192 Isu City (2)

Remides was the one who proposed sending Rangers out of Ava State. Although this resolution was unanimously opposed by the Mooncycle Council in the beginning, Remides ultimately convinced everyone to pass the proposal as the greatest Ranger Hero in Ava State history.

It was also because of this that many elves went out to adventure as Rangers in the past 800 years. They returned before their blessings weakened and became a part of Ava State’s system again.

“We met in Ravenwood years ago and adventured together for many years. Later on, we bade farewell because of something and didn’t see each other for many years… I only found out some time ago that she had returned to her hometown,” William said sincerely.

The High Elf officer could tell from his tone that the other party wasn’t lying, but he continued, “But even a Ranger can’t violate the rules set by the governor back then. Moonlaw City will never allow anyone from the empire to step foot…”

William interrupted the other party and said, “Therefore, this is another key problem… I’m not from the empire.”

The elven officer immediately retorted, “But Hobbes Blackwhale said that you’re an Elementium Silver vendor from Blackwater Province.”

“Don’t you know that the Blackwater Province has already become independent?”

“Independent?”

The other party immediately frowned when he heard this word.

“When?”

“It’s been a few months… Even Ava State shouldn’t be so out of touch, right? Or is Whalebone the first ship to cross the Shattered Sea to do business after the storm ended?” William commented casually.

The other party extended three fingers and said, “The third; the first two ships had spies sent by the empire.”

“This is why you insisted on searching every ship in transit? But how are you going to tell if anyone is an empire spy? I mean, they will disguise themselves. They won’t write the word ‘spy’ on their foreheads, right?” William asked immediately.

The other party stared into William’s soul. Perhaps it was because William mentioned that he had a Ranger friend, but his attitude towards William didn’t seem to be as arrogant as before.

He turned around and continued walking. As he walked, he said, “We have our ways of telling.”

A trade secret—one that’s prohibited from being leaked, right…?

William muttered to himself. Then, he looked at the door that they almost walked past and hurriedly said, “Hey, hey, hey. It’s here, the cargo hold.”

With that said, he took out a key and walked over to open the door. Then, he pointed at the crudely refined ores sealed in wooden crates and said, “That’s all. Feel free to check.”

The other party didn’t say a word and walked in.

He took out a fist-sized ball from his waist. It was unknown what he had done, but bright orange-red light overflowed before filling the entire room.

The Elementium Silver rough-refined ores shone under the light.

After a cursory inspection, he walked to the safe in the middle of the warehouse.

“What’s in here?” he patted the safe and asked.

“Refined Elementium Silver,” William replied.

“Is it convenient to open it for an inspection?”

the other party looked at William and asked.

“It’s all refined Elementium Silver ingots. It’s about dozens of kilograms. It’s enough to buy the ships blocking our way outside,” William said.

“What do you mean?” the person asked with a frown.

“It means that I don’t trust you, so I won’t open the safe.”

The elven officer looked at the safe and turned to look at William. Before he could speak, the other party said, “The safe is installed with a self-destruct spell that will teleport the things inside directly into a Teleportation spatial rift if there’s any forced entry. Of course, I know you’ll be worried about what’s inside, so…”

William walked over and pressed down on the safe. A blue light flashed in his hand as he released Identification.

A message instantly appeared in the elven officer’s mind, confirming that the cabinet contained almost pure Elementium Silver.

Even with his firm mind, he felt as if his head had been struck by a hammer after sensing this message.

That’s dozens of kilograms of refined Elementium Silver…

Ava State didn’t have an Elementium Silver mine. Some scholars even believed that this was an important reason why magic research started before humans and their talent far exceeded humans. However, humans had once overtaken them in the application of magic.

They only barely caught up when the Riel Empire was established and humans reversed history under the Astral Laws.

“Are we good?”

William asked the elven officer who was breathing heavily.

His breathing was also slightly heavy. It wasn’t for any other reason other than him not relying on Liz to establish a magical conduit for Identification. Instead, his main body had cast it from the holy emblem from more than 10,000 kilometers away.

The mana consumed by an ordinary Apprentice spell was more than some peak spells.
