Noble Emblem

Beta is not a dark creature, so what is the use of this negative energy crystal? Even if it is used as a magic material, it has very few uses.

"I think as a city lord, your strength is a bit weak. It would be better to strengthen it." Beta said half-truthfully: "These things have little effect on me, so it is better to give them to you."

Angela kept looking at Beta, as if she wanted to distinguish the truth from falsehood in his words, but Beta looked at her calmly.

It was Angela who couldn't bear it anymore and looked away first.

"Okay, I understand." Angela waved her hand angrily: "I will ask Martha to bring you a hundred gold coins."

After coming out of the palace, Beta returned to his room to rest.

He was a little tired after not sleeping for dozens of hours.

After habitually setting up a small, harmless magic trap at the door of the house for warning purposes, Beta entered the magic space of the mansion.

After sleeping for three hours, Beta reappeared full of energy, just as Martha came to find him with a hundred gold coins.

A stone box with a very primitive feel and a rough shape.

Most of the demon world is made of glowing ferns and there are no trees, so most of the containers here are made of stone.

"The money is here. One hundred pieces, click on it." Martha looked at Beta, with a bit of disbelief on her long face: "You actually gave such a valuable thing to the Queen, are you really Want to have sex with the queen? "

Beta sighed helplessly, why did the succubus always think of these questions. But then I thought about it and felt it was normal.

** is the nature of succubi, and it is also the skill they rely on to survive in the demon world.

When they get benefits, they will subconsciously think that it is reasonable and reasonable for the other party to want to commit suicide.

Beta waved his hands, not wanting to explain anything, but said, "Can you please gather the blacksmiths in the city?"

Martha nodded.

About an hour later, Beta was sitting in a somewhat narrow stone house, which was his 'office'.

There were more than a dozen demons sitting across from them. Compared with ordinary demons, they had much less evil aura.

These are all demons of the lawful evil alignment, mostly mind flayers.

Although the Mind Flayer's 'face-changing technique' is considered very troublesome in the human world, it is not so practical in the demon world.

Because many demons recognize people by smell and magic power fluctuations, rather than simply by appearance.

Therefore, many mind flayers focus their energy on perfecting their craft.

The intelligence of mind flayers is quite high in the demon world, so they can achieve success in their crafts. But that's all.

If combat skills can be improved in battle, then life skills must be improved in a peaceful or relatively stable environment.

Although war is the catalyst for the upgrading of various weapons, at least the technicians must be guaranteed a short and stable life. No matter how smart a person is, it takes time to learn this knowledge.

But the demon world is so chaotic that there is no time for this.

Many things are made by me in a few peaceful days, and the things I have figured out will most likely disappear due to turmoil in a few days or a few years.

People are dead!

nothing left.

There is no decent inheritance at all.

Looking at the group of blacksmiths, Beta took out a stack of paper that he had prepared earlier and said: "This is what I wrote down when I was in the human world. Some basic forging skills, as well as experience in building and using furnaces. It is not very comprehensive. But I think it should be much better than what you messed up on your own.”

Hearing this, the craftsmen's eyes lit up.

Although humans are weak in the eyes of the demons, they have to admit that humans' craftsmanship and technology far exceed theirs.

They believed Beta's words very much. Firstly, Beta was a human being, which strengthened his credibility. Secondly, as a strong man and a peace officer, there was no need for him to lie to lowly craftsmen like himself.

"I can give you the things, but the contents must not be exposed. From now on, you must all be attached to the succubus tribe for life and are not allowed to work for other races or the city lord. If you agree, you can stay. If you don't agree, You can live your life as before, do you understand?"

Martha looked at Beta in surprise.

The expressions of the group of craftsmen were hesitant.

If they can obtain human casting skills, then their skills will definitely improve a lot in the future. Why should they stay in this small city of succubi at that time? Wouldn't it be more preferable to go to the city of the great commander and the great devil? How many benefits?

At that moment, a Mind Flayer craftsman said, "Sheriff Li Lin, can we pay for these technologies?"

Beta looked at him funny and asked: "Do you think I am short of money? Besides, I sell it to you poor guys, why don't I sell it to a big lord or something? There is much more money, do you really think I'm stupid? "

A group of craftsmen had nothing to say.

Finally one of the mind flayer craftsmen stood up and left.

Then they left one by one, and only four blacksmiths stayed.

Martha's expression was a little ugly, and Beta could even feel a faint murderous intent on her body.

"There is no need to do anything to them for the time being." Beta said slowly: "If they stay in the city obediently and behave as usual, forget it. If they leave within a few days... kill those who can. ”

Martha nodded.

Beta gave some basic human forging techniques, and its original intention was only to provide some technical support to Erbu City. He doesn't want these technologies to spread throughout the demon world. Because of this, in a few years the demon world will have better quality weapons and armor, which will inevitably cause greater harm to the human world.

Why Erbu City?

Beta's life in the past few months has discovered that succubi are actually very close to humans.

Even some fallen humans are friendly to them. Since ancient times, summoners have summoned a lot of succubi, and there has never been a succubus killing everyone or causing trouble for one party.

A race that is instinctively close to humans, Beta thought they could win over.

When it comes to a real war between humans and demons, they might be able to instigate rebellion. Even if they can't, they can still be kept neutral.

If you really instigate rebellion, you will really make a lot of money.

The succubus doesn't have much shortcomings except for her love of sex. The private lives of nobles are no different from those of succubi.

If you can stand a noble, you can stand a succubus.

For this reason, Beta felt that it was appropriate to make a certain favor investment in the succubus.

But now, it's just a preliminary attempt.

The four remaining blacksmiths were naturally heavily 'protected'. From now on, their lives and needs would be met and controlled by the Succubi.

One hundred gold coins are used to buy them materials, equipment, etc.

Of course, due to the scarcity of resources in the demon world, the purchasing succubi need to travel further to find what they want. This takes time.

In the next few days, most of the blacksmiths who left kept to themselves. Of course, the bodies of a few people appeared outside the city, and were later eaten by the flame imps as delicacies.

When Angela learned about this, she snorted: "As expected, some of us in the demon world value credibility. But Li Lin's behavior makes us owe him a big favor."

Martha said nonchalantly: "Then just keep owing me, we are all our own people anyway."

Angela shook her head: "You don't understand. Human kindness is very important."

"Isn't it just that I have been to the human world once? What a show." Martha made a face: "One day, I will also go to the human world, and then 'eat' many men and make them all mine. The minister under the skirt."

Angela said calmly: "We succubi only wear high-cut tights, not skirts."

Martha was so angry that she had nothing to say, snorted and turned around to leave.

"Tsk, everyone is so arrogant, but I am the queen."

That's what he said, but Angela actually didn't mean to be angry at all.

In the human world, Sophia and her daughter Barbara used a large teleportation array to reach Waking City in an instant.

Although teleportation magic circles have been built in the major cities of Holevin, the price of three silver coins per time means that this is a way of travel that can only be enjoyed by dignitaries.

Ordinary civilians could bite the bullet and try it out, but for them, it was more cost-effective to take a horse-drawn carriage or take a boat from the canal.

Nowadays, the land and waterways in Hollaven are extremely smooth, and the travel time is not only greatly shortened, but also there are guards from the Temple of Wealth patrolling regularly on both waterways and landways, making it very safe.

It has been a long time since I heard of any robbery by the road bandits and water tyrants.

Coming out of the teleportation array, there was a bustling crowd in front of them.

I don’t know how much more prosperous it is than Neverwinter City.

And there are many races here. In just two or three minutes, Barbara has already seen elves, cat people, fox people, werewolves, etc...

Sophia brought Barbara to the city lord's mansion, and after giving her name, she was received by Shirley.

Shirley, who was extremely beautiful and charming, happily held Sophia's hand. After chatting with her for a while, she asked, "Are you here to travel this time?"

"I want to trouble you with something, but it's not me, it's my daughter."

Shirley looked at Barbara, nodded and said, "Long time no see, Ms. Barbara."

Out of respect for Kyle, Shirley also gave Barbara enough face.

Barbara was drinking a glass of mead. The one sent by the elves... was quite delicious, with a hint of sourness in the sweetness, making it unforgettable.

After taking a deep breath, Barbara said: "Actually, this matter is also beneficial to your divine religion. For the sake of my husband and me, can you take the initiative to negotiate with the Red Magic Tower and recall Rael at the same time? Den’s army?”

"What!" Shirley felt that she had heard wrongly, and she looked at Sophia in disbelief.

And Sophia said apologetically: "I just came here to prevent things from getting out of hand."

Shirley looked at Barbara for a while and asked, "Is this what Kyle meant?"
