Hearing Father Andre's advice to Shad, President Stan immediately said:

"I don't think there is any problem with other compensation, 200 pounds, plus some other things, let me think about it...Are you interested in the newly released Rhodes brand 'Old Continent Minerals' series?"

This is hinting at Xia De, but Xia De is still hesitating. Of course, it's not that he disagrees with the deal or wants more, it's just that he has to be more reserved.

The president and vice president of the Prophet Association, as well as the old priest of the Dawn Church, were very considerate of Xia De's "hesitation", so they either served a cup of tea, or sorted out the documents with the secretary.

The imposing office fell silent, and Miya looked up at Xia De. Shad looked at the stained glass window, then reached out and stroked the cat slowly:

"I hope......"

Everyone looked at him:

"Don't let other people know about this transaction... In a few months, no, at the end of the year, I will explain this matter to Miss Galina, and I hope she can forgive me."

He tried his best to show a guilty expression. President Stan lowered his head and pushed down his glasses. Father Andre comforted softly:

"This is not a disgrace to your reputation, Mr. Hamilton. Only when you have the courage to admit your mistakes can you better make up for the irreversible mistakes."

"A piece of lifetime ownership of the founding series, 200 pounds in cash, plus a piece of [Old Continent Minerals - Cavill Gem Mine], in exchange for the teardrop spar in your hand."

President Stein concluded:

"I think that's all right, Mr. Hamilton, which one do you want to pick?"

"Initiation·Knowledge."

Shad said without hesitation that he suspected that if he chose "Founding Destiny", other things would happen to Tobesk:

"Shall I hand over this spar to you now?"

He pointed to the wooden box on the table.

President Stan glanced at Father Andre:

"No, no, this spar is in your hands first, and we will send someone to take it away when it is appropriate, yes, when it is appropriate. However, please do not tell anyone about this spar, and put it in this box Just put it away and put it away. Of course, don’t be too nervous, in fact, it doesn’t have much value to others except for our Prophet Association.”

The best soothsayer in Tobesk picked up the lead box at his feet. Although [Wise Stone] is not a relic in the strict sense (Note), it is not something that can be placed at will:

"As for [Founding·Knowledge], because that card is still in the association's southern headquarters, it will take half a month to a month before it can be sent to Tobesk, but I think it will be fine before the end of this year. You know , It is winter now, and the heavy snow makes steam train transportation extremely dangerous."

As President Stan said, he asked Father Andre to fetch a pen and paper, and drew up the contract of this transaction with Shade, as well as the documents about the ownership of [Founding·Knowledge]. Taking advantage of the re-drafting of the contract, the vice president, Mr. Judith, went to the Prophet Association to invite the accountants and lawyers of the association, and withdrew 200 pounds in cash from the financial department.

"and this."

Mr. Judith pushed a palm-sized flat wooden box to Shade. On the back of the wooden box was the Rhodes brand "Sun, Moon and Stars" on the back, and on the front was the Ouroboros symbol of the Prophet Association. This kind of wooden box is a professional Rhodes card box sold by the Prophet Association, but because the price is extremely expensive, only a few particularly wealthy players will buy it.

Now in that box, there is a whole new set of Rhodes cards. In addition to the special rule card [Old World Minerals·Cavill Gem Mine] promised to Shad just now, there are two special cards belonging to the [Old World Minerals] series. Playing cards.

"As you know, unless it is a celebration, commemoration, or event jointly held with the major kingdoms, the Prophet Association does not actively sell or give away any special rule cards, but only sandwiches special rule cards in a group of cards, waiting for people Go buy it. This is the rule of the association, which prevents the association from arbitrarily manipulating the flow of special rule cards."

The rather shrewd middle-aged man said with a smile:

"So, we didn't violate the rules to provide you with special cards, but just gave you a deck of cards. As for the contents of the deck, it depends on your own luck."

"I see."

Xia De played with the exquisite card box, and then checked the new set of cards. The feel and taste of the new cards are different from the old ones. The special smell of ink, like brand-new parchment, can make people feel happy.

Three cards with special card faces. The card face is a bird's-eye view of the corresponding mining area, showing the appearance of well-known minerals in the Old Continent on a small card face. As for the [Old Continent Minerals - Cavill Gem Mine] whose suit is "Sun 13", its rules are also quite interesting:

[If this card is the fourth card when the card is drawn, the card points can be adjusted between 12 and 13. 】

Compared with other cards that "roll a specific number on a 20-point dice" to adjust the card points, the requirements of this card are relatively simple. But under the blackjack rule, the fourth card drawn is "13 points", which means that there is a considerable possibility of a direct bust. Therefore, although the adjustment between 13 and 12 is not completely useless, it is not very effective. It may take dozens of times to really play a role.

"Interesting rules."

Xia De said with a smile, and then continued to admire the other two cards with special cards.

The new contract and the ownership documents of [Founding·Knowledge] were quickly drawn up. The Prophet Association had actually prepared it long ago. At this time, it was just writing out the prepared terms.

President Stan handed the pen to Shad, and said very seriously:

"Mr. Hamilton, after signing this name, [Founding·Knowledge] will belong to you completely before you die."

"Yes, and this beautiful blue gem, you can take it away at any time."

Shad nodded and wrote "Shad Suren Hamilton" at the end of the two documents.

Under the witness of the priest, the two hands were held together. Although everyone is satisfied with this transaction, Shad thinks that he is probably the most satisfied one.

After talking about the transaction, the gentlemen of the Prophet Association had to return to Silver Cross Avenue, but Shade didn't leave immediately, but wanted to talk to Priest Augustus about the matter.

It happened that the priest was not in the church today. He was arranged by Bishop Owen to take the young priests of the church to the slums in the north of the city to deliver some things, but he would be back within half an hour, so Shade did not leave in a hurry.

Seeing that Miya was still curious about the heavy snow outside, he took the cat outside again. This time, I tried to let Littlea run by herself. This lazy cat walked outside on the snow for a while, but quickly lost interest, meowing and asking Xia De to pick it up. .

It is worth mentioning that Xia De was very curious about whether Mia would try to lick the snow, but the clever cat just lowered its head and sniffed, without sticking out its tongue at all.

Anyway, when Priest Augustus got out of his carriage, he happened to see Shard standing on the steps of the church by the marble pillar, looking at the snow.

He didn't ask Xia De the purpose of coming here, he greeted Xia De and walked into the church. The two chatted all the way about the various activities at the Dawn Church before the New Year's Eve next month, and they didn't start talking about business until they returned to Priest Augustus's own room.

"Wednesday's matter has been dealt with. [Wisdom Pyroxene] was used to make a deal with the Prophet Association. The target of the deal is the Rhodes card [Founding·Knowledge]."

"I'm not surprised by that at all."

Holding the teacup, the old priest said that the room he allocated in the church was not big, but the interior decoration was quite classical and religious.

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked yet, what are you looking for me for on Wednesday night?"

Xia De, who was holding the tired cat, asked. He didn't have time to ask that night, so he passed out directly.

"It was a surprise."

The priest smiled, stood up and opened the drawer on the side of the desk, and took out a white round badge:

"Look at this."

This is a bone product, and the priest himself carved the same skull pattern on both sides of the round emblem.

[Outlander, you have come into contact with the "miracle". 】

"Didn't you say that although you like the badges that are easy to carry, you already have one? Now, try stacking two badges together."

The old priest said proudly, so Xia De overlapped the white bone round badge with the "Witch Detection Badge". The latter is a silver round badge with patterns of thorns, lion heads, and azaleas. It will automatically heat up when Shad encounters a witch. Except for going to the past for adventures, this silver round badge never leaves Shad .

When the two came into contact~lightnovelpub.net~, the bone round emblem slowly "melted" on the emblem with the "Duchess of Saladir" coat of arms. The melted bones wrapped the silver round emblem, and finally formed a thin white bone border on the outside of the round emblem.

At this time, the size of the "Witch Detection Badge" has hardly changed, but the weight is a bit heavier. The white bone thin edge that wraps the edge of the silver round emblem is decorated with dark patterns of elderflowers, making this emblem look more delicate.

"This is indeed convenient to carry, but is this made of angel bones?"

Xia De was surprised by this, the priest nodded reservedly:

"Yes, although I am collecting those bones, what I actually need is the strength of the bones, and the lack of some fragments has no effect. I have used those ancient knowledge, using the bones of angels as materials, and joined me in St. Byrence The little tricks I learned made this badge. But I want to remind you that after the fusion, only by destroying your original badge can you separate out the bone round badge again."

Priest Augustus recognized the duchess's coat of arms on the silver medallion Shad wore, but he did not point it out.

"It doesn't matter. The props you made should be considered magical items, right? It's really amazing."

Although there are materials, it can really be made, which is enough to show the craftsmanship of the old priest.
