Chapter 127 Cooperation (Part Two)

"Your treaty... is very professional." The Fly Demon nodded slowly.

Actually, it didn't understand it very well.

Although the treaty is short, with only twelve articles, its technical jargon makes it difficult to understand.

However, it still gritted its teeth and read two books, and could roughly understand some of them, namely that Lynn must have gained some advantage in these treaties.

But it didn't care; in fact, it was relieved.

If Lynn doesn't want anything, it will be uneasy.

If someone partners with you in business, asking for nothing in return and giving you all the profits, what's in it for them?

The Fly Demon was, after all, a demon who had lived in the abyss for many years. It had grown up in the cruel abyss and had seen too much ugliness.

"I don't have enough ore here, but I recently found a vein that belongs to a demon tribe. If you can provide weapons, I'll try to take over this vein," the Fly Demon said.

"Then I look forward to the collaboration," Lynn said with a smile.

Lynn didn't really care about anything else in the Fly Demon's trade with him, except for flesh essence, ores, and demon slaves of higher races.

Before leaving, Lynn specifically handed the drafted contract to the Fly Demon.

Back in Demon City, Lynn found the trailer and placed the pink gem she had bought at the market on the table.

"Aren't you curious about what this is?" Toby asked.

Lynn nodded, then shook her head. If Toby were going to tell her, he would definitely tell her.

"You know the Abyss Mother River, right?"

The abyss is the collection of all that is abandoned and destroyed in the world, but where there is death, there is life. No one would have thought that life could be born in such a scarred place as the abyss. In the original mother river of the abyss, the unspeakable group of abyss demons were born.

Since the first batch of Abyss Gods, as the Abyss has continued to devour planes and grow stronger, the basin of the Abyss Mother River has also expanded.

Later, the Abyss Mother River successively gave birth to the ancient and primitive Abyss Lords, Abyss Monarchs, and Abyss Lords.

Even now, although the Abyss Mother River no longer nurtures powerful life, it has transformed from a matter of quality to quantity, producing a massive number of demon eggs every day. These demon eggs have given birth to the endless demons in the abyss.

"And this crystal was born from the Abyss Mother River," Toby told Lynn.

Is this also an egg?

Lynn looked at the pink crystal on the table, wondering if collecting a hundred pink crystals would summon the Demon Lord.

"Legend has it that long ago, a great lord of the abyss had his physical body destroyed by a powerful enemy, leaving only a wisp of his soul that miraculously drifted into the Mother River of the Abyss. But thanks to the nurturing of the Mother River, he was reborn tens of thousands of years later, and his power became even stronger. He not only reclaimed his territory from his enemies, but also went on to touch the realm of the demon gods," Toby said.

Lynn suddenly thought of something and looked at the pink crystal on the table.

Seeing Lynn's expression, Toby knew that Lynn had guessed it.

"Every six years during her reincarnation, she generates a soul crystal in the abyss."

Goodness, it seems I was right after all.

Lynn's lips twitched; this was a huge pitfall.

Two thousand years represents at least four hundred stones. How long would it take me to collect all four hundred? In such a vast abyss, who knows how long it would take? What if some demon accidentally picked them up and took them home to use as weights on their beds? I'd never find them again.

"I'm sorry, this task is too heavy." Lynn took out another pink crystal he had obtained, and then placed the forged horn of the Abyss Progenitor Wolf on the table.

Although Toby didn't say it explicitly, Lynn knew that taking something meant taking on certain responsibilities.

"I told you, as long as you bring this crystal back, this broken horn is yours. I know it's difficult..." Toby said slowly, his face calm, but deep in his eyes was a deep weariness and loss.

"It's already... great that you brought back two," Toby said.

"It's alright. If you see any other soul crystals in the future, just bring them back. It would be great if you could bring them back." Toby pushed the broken horn on the table towards Lynn. "I promised to give you this broken horn as a gift. It has no value to me, but it might be of some help to you."

Lynn was silent for a moment, then picked up the broken horn of the Abyss Progenitor Wolf from the table, the veins on the back of his hand bulging slightly.

After standing still for a moment, Lynn turned and walked towards the door.

"Actually, perhaps even the wizard who created that ritual didn't necessarily believe it could actually succeed," Toby's voice came from behind.

"This soul crystal cannot be detected by any divination method. Apart from its indestructible nature, it has no other mystical properties. Searching for it in the vast abyss is like finding a needle in a haystack."

"This ritual has a special point in its cycle; it repeats every three thousand years. Five hundred crystals must be collected within one hundred days of the end of each three thousand years, otherwise, another cycle begins... This ritual is called Redemption of the Abyss, but the Abyss is never redemption..."

boom.

The murmuring stopped abruptly with the sound of the door closing.

"Hey, where have you been? I just bought the land next door for half the market price. I'm really good at bargaining! Next time you need something, you can ask me to help you negotiate the price." Ido's excited voice came from next door.

Lynn, who had returned from the other side of the road, walked straight into the gate.

Seeing that Yiduo hadn't looked in her direction the whole time, she wrinkled her nose and said, "What is this?"

"Have you found any promising talents in goblin engineering?" Lynn asked the goblin engineer.

The goblin engineers gave their responses in a cacophony of voices.

They discovered a decent number of newborn goblins among the newly formed goblins.

There are thirty-five of them, and they have all started learning now, but without the conversion ritual token, the learning speed is very slow.

Lynn has already asked someone to inquire about purchasing materials for the conversion ceremony.

He has ritual arrays. As long as there are materials, he can perform rituals on goblins in large quantities.

But next decade, we will definitely have to cooperate with the Fly Demon.

Over the next decade, Lynn had to prepare as many followers as possible to manufacture weapons, something that was certainly not something he, as a wizard apprentice, could do himself.

On the other side, after packing his things, the Fly Demon rode the Evil Winged Bird towards the other side of the plain.

Within the vast kingdom, buildings with demonic and elven styles are scattered across the plains.

Large numbers of people who were transformed into dark half-elves by the Abyss Chambers have multiplied and thrived on the land.

In the center of the plain, atop a mountain, a white castle comes into view.

Birds landed, and the fly demons entered the castle.

"Is it done?" Daio, clad in crimson armor, turned and asked from his seat in the center of the castle.

"It's done, but he also reached a cooperation agreement with me. This is something he gave me before he left." The Fly Demon recounted the deal with Lynn, and at the same time handed the contract written by Lynn to Deo.

Dai glanced at him, a meaningful smile appearing on his face. "Looks like he guessed that I'm the one behind you."

"How is that possible? I didn't say anything!" the Fly Demon exclaimed in shock.

"Can you understand the contents of this contract?" Dai asked.

The fly demon shook its head.

"Then why does he insist on giving it to you?" Dai E said.

The fly demon suddenly realized what was happening.

"He's not showing this to you, he's showing it to me."
