The reason why this wily mage leader had taken the initiative to lead his team here was partly to sell him a favour and partly to beat up the Red Dragon Khuzulas.
Matthew carefully recalled Edmond’s every word and realized that there were indeed flaws in his words. The other party probably did not deliberately cover up his lies.
There were many things that were best known in secret.
Matthew would be embarrassed if he exposed him.
But very quickly.
Matthew noticed another unusual word in Edmond’s words.
“Did you just say ‘life-saving fee’, not’ protection fee’?”
Edmond explained patiently,
It’s like this. This money is paid by the dragons to the Legendary Mages led by the Seven Saints. The purpose is to avoid being slaughtered for no reason.”
Matthew was shocked.
“Do the Seven Saints like to slay dragons?
Edmond shook his head.
“There is only one person who likes to do that, and that is one of the three Holy Mages, Lady Soria.
“As Mr Capital’s most outstanding disciple, Ms. Soria is obsessed with slaying dragons.
“There was a period of time, about a few decades ago, where she searched the world for dragons almost day and night.
“Every time she found one, she would take the initiative to find trouble.
“In the beginning.
“The dragons were confused.
“Many hot-tempered young dragons started fighting with Soria.
“Then, they became the dragon scales, dragon bones, and medicinal wine in Soria’s collection cabinet.
“Very quickly.
“Soria’s infamy of slaying dragons spread throughout the world of dragons.
“Because she had gone too far.
“The remaining dragons of Aindor had no choice but to join forces.
It was mainly the red, white, black, blue, and green Pentashade Dragons. They were the ones who suffered the most injuries in Soria’s dragon-slaying operation.
“The Chromatic Dragons joined hands and fled to Eternal Gathering Island.
“The Pentashade Dragon God Baruch shed its tear into the material world before ascending to the Heavenly Palace.
“The island formed by the tear had formed a world of its own, and Baruch was able to send down divine power there.
“The Chromatic Dragons didn’t like to live on Eternal Gathering Island, but Eternal Gathering Island became their haven during that time.
“Not long after, Soria barged into Eternal Gathering Island and fought with the Pentashade Dragon God Baruch.
“The result of that fight was probably a draw.
“After that, the two sides had several rounds of negotiations.
“As far as I know, Soria had obtained what she wanted. At the same time, she had also promised Baruch that as long as Baruch’s people paid her a sum of money every twenty years, she would not take the initiative to cause trouble for the Pentashade Dragons that were active on the continent.
Of course, we all know that other than the Immemorial Dragon, the Seven Saints all have the ability to kill dragons easily.
“Therefore, in the end, this life-saving fee was upgraded to seven portions.
“The Chromatic Dragons either fled to other planes to make a living because they couldn’t bear the humiliation.
“Or they can obediently pay up, and at least the Alliance upper echelons won’t take the initiative to find trouble with them.”
At this point.
Edmond sighed,
“Speaking of which, Madam Soria is quite reasonable. She won’t take a life-saving fee from a dragon that hasn’t been active on the continent for decades.”
Matthew said thoughtfully,
“So, someone recently awakened Khuzulas?”
Edmond nodded.
“It’s possible.”
Matthew was very emotional.
The Seven Saints were truly terrifyingly powerful!
If only he had that kind of power, he could go to Eternal Gathering Island to snatch the Pentashade Dragon God’s disciples for fun.
‘ Soria is Capital’s student, Margaret is Soria’s student, and I’m learning combat spells from Margaret. Speaking of which, I’m also Capital’s disciple.” Matthew let his imagination run wild.
In short, you don’t have to worry too much about the matter of Khuzulas in the near future. If you have any thoughts about him, you can go and talk to Soria’s students. Perhaps you’ll get some unexpected gains.”
Edmond chuckled.
“It’s not convenient for us old fellows to show ourselves, but if a war breaks out between you guys over a territorial dispute, it naturally won’t violate the agreement between the Pentashade Dragon God Baruch and Soria. By the way, are you ready for the exploration of the outer plane?”
Matthew said in a deep voice,
I’ve already informed the Goddess of Moonlight a few days in advance. She didn’t respond directly, but she probably acquiesced.”
Edmond thought for a moment.
‘ Lady Assia is indeed one of the gods who are relatively friendly to humans. If she is willing to open the Moonlight Woodlands to us, then I will use a clone to host the exploration of the outer plane for you.
“This batch of mages will also contribute.
However, I have to say this first. All the data, information, and knowledge obtained from this project must be shared with the Alliance. As for the material gains, you can distribute them yourself.”
Of course, Matthew knew the rules.
He did not dare to explore the outer planes in the first place, and this time, with Edmond leading the team, he was more than happy to do so.
As for the harvest, no matter how much he took, he would still have a capital gain.
Edmond then added,
” Work is work, but that’s not the purpose of this batch of mages for coming here. This morning, I thought you would collect a ticket near the Scar of the Dead or the Umbrella, but you didn’t do so.
“I’m not sure if you have other plans or if you really don’t want to take their money, but if you do this, they will be very uneasy.”
Matthew was speechless.
He actually wanted to sell tickets to the Moonlight Woodlands.
But since Edmond had said so….
