Green Monster Epic
#698 - Meeting Request
Leaving the Crimson Wings Commerce, Allen continued to wander the bustling streets of Frostcrystal City, visiting places with considerable strength like the Legendary Auction House and the Dawnlight Commerce, revealing his desire to purchase a Dual Mind legendary feat crystal.
Now it seemed that Figlas's suggestion was not a problem. At least several of the commerce and auction houses Allen visited assured him that they could help him obtain the Dual Mind legendary feat. However, most of these merchants directly quoted prices, and the prices varied. They were not like the Crimson Wings Commerce, which only needed to verify that Allen had the ability to make the purchase.
Anyway, Allen was just casting a wide net. When it came time to actually buy, he would still compare prices and see who had the most realistic price.
The Dual Mind legendary feat is still very special. It is very unpopular, and few people are willing to actively master this feat, because the hidden dangers are extremely great. A slight carelessness can lead to schizophrenia, turning a normal person into a mental patient.
It would be fine if an ordinary person became a mental patient, at worst they would be sent to a mental hospital and isolated from normal people. But if a legendary powerhouse suffers from mental illness and develops schizophrenia, the split personality is basically the dark side that the main personality has been suppressing, resulting in extraordinary destructive power.
Over time, this legendary feat has become a taboo in the legendary realm. Not only are few people willing to actively learn this feat, but many large forces also prohibit its spread.
This is why it was difficult for Allen to find this legendary feat in the wilderness.
When Figlas mentioned this feat to Allen, he also solemnly told Allen about its hidden dangers and asked Allen to think carefully. However, the increasingly frequent resonance in Allen's sea of consciousness, and the situation of seeing the prayers of believers, basically made it difficult for Allen to calm down to train and improve his strength. Now it has become so serious that it affects Allen's normal thinking. How could he not be worried and anxious? In the end, he was determined to take the great risk of schizophrenia and try to solve his physical problems by learning the Dual Mind feat.
Sometimes it's funny to think about it. Other churches can't wait for their believers to maintain a pious attitude, but in reality, among the vast number of believers in a church, truly pious believers are rare, one in a hundred.
On the other hand, among the thousands of believers in Allen's newly established pseudo-god faith, at least 1/3 of the goblins hold a loyal, reverent, and even life-sacrificing pious attitude towards the 'God of Food' they believe in, which has now become Allen's burden and problem.
The time agreed with Crimson Wings passed quickly. When Allen stepped into the magnificent building again according to the previous agreement, he noticed a few strange things as soon as he took the first step.
The last time he entered this lobby, in addition to himself, there were also a few other customers pacing back and forth between the display counters in the spacious lobby, checking out their favorite products. But this time visiting the commerce, in the entire space on the first floor of the building, besides the human female Shama who greeted him the first time, there was no trace of any other guests.
Turning his gaze to the left and right of the tall gate entrance, two human warriors wearing exquisite armor stood guard in front of the door like door gods. Further away, there was a lot of traffic. Mental power spread out silently, but he didn't find any abnormal movements, nor did he sense any existence that could threaten him.
"Esteemed guest, our commerce is closed to the public for one day today, just to welcome your visit."
Shama took the initiative to greet him, her youthful face with a warm and bright smile that made people's hearts flutter.
"Our manager has been waiting for you in the reception room upstairs for a long time."
"…"
Allen frowned. Although his wild intuition did not send him an alarm, he still felt a heavy undercurrent densely surrounding him.
However, in the blink of an eye, based on his affirmation of his own strength, Allen still turned back and walked into the hall with steady steps, and went upstairs under Shama's guidance.
At the entrance of the second floor, Germaine, who had been informed, walked out of the reception room with the previous appraisal master Kasten to greet Allen at the staircase, which made Allen feel a little relieved.
"Welcome back, Warrior Allen."
Germaine suddenly called out Allen's name, which surprised Allen a bit, but he was relieved when he thought of the adventurer team he had cooperated with before.
"Or should we call you, Chief Allen! !"
Just as Allen was relieved and followed Germaine and the two of them forward, when he pushed open the door of the reception room, a strange voice, with magnetism and the light of reason, suddenly sounded, once again dragging Allen's already calm state of mind towards solemnity.
His expression unchanged, Allen first looked sharply at the open door. Inside, there were two or three humans wearing wide robes, sitting at a round table pieced together from long tables, smiling amiably at Allen.
"Chief Allen. Witte of the Green Field Tribe in the Mansa Wilderness, Abel of the Eternal Truth Council, representing my country's royal family, welcomes your arrival."
The leading human had gray hair. Even when talking to Allen, he still kept his eyes closed, which made Allen slightly unhappy.
"I'm sorry, I, this old blind man, have no way to see the new generation of demigod pillars in the wilderness with my own eyes, it's a pity! !"
Seeming to sense the change in Allen's mood, the white-haired old man ridiculed himself with his physical defects and joked with Allen.
"I didn't expect that the Vice President of the Truth Council would come to see me in person!"
Although his identity was exposed, Allen was not as cautious as before. If these people in front of him and the forces behind them really wanted to set a trap to deal with him, there would be no need to appear directly in front of him like this now.
Wearing a robe, blind in both eyes, and revealing that he came from the Truth Council, if Allen still couldn't guess who the old man speaking to him was, then he would be unworthy of being a qualified tribal leader and adventurer.
"I heard that someone was looking for the Dual Mind legendary feat that has long been circulating on the market, and the person looking for it seems to be a warrior by profession, so I was curious and came over to see which warrior had such courage to learn this risky legendary feat."
"Lord Allen, don't blame Herol's commerce. Nowadays, in Frostcrystal City, any way to find the Dual Mind feat cannot be separated from our Truth Council, because in Frostcrystal City, besides the royal family, only our Truth Council stores a few Dual Mind legendary feat crystals."
“So, if Hailier's trading company wants to complete this transaction with Your Excellency Allen, they will have to tell me about your deal in the end.”
Beside Abel, on the left edge, the look of shock on the delicate face of the human girl Hailier had not yet dissipated until the Great Arcanist Abel explained a few words for her family's trading company, and then her complexion improved a little.
When she reported this news to the council, she didn't think that this goblin could attract such a big motive. Now she didn't even think that the object she betrayed with a piece of news would be a demigod.
Although the Scarlet Wings Trading Company had the backing of the Council of Truth, and although the trading company's inherent territory was only in the Ice and Snow Kingdom, logically speaking, Hailier and her trading company would not be too worried about offending this suddenly emerged demigod powerhouse.
But after all, this goblin in front of her was a demigod. In the entire Ice and Snow Kingdom, except for the royal family, which was said to have a saint-level incarnation hidden, a demigod-level diamond construct that had never been seen before, the strongest of the other major forces was only a demigod.
As for the Council of Truth, which was the backer of the Scarlet Wings, although it had cultivated several legendary powerhouses in recent years, the strongest in the council was still only at the peak of the legendary level. Although mages were definitely the most powerful profession among all professions, the outstanding among other combat professions were not inferior to mages under the same rank, let alone existences that were a whole rank higher!
Had she known that she had leaked the information of a demigod, then Hailier believed that she could have done it more discreetly, at least not let the goblin in front of her notice what their trading company had done.
“I see.”
Allen understood. He wouldn't be angry at the trading company in front of him. Since he had already known the relationship between the Scarlet Wings Trading Company and the Council of Truth when he inquired about the news before, then he couldn't blame others for being leaked his whereabouts now.
It just so happened that Allen was only hiding his identity to avoid trouble and misunderstanding. But if he really decided not to let people find flaws, then he wouldn't even change his name, nor would he show off his cooking skills on the road.
Thinking carefully, the clues he left along the way were really not small. If the other party locked on his suspicion, and then traced back along this clue to find more corroboration, they could roughly guess his true identity in three days.
“Since Master Abel, you all know my identity, then there is nothing to hide. However, my purpose in coming to the Ice and Snow Kingdom this time is just the Dual Tasking skill inheritance crystal that I requested from the Scarlet Wings Trading Company three days ago.”
“Master, name your price. How much money or materials do I need to pay in order to exchange for this inheritance crystal.”
“Based on the friendship between our council and the Mansa Alliance, if Clan Leader Allen needs this inheritance crystal, we are naturally willing to reach this deal with you. But before this deal, our Council Speaker Liam hopes to talk to Your Excellency Allen alone.”
Abel's face was kind, and his gentle voice had a penetrating power, which seemed to be able to soothe people's hearts.
“Of course, in terms of the arrangement of the conversation location, you don't have to go to the Ice Crystal Tower headquarters of our Council of Truth. I will ask Chairman Hailier to vacate her trading company's manor to facilitate our conversation.”
“Can I refuse?”
Allen frowned slightly, his tone a little cold.
“We still hope to talk to you. Perhaps the content of our conversation will be of great help to your future layout!!”
Although Abel's eyes were closed, Allen still felt that the area of his eyes seemed to be radiating shrewd and cunning expressions.
“However, our request has nothing to do with the transaction between us. Regardless of whether you agree to the conversation and meeting, this transaction can be completed today under the witness of Chairman Hailier and her trading company.”
“……”
Allen's vigilant mood finally relaxed a bit when he heard this, and his perception of the human powerhouse in front of him also improved a lot.
“Then let's complete this deal first, and then talk about the meeting.”
“Okay.”
“Name your price.”
“500,000 gold coins, or materials of equal value.”
“……Isn't this price a bit expensive.”
“Your Excellency Allen, rare things are precious. Although few people are willing to try to master the Dual Tasking skill in this era, its effect and value are definitely proportional for certain states!!”
Abel's words seemed to have another meaning, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and the mysterious smile made Allen unpredictable.
“Moreover, to be honest, if someone really has great perseverance to master this skill, then its characteristics can significantly improve an individual's ability in both combat and daily life, especially for us casters.”
“It's just a pity that as mages, we respect rational thinking, and we don't lack other similar skills, coupled with its irreversible risk to mental thinking, so this skill has gradually been forgotten in our mage world.”
“……Okay, let's trade at the price you said.”
Allen pondered for a moment, then nodded and agreed. He had already prepared to pay a high price or even use extraordinary means for this trip. However, since the conditions offered by the other party were within his tolerance range, and there were no other conditions, reason told Allen that he could make some concessions.
“But I don't have that much money on me right now. I'm afraid I have to sell some materials to Chairman Hailier and the others first, and then with you……”
“No problem, or you can take out the materials in your hand and we will see if we need them, which can actually save trouble.”
“Okay.”
Allen casually took the dimensional bag and poured it into the empty space in the room. The pile of messy materials that had been taken out before was once again displayed in front of everyone.
Kasten's eyes lit up, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. After asking Hailier, Abel and others for instructions, he trotted to the materials, and soon the sound of him chanting the quality of the materials rang out.
“A pair of Mad Warrior's shoulder blades, the magic content is 65%, the owner should have been a legendary demon before his death……”
“Alas, it's a waste of things. A pair of succubus's flesh wings are stored like this, and half of the magic contained in them has been lost. I'm afraid the quality will not be too high……”
Listening to Kasten's incessant chanting, the expressions in everyone's eyes were different, but only Allen and Abel remained calm.
