Chapter 264: 117. Five-week Plan
Translator: 549690339
Iron Thorn Shield Security Firm, third floor, medical office.
Noland Lee wore a face towel and sunglasses, carried a fruit basket for consolation, and entered the hospital ward inside Iron Thorn Shield.
That old guy Kent was discharged from the hospital yesterday at dusk.
He took his younger brothers for a tour on the third underground level and confirmed that Noland Lee had cleared the third underground level alone.
Kent relayed the message to the top of Iron Thorn Shield, who then sent Cindy to negotiate with Noland Lee, leading to the scene where Noland Lee and Cindy met at “Money Dream” at eight o’clock last night.
Noland Lee came to the Iron Thorn Shield ward today to visit Fars Scott.
This young alchemist with a humble background but ambitious ideals impulsively followed his enemies into the fourth underground level.
Those two Black City alchemists who ambushed the mechanical spiders had already taken the lifting platform in the fourth underground level and descended the vertical shaft.
Fars, furious, cut off the cable of the lifting platform and continued to explore. He was eager to intercept the enemy in the deeper underground.
Unfortunately.
He encountered the Seeder lurking in the fifth underground level.
This enormous, strangely-appearance extraordinary aberration with flesh mushrooms captured Fars with the tentacles of its flesh mushrooms. It almost suffocated, dissolved, and melted him into nutrients for aberration eggs.
Fortunately, Kent appeared in time to rescue Fars and forced the Seeder to withdraw using an alchemy bomb he carried with him.
Otherwise, Fars, who had lost his mind in anger, would have really died at the hands of the Seeder.
Noland Lee sat at the bedside, peeling an apple, while listening to Fars narrating the events.
“…I’m grateful to Kent for saving me. Looking back now, I was indeed too impulsive at the time. But I really had no other choice, Ray Lee. Without the alchemical cube, the mechanical spider is equivalent to the failure of my alchemy task… ”
Fars leaned back on the bedside, his face and left arm bandaged, looking dejected and desolate.
Underneath the bandages were skin eroded by the Seeder’s acid, and tender flesh buds from the healing wounds.
The medical care level in the Golden Federation is a bit worse than in the Tatis Empire.
It is estimated that it will take another three days for Fars to recover, leave the hospital, and exit the medical office.
“Fars, do you know my real identity?” Noland Lee packed the chopped apples on a plate and handed them to the other party.
“Uh… Yes. It’s a bit awkward to say, it’s all because you were too good at disguising yourself. Every time you cast a spell, you lift your glasses and reveal your right black eye. I didn’t realize you were casting a spell at the time, and I mistakenly thought you were launching some kind of extraordinary abilities caused by extraordinary organs. If you didn’t lift your glasses and directly released energy waves, then I would have recognized you as a wizard in a second…”
Fars ate the apple slices and laughed at himself:
“I really can’t do anything right, I’m too frivolous and impulsive. If I think about it now, the first time I saw you cast a spell, I could have discovered your true identity as long as I calmed down and thought for a moment. I would never have mistaken you for a native empire person… Ah, your disguise was too good… Are all wizards like you…”
“There’s no choice, Fars. This is the Golden Federation. The Alchemy Cathedral has not declared us wizards as legal extraordinary individuals, so I have to hide.”
Noland Lee smiled.
Changing the topic, Noland Lee asked:
“I’ve talked to Kent, and on Spray Powder Day, I’ll be waiting underground. I’ll help you guard against the illegal alchemists on the third and fourth underground levels. I plan to help you find the whereabouts of the metal magic cube along the way. Do you have any suggestions? When you were tracking those two Black City alchemists _ did find any important clues?””
“You’re willing to help?!” Fars Scott got excited, straightened his back, and his eyes shone with hope.
“I do intend to help, Fars. I’m just researching the extraordinary power of Black City, helping you find the metal magic cube is just along the way.”
“But I… I’m out of money…” Fars’ expression darkened, his back slumped, and he leaned back against the bedside.
‘You can pay with information, Fars. To be honest, before my mentor sent me on this journey, he didn’t give me any materials. I’ve only gradually learned about the Golden Federation and Union City after I got here, relying on my own investigation and exploration.”
Noland Lee spread his hands:
“Why not use the information you know as a reward?”
“Alright… just ask, as long as it doesn’t involve tightly regulated alchemy knowledge defined by the Alchemy Academy, as long as I know the answer, I’m willing to tell you.”
Noland Lee pondered for a moment :
“Start with the Fissure Corridor. I couldn’t find any books on this topic in the bookstore. It would be great if you could tell me what is on each floor of the corridor and the characteristics of the corridors under each sector.”
“Oh- I see. Are you asking about the resource-type Sage particles left underground by the alchemists in the Wall Building Mission 30 years ago?” Fars shook his head and said:
“I knew it, for you wizards, those resource-type Sage particles underground are the most attractive.”
Noland Lee blinked, not quite understanding what the other person was saying.
His original intention was to ask Fars and Kent about the Area No.19. If there was no gain, he would go to talk with Cindy.
Unexpectedly, before he could lead the topic to Area No.19, Fars threw out an unexpected gain..
