Chapter 423 Selection
Seeing this somewhat magical scene, Leah opened her eyes slightly and wanted to ask Don’t dare to make a sound.
“It was a magical contract between me and someone else, and the time just came, so I just broke it.”
laughed, Anves briefly explained what had just happened, then glanced back at it. The medicinal herb in the hands of a young girl.
“However, this is not something you should pay attention to. Get a new dragon’s breath grass and reprocess it until you can guarantee successful completion of the process without distraction.”
p>
Watching the girl continue to handle the alchemy plant in her hand, Anves sat back in his seat, tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers, and began to think for a while.
Anves also has a certain understanding of the character of the [Ring of Time and Space] Vernica.
The spar on the pendant shattered, indicating that Albins had been in contact with Vernica. And just like the development of the previous life, Vernica was very satisfied with him, and even came forward to help him release the contract on her body.
Because of his previous agreement with Orbins, the latter’s current status is Olivendi guest official, although only in name, which also led Vernica to think twice.
Maybe Vernica doesn’t care about herself, but because of her status as the president of the continent’s Magic Council, she not only represents herself, but also the continent’s Magic Council behind her.
If Albins retains that identity when she becomes her direct student, it is equivalent to sending a signal to the outside world.
The Continent’s Magic Council has shown goodwill to the Olivendi family.
Vernica is impossible because of her own will, and it affects the Magic Council behind it.
And when Anves contracted with the Orbins, it was a personal rather than an Olivendi family identity.
Therefore, [The Ring of Time and Space] 80% will send someone to write to him. As for the specific content of the letter… Anves didn’t even need to predict, and could guess it just by guessing.
I just hope he can promise to cancel the guest official contract, and maybe promise to give some generous remuneration.
But unfortunately, what he wants now is not these.

….….
On the other side, in the pure white tower of Orahian, the city of the sky, a girl with black hair and silver eyes Sitting on the throne at the top of the tower, quietly reading the letter in his hand.
For a moment, she released the letter, letting the paper fall from her fingers.
In the process of falling to the ground, the color of the letter began to darken rapidly, and the texture became fragile, as if it had spanned countless years.
In the end, the letter turned into dust the moment it touched the ground and melted into the rock.
There is nothing wrong with the letter itself, it was indeed written by Anves himself recently.
It’s just that the content of this letter was a bit unexpected.
In her letter to Anves, she did, as Anves guessed, expressing hope that Albins would be released from the contract. And the reward is nothing but a chance for her to get out.
She made this request not just because of her own identity.
The most important thing is that before the serious injury retreat, [Stargazer] Brunz had already said hello to her and [Mystery Seeker] in advance: Do not have anything to do with the Four Great Families of the Gloria Empire !
At the same time, she also mentioned in the letter that Albins owed Anves a favor, and hoped that it would be written off.
As compensation, she could also grant him a request that would not harm the interests of the Magic Council.
As a ninth rank limiter, she got a chance and a request in exchange for another Pamir student who didn’t even reach the fourth rank. Even for the descendants of the Olivendi family, this condition has been quite sincere.
And Anves did not refuse her request. On the contrary, he expressed his gratitude and panic to His Majesty [Ring of Time and Space] for his kindness in his reply.
At the same time, Anves promises that he will take the initiative to terminate the contract with Albins, and at no cost, it will be a gift to congratulate his friends on the sky.
Standing up in silence, Vernica’s eyes drifted into the distance.
The content of such a letter indicates that although the other party agrees to one of her requests, it is not ready to accept her kindness.
In other words, this behavior means that the reason for Anves’s termination of the contract is not for her benefit, but really for the future of Albins.
Even for the second request, Anves said nothing in his reply, obviously not wanting to agree.
In the heart of this little fellow of the Olivendi family, his importance has reached this point? Even surpassing one of my favors?
Although she hit a soft nail, Vernica wasn’t angry, she just felt a little ridiculous.
To refuse a favor from a ninth rank Peak powerhouse just for a trifling third rank sorcerer?
“Alright, then let me see if your choice is correct.”
Muttering to herself, Vernica took out a crystal ball, Record the whole process of this incident, and then send it to Albins.
Whatever Anves might think, it’s a good thing her students have friends like this.

….….
In the days to come, some members of the parliament can’t stand the war in the Federation. So they intervened, and the major kingdoms of the federation were temporarily calmed down.
However, this approach is actually just pressing down and does not solve the fundamental problem.
Because Anves almost sold the Construct at a loss, many kingdoms thought there was something cheap to pick up, so they had invested a lot of money to buy the Construct, and were prepared to rely on war to recover the cost.
And if a small kingdom buys a large number of constructs, then even if his neighbors didn’t plan to buy them before, they have to pinch their noses and buy them together. Otherwise, in case of war, one’s own side will be very passive.
But now that the war has come to an abrupt halt due to parliamentary intervention, these constructs have become hot potatoes.
Different from the magic weapons made by alchemy, the complex structure of the magic guide requires maintenance.
Because of the cheap materials used, even if they are kept in the warehouse, they need to be regularly inspected and maintained every year to replace the worn and rusted parts.
Although under the influence of Anves, the price of finished constructions has dropped, but there has been no drop in maintenance fees. Even due to the bankruptcy of many small construction factories, the price of vulnerable parts has increased.
The many small kingdoms who had previously gritted their teeth and purchased the construction were suddenly dumbfounded. Not only did they not have time to return the money, but they also added a huge and painful maintenance fee every year.
Let’s sell them cheaply. Some small kingdoms want to sell them cheaply, and under the mutual pressure, the price is directly reduced to a very low level.
Even if some kingdoms can’t stand it and want to collude to raise prices, there are always people in the black market who sell almost unlimited quantities of all kinds of constructs at the price of broadleaf lettuce.
Under the mutual suspicion that the other party pretended to stabilize the price and lowered the price first and ran away. Not long after this kind of alliance was established, it collapsed completely and fell into a cycle of mutual price reduction again.
At the end, some kingdoms just clenched their teeth and refused to sell, and prepared to stand firm for a few years, and then start the war again after the council no longer paid attention to the matter.
At the same time, in order to make up the maintenance costs for the past few years, these small kingdoms can only start to find ways to mine high-value magic minerals, hunt high-value devil beasts, collect rare alchemy plants, etc., and then sell them In exchange for gold coins.
Of course, there’s an easier way to do this – increase taxes.
