Constructing-Style Wizard - Chapter 490

Chapter 490: 160. Preliminary transaction_2

“Thank you, Mabel. Gold bars are indeed much more convenient for me than Union Coins.”

Mabel responded with a smile. She temporarily interrupted the work of the magic pen, letting the busy little things fly back to the pen holder.

The sound of writing in the study room stopped.

Mabel looked out the window. The sunlight outside the house sprinkled golden light on her cheeks, and her earrings and pendant glittered in the sunlight.

The smile on her lips gradually vanished, and her expression looked somewhat melancholic, like a beautiful yet sad sculpture.

Mabel looked at Noland Lee and said with a bitter smile:

“I’ve been living here for ten years. When I came, I was full of confidence and determined to return with abundant research results. Now, I am almost empty-handed. This Gold Island is really evil. First, the Death Herald Guild’s ten years of research results were destroyed, and then we Elemental Judgement were forced to stop our research. I don’t know if the next magic research institution in the Tatis Empire and the Golden Federation will also be as rough as us.”

“The forced termination of Elemental Judgement’s research is not your fault, Mabel,” Noland Lee said:

“The Alchemy Cathedral collaborated with extraterrestrial space pollution beforehand. You discovered the collusion between the two parties in time. You applied to the Wizard Advancement Association to terminate the research, not for your own reasons, but to draw a line between Elemental Judgement and the Alchemy Cathedral that was contaminated with extraterrestrial space pollution. I think this approach is fine.”

Mabel’s bitter smile on her face became even more intense:

“I know, Ray Lee, the mistake is not mine. If I had known about the secret cooperation between the Alchemy Cathedral and extraterrestrial space pollution earlier, I wouldn’t have wasted ten years of time here. When I think about it, I feel regretful.”

Mabel leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes, and gently pressed her eye sockets with her fingers:

“I am a person who strictly abides by contracts. What is written in my contract with the Alchemy Cathedral, I will do it one hundred percent. They do not allow me to explore the depths of the Fissure Corridor, can’t check the situation in Black City, and can’t leave the Manor and Sector 8 without permission. I did all these things. I longed to gain the trust of the Alchemy Cathedral with my own compliance. As it turned out, this was wishful thinking on my part. If I had arranged a secret agent to enter Black City earlier to investigate the situation there and find the traces of extraterrestrial space pollution, I might not have spent ten years here.”

Noland Lee maintained a calm expression on his face, but shook his head secretly in his heart.

Arranging intelligence personnel to investigate Black City and the Spire is useless. Because the pollution of the Blood Sun Seal is concentrated on the Angel Seed, the Angel Seed is in Nicolette, and Nicolette’s appearance is just a malnourished Aberration.

Secret agents would not only be unable to find the specific whereabouts of extraterrestrial space pollution but also risk being cursed by Nicolette and become an Aberration.

In short, under the strict defense and careful planning of the Alchemy Cathedral, only those who master the Deconstruction Core System have the chance to glimpse the truth of the matter.

It’s the same for Mabel, as well as for Battle Wizard Gardner and Kevin, who can ultimately only see one side of the matter.

As Noland Lee faced the beautiful lady who was pouring out her heart’s journey to him, he chose to divert the topic from her failed experience.

As the saying goes, it’s better to blame others than blame yourself.

Noland Lee felt that this was suitable for consoling her.

“Mabel, since the Alchemy Cathedral chose to collude with extraterrestrial space pollution, will there be any new First Level Magic Research Institute appearing? I doubt that after other wizard forces hear this news, they would still be willing to station in Union City.”

“I’ve thought about this question.” Mabel opened her eyes, pondering thoughtfully as she said:

“The old wizard forces will definitely keep their distance from the Alchemy Cathedral and will not be willing to establish a Magic Research Institute here. But emerging wizard forces are not necessarily the same. In fact, after I told the Professor about the situation here, many emerging wizard forces have come to inquire about the details of Union City. These forces should all be interested in establishing a Magic Research Institute here.”

“For example…” Noland Lee continued to guide the topic.

After thinking about it, Mabel didn’t hide anything from Noland Lee:

“For example, Soul Shaper Gilbert. This Lecturer Professor is the most enthusiastic about it. He asked me many questions. It can be seen that he is very eager to send wizards into Union City and establish the next Magic Research Institute.”

Noland Lee had a slight fluctuation in his heart.

Before, he judged that Soul Shaper Gilbert might have obtained part of the Soul-stealing Overlord’s inheritance. Both of them mastered the two techniques, Soul Extraction, and Soul Shaping, which was the most compelling evidence.

Was Gilbert so interested in Union City just for the research of the souls of Aberrations? Could he possibly have secretly cooperated with the Blood Sun Divine Seal Descendants, helping them to open up the Pollution Zone again?

Noland Lee smelled a trace of conspiracy.

However, that has nothing to do with him.

He and Denise Green had already decided that when Elemental Judgement left, the two of them would leave as well.

The First Level Magic Research Institute established by Elemental Judgement in this place was equivalent to the stay of the Wandering Wizards.

When the sky collapses, the Research Institute of Elemental Judgement would be the first to take the blow.

After Elemental Judgement leaves, the next Magic Research Institute will take at least half a year to be officially established.

During the six-month-long gap, Union City will not have a Magic Institution. Local wandering wizards have no backing. If something really happened, the Alchemy Cathedral would be the first to crack down on the wandering wizards
