When Malodia spoke to Jenny, her emotions were full and on point.
If it were someone else, they would probably believe it.
Unfortunately, they were facing seven pigeons.
Qi Ge looked at Malodiya and the others, thinking quickly in his mind.
“What they said seemed sincere, but there was a fatal flaw.
Malodiya and Jenny said they wanted the Sea Elf in order to pick up the names of the elven warriors from the Mithril Fleet.
If this purpose is true, is it necessary for them to tell me the information about the [Guardian Statue of the Soul]?
There is no need at all.
Even if the elves on the Sea Elf accidentally entered the Sea of ​​Chaos and died while out at sea hunting seals, the two of them are qualified enough to take back the names of those elves.
Then why did they tell me the information about the [Guardian Statue of the Soul]?
It's very simple, for the sake of logical harmony.
'Just to take back the name of the Mithril Fleet Elf.'
This reason is not enough to explain why Malodiya made predictions thirteen times in a row regardless of everything, nor is it enough to explain Jenny's series of life-threatening questions when she heard about the "Sea Elf".
Therefore, they have to tell themselves that the Mithril Fleet went out to sea to search for the fragments of the [Guardian Statue of the Soul], and there is news that the [Sea Elf] may have fragments of the [Guardian Statue of the Soul].
Only then can the logic make sense.
But while they made the logic work, they also made another more hidden logical flaw.
[The Guardian Statue of the Soul] is the foundation of the Elf Empire and a mythical building that is capable of supporting a great empire.
For such a precious treasure, all information about it should be kept top secret.
In order to get back the names of the elves in the Mithril Fleet, is it worth it for them to tell such a top-secret to a mysterious person with an unknown identity?
I can say for sure, it's definitely not worth it!
Whether the names of those elves have a greater impact on the Elf Empire, or the news of the [Guardian Statue of the Soul] has a greater impact on the Elf Empire, this is something that does not need to be discussed at all.
Elves value feelings and traditions, but they are not brainless.
Therefore, Melodia and Jenny lied. "
Oh, you elves, you lied.
Qi Ge closed her eyes gently.
"Elena told me that they didn't bother to lie or conceal anything because they were strong enough, so strong that they didn't need to lie.
But now, they have to try their best to survive, and naturally they have given up their pride and persistence.
Elena is a silver elf.
The Silver Elves are well-known in Yasha for valuing their promises more than their lives, and they are the most honest of all the elves.
But today, even the silver elves have learned to lie, and the gold elves and wood elves have learned to cheat, so it is nothing strange.
Suppose, as I suspected, Maraudía and Jenny had deceived themselves.
Then, the Sea Elf, or the Mithril Fleet, must be incredibly significant to the elves.
They have even used the information of the [ Guardian Statue ] as bait, which means that the fish they want to catch must be more valuable than the information of the [Guardian Statue of the Soul].
This is a big trouble.
Qi Ge knew that from today on, the information about the Silver Spirit must be kept absolutely confidential and must not be known to the elves.
Thinking of this, Qi Ge felt a little regretful.
“I’m not afraid of the Pirate King’s fleet, but I used the Silver Spirit to help Ernie transport her subjects last time.
Too careless. "
Qi Ge opened his eyes and decided not to expose the lies of Malaudia and Jenny for the time being.
As the saying goes, see through things but don't say them out loud, and let your friends do it.
Just when Qi Ge was about to speak, Milora suddenly spoke.
“Woo woo woo.
Fallen leaves return to their roots!
I am so touched!
Even if the hero has been buried in the sea of ​​chaos, his name must be left behind.
It is the most precious heritage and emotion of the creatures in our Yasa world!
Qi Ge, can you give them the Sea Elf and fulfill their wish?"
Qi Ge: ???
You are so noble! You are so great! You used my battleship as a favor!
I didn't expect Milora to have the attributes of a spendthrift woman. I have to keep a closer eye on her in the future.
It turns out that the kinder the creature, the more it suffers.
Qi Ge was so angry that his liver hurt, but he couldn't vent his anger, so he could only explain:
"Your Majesty, please be patient. I will try again."
Qi Ge took a deep breath and said to Jenny and Malodia:
“Your Majesties, I respect the traditions of your elves very much and am willing to cooperate with you.
Letting the deceased heroes return to their roots is also a kind of spiritual baptism for me, which can make my dirty soul purer.
Let's do this.
I don't want the [Plague Tent] and [First Aid].
When I go back and check, if the Sea Elf has the names of the crew members, I can copy down all the names free of charge and pass them to you in the conference room.
What do you think? "
Qi Ge looked closely at Marodia and Jenny.
Hearing Qi Ge's proposal, they both frowned at the same time.
Malodia said softly:
"Your Majesty, there is something you don't know.
The names that we elves leave behind before we die are not just simple names.
Until the death of our elven warriors, those names will take effect, preserving the beliefs of the dead elves.
Only the ancestral temple of our elves can lead back the faith preserved in the name.
For us, taking back those names is like taking back their souls."
Qi Ge said thoughtfully:
"Why does it sound so similar to a magic inscription?
So, what’s important is not the name, but the medium on which the name is engraved?
That carrier stores the spirit's faith at the time of death?"
Jenny nodded and said:
“It’s more or less like this.
You can understand it this way.
When the Mithril Fleet crew members began carving their names, they were performing a magical ritual.
Their sacrifice was the final step in this magical ritual.
When the magic ritual is complete, the names they inscribe will preserve their beliefs."
Qi Ge vaguely felt that something was wrong, and he lowered his voice and asked slowly:
"So, how are you going to take these names back?"
"Great! I knew that Your Majesty the Mysterious One had a kind heart and would definitely help us."
As soon as Malodia opened his mouth, he put a big hat on Qi Ge.
“As long as you can sail the Sea Elf to our Avili waters, we will send someone to pick you up.
We will escort the mysterious man and the Sea Elf to our Avili capital [Top of the Golden Dragon Cliff].
Afterwards, we will hold a ceremony at the ancestral temple on the top of the Golden Dragon Cliff to welcome back the names of those warriors.
When the ceremony is over, Your Majesty the Mysterious Man can drive the Sea Elf away freely.
In addition to the [Plague Tent] and [First Aid], we will also prepare many gifts to thank you for your kindness.
Don't worry, Your Majesty, we elves are never stingy with our friends."
Hehehe.
I believed your lies.
Qi Ge was so angry that he laughed: "So, I have to drive the Sea Elf to your territory, and then put my life and death in your hands, betting that you are good people and don't kill people and rob them?"
Jenny slammed the table and stood up, saying angrily:
"You! You are slandering our elves!
In the entire Yasa world, everyone knows that we elves keep our words and are honest and reliable!
Do you think we tell those dirty, filthy lies like you do?!"
Malodia quickly pulled Jenny and said softly:
"Don't be angry, Sister Jenny. Perhaps His Majesty the Mysterious Man just had a small misunderstanding."
Jenny and Malodia teamed up, one played the good cop and the other played the bad cop, but unfortunately, their acting skills were still a little unfamiliar in front of Qi Ge.
Two people who rarely lie cannot control their micro-expressions when they are lying.
Jenny's speech speed suddenly increased, her tone suddenly rose, and her eyes were a little evasive. She seemed angry, but in fact she was guilty.
Although Malodiya seemed calm and composed, he actually kept stroking the nail of his index finger with his middle finger, which was a sign of panic.
Qi Ge's heart skipped a beat.
This means that there is a high probability that I was right.
Jenny and the others didn't want to make a good deal at all, they just wanted to trick me into going to Avili.
By then, detaining both the people and the ship would be the least of our worries. If they knew about the Silver Spirit, there might be more trouble.
Indeed, both Malodiya and himself are believers of the goddess of fate, so perhaps we can communicate with her through her.
But there are more than one golden elf clan, Malodia. Even if Malodia does her job well, she cannot represent the overall will of the entire golden elf clan.
Although the golden elves have declined, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.
The Golden Elves are still the leaders of all the elves in Avili and have a strong influence on Avili.
The tower issue hasn't been resolved yet, so there's really no need to mess with another top force.
Qi Ge thought about it and did not refute their words. Instead, she smiled and said:
"Don't worry, don't worry.
Look at me, I almost forgot you are elves.
Elves certainly do not deceive or conceal.
How about this, I will set sail for Avili now, and when I arrive in Avili, we will continue the trade, okay?"
A smile spread across Malodia’s face:
"Your Majesty, thank you for your understanding!
Where are you now? How about we send a fleet to escort you?"
Qi Ge waved his hand and said:
"No thanks, I'll go over slowly."
At this moment, Qi Ge suddenly had an idea and realized something very important.
"Before I posted the Sea Elf, Jenny had already posted [Plague Tent for Elite-class Battleship] on the astronomy panel.
The elven shipbuilders are still there, but without the magic wood they are unable to build elven warships.
Could it be that Jenny wanted to purchase a large number of sophisticated warships to provide research for those elven craftsmen?
hiss!!
Could it be that the Golden Elves want to replicate the Golden Fleet? !
Jenny! Malodia!
You still say you have no ambition?! You still say you don’t want to restore the [Spirit Guardian Statue]?! "
The more Qi Ge analyzed, the more afraid he became.
"If my conclusion is correct..."
Qi Ge thought for a moment and came up with a tentative plan.
"By the way, Your Majesties, as you know, I am a sea hunter.
A while ago, when I was working at sea, I rescued a group of merchant ships that were drowning at sea.
In order to thank me, the owner of the merchant ship gave me a batch of magic wood, and I couldn't refuse it.
Magic wood is a good thing, it would be a waste to have it in my hands.
You elves have done the most in-depth research on magic wood. I wonder if you are interested in the magic wood in my hand?"
Malodiya's expression was a little complicated for a moment.
"Drowning merchant ship..."
Jenny looked at Qi Ge with more contempt:
"If you want to sell the stolen goods, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."
"What do you mean by selling stolen goods? This is my reward for being kind-hearted!"
The seventh pigeon was very unhappy.
"If you're not interested, forget it."
Seeing Qi Ge preparing to leave, Jenny spoke.
"Wait, what kind of magic wood do you have? Take them out and let me see."
Qi Ge sat back in his chair, changed his tone, and even his lovely clapper sounds became materialistic.
“The quantity is not huge, but it is extremely precious.
As for the magic wood, you must know more about it than I do.
5 Level 4 Magic Wood [Ice Sycamore Wood], 16 Level 3 Magic Wood [Water Wave Wood]. "
In fact, the most common magic wood in Qi Ge's hands is the fairy ginkgo wood.
But there is a fairy ginkgo tree on the Silver Spirit.
In order to prevent Malodia and Jenny from thinking of the Silver Spirit, Qi Ge took out two kinds of magic wood, both of which were not produced on the Silver Spirit.
Moreover, these two kinds of magical wood are the most commonly used in elven warships.
"Well, sure. I'll take them all. Name your price."
After hearing this, Jenny agreed immediately without hesitation for a second.
This attitude made Qi Ge more confident in his conclusion.
"Your Highness Jenny, I need the [Plague Tent] urgently. Can you give me an advance on the [Plague Tent]?
5 level 4 magic woods, 16 level 3 magic woods, this price in exchange for a [Plague Tent] is not really a bargain for you."
Jenny immediately shook her head and said:
“I can’t give you the [Plague Tent] now.
Level 4 magic wood is 15,000 each, [Ice Sycamore Wood] is relatively rare, so I’ll charge you 20,000 each.
Level 3 magic wood costs five thousand each, 16 [Water Wave Wood] costs 80,000, the total is exactly 180,000.
I'll round it off for you.
The price is two hundred thousand gold coins.
Except for us, Avili, no other force can offer such a high price.
What's more, yours is dirty.
Humph, you got it cheap. "
"Gold coins? Your Majesty Jenny, do you think I'm someone who's short of gold coins?"
Qi Ge immediately shook his head without hesitation.
"Like! No, I should say, you are!"
Jenny looked at Qi Ge with a mocking look and said:
"Heh, you're not willing to send a message that costs 1,000 gold coins, so why are you pretending to be so?"
Seven pigeons are furious:
"I'm just saving money! I can send them all together, why should I send them separately?
Saving doesn’t mean I don’t have money.”
"Sister Jenny."
Malodiya intervened in time, pulling Jenny's arm and shaking it coquettishly.
“Mr. Mysterious Man is willing to return the heroes who died on the Sea Elf. He is a friend of our elves.
You don’t want to be like this.”
"well."
Jenny sighed helplessly and said to Qi Ge:
"I can't give you the [Plague Tent], but don't you still want to learn [First Aid]?
I have the [First Aid] auxiliary skill scroll in my hand."
Qi Ge immediately said:
“No, the [First Aid] scroll is only worth about 100,000 gold coins, but there are only a few in stock on the market, so it’s quite rare, and I can’t buy it right now.
This is not what I want, it's one of my subordinates who wants it, I'm not in a hurry for the scroll."
Jenny snorted coldly and said:
"I'll give you another 100,000 gold coins."
Qi Ge pretended to think for a moment before saying:
“That’s barely acceptable.
Of course, it would be best if you could give me the [Plague Tent]. "
Jenny snorted coldly and glanced at Qi Ge.
Although she didn't say anything, her face was full of rejection.
Without saying anything, she opened the trading window.
[System prompt: Jenny wants to initiate a transaction with you].
"accept."
A trading panel appeared in front of Qi Ge.
This trading panel is very cleverly designed.
There are two buttons at the bottom of the panel: Lock and OK.
Once locked, the trading items placed in the panel cannot be taken out.
After both parties have locked in, and then clicked on each other to confirm, the transaction can be completed.
This eliminates the possibility of someone changing the transaction item at the last second.
Jenny put down the [First Aid Auxiliary Skill Scroll] and 100,000 gold coins almost instantly, and immediately clicked to lock it.
Qi Ge slowly placed the magic wood on the table and arranged it into a smiley face before clicking to lock it.
Once both parties confirm, the transaction is completed instantly.
[System prompt: Transaction successful, handling fee of 19865 gold coins has been deducted. ]
The magic wood in Qi Ge's space backpack disappeared, and the [First Aid Auxiliary Skill Scroll] appeared instead.
Space backpacks against space backpacks, ignoring distance and environment, and doing it without anyone noticing.
Trading in astronomy is really convenient, but also really expensive.
The handling fee is deducted from both ends. The same amount is deducted from Qi Ge and Jenny.
An item worth around 200,000 yuan would cost nearly 40,000 yuan in handling fees.
Nearly 20% of the processing costs.
There is no way, astronomy relies on the divine power network.
Anything involving divine power is definitely not cheap.
After the transaction was completed, Qi Ge jumped down from the chair.
He stroked his twin ponytails and said:
"Then, Your Majesties, please wait for me in Avili.
I'll give you a heads up when I'm about to arrive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Ge immediately chose to quit astronomy without wasting a second.
…
…
Seeing the loli figure opposite disappear, Jenny immediately said:
"Malaudea! Back out!"
"I know!"
whoosh!
Two white lights flashed, and Jenny and Malodiya returned to the [Prophecy Room] located in the [Ancient Temple of the Elves].
Malodia immediately took off the jewelry on her forehead and placed it on a crystal ball.
Jenny took a deep breath and said:
“This bastard can block the prophecy, but the scroll I gave him can’t.
As long as he takes out the scroll and hands it over to his men, the ownership of the scroll will become neutral for a moment.
The opportunity is fleeting, whether you can seize it depends on you, Malodiya."
Malodia nodded vigorously and said:
“I’ve been doing a long-term tracking prophecy on the scroll.
As long as that moment comes, I can locate it immediately.
Locating the scroll's position is equivalent to locating the mysterious man's position.
Once the location is successfully located, I will immediately go and ask Grandpa Golden Dragon King to let the golden dragons take us there."
As he was speaking, Malodia's crystal ball suddenly flickered and then dimmed.
At the same time, Malodia also covered his heart and supported himself on the ground with his hands.
"Malaudea!"
Seeing this, Jenny immediately reached out to help Malodia.
Malodia covered his chest, shook his head, and said:
“I’m fine, my prediction failed and it backfired.
Fortunately, the backlash was not very severe."
Jenny frowned and asked:
"How could it fail?"
"He didn't take the scroll out, he used it directly in his backpack."
Jenny opened her eyes wide:
"He wants to use it himself? Damn, cunning guy! Not a word of truth is told.
Sure enough, my feeling was right, this guy is just like Sandro, an old liar!"
Malodia looked a little uncomfortable:
"Sister Jenny, could it be that he lied to us about coming to Avili?"
"Why."
Jenny sighed deeply.
"I hope not."
But soon, she cheered up again.
“Whether it’s true or not, we have to find him.
Although he disguised himself, he also revealed a lot of information.
Female, sea hunter, eccentric personality.
Malodiya, have you thought of someone? "
Malodiya was stunned for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes wide.
“Sister Jenny, you mean Sylvia!”
“Yes, the Blue Whale, who inherited the pirate king Lionheart’s ship, is the strongest sea hunter in the Yasa world, Sylvia.
Malodiya, do you remember that when Lionheart disappeared, there were rumors that he was going to challenge the Chaos Sea.
Just in case, I mean, just in case.
Lionheart has quietly returned from the Chaos Sea?"
Malodiya was very surprised:
"It really could be Sylvia! Sister Jenny, I'll make a prediction right away."
"Don't." Jenny grabbed Marodia's hand.
"You have used up your special ability to be immune to backlash this week. If you fail, you will be hurt."
"I'm not afraid. This is my responsibility."
Jenny refused again:
“Even if you’re not afraid.
The other party can sense your prediction.
If it is really Sylvia, your prediction would be like alerting the enemy."
Jenny said softly:
“I know you’re anxious, Malodiya.
I feel the same way as you do."
Malodia asked anxiously:
"Sister Jenny, if we can't predict, how can we be sure that the mysterious person is Sylvia?"
Jenny raised her head, looked out the door, and said confidently:
“Gru is good at stealth, I’ll ask Gru to help check it out.
This guy must be in Erathia now."
Malodiya frowned: "But the whereabouts of the demigod Gru are hard to determine, and it is not convenient for me to predict him. How can we find him?"
Jenny touched her chin and smiled slightly:
"Let me check where Queen Catherine is first."
…
…
"Shielded!"
Milora's eyes widened in surprise.
"Wow!
Qi Ge, it’s just as you said, they tampered with the scroll!
The moment you used the scroll, I blocked the prophecy about you!
It turns out that they are not as innocent as they appear!
Qi Ge, how did you know?
Could it be that you also secretly learned the art of prophecy when I wasn't paying attention?!"
Qi Ge shook his head and said with a wry smile:
“I can’t be sure, it’s just a guess.
Damn it, the system couldn't even tell where the manipulation was, but it turned out to be true."
We have to inform Ke Ruoke as soon as possible and ask him to take Yinhe and hide. It’s not safe for her to wander around outside now.
What exactly is the purpose of Malodia and Jenny wanting the Sea Elf? Are they so serious about it?
Damn, one more thing to worry about.
Fortunately, the [First Aid Skills] are in hand. As long as Fei Mengmeng can master the [Artillery Skills], the [Combat Tactics] will be in hand.
Qi Ge raised his head and looked towards the direction of the Golden Sea.
The golden sea is full of waves, and the tides rise and fall endlessly.
Qi Ge sighed sadly: "It's a troubled time."
