Now, not only does Lanci have to continue paying Talia a salary of 3 pounds a day, he also owes Talia a huge sum of tens of thousands of pounds.
Because the value of the Great Love Poet's epic was too difficult to estimate, Lanci and Talia finally negotiated the production fee to 75,000 pounds of the Southern Kingdom's United Currency: the card would first belong to Lanci, and he would need to pay off the full amount within ten years and pay the corresponding interest, and then a contract was signed.
If the core material of this card, Poem of Compassion, was not provided by Lanqi, and Lanqi was also involved in the key steps of card making, I am afraid that even if the price was increased by another zero, Lanqi would not be able to get this card.
But even if the amount is 75,000 pounds, even the Wilford Chamber of Commerce would find it difficult to directly come up with so much liquid cash.
Lanqi can't pay it back for the time being, so he can only wait until he makes some money and then repay Talia.
Based on an annual interest rate of 4% compounded, if he wants to pay it off in 10 years, he will need to pay Talia at least 9,247 pounds every year. If he cannot pay it back, plus the late payment fees, the principal and interest will continue to grow.
So loving a poet is really expensive.
For her, Lanqi even had to take out a mortgage.
Of course, Lanqi would not suffer any loss. To a certain extent, he had firmly tied Talia to his side.
Originally, Talia only planned to teach Lanqi to the third level and then leave.
Now, because Talia wants to get back this huge debt, she not only has to protect Ranch, but also has to help Ranch, who can sell cards at will in human society, to earn enough wealth to repay the debt as soon as possible!
As long as he owed Talia enough money, she would protect him.
She didn't even realize that the protection and master-disciple contract between them would continue naturally!
Lanqi's abacus was clacking in his mind, and he thought with a smile.
However, at this moment, the Great Love Poet was still not consciously turning back into a magic card.
"This kind of opponent is really too weak."
The great poet of love walked towards Lanqi, slightly raised her proud head and laughed like a silver bell.
Although she and Talia look similar, their temperaments are completely opposite.
Compared to Talia, who is cold, dignified and keeps people at a distance, the poet of great love has every frown and smile like the warm sunshine in spring, but there is a hint of cunning and arrogance in the depths of his eyes that cannot be concealed.
She seemed so happy to see Firat being tortured that she stopped acting.
"Friendship comes first, respect your opponents."
Lanqi quickly closed his eyes and shook his head, muttering to himself, "What a sin!"
It's not surprising that epic summons have independent consciousness.
However, the combat attribute of the Great Love Poet itself is weaker than that of an ordinary first-level summoned creature. When her special effects cannot be exerted, you can only use her as a mascot and not count on her to fight.
"Okay, let's turn back into magic cards, Great Love Poet."
Lanqi waved to the poet of great love.
However.
The poet of great love doesn't seem to want to turn back into a card so quickly. It's a rare opportunity for her to come out and relax.
So she walked slowly to Lanqi's side.
"Hey, I say, when is the next time you torture the enemy?"
After no longer pretending to be innocent, the poet Da Ai no longer had any of the feeling of a pure girl. She narrowed her eyes like a fox and asked with a grin.
"cough!"
Lanqi's eyebrows jumped when he heard this, and he coughed twice.
"It is illegal to torture our citizens. It is suspected of cruelty as written in the Hutton Code. Don't talk nonsense."
Lanqi explained seriously,
"I had no intention of breaking the law. I was taking the national exam in a normal manner and following the right strategy."
"?"
The poet Da Ai frowned and was stunned for two seconds.
She blinked and stared into Lanqi's bright emerald eyes, feeling only clarity.
This person seemed to be genuinely trying to spread the law rather than speaking some underworld jargon.
“Tsk.”
With a smack of his lips, the Great Love Poet dissipated into a point of light and condensed again in Lanqi's hand, turning back into a magic card surrounded by a little orange mist.
"Weak master, you must quickly become stronger so that I can stay outside freely and enjoy happiness."
The empty grassland is filled with the lingering sound of the poet's sweet smile.
Lanqi put away the magic card and shook his head helplessly.
Even if he had endless magical powers, he couldn't let this evil spirit run out and do whatever he wanted.
She has the ability to turn a place full of negative emotions into Arkham Asylum in an instant.
Although summoned creatures with independent consciousness can indeed act independently by simply supplying mana, sometimes there are often high-level summoned creatures that can become good helpers to their owners and even take care of their masters.
But the poet Da Ai has an extremely bad character.
She didn't even listen to Lanqi much, except when she encountered situations that could torture and tease people.
"Next time I ask you to come out, it must be to do good deeds and accumulate virtue."
Lanqi swore secretly in his heart.
The Poet of Great Love is a magic card that can bring joy and happiness to everyone.
Forcibly calming the enemy's anger can also be said to be healing others.
Today is still a day full of merit.
After taking back the summoned creature, the little angel Lanqi withdrew from the artificial shadow world.
…
Learning and Education Building, seventh floor atrium examination room.
The spacious open space is surrounded by towering glass curtain walls, and sunlight shines freely on the marble floor tiles. The pale golden circular light column in the dome is like the focus of the atrium, extending from the ground to the ceiling, allowing sunlight and air to flow freely through the circular openings.
The sun was already high in the sky at this moment. The clear water of the atrium pool was shimmering with ripples. The surrounding green plants set off the pool, making Lanqi, who had just returned to the atrium examination room from the film world, feel very comfortable and relaxed.
However, when Lanqi looked around, he found that Teacher Theresa, who was originally in charge of the examination room, was nowhere to be seen.
Normally, Teacher Theresa, who is in charge of this area, should spend a little while explaining the admission-related matters after passing the exam.
However, Lanqi soon noticed a stretcher being hurriedly carried away by medical staff outside the examination room, as well as the back of teacher Theresa who was busy communicating with them, and he quickly understood.
Teacher Theresa seemed to be busy dealing with the follow-up matters of the examiner Firat, so she had to leave the examination room for a short while.
So the situation is that the second group of candidates who were about to start the exam are also being kept waiting in the examination room, with no one in charge to dispatch them.
"Oh, if you come out earlier, you can help out."
Lanci is a kind-hearted person. If he sees his opponent needs to be carried on a stretcher, he will definitely help.
"… "
In the examination room, Hyperion, who inadvertently heard Lanqi mumbling to himself, couldn't help but look at him.
If Firat still had a little consciousness just now.
Ranchi is seen coming and helping him on the stretcher.
I'm afraid I'll faint right away...
Hyperion now suspects that Lanci is particularly sinister.
But looking at his sincere and innocent expression, it doesn't seem like that.
He is really a bit naive.
