"Is there only one such Scroll of Trials?" Cross hadn't left Wickburg in a long time, and he didn't want to be blinded by Augusta's use of a rotten street thing.

"Of course it's more than that, but I promise you can exchange this trial scroll for riches you can't imagine if you want. At least the aliens in the Warcraft Forest are willing to trade the entire clan's property for this trial scroll. Augusta replied. His estimation was still too conservative, and those aliens were willing to pay any price for this trial scroll.

"I think that with your current status, you should disdain to use that kind of indiscriminate means to deceive a little person like me. Despite believing it in his heart, Cross still squeezed his words.

"Hehe, if it weren't for the fear of being exploited to prevent my original deal with the Earl from being completed, do you think I would be willing to take out the precious Trial Scroll to continue the previous transaction?"

"Please don't get me wrong!" Hearing the displeasure in Augusta's tone, Cross hurriedly argued, the current Wickoborg does not have to go in the past, and it can't afford to offend a big man like Augusta.

"Misunderstanding? I hope so. My sincerity is enough, if you don't want to, forget it, anyway, if there are any bad consequences caused by it, I hope the count will not be counted on my head. Augusta's tone grew stiff.

"I mean, there is no Sanctuary powerhouse in Wickor Fort right now that can meet your requirements. "Cross has played a little trick, the absence of a Sanctuary that meets the requirements does not mean that there is no Sanctuary.

If Cross were careful enough, he would have noticed that Augusta had always restrained himself from staying outside the boundary line on the periphery of the original castle, which was enough to explain his attitude, and Augusta's words also revealed enough information that a single "remote repair" could say a lot.

Unfortunately, there was no if, and Kroos was undoubtedly impressed by Augusta's deal. Now he was in a hurry to close the deal so he could get his hands on that precious Trials Scroll. Cross wasn't prepared to use the trial scroll for himself, but was moved by Augusta's remark that "the alien race is willing to exchange the property of the whole clan", and he had also wandered in the Warcraft Forest when Wickobaut was at its peak, and there were many things in the alien race that made his eyes hot.

"When did I say that you must send a Sanctuary powerhouse? Augusta emphasized.

"Forgive me for being low, there is no difference between the two in my eyes. Cross carefully worded his words, lest one accidentally provoke Augusta again.

"I mean that this strong person who guards the last level of the Heart of Defense No. 1, as long as he can exert the power of the Holy Domain, he doesn't need to master the real rules, in other words, all I need is a pseudo-Holy Domain. Augusta's calm words made Cross hear some kind of strong hint.

"Pseudo-Sanctuary?" Cross, after weighing the pros and cons, felt that the few people in the castle were not very reliable.

Hearing Augusta mention of a pseudo-sanctuary that only needed the power of the Sanctuary, Cross thought of something that had been almost forgotten in a corner, something that had no self-awareness, was very easy to control, and was strong enough to fully match Augusta's requirements.

"Is it okay if that strong man is just a soulless shell?"

"A shell without a soul, a corpse? Unfortunately, I'm not a necromancer. Augusta sighed.

"No, no, no, it's not a corpse, it's just a soul shell. Cross hurriedly explained.

"A soulless body? a puppet? It's a bit interesting, but I don't know how strong this body is when it has a soul?" Augusta's tone finally brought a hint of warmth to Kross.

"I can assure you that it's a very strong sanctuary. Cross said solemnly. What are you kidding, it was the black dragon Deer Knight, whose reputation shocked the entire continent, even though he had lost his soul, his body had not died because of it, and was still exuding a palpitating coercion.

Fortunately, Augusta's request was only for him to guard the last level of the Heart of Defense No. 1, which had been integrated with the castle, otherwise he would have lent Cross a hundred dares, and would not dare to lend the body of the black dragon. Whether it is dragon blood dragon meat or dragon claw dragon scales, they are all precious raw materials. If it weren't for the fact that the black dragon's body hadn't died, I'm afraid it would have been dismembered a long time ago.

"The Sanctuary where the soul has been extracted?" Augusta couldn't help but question, "Can't you imagine that the Noble Blood Clan has also begun to dabble in soul magic?"

"Please don't talk nonsense. The Earl is very knowledgeable and has a great deal of knowledge about all kinds of magic. Before the Great War of Nations, soul magic was not as taboo as it is now. Cross couldn't help but argue. In the eyes of the Blood Clan, the Holy See, which came after the Great War of All Races, is an out-and-out heresy.

"I don't want to argue with you on this aspect. As for the Sanctuary body you mentioned, I can only judge whether it can be used if I see it with my own eyes. Augusta said embarrassedly. Unexpectedly, his embarrassment made Cross trust him a little. If Augusta had rushed to the ground as soon as he heard the news, it would have made Cross suspect that he had premeditated.

"Can you promise you won't covet that thing anyway?" Kross asked uncharacteristically forced. In case Augusta had seen the hunt and had the idea of snatching, Cross wouldn't even have a place to cry. Perhaps he could resist with the Count's backhand, but even if he drove Augusta away, I am afraid that the remaining strength of the castle would be greatly lost, and he would have a great enmity with Augusta in vain.

Even with confidence in the Count's backhand, Cross was not arrogant enough to let Augusta fall here.

"As long as that Sanctuary's body isn't a mechanical creation, I think I can control my greed. Augusta made no secret that he was also a layman, and it was inevitable that he would be greedy, but it was his honesty that won Kroos more favor.

Augusta should be grateful for his good name, and although some say he was greedy and some said he was cunning, there was one thing that even his enemies had to admit, and that was that the Archduke of Bavaria was a man of his word. If Integrity could be used as a gold coin, Augusta's Integrity would be enough to buy an entire empire. So since he had made such a promise, Cross completely put his heart into his belly.

"Then please follow me. Cross made a gesture of please to Augusta, and walked towards the ruins of the castle.
