458 Chapter 352: Five-Stars Treasure – Ice Spirit Statue [1/3]

Richard looked at Adele while it pouted and winked at him. Her cuteness struck him. This girl…

Richard stared intently at Rebecca after he pondered.

“Lady Rebecca, your offer is good, but… It’s not enough.

“The Ice Empire is too far away from the desert. It’s complicated for us to mine across tens of thousands of miles.

“Besides, frost ore is not necessary for us. Even if we get it, it’s just adding flowers to a brocade.

His words were sincere.

He had never seen a frost mine before, and according to Adele, it was not indispensable to the current Twilight City, although it was precious.

The Twilight City troops had weapons, and it was unnecessary to forge them.

Only races like elves, orcs, and humans needed extra attention. It was because these races could recruit soldiers from the troop lairs and train the natives.

It was a racial talent.

They used the barracks for this, but the development path of Twilight City was different, and there was no need to turn ordinary residents into soldiers.

The weapons he obtained from the underground world were all sold for resources.

Rebecca subconsciously furrowed her brows.

She looked straight into the deep eyes in front of her and said solemnly.

“Lord Richard, trust me. You’ll agree to this decision after you see the frost ore.”

Her original bargaining chip was not this precious mine vein, but the initial decline forced her to change it when she saw how remarkable Twilight City was.

The original item was no longer qualified to be brought to the negotiation table.

She never imagined that the mysterious territory was complicated.

But there was a new problem now that she had changed the chips–she awkwardly realized she did not bring frost ore with her. So she could not show how unique the ore was.

It was sparingly awkward at this moment.

At this time, Adele was so anxious that she opened her eyes wide open. She would have agreed on the spot if it weren’t for her limitation to decide.

Richard fell silent for a moment. He was about to speak again when Rebecca suddenly took out a treasure and placed it on the table.

“Lor Richard, how about I add this treasure as a bargaining chip?”

Richard focused on the ice spirit statue of a girl in a long dress. It was crystal clear and exuded a cold aura. It was vivid and appeared to come to life at any moment.

He reached out to take the statue and felt the immense magic power contained in it. He immediately became interested.

He didn’t rush to reply and opened the attribute panel first.

His eyes suddenly lit up after he glanced.

[Ice Spirit Statue]

[Level: 5-stars]

[Property: 1. The temperature can be freely adjusted when placed in the territory. The highest temperature can not exceed 27 degrees, and the lowest temperature can not be lower than-20 degrees. One can maintain it all year round.]

[2. Able to summon 100 ice spirits. The ice spirits have ordinary intelligence. In battle, they can add magic to the troop, causing adverse effects such as freezing, cold, stiffness, and trembling to the enemy.]

[3. Able to use the skill-ice s.h.i.+eld to protect the entire territory. Duration: 1 hour. Cooldown Time: 24 hours. One can insert magic power into the statue to extend the s.h.i.+eld duration.]

[Description: A treasure created from the coldest ice. It possesses great power.]

‘What a 5-stars treasure!’

Furthermore, the attributes were so outstanding…

Each of the three skills was more practical than the last.

The first skill could be called a gigantic air conditioner. This thing might be futile use to other territories, but this was a desert… The dry and hot weather was simply torture to ordinary people.

A treasure that could adjust the temperature in a large area was nerve-racking.

The second skill was to summon ice spirits. It was not bad for battle.

What he valued the most was the ability to summon the ice s.h.i.+eld.

This skill made up for the defensive weakness of Twilight City.

They could also use it to increase the duration of the s.h.i.+eld.

It had undoubtedly hit the point he desired the most in his heart… The safety of Twilight City.

It tempted Richard.

This bargaining chip was much more attractive than the other party’s offer.

“One cannot exchange this treasure for half a year’s supply of fire dragon rabbits that your city produces. The rest of the deal…

“I need to see the frost mine before signing it.”

Rebecca finally revealed a smile.

The treasure was nothing compared to controlling the Frostwolf clan, although it was precious.

“It’s a pleasure working with you, Lord Richard. May the snow G.o.ddess bless our cooperation.”

The transaction was easy, and they settled the remaining details quickly after the general direction.

Richard asked the most important question after they agreed.

“Lady Rebecca, after we cooperate, how can we guarantee the benefits of both parties?

“The cooperation this time would last for a few years.”

Rebecca looked at him with a sparingly startled expression.

“You don’t know about the ice contract?”

Rebecca explained with a smile when Richard shook his head.

“The ice contract is the glory that the snow G.o.ddess has spread in the primary plane… The G.o.ddess will become the notary of it as long its terms are signed.

“The G.o.ddess will punish whoever violates the rules of the contract.”

Pride shrouded his eyes as he spoke.

“Less than ten G.o.ds can verify contracts in the entire primary plane. Our great snow G.o.ddess is the most official one.

“That’s why several merchants from other empires will come to purchase the ice contract and let the G.o.ddess bear witness…”

Richard pondered and nodded.
