1106 The tower lord of the philistine
Miao Aolan, the deputy tower master, who had suffered serious physical and mental injuries, and the four rune array masters who were traumatized, were all carried away by those tower protectors who quickly arrived.
It's just that the situation of tension and even renewed disputes expected by the Warren University scholars did not appear, because the tower owner of the Scholar Tower, Lady Moriel, who rushed to deal with the matter, ran out of the secret room at the bottom of the tower in anger because she noticed that the rune array of the entire Scholar Tower was abnormally activated.
Lady Moriel, the tower owner, who was working on some important research, had long silver-white hair, and although she looked old but not faint, she alerted Raymond at the beginning of the negotiation, because the old woman was too shrewd and philistine.
The old woman sitting in front of Raymond had a warm smile on her face, as if the smashed floor under her feet and the bloody smell that filled the air would not affect her mood at all. "Lord Raymond, Miao Aolan's mistakes can be revealed because of his serious injuries, but I think that the compensation you promised before should not be reversed because of Miao Aolan......"
Ben was not prepared to repay the debt and regret it, so he naturally agreed very happily, but soon after that, he regretted it a little and felt a headache.
As if he was an extremely cunning and philistine peddler, Raymond was speechless when the tower owner, Madame Moriel, reported the compensation items in the same way.
In the end, when the compensation list of more than 300 items, but the total number of low-grade magic stones was handed to Raymond, even the Warren University scholars sitting on the side were red-faced and looked a little ashamed, and hung their heads as if they couldn't bear to see it.
After taking out the hedron from the storage ring and discounting it for full compensation, the tower owner, Lady Moriel, solemnly repeated all the rules of the Scholar's Tower, and finally issued a very serious warning. "Lord Raymond. Although your strength is quite high, the Scholar Tower is the most famous gathering place for scholars in the entire underground plane, and the previous regrets can be revealed, but if you want to dominate others, the Scholar Tower will not be afraid or flinch!"
It is reasonable to stipulate that Raymond has no intention of offending and violating, but when the tower owner, Lady Moriel, is about to leave, the Warren University scholars are in vain to refuse. "Lady Moriel, Raymond is here for the destruction of the Newman family eight years ago, and you were the mediator back then......"
Raymond, who was about to stand up, was stunned. And the tower owner Lady Moriel, who had a suspicious expression in her expression, was also a little surprised, and looked at Raymond for a moment before turning her gaze to the chaise longue that had been placed in the corner of the room and covered with a white cloth, and asked. "Could it be that someone finally wants to uncover the truth about what happened back then?"
Like a hesitant Warren University scholar, his expression was a little strange, and he glanced at Raymond before replying. "The child that little Luisa gave birth to was his. And that child has become a special being now......"
Lady Moryl, the tower owner who had reseated, stared at Warren, her eyes lit up. "A special being? Is it a ghost, or is it a ghost?"
"I don't know. I told you about it last year. But at that time, it was just a phantom, and it disappeared so quickly that I thought I was dazzled......" Warren, who seemed to be afraid of staring at her, turned his gaze to Raymond, and quickly added when he saw his unkind expression. "But I guess the possibility that you want to study it is not at all!"
Hearing this, Raymond's face sank even though he glared at the old man Warren, but the tower owner with a clear face, Ms. Moriel, hurriedly said. "Lord Raymond! Warren's research is absolutely different from what you think now, please don't get me wrong!"
Pressing the anger in his chest. Raymond's tone was calm. "No matter what kind of special existence it is, it's my daughter, and if this matter is publicized, I don't mind killing a few more people!"
Lady Moriel, the tower owner, who was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly. And the old man Warren, who wanted to explain, noticed that Raymond's pupils turned red, and quickly apologized in a weak heart.
The dreary atmosphere lasted for a long time before it gradually eased, and the tower owner, Lady Moriel, thought for a long time before she thought about it. "Lord Raymond, there were very few people who knew about the events back then, and I was invited by the city lord to participate in the division of the Newman family's property as a witness after the fall of the Newman family, and the cause of the incident was only hearsay......
She stopped talking about this, and Raymond, who had waited for a moment and didn't see her continue, couldn't help frowning.
And the old man Warren, who was sitting on the side, said with a wry smile. "Raymond, the tower master Moriel is the person who knows the old man and is most likely to know what happened back then, but it is impossible for her to tell what she knows without paying the price......
"Well, that's right! As the manager of the Scholar's Tower and the researcher himself, any news must be valued, but I don't know how much you are prepared to pay, Lord Raymond?"
The expression was indifferent but the attitude was sincere, but the expectation in the eyes of the tower owner, Ms. Moriel, was a little difficult for Raymond to accept.
Seeing this, the tower owner, Ms. Moriel, sighed, but she was very straightforward. "The Scholar Tower doesn't have any industry, in order to support so many guys in the tower who are dedicated to research, how can I support it!"
I've never seen such a philistine and honest high-level wizard, so Raymond simply said it bluntly. "And what price are you going to charge to tell everything?"
"Half a year's expenses for the Scholar's Tower! I will tell you everything I know about the Dao, and I can also tell you all about the speculations I made back then!"
Raymond, who was stunned when he heard the sound, didn't speak, and the stunned old man Warren jumped up. "Half a year?Half a year's expenses for the Scholar's Tower?"
Lady Moriel, the tower owner of Warren, glanced at her fiercely, but said lightly. "It's not a lot, it's just tens of thousands of medium magic stones!"
Raymond, who was very surprised, couldn't help but look cold, but the tower owner Lady Moriel, who was sitting opposite, continued to speak slowly. "In eight years, the city lord has been transferred to the karst defense line, and the participants of the war zone council don't know if the road is still alive, and no one in this Darkwing City knows what happened better than me......"
The anger in his heart was uncontrollably expanding, and Raymond, who was thinking about it, released the coercion and perception probe.
The overwhelming and irresistible aura made the face of the tower master Lady Moriel who was sitting upright a little pale, but she looked a little disdainful and disdainful, and sneered slightly. "Lord Raymond, for a high-level wizard who has traveled to many planes, the price of tens of thousands of magic stones can obtain so much information, do you think this price is still high?"
Lady Moriel, the tower master who only has the peak strength of the dawn level, made Raymond have doubts in his heart, he couldn't figure out how this old woman could have the confidence she has now, especially when he had already seriously injured the tower master Miao Aolan, and easily cracked the talisman array, but she was neither humble nor arrogant, but she looked confident and not afraid that she would not accept such conditions!
Therefore, before he could perceive the probing and coercion that did not hurt her, Raymond retracted his breath and said slowly. "The price is not high, but I am not willing to accept persecution!"
The tower owner, Ms. Moriel, who also cleaned up the slightly mocking expression, quickly brushed it off with a solemn face. "This is not persecution! this is a fair trade, not to mention that it is far more important for you to seek justice for little Luisa than these magic stones!"
Hearing this, Raymond no longer hesitated, and as soon as his mind moved, the reserve bag containing the spar appeared in front of the tower owner, Lady Moriel, and promised in a deep voice. "Well, as long as the information you provide can help me uncover the truth about the tragedy, I can still afford to pay the price!" (to be continued......)
