Chapter 1286

Found the families that had a feud with Lin Yun before, but none of them were suitable to deal with the Gilded Rose, and their strength was not at the same level...

Three days later, in a cave in the wild, Reynolds, wearing a white robe and a black headband, appeared with a smile.

"Sir Vokri, don't be excited. I'm here to help you achieve your wish. I heard that you were persecuted by the Gilded Rose..."

Vokri has been in a miserable situation recently. As a pure fire mage, he can learn spells that can cover his appearance, but he doesn't know any of them. Now he doesn't dare to appear in the city at all.

As long as he appears in the city, he will be recognized within a few minutes, and then quietly sell the news. During this period, there are more than a dozen ordinary people who have been retaliated just for selling the news of Vokri's whereabouts.

In addition to those who came to hunt him down for the bounty, there were also many tracking teams that were stopped by those he had forced to buy and sell. Maybe an ordinary person around him would sell him information, or someone in the city, hundreds of meters away, would recognize him...

In order to avoid, Walker could only stay in the wild, and didn't dare to go to any small town. It was really a bit miserable...

After being fooled by Reynolds for a few words, Walker followed Reynolds out of the broken cave...

The next day, a great swordsman who came to the Gilded Rose to make trouble was expelled, but on the third day, the body of this great swordsman appeared outside the city. Judging from the injuries, it was obviously killed by the alchemy puppet.

On the fourth day, rumors spread everywhere, and various rumors began to appear explosively.

The Gilded Rose is powerful and very domineering. Those who dare to make trouble in the Gilded Rose will be beaten to death directly...

Forcing the Carter family to surrender, otherwise the Carter family will be destroyed. The rebels of the Carter family were regarded as robbers, and even a large amount of bounty was issued.

A small alchemy shop. Because the Gilded Rose's goods were not on display, everyone in the store died in less than three days...

The material supplier who dared to provide raw materials to the rival of the Gilded Rose died in his own home...

The rumors were more and more, and the speed of spread was getting faster and faster. Almost within a day, with Neverwinter as the center, dozens of towns around the city began to spread such rumors.

Until a poor little nobleman spread the news. He accidentally provoked an employee of the Gilded Rose and hoped that the Gilded Rose would let him live.

In an instant, the domineering and strength of the Gilded Rose became a fixed impression. In addition to the good products of the Gilded Rose before, there was another domineering and ruthless image.

The business of the Gilded Rose was affected. Many people were trembling when they came to the Gilded Rose store, fearing that they would offend the Gilded Rose. If some things were not only available in the Gilded Rose, they would not dare to appear in the Gilded Rose store...

Three days. Various rumors were spreading like wildfire, and then an earl of the Kingdom of Odin privately expressed his dissatisfaction with the overbearing style of the Gilded Rose at a banquet.

But it was only dissatisfaction. It seemed that within a few days, everyone began to fear the Gilded Rose, and the prestige of the Gilded Rose increased rapidly...

Whether it was the head office of the Gilded Rose in Neverwinter City or more than 20 branches, all the troubles were gone within a few days.

Originally, because of the incident in Rig City, many towns where branches were located had people trying to get the Gilded Rose. Especially some wizards and swordsmen with bad hearts, always wanted to get some benefits from the Gilded Rose. After all, if the Gilded Rose wanted to open a branch, it had to manage the relationship in the city.

But these few days. No one came to cause trouble. Those who were like gangsters who always wanted to get some benefits,

Now when passing by the Gilded Rose store, they would rather take a longer detour.

Because in the past few days, more than a dozen gangsters were found dead outside the city in the towns where the branches were located. Moreover, these thugs have one thing in common, all of them are trying to get some benefits from the Gilded Rose.

Although there is no evidence that it was done by the Gilded Rose, and the ways in which these people died were different, but the rumor spread, and it seemed that everyone knew that it was the Gilded Rose who killed those thugs, a group of thugs with no background, and the best background was just connected to a certain bandit group outside.

But now the Gilded Rose is on the blacklist of the bandit group in the Odin Kingdom. As long as it is a caravan of the Gilded Rose, there is no one to protect it. These bandit groups can only drool and stare blankly, and no one dares to attack the Gilded Rose caravan.

The two bandit groups that were completely destroyed before, their base camps were razed to the ground. This bloody lesson is enough to warn other bandit groups, because as long as they find that the bandit group attacks the caravan, the Gilded Rose can justifiably eliminate it. Even if someone dislikes the Gilded Rose and has a deep hatred, he can only pinch his nose and say good things about this matter.

Bandit attacks and conflicts between certain families are two completely different concepts.

No one in the bandit group dared to provoke the Gilded Rose, and no one dared to provoke those with weak strength. It seemed that even some nobles in the Odin Kingdom only expressed their dissatisfaction with the Gilded Rose's domineering style on some occasions, but no one dared to do anything, just dared to say a few words behind her back.

Most of the powerful forces have no conflicts with the Gilded Rose, and there are even some cooperation. Now many big families have purchase plans for the Gilded Rose, especially after the release of the universal core, the number of Gilded Rose's partners has skyrocketed several times compared to before.

Relying on the universal core, these days, almost all of the Gilded Rose's partners have increased their income by more than 50% compared to before, and some are more exaggerated, and their income has doubled in a short period of time.

The power of the Gilded Rose is getting stronger, which is a good thing that all partners value, because the stronger the Gilded Rose is, the better. As long as their supply is not interrupted, the stronger the Gilded Rose is, the more guaranteed their business will be.

After hearing the news, Faro didn't think too much. After all, only some insignificant ruffians died, and most of these ruffians were not good people. They had done too many bad things. They could survive until now, but no one dealt with them. Now they have provoked an existence that cannot be provoked, so let them be killed.

Faro knew that these things were not done by the Gilded Rose, and he didn't care. Besides, does Gilded Rose have to come out to refute rumors just because some scumbags and hooligans were killed? That Gilded Rose is too idle.

Besides, Gilded Rose originally came from outside, and her power in the Kingdom of Odin was not strong. Now she has a little power, which is a good thing. The troubles reported in these days seem to have been reduced by half in an instant, so why should she care about it.

However, according to Lin Yun's previous instructions, in the routine reports every once in a while. Farrow still reported this matter to Lin Yun.

Recently, Lin Yun has been studying the Rune of Truth in the demiplane and comprehending the rules. His understanding of the rules has almost reached the current limit. In addition to the training of the great astrologer Agalon, it is only a matter of time for him to advance to the fourth level of the Heavenly Rank. Maybe he will break through the limit and advance in a month, or maybe he will suddenly have a new understanding and advance in a few minutes.

After finishing the study of the Rune of Truth, he picked up the report submitted by Farrow and read it for a while. Lin Yun frowned.

Most of them are fine, but the power of the Gilded Rose is getting stronger. In such a short time, it has become like this. It is not that the power is strong, but that they are afraid of the Gilded Rose.

The report only has a few sentences, and there is no point. However, Lin Yun keenly found something wrong.

After leaving the demiplane, he found Faro and listened to Faro's detailed account. Lin Yun's face darkened a little.

"It's not that the reputation of the Gilded Rose has been improved, but that everyone is afraid of the Gilded Rose, and the Gilded Rose has been labeled as overbearing and tyrannical.

The Gilded Rose is still an external force, and it is just an alchemy shop. This is someone who wants to praise the Gilded Rose to death, so that the local forces of the Odin Kingdom will be dissatisfied with the Gilded Rose.

Now there are still alchemy potions and universal cores to suppress it, so there is no big problem, but if it continues, things will be troublesome. There must be someone behind it to add fuel to the fire."

Faro was stunned. At this moment, he could sense something was wrong. The changes in the past few days were so fast that even Faro himself found it incredible. He even had the illusion that the gilded rose had taken root in the Kingdom of Odin.

Just when Lin Yun was trying to figure out what was going on, a piece of heavy news broke.

An alchemy shop in a small town near Neverwinter was destroyed. From the alchemist to the owner of the shop, all died tragically in the shop.

This was just a small shop. The owner of the shop was just an eighth-level titled wizard. The shop had only one storefront. The scope of business was only magic weapons, and there were only a few kinds of magic weapons. There were only three alchemists in the shop. The main reason why the shop could continue to operate was because the owner of the shop was a master who could make spiritual magic weapons.

If a small shop like this was destroyed, there would not be such a big reaction. The key point was why it was destroyed. An alchemist in the shop survived by chance and revealed the reasons for the destruction of the shop and the murderer.

The murderer was Gilded Rose. The reason for the destruction was that they bought 20 universal cores from Gilded Rose, but all of them were scrapped. In order to maintain its reputation, Gilded Rose wanted to buy back these universal cores. After buying back the scrapped universal cores, it immediately destroyed the store. Only one alchemist survived by chance because of his special physique.

In an instant, dozens of towns in the northern part of the Kingdom of Odin began to spread this heavy news, and Gilded Rose seemed to be the last to know.

After listening to the news reported by his subordinates, Lin Yun's face was flat.

"Find out who is behind the scenes and who is smearing our Gilded Rose."

Faro's forehead was sweating, and his face was ugly. A low-level alchemy store was destroyed. The frequency of such things is too high.

Even in Neverwinter, a city with the best security, there are at least several hundred people who die every year. The number of alchemy shops at the lowest level that open and close every year is at least 800, if not 1,000. Shops are robbed, not to mention small shops like this, even those that are second only to the Gilded Rose in size have almost all been robbed.

Now a small shop at the lowest level was destroyed, and overnight, it spread to towns within tens of thousands of kilometers, and the details were described clearly.

If there is no powerful force behind this kind of thing, it would be a ghost, and it is specifically targeting the Gilded Rose!

There were scraps in the universal core of the gold-plated rose, and there were twenty scraps at a time. In order to avoid leaking the news, the alchemy shop was destroyed, and after taking away twenty scraps!

With this rhetoric. It doesn't matter whether there are scraps or not. Coupled with the rumors and rumors these days, everyone will instinctively believe that this is the work of Gilded Rose.

Versatile centerpiece in gold-plated rose. Sales may plummet, and many people may even take advantage of this opportunity.

Lin Yun sat in the Gilded Rose and thought, who is smearing the Gilded Rose? With such power, is it necessary to use this method to smear the Gilded Rose?

No matter how you look at it, this is some conspiracy method that cannot be put on the table. The truly powerful forces may have already overwhelmed them. No matter how this method is used, it will cause some trouble for the Gilded Rose. At most, it will result in a loss of profits, but it will not be able to shake the foundation of the Gilded Rose. In other words, it will just make the Gold-plated Rose a little troublesome. There is a problem with the universal core of the Gilded Rose...

Yes, universal core. It’s the universal core!

The other party used the universal core to smear Gold Plated Rose as a breakthrough point. It must be for the universal core.

The technology of the universal core is actually not that top-notch. Just find a creator who is good at it and you may be able to understand the technology, but the core is the material.

Without new materials, it cannot be made at all. With this technology, what is made is waste, and all the technology is embedded in the material. This new material contains a dilute black substance that automatically attracts magic power. There is no need to keep it secret at all, because there is no way to crack the universal core.

All magic inspection methods are unable to detect the structure inside. Only someone like me, using a method like an optical microscope that doesn't use magic at all to detect it, can it be possible to decipher the technology in the universal core.

But once the technology is cracked, it is useless without the materials...

The other party may have discovered it. This is a brand-new material. They tried their best to discredit the Gilded Rose, and even used the universal core as a breakthrough. I am afraid they simply gave up the universal core. The ultimate goal should be new materials.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Lin Yun's mouth. After discovering this, he narrowed down the scope enough.

The emphasis is on materials rather than universal cores. The other party must also deal in alchemy items, and the biggest profit is the magic weapon!

There are not many forces in the Kingdom of Odin that deal in magic weapons, and there are such big forces. The other party has done so many things, it is impossible not to have any clues at all. As long as we find clues, we can rule out the several forces that mainly deal in magic weapons. , you will know who is doing the trick.

As for the inability to produce evidence, I am afraid that it is because there is no material, and even if you want to make it fake, you can't make it. The new material is not an alloy of several materials fused together, but a new single material that has been fused with a fusion agent.

To put it simply, it is a new substance that directly changes the molecular form. If you want to use the materials of the analytical universal core to create the same thing, you will not be able to do it for thousands of years.

Black matter itself is not something that ordinary people can obtain. Although the production of fusion agent is not very troublesome, any creator can easily make it. If there are special materials from the abyss, a master can easily make it. Made loosely.

Unfortunately, it will take nearly five thousand years for the most rudimentary fusion agent formula to appear...

Lin Yun sat firmly on Diaoyutai and didn't care about the ups and downs outside. Since that incident, more and more people came to Gold Plated Rose to unsubscribe from the universal core. The people who came to buy the universal core before bought them piecemeal. At most, many are now returning goods one after another.

Three days later, a previous collaborator came to return the product and returned all the multi-purpose cores worth more than 100 yuan.

"What bullshit universal cores you are selling are all rubbish. You spent so many purple gold coins to buy back a bunch of rubbish. Why don't you return it! Can't we still let people say that we are selling fakes?"

Lin Yun walked out from behind the Gilded Rose and saw a group of people arguing inside the Gilded Rose. Many people were watching.

Farrow's face turned ugly.

"We can refund these unused universal cores to you at the original price you paid for them, but these have already been used and cannot be suitable for other magic weapons. These cannot be returned..."

Lin Yun walked over from behind and glanced at the guy who was yelling to return the goods. He had an impression in his mind that it seemed to be a magic weapon manufacturing and alchemy shop. It was not large in scale, but it could be considered medium-sized.

"Farrow, return it to them. Each universal core has a number on it. As long as it is verified that it is manufactured and sold by our gold-plated rose, whether it is used or unused, or even damaged, all will be purchased by them. The price was refunded.

Anyone who withdraws should register it. "

"What? You are selling fake gold-plated roses. Are you not allowed to return them if someone finds out? Now that you have registered them, you will take revenge in the future, right?"

Lin Yun glanced at the shopkeeper indifferently, and the aura of terror directly penetrated his eyes and suppressed his soul. In an instant, the shopkeeper's face became extremely pale.

"You alone are not qualified to ask Gilded Rose for revenge."

The shopkeeper wanted to say something harshly, but couldn't say a word.

Lin Yun turned around and returned to the back hall of the Gilded Rose, frowning in thought.

After a while, Farrow came over with an ugly expression.

"Lord Merlin, the situation seems to be getting bigger and bigger. There are more and more rumors that the universal core is a cover. More and more people come to return the goods, and there are even several cooperative stores of Gilded Rose.

Two nobles from the Kingdom of Odin also came to return the universal cores they bought. One of the earls and three viscounts all expressed their dissatisfaction with Gilded Rose in public..."

Lin Yun suddenly appeared and interrupted Farrow's report. (To be continued.)
