Chapter 923: Semi-Divine Weapon: Tree Master’s Shovel!
Matthew said regretfully,
” Looks like I can only keep the secret about Margaret to myself.”
“Margaret?”
Lele’s voice suddenly raised an octave.
“Are you lying to me?”
He looked at Matthew suspiciously.
Matthew spread his hands.
“My reputation in the Alliance should be pretty good, right?”
Lele thought for a moment.
” Alright, I choose to believe you, but you have to reveal which part of Margaret’s secret is related to you first. Otherwise, I won’t be able to give you a discount.”
Matthew smiled.
” Margaret isn’t completely dead.”
Lele’s pupils instantly constricted as he stared at Matthew.
He maintained this expression for a very long time.
A moment later.
He punched hard and said excitedly,
“I knew it, I knew it!
“I can give you a 30% discount!”
Matthew said slowly,
” I can also tell you some things that happened after Margaret was killed, as well as some more secretive things.”
Lele hesitated for a moment.
” Then 50% off. That’s the bottom line.”
Matthew said patiently,
“Don’t you want to know how Margaret came back from the dead?”
Lele was even more shocked.
“Has she been resurrected? I’m not ready for this!
” Uh, 30% discount on labour costs. This is really the bottom line of the bottom line!”
Matthew took a deep breath and said slowly,
“Don’t you want to know where you can find Margaret, who has been resurrected?”
Lele slapped his thigh in despair.
“Tell me everything, tell me everything!
” I want to know everything about Margaret’s incident!
” Not only will the labour cost be waived, but I’ll also try my best to purchase the materials through my own channels. I’ll reduce the cost of the materials to around 550,000 gold!”
Bang!
Matthew placed a long-drawn contract in front of Lele and filled in the labour cost of zero, the material cost of 550,000, and other numbers in front of him.
The latter’s breathing quickened as he looked at the contract, his hands trembling slightly.
“Promise me that you won’t tell anyone about this deal!
“Otherwise, even if it’s for Margaret, I’m not willing to accept it!”
He looked like he was struggling.
Matthew quickly struck while the iron was hot and made a solemn promise.
Both parties signed the contract.
The moment the contract was signed, a new notification appeared on the data panel.
..
[Hint: You have signed a contract with a human mage. Do you wish to use the Contract Domain’s ability ‘Overlord Contract’ to slightly modify the contract?]
..
Matthew chose to deny it without batting an eyelid.
The Overlord Contract should be used to deal with demons or devils.
Through Margaret’s secret, he had saved nearly 150,000 gold coins.
Matthew was already very content.
Under Lele’s expectant gaze, Matthew cast a soundproof spell and began to describe in detail the whole story of how the Evil Empress wanted a child, and Matthew cheated the Divine Embryo.
Of course, the most important part was Margaret’s reincarnation.
After listening.
Lele was dumbfounded.
It took him a long time to recover from the huge impact.
” So, you’re Margaret’s father now?!
“And Margaret is his own mother?
” Uh, under such circumstances, is it inappropriate for me to confess to her?!”
He looked a little dizzy.
Matthew smiled.
” It’s indeed not suitable because Margaret is still very young.
“If you really want to express your feelings, you have to wait at least three to five years.”
Lele was shocked.
“Three to five years?
“Sir, you’re… Forget it. I respect your personal orientation, but I can’t understand it, and I can’t do it!”
His expression was filled with loneliness.
Matthew quickly realized that the other party had misunderstood, so he further explained Margaret’s growth cycle.
“.. That’s about it. If you want to visit her, you’ll have to apply to go to Cyberdragon.
“But according to Lord Soria, it’s better for us not to disturb her for the time being.
” Finally, this matter must be kept strictly confidential. You should understand the importance of this.”
Matthew concluded.
Lele nodded solemnly. He looked a little depressed and shocked.
After a long time.
Only then did he recover from his daze.
” Thank you for telling me Margaret’s secret. Otherwise, I would still be in the dark.
“In that case, I actually didn’t lose anything.”
Matthew looked at Lele in confusion.
The latter blushed slightly.
“The 10,000 gold coins just now were a lie.
” I was planning to donate 100,000 gold coins at Margaret’s funeral!
“Now, I plan to make an excuse not to attend this funeral. This money can be completely saved.”
He seemed to be in a much better mood.
Although Matthew felt that there was definitely a problem with the logic, he was naturally happy that the other party was willing to enlighten him like this.
“So, when do we start?”
He shook hands with Lele.
The latter said with certainty,
“We’ll start tomorrow!”
..
Lele’s professionalism was still unquestionable. The next morning, he brought Matthew to the Alliance Mall to purchase wantonly. 500,000 gold coins were spent like water, in exchange for a lot of materials that he could not understand.
In the afternoon.
He personally led his apprentices and assistants to measure the base points of the Ritual Field in Rolling Stone Town.
