Chapter two hundred and seventy third cunning
273 Cunning
There was also a note behind the letter. It was obvious that Ajin got the news temporarily after he finished writing the letter. Because he had no time to modify the letter, he added an additional note. Of course, it might be that the magician in charge of magic communication made a small mistake and accidentally split the letter into two.
"Appendix: Ashu Rufate, someone has already offered 10,000 Jin Oli to buy this metal."
This is really like what Ajin would say. Ash Rufat smiled in his heart. It was right for him to entrust this matter to Ajin, at least he could believe that he would not do anything better than Ajin.
His thoughts returned to the current crisis. There is no doubt that if the Chaos Wizard was allowed to continue to do this, he would not fight at all. In this case, even a person like Belar could not do it...
"Master Ash Rufate!" Another knock on the door came from outside. Ash Rufate opened the door and saw a strange soldier. Of course, it was normal for him to come here today and not recognize the other party.
"This is a gift from someone to you." The soldier handed a box to Ashu Rufate.
Ashu Rufate opened the box and saw a strange creation - made of metal, with a strange shape and a strange luster on the surface. This is not the natural luster of the object, but more like some magic effect. Because the luster is flowing.
"What is this?" Ashu Rufate asked. But the soldier had already walked away.
"Strange thing..." He took the box back to the room. The luster on it was indeed not formed naturally. After embracing the magic wind, Ash Rufate felt the magic attached to it.
This magic... seems to be very familiar?
While he was considering this issue, he suddenly felt an abnormal flow of energy. The magic wind was drawn, condensed within his perception range, and finally weaved into a spell. When Ash Rufate realized it, a glowing phantom had appeared in front of him.
"Mavin?!" Ashu Rufate couldn't help but scream. He recognized the image that suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Your Excellency Earl." Ma Wen smiled slightly, raised his hand and saluted. "I'm sure if it's abrupt."
"Visit?" Ashu Rufa decided to calm his mind. He now understood that this metal instrument was Marvin's magical positioning device - the same as the poor worm who came to see him before. Through this device, Marvin could use magic to span his phantom thousands of miles and send his shadow to the place where the device is located.
Of course, another possibility is that this thing is a cover. There is a Chaos wizard nearby casting spells... but this possibility is really not great.
Ashu Rufate already knew the various arrangements made by this Chaos Wizard when he was in Eagle City. The so-called true, false, false, false, and true were truly portrayed to the fullest by Marvin, which is amazing.
Ashu Rufate looked down at the strange magic device. Then he further embraced the magic wind. When he grabbed the magic wind, he had to face a dizzy feeling. The melting dirty and frozen slippery floating on the magic wind. Every manipulation of magic would make him hollow out his stomach. But now, he further felt a stream of dirty oil squeezed into his pores, making him feel a disgusting disgust. This nauseating feeling is related to the magic wind he came into contact with, and whenever he needs more power, especially when using magic to improve his perception, it is an inevitable result.
And this may be unique to him. Because he secretly asked other magicians and found that other people did not have such a phenomenon. Of course, those magicians thought this phenomenon was not surprising - because according to the theory, when humans use their own will to contact the power of magic, there will inevitably be some adverse reactions. Because humans themselves are not a magical creature.
He could sense the faintest fluctuations of the air between his hair and his skin. Even those unsensible things, the magic winds flowing in the air, have now displayed every tiny flow of himself within his perception. The links of the magic wind come from afar through time and space, and settle down and condense through the strange magic on this alien prop.
At least this time, this weird piece of metal is indeed the reason why Marvin appears.
He observed the metal prop again and found that the thing was hollow. Although it was made of metal, it was not as solid as it looked. Perhaps the hammer could flatten it with one hard blow, causing it to completely fail and become useless scrap iron.
"Wait, Count, I'm here with kindness!" said Ma Wen.
"The last time your kindness almost killed the queen." Ashu Rufate replied coldly.
"I believe the Count must understand that I am self-defense." Marvin replied. "If you want to hold the responsibility accountable, it is the Queen who plots me first. And what I do is just to give the Queen a little bit of punishment. You also know magic and know that spiritual competition in the realm of consciousness... Our Queen has no chance to defeat me at all."
This sentence is completely correct. A magic master competes with a little girl who is not magical at all, and even underage, for willpower... it is like an elephant competing with a mouse.
Of course, after crossing a long distance, even the strong willpower will weaken to its limit - whether Ashu Rufate knows or not, Marvin will definitely not mention it on his own initiative.
"What are you looking for me?" Ashu Rufat asked. He put the metal props in his hand aside and let go of the magic wind. Now he was able to confirm that this virtual image could not cause any harm to him - in turn, he could not do anything. The person's body was staying safely in a distant place.
"Continue with the last transaction." Marvin replied with a smile. "Do you still remember the deal I proposed?"
"I don't believe it..."
"Don't be so anxious to draw conclusions. Maybe I can help you with a little help to show my sincerity. Let me guess, are you upset about the epidemic in the military now?"
Ashu Rufate remained silent, and Marvin burst into laughter.
"Well, Lord Earl, then I'll tell you a little bit of the facts. The wizard who troubles you is named Luo Jin, a believer of Nurg. He is the scholar-type magician who is hollowing out his head all day long to study these spells that spread diseases. He claims to be inspired by Nurg, but I think it's entirely because he is a research madman."
"Why is he here, not in Gaohua City? Why is this magic..."
"Oh, this question is easy to answer. He is a...scholar. A scholar cannot tolerate that what he has not completed is taken out and used indiscriminately. Ha, okay, to be honest, that is, he has just completed this new type of spell. A particularly powerful and dangerous spell. The spell consumes less, and a magician can cast it. The casting distance is far away, and even reach the end of his vision. As for the effect... I believe you already know it. Even I have to admit that he is indeed an absolute genius in this regard. If he can go back alive this time, then he may reach an unprecedented height. Nurg will not be reluctant to show his smile to him. Of course, on the other hand, this may mean... a terrible disaster for your country."
"If he dies, is this magic... gone from this world?" Ashu Rufate asked.
"I'm pretty sure of this. Because I'm sure he hasn't had time to impart this magic to others."
"Where is he now?" Ashu Rufate couldn't help asking.
"Oh, Lord Earl, can I understand this way, you are beginning to get better of me?"
"It's true." Ashu Rufate had to answer. Marvin brought him the most urgent news.
"Okay, then let's go back to the original topic. What do you think of my request?"
“I need to think more about it.”
"Please think about it slowly." Ma Wen bowed and seemed to want to say goodbye.
Although Ashu Rufate believed that 99% of the other party were just posing, he had to speak out at this time. "Wait a minute, Ma Wen... Your Excellency."
"What are the instructions of Lord Earl?" Ma Wen smiled purely. "I am willing to serve you."
"Aren't you afraid that I will agree to you first and then break the contract?" Ashu Rufat asked. "As you said, you are easily deceived. I can get benefits first, but I don't fulfill my promise."
"Oh, no, no, of course, I believe in the character of the Count." Marvin was very calm. "I have always believed that the most important thing for a person to live in the world is to make promises. Of course, sometimes... I also have to use some necessary means to ensure the fulfillment of the agreement. I admit that although these means are necessary, they may cause unhappiness... So I have always been honest with others, first letting others believe in my kindness and sincerity, and then the next discussion will be held."
Marvin finished speaking with a smile, but his eyes were always staring at Ashu Rufate.
"I want to know where that Chaos Wizard is," said Ashu Rufate. "If you tell me this, then I will completely believe in your kindness and sincerity."
"Very happy." Ma Wen actually agreed at once, which surprised Eshu Rufate secretly. "Sir, I can be sure that Luo Jin is in the suburbs of the city of Newestria. The terrain in this area is a little complicated and easy to hide, but if you send a large number of scouts to search everywhere, I can almost guarantee that you will find him. Because as far as I know, Luo Jin's concealment ability is really not very good. Well, Nurgo's subordinates have never been good at this."
Ash Rufate took a deep breath and barely suppressed the anger in his heart. He now understood that he had fallen into the other party's trap in his words.
X@#$%, you can play with me!
"Now, I have answered the question." Marvin said with a smile without any notice of Eshu Rufate's emotional change. "Do you believe in my kindness and sincerity?"
"I want to know how to find that Luo Jin!" Ashu Rufate finally said.
"This...you haven't answered my question yet." Ma Wen still smiled.
"Well, I believe in your kindness and sincerity." Ashu Rufate had to answer. "Can you tell me how to find Luo Jin?"
"Sir Earl, since you believe in my kindness and sincerity..." A clear smile appeared on Marvin's face. This smile had been seen by Ashu Rufate, in fact, many times. Every time Ajin gets a bargain from him, he will show this kind of smile. Indeed, Ajin and Marvin are very different in appearance, but this smile is surprisingly similar.
"Now we should be able to talk about specific transactions!"
