Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 297 Island Owner
The patter of rain pounded in front of the window sill, making a crisp popping sound.

Alexey Island does not look gloomy under the clouds.

On the contrary, when those houses with red roofs and white walls are connected together, they are like beautiful paintings depicting the appearance of a peaceful city-state.

The pirates in jackets and the nobles who were gradually regaining their energy were neatly dressed, and there was a rare lack of chaos and noise.

From time to time, umbrellas are held up, and pirates with hearty laughter run freely on the bluestone road.

Wei En stood by the window, quietly watching such a peaceful and peaceful scene.

With his current strength, even without using his senses, he could clearly see the appearance of people entering and exiting under the high wall.

And if the mental perception is diffused, it will not have the same temperature and color as what is seen with the naked eye, and there will only be cold picture feedback.

From this, he couldn't help but think that it turns out that the flesh and blood body is emotional, while spiritual consciousness is only rational.

"It wouldn't be bad if the world had always been like this." Wei En murmured to himself.

Wei En sighed softly. He encountered many accidents, and I believe he will face more in the future...

Wayne made arrangements one by one.

That terrifying monster will burn your eyes even if you just look directly at it. Even the "epidemic doctor" Youan cannot cure the pain and erosion of its origin.

But surprise is always the main theme.

But after all, it was a country opened by an ancient god when he ascended to the throne. If you think about it carefully, it is much larger than the ten-second limit of a real man brought by boiling blood.

"Come in."

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

The peace and tranquility that people want exists only in fantasy.

Except for the first four spell rune brands, he will give priority to fusing the most suitable spells with the rest.

As a son of his origin, his breathing meditation at this moment is constantly increasing Wei En's mental power and physical strength.

"Good afternoon, Wizard Wayne." Ubli raised his hand in greeting, and glanced to the side from time to time, where he saw a smooth pink back, which was very dazzling.

Although in that kingdom of death, he has always been a bystander.

"What about us?"

"Master~"

Dang, Dang Dang...

Old Jack just nodded lightly: "Good afternoon."

The slight Gonzalez language is a short representative modal particle, and the ghost seems to read his mind and hovers around his head a few times.

"cornerstone."

"it is good!"

Mitra walked in with a smile on her face, and did not choose to hide it because her relationship with Wei En was exposed. There was even a bit of pride in her tone, as if she was showing off her sovereignty.

The rainy night in the city of Custer came to mind.

It was a rainy night when it was raining heavily and the clouds were gathering, but the red moon was still high.

"Understood, Baba!" The ghost grinned and nodded playfully.

Drivers are always the most enthusiastic about competing for favor.

Wei En glanced back, thinking of the previous prompt on the panel, and said calmly: "After integrating the Soul Devouring Spell, the next one is the Corpse Explosion Spell!"

"Good afternoon, Master."

The soul-devouring rune brand between the eyebrows also shines faintly. Looking at the progress of the light, there is still 19/20 to complete the source fusion...

Chi Gui and the Secret Master looked at each other and spoke at the same time.

The reason why I chose Shadow Step instead of Boiling Blood...

"call……"

Wei En didn't know either, but he had an intuition that Shadow Step would be more helpful to him in the future.

"Quick Shadow Step, spiritual shield."

Old Jack and Ubley were accompanied by him.

"Suck……"

All I can say is that this world is too weird.

Wei En looked at the three of them one by one, leaned back on the chair, crossed his hands, and asked calmly: "You three are together, do you have anything to say?"

Oh?
Wei En looked towards the door, his mental perception reflecting the people outside. He was a little surprised that Mitra did not come alone this time.

"What about me?"

"It's really a monster that disfigures the scenery..."

The messy sound of raindrops was like drum beats, beating out an unsounding sonata, but what followed was - the deep sea monster Rasim!

Because of Brand's mechanical puppet system, he didn't encounter many battles, so when he could talk to Wei En, he never missed it.

"I just received a piece of news. I think it is necessary to report it to you." Mitra looked around and spoke first.

"whats the matter?"

"Black Jack's place has just contacted us again."

Blackjack?
Wayne looked at her calmly, "Go on."

"He asked me to inform you that many people on the Black Pearl have been asking about the [Explosive Sniper Rifle] in the past two days. If anyone finds you, please don't expose yourself."

"Ok?"

Wayne frowned, "Isn't he the first mate of the Black Pearl?"

Why bother to remind me?
Somewhat weird...

"That's what I asked too," Mitra nodded repeatedly and continued, "He said that after investigation, among the pirates who came to question him, intelligence officers installed by the Araniga were found."

"That's why I came to inform you..."

"Oh."

Wei En was convinced that the [Explosive Sniper Rifle] might have been exposed during the last encounter between the Bekli and Araniga.

It’s just that Mitra was specifically asked to remind...

"What else did he say?"

"You can't hide it from the master," Mitra said with a look of admiration and excitement on his face: "He asked me to propose a deal to you in the name of the Black Pearl."

"About [Explosive Sniper Rifle]?"

"Yes."

A smile appeared on Wayne's lips. Just when he was about to build Alexei Island, someone sent money. "Tell me, how much does he want this time?"

"A thousand handfuls."

"How much?!" Wei En sat upright suddenly, suspecting that he heard wrongly.

"Master, it's a thousand [explosion sniper rifles]!" Mitra nodded with certainty.

"Do you know how much an [explosion sniper rifle] costs in gold pounds?"

"Ten thousand gold pounds."

Wei En raised his eyebrows, are you serious?
Now that Mitra knows the specific numbers, it means that Black Jack does have this plan.

But, he, the Black Pearl has so many gold pounds?
Not sure...

Taking the four continents, even excluding the Western Continent, there are still nobles from three continents who have to pay protection fees for the Black Pearl...

"How to pay the deposit?"

"No deposit."

Wei En frowned but said nothing, waiting to hear her explanation.

"Black Jack said," Mitra stopped being pretentious and said, "Ask if you are willing to take over Alexei Island. The Black Pearl has discussed it and decided to use this island as payment for the [Explosive Sniper Rifle] Deposit."

Alexei Island?
Wei En opened his mouth. He had just planned to use this island as a temporary base when Black Jack proposed such a deal?

Is it such a coincidence?
"It's a surprise, isn't it, Master?" Mitra said with a smile on her face, and said excitedly: "As long as you agree, the entire Alexey Island is yours. Don't you just plan to stay here temporarily? ?”

"Yeah, I'm very surprised." Wei En rubbed his eyebrows.

The surprise was a surprise...but since he had the idea of ​​occupying Alexey Island, he never thought about giving money to the Black Pearl.

With his strength and his status as the captain of the Leonard, it would certainly be more cost-effective to grab it openly.

"Wizard Wayne, you don't seem to think so?" Ubli saw his expression and asked doubtfully.

"No, it's a pretty good deal, and it's just a deposit."

Wei En shook his head. Just make a deposit. With the cost of the [Explosion Sniper Rifle], a thousand sniper rifles can only buy one-fifth of the trading area at most.

"Then did he tell you when the remaining gold pounds will arrive?"

"Well..." Mitra was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "I forgot to ask. I just got the news and came over to report to you."

Wayne: "..."

He looked at Mitra for a long time until she turned pale, then turned to Old Jack and Ubli and said: "Be prepared to speed up the construction progress in the city-state. It seems that we will be here for a long time. It’s stationed.”

"Okay." Old Jack said concisely.

"Then can I go back and pick up my family?" Ubli's eyes lit up and he asked.

"family?"

Wayne shook his head, "For safety reasons, it's better to say goodbye."

Since Black Jack specifically reminded him about the [Explosive Sniper Rifle], sooner or later the Araniga would know that it was him who provided it.

Plus the Dawn Church, the Dusk Sect, and other possible dangers...

Alexei Island in the future will definitely not be safe!
"Oh." Ubli was a little disappointed.

"Then Master, can I reply to Black Jack now?"

Wei En thought for a few seconds and nodded: "Reply and tell him that I agree. But there are too many [explosive sniper rifles] and the time will be extended."

The fifty [explosion sniper rifles] traded last time have not been produced yet, and now there are one thousand more...

Marco, it seems that the bullet making drawings can be of great help to you...

"Also, tell him not to announce the transaction details for the time being."

"Huh?" Mitra was stunned for a moment, "Master, don't you want others to know that you control this place?"

"I don't want to think about it yet." Wei En waved his hand and said without further explanation: "Go and get busy. This island will inevitably have you busy in the future."

"Yes!"

Mitra bowed, and the two dazzling clocks hung down naturally, faintly revealing two clear-colored dials, as if they were specially left blank for the people in front of them.

Ubli and Old Jack also bowed and turned to leave with her.

When everything calmed down, Wayne's lips curled up slightly.

What he was afraid of was not his identity as the owner of Alexei Island, but that he didn't want to be exposed before he was fully prepared.

The rune array on this island is not well arranged and cannot provide him with more help.

The island's defenses couldn't even withstand a legendary strike, and there wasn't much sense of security.

Such an island is not considered an ideal place in Wei En's mind.

Thinking of this, Wayne turned the golden key and returned to the theater space.

What he didn't know was that in the shop area not far away, three scary old guys noticed his departure.

"The little guy is hiding again."

"It seems that your matter will have to wait, Velosa."

"The research report isn't here yet, is it?"

……

……

Wei En returned to the studio, took out two knightly novels and a common knowledge introduction book on each continent from the space ring, and opened the door.

"Tina, Miss Pafra, sister..."

"Ti, Sister Sharawa..."

"Sha, Shava..."

At the dining table, Little Bai Mao has grown up a little, and his face has gained a bit more color. He is learning daily vocabulary with Pafula and Miss Zombie.

She did not forget the content of Gonzalez language, and even learned it much faster after having emotional reactions.

But her speaking habits are still the same as before.

Therefore, after getting Tina's consent, Wei En arranged for Shava and Pavla to be responsible for teaching her.

"Wei, Wei En."

Xiao Baimao noticed Wayne's arrival immediately and appeared in his arms instantly, hanging his hands around his neck. Even the two little bear dolls and clown dolls that never left his hands were thrown under the dining table.

"Great progress." A smile appeared on Wei En's face. He carried Tina to the dining table and sat down. He put the things in his hands on the table and said, "I brought you a new book. It should be able to help." you."

"Yes, Tina, I like it." Xiao Baimao looked at the book with a simple map on the cover and said with a smile.

Her eyes were no longer empty, but bright black, shining like two black gems, with Wayne's appearance reflected in them.

Even when she was looking elsewhere, she still had Wayne's look in her eyes.

"Mine too?"

Next to her, Pafra watched the two people's actions, secretly thinking that the evil wizard also had such tenderness. Then she saw the knight novel on the table and said happily: "This is for me, right? Isn't it?"

"Of course, except for you, no one here will be attracted to the fantasy world."

Pavla: "..."

I don't think this is a good thing to say.

But forget it.

If you read novels, her life here is not bad.

Only Sharapova looked at Wei En expressionlessly, as if to say, where is mine?

gift!

Wei En looked at her and said dumbly: "Sawa, I'll give you... well, I've prepared the original core of the undead creature..."

"Give it to me!" Ms. Zombie's tone was still cold.

"Later, later, I happen to have something to arrange for you and Zero to do together..."

Wei En would not tell her before she could exchange it with the ghost.

Thinking like this, he quickly looked at Pafula and asked, "How are those guards doing?"

"guard?"

Pafula replied while flipping through the newly acquired novel: "It's very good."

"I'm asking about their strength."

"It's not bad...it's just weird."

Seeing him asking this question, Pafula put down the novel for a moment and asked suspiciously: "Did Claire teach them any breathing techniques before?"

"Claire?" Wei En was startled and recalled: "She seemed to have mentioned that it is a unique method of improving strength of the Eternal Life Society. What's wrong?"

"No, I always think their origins are a bit weird."

origin……

Wei En asked seriously: "Tell me in detail."

"Unlike any original characteristic I know, it is very corrosive." Pafula bit her finger, the feedback of authority and power appeared in her mind, and said in a strange tone: "I can feel it, 'kindness' They are warning me and want me to destroy them!"

"destroy……"

Wei En frowned secretly, even such a powerful power as the "good" authority of Dawn Church issued a warning.

No way……

Could it be that what Claire taught them was not the so-called eternal breathing method, but came from her secret identity? !

The ancient heritage of the Lady of the Night? !
