Chapter 680: The Beginning of a New Journey
The adventure mentioned by the "chairman" is very valuable to participate in-this is the decision made by punk after thinking.
Any adventure is bound to be accompanied by risks that match the benefits, and the "change" mentioned by the president just sounds like it already foretells the inevitable bloody storm. It must be something to avoid.
But on the other hand, "ambitious" new legendary professionals such as Punk have no capital and excuses to continue to be timid.
Punk is very aware of the warning of the "Dirty Bird". Although the relationship between the "tide of fate" mentioned by the president and the "flashing wheel" in the message is still unknown, the caster can still experience many events that happened one after another in the plane of Faerun. At work, I feel that a crisis of "the mountain is about to come and the wind is full of the building" is slowly approaching.
And as a new legend who doesn't know enough about many secrets, if he wants to survive and develop in the shadow of "fate", improving his own strength as soon as possible is the only effective way.
However, no matter how beautiful the dream is, the reality will still show its cruelty nakedly.
For example, now Punk really wants to continue to spend all his time doing research, but the most embarrassing situation he faces is still the thorny problem that he has never avoided since he set foot on the path of a mage—he is starting to be short of resources again .
There is no way, the magic research at the legendary level is too resource-intensive. In order to learn spells one by one, the caster with a powerful inheritance still has to use every bit of resources to fill research and experiments like a bottomless pit.
In fact, before the war with Aimoda, the treasures from the "God of Red Sand" in Punk's hands were already facing the embarrassment of being exhausted, but Aimoda's "poor ghost mad dragon" had not been left to Punk. What a valuable loot...
In the thousand years after the end of the Great War, Punk continued to learn magic knowledge day and night while waiting for the advance meeting of the "Alliance of the Silent". level fifteen.
But as a price... the caster who did countless magic experiments finally used up the last bit of legendary material he got from the treasure of the "God of Red Sand"... Don't you see the pile of broken pieces of Aimoda? Is the meat still stored in its warehouses out of sight?
No way, punk really doesn't even have any legendary materials. A legendary golem can't be "pinched" out of the flesh and blood of a giant dragon.
A large amount of experimental research has rewarded the improvement of punk's level, but... a large amount of experimental data also means that since the day the meeting ended, the once "rich" Mr. "Destruction Whisper" has been so poor To carry out any experiment, you have to dismantle your own magic tower as a material...
Of course, it is impossible to dismantle the magic tower. No matter how poor you are, it is impossible to dismantle the magic tower. A solid magic tower is the last shelter for the caster, not to mention the amount of legendary materials on this magic tower of Punk. not many.
So when faced with the embarrassment of stagnant progress, how many choices are left for a poor mage?
There is nothing else to say, take risks, plunder, and seize every opportunity. First of all, there is no reason to let go of the "adventure opportunity" that the "chairman" mentioned.
You must know that at the level of legend, even an "adventure" opportunity is very rare, and it is even more rare to be able to get 100% rich rewards after the adventure is over.
For example, Punk's previous battle with the legendary red dragon "Melting Fire, Melting Fire Ripper", although it was not close to death, it was definitely considered "dangerous".
But after experiencing such an "adventure", what benefits have our legendary spellcasters gained?
A small pile of minced meat of poor quality? Or is it a Hatak Empire that is no different from the direct collapse?
It can be seen that adventures at the legendary level must have huge risks. Any mistake may lead to irreparable doom, but if it succeeds, getting a "reasonable harvest" is simply a luxury in most cases. In many cases, it is good to be able to avoid excessive losses.
But the "tasks" provided by the Alliance of Silent Ones are completely different.
Leaving aside the status of "Core Members of the Silencers" and the service of "Emergency Rescue" that can save lives at critical moments, just say that the three times the remuneration is already a treat that can't be met, at least in the peak period. The Netheril civilization also did not have the guts to promise such generous conditions as "triple pay" to the Archmages, that is, the mysterious "President" who is rich and powerful and willing to spend a lot of money, and the third-generation Silent Alliance with a small number of people have the capital With such huge benefits as the price of promoting "change".
It's just that... no matter how huge the benefits are, for the Alliance of the Silent Ones... especially the "change" that the president said, the spell casters who never believed in anyone still can't give enough trust.
The chairman's mystery is not just talk, if all this is a conspiracy of his, then those who jumped into the deep pit of the "new executive team" might not have a chance to climb up.
Therefore, no matter how good the treatment given by the "chairman" is, Punk still decides to wait and see patiently for the time being, and it is better to see what results the other members who joined the "executive team" get.
Although with the degree of selfishness of the legendary professionals in the "League of the Silent", even if Punk asked some people, he might not get any useful answers, but there is no harm in being cautious...
At the same time, the current legendary mage is far from reaching the point where only the "Alliance of the Silent" is the only way to choose. Don't forget that the "cooperative adventure" punk hinted at by Kane at the meeting has not yet responded.
In fact, considering that the "executive team" of the Silent Alliance can join at any time, cautious "wait and see" will also take some time to pass the test, so Punk's top priority right now is the cooperation proposal proposed by Kane.
Although compared to the tasks that the "President" can provide, Kane's "adventure" may not be able to guarantee huge returns. But... Now the caster can no longer continue his own research. During the period of waiting and watching the "Alliance of the Silent", he is also idle. Why not go and see what wealth Kane and "Smile" have discovered? .
"Well, then let's contact Kane first. That crazy knight is a guy who has nothing to gain, and since now he would rather have another "accomplice" who "divides the spoils" to ensure the success of the operation, then it proves... ...his adventure this time has foreseeable and lucrative benefits..."
Talking softly to himself, Punk put the magic chip back into the storage ring.
Then, with a flash of brilliance, the object that resurfaced in the palm of the caster had turned into a pink half-energy cursor.
Those are the positioning coordinates given by Kane to Punk. Through this cursor, the caster can release his projection to the designated location just like participating in the "Alliance of the Silent Ones meeting".
But now, the mage who never likes to waste time is ready for a new journey.
That's right! Put down the staff to study carefully, pick up the staff and fireball people, the so-called mage... it should be like this!
