never thought of selling them to anyone. For so many years, no one has paid attention to these two worms. Now that he has entered the sight of some people, someone is actually paying attention to these two worms.

Dorai narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous aura gradually emanated from his body. In the living room, an aura belonging to the storm gradually spread to every place.

He looked at that person and said in a rather unkind tone, "Which force are you from, who are you representing, and what is your relationship with Aiton?"

Aiton was the first to react. As a Level 6 warrior, his fighting spirit was immediately stimulated. The storm aura in the hall pressed heavily on his fighting spirit, and suddenly the whole person took two steps back, his face turning pale.
