Struggle in the Steam Age

After following the staff to a small tent, the staff stopped and signaled Lawrence to go in. Lifting the curtain of the tent, he found that basically the top management of the entire competition organizing committee had been waiting for him here.

"Okay, let's not be polite at all." Lawrence was about to bow when a priest of the God of the Sea wearing a blue robe with a pattern of ocean waves asked impatiently, but he hadn't asked what he wanted to ask problem. She was stopped by the middle-aged priestess in a rough white robe on the main seat.

"Priest Hamilcar, please be quiet! This young man saved almost all the contestants in this competition. He is not a criminal." After speaking, the priestess turned to Lawrence. "You can call me Sister Carissa, we called you here to find out what happened in that astral plane?"

After making such a big mistake, the organizer will naturally look for the reason for the mistake to avoid similar things from happening in the next game. So after a brief tidying up, Lawrence began to talk about what happened in the astral plane from the discovery of the broken breastplate that belonged to the Knights of the Shield of Light 400 years ago.

It took half an hour for this lecture, and Lawrence described the conspiracy set up by the kobold leader by the dragon remnant soul belonging to the undead red dragon in a complete and detailed manner. During the whole narration process, he just concealed the fact that the last dragon remnant soul was captured by Bai Zexuying, but claimed that the remnant soul had been completely destroyed.

"So that's the case." After listening to Lawrence's narration, the leading Sister Carissa nodded slowly. "I can feel that your warlock bloodline comes from a beast with a power level that is probably equivalent to that of a god. At the same time, this power is so sacred that it can even suppress all kinds of evil creatures and undead creatures."

Having said that, Sister Carissa stood up and said to the representatives of various organizations present at the competition. "So the ability to solve the problem this time without harming the contestants is entirely due to the strength and bravery of this young man. Therefore, I propose to give him an additional reward."

"Indeed." "This is what it should be." "Contributors must be rewarded accordingly, otherwise no one will make contributions in the future." As soon as Sister Carissa's voice fell, the Church of Knowledge, Agriculture The representative of the church and the White Eagle Federation immediately started talking in a hurry. Soon, the decision to give Lawrence extra rewards was finalized.

After a brief discussion among a group of people, Sister Carissa announced an additional reward to Lawrence, "Mr. August, in view of your heroic behavior in the competition, the competition organizing team has decided to name this competition named Sea and Flame." 1% of the output of the Astral Plane will be given to you and your designated heirs forever from now on."

"The White Eagle Federation, the Demon Hunter Association, the Church of the Suffering God, and the Church of Knowledge will guarantee the execution of this contract. At the same time, for this profit, you or your heir who has mastered extraordinary power can go to the above-mentioned organizations in exchange for extraordinary materials Or service."

"This benefit will be maintained until the designated heir disappears or the astral plane disappears, but it should be noted that you have no other rights other than receiving this annuity every year and the right to recommend supervision. At the same time, this benefit power It is also not allowed to transfer by means other than inheritance, nor is it allowed to split by any means."

"Thank you so much." Lawrence thanked from the bottom of his heart. He had chatted with Zhu Yan before. As a direct descendant of a real big family, although he was ranked fifth or sixth in the line of succession, he knew many secrets of nobles and big families.

When the two of them talked about the astral plane, Zhu Yan, as a member of a big family with an astral plane at home, easily calculated how much this astral plane named Sea and Flame could gain after it was developed. .

Considering that this plane is a tropical island-type plane with an area of ​​more than 1,000 square kilometers, it also has a dense environment of fire elements created by an active volcano. He estimated that if it is properly developed, it will only take three years to complete the development, and then it will be able to produce about 3 million yuan in revenue every year.

Lawrence takes the output instead of the net income, which means that after three years, he can get an annual annuity of 30,000 yuan. This is already equivalent to the annual income of many wealthy businessmen, bankers or factory owners. So although there are many restrictions on getting this money, Lawrence still feels very satisfied.

After signing several contracts about the benefits witnessed by the gods, Lawrence originally planned to thank everyone seriously and then leave, but the Sister Carissa stopped him.

"It's a good thing not to be greedy. But you saved so many people and cleaned up the entire plane this time. The credit is not enough, especially for a transcendent like you. So what else do you want? You can talk about it." Looking at Lawrence's actions just now, these representatives all showed friendly smiles.

"What do I want?" Lawrence felt a little overwhelmed when he realized that the choice was in his hands. Because the speed of asking what you want is really too difficult to grasp. On the one hand, if the requirements are too low, you will panic, and on the other hand, if the requirements are too high, it will erase the good impression you just made.

For a fledgling transcendent like Lawrence, it is definitely important to make a good impression in front of a group of big shots, especially when he has already received enough rewards. So after simply weighing the pros and cons, he quickly made his choice.

"I don't know exactly what I want, but I hope to obtain as much supernatural knowledge as possible. Because I became a superhuman much later than others, so I am lacking in this aspect." Lawrence scratched Scratching his head he raised his head. "Especially after awakening, I became a spellcaster, so the lack of knowledge is even more serious. So, if there is anything I want now, then there is only this."

"Is this what your wish is?" Sister Carissa asked for confirmation, then turned her head to discuss with the people behind, and then turned her head and said to Lawrence, "I see, if this is the case, we I will give you a special library card, and with this card, you can go to the White Eagle Federal Library and the library of the Church of Knowledge to borrow all non-confidential silver and extraordinary books below silver."

"Then thank you very much." After hearing this sentence, Lawrence immediately bowed to everyone to express his heartfelt thanks. In this wealth of knowledge, knowledge is power in the world. Being able to get in touch with so much extraordinary knowledge is also an absolutely rich harvest for Lawrence.

After the conversation was completely over, Lawrence left the tent and returned to the banquet hall. Because the conversation just now was not long, the banquet in the banquet hall was still in full swing.

"What did the organizing committee ask you for?" Lawrence sat down, and the soldier next to him, Lei Suo, asked curiously. At this moment, another staff member also called John out. "Hey, they seem to be called John."

"I think the organizing committee may call everyone in our team to understand the situation." Lawrence shrugged and said, "After all, there was a serious problem in this competition, which almost wiped out all the participating members. .So they must inquire carefully to avoid the same problem in the future.”

"So that's the case." After Lei Suo nodded, he began to eat faster, because he was a little worried that if he was called to ask for a long time, he would have nothing to eat after the banquet was over when he came back.
