You call this the mastermind?

Chapter 72 Don’t lose the big picture for the small

When a gambler thinks he will win, will he give up this bet?

Definitely not.

Even if you don't have to be sure of winning, thinking that there is a high probability of winning is enough to make many people go bankrupt, or even sell everything they have and borrow money everywhere, just to play a big game.

The goblin is in this state now.

So when Melen asked for more money, the goblin went to sell everything he had, raised money everywhere, and even started "borrowing money" -

It seems to have certain authority in this ruined library.

It is obviously a "gatekeeper". After tinkering with it and signing a few things that look like contracts, it actually greatly tampered with the prices of some items in Melen's exchange list!

So Melen was not only able to exchange for the inheritance of the leader of the Dawn Knights, but also got the inheritance of the professor of potion science at the Royal Wizard Academy!

However, correspondingly, the contract drawn up by the goblin for him has become much more stringent.

Not only did the term change from fifty years to until death, but after his death, all his life's learning and memory will belong to the goblin.

At the same time, before the end of the month, Melen cannot transfer the ownership of the Book of Endless Fraud and the Wandering God Boots on his feet.

When he finally signs the contract and returns here, the book and boots will belong to the goblin.

Melen, who has won a lot of benefits, doesn't think he will sign the contract, especially since he has confirmed his fate several times before when he was urinating, so he doesn't bother to bargain with it.

The goblin, who has lost everything and seems to be in debt, firmly believes that Melen must sign the contract at the end of the month, otherwise he will die.

I don't know where it gets its confidence from.

So both of them are happy and each of them is happy.

But when Melen officially began to accept the inherited memory, he couldn't be happy anymore.

There is no other reason, these memories are too many!

Although they are all about the inheritance of skills, and there are no fragments of daily life, the two are elites in their respective fields, and their lifelong learning is really complicated.

If Melen had not been very familiar with memory infusion and had a high tolerance, and if his physical fitness and the third hand had not had an amplifying effect on this aspect, he would have probably been knocked unconscious.

But even if he did not faint, Melen also unconsciously had a nosebleed, and his head was dizzy and his body was weak.

It was just like the state when he first obtained the master-level psychic technique from Mrs. Chelsea and awakened the third hand.

The goblin was very gloating about this, but more surprised, as if he did not expect Melen to be so resistant.

What surprised it even more was that such a weak Melen could actually pick up the heavy book of endless fraud, and seemed to be unaffected by it - it was originally waiting to see Melen laugh!

But after being surprised, it was even happier.

Melen's good physical fitness proves that he can live long.

Living long, after signing the contract soon, it will have more free time!

"Don't be unwilling to come here just for the sake of face, even if you are about to die."

When Melen left, it warned him: "It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. Although it's a bit boring here, it's not too boring. At least you will have endless books to read."

Melen didn't respond. His mind was in a mess because of the two inheritances, and he didn't want to pay attention to this idiot.

After putting away the treasure and packing a large pile of rags and sundries obtained from "cracking" the magic pocket in a linen bag at the beginning.

He identified the direction, staggered with the bag on his back and walked to another road corresponding to the way he came, and saw a deep well in a certain area of ​​this road.

He jumped down, and the feeling he had experienced once came again. Then Melen felt his legs soften and collapsed on the metal surface of the basement of the Mixed Blood Association.

The old examiner sitting at the door of the basement was originally reading a book.

Seeing Melen suddenly appear and so weak, he was shocked and hurried forward to support him.

"What's wrong with you, Egg?"

"Where are you hurt? Is it serious?"

"Nothing."

The weak Melen was confused at the moment. He was biting off more than he could chew.

But on the other hand, he vaguely felt that his third hand seemed to be "growing" slowly because of this.

"It's just that there are too many memories, and I can't bear it..."

"Is that so."

The old examiner was relieved when he heard it, "This situation is normal, it will be fine slowly. You bear it first, I will take you back to rest."

As he said, he held Melen's arm and was about to help him up.

In the end, he didn't move.

The book of endless deception had been put into Melen's magic pocket. It was very heavy. Normal people might not be able to lift it with all their strength, let alone carry it with them.

In other words, Melen's physical fitness was strong, so he could be "fine".

But the old examiner didn't have that kind of strength.

However, he didn't doubt that this was Melen's own problem, and thought it was because of the bag of sundries that Melen pressed under him.

After this delay, Melen had already gotten up.

Because he had explained where he got the bag of things from before, he was not going to deal with the pile of things himself.

After handing it over to the old examiner, Melen returned to his bedroom in a daze.

Then he fell on the bed with a bang, almost crushing the four-poster bed!

Merlen ignored this. There were too many memories surging in his mind. He couldn't wait to take a nap to rest.

But before going to bed, he thought of something else.

So Mellen got up from the bed with difficulty and went to the bathroom to confirm his attribute panel and destiny again.

There were 4 points left in the gray destiny. He had used 18 points of green destiny to exchange for three hours of luck before. One point was 10 minutes, and now there were 11 points left.

There was no change in the skill column.

Obviously, this was because the "quality" of this memory inheritance was not high. Many places were hazy and could not be directly called by Mellen's mind. Instead, there was an invisible barrier.

But this did not prevent Mellen from knowing how to practice and digest them thoroughly.

Then, the most important thing was that his destiny for the next month was uneventful.

So Mellen fell asleep peacefully.

It was amazing that he, who thought he had lost the right to dream, actually started dreaming again.

But this time, he dreamed of all kinds of skills.

…    Here, Mellen was dreaming.

Over there, something he did before entering the abandoned library encountered a little setback.

Or rather, the brown-haired girl Fanny, who had interviewed him before, encountered some problems in publishing the news -

In the Kevin incident, Egg Wilson made a lot of headlines.

Especially in the eyes of the participants of the banquet, his performance was very wonderful, standing in the open and playing with the enemy, just like acting in a drama.

So many newspapers became interested in him and inquired about him through various channels that night.

But afterwards, except for the Wizard Education Newspaper to which Fanny belonged, no other newspapers came to interview.

The reason is very simple. The most prominent Felix family privately greeted these newspapers.

The purpose is nothing more than not wanting Egg to show up and steal Kevin's limelight - at least he cannot appear when Kevin is in the limelight recently.

The Felix family has a strong influence, and few newspapers will not give them face.

The newspaper that could not care about the Felix family was too far away from Graham City and out of reach.

The Wizard Education Newspaper was able to send two intern reporters to interview thanks to Fanny, the second generation of the family elders who were all over the publishing industry, who "argued with reason".

And they took a different approach and proposed to use the duel as the interview topic instead of Kevin, so they barely had this opportunity.

Yes, opportunity.

Although personal interest is an important part of wanting to interview, another part of the reason is that Egg has a strong interview value.

After all, the Kevin incident was done by two people, not Kevin himself.

Even if the Felix family wants to downplay Egg's presence in it, they can't completely eliminate him.

So the more widely and hotter the Kevin incident is publicized, the stronger the public's implicit curiosity about another existence in the incident will be.

In this case, an intern reporter who can get Egg's first exclusive interview before other reporters will definitely get a lot of benefits.

At least there is no problem with the transfer.

That's why she brought her fiancé along.

However, she now realized that this opportunity was actually very small and not enough to fully satisfy her "ambition".

"This interview is indeed good, but it takes up too much space."

The editor-in-chief sent a message through the Book of Secret Words.

"Especially the first paragraph, it even records such skin care problems... What were you thinking at the time?"

"I think it's great!"

Sitting in the study at home, Fanny raised her eyebrows and wrote a scribbled text on the Book of Secrets:

"This can not only reflect Egg's private life, but also serve as a small popular science. I have tried it, and the cucumber slices are great!"

"But we are the Wizard Education Newspaper, not the Wizard Fashion Star."

The other party reminded her: "And the section I gave you can't accommodate your manuscript at all."

"Then change to a larger section?"

"It should be possible in a month, but don't think about it now."

"Why?"

"..."

"Why do you say?"

The other party was a little impatient: "What's wrong with you? Are you crazy about becoming a regular employee?"

The editor-in-chief is actually an elder in Fanny's family, so there is no scruple when talking about some things.

"Since the Felix family has already given us a heads-up, we are already at our limit by playing with the edge. What, do you really want to offend them?"

"It shouldn't be a problem if it's only published in one of our newspapers?" Fanny was very unwilling to do so.

A month later, the public's curiosity had long since disappeared, so what use would it be?

As a result, the other party replied bluntly: "It's because we published it in one of our newspapers that there is a big problem!"

"..."

Fanny had nothing to say, but her face was full of depression.

Egger's interview was very valuable, but in this matter, it was completely insignificant.

After all, if you still ignore the Felix family's head-on response, it is not a simple value issue, but a matter of not giving them face.

In the wizarding world, individuals can ignore their face, but families cannot.

Because it involves family deterrence and influence.

So, giving a small section and playing with the theme of duel is already the limit.

No one would want to give more, because it is totally not worth it.

"Just wait patiently."

Under the melancholy gaze of the brown-haired girl, the editor sent a few words in a gentle tone.

"In one month or two months, when Kevin has enough limelight, your manuscript will naturally be published."

"But don't hold out any hope. Since that Egger is unwilling to leave the Mixed-blood Association, he will inevitably be treated coldly. No matter how good your manuscript is, you won't be able to stir up much trouble and will always be suppressed."

"So during this period, you should prepare for your admission to Fort St. Grant with peace of mind. As expected, you will be assigned to Oak College, where Kevin's mother happens to be a professor and deputy dean."

"Don't you have a good relationship with Kevin's fiancée? If you maintain this relationship well, if you can have in-depth cooperation with the Felix family and the Chelsea family, what news can't you get?"

“Take a long-term view and don’t lose the big for the small.”

The editor-in-chief didn't know when he said these words seriously.

The interview transcript, which he judged would not be released until one or two months later, was destined to be suppressed.

It has overcome many obstacles and is directly in front of the Minister of Magic, Alzak Cornelu.
