    One day later.  The bright sunshine pours in from the window, printing a field-shaped spot on the ground.  The breeze rustled the curtains.  An Rui sat on the chair, looking at the father and daughter opposite him with gentle eyes.  After being healed by divine magic, Isaacs looks much better now, and the wound on his back has healed, leaving only a shallow scar.  Amy sat next to her father with a happy smile on her face.  "Mr. Isaacs, there are ups and downs in life. Everyone has bad luck. Now that the parasite is dead, your bad luck has passed. What awaits you will be a new life and a new beginning. Our Overlord Chamber of Commerce is in the midst of  When employing people, there is a great need for sailing talents like you, and I welcome you to join the Overlord Chamber of Commerce. I promise that I will not treat you badly, and at least I will let you become a captain." An Rui said.  "I haven't thought about the future yet. Everything happened so suddenly. I didn't expect that you would suddenly appear and rescue me from the clutches of the parasitic monster. I still feel dizzy now, as if  Dreaming." Isaacs said.  "It doesn't matter. You can think about it slowly. I'm not in a hurry to force you to make a decision. Whether you choose to join us or take Amy out of the Chamber of Commerce and live a relatively peaceful and safe life, I will support you with both hands." An Ruiton  After a pause, he added, "If you choose to leave, I suggest you go farther. The Blade Sea is getting more and more unstable." "Yes. Everyone is always fighting and killing." Isaacs sighed.  An Rui chatted with the father and daughter for a few more words, then stood up to leave.  Walked towards the door.  The Isaacs father and daughter quickly stood up to see each other off.  When he walked to the door, Anrui stopped again and turned around and said, "By the way. I almost forgot to tell you something. After the parasite died, it left something in your body. This is what it left for you.  "A small gift." "Leave something?" Isaacs' expression changed slightly.  The parasitic monster is the nightmare in his life, and anything related to it is an extension of the nightmare and a terrifying afterimage.  "Yes, it's nothing harmful. You don't have to worry." "What is it?" "You try to mobilize all the strength in your body, and you will naturally see the thing." Isaacs looked at it in surprise.  Done, he clenched his hands into fists.  Work together with your whole body.  Hearing the sound of popping beans, his sleeves bulged up and his arms were actually thicker than before.  His eyes trembled as he thought of something.  He quickly rolled up his sleeves.  The skin on his arms was exposed.  On the skin, there are black and blue tendons squirming, sending out waves of majestic power!  "The expulsion potion is very effective. It only expelled most of the body of the parasite monster, but there is still a small part of the body remaining in your body. This part of the body belongs to the parasite monster, but it also belongs to you, and you can control it at will. This  It's a small compensation for you after the parasitic monster has committed many crimes," An Rui explained.  "No. I don't want its body! Mr. Anrui, tell me. Is there any way to get rid of all its bodies?" Isaacs said hurriedly.  "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid this can't be done because it has stayed in your body for too long. It has completely penetrated into your bones, flesh and blood, and internal organs. If all those remaining parts are removed, I'm afraid  You also" An Rui spread his hands helplessly, and the meaning was self-evident.  This "gift" made Isaacs very distressed, but he had no choice but to accept it.  As an outsider, An Rui thinks this is a good thing.  The parasitic monster is a monster that focuses on strength. It is quite powerful and is only slightly inferior to An Rui in his half-dragon state.  Part of the parasite's body remains in Isaacs' body, which can greatly enhance Isaacs' strength.  It's just that this power is a bit uglier, and those veins make people uncomfortable just looking at them.  Anrui patted Isaacs on the shoulder angrily and left the room.  ¡­ That afternoon, An Rui was busy selling items to make a lot of money.  The fleet returned from the New World with a full load, taking away a lot of good things, each of which was more valuable than the last.  What An Rui lacks now is money, so of course he has to sell these things.  The Gemstone Kingdom is a big country in the Blade Sea, second only to the Ancient Kingdom of Aram. In addition, this is the imperial city of the Gemstone Kingdom. It is really a good place to sell things, and there are no worries about buyers.  Anrui mainly sells some medicinal herbs and ores.  He found a local exchange and gave the list of items for sale to the owner of the exchange for review.  The boss scanned twice?, and was immediately in awe, because this was a large transaction.  The transaction was successfully completed. Anrui exchanged those flowers, plants and hard stones for more than three million gold coins, and stuffed them all into the space treasure chest.  Counting this money, plus the gold and silver treasures he obtained directly from the New World, the total has reached an astonishing 10 million gold coins!  Anrui¡¯s funds exceeded the 10 million mark for the first time, which made him a little excited.  ¡° Spending the money when you have it is his usual style. Keeping the money is like a pair of golden mountains, and it has no great use except to make you dizzy.  Only by spending it all can the money be effective and strengthen the chamber of commerce.  Good steel must be used on the blade, and the same goes for spending money.  What is the most lacking thing in the Overlord Chamber of Commerce now?  It¡¯s the territory!  A place to gain a foothold in the Blade Sea!  In the past, the Tyrant Chamber of Commerce has always used Xingyue Island as the center to carry out trade, but after all, Xingyue Island does not belong to the Tyrant Chamber of Commerce, and it is not considered a territory.  The New World is indeed a territory, and it is a very large territory, but it is too far away from the Blade Sea and is beyond reach.  The Tyrant Chamber of Commerce also needs a site in the Blade Sea, which can be used as a stronghold to connect end to end with the New World, forming a transportation line that can continue to make a lot of money.  For this new territory, Anrui has already made plans, and he can get it in the Gemstone Kingdom.  It just costs a little money.  The land had to be purchased. ?¡­ ?The next day.  ??In a certain living room in the Royal Palace of Gemstone Kingdom.  An Rui stood by the window, holding a wine glass in his hand while tasting the wine.  While admiring the scenery outside the window.  He travels at sea all year round and rarely sees the scenery on the shore. When he comes to the shore unexpectedly, everything he sees feels new.  Before this, he had already proposed the idea of ??purchasing an island from the Gemstone Kingdom to the officials of the palace. Because the island he wanted to buy was too expensive, ordinary officials could not make the decision at all.  This incident finally reached the ears of the Queen of Gemstone Kingdom.  The Queen said she would talk to him personally about the matter and asked him to wait patiently.  It is not difficult to wait for a distinguished queen, and the wine provided by the palace is indeed good.  An Rui has never seen the Queen of Gemstone Kingdom in person.  But he knows the appearance of this queen.  In his mind, the face of a middle-aged woman appeared. The woman was old but still charming, and her temperament was very noble.  It is definitely not comparable to ordinary women.  The Queen of Gemstone Kingdom is famous far and wide.  No wonder the parasitic monster would be so bold as to take advantage of the queen and come all the way here.  ¡°If An Rui hadn¡¯t killed the parasitic monster, I don¡¯t know if the parasitic monster would have succeeded After all, An Rui had indirectly dealt with the Queen of the Gemstone Kingdom before.  The S-level mission he took on in the World Business Alliance was commissioned by the Queen of the Gemstone Kingdom.  This time, he could finally deal with the Queen of the Gemstone Kingdom face to face.  A few more minutes passed, and an official came in and asked Anrui to follow him.  Claiming that Her Majesty the Queen happens to have time now, she plans to have a good chat with An Rui about purchasing the island.  An Rui followed the official out of the house.  Passing through the corridor, we came to a large hall.  The main hall is large in area, and the floor is paved with spotted slates. The slates are as smooth as mirrors, and the light can be used to detect people.  Officials and soldiers in different clothes stood on both sides, and several of them turned their attention to An Rui.  At the end of the hall was a stone platform two yards high, with a gorgeous chair on it, and Her Majesty the Queen was sitting on it.  Her Majesty¡¯s name is Eliza.  She is a tall, middle-aged human woman with well-maintained skin. She looks like she is in her early twenties, but her actual age is much older than that.  Wearing a well-tailored royal robe, she sat on a throne, with a crystal crown with sharp edges on her head.  In the center of the crown is a gem as big as an egg.  Under the gaze of many officials, Anrui walked up to Queen Eliza and gave a gentlemanly salute.  "The Tyrant Chamber of Commerce I have a certain impression of your chamber of commerce. It was you who helped me pick those rainbow flowers back then." Elisa spoke with a serious and condescending voice.  "It was an impressive adventure, but fortunately the benefits were good." An Rui said.  "It seems that your Overlord Chamber of Commerce is running well, otherwise you wouldn't come to Gemstone Country to buy an island. Not everyone can afford an island. And what you want to buy is Red Diamond Island, which is a militarized island.  There is a military fortress on the island that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. This kind of island is even more expensive. " "In troubled times, you always need a place to settle down. I hope that the Overlord Chamber of Commerce can have a place to rest while doing business.  " "Red Diamond Island is indeed a good place. It has an excellent geographical location, close to the Endless Sea and far away from the core of the Blade Sea. There is also a military fortress on the island and the ability to protect itself.  But I never said I wanted to sell this island. This is an island in Gem Country.  " "His Majesty did not say that he wanted to sell the island. I came to buy it myself.  But I think His Majesty¡¯s attitude has shown everything. If you are determined not to sell the island, you won¡¯t waste time summoning me, right?  "The queen acquiesced to Anrui's words. "That is indeed the case. If she had not been tempted, she would not have summoned Anrui. She could have asked the officials to refuse directly. "Red Diamond Island will be very expensive."  "Eliza said. "I'm rich.  "An Rui shrugged. "Then I'll make an offer.  " "I'm all ears.  " "Ten million gold coins, give me this money, and Red Diamond Island and all the military facilities on the island will be yours. I will only take away the soldiers and sailboats on the island.  This is a fixed price. No counter-offers are allowed. If you can't get the money, please take it back.  "The Queen looked at An Rui condescendingly. Ten million gold coins, this is a number that makes people surge with adrenaline. The officers and soldiers in the hall were breathing rapidly and looked at An Rui with burning eyes. Waiting for An Rui  90% of these people think that An Rui can¡¯t spend so much money. Even if he can come up with this money, there is no need to spend so much money to buy an island.  Value. ¡°Deal.  An Rui replied happily, "I can pay the money in one lump sum today."  "" In the lobby of a hotel in the Imperial City of Gemstone Kingdom. It was night, and several glass lamps were lit in the hall, and a fire was lit in the fireplace, with a half-cooked roast chicken on top.  The men were sitting in different seats. They were drinking and chatting. All of them were dressed in rough clothes, and some of them had fierce tattoos. The lights illuminated their faces.  They looked ferocious, and many of them had scars on their faces. There were more than a dozen tables scattered throughout the hall. Only one table was close to the fireplace, and the other tables were deliberately distanced from this table.  The drinks and dishes on this table are much richer than those on the other tables. There are four people sitting around this special table, one of whom is wearing a black robe.  Behind his robe, there was a silver giant sword that was as tall as his body. The firelight reflected on the sword, shining brightly. The people in the room all looked vicious, but he was the most vicious one, with layers of black color.  The eyes with baggy eyes are like a pair of lizard eyes, cold and ruthless. The second person is an old wizard wearing a pointed hat, with a monocle on his eyes. The third person is.  A priest, but the cross decoration on his body is not white, but black. The fourth man is wearing armor, only his head is exposed. He is bareheaded and has a pair of wings tattooed on his head.  Their name is Cruz, and they are the leader of this group of pirates, called the Demon Soul Pirates. They used to stay in Pirate Bay and use Pirate Bay as their base to burn, kill and loot at sea.  After the Buluo Empire captured them, they lost their base, and the situation in the Blade Sea was turbulent, so they became much more honest. Recently, they were running around on boats, looking for a way out in the future.  They have seized the ships of this country, and they are not in trouble with the Gemstone Country, and they can travel freely here - as long as they don't mess around. "My first fight was in the country.  When I was nine years old, my brother snatched one of my toys that day. I was so angry that I hit him several times with a red-hot iron rod.  He was rolling on the ground in pain and screaming like a slaughtered pig.  I was afraid that my father would come back to deal with me, so I ran away with my clothes and money, and I embarked on a road of no return.  That incident made me understand that life is full of turning points, and a sudden turning point may completely change your life.  " Bruce was chatting with a few capable men around him at this time, telling the past events of his childhood with a calm expression. The door of the hall was suddenly pushed open, and a pirate who was responsible for guarding the door led a mysterious man wearing a mask.  Walking in. The mysterious man looked at the situation in the room, and his eyes swept over the pirates one by one. His eyes betrayed him, and drops of sweat seeped from his forehead and ran down his skin.  Sliding. This situation is like a chicken breaking into a beast's den.bsp; "Captain, this guy said he has valuable news to sell to you." The gatekeeper yawned and pushed the mysterious man wearing a mask.  Cruise put down the wine glass in his hand, glanced at the mysterious man, and frowned: "What news is it?" "He refused to tell me, and had to tell it in front of you." The gatekeeper shrugged.  .  Cruise turned to look at the mysterious man and said with his lips: "Boy, you have seen me, now you can tell the news. If this news is really valuable, I don't mind rewarding you with a few silver coins.  "This news," the mysterious person said, "is worth more than a few silver coins." "How much do you plan to exchange this news for?" "Cruz was stunned at first, and then laughed.  He laughed, his laughter making the whole room tremble.  His laughter stopped suddenly, then he grabbed a dagger on the table and threw it at the mysterious man.  The dagger turned into a ray of cold light and flew past the side of the mysterious man's face, tearing open the mask.  The mask fell down, and the mysterious man revealed his true face. He was just an ordinary-looking man with a face that was hard to remember.  "Ah!" Everyone exclaimed.  "Boy, no news in the world is worth ten thousand gold coins. It's okay if you want to daydream, but don't waste my time here. You know, I don't have a good temper." Cruise said coldly.  "This news is really worth 10,000 gold coins, otherwise I would not dare to come to you to sell this news. Someone has recently made millions of gold coins, and the news I want to sell is related to this." Everyone said with a trembling face.  .  The news is obviously not as tempting as the word millions of gold coins.  Cruise became a little interested in the news, his expression softened slightly, and he said, "Then tell me what kind of news this is. If it is really worth ten thousand gold coins, I will consider making this deal."  "Someone has found a new continent, a new continent that no one has ever set foot on. There is gold and opportunities everywhere, and there are also some stupid natives who can exchange some scraps of copper and iron for gold or even more valuable ones.  Magic Diamond." Dazhong swallowed hard, "Give me 10,000 gold coins, and I will tell you the route to this new continent."
