Chapter 360 This is a very common negotiation mission, there is no combat requirement...
"Forehead."
Perhaps confused by Mo Cheng's straightforward words, Principal Muzel spoke after a while: "This is a negotiation. Until the last moment, there is no need to launch... um... devastating attacks on the other party ."
Without paying much attention to what Principal Muzel said, Mo Cheng focused all his attention on the revealed mission requirements. "It doesn't matter. If we can't reach an agreement I'll kill them. I'm familiar with this matter. And under the premise of time being tight, I will take the lead in entering the final stage with them and will not give them a chance to negotiate."
There are various ways to complete the missions in [Foreign Land], whether using language or violence, there is no completely fixed way.
But as a high school student who did not have much time to play, Mo Cheng often consciously disrupted the conversations in the middle of the negotiations and went straight to the final violent stage.
After all, the game time is limited, and if you waste time watching cutscenes, you won’t be able to relax.
"So who are we going to [negotiate] with? Don't worry, I'll make it seem like the other party made the first move. I'm an expert at this."
From his indifferent expression, we could tell that this guy had done this kind of thing more than once or twice, and he was as skilled as a worker on an assembly line.
Principal Muzel finally found a chance to answer, and replied unhappily: "I don't plan to ask you to negotiate."
No plan to let him negotiate?
I'm afraid this old man is trying to make fun of me.
Looking at the communication device in his hand, Mo Cheng began to wonder whether he should go back to Fairhaven first and give the old man an invincible blow.
But after thinking about it, he decided to give up. The range of the Invincible Slash skill was not very far for the mage, and the opponent was fully capable of performing space manipulation to leave before being hit.
So mages who can flash are disgusting.
I always use Anti-Mage.
Then Principal Muzel slowly began to explain, "A batch of items ordered by the college was intercepted. I asked Director Dorothy to go and hand over the items to the relevant personnel to prevent anyone from using dishonorable means, so I hope you can help."
"As a reward, I'll give you a piece of Obolion crystal from my private warehouse."
Obolion Crystal, a crystal filled with space power, can only be created in areas where space turbulence has erupted, but its stability is extremely fragile. Once the space turbulence subsides, it will collapse.
Only a very small number of Obolian crystals can form stable and usable Obolian crystals after experiencing a series of miraculous conditions in probabilistic terms.
At the same time, this is also one of the necessary materials for Principal Muzel's magic circle involving time and space.
"The one as big as a fist?"
"If you unify the continent, I'm not in the wrong place. Otherwise, I can only give you a mission with a scale weight of 1."
Principal Muzer's answer did not surprise Mo Cheng. The fist-sized O'Brien crystal was what it looked like after 30% of it had been used. The remaining 30% was ground into powder and used as the material for the space-time magic circle.
It can be said that even if you search the entire continent of Korvale, or even in other alien spaces, you may not be able to find a piece of Obolion crystal the size of a fist.
If Principal Muzer really gave it out as a reward, the mission would at least be to kill Archbishop Alfonso, or to assassinate the Glorious Pope.
As for the unification of the continent, Mo Cheng just took it as a joke. He knew how chaotic the situation would be. There were few clean places in the entire continent. Every country and every race was involved in the war, fighting and dying.
In the end, what stopped the war on the entire continent was not even love and peace, but the sudden appearance of the Eternal Night Demon King, who killed more than 60% of all lives. The survivors could hardly even get enough to eat, so naturally they had no ability to fight.
At the same time, because the vast majority of lives died under the attack of the Lord of Eternal Night, many gods lost their faith and fell into sleep.
Ignoring Principal Muzel's joke, Mo Cheng asked for more detailed information, "So what's going on? Tell me everything you can."
"It's the research of the Elemental Mage. A few years ago, in order to carry out related research, we commissioned the elves, dwarves, gnomes, and even some rare races to build some instruments."
The old wizard said calmly, "We put in the academy's five-year research budget, plus the equivalent of a province and county in Aundair's annual material expenditure."
Mo Cheng couldn't help but secretly smack his lips when he heard this . As the hereditary earl of Aundair, Mo Cheng knew a little about Aundair. Although Aundair's land area was relatively small, due to the large number of magicians with technical advantages, its material production was actually higher than that of the surrounding countries.
The thing that cost so much to build was intercepted by someone. The old wizard was calm enough to negotiate. If it were me, I would probably just run over and scatter the ashes of the people involved in this matter, and even dig up their ancestral graves.
"Dorothy has already set off. You need to reach Napa Port in the Kingdom of Bezeko within a month."
Mo Cheng found information about Napa Port from his memory. Napa Port, although its name is a port, is actually a giant city. As an important seaport for the Kingdom of Bezeko, its shipping is extremely developed and its daily throughput is astonishing.
It is one of the important cities for maritime revenue of the Kingdom of Bezek.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Things are a little strange this time. Leave the negotiations to Dorothy. You just need to ensure Dorothy's safety when necessary, and when you are sure that you cannot bring the things back, activate a few of the instruments to cause a chain reaction and detonate them."
"Dorothy, bring the explosive enhancer with you. Ask her for it when the time comes. It's powerful enough to lift half of Napa Harbor into the air."
Principal Muzel said something extremely exciting in a calm tone.
"I'm a law-abiding citizen. I've never even littered. And you want me to blow up half the city?!"
Mo Cheng's words were very agitated, as if he was being slandered and someone was blaming him for something, and he looked extremely resistant.
"You still care about this?"
Principal Muzer sneered. Even he was a little scared of the thing wrapped around Mo Cheng. He believed that Mo Cheng was a lunatic who massacred cities for three meals a day. Now Mo Cheng said that he was a law-abiding citizen?
This is an insult to the old wizard's intelligence.
“You have to pay more!”
Don’t miss the opportunity to reap the benefits, not to mention that Mo Cheng feels that the possibility of not getting anything back in this mission is very low.
In the [Foreign Land], the profession of elemental mage is already a regular profession, and Napa Port still exists. If we work backwards from the result to the process, Mo Cheng feels that this time the matter is just a minor one.
There is no need to go to a neighboring country and blow up half of the city.
I guess so?
