The mage arrives

After a while of twitching, Jill gave Gordon another smug smile.The eldest lady seemed very proud of being able to see through Gordon's true intentions hidden behind the decree.

Gordon was indeed impressed by the young lady of the Phoenix family.When the two first met, she was just a spoiled little girl, but now, she has grown up.

However, Jier still hadn't fully figured out Gordon's deeper intentions in promulgating the decree on preferential treatment for adventurers.

In the decree, Gordon not only explained the secrets in Vesula Mountain, but even faintly revealed the information of the four elemental keys.

Although I have decided to rely on my own strength to produce unavailable elemental keys, it would be best if I could get the real one.

With Gordon's paper decree, if someone is interested, it is easy to find information about the element key.At that time, there may be adventurers who hold genuine elemental keys and enter the Haiwen Peninsula.And Gordon may be able to discover the traces of these elemental keys with the help of Hernandez's eyeliner in the taverns and hotels in various towns.

Each of these four elemental keys has distinct characteristics, and emits unique energy fluctuations all the time.It is not an easy task to completely hide this kind of item.

Of course, the possibility that Gordon can use this decree as bait to catch the real elemental key is not too high.

This is just a supplementary measure he took based on the principle of "one thing, two hands ready".

"Raise the mainsail!"

At this moment.The shouts of the sailors on the battleship came over.

Ji'er knew that the fleet was about to arrive, and the time she would stay on the Haiwen Peninsula could only be counted in minutes.

"Gordon..." Ji Er's tone hesitated. "You...will you come to visit me in Changxia Province?"

"Of course. I will definitely come to your house as a guest after I finish my work on Vesula Mountain and the territory stabilizes," Gordon said.

Gordon did plan to go to Changxia Province.But the main purpose is to meet the head of the Phoenix family, Jier's father.In addition, maybe I will go to Port Doron, the base camp of the Church of Dawn, and meet Reinas.I don't know how the lady paladin is doing now.As for Miss Jier, it's in his meeting sequence.Not very far ahead.

But in the current atmosphere, if he said "I'm going to Changxia Province, if I'm free, I'll drop by to see you", he would definitely make the girl very angry.

So sometimes, you have to lie or you have to lie.

"Don't break your promise." Ji Er stared at Gordon in a daze.The mage looked at the girl's big clear wine red eyes, and nodded involuntarily.

"I...my 17th birthday is coming up."

at last.The eldest lady of the Phoenix family suddenly threw out an inexplicable sentence.Then he turned and left as if fleeing, and boarded the battleship.

Gordon felt that the girl seemed to be hinting at something, but in view of the character of this young lady who was very dishonest and unable to express herself clearly, Gordon was too lazy to bother to guess.

"Brother, don't hurt Ji'er in the future. She is a good girl, but she just doesn't know how to express her feelings correctly." Xiona brought the two sisters, Yi Lei and Yi Lian, to Gordon's side.

"Sister." Gordon shrugged, "I don't think I have the talent to hurt girls unintentionally. That's the patent of a playboy like Donne. As for Jier's thoughts, I actually guessed some, but In view of the identity of the other party, this matter needs to be cautious."

"Hmph... Brother, aren't you also a villain who provokes girls everywhere?" Xiona whispered.

Gordon shrugged noncommittally.

He knew that it was indeed impossible for him to be the kind of man who loved only one woman wholeheartedly.But he will not be the kind of stallion who only acts on the physiological impulse of the lower body, or a hypocrite who shouts "I only love one", but goes around to tease women.

On the premise of abiding by your own moral values, everything will be fine.

Unlike the coy young lady, the communication between Gordon and Xiona was much smoother and more natural.After all, they are brothers and sisters who have lived together for many years. Sometimes, even if they don't say a word, they can understand each other's mind with just a look or a movement.

After chatting with Xiona for a while, Gordon looked at the little maids again.Although the two little girls are looking forward to the upcoming trip, they still feel a little bit reluctant when they think of leaving Sea Cliff Fort, their parents and their master.

"Remember, don't be too playful, and take good care of the lady. At least don't let her attend the martial arts tournament without even combing her hair." Gordon pinched the round faces of the two little girls.The touch is tender and smooth, and one can't help but wonder whether other parts of the two sisters are also so attractive?

"Brother, I'm not as sloppy as you said." Xiona punched her brother in the chest angrily.

Gordon smiled, and took out an exquisitely shaped bamboo basket from the dimensional bag: "These small snacks should be enough for you to enjoy along the way. Pity me, a majestic five-ring mage who makes high-level magic props and writes magic. The hands of the scroll, for you little greedy cats, have to deal with flour, honey, and cream all day long..."

Too bad his complaints were all but ignored.After Yi Lei opened the bamboo basket, including Xiona, the three girls were immediately attracted by the fragrance inside, and the exquisitely shaped snacks couldn't move their eyes.

Especially the maids and sisters, who were far less self-controlled than Xiona, almost couldn't bear it anymore, and picked up an almond cookie and put it in their mouths.

"Hey, two gluttons. I hope that after returning from the Changxia province, there won't be two more chubby girl maids by my side..."

Gordon shook his head, watching his sister board the ship, and the fleet left the port.

After the Phoenix family's fleet left, Gordon unhurriedly prepared to explore Mount Vesula according to his own plan.

Gordon has asked the Austrian Federation to spread the "Adventurer's Preferential Decree" to all parts of the country by using the magical communication network they established across the country in Freyton, but it still takes time.

Moreover, in this era of inconvenient transportation, it will take some time for adventurers from all over the world to come to the Haiwen Peninsula, which is located in the remote south.

Even relying on the trade network of the Phoenix family, it took more than ten days for Gordon to make a large number of high-quality gemstones for the elemental key. They were divided into four batches before they all arrived at Sea Cliff Fort.

According to the captain who was in charge of escorting the goods, the Phoenix family visited almost all the gem dealers in the entire Changxia province before they could collect Gordon's goods.It was also the first time he had seen such a large demand.

If it wasn't for the connection with the Phoenix family, Gordon alone would have been unable to gather the materials for making the elemental key in such a short period of time even if he had money.

A successful mage must have a huge material foundation behind him.Gordon knew that if he didn't have this territory, it would be nothing but delusional thinking to become a higher-level mage.

After gathering together the materials for making elemental keys, more than ten days have passed since Gordon promulgated the decree on discounts for adventures.The news gradually spread that adventurers from the neighboring Changxia Province had already entered the Haiwen Peninsula.

And Gordon, after he issued an order to strengthen law and order and strictly prevent disturbances from outside adventurers, he plunged into the underground laboratory and started the production of elemental keys.

However, although according to the information in Brian's mind, all the conditions for the cottage element key are met, and Gordon has an advanced underground magic laboratory, but there are still setbacks in the process.

"Hmm..." On the long obsidian table engraved with green magic patterns, Ania groaned in pain, and her petite body collapsed powerlessly on the cold, bright table.

Because the ice goblin queen didn't persevere, the entire magic circle fell into silence again.

In the groove made of mithril in the center of the long table, there is a black iron key.Scattered on the surface of the key, the originally crystal-clear gemstone powder also lost its luster and became like black sand.

"Anya, are you alright?"

Gordon walked to the long obsidian table and held out his finger.The petite ice goblin queen supported Gordon's fingers and stood up slowly.

"It's nothing, master, it's just that I feel a little tired because of the excessive magical energy flowing through my body. Just take a rest." Ania said softly.

"That's all for today, and tomorrow will be a day off."

Ania shook her head: "I'm fine, master, the time for you to enter Vesula Mountain is getting closer, we must hurry up."

"Although your body is fine, if you let fatigue accumulate, you will have serious problems." Gordon dismissed Ania, who wanted to continue the experiment, "Don't forget, our lives are connected. I can feel Seeing changes in your physical condition. Be obedient, sleep well, have a good meal, and recharge your spirits before we talk."

After listening to Gordon's words, Ania's delicate face seemed to freeze.She hugged Gordon's fingers, and the warmth from them was a special feeling that Her Majesty the Queen, who lived in a world of ice and snow, had never experienced before.

"what happened?"

Ania came back to her senses and said shyly: "It's nothing, master. It's just that you have invested in me this kind of human emotion called 'concern', which I have never experienced before."

Thinking of the previous life experience of this little Her Majesty the Queen, Gordon did not find it strange.Even in the main material world, before her, she had only come into contact with the great Nesser arcanist named Antik Ionidas, the only human being.Obviously, the mage is not a humane guy.

At this time, Brian also ran over waving his fleshy tentacles, and said excitedly: "Master, I know the reason for our failure!" (To be continued...)
