88: Copy Space Transport Scroll

Of course, the Humans and Orcs couldn't sign a formal contract for their cooperation; otherwise, how could they face the citizens who were fighting fiercely under their command? They only made a verbal agreement.

However, this verbal agreement still held some binding force until that mysterious power was dealt with.

Arthur didn't know that his actions had actually facilitated cooperation between the two sides.

This meant that if he acted against either side in the future, he would likely face a pincer attack from two Legendary figures, greatly increasing the risk of his operations!

...Desert of Death.

Just as its name implied, the place was covered everywhere in yellow sand, and no signs of life could be seen.

Silence and desolation were the normal state of the Desert of Death.

But today, contrary to its usual state, outsiders had arrived here.

That group consisted of five people, all cloaked in black robes, making their specific figures and faces unclear.

However, judging by their ability to fly across the air, they were all powerhouses of at least the Sky Knight level!

Just as the five were about to land, one of them took out an emerald-green staff and cast a life-filled protective shield over all five of them.

It turned out this person was an extremely rare Life Element Grand Magus, and only by bringing someone like her could these five people withstand the life force draining of the Desert of Death.

Afterward, the Life Element Grand Magus was heard complaining:

"The Desert of Death is truly bizarre. Even the protective shield I cast can only resist its erosion for half a day!

We accepted the mission to search for clues here, and who knows how long it will take. It looks like I'll be quite busy!"

Judging by the pleasant voice, this Life Element Magister was a woman.

After the Life Element Grand Magus complained, the person who appeared to be the leader among the five replied:

"The mission to investigate the cause of the Desert of Death's formation has been posted within the Cult for tens of thousands of years. This place has been searched thoroughly multiple times; how could it be so easy to complete!

Besides, we are only here this time to try our luck. If we really can't find anything, so be it!

But if you truly want to find clues, maintaining a calm mind and searching carefully is the most important thing."

"Understood!"

Facing the captain's lecture, the Life Element Grand Magus could only nod in response.

Through the conversation between these two, the identities of the five people could be roughly guessed.

They were likely members of the God-Summoning Cult, which had been passed down for tens of thousands of years and persistently explored all the mysterious places on the Continent of Gods.

Human Legend Isaac and Legendary Orc Gajulas probably never expected that they would inadvertently guess that members of the God-Summoning Cult had once again come to the Desert of Death.

Fortunately, those five people were only here to search for the cause of the Desert of Death's formation and should not affect the two kingdoms or Arthur... On the other side, Arthur also knew that the commotion he caused this time was too great, so he had no plans to act again in the short term.

With Arthur, the troublemaker, gone, the Kate Kingdom and the Orc Royal Court finally returned to their former tranquility.

Time flowed slowly, and another three months passed.

During these three months, Arthur made no extra moves.

Unlike the relaxed Arthur, Human Legend Isaac and Legendary Orc Gajulas were constantly tense.

They believed that the mysterious power Arthur impersonated would surely act again, but it didn't, causing the two of them to monitor the situation in secret for three months in vain.

However, a mere three months was not enough for them to drop their guard, as the previous attacks had only been spaced two to almost three months apart.

Of course, this had nothing to do with Arthur; even though three months had passed, he still didn't plan to continue acting.

During these three months, Arthur also had considerable gains!

First, through three months of continuous Cultivation and taking Cultivation Magic Potions, his strength finally achieved a Breakthrough to Silver Middle Stage.

Karona likewise achieved a Breakthrough to Silver Late Stage using Magic Potions.

Next was the trade involving the gold knight armor with the Dawn Merchant Guild, through which Arthur gained nearly thirty million gold coins again.

In fact, for Arthur now, thirty million gold coins was no longer a huge amount, so he quickly sent word to the Dawn Merchant Guild that he planned to expand the transaction volume.

Speaking of the Dawn Merchant Guild, the Mad Lion City branch that traded with Arthur had now become the most powerful branch within the Kate Kingdom.

And the Branch President of Mad Lion City, the Purple-Haired Girl Avril, also became the Merchant Guild Representative of the Kate Kingdom because of this.

With this achievement, Avril might be transferred out of the Kate Kingdom soon.

Based on the above matters, Avril was quite grateful to the power Arthur belonged to.

Furthermore, a larger transaction volume meant the Merchant Guild could earn more money, so why would she refuse?

Even if the Kate Kingdom couldn't absorb them, she could still sell those Golden Knight Kai to other countries!

However, Arthur's constant demand for cash payment gave Avril a headache. Now, every transaction required her to expend considerable effort to gather the gold coins.

Finally, after discussion, the monthly supply of gold knight armor was expanded from thirty sets to sixty sets, meaning Arthur could profit Twenty Million Gold Coins from the Dawn Merchant Guild every month.

Twenty Million Gold Coins in cash every month was already the limit for Avril, who was only the Merchant Guild Representative of the Kate Kingdom, so even if she wanted to earn more money, she couldn't.

Arthur was quite satisfied with the Twenty Million Gold Coins per month, as this amount was equivalent to a Duke's yearly profit.

With the Merchant Guild matters handled, it was time to talk about the new items added to Arthur's Portable Shop!

First are the three items Arthur decided to replicate himself.

The first item was definitely the Divine Artifact for escaping, the Level Nine Space Magic Teleportation Scroll, which Arthur obtained from Dean.

"Level Nine space teleportation scroll: Created painstakingly by a Space Magister of at least the Grand Magus level. It can teleport the user up to a distance of one hundred kilometers in any direction, according to their will.

It is a Divine Artifact for tracking and escaping!

Price: One Hundred Twenty Thousand Gold Coins"

The price within the System was still very affordable. The space teleportation scroll was only Twenty Thousand Gold Coins more expensive than the Meteor Shower Scroll.

By spending One Hundred Twenty Thousand Gold Coins, one could gain an extra life in a critical situation, making it extremely worthwhile.

For the second and third replicated items, Arthur copied Magic Potions that could accelerate the Cultivation of Earth Knight and Sky Knight levels.

Since Arthur couldn't think of other items to replicate temporarily, he copied these two essential Magic Potions first.

Their prices in the Portable Shop were Ten Thousand Gold Coins and Thirty Thousand Gold Coins, respectively.

The Magic Potions are universal for Knights and Mages, meaning the Magic Potion that promotes Earth Knight Cultivation can also promote Magister Cultivation.

Arthur, having replicated the Earth Knight level Magic Potion, immediately sent thirty bottles to his parents.

Although Arthur's parents already knew he had capabilities.
