Nancy followed Lu Cheng into the conference room. When she saw the old man sitting at the end of the conference room, she discovered that he was her Alchemy instructor during the Gemansis Mystic Council.
"Nancy?"
Master Winnie recognized Nancy the moment he saw her, mainly because Nancy's talent in learning was too high. There were only seventeen students in Master Winnie's potion class, and there were only three apprentices that Master Winnie truly acknowledged as his students, and Nancy was one of them.
Unfortunately, Nancy's talent for magic was not that high. When Nancy was about to say goodbye and return to Xiuenzhe, Master Winnie tried to keep her, but Nancy's heart was not in the Gemansis Secret Society.
"Teacher Winnie."
Nancy hadn't seen her mentor in almost two years.
Master Winnie is definitely a conscientious mentor in the Gemansis Secret Society, and also the most serious one. Under the secret society's atmosphere of "knowledge must not be passed on to outsiders", Master Winnie will also pass on some of his secret recipes to his apprentices.
He is truly thinking about the future of the Secret Society, and more broadly speaking, he is thinking about the future of this world civilization among the spellcasters.
Unlike some high-level spellcasters in the secret society, they focus on improving their own power.
"Nancy, have you become one of them?" Master Winnie noticed that Nancy was no longer wearing the spellcasting robe she wore during the secret meeting, but a beige wool coat.
During the two months that Nancy has been in the camp, even her aesthetic taste has begun to approach that of Earth. If Nancy did not carry a magic wand with her, she would have looked like a French girl on the streets of Earth.
In contrast, Elena's fashion sense is much stranger. She also changes her clothes every day, but it's always the same hooded long dress. The only thing that changes is the pattern on her chest. Today, the pattern on Elena's chest is Nongfu Spring.
"I am here as their ally. Now the entire Xiuenzhelai has established a trade cooperation relationship with them."
Nancy did not agree with Master Winnie's statement. She was still from Xiu Enzhe, not the Celestial Empire.
"Allies..." Master Winnie glanced at Lu Cheng who was silent beside him. Master Winnie was guessing Lu Cheng's intention of letting Nancy contact him.
"Master Winnie." Nancy paused for a moment before asking what she was thinking, "What are you afraid of?"
This sentence perfectly saw through Master Winnie's thoughts, causing the double damage of a headshot and a critical hit.
In fact, no matter who you are, you can see Master Winnie’s current attitude. He is afraid, afraid of the Celestial Empire.
Master Winnie did not answer Nancy's question. When he saw Nancy, he figured out something.
That means they can't hide from it!
Master Winnie has now brought Charlotte back to the Secret Society and has started cooperation with the Pure Sect, which has no impact on the Celestial Empire.
This country can still easily expand in this world. Without them, there are still countless countries willing to establish an alliance with the Celestial Empire.
"Lord Lu Cheng... I have a request. I hope to stay here for a while." Master Winnie figured this out, and he was no longer in a hurry to take Charlotte back to the Secret Society.
"We can arrange accommodation for you. Of course, if you want to leave midway, we will not stop you."
Although Lu Cheng said this, what he was thinking in his heart was "Is that it?"
During this time, Lu Cheng also glanced at Nancy, and her face seemed to say, "I still have something to say!"
Nancy prepared a lot of useful materials to persuade the Secret Society, ranging from the superiority of the Celestial Empire's foreign policy to the unique production method of the Celestial civilization. Before she had the chance to recommend this member of the Secret Society, Master Winnie made the decision.
"I know you want to tell me...about the various benefits of your allies, Nancy, but I want to observe with my eyes and listen with my ears." Master Winnie stood up with the help of his staff.
The appearance of Nancy dispelled Master Winnie's doubts, that is, the Celestial Empire did not regard people from other worlds as inferiors or slaves, but Master Winnie still needed to rely on his own observations to judge the Celestial Empire's true attitude towards them, or what kind of country the Celestial Empire itself was.
He had experience in communicating with the Church of Supreme Purity. Initially, Master Winnie also thought that the Church of Supreme Purity was a good partner. However, after learning the true face of the Church of Supreme Purity, Master Winnie realized the danger of this church.
The Church of the Most Pure did not deceive the Secret Society, but their values, outlook on life and values are different from those of the people in this world. This is just like in a tribe with the custom of cannibalism, the villagers in the tribe do not think that cannibalism is wrong, but rather something that should be done.
"Since you want to understand us, don't you want to take a look at our world?" Lu Cheng suddenly said something that attracted everyone's attention in the conference room.
This includes Elena and Noi... The world where Lu City is located can be said to be something that everyone present is curious about.
Then everyone present turned their eyes to Master Winnie.
They were ready to wait for Master Winnie to say "I'm going" and then add "Take me with you".
"I hope to wait here for a while, and consider going to your world after the dispute between Far South and the Church of the Pure Ones is over." Master Winnie's words made Elena and Nancy choke on the words "take me with you".
"We will resolve the dispute between Yuannan and the Pure Church. As for the Blood Crystal Beast, you can see the latest progress here every day. By the way... that person named Aoer, will you stay here or return to Yuannan to continue your business?"
Lu Cheng turned his gaze towards Aoer, who had been standing beside Master Winnie pretending to be a servant.
"Please let him return to the Far South, Lord Lu Cheng. The trade between the Secret Society and the Far South must continue." Master Winnie made the decision on Aor's destination first.
"The portal behind you leads to the Far South, a safe place. By the way, the situation in the Far South has not been very stable recently."
Lucheng opened a portal behind Aor, and the spellcaster, who had half a pack of raccoons in his pocket, wanted to apply to stay.
If he went back to Far South now, he would most likely be caught up in the purge, but at the signal from Master Winnie, the young spellcaster had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into the portal for the future of the Secret Society.
After the portal was closed, Lucheng consumed another four energy coins.
"Next, we should talk about rent and travel expense reimbursement." Lu Cheng said suddenly.
"Reimburse?" Master Winnie heard that this word was in Chinese, but travel expenses and rent were all common words, so he quickly understood what Lu Cheng meant.
"Don't worry, the rent here is still very cheap, much cheaper than in our world." Lu Cheng said with a warm smile on his face again.
