Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 202: 202. Chief Consultant

Three days later, the inner circle, the Ministry of Island Affairs.

In the bounty agent Zhennara's office, Li Nuo is reconciling with Zhennara.

"The first wanted criminal, Lituart, what you handed in is a relatively complete body. The Island Affairs Department checked the body and confirmed that there is no trace of triggering the "soul retreat crystal" on the body. Lituart himself did not master the spell of separating the soul from the body. Therefore, Lituart was indeed killed in battle. I am now paying you 20% of the total bounty, which is what you deserve. The remaining 80% will be returned to the bounty sponsor by the Department of Wizarding Law Enforcement. "

While relaying the autopsy results against the autopsy report, Jenara pushed gold coins worth 26,000 to Li Nuo.

"The same is true for the second wanted criminal. You also handed over the corpse. The same is true for the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth wanted criminals. The autopsy report confirmed that all five wanted criminals were killed in action. "

Jenna put the other five rewards on the table and pushed them to Li Nuo. She looked at the calm wizard on the other side of the table, and couldn't help saying with emotion:

"You are really straightforward. The six wanted criminals who have died have all adopted the law enforcement method of killing them on the spot instead of arresting them for trial. In fact, you don't have to be in such a hurry. At least the sixth wanted criminal, You can bring him back and interrogate him yourself, or hand it over to the Island Affairs Department. In this way, we can not only get more clues and find more traces of criminals, but you can also receive the full bounty. I feel a little pity to get 20% of the total bounties of the six bounties.”

Li Nuo smiled slightly:

"I have my own arrangements, Janara. Since the wanted criminals are dead, the dead criminals are the good criminals. If they live an extra day, I feel that they are wasting the clean water of the Suman Islands. Are you right? "

"That's what I said, but..." Jenara always felt that something was weird, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

She raised her shoulders slightly, and stopped arguing with Li Nuo. After all, the biggest contributor to catching the criminal was the other party, not herself:

"Okay, Jarvis. In terms of the specific implementation of the bounty mission and the wanted order, you are still the main one. Well, what are you going to do next? I haven't heard any news about the appearance of the wanted criminal here recently. Regarding the bounty mission There are currently no tasks that meet your requirements."

"Let me think about it." Li Nuo rested his chin on the armrest and entered into a state of thinking.

The high-intensity work in the past three days did not just allow him to get six rewards.

All six criminals are from the Dreadsail pirate nation.

The deconstruction results brought about by passive deconstruction alone can weave an intelligence network about Dreadsail for Li Nuo.

The level of these six criminals is not high, and their combat strength is at most four rings.

They are specifically responsible for sabotage in the outer circle of the Suman Islands.

Destroying production facilities such as seafood, water purification, farms, orchards in the Suman Islands by poisoning, arson, and blasting is a sabotage task that they must perform regularly.

Every half a month or a month, after completing a sabotage mission, the six criminals will receive funding from the Dreadsail Pirate Nation.

Funding content includes: the deep-sea magic power needed to practice the "Deep Sea Scale Meditation Method", gold coin rewards, magic elixir, magic props, deep-sea spells and magic books on meditation methods, etc.

After these six criminals become wizards of the five rings, they can really step into the ocean and become veritable Dreadsail pirates.

This promotion system within the Dreadsailing Pirates Kingdom is relatively scientific, which makes Li Nuo feel very happy.

Very, very cool.

Since the members of the three-ring and four-ring Dreadsails tend to fight alone, they will carry important items with them, or hide them in secret corners.

It would be great if they brought important items with them. Li Nuo can find them directly in the spoils.

It doesn't matter if it is hidden in a secret corner, Li Nuo can find clues in the deconstructed memory fragments, and then get the important items.

No matter what, important items could not escape Li Nuo's grasp.

Thinking about it now, the benefits of killing wanted criminals are amazing.

The benefits brought by the six wanted criminals include:

Six rewards, with a total amount of 166,000 gold coins.

Volumes 1 to 4 of "The Scale of the Deep Sea Meditation Method" cover the cultivation content of this set of meditation methods from the first ring to the fourth ring. Li Nuo broke the magic lock and learned this set of meditation methods with harmless deconstruction;

Volumes 1 to 4 of the magic book "Deep Sea Secret Code" recorded part of the spells of the first to fourth ring deep sea wizards. After cracking the magic lock, Li Nuo used harmless deconstruction to get three spell blueprints, the completeness ranging from 10% to 20%;

Six sets of deep-sea magic robes, magic wands, and underwater breathing masks, and three magic rings that record simple spells;

Six pieces of soul shards, a total of about 1300 points of soul strength;

The cash and equivalents on the six criminals totaled 180,000 gold coins.

In terms of energy rewards, the system directly rewarded a total of 130,000 energy points.

In addition, among the personal belongings of the six criminals, there are many strange magic gadgets and precious metal ornaments.

These things can be rewarded with energy points in a passive structure, with a total of about 300,000 energy points.

Li Nuo didn't touch the energy points for the time being, but saved them as a backup.

All in all, just killing six criminals instantly brought Li Nuo a profit of more than 300,000 gold coins.

This harvest can be described as earning blood.

Li Nuo really wanted to continue this kind of work.

But it's a pity that the Dreadsail Pirates have received a tip, and they have noticed the news of the sudden death of six peripheral members.

When Li Nuo was tracking down the sixth criminal, this guy had already boarded the ocean-going merchant ship that escaped from the Suman Islands, planning to go to Cahill Continent to avoid the limelight.

If Li Nuo hadn't acted quickly, it was really possible for this guy to escape.

Fortunately, Li Nuo successfully stopped him.

Judging from the memory fragments obtained through passive deconstruction, the criminal was reminded by the pirate kingdom of Dreadsails, and only then did he embark on a journey to avoid the limelight.

And the way he communicates with the Dreadsail Pirates is very interesting. It is exactly the same as the legal wizard, and he also communicates face-to-face with Professor Dreadsail through spiritual contact.

Of course, "Professor Dreadsail" is not an official term. In the Dreadsail Pirate Kingdom, the title of professor is called differently. Li Nuo has not obtained any information about it for the time being, but only knows that such a person exists.

Judging from the current situation, Li Nuo had to disappear for a period of time before the next batch of wanted pirates who made trouble in the Suman Islands arrived.

Or, he can only adjust the screening criteria and select criminals with combat strength in the fifth and sixth rings as targets for tracking.

However, it is a bit difficult to kill such an enemy in seconds, which does not meet Li Nuo's definition of "Farm Strategy".

"Jennara, I'm going to rest for a while." Li Nuo said:

"When there is news about the wanted criminals and bounty tasks I need, you will notify me immediately."

"Okay, Jarvis." Facing Li Nuo who planned to take a vacation, Jenara was not disappointed.

She knew the situation here in the Suman Islands, and within two to three days at most, there would be wanted criminals and bounty missions that met Li Nuo's requirements.

There is no way, who told me that there is a huge flow of people in this place.

"I have something here, and I want to ask you for help." Li Nuo took 100,000 gold coins from the table and put them back in front of Jenara:

"I need to rent a stone house for a long time in the visitor area of ​​the core circle. The 100,000 gold coins are a year's rent. Please help me contact the Deep Sea Branch."

"No problem." Jenara found a pen and paper, and wrote a receipt to Li Nuo:

"After I arrange the stone house in the visitor area, I will bring you the lease contract and house keys."

"Well, that's the end of the conversation this time." Li Nuo swept the remaining money and the receipt into the magic pocket.

Before Li Nuo got up to leave, Jenara stopped him:

"Wait a minute, a few people asked me to bring you a message."

"Oh? What?" Li Nuo stopped getting up.

"You are quite famous now, Jarvis." Jenara said with a smile:

"Your efficiency and methods have attracted some people's attention. They asked Ms. Selena and me about you, and wanted to see which member of the wizarding force has such excellent law enforcement capabilities. I have to say, you are now Although the ring level of wizards is not high, it is already enough to enter the vision of certain forces."

Li Nuo thought about it:

"Let me guess, some of the forces you mentioned should include the Pangula family?"

"Yes, Jarvis." Jenara snapped her fingers and said:

"The Pangula family is just one of them. It is one of the most powerful wizard forces in the field of rock and soil and metal, and it is very influential here in the Suman Islands.

"In addition to the Pangula family, the Mantas family controls the magic item exchange, the Haiti family controls the largest shipyard and the most shipyards here in the archipelago, and controls the Charles family that leads from the archipelago to the Cahill continent. The Gnar family, these three families are also inquiring about you. The bounty mission you accepted before is more or less related to these families."

Li Nuo nodded slowly.

This situation was within his expectations.

As a man who takes one step and sees three steps, he already has sufficient plans and preparations for dealing with the concerns of various families.

"Why do these families inquire about me?" Li Nuo asked knowingly.

"Of course I asked you to be a family advisor." Jenna rummaged through the drawer, took out several invitation letters and put them in front of Li Nuo.

Family advisor, um, yes, just as I expected... Li Nuo must be sure that things are going in the direction he planned.

Family advisors are non-family wizards who provide magical advice to the head of the family in a specific area.

The essential job of a family advisor is to make suggestions. If he needs to take action, the remuneration will be calculated separately.

Such a role has obvious benefits for Li Nuo.

One is that there is no strong attachment between the family consultant and the family, and Li Nuo can terminate the consultant contract with the family at any time.

Second, family advisors can sit in on internal meetings of family managers.

Li Nuo didn't care about the content of the meeting, what he wanted was the opportunity to get in touch with members of the inner circle of each family.

In this way, he can master a large amount of information through deconstruction, and it is the kind of information that hides huge wealth and extraordinary power.

Finally, family advisors offer advice, not sell knowledge.

Many times, family advisors simply need to give an opinion without explaining why. This is just right for Li Nuo, because many of his judgments are made through deconstructive results, which is difficult to explain to others.

There are also disadvantages of becoming a family consultant, but Li Nuo has already considered the countermeasures in this regard.

Look at the envelope on the table. No more, no less, exactly four invitation letters, corresponding to the four wizard families that Jenara just mentioned.

Every invitation bears the family crest.

The Pangula family started out with exploration and mining of minerals, and its emblem is "the pickaxe that strikes the ore and pops out Mars".

The Mantas family specializes in operating magic item exchanges in various places. Its emblem is "Magic gems on the left and scales of equal weight on the right".

The Haidier family is a well-known magic ship tycoon, and its emblem is "a magic mechanical ship that splashes large waves when it is launched".

——The magic mechanical ship is not the metal magic ship owned by the enemy captain Berkeley. It is obtained by transforming a steam machine ship and a sail ship, and has a normal ship appearance.

The Chanel family specializes in ocean trade and operating magic workshops, farms, orchards, etc. It uses accurate detection of the fog threshold to build a fleet of magical machinery on the sea to control important waterways. Its emblem is "an ocean-going fleet heading toward the sun in the sky".

These four families are not all the family-type wizarding forces here in the Suman Islands.

In addition to them, there are at least dozens of family forces on the archipelago.

The rest of the family forces did not send an invitation letter to Li Nuo, not because they looked down on Li Nuo, but simply because of insufficient information and network resources, they have not heard about Li Nuo.

Only the top wizard family with the most extensive contacts and the fastest information channels can complete the due diligence on Li Nuo's identity background and true origin in such a short period of time, and then send him an invitation letter.

It is estimated that in the next few days, Jenara will receive letters from small and medium-sized family forces one after another.

Li Nuo opened the four invitation letters on the table and checked them one by one.

The four invitation letters were all issued in the name of the family, and the inviters were the legal heirs of each family.

It seems that here in the Suman Islands, the business of each family on the islands is handled by the heirs within the family.

This kind of family heir who is in charge of the family business in a certain place is the local manager.

They were the ones who sent out the invitation letter, and they were the ones who paid attention to Li Nuo.

Then, they should be the ones who asked Professor Erica for news.

Li Nuo matched the letter from Professor Erica with the invitation letter in front of him in his mind.

"How about it, Jarvis, do you plan to become a family advisor?" Jenna asked after Li Nuo had finished reading the invitation letter.

"I have to think about it." Li Nuo thought about it and responded:

"Although I can serve as a family advisor for multiple families at the same time, and I don't need to quit the "Silent Girl", the price is that I am always on call, and I must appear on the scene as soon as the family needs me. This will delay my own affairs. The most troublesome thing is that multiple families are calling me at the same time. No matter which family I am called to, I may offend other families. However, it is good to take the invitation letter and meet the local managers of each family first. "

Li Nuo has collected the four invitation letters, and is going to visit them one by one, looking for opportunities to attack, so as to make a qualitative leap in his combat strength and financial strength.

His current stamina inventory is exploding, and he just deconstructed the magic books he saw in various families.

It would be great if you can unlock "Evocation Magic".

Li Nuo got up to leave, and Jennara sent him to the door.

On the invitation letter that Li Nuo got, there was the manager's butler's contact information. As assistants to the head of the family, these stewards each have their own magical messengers.

Before Li Nuo came to visit, he had to contact the housekeepers to make an appointment with the time and place, otherwise it would appear abrupt.

When you come to visit, you should also dress more formally, and you should not take it lightly just because you are a guest, thinking that the other party will respect and tolerate you, and you must pay attention to rules and etiquette in everything.

In addition, Li Nuo had to inquire about the hobbies, habits, reputations, and dislikes of the heads of each family, in order to cater to each other's preferences and style of doing things, and generate more favorability.

Most of these trivial but essential things were known to Li Nuo before time travel, and a small part was summed up by understanding the background of the world after time travel.

In short, he must be fully prepared and fully understand the "habits" of the manager before he can visit.

If door-to-door visits are regarded as a channel to understand the manager, it will be over. Getting to know the person in charge must happen before the door-to-door visit. Many people are deflated in the social field just because they don't know this truth.

Li Nuo II is a human being, so naturally he would not make such a mistake.

"If you want to understand the manager, it should be the easiest to throw a deconstruction technique on him. But where can I find these closely guarded managers?"

Li Nuo walked on the street, thinking secretly.

Due to the existence of extraordinary power, the important members of the wizard family in this world will be guarded by a powerful battle mage. Some important family members themselves may have sixth rings, seven rings, or even higher combat strength.

otherwise

Otherwise, just a secret battle within the family for the right to be the first in line of succession would be enough to kill the family members who ranked higher in the line of succession.

It is conceivable that, as local managers of the family business, they will live on an island in the inner circle, spend most of their time in the magic castle handling family affairs, and spend a small amount of time traveling low-key and attending banquets.

Li Nuo rashly appeared near the island, poked and poked around, and waited for an opportunity to throw out the deconstruction technique. This operation might be caught by the family guards on the island, and the relationship would be frozen.

Li Nuo didn't want to see such a scene.

He shook his head slightly, and thought to himself:

"Forget it, let's go according to the most normal visiting process. I'll write a letter to the manager's housekeeper first, have a brief communication, and understand the situation of the manager. After I have fully prepared, I will formally visit the manager. It will take some more time to do so, but this is a difficult operation after all, time-consuming and labor-intensive is inevitable. As long as the result is good, everything is worth it.”

"Mr. Jarvis" A familiar female voice came from the front, just blocking Li Nuo's way.

When Li Nuo looked up, he saw Nelly, the island salesperson whom he had met several times, with obvious joy on his face.

"Good day, Nelly." Li Nuo greeted.

Nelly stepped forward, took out a letter from the magic pocket, and handed it to Li Nuo:

"Mr. Jarvis, the seller of the five islands you bought asked me to bring you a letter. I don't have a magic courier. I wanted to send the letter to the Ministry of Island Affairs myself, and ask the bounty agent there to deliver it for you." I didn't expect to meet you on the road."

"A letter from the seller of the island." Li Nuo took the envelope and looked at it. The Pangula family's "Cross Pickaxe" emblem appeared on it.

Take a closer look, isn't this an invitation letter from the Pangula family? ?

Why is there another invitation letter from the Pangula family? ?

A series of question marks appeared in Li Nuo's mind.

He controlled the expression on his face, maintained a calm look, nodded and said:

"Thanks, Nelly, I'm sorry."

"You're welcome, sir, this is what I should do. Thank you for buying the island from me. I will soon be able to raise enough money to try out the contract magic messenger."

Nelly smiled and waved goodbye.

It seems that Li Nuolian's purchase of five seats left a deep impression on her.

Li Nuo tore open the envelope in his hand, and poured out the letter inside.

He compared this letter with the one he got from Jenara before, and quickly discovered the difference between the two letters from the Pangula family.

The previous letter was sent in the name of the fifth heir of the Pangula family.

But the letter that Li Nuo is holding now is issued in the name of the twenty-fifth heir of the Pangula family.

Fifth, twenty-fifth.

The difference in family status between the two can be seen just from the ranking.

But here comes the problem.

How could there be two heads of the Pangula family here in the Suman Islands?

The fifth heir said in the letter that he was responsible for handling the land resources and mineral resources of the Pangula family in the Suman Islands.

The twenty-fifth in line heir is saying the same thing.

this.

What's going on? ?

Li Nuo felt that things were a little weird, and even suspected that the second letter was a fake, but he immediately dismissed the idea.

It wouldn't do Nelly any good to forge letters, she wouldn't do it.

Li Nuo thought for a while, then threw the deconstruction technique towards the second letter.

He spent some energy points and got the panel information of the letter.

"...Well, it was indeed written by the steward of the twenty-fifth heir of the Pangula family. This letter is true. It seems that there are some incongruous things within the Pangula family, so the Suman Islands Here, there will be two managers dealing with land resources and mineral resources."

Li Nuo sensed a hint of infighting in the family.

Thinking deeply again, it is not difficult to find out how big the gap between the fifth and twenty-fifth heirs is.

The fifth heir found him, Li Nuo, through Jenara. This shows that the heir is well-informed, and has his own news channels in fields other than land and minerals.

But the twenty-fifth heir was much inferior. He only paid attention to Li Nuo because of the sale and purchase of the island, and he never praised Li Nuo for catching criminals and completing the bounty mission in the letter.

The gap between them is enough to explain the gap in the overall strength of the two.

"Hey, I really didn't expect it. I haven't decided which family I want to be the family advisor. I have to consider the side issue of the two principals of the Pangula family first."

Li Nuo couldn't help sighing in his heart:

"Sure enough, when it comes to interpersonal communication, things will become a lot more troublesome."
