Lord of the North

"West Coast?" Jason thought the place was familiar.

"Yes, mages of the west coast."

Violet's reminder reminded Jason. The mages on this continent are gathered in a city on the west coast. Most of the people there are mages, although a large part of them are only apprentices who know a little bit of magic.

"Pure Heart Stone is a rare mineral, which is of great help to mages in meditation." Violet said a little excitedly.

The practice method of mages and superpowers is different. One relies on meditation to hone one's spiritual power, while the other cultivates supernatural power.

"Because this kind of stone is of no use to ordinary people or extraordinary powerhouses, those who buy it are those mages or their followers on the west coast."

"The price of this kind of stone was not very expensive in the past, but because it was sought after by the West Coast mages, the price was abruptly raised by the merchants."

"Price gouging?"

"That's right, some unscrupulous merchants were driving up the price at first, but in the end it was accepted by the mages of the Eye of Truth, so this price has continued to this day." Violet said, she marveled at the wealth of these mages And the speed at which they spend their money.

So every mage is piled up by a lot of money.

"Are these mages so rich?" Jason asked. He had some knowledge of these mages on the west coast, and because he couldn't awaken extraordinary power, he once wanted to put his idea on the mage road.

"Yes, they are the richest people in the world."

"Why are these mages so popular?" Jason asked again. Although he had some understanding of mages, it was relatively limited.

"Because they have been pursuing the truth all their lives." Violet said in a low voice.

"truth?"

"That's right, the essence of this world."

"Then they successfully discovered the essence of this world?" Jason asked a silly question.

"Of course not!" Violet glanced at him.

"However, the various medicines they invented in the process are indeed amazing."

"Besides, those powerful spells are also the reason why they are so popular."

"Powerful? How powerful?" Jason asked solemnly. He had never heard of any force enshrining mages in the north, so he didn't know much about the power of spells.

If, like the magicians in those novels in the previous life, if they are so powerful that they have no friends, they will definitely turn around and leave when they meet in the future, then they can't be called human at all!

"A large spell should be able to destroy a hundred-man army!" Violet said seriously.

"However, a mage cannot cast a large-scale spell independently. They are all ten great mages who can jointly release a large-scale spell. Usually, they will rest for a long time after the end."

"Then what's the use of these mages?" Jason was a little dumbfounded, so fragile?

"Their most valuable thing is not their magic power." Violet gave Jason a dissatisfied look, and then said, "Their greatest contribution is the truths they pursue."

"Some of them explore the past buried by history, while others look to the future to find the meaning of life."

Jason now understood that these people were archaeologists, biologists, scientists, inventors, etc. who had mastered magic.

"Then why are they huddled on the west coast instead of joining the countries on the mainland?" Jason was a little curious. It stands to reason that after joining these countries, the help of the country should be of great benefit to their research and strength improvement. ?

"Unfortunately, they can't enter the center of the continent on a large scale." Violet sneered.

"Why?" If these mage researchers enter the national institution, it should bring a lot of benefits to the country, right? They don't do things that are mutually beneficial and win-win?

"Because of the agreement between the Holy See and the Eye of Truth.

"

"What agreement?" Jason is like a curious baby now, what he heard today is much more exciting than what he understands?

"Because the research and truth pursued by the mages is contrary to the teachings of the Holy See, but the church can't guarantee that it can really completely eliminate the group of mages, so it simply expelled them to the west coast." Violet's tone was full of disdain.

Um? Jason caught the point instantly.

It seems that the relationship between the Kyle family and the Holy See is not as good as rumored, but Violet actually revealed this important information to herself!

"The strength of the church should be enough to destroy them, right?" Jason was a little puzzled again. Could the judges of the church's heresy trial not be able to eliminate these mages?

"Because these mages are united together." Violet said with a smile as if she had seen through Jason's thoughts.

"The Eye of Truth is a force formed by the union of these mages. They are not enemies of anyone, and they swear to be a neutral force among human beings. The Eye of Truth has gathered thousands of mages on the mainland. The Holy See dare not confront so many mages head-on. Otherwise, even if you wipe out the Eye of Truth, you will not be far from decline."

"However, those guides who left the Eye of Truth and went to the mainland to select mage seedlings are still easily assassinated by the heresy trial of the Holy See."

This eye of truth is like a hedgehog, and the Holy See is like a hungry wolf. The hungry wolf wants to eat the hedgehog, but it has no way to speak, because if it hurts the enemy a thousand, it will hurt itself eight hundred.

"I really learned a lot today." Jason sighed, not sure if it was true or not.

"I'm a little tired after talking to you for so long, so I'm leaving."

"Then I won't keep you anymore, go back and have a good rest." Jason said with gentle eyes, but it was hard to see what he was thinking.

"By the way, I hope you can help me pay attention to the Star Stone when you go back. I like this kind of stone very much." Jason finally decided to ask Violet for help.

"I can pay a high price for it."

"No problem, I will let my subordinates pay attention to the star stones on the market, and I hope that you can think about the details of our future cooperation." Violet gave Jason a meaningful look, then turned and left .

The slender back and swaying figure make people unable to take their eyes off.

"My lord, between the Kyle family and the Holy See..." Lancelot walked to Jason and whispered after seeing everyone leave.

"These are not things we can mix in now." Jason waved his hand and interrupted him: "We can now be sure that the Kyle family is worthy of our trust."

By revealing this matter to Jason, Violet revealed the details of her family, because from the outside world, the biggest hole card of the Kyle family is the Holy See.

"No wonder she rushed to open up the northern market. It seems that's why." Jason smiled slightly. It seemed that no matter how strong the alliance was, it could not stand the test of time and interests.

"It may be that the Kyle family has a disagreement with the Holy See." Lancelot said.

It seems that the Kyle family is preparing to move their family focus to the north. After all, although the power of the Holy See in the south of the mainland is deeply rooted, their influence is much limited when they come to the north.

"But since she dared to disclose this news to you, it means that they must have other cards."

"Of course, how can a business family that has been passed down for hundreds of years have only one hole card to ensure the family's longevity?"

The corner of Jason's mouth twitched, if the Kyle family would be overthrown if they lost the asylum of the Holy See, then these hundreds of years of development would be in vain.

"Lancelot, go outside and watch for me, no one is allowed in!" Jason looked at the wooden box next to him, which contained points.

"Yes, my lord."

Jason opened the wooden box, and there were more than 20 large and small star stones lying inside, the largest one was even the size of Jason's fist.

"System, start absorbing the integral energy source." He called the system in his heart.

"Detected the integral energy source and began to absorb..."

"A total of 972 points have been absorbed."

"Currently the host has 1113 remaining points."
