Chapter 55 Intelligence and Return to Blue Star 【For further reading】

It is undoubtedly a wise choice to accept Ophelia as a slave girl.

"Do you have any ideas to add to the products in the next stage?"

Chen Xuan put his arms around his chest and asked her for her opinion.

It could be seen that the half-elf lady had already prepared a draft, she lowered her head and thought for a moment, and then said seriously.

"The sale of bicycles takes a while to promote."

"I have tried riding it many times, its practicality is beyond doubt, and there is still potential for the future..."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan couldn't help raising his hand and asked a new question.

"You said the West End Blacksmiths' Association bought the first bicycle."

"Is it possible that the other party will launch counterfeit products?"

Ophelia shook her head decisively.

"It's hard!"

"It's not that the Blacksmiths Association can't make similar vehicles."

"Those crafty Ironforge dwarves can turn ingots into anything."

"But the problem is the cost!"

"The frame of the bicycle you brought is very strong, the steel wire inside the hub is tough, and the soft leather on the outside is also exceptionally wear-resistant. Even the technique of inflating and sealing is quite clever."

"The Blacksmiths Association wants to imitate it. If black iron is used, the cost will definitely be higher than 450 crowns. If wood is used, the durability will be greatly reduced."

"As for the soft leather outside the hub, it can only be replaced with animal skin or monster skin, and the cost is not low."

"In other words, even if it is really imitated, it will not have any competitiveness at all."

Ophelia is organized and has a keen intuition for products.

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, expressing that he understood.

"And what about the news I asked you to inquire about?"

After talking about the business, it's time to talk about the secret door passage.

I saw the smile on Ophelia's face restrained, showing a solemn expression.

"Master, I checked many classics and guild records related to monsters, and finally found the record about the secret door passage!"

"The so-called secret door passage is a joint ceremony!"

"It can make several monster burrows within a certain area resonate continuously."

"Every resonance point is a secret door passage!"

"During the duration of the channel, the restrictions on monsters in the crypt will be lifted."

"This method can make the monster burrow summon a large number of monsters in a short period of time."

"In addition, multiple secret door passages can jointly open up high-level passages to summon those terrifying monsters to descend."

With this explanation, Chen Xuan immediately understood the monster's motives!
The so-called secret door passage is nothing more than a ritual that can "explode soldiers" in a short period of time.

You must know that the cave monsters have a limit on the number of gushes every Naroa day, which can be understood as "refresh".

But even if monsters emerge, they will soon be hunted down by adventurers.

After all, monsters are full of treasures, and killing monsters is tantamount to making money.

This is a state of balance that has been formed in most of Naroa for hundreds of years.

Under such circumstances, it is tantamount to nonsense for the monsters to gather enough numbers to counterattack the town.

It's just that the balance is always broken, just like powerful adventurers and mercenary groups can destroy the crypt.

The monsters also have the means to start a counterattack.

And the secret door passage is one of them.

It involves the unique ritual system of monsters, which also requires cumbersome preparations.

Seeing the master's pensive face, Ophelia then added softly.

"According to the data of the Adventurer's Guild, in the past two Naloa months, the number of farms/farms/ranches/forest farms that have been destroyed in Magtan City has reached 107, and the number of dead registered adventurers is 2797. Foreign mercenaries Unknown, the total number of deaths of urban residents is more than 6000, and there are still a large number of livestock..."

"A senior adventurer team found that the external monsters are more irritable than before, and the gathering is more obvious."

"Combined with the clues you provided, it is indeed possible that the surrounding monster caves are preparing unknown rituals!"

"By the way, this is a map of all the proven catacombs within a radius of two hundred miles of Magtan City..."

It has to be said that Ophelia's ability in business and administrative affairs is far better than that of Kitty Cat.

With her level, if she is taken to Blue Star, she can work as a secretary as long as she receives education.

Reaching out to take the parchment map, Chen Xuan frowned and nodded.

"I see, I'll take care of this."

"Then do you want to inform the guild?"

"After all, it's about the safety of Magtan City. As long as the information is true, you will be rewarded with thousands of crowns."

Ophelia asked cautiously.

Chen Xuan had his own ideas about this.

"Not yet..."

"At least not for these few Naloa days."

As he spoke, he took out a few Mithril coins, about one thousand crowns, and handed them to Ophelia.

"Use this money to issue several commissions, specifying to conduct ritual investigations on some caves."

"Don't mention the Forest of Eya, I'll go there myself!"

"There are so many demon caves around, and you can always meet a few who are building secret door passages!"

"I may be away for a few days in the future, and I will notify you on the walkie-talkie when we meet next time."

Chen Xuan's order is implemented in her soul contract.

Ophelia couldn't refute at all.

She grew up in Magtan City and has a strong sense of belonging here.

So instinctively want to protect the town.

But Chen Xuan obviously had her own considerations, so she could only choose to obey.

"I understand Master..."

……

After the two parties parted, Chen Xuan rode his bicycle non-stop to the largest magic firm in the western district.

After some bargaining, he bought a magic scroll that he had fancy before at a high price of 2580 crowns——

——The third-order holy light magic scroll [The Caress of the Holy Spirit]!
Its effect is simple, that is, to heal and restore limb trauma.

It can achieve the amazing effect of regeneration of severed limbs without leaving obvious scars!
Unfortunately, this magic has little effect on organ diseases and injuries.

Because in Naroya, the organs involve a finer field and require higher-level healing magic.

In addition, he also spent 2700 crowns to buy a magic necklace called [Azure Guardian].

This necklace needs to be charged, you can input magic essence, and you can also use magic seeds.

It can release the magic of the same name [Azure Guardian], which has a good defense against long-range attacks. Because it cannot weaken the impact, it has limited defense in melee.

In addition, Chen Xuan also bought more than a dozen first- and second-order spell scrolls.

After such a trip, it actually cost six or seven thousand crowns.

After everything was ready, he and the cat girl returned to Rat Alley.

When the two entered the shed, Rebecca's mother was vomiting in the bucket.

Her condition has seriously deteriorated, and her life may not be long.

Little Nick is puffing out his bloated belly sensiblely, and hot water is burning.

Chen Xuan glanced silently, then turned to look at Rebecca with a sad face.

"This time I'm leaving for two or three Naroa days."

"wait me back."

"Yes, master..."

The cat girl bowed her head in response.

He didn't stop after he finished speaking, and directly activated [Crossover].

As the singularity flickered, several dark coins fell to the ground.

"Ding ding ding ding..."

The crisp sound echoed in the sour smell of the shed.

Trembling, Rebecca picked up the eight dark gold coins.

When he raised his head again, his red eyes were filled with tears.
