Something's wrong with my undead

Chapter 509 Yes, It’s Me

"It can now be confirmed that the Veritas have completely repaired the magic network."

McCalla, in the study of the Lord's Mansion, after summarizing the information from various directions over the past few days, Lord George came to the conclusion.

Huihui's eyes swept over everyone present - in addition to the top executives of Macara, Jianglu and Huiyue from Cuiye Court were also there.

Over the past period of time, the eldest sister has been responsible for properly settling the refugees from the Whispering Forest in the Green Leaf Court and the surrounding areas of the Misty Valley, and is also responsible for the task of liaison between the two places.

In fact, communication skills are enough. She just needs to show up, use her face, and build up her reputation.

Therefore, in the eyes of the nobles of Nibra City, she is, to a certain extent, the representative of all the elves in the western region of the Whispering Forest, and she has close ties with the mysterious supporter behind Her Royal Highness the Third Princess, and her identity is equally mysterious.

There is also a special guest:
Mad King Solace.

The latter has been experiencing the convenience of myKara these days, and is now addicted to both the identities of "player" and "dog authority".

That makes sense.

After all, the emperor himself is the top player in the reality online game, and he can also modify the rules of the game.

However, they were never able to touch the code rules of the game - they could not change the sunrise and sunset, could not modify the gravity formula, etc. The only things they could modify were the interpersonal rules agreed upon "among the players".

To some extent, this is why Solace admires Sepitiga so much.

This person actually modified the game code and completely ruined Solace's save file.

Therefore, after learning that the restoration of the magic network might make it impossible for him to play, Solace took the initiative to apply to join this secret meeting.

"I was very curious before this. You never seemed to worry that the magic network would be repaired in advance, as if you knew when it would be restored."

Solace looked at George and asked, "Could it be that there is something wrong with the prediction in this regard?"

Huihui suddenly felt as if a thorn in her back was uneasy.

This old man is really good at judging people!

Indeed, players all know that the magic network will be repaired within 3-5 years, so they don't care much about it.

But no one expected that it would recover in more than half a year.

...

Hui Hui said stubbornly, “How can I predict this? It’s not my period. Not only does it come and go early, but even its duration varies greatly.”

Zhuoyang: "If we refer to what the rich woman said at the beginning, it seems that we can really predict..."

Hui Hui was surprised: "What do you mean? How come I don't know?"

Zhuoyang: "How could you not know? This is the news you two brought back. You said that the reason why it happened early was because the "reserve fund" of Macara was not used to repair the hole in the magic network, so the disaster happened early.

"Then by the same token, since Heine has managed this money and expanded it, it means that he has indirectly solved a large part of the bad debt for the Veritas people, so they can fill the hole more easily."

...

It seems reasonable...

Heine couldn't help but nod in his heart.

He originally guessed that it was because a big traitor like Collins was exposed in advance that the work of the Veritas people in handling the magic network was smoother.

Now it seems that this may only be part of the reason, and what is more important is what Zhuoyang said.

It’s just that the mages might not be happy to see this situation - the pollution carried on the magic net did disappear, but this part of the magic net also disappeared.

“We can’t just keep paying for past mistakes.”

Heine came to Huihui's rescue and said, "Let's look to the future. If nothing unexpected happens, the Veritas people will soon send a team to Macara, just like they did before."

"In fact, they have already set off."

Gray Moon said, "The communication line that Lord Windtalker built when he returned to Ventus has sent back the latest information. The mystics in Naldele have applied to leave, and those parasites who did nothing during the disaster have also asked the local lord to send troops to escort them until they reach the Whispering Forest." Naldele is an ancient elven city-state. It was once regarded as a symbol of the wisdom and wealth of the silver elves along with Mercury City.

But later, it was engulfed by blight and turned into the infamous miasma wilderness.

As the largest and most terrifying withered scar in the Mercury Forest, it is like a huge scar, facing Mercury City from afar.

The wizards of Veritas built seven magical communication stations around Naldelai before surrounding it with a barrier to prevent it from expanding.

For this reason, the Silver Elf Royal Court has to pay a large commission to the Veritas people every year for maintaining the barrier.

Because the money increases year by year, and because of the special location of Naldelai, once an eruption occurs, it is possible that all the withering of the three forests will be connected into a line, so this protection fee is paid by the three elves together.

Therefore, this group of mystics became one of the few entities that could unite the three great elves against a common enemy.

"There's no hurry about that."

Huihui waved her hand:

“The Veritas people may be able to quickly clear out the strange beasts and rifts around their base camp, but the rifts and strange beasts in other areas cannot disappear on their own. They just can’t move in and out of the rifts as freely as before and can’t be replenished. However, the existing number still needs external force to reduce.

"That is to say, in the short term, the secret magician team will not approach the Mist Valley. We can focus on the south and solve the problem here first."

"South? What's the problem with the south?"

Huiyue was slightly stunned. She only knew that Heine had taken people to Death Claw Mountain not long ago, but she didn't know that they had snatched back an old Deng who was more than four thousand years old from there, so she had no idea what was in the south.

"This is the information Ian sent back from Longyan City via a dedicated line."

Heine handed a piece of paper with secret information written on it to Huiyue.

After William Cummings talked with Duoduo, the two sides merged into a team and headed for Macala. The news was sent from Veritas and quickly spread to Longyan City, and then sent back by Ian.

Huiyue and Jianglu looked over together, and then their expressions became solemn.

"Melvin Cummings... I remember the name."

The eldest sister recalled: "I remember that she was the one who deceived Lord Isek of Nibla and used the Soul Furnace Array to try to destroy Belio's soul... This group of damned Veritas, first Quirkus, then Belio, is it possible that their real purpose of building so many magic communication stations is to kill all the powerful nature spirits in the forest?"

"For now, the magic communication station is indeed closely related to the spirit of nature. The reason why Belio was once polluted is that the city of Nibra is the communication hub of the magic network, and its status is not much worse than the communication point of the Withered Scar."

Heine explained: "It's just that it's more about utilization than killing. The black mud produced by the operation of the magic network will block its efficiency, so pure natural spirits are needed to help them eliminate filth and resolve the anger of the spirits.

"Nature spirits cannot tell the source of these pains, so they will endure them first, and then erupt. The subsequent eruption will be regarded as a 'disaster' by the locals, who will fight against it instead of saving it, and eventually they will fall into a vicious circle."

"This sounds exactly like the pollution in the underworld."

Solace thought for a moment, "Doesn't that mean that what you are doing is helping the Veritas solve their problems? The magic web didn't disappear, it was just purified by you. The Veritas solved the disaster so quickly, and you also contributed to it."

Heine nodded: "That's true, but we have a bigger picture, we don't care."

"Lord Heine is absolutely right!"

Huihui smiled and said, "Our goal is to save the world. Cleaning up their mess is just a convenient thing to do."

Solace always felt that the master and servant were mocking his lack of vision.

"So how do you plan to deal with the Veritas people coming from the south?" He changed the subject: "Hide? Deceive? Should I return to Deathclaw Mountain and play my role as the 'Mad King'?"

Upon hearing this, the lord and his staff looked at each other, and the latter immediately spoke:
"It is like this, Master Solace. Your presence is not included in our plan."

Solace was stunned. "Without me? Then who will play the role of the Mad King?"

Heine: "First of all, the Mad King must be a skeleton, right?"

Solace turned his gaze towards the Holy Light Skull.

The latter gave him a thumbs-up, as if to say:
"Yes, that's me."
