It has been nearly a year since Master Aiwen and his disciples first came to Bone Prison City, and more than half a year has passed since Gu Lijia arrived in Taiwan. The situation in Bone Prison City is A lot has changed compared to when Ivan first arrived here. The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the strong rise of Ivan's master and apprentice. With the help of his powerful master, the powerful allies he forged through a strange combination of circumstances, and the successive power incidents, Aiwen's position in the Bone Cage City gradually consolidated. The strength in his hands is gradually increasing. Although he is still not a great force, no one regards him as a lucky boy from outside anymore, and it was not long ago. Aiwen also successfully entered the realm of second-level mage. A preliminary balance has been reached between strength and status. By one within a year. It is not an easy task for newly evolved non-professionals to enter the realm of second-level mages. There are many people who have spent more than five years or even more in this process. But that only refers to the cultivation level of ordinary people. It is estimated that no one will think that it is difficult for Aiwen, who has a fire physique and a lot of training resources, to advance within one year. After all, from level one to level two There are no bottlenecks. As long as you are familiar with it and have enough experience, you can naturally improve. You can achieve the same goal by spending time and money and practicing a lot. Therefore, Alvin's rapid promotion did not attract too much attention from others. At most, people would be slightly surprised that Alvin mastered the ability to deconstruct magic so quickly. After all, deconstructing magic has nothing to do with physical fitness, the focus is only on the mage's own understanding. and hard work in this competitive world. No one is much worse than anyone else in terms of diligence, so the key lies in understanding. However, apart from showing that Aiwen is not inferior to Joanna in making money, he has not shown any excellence in other aspects. In other words, I can't tell how talented he is in training. About this. People whispered that Maize, who was a master of the building, for the sake of the relationship between master and apprentice and the gold coins, gave the apprentice Ivan a few small tricks and guided him to avoid many detours! But the truth of the matter is that Ivan has not received much guidance from Maize. At least the guidance he has received is not as much as people think, and the content is relatively ordinary. Therefore, he can achieve such achievements all thanks to him. Systematic learning ability and rigorous logical reasoning ability inherited from modern society. But this kind of invisible and intangible thing cannot be discovered unless someone specially observes and records Ivan's behavior. Therefore, it is not surprising that others mistakenly think that Maize has many pointers for him. Ai Wen has heard a lot about this rumor, but he has not been in the mood to clarify it for more than half a year. In order to better control the power he obtained, Maize opened the door and accepted many apprentices. Even if Aiwen enters the realm of the second-level mage, excluding his hidden golden flame, his strength is only in the top five among Maize's many disciples. This misunderstanding is conducive to him consolidating his position as the great humble brother. "Lord Alvin, are you still going to do experiments today?" Alvin just walked out of the bedroom early in the morning. Nie, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, came forward with a respectful expression. More than half a year ago, in order to deal with Qishana, especially the "Fossils into Mud" spell. Although this spell is common, it can be used in many places. At least the problem of the hatching of worm eggs requires Nieh's help, and precisely because This magic-like thing is ordinary, so Ivan ignored this when he bought little devils before. None of the little devils he bought knew how to use this magic-like thing, so Ivan simply asked Nieuzhen to be his experimental assistant. . With Nie's cooperation, Ivan did hide the egg from Joanna when she was hatching it. However, after all, Joanna was already powerful and had many spies, and it was even more impossible for her to believe that Ivan would honestly tell her everything she knew. Speaking out, the secret of the insect eggs in the market was still not hidden from Johanna in the end. Shortly after Ivan bought the nearly a thousand insect eggs and started hatching, she came to her door with the slogan of equal interests among allies. , half of the eggs that were about to hatch were taken away. But I don¡¯t know whether it was a coincidence or Alvin¡¯s subconscious premeditation. Not only did Alvin take away the higher-level eggs, he also gave them to Johanna. That egg is actually a male ant. As we all know, in the ant world, male ants usually play the role of the queen's concubine, and are considered a solitary person. Apart from the queen, there is only one person who can command the ant army. From the name of Flying Ant, Insect Princess, she should be the immature queen of ants, so she naturally has the right to command. Therefore, the problem that arises is that Sanshanna discovered that after the eggs she grabbed hatched, the hatched ants were not only inferior to the male ants in her hands, but also started fighting after being in contact with each other for a while. , she actually couldn't control it indirectly through her male ant babies. At this time, Alvin and JoannaThe earliest hatched insect queen and male ant have already signed pet contracts respectively. It is not impossible to force Alvin to break the contract, but it is Qiao Shanna who wants to renew the contract with the insect queen who was mentally injured after breaking the contract, but she has no choice but to do so. , she could only find Ai Wen and transferred the command to Ai Wen. As for the future ownership of this batch of ants, even though she knew that the two groups of ants merged together, they would not be able to keep it for a lifetime, but Joanna refused to let go, but this was one. It¡¯s a matter of human nature. Most of these ants are not very strong individually and can only bully non-professionals. Any ordinary first-level professional can defeat them. Moreover, since the insect queen has not yet evolved into a queen ant, she cannot lay eggs. The numerical advantage cannot be formed, and Aiwen can only let them crawl in along the small gaps in the stone wall for the time being. Exploring the secrets deep in the rock crevices also revealed a lot of nearby geographical information. Let¡¯s put aside the ants issue for now. But it was said that after Nie became Ivan's assistant, he came to the market with Ivan and saw a lot of little devils who were much better than him, actually doing the irritating job of washing dishes and serving dishes. Needless to say, Immediately and conscientiously do the things within his responsibilities, for fear that competitors will take advantage of him and try to do this to him. Quite a leisurely location. "We won't do experiments for the time being today. You just need to process the magic materials that arrived according to the method I taught you Ivan glanced at the cautious Nie, shook his head and gave an order before walking out of the station. Outside is the market. A small group of heavily armed scavenger demons are now stationed in the market. More than half a year has passed, and there is still only one market outside Bone Prison City. It can be imagined that the business is booming. Originally, according to Ai. What Wen meant was that it would be best if this situation could continue forever, and he might as well stay in the station and study magic until his ability is enough to destroy the world. At that time, he would be able to go anywhere in the world. This market was often unsatisfactory. This market was founded when the power in Gulao City was in turmoil. Now, more than half a year has passed, and the political situation in Gulao City has long been stable, and people who are jealous of the market here have begun to take action. Although Ivan had the help of Joanna and Maize, he couldn't handle the large number of others, and their power was basically used in one place. There were very few people who could overcome each other. In the end, they had to compromise. Although the management power was still in their hands, 80% of the tax revenue was still in their hands. But it had to be turned over to the Bone Cage City City Hall. With such heavy losses, Ivan naturally received compensation, and the benefit he got was that the Bone Cage City City Hall promised not to open similar markets anywhere else outside the city to avoid It hurts the profits of both parties, and in order to take care of the safety of the market, Ivan is allowed to expand the force of another team. The implication is that all the quotas in this team are used to recruit serious warriors. For the purpose of safeguarding the economic interests of Ai Wen and Bone Prison City, Ai Wen shouldn¡¯t stuff them into those cats and dogs. This request is naturally in Ai Wen¡¯s wish, but he is worried that the force in his hands is not enough. ! Of course, although the result was not perfect, no matter the outcome, Maize exchanged his monthly income of one thousand gold coins for 10% of the market tax. Ask Alvin for a business in return. Of course, this business is not related to the market. Now, in full view of the public, Alvin cannot open the back door even if he wants to. The business that Joanna asked for is actually related to the market. If it is related to the death cave, then go to the death cave to smuggle corpses. When I first heard this request, Ivan almost thought that he heard it wrong. Smuggling food and weapons is very common, and it is not uncommon for people to smuggle drugs. But these are. Are there still people smuggling corpses in the world? Probably because they want to cooperate with Alvin. It is necessary for Alvin to understand the inside story. Joanna explained it secretly, and Alvin finally understood it half-guessed. Come here The undead are creatures without many other desires. Low-level undead only have bloodthirsty instincts. The more advanced the undead are, the lower this instinct is and the harder it is to influence their behavior. The most important thing in their hearts is They can only study various knowledge, or break through the bottleneck of their own strength. But how can you expect them to study how to grow flowers and plants? It is common to do various taboo experiments on the human body, and to do this kind of experiment, it is natural. A large number of fresh corpses are indispensable, and there are a lot of mummies that have been dried for thousands of years in the death cave. But if they are fresh corpses, then, After this explanation, Ivan finally understood why the undead were After several Dabicongs destroyed Gu Lijia, there was no real reason for asking Bone Prison City to ban adventurers from entering and exiting the Death Cave. Adventurers covet the wealth gained by annihilating the undead, so don't the undead covet the corpses left behind by the adventurers after their death? Sharing wealth and flesh and blood, and not taking the initiative to take action against adventurers without any reason, is probably a tacit understanding between them and Bone Prison City.
