Arcane Lord

Hildalanna's implication was that she would tell the news first, and then Sha Duo would decide whether to agree to the deal. This would be a sure profit for Sha Duo, so what reason did he have to object?

"Ms. Hildalanna, please speak!"

"What I want to tell you is - there is an extremely powerful force hidden behind the Moon Shadow family. This power originally originated from Sluvend, and later spread to other elven countries, including your good ally Ilfarang. "

Having said this, Hildalanna paused for a moment, adjusted her emotions, and then continued: "I don't know exactly what this power is. I only know that Helion's reforms are probably influenced by them. Influence."

"etc."

Shado quickly interrupted Hildalanna and asked in confusion: "You said that this power can be hidden in many countries, and even King Helion is affected by them.

"Then I have to ask you, since this force is so powerful, why have I never heard of it? I never believe that there can be any powerful force that is willing to hide behind the scenes and watch others dominate."

"Some things don't exist if you don't believe them." Hildalanna was silent for a moment and asked Shado, "Last time we met, I mentioned a mysterious organization in Cormanso. Before that, Lord Shado, you Have you ever heard of that organization?”

"I've never heard of it, but it can only be regarded as a secret society, not a so-called hidden power. For example, Ms. Hildalanna, will joining that mysterious organization affect your public appearances?"

"No." Hildarana said truthfully. She understood what Sha Duo meant and also understood her previous misunderstanding.

"That powerful secret force may also be a secret society. The members all have public identities. Even King Helion is one of them. But isn't that even more terrifying?"

Shado sneered at this. Hildalanna herself had joined a secret society, so wouldn't other elves be allowed to join as well?

Even if King Helion is one of them, it is easy to understand. The other party wants to carry out centralized reforms in Yeerlan. Would he dare to do this without a large group of hardcore allies? Aren't you afraid of being asked "Why did King Mian rebel" the next day?

Shado is more inclined to think that Hildalanna deliberately misled him, hoping to divert his attention to King Helion. Perhaps the Moon Shadow family is really related to King Helion.

But in the final analysis, Xia Duo and the Yueying family have no grudges. They are just curious about what the other party has done, especially the method of completely erasing traces, and nothing else.

"If Ms. Hildalanna only had this information, I think it would be difficult for me to convince myself to do something that is not so pleasant!"

"Of course it's more than that!"

Hildalana's expression remained unchanged and she continued: "I wonder if Lord Shado has ever heard of the [Light of Inspiration] potion?"

"Light of inspiration?"

Sha Duo felt that the name was a bit familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. He glanced at Hildalanna, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that the other party wanted to trick him.

After quickly tracing his memory, Shado thought that he had read the name "Light of Inspiration" in a miscellaneous journal in the Giles Tower Library.

That miscellany is called "Travel to the North", and the author is a great mage named "Nassol" from Giles Tower. Of course, he also has another identity——

A poet who is somewhat famous in the elven kingdoms.

Poets are different from bards. The latter focuses more on performance, while the former is a pure text worker.

Although elves do not discriminate against bards, they will not pay too much attention to them unless they have achieved amazing achievements in poetry and performance.

In contrast, pure poets, writers or performers are more likely to be respected, and Nassol may have taken advantage of this.

Although Shado had never read the other party's poetry, judging from the "Travel to the North", Nassor's writing was not up to the level of shocking the elves.

Of course, it may also be taking advantage of human identity.

In "Travel to the North", Nassor recorded his experience of traveling around the northern countries. In the Sluvende part, Nassor mentioned that he accidentally participated in a local poetry discussion.

At that party, Nassor saw a mysterious potion called [Light of Inspiration]. The specific effect was not stated clearly in the book, but Shado could guess that it might be something similar to a drug.

It can give users a short burst of inspiration.

Isn't it normal for the literary and art circles to get together privately and take some drugs? Xia Duo had heard a lot about this before traveling through time. Elves have always been used to being extravagant and lewd, so it's not unusual for them to invent drugs.

Not to mention that in a country like Sluvende, although the high-level officials may still have the will and even the strength to resist Ye Erlan, ordinary people may not be willing to live a life of life and death.

War-weariness is serious, and Erlan encourages literary and artistic creation in Sluvende. It is difficult for ordinary people in Sluvende not to indulge in the field of art.

Thinking of this, Sha Duo couldn't help but ask: "Does the light of inspiration that Ms. Hildalanna talks about refer to the light of inspiration that is popular in the Sluvende literary and artistic circle?"

"Yes, I didn't expect Lord Shado to know a lot about Sluvende!" Hildalanna said meaningfully, and then released her ultimate move:

“But the light of inspiration is not the depraved forbidden drug that Lord Shado thought, but a magical potion that is effective for both you and me.

"I have personally tried it. This potion does not affect sanity. On the contrary, it can greatly enhance perception and concentration. It can indeed burst out inspiration. The only drawback is that it is expensive.

"And this magical potion was made by the Yueying family!"

Not a banned drug?

Xia Duo's first reaction was disbelief, but it was difficult for him to refute the judgment of a senior mage. It was just an inspiration potion with no side effects, and it also had miraculous effects on magic research. Why didn't it have a good reputation?

If it really has such a good effect, not to mention spreading to Netheril, it will easily start a discussion and even a buying frenzy within the elven countries!

Xia Duo instinctively felt that there was a problem here, but he couldn't tell where the problem was. After all, the lack of popularity could be explained by strategic control.

And why did Hildalanna connect such a mysterious potion with the Moon Shadow family?

"If Ms. Hildalanna can provide a potion of this light of inspiration——"

"Lord Xia Duo, you can't be too greedy." Hildarana interrupted Xia Duo coldly, but she didn't finish her words. "If Lord Xia Duo wants it, I can do it for only 150,000 gold coins." Give you one."

Why don’t you grab 150,000 gold coins! Xia Duo couldn't help but secretly complain.

If it can permanently enhance your inspiration, it’s not that expensive, but if it only has a short-term effect, it’s not worth it. This is not the way to spend money!

But at this moment, Xia Duo's curiosity has been aroused. He only needs 150,000 to satisfy his curiosity. He thinks it is still worth it.

As for whether the inspiration potion was related to the Yueying family, Sha Duo actually didn't care much.
