"Master, we have received news that a Gold Coin pastor from the Fortune Church wishes to meet with you, and will arrive at Morning Star Port in a few days!"
At this time, Sister Claire, who had woken up, brought a glass of mixed fruit juice to Jacopo with a blushing face. This was a drink from the elves, and Leylin liked it very much.
"Gold coin priest? I thought it would be enough for the other party to come over with one silver coin..."
Leylin half-lyed on the wicker chair crafted by elves, with a lazy and relaxed expression, full of a sense of calmness.
In the Church of the Goddess of Wealth, her priests are divided into several levels. Except for the highest patriarch, the others are arranged in various coins, with copper coins being the lowest and gold coins being the highest.
A gold coin priest is equivalent to an archbishop, and his status is much higher than that of the bishop Tabris, who is the God of Knowledge. The other side is only a silver coin in conversion.
The Temple of Wealth sent a gold coin priest here. Obviously, the trade volume of Faolan Island has reached a terrifying level, and even attracted the attention of the Goddess of Wealth to some extent!
"I see, you order to go down and receive the other party with the etiquette of a distinguished guest!"
Although it was a big event, after Jacob listened to Leylin's order, he relaxed.
It seemed that as long as he followed Leylin's orders, he would definitely be able to get things done in the end!
This is the prestige that Leylin has accumulated over time, and at certain moments it even has the effect of turning things around.
"Goddess of Wealth? Not bad..."
After watching Jacopo leave, Leylin took a sip of the juice with a strange smile on his face.
The current Venus Port is simply Leylin's private fiefdom. Although nominally everything belongs to that Baron Jonas, Leylin has the actual power, and manages the entire port in a watertight manner, without building any temples.
This of course aroused the dissatisfaction of Bishop Tablis.
But neither Leylin nor Baron Jonas wanted to see the Church of the God of Knowledge appearing as a dominant family on Faolan Island.
Besides the God of Suffering, the Goddess of Wealth can be said to be the most attractive god to be worshiped by nobles.
The first belief of nobles is only their own interests and power, but after that, the attractiveness of Ms. Fortune is very high. After all, who can refuse those golden cuties
Baron Jonas once hoped to attract the Church of Wealth to build the temple, but Faolan Island was too barren at that time, and the Church of the God of Knowledge obstructed it, so it failed.
But this time it was the other party's request! He even sent a gold coin priest for this purpose, which is enough to see the other party's attention!
Leylin still welcomes the entry of the Fortune Church. The benefits of the Fortune Temple to the regional economic development are obvious.
Those priests of wealth are so good at making money. Apart from being shirtless and running various profiteering businesses, they can do almost everything—from storing valuables, remittances with gold coins, to exchanging various coins, and even lending usury. With profits, there is nothing they dare not do!
But it is undeniable that with this Temple of Wealth, which actually assumes part of the banking functions, there are only benefits to the development of trade and economy, and there is no harm.
However, since the other party wanted something from him now, how could Leylin let go of this good opportunity to kill someone? By the way, you can also retaliate a little bit for the other party's previous behavior.
Thinking of this, the arc of Leylin's mouth widened even more, and he took another look at his attributes.
[Leylin Faolan Age: 16 Race: Human Level 9 Mage Strength: 4.5 Agility: 5 Constitution: 6 Spirit: 9 Status: Healthy Possess Talent: Strong, knowledgeable and possess Spell Slot: Level 4 Spell Slot (1) , third-level spell slots (3), second-level spell slots (5), first-level spell slots (???), zero-level spell slots (???)]
[Magic net analysis progress: level 0 magic net 100%! Level 1 magic net 100%! Level 2 magic net 25.17%! Level 3 magic net 8.89%! Level 4 magic net 0.001%!]
During this year, Leylin also secretly attacked many times to help the Scarlet Tiger Pirates eliminate the enemy.
The current Isabelle already has the nickname of 'Crimson Witch' in the whole sea, and she has a very vicious reputation, half of which is due to Leylin.
The Devil's Blood Dagger also took the opportunity to feast on the enemy's blood, pushing Leylin to the level of a ninth-level mage.
Ninth-level mage! Being able to touch the existence of level 4 magic nets! At this point, Leylin can almost be said to have graduated under Ernest.
In fact, if the other party hadn't been stimulated by Leylin, and had been working hard to break through in the past few years, and finally reached the tenth level of mage, Ernest would have been ashamed to see his apprentice again.
"After being able to cast level 4 spells, Instructor Ernest has nothing to teach me..."
Leylin sighed, the opponent can only cast level 4 spells now, and due to the limitation of specialization, Ernest rarely dabbles in other spell templates except for the protection system and the evocation system. It is also a pity.
Currently, Leylin is in a state of 'self-study' most of the time.
Of course, with the current financial resources of the Faolan family, it is not a problem to buy some basic spell templates and lore books, but what worries Leylin is that those kingdoms and mage guilds are fine with low-level mage knowledge, but 4th-level mage knowledge is not a problem. The spell templates and various research materials behind the Internet are kept secret, and it is impossible to sell them publicly.
As for the knowledge of high-level mages, even the expositions and comprehensions of legendary mages, that was even more taboo among taboos. How could it be possible for Leylin to see those who were protected to death.
"Mr. Ernest has already issued a letter of introduction to me. With this, I can obtain the qualification to study in the Mage Guild of the Danbras King Capital..."
Leylin half-closed his eyes, but he was still thinking about it in his mind.
"It's a pity that the current situation in the open sea cannot be separated from me! The Marquis Louis's patience may have reached its limit. Horrible revenge and blows will come at any time, and the cooperative relationship with the barbarian pirates..."
After a long time, Leylin sighed deeply.
Of course he can't leave now, at least he has to deal a severe blow to the Louis family! And this day is not very far away!
Leylin's eyes seemed to be burning with a lot of flames...
…
"Trash! You trash!"
The ink on the table, mixed with quills, parchment and other sundries, all fell on Viscount Dim.
"One year has passed! A whole year has passed. Look at what you have done. Not only were all the ships under your command sunk by the opponent, but even our trade has been dragged by the opponent! How could I give birth to A son like you?"
Marquis Louis roared, with blue blood vessels bursting on his forehead, obviously angry to a certain extent.
"Father! I have already found out that the son of Baron Faolan, Leylin, is probably the mastermind behind the Crimson Tiger Pirates. We can apply for a trial in China and arrest him for piracy... and that Barbarian Pirates, as long as we mobilize all the forces at hand, attack the pirate port... "
Dim lowered his head deeply, covering the cold light in his eyes, trying to persuade his father.
He hated that Leylin and the Crimson Tiger Pirates to the bone. They seemed to be his nemesis. The second premeditated revenge was seen through by the other party during the implementation stage, and he was slapped in the face several times, which almost wiped out his power.
Now, not only has he gradually lost the favor of the Marquis Louis, but even the other family servants don't take him seriously.
Of course, there is also his most jealous elder brother, who even sprinkled a few handfuls of salt on his wounds, took the opportunity to deprive most of his subordinates' business, and even blatantly wooed his people!
boom!
The black crystal ink bottle hit Dim directly on the head, and the ink mixed with blood rolled down, making Dim stunned.
"Are you a pig? Piracy? Do you have evidence? Or do you want to trap us together?"
Marquis Louis growled a few degrees louder: "And... attacking the pirate port? This is the biggest joke I have heard this year! It is the gathering place of the dark forces in the entire outer sea. Even if we take it down, what's the matter? Benefits? You have to face their counterattack... "
"Father!"
At this time, a gentle voice came from outside the door, which calmed down the emotions in front of Marquis Louis, and the light in Dim's eyes dimmed a bit.
The door opened, and his eldest brother, who seemed to have been blessed by the gods since he was born, walked in with the luck of having everything.
"William!" Seeing his own son coming in, Marquis Louis had a rare smile on his face.
"My people have tracked down the crimson tiger, but the other party is very vigilant and hardly stays on an island for long..."
William smiled and said a piece of news, but it made Dim next to him feel hot on his face.
"This is normal, the opponent has a powerful mage, who even blocked Poruge's prophecy and detection!"
Marquis Louis pondered: "It is rumored that Baron Jonas's son, Leylin Faolan, has a mage behind him. I suspect that the other party is among the pirates!"
"Father, please give me the command of the Black Skull. I am confident that I will destroy the Crimson Tiger within three months!"
William bent down and delivered the fatal blow to Dim.
"Don't underestimate the other party!" Marquis Louis returned to his previous scheming expression after his anger passed.
