The serious antagonism and discord between the president and vice-president of the Blackstone Ring Chamber of Commerce is already a well-known fact in the free city, at least on the surface everyone thinks so┉┉
For Gerkat, the struggle between Croside and Lakshmi has little to do with him. After all, there are more or less internal power struggles in the chamber of commerce, and even the three giants in the free city don't know how many. People want to pull them down. It was only Ms. Caiman Susanna, the Chamber of Commerce Chairman Lawrence, who was helping her, that made Gerkat frown slightly. This guy actually brought in outsiders to deal with his own people. You must know that the Blackstone Ring Chamber of Commerce has risen extremely rapidly recently. Croseide is also an ambitious guy. He is definitely a person who wants to bring down the Big Three. Pioneer.
Facing Lakshmi's greeting, Gerkat replied casually: "Nothing, I just asked Croside to ask him for a favor."
When hearing Croside's name, Lakshmi directly showed a look of 'disgust', but in an instant this Black Stone? none? wrong? .. President Huan regained his composure: "If you need anything, Sir Gerkat, you can tell me. I don't know if I can help." After that, Gerkat ignored Lakshmi and went straight. Walking forward, when passing by Ms. Caiman Susanna, the other party showed a meaningful smile and handed Gerkat an envelope.
"Your Excellency Gerkat, this is Mr. Lawrence's thank you for quelling the riot last time. Please accept it."
Gerkat was stunned for a moment and then naturally accepted the envelope: "Thank you very much, Mr. Lawrence. Please take me to say hello to him."
After Gerkat left, the staff around him couldn't help but whisper, and they could get the thanks from the chairman of the Free City Chamber of Commerce. This is simply an indescribable honor. This mercenary king has been able to achieve such a great influence in the free city with his own strength.
After arriving at the VIP lounge, Gelkate opened the envelope, and a ring fell out of it. It was a space ring with storage capabilities that did not set any opening restrictions. Gelkate took a brief look at the ring and found that it was filled with gold coins and several pieces of excellent equipment. It seemed that Lawrence was really generous this time. A few hours later┉┉
After returning to the Chamber of Commerce, Closide learned of Gerkat's arrival, and woke up the arena champion who was sleeping soundly in the lounge. Looking at Gerkat's sleepy look, Closide I can't help but suspect that if someone had bad intentions and slashed Gerkat's neck with a long sword at this time, it would probably cause a sensation in the entire Free City and even the entire continent. Maybe hundreds of years later, people can still kill this person. The ignominious death of the dragon-lizard hero was treated as a joke.
"Aha!!"
Gelkate stretched out and said hello with a drowsy look: "Hey~ you are finally back. How long have I been sleeping?"
"About four hours."
Gelkate moved his limbs and sat up: "It seems that I slept long enough this time, by the way! Croseid, do you know who I saw when I came here just now?"
Under Croside's puzzled gaze, Gerkat said like a paparazzi who accidentally got the secret: "Ms. Caiman Susanna, the assistant of the Chamber of Commerce Chairman Lawrence. She seems to have had a very good chat with your President. Oh~"
Although Gerkat usually didn't pay much attention to these power struggles, after all, he had such a deep friendship with Closide. In the end, Gerkat felt that he should remind his old friend and let him pay attention to some dangerous things in his chamber of commerce. Internal situation. However, Closide nodded calmly, as if Ms. Kaiman Susanna's secret conversation with the president who was against her was just a trivial matter.
"Yeah?".
Gelkate lowered his head feebly: "Brother Closide, don't you care at all?".
"I'm not interested in caring about the clown's performance." Closide still looked like it had nothing to do with him, but he was full of confidence in his words: "Okay, if you have anything to do with me, just tell me."
"Okay. Actually, I want you to see if you can help me fix this thing."
Gelkate conveniently dropped the tomahawk that was leaning on the side on the low table. The weight of the tomahawk directly made the carved low table made by a famous master make an unbearable sound. Gelkate didn't care and directly untied the black cloth on it, revealing the chipped ax blade and a few dark fragments. Closide squinted his eyes and looked at the battle ax with a solemn expression.
"I think you should go find a blacksmith┉┉"
"I've looked for it, but no one can fix it. Even the 'divine craftsman' who usually has his eyes on the top can't do anything." Gerkat folded his hands in front of his chest and thought about the forging of the 'divine craftsman'. He said gloatingly about the situation in the library, now that fool probably has no face and calls himself a 'master craftsman' all day long.
Closide wiped the ax blade and felt the unique solidity. Looking at the crack on it, Closide couldn't help but frowned and asked: "What did you go to fight? It couldn't be a dragon. Bar!"
"Please! It was an orc who hit him with a warhammer. That guy's strength is really extraordinary. He can probably compete with some dragon lizards."
Orcs! Croseid couldn't help but have some doubts. As the prince of the Black Dragon Clan, Croseid recognized the origin of this battle ax. It was a standard weapon made by the dragon clan for imaginary enemies during the Dragon War. In theory, it was a weapon against imaginary enemies. The power of a real dragon can last for a long time. Even the dragon lizard that Gerkat used this battle ax against last time did not leave any scars on the battle axe. How could a mere orc break this weapon
"Give me a detailed explanation of the situation."
"Hey~ Brother Croside, I just want you to help repair the weapon. Can you tell me if you can repair it?".
"situation at the moment!?"
Croseid stared at Gelkate, as if he was going to eat him alive. Gelkate shivered and had no choice but to explain. An orc who can use magic, wears magic condensation that is not inferior to legendary equipment, and can transform into a giant monster in battle. Croseid's eyes are still calm and seem to be completely unmoved by what Gerkat said.
"that's it?"
"┉┉┉┉" Seeing that Croside was still not completely convinced, Gerkat tilted his head and sighed and said: "Can the battle ax be repaired?".
Croseid glanced at the battle ax on the table. The main body of this battle ax was forged at one time from obsidian mixed with mithril and a small amount of fine gold. Human beings have not yet mastered this forging technology and there is nothing they can do. If you were to repair it yourself, you might have to return to the gathering place of the Black Dragon Clan, where there would be facilities to resmelt obsidian. To be honest, Closide didn't want to go all the way back to the clan. If he didn't go back, he would have to rebuild the supporting facilities, which would be too expensive. Otherwise, the overall quality of the weapon would have to be lowered, or else You can also experiment with using a little bit of precious materials obtained from the White Dragon King to try to incorporate them.
Of course, there is a prerequisite for Croseid to help with this. Gerkat must explain everything that happened that night. How could an orc know magic? How could he use magic condensation to destroy a weapon once made by the Black Dragon Clan? Dragon-slaying weapon.
"There's some trouble, but it's still fixable."
"Okay┉┉I've confessed them all!" Seeing that Closide's eyes were still suspicious, Gerkat thought for a while and decided to confess everything.
Next, Closide received news that finally made it impossible for him to remain calm. He got a magical gem from an orc. The power in the gem can continuously heal the orc's injuries in an instant, and it can also condense items. The orc The ability to gain power that rivaled his own and even break the battle ax was all due to this gem. In the end, the orcs actually destroyed themselves because they could not withstand the power of this gem.
"Where's that gem! Is it on your body, Gelkate!"
Closeide's tone finally became slightly excited. In a daze, the Black Dragon Prince always felt that Gelkate's description of the power of this gemstone seemed to have been previewed somewhere. That's right! Before leaving the Black Dragon Clan, I read in my father's handwritten records that he could also heal injuries instantly, create things out of thin air, and even communicate with the elemental spirit world without limit, and cast any spell at will with his own thoughts.
Gelkate waved his hand: "Do you still remember the kid I put a bounty on?".
"It's in his hands, right┉┉"
"Are you interested in the power of that stone?".
Croside nodded and said: "Of course, I am interested in any unknown strange power, aren't you too?".
"A little bit, it's just that I want to catch that kid more than the stone. Didn't you pay attention to my reward announcement? I want to catch alive, not dead." Gelkate sighed and said calmly: "K Brother Loside, it seems like you should send someone to search for that kid, right?"
"Don't worry! I guarantee that the kid will be delivered to you alive." Closed was not interested in exploring why Gelkate wanted to save the kid's life. Now he just wanted to get the gem to see if it was the right one. It's as magical as Kate said.
Gelkate nodded and said: "If your people catch him, then please throw this kid out of the Free City. No matter what he does in the future, just let him leave the city."
Croside stared at the other person silently, with a strange light shining in his eyes: "Why?"
"I'm just keeping a promise." Gelkate closed his eyes and said calmly.
