"Lord Knight!"

Lin Yi stood up holding on to the armrest, bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm a little hurt. I'm sorry."

The Dark Knight Commander didn't pay attention and asked straight to the point: "Is the news about the Flame Dragon Dragon Crystal true or false?"

Lin Yi pondered for two seconds and did not answer directly. Instead, he asked: "Master Knight, if the Lost City obtains the ore of the Flame Dragon Crystal, what will happen to our Sunshine Town?"

"Will they be forced to work as coolies and go mining? Or will they be expelled from the town and become wandering souls wandering in the wilderness?"

This kind of thing is not new.

The Yanlong Dragon Crystal Mine is less than thirty miles away from Sunshine Town. If the Lost City wants to mine ore, it will naturally recruit coolies from the surrounding territories to serve as miners.

And given how precious the Flame Dragon Dragon Crystal is, it cannot be ruled out that the Lost City will directly drive away the strange creatures in the surrounding territories and wilderness, and will not allow them to get close.

Nowadays, both the Mechanicus and the Evil Wizards Association have been completely offended. In Sunshine Town, they will still be afraid of three points. Once they are expelled and become wanderers, they will die without knowing how.

"Don't worry." The Dark Knight Commander seemed to understand Lin Yi's worries and explained coldly: "The battle report from the front line has been sent back. Your high-level strength potion worked wonders and repelled the invaders. This is a great achievement."

"Reporting to the Yanlong Dragon Crystal Mine is another achievement. The Elders Council has decided not to pursue you for killing Mayor Sunshine, and appointed you as the new mayor of Sunshine Town!"

"After I verify the Yanlong Dragon Crystal Mine, the appointment letter will be delivered."

Hearing this, Lin Yi had a bright smile on his face, and his anxious heart relaxed.

"With the guarantee of the Lord Knight, I feel relieved."

Then, Lin Yi summoned Lilia and took the Dark Knight Commander to the back hill of the slum again.

"The Yanlong Dragon Crystal Mine is here."

The two entered the hidden cave and went all the way down to the mine.

When the Dark Knight Commander saw the flame dragon crystals shining like stars on the stone wall, his eyes hidden under his helmet were dull for a moment.

Even though he had been mentally prepared for it, he was also shocked by this scene.

So many Flame Dragon Dragon Crystals, if he could get them...

The thought reached this point and was instantly extinguished by him.

If the Lost City could obtain the Flame Dragon Crystal Mine, it would be easy to create weapons or cultivate strange lord-level creatures.

This is a huge treasure that can change a city!

"Master Knight, the Mechanicus is also coveting this place. If we don't act quickly, they will get there first!"

Lin Yi's voice rang in his ears, bringing him back from his thoughts.

The Dark Knight Captain took a deep look at him and said in a loud voice: "I understand, the Dark Knight Guards will be stationed in tomorrow at the latest."

"As for the Mechanicus, don't worry, the elders will beat it!"

"By the way, I have one last request." Lin Yi climbed up.

The Dark Knight glanced sideways at him.

Normally, even hearing one more word would be considered a charity, let alone a request.

That's because of the flame dragon crystal that can blind a dog's eyes.

"Say." The Dark Knight said with a serious smile.

Lin Yi lowered his voice and said: "I hope the Dark Knight Guards will accompany me in a play when they are stationed."

"You go and capture the remaining residents of the slums to work as miners. I will step in to deal with them at the critical moment, so that they will be willing to follow me, and I will be able to manage them in Sunshine Town in the future."

Upon hearing Lin Yi's request, the Dark Knight Commander froze on the spot.

To be honest, as the captain of the law enforcement team of the Lost City and the captain of the Dark Knight Guard, he has seen too much filth and ugliness in the dark world.

But this is the first time I've seen someone as strange as Lin Yi.

"You are too humble to be a human being!"

After a long moment of silence, the Dark Knight Commander finally managed to say a word.

Lin Yi smiled modestly: "Thank you, Lord Knight."

Dark Knight Captain:......

Am I complimenting you?

Forget it...this guy is not a normal person to begin with.

The Dark Knight Captain borrowed a cursed crystal and returned to the Lost City as quickly as possible to report on the Flame Dragon Crystal Mine.

Both the Mechanicus and the Evil Wizards Association are coveting this place. The longer it is delayed, the more likely things will happen.

Lin Yi also returned to Sunshine Town, waiting for the Dark Knight Guard to enter the slums tomorrow. By then, the task of rebuilding Sunshine Town would be completed.

…

Lost City, Wizards Association.

The brown-robed wizard looked at the elder in front of him with a gloomy expression: "Elder, why did you reject the Mechanicus' proposal?"

"Now the Lost City is facing the siege of the City of Wind and the Elf Zerg. Our Wizards Association and the Mechanicus can contribute in exchange for an insignificant territory. Why not?"

The elder spoke calmly: "Great Wizard, you should already know the news on the front line, right? Our Dark Knight Army destroyed an insect nest of the Elf Zerg. The City of Wind and the Elf Zerg will not invade again in a short time."

"And all of this is due to the human potion master in Sunshine Town. If Sunshine Town is merged into the Mechanicum at this time, wouldn't that push this potion master to the enemy?"

"You have to know that there has never been a master pharmacist in my lost city!"

The brown-robed wizard narrowed his eyes.

Yesterday, this elder also accepted his own benefits and strongly agreed that he would promote the merger of the Mechanicum with Sunshine Town.

But after just one night, he changed his mind, and it was not just because of a master pharmacist.

There must be other reasons!

"Elder, if our Wizards Association adds fifty more lord-level Philosopher's Stones..." the brown-robed wizard tried.

"Great wizard, don't make it difficult for me."

However, before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by the elder.

Seeing this, the brown-robed wizard's heart skipped a beat.

The elder is so determined. It seems that he is not the only one who refuses to merge with the Mechanicum. It is estimated that the entire elders meeting has reached a consensus.

To make the six elders do this, at least the human doctor in Sunshine Town couldn't do it. He was just an additional factor.

So what’s more important is that there is a problem in Sunshine Town!

The Adeptus Mechanicus hid something from me?

The brown-robed wizard instantly understood the key points, and his face became increasingly ugly.

He was running around for the Mechanicus in the Lost City, but he didn't expect that the Mechanicus would hide it from him!

Seeing the expression of the brown-robed great wizard, the elder was stunned for a moment, then showed a bright smile and said slowly: "Great wizard, why do you have to pay such a high price for the Mechanicus?"

"I know you want to target the Cursed Queen of Sunshine Town. My Lost City will not interfere with you. Let your Wizards Association take action. How about that?"

From the looks of it, it seems that the Mechanicum did not tell the Evil Wizard Association about the Flame Dragon Crystal.

This situation is what the Lost City is most happy to see.

After all, neither the Mechanicus nor the Evil Wizards Association are subjects of the Lost City, so naturally they do not want to see these two forces cooperating together.

"Then thank you very much, elder. The Philosopher's Stone I gave to the elder earlier should be regarded as a thank you gift." The brown-robed wizard agreed with a smile.

"Haha, then don't bother the great wizard."

The elder said goodbye and left the Wizards Association.

Peng!

As soon as the elder left, the brown-robed wizard angrily smashed the table in front of him into pieces.

"Hmph, we agreed to cooperate, but secretly kept it from me. We didn't even have the most basic trust. I lost so many Philosopher's Stones in vain!"

The brown-robed wizard said angrily.

"Grand Wizard, the Mechanicus has sent an inquiry. When will the Council of Elders approve the proposal?"

A blue-robed wizard ran in and reported respectfully.

"Tell him that if you want the Presbyterian Council to pass the proposal, do it yourself!"

The brown-robed wizard almost roared.

The blue-robed wizard was trembling. He didn't know why the great wizard was so angry, so he quickly exited the room.

"etc……"

However, just as he was about to leave, the brown-robed wizard stopped him.

"Great Wizard, do you have any other instructions?"

The brown-robed wizard thought for a while, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said calmly: "No need to reply, no matter how the Mechanicus asks, just ignore it!"
To be continued...
