Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 425: 146. Strong-willed as desired_3

As Noland Lee, who has lived two lives, he can’t help but feel moved.

But thinking about his current strength to speed run the Fissure Corridor, quickly accumulating wealth, the pressure of saving money to buy an island turned into high work enthusiasm.

“Starting today, I’ll collect alchemy weaponry from the Fissure Corridor. As for how to turn a large number of alchemy weapons into cash without arousing suspicion, I’ll deal with it later. Besides, before leaving Alchemist Island, I plan to search the Fissure Corridor to see if there are any chances to harvest some sage particles. If we live at sea, resource-type sage particles that produce pure freshwater can replace expensive magic water purification devices.”

“Do you need me to accompany you in the Fissure Corridor?” Denise Green blinked and muttered:

“You never let me participate in battles, and I’ve always been unclear about your current strength. However, since you can escape unscathed from the pollution zone and defeat Morster in a duel, you must be very powerful. I know I shouldn’t be nosy, but when you risk your life outside for me to bring back Rebirth Magic Power, and I can only watch and do nothing, I feel guilty …”

Noland waved his hand:

“Don’t overthink it, Denise.”

Noland coughed lightly and sat up straight, saying:

“I’m a bit, um, how should I put it, both cunning and chauvinistic. I prefer the clichéd task division that men fight outside while women stay at home. You indeed haven’t participated in battles, but you don’t need to feel guilty. You support me behind the scenes, provide me with emergency escape means, or just encourage and affirm me. It’s already helping me.”

“If providing escape means is your strategic value, then the encouragement and affirmation from you provide emotional value. For someone like me, strategic value and emotional value are higher than the combat value you would have if you fight directly. So you don’t need to feel guilty; your position in my heart is irreplaceable. I am willing to adventure for you, and I enjoy it.”

“That’s good…” Denise’s cheeks turned red, “I was just worried that I would become a vase in your eyes, so I said that …”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Can any vase help me escape? No, right? So you’re not a vase.”

Noland laughed heartily and comforted her a few more times before clapping his hands and saying:

“Alright, Denise, you can go. I’m going to make a trip to Cat Society Manor.”

“Okay, then I’ll go.” Denise stood up, took Noland’s spoils of war stored with her, and obediently teleported away with the torch.

Great figure, excellent temperament, gentle and pleasant, considerate, and not clingy. If Denise were more extroverted and showed her face more, there would be a bunch of people fighting their way to become her contractor.

Noland gave a wry smile, straightened his clothes, and left the study room.

Before he returned with the spoils of war, he had discussed something with Cindy.

This matter was related to Fars Scott’s research task.

By today, Noland’s relationship with the Golden Commerce Guild was no longer one of passersby.

Noland didn’t need to use grey means to help Fars recover the alchemical cube.

He told Cindy that he was willing to give up some spoils of war to help Fars get a new alchemical construct and restart the research task.

Cindy assured him that it was a minor matter, and Noland didn’t need to give up his spoils of war.

Previously, the Golden Commerce Guild had little say in the Alchemy Academy’s research tasks due to their low status in the Alchemy Cathedral.

Now things were different.

Because of repelling the invaders and extraterrestrial space pollution, the Golden Commerce Guild’s status in the Alchemy Cathedral had risen significantly.

Cindy promised to explain the matter to the guild’s supervisors.

It wouldn’t be long before Fars would receive a new alchemical construct.

With Cindy’s word, Fars’ loss of the alchemical cube should be effectively resolved. Noland didn’t need to investigate the Razor Gang further.

In fact, as Noland and Cindy discussed the spoils of war, the Re-forged Association, Blackwater Winery, Razor Gang and other forces secretly colluding with Tatis were being investigated by the Alchemy Cathedral.

If Noland went to the corresponding sector to check now, he would surely see the alchemy temple guards bearing golden alchemy firearms.

All forces with ties to the Imperial Military Intelligence Sixth Division would receive a “warm welcome” from the Alchemy Cathedral.

It wouldn’t be long before the Intelligence Department 6 headquarters far away in Tatis was surprised to find that they had lost contact with their intelligence personnel in Union City.

A series of reactions related to this would follow.

For example, Samuelson’s work in creating aberrations would be halted due to a lack of Life Elixir supplies.

And for another example, the Re-forged Association would bear the name of traitors, willingly accept punishment, or even hand over the alchemical formula of the alchemical cube.

Since the Golden Commerce Guild promised to keep Noland’s secret, he didn’t need to worry about being retaliated against by Tatis’ Military Intelligence Sixth Division, Black City’s illegal forces, or the Re-forged Association.

For this reason, Noland had completely removed himself from the events and remained completely neutral.

Moreover, he didn’t want to get involved either.

Now he only wanted to make money, buy a big house, and live a comfortable life with Denise on the sea.

Of course, considering that the Golden Commerce Guild might still betray him, albeit a meager possibility, Noland already had emergency plans in place.
