Chapter 108 Fusion of the Arken Gem (Merge and add chapter content, 10K chapter, please subscribe)
Half an hour later, in the hall on the top floor of the Chamber of Commerce, Li De and the eight shadows who were teleported back gathered together.

"There are several things to talk about in this meeting, and the first one is strategy adjustment." Li De then explained his positioning of the Impossible City.

After hearing that the Dark Tower led by Elizabeth had become independent and became a new organization, the women present did not show any envy.

After all, in their view, this was a recognition of Elizabeth's abilities by their master.

"Let's talk about the second point. I will take out two trillion rings of gold and inject it into the Siyue Chamber of Commerce to accelerate the expansion of the chamber of commerce. Gamma, are these funds enough to support the expansion?" Li De asked.

"Master, this amount of money is beyond my imagination." Gamma said with a shocked expression.

"It doesn't matter if there are more. After all, the more funds we have, the more we can use money to buy time for development when we expand. In addition, when it comes to banking business, gold reserves are the basis for issuing banknotes." Li De waved his hand and said.

"The master's wisdom is beyond our reach." Gamma said immediately.

"Okay, there's no need to say this kind of thing in the future. Just express your feelings in your heart." Li De waved his hand shamelessly.

After handing over the gold to Gama, Li De released eight piles of jewelry.

"These are all figurine gifts for you. Elizabeth also has some. In addition, I also gave her a separate slave contract. If you need it, you can ask me for it, but you must have sufficient reasons." Li De said slowly.

"Shadow, what about the individual slave contracts?" Alpha couldn't help but ask.

"It's like this, I have made another plan for Elizabeth. Let's see if there is a chance to realize it." Reed then told him about his plan to usurp the Kingdom of Oriana.

"So that's how it is! If it can be implemented smoothly, it might be a better choice than the Impossible City." Alpha had no objection to Reed's desire to replace Rose Oriana.

After all, once the usurpation of the country is successful, and the Shadow Court eliminates the Diabolos Cult in the future, the sisters will at least have a country where they can live freely.

"As for this plan, let's wait until Elizabeth completes the most critical step. There are more important things to do in the Shadow Courtyard right now." Reed said immediately.

"Master, what's going on?" Beta asked curiously.

"That is, I want to expand a guard team with a full number of knights in a short period of time." After Reed finished speaking, he talked about the plan to launch Claire.

"My lord, it is easy to recruit people, but..." Gama couldn't help but speak, but was interrupted by Li De before he was halfway through.

"I know that there are only more than 600 people in the Shadow Courtyard at present. Except for Delta, I don't plan to transfer anyone else to join the guard team." Reed had already sensed what Gamma wanted to say, and he just shook his head and said.

Although the Shadow Court was established only a short time ago, many of the demon-possessed people rescued so far had previously held high status.

After all, the bloodlines of the three great heroes basically continue among the nobles.

Therefore, these girls have basically received a good education, and with a little training they can serve as the backbone to support the Siyue Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, Li De had no intention of recruiting these girls to serve as combat personnel.

"Only let Delta join the guard?" Alpha couldn't help but frown after hearing this. After all, everyone in the Shadow Courtyard knew what Delta's brain was.

"I transferred Delta because I want to form a guard team composed entirely of orcs." Li De immediately expressed his considerations.

"The current land utilization rate in the ancient capital of Alexandria is too low, so I want to use this family expansion plan to move all the orc tribes within the expansion range to the base. With a population, the members who farm the land can be freed up, so that suitable personnel can participate in the expansion of the Chamber of Commerce.

Another thing is to select warriors from these tribes, so that we can form a combat-capable guard team. With the ties of family and absolute force suppression, I don't believe these people will defect. As for the lack of combat effectiveness, we can use animal blood potions to improve it."

After Li De finished speaking, everyone understood what Li De was thinking.

"Shadow, this guard team may not be able to form in a short period of time!" Alpha said in a deep voice after thinking about it.

And what she meant was very simple, that is, there is a possibility of not being able to catch up with the blood moon event.

After all, a team that was hastily assembled might not be able to exert much combat power.

In addition, if you want to gather a full number of orc warriors to form a knight order, it is not possible to achieve it by simply surrendering a few tribes.

No matter what, the ethnic group corresponding to the nine hundred orc warriors is not a small number, and its number is at least between eight thousand and ten thousand.

Although there is more than enough territory in the ancient capital of Alexandria, there will definitely be a lot of other trivial matters.

It would be impossible to withdraw personnel if these orcs were not allowed to settle down.

Even if they are forcibly withdrawn, if Lambda is not allowed to train for a period of time, these orcs will only fight on their own and will be difficult to control.

"Don't worry about that. I don't plan to use them until this guard team is integrated. But the migration must be prepared and implemented now. We don't have to achieve the goal in one go, but we must complete it step by step. As for the blood moon incident mentioned earlier, we can just select 200 people from the existing members to form a temporary guard team. With this thing, no one will get hurt." Li De said as he took out a sarcophagus from the magic bag.

"My Lord, what is this? It gives off a very strong ominous aura!" Victoria, who was assigned the sacred magic, couldn't help but ask.

"The Aztec gold coin is a treasure cursed by the gods." Li De said as he stretched out his hand and pushed it.

The lid of the sarcophagus was pushed aside by telekinesis, revealing the evil-looking gold coin in the sarcophagus.

"Master, what kind of curse have the gods put on these gold coins?" Beta looked at the Aztec gold coins curiously and asked Li De.

"Anyone who takes out the gold coins from the sarcophagus will be cursed to become immortal. Such a person will not feel anything no matter what he eats, drinks or does. He will suffer from hunger, thirst and unsatisfied desires every day." When Li De said this, he also told the girls the origin of the Aztec gold coins.

"Master, how can we lift the curse?" Ita had already walked to the sarcophagus and asked while studying it.

"Just drop your own blood on a gold coin that has been taken out, but the curse will only be lifted after all the Aztec gold coins that have been taken out have been returned to the sarcophagus. In other words, the amount of blood debt that has been taken out must be repaid with blood." Li De answered slowly.

"Blood debt must be repaid with blood? This small price is indeed within an acceptable range." Ipsilon could not help but nodded.

After all, it's a good deal no matter how you look at it, just to experience the feeling of being unsatisfied and spend a few drops of blood to gain immortality on the battlefield.

"Alpha, you are in charge of keeping this thing. Every time you use it, the gold coins that are taken out must be used to repay the blood debt with blood. These gold coins will be kept by the remaining personnel until the mission is completed, and then they will be put back into the sarcophagus." Li De instructed.

"I understand, Shadow!" Alpha said, then closed the sarcophagus and put it into his magic bag.

"Next is about Delta." When Reed said this, he took out the Arken gem he had obtained before from the storage space.

"What a beautiful gem!" Gamma couldn't help but exclaimed.

"The Heart of the Mountains, the Arken Gem, and another gain from the last mission." After Li De made a brief introduction, he did not delay any further and exchanged for a fusion card.

[I have scanned the item Arken Gem. Can I fuse it? 】

【whether】

Li De chose yes.

【Please specify the fusion object!】

[Alpha/Gamma/Beta/Delta/Ipsilon/Zeta/Eta/Victoria]

Except for Li De who used the ore, all other personnel were displayed.

Delta!
The next second, the Aken Gemstone that was transformed into a stream of light by the fusion card and shot into Delta's body began to fuse.

Although there was no visible phenomenon like the Alpha and Gamma before, everyone present felt an unusual heaviness.

However, this feeling of heaviness soon disappeared as the fusion was completed.

Looking at Delta who still looked a little confused, the joy on Reed's face was beyond words.

Yes, Li De was quite happy at this moment.

Because the feeling he had after obtaining the Arken Gem was correct. This special gem indeed brought the fusionist abilities that even Li De could not imagine.

After the Delta fusion was completed, a total of two abilities were obtained. The first one was bloodline talent, which was not bad!

In fact, it is just that the fusion card is restricted, otherwise it would not be indestructible, but directly immortal.

As for how hard this Vajra is, Li De felt that it was at least harder than diamond. After all, the Arken Gem also has to maintain its dignity.

The second is the bloodline ability to move mountains!
Think about it, if even mountains can be moved, wouldn't ordinary ground be even easier to control?

Looking at the fact that Delta's race has changed from orcs to children of the earth, it is not difficult to know that Delta's bloodline is now pure earth bloodline.

In addition, after possessing the blood of the earth, Reed no longer has to worry about Delta's lifespan.

Although the ability value panel did not display it, Reed could feel that this bloodline was more advanced than Elizabeth's blood demon bloodline, and its lifespan had also become longer.

As for how long, Reed couldn't give a number, but judging from the feedback from the power of the contract, Delta's lifespan should be longer than Elizabeth's.

Now, as long as Delta's simple-minded mind is compensated, Delta's shortcomings will no longer exist.

And there are countless smart women in the universe.

It depends on who you meet first in the mission, and who deserves the bad luck.

"Oh, Delta feels like he's gotten stronger!" Delta couldn't help but yelled as he clenched his fists.

"Yes, it has definitely become stronger, but let's put the test aside. I won't leave tonight." Reed said to Delta.

"Then I want to give birth to a baby for the boss!" Delta said and rushed over with shining eyes.

What follows is a restricted-level show where one person fights eight people all night long, then from dawn to dark and then back to dawn again.

On the morning of the third day, Li Decai walked out of the Siyue Chamber of Commerce.

The battle on the field lasted for one day and two nights, and Reed vented most of the firepower accumulated in the world of The Lord of the Rings.

The bad thing about fire dragons is that they are very angry every day, and once it accumulates, you have to take some time to vent it!
After stretching with a satisfied expression, Li De walked towards the palace.

Now that the plan has changed, I have to go to Alexia's place as well.

After a while, Reed appeared on the balcony of Alexia's study, then entered the study and met her.

"Why are you here?" Because she had something to learn today, Alexia had not gone to practice yet.

"I have something to tell you." Li De said straight to the point.

"What's the matter?" Alexia asked quickly.

"As for my sister, I hope you can transfer her relationship from the Knights Templar to you in the next two days." Reed said.

"Why are you so anxious suddenly? Didn't we agree to do it after the Martial God Festival?" Alexia asked Li De with some confusion.

"My sister may not have time to participate in the Martial God Festival." Li De shook his head and said.

"Not participating in the Martial God Festival? Why?" Alexia was very surprised to hear that.

"She has been busy preparing for the expansion of the territory recently. She will then lead people to the Misty Mountains and go to war with the orc tribe bordering our territory." Li De said without hiding anything.

"Declare a war with the orcs?!" Alexia couldn't help but wonder, because she hadn't heard any news about the kingdom going to war with the orcs recently.

"Alexia, this war was initiated by our family ourselves. It will not go through the kingdom, nor does it require the support of the kingdom." Li De explained casually.

"But that's not right. How did your family convince the local knights stationed there?" Alexia was still puzzled.

Because she had never heard that the Kageno family had private soldiers, and if not, the only army in the Barony of Kageno would be the knights directly under the kingdom.

"Since we have said that we don't need the kingdom's support, the Knights will naturally not be mobilized." Reed shook his head and said.

"If we don't use the Knights, will it be just the two of you?" Alexia asked again.

Of course, Alexia absolutely believes in Li De's strength.

The main reason she asked this was because she was curious.

"Not really. This time, my sister is leading the pioneering war. As for the participants in this war, they are part of the guard team I borrowed from the Siyue Chamber of Commerce." Li De said slowly.

"Are you still related to the Siyue Chamber of Commerce?" Alexia looked at Li De with some surprise this time.

"There is cooperation, but we'll talk about it later. What I want to say is that once the war starts, sister will be busy for a long time." Li De said to Alexia.

"That is to say, you may not be able to come back after school starts, or even after the Martial God Festival. That's how you understand it, right?" Alexia asked.

"Yeah!" Li De nodded.

"What about the blood moon? What about the Impossible City?" Alexia continued to ask.

"Don't worry, we will definitely catch up, or it will be finished before this. After all, the family's goal this time is just to expand the territory to the level of a viscountship." Li De said slowly.

As soon as Alexia heard what Li De said, she knew what Baron Kageno was planning.

Because the area was directly expanded to the Viscount's territory, the taxes paid each year thereafter would have to be calculated based on the Viscount's territory.

But if there are no minerals in the developed land, especially in the Misty Mountains, the forest wasteland will not produce anything for a while.

Therefore, it is necessary to maintain the barony, at least the tax pressure will be much less.

This is also the result Li De came to after consideration. As I said before, it is not that you cannot be promoted to a higher rank because you don’t have money, but that you cannot use the money too ostentatiously even if you have money.

"As for Wudu City, my sister will lead the guard team of Siyue Chamber of Commerce there later." Li De continued.

"Are the vampires in the Crimson Tower very powerful?" Alexia couldn't help but frown and asked Li De.

"How is that possible? Those guards were mobilized not to attack the Crimson Tower, but to deal with the rampaging zombies during the blood moon. Although those zombies are not strong, their numbers will probably increase to a terrifying number during the blood moon." Li De shook his head and said.

"Why is there such a sudden increase?" Alexia couldn't help but frown when she heard this. After all, it was a well-known fact that there were a small number of zombies in the city.

"I have read such a document, which records this special phenomenon during the blood moon. The specific situation will only be understood at that time." Li De did not explain, after all, it was quite troublesome to explain.

"Is that so? I understand. I will go talk to my sister about this matter tonight. Can you wait for me at the villa tomorrow?" Alexia asked Li De with watery eyes.

"Okay!" After saying that, Li De disappeared in front of Alexia.

"Ancient artifacts?" Alexia asked tentatively.

"Yes! I'll go first!" After saying that, Li De left the palace.

Alexia did not stay in the study, but got up and went to Alice's office.

"Sister Alice, it's been a long time since I last greeted you!" Alexia was the first to greet when she arrived at the office.

Alice was quite surprised to see her sister Alexia coming. After all, she did not experience the kidnapping incident in the original book, and Alexia is still in a cold war period with Alice.

Even though the previous knot in her heart had been untied, Alexia was busy practicing and had no time to ease the relationship with her sister Alice.

Of course, Alexia was holding her breath, wanting to take advantage of this Martial God Festival to show off her enhanced strength. Alexia originally planned to get good results, or stand directly in front of Sister Alice at the Martial God Festival, and then ease the relationship.

But I didn’t expect that Li De’s plan would not be as fast as the changes. The summer vacation hasn’t even ended yet, but the plan discussed before the summer vacation has changed drastically.

Of course, Alexia did not object to this change of plan. In fact, if it were inconvenient for her to participate, she would also like to increase her practical experience.

"Alexia, you are finally willing to talk to me." Alice's eyes were filled with tears and seemed to be about to crystallize.

"Sister Alice, I was just too busy before." Alexia saw her sister's expression and her tone immediately became comforting.

"I know, Alexia has been working very hard!" Alice said with tears of joy after walking out from behind the desk and hugging Alexia in her arms.

"I'm sorry, sister. I was too willful before." Alexia spoke excitedly.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Alice hugged Alexia and shook her head. The two sisters were immersed in the warm family atmosphere at this moment.

After a while, the two sisters separated.

"I came to see my elder sister this time because I want to ask a favor." Alexia immediately stated the purpose of her visit.

"What's the matter?" Alice asked curiously.

"I want to recruit a personal guard!" Alexia did not hide anything and went straight to the point.

"Who have you taken a fancy to?" Alice asked directly after hearing this. After all, those who have the right of inheritance in the royal family are qualified to form their own personal guards.

Of course, being affiliated with Alexia meant that the salaries and benefits of the guards would have to be borne by Alexia herself.

Therefore, there have been many members of the royal family who have formed their own guards in the past, but the number of people was not large.

Moreover, the selection of personnel for this personal guard is more about winning over faction members rather than actual guard selection.

In other words, those who can become members of the Royal Guard are fully worthy of the word confidant.

That's why Alice was curious. After all, Alexia's taste was extremely picky.

Didn’t you see that she caused a childish farce because of her dissatisfaction with a marriage candidate before?

In addition, Alice did not receive any information about Alexia's close relationship with anyone.

As for the rumored boyfriend, Alice didn't pay much attention to him at all, because she didn't think there was any chance that Reed would become Alexia's fiancé.

As for the reason, it is nothing more than the disparity in status.

"Claire Kageno, an apprentice of the Knights Templar!" Alexia said calmly.

"Claire Cageno?!" Alice never expected that her sister would choose this person.

As mentioned before, the selection of the royal guards is more about deepening relationships with faction members than guards.

But in this case, Claire Kagenau is not suitable at all.

One is that Baron Kageno's family is not a member of the central faction, and the other is that even though Claire has the first right of inheritance, he is only a baron.

You have to know that in the aristocratic circle that Alexia has come into contact with, dukes are common, marquises are everywhere, and earls are as numerous as dogs.

If even the Earl is not qualified, how can the Baron have the qualifications to speak?
However, at such social gatherings, if Alexia encounters any provocation, the guards must stand up.

How can a baron's heir, who doesn't even have the qualifications to speak, stand in front of Alexia and defend her?

"I'm very optimistic about her!" Alexia insisted.

"Claire Kageno is indeed talented, but Alexia, her identity..." Alice couldn't go on when she said this, because Alexia was staring at her with an unusually firm look.

"So, sister, are you going to reject me?" Alexia asked seriously.

"Oh" Hearing this, Alice immediately covered her forehead with her hands.

She dared to guarantee that if she refused, the relationship, which had finally been eased, would instantly drop to below freezing point again.

Another thing is that if the noble members belonging to the royal faction knew that Alexia chose Claire as her personal guard, I am afraid no one would stand up to oppose it.

In fact, Alice had no intention of forming a personal guard, otherwise her priority in selecting personal guards would be higher than Alexia in the faction.

Who can blame the two sisters for belonging to the same faction, but Alexia is only the second princess and has the second right of inheritance.

In addition, Alice’s current character is the strongest magic swordsman in the kingdom. Not to mention her own faction, even other factions are not optimistic that Alexia can inherit the throne.

So Alexia gave up on winning over people from her own faction. In the eyes of the faction affiliated with the royal family, that was sensible. After all, the eldest princess Alice was indeed very outstanding.

In addition, no one would think that Alexia chose Claire to develop her network, but more people would think that she was looking for a powerful guard.

After all, Claire performed very well in the previous two Martial God Festivals, so her future is definitely promising.

But Alice always felt that Alexia's motivation for choosing Claire was a little strange, but she couldn't put her finger on it for the moment.

But at this moment she knew one thing, that is, she couldn't refuse.

"I understand! As long as Claire Kageno agrees, I have no objection." Alice took a deep breath and said helplessly.

"Thank you, sister. It's almost evening and we haven't had dinner together for a long time." Alexia continued.

"Indeed, I'm a little hungry too." Erza nodded and left the study with Alexia.

The next day, in a villa somewhere in the royal capital, Alexia lay in Li De's arms with a blush of satisfaction.

"Hey, Sid, you're so awesome!" Alexia couldn't help but speak as she drew circles on Reed's chest with her fingers.

"Alexia, I can be even better." Reed responded while reaching his hand into the abyss of sin again.

"I know, but I can't bear it. By the way, what's the matter with your cooperation with the Siyue Chamber of Commerce?" Alexia took Li De's hand away and quickly changed the subject.

"To put it simply, we want territory and they want people!" Li De replied briefly.

"Need people? Is the Siyue Chamber of Commerce doing slave business?" Alexia couldn't help but frowned when she heard that.

"What are you thinking about? The Siyue Chamber of Commerce has some special products that other chambers of commerce do not have. You should know this." Li De asked Alexia.

"Yes, such as chocolate and coffee. I have never heard of them before." Alexia nodded, and then seemed to think of something.

"Wait, are they capturing orcs to plant for them?" Alexia continued to ask.

"That's almost what I mean, but not completely. There is another one, which is to select warriors from the conquered tribal groups to form a guard team. I heard from the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce that there are already plans to expand outward. So in order to ensure the future transportation of goods, a powerful guard team is needed." Li De said slowly.

"Hey, Sid, how are you so familiar with the Siyue Chamber of Commerce?" Alexia asked curiously.

"During the time when the kingdom was being cleansed, I once saved Luna Katarina's life." Reed answered casually.

"So that's how it is!" Alexia's eyes looked dim after hearing that, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"Alexia, Luna promised me that as long as you are willing to lend your name to the Siyue Chamber of Commerce, and then when the guard team grows stronger, as long as you need it, you can mobilize a knight guard team to serve you through your sister. In addition, every year, the Chamber of Commerce will provide you with a political donation." Li De looked at Alexia and said.

"Then do you want me to lend her the name?" Alexia looked at Li De and asked seriously.

"Of course I hope so. After all, I also have a share in the Chamber of Commerce. Other chambers of commerce in the kingdom, such as the Kada Chamber of Commerce, are not as disciplined as imagined. The Siyue Chamber of Commerce, which monopolizes many special commodities, is a thorn in their eyes, so they need a legitimate guard team to protect their interests." Li De said slowly.

"Then I wonder how much political donations I can get every year?" Alexia asked with a smile at Li De.

"One thousand gold rings per year. If you really need money, I can get you an interest-free loan of ten thousand gold rings with no repayment period. Of course, the trade-off is that you won't be able to borrow again before the repayment." Li De said slowly.

"Wow, what a generous deal!" Alexia couldn't help but sigh when she heard that.

After all, one thousand gold rings means a credit limit of 100 million, not to mention that you can borrow a credit limit of 10 billion when needed.

The annual pension she received from the royal family was only 720 pieces. After taking her expenses into account, she had basically no money left in a year.

After all, social consumption is unavoidable. You have to know that every formal banquet will cost at least dozens or hundreds of gold nuns. After all, you can't let the outside world think that the banquet hosted by the second princess is shabby.

Although the number of formal banquets held each year is very limited, small gatherings such as tea parties are countless.

And most of the time you have to do it. After all, someone has invited you, and even if you don't have to pay for it, you can't just not return the invitation.

In addition, when there are birthday parties or wedding parties, gifts are always necessary.

If it weren't for the support of the industry allocated by the royal family, that little pension alone would not be enough.

Especially compared with the eldest princess Alice, who is the first heir, Alexia's property is undoubtedly much more shabby.

"At least you have to live up to your status as the second in line of succession," Li De said slowly.

"I have to say that this amount of money really impressed me, but I am concerned about the strength of a knightly order." Alexia said bluntly.

"Not one knightly order, but two knightly orders." Reed shook his head and said.

"Didn't you just say that there was only one order of knights?" Alexia's voice couldn't help but rise a few notches at this moment.

"There is indeed only one on the Siyue Chamber of Commerce side, but this guard team of 900 people will not be concentrated in the Kingdom of Midgar, but also in other kingdoms, so you don't have to worry too much about the large number of guards on the Midgar Kingdom side." Li De said slowly.

"What about the other one?" Alexia asked immediately.

"In the lawless city of the future!" Li De did not hide it.

"Impossible City?! I wonder which tower's ruler is related to you? Could it be the Pure White Tower?" Alexia's tone suddenly became inexplicable when she heard this.

"It is true that I saved that fox, but I did not cooperate with her. The one who cooperated with me was Elizabeth, the new ruler of the Dark Tower. The general situation was this." Reed talked about the plan after the blood moon.

"Hey, Sid, I find that you are really popular with girls. Everyone is willing to cooperate with you and let you take a share." Alexia couldn't help but say softly.

"There's nothing I can do. It's their fault that they were in danger back then. In fact, I've saved more than just them. I even saved Princess Rose Oriana once." Reed spread his hands and said.

"Rose Auriana?! Are you sure?" Alexia asked in shock.

"I'm sure, but I was wearing a hood when I rescued her. But as long as I mention it, she will definitely remember it. There is no doubt about that." Li De said confidently.

"Why?" Alexia asked in confusion.

"You also know the artistic atmosphere of the Kingdom of Oriana. If Princess Rose forgets this matter, will she choose to pick up the sword and come to Midgar to study?" Reed gave an explanation that Alexia could accept.

"Sid, I think I need to think about it carefully. I believe you also know that if I lend my name to these two women, it will be equivalent to sending a certain signal to the outside world." Alexia said after rubbing her eyebrows with her hands.

"Alexia, I don't think you have many choices. You know that the Knights cannot be trusted. And the people who work with me are at least more trustworthy than Geno. In addition, specific signals are just signals. As long as you don't have this intention, don't worry that we will push you forward from behind.

After all, neither Luna nor Elizabeth are nobles, nor are they even from Midgar. They are just my allies who I deliberately brought in to increase your status and voice. Only by letting others know the power you can use can you decide your marriage yourself. "Li De analyzed.

"Sid, I will seriously consider it! By the way, Sid, if I agree, what conditions can the Dark Tower offer?" After Alexia nodded seriously, she started to ask about something that was almost overlooked.

"They won't give you money, but you can specify three names every year. In addition, they also engage in intelligence business. When you need it, you can also consult my sister or me. It's also three times a year, and it doesn't accumulate." Li De replied indifferently.

"Three names, three opportunities for intelligence consultation?" Alexia nodded after hearing this. Of course she knew what the three names were.

In fact, with the political donations provided by the Siyue Chamber of Commerce, Alexia's need for money was reduced a lot.

Although the Dark Tower didn't pay her, they were willing to send people to help her solve the problem, which was a very appropriate supplement for her.

After all, it was only after being threatened by Geno that Alexia realized that the interior of the Kingdom of Midgar was extremely unfamiliar to her.

It is difficult for Alexia to distinguish between friends and foes now. After all, Geno is the deputy commander of the knights belonging to the royal faction.

Even he dared to be disrespectful to members of the royal family and attacked himself, the second in line to the throne. Alexia couldn't help but feel chilled by what was revealed behind this.

It is precisely because of this sense of urgency that she wants to become stronger immediately, and is even willing to sacrifice her body to win over Li De.

After all, his power has grown, so if anything unexpected happens, at least he will have room to maneuver.

It was because Li De saw this point that he dared to propose the deal so openly.

After all, putting the transaction out in the open is much more sincere than those who are unclear about it.

It's good if everyone benefits from each other.

"By the way, speaking of missing persons, the college's vice-president Ruslan Barnett also disappeared before school started." Alexia said this while looking at Li De.

"I did it!" Li De did not deny it.

"Is there something wrong with him?" Alexia couldn't help but ask.

"Regarding the vice president, actually I met him by chance. But he happened to be trying to seize an ancient artifact from someone else, and I was also interested, so I took action." Li De explained slowly.

"What ancient artifacts?" Alexia asked curiously.

"The Eye of Greed, after recording one's own magic information, once used, it can absorb the magic of people within a certain range, making them unable to use magic, thus turning them into lambs to be slaughtered." Li De said without hiding anything.

"The Eye of Greed, I seem to have heard of it. Is this ancient artifact in your hands now?" Alexia asked again.

"No, I gave it to the Siyue Chamber of Commerce. This thing is useless to me. After all, its effect is useless to me. People who are not as strong as me can end the battle with one sword, so they don't need it. But those who are as strong as me, such as the magic dragon in the Misty Mountains, have too much magic power, and the Eye of Greed can't have any effect at all." Li De spread his hands and said.

Although this was completely different from the reason why he gave the Eye of Greed to Ita, the result was not false at all.

"You are really generous. An ancient artifact with this kind of effect can directly determine the outcome of a small battlefield." Alexia said with a sour tone.

After all, she had seen Gama, and her obvious feminine charm was obvious. She knew without hesitation that she had definitely been nourished by a man.

If there wasn't a close relationship, how could the Siyue Chamber of Commerce be so supportive of Baron Kageno's family?

Can the guard team that protects the safety of the Chamber of Commerce's materials be loaned out casually? The president's face is full of shrewdness.

Therefore, Alexia was basically certain that the president was most likely one of the women of the man next to her.

As for why it is one of them, needless to say, the new leader of the dark tower is most likely the other one, or even more unknown ones.

To be honest, would Alexia mind?
