Chapter 1646 Determination
“Do more on my behalf? To please Skolke?”
After hearing this sentence, Mo Tan was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Luna, who had a calm expression: "You mean, in addition to the alchemy creation called [Sweet Rice Ball], you also need something extra..."
Luna is very He simply nodded and interrupted: "Yes, because essentially [Sweet Rice Balls] do not have any positive effects on the human body. Those people you mentioned before can use them temporarily. They return to Doumbouya City. After that, you can still eat normal food, right?”
“That’s right”
Mo Tan rubbed the alchemy chess piece between his fingers and replied hesitantly: "Although what Shalia said before does make some sense, I don't think the garrison here is so stingy that they even care about how many more mouths they have to eat. What's more, they are still people with little fighting ability."
Luna reopened her alchemy notebook that seemed to be endless and said without raising her head: "But the people on the other side, they. They don’t get normal supplies, and they lack enough survival resources, plus...you guys seem to be asking for a lot of conditions that would make things difficult for those people?”
“That’s how it looks on the surface.”
Mo Tan shrugged and said seriously: "If we want to reach cooperation with Skolke without suffering too much criticism, we must let everyone see our tough side, but..."
Luna stopped turning the page: "But what?"
"Huh, it doesn't matter what I tell you."
Mo Tan took a breath and said softly: "I have already told Ms. Chao Yuekui in private, and I will tell you in my own name Skolke signs another contract, the content of which will be against that The seemingly unfair part is a check and balance."
Luna paused for two seconds, and then said frankly: "I don't understand."
"You can understand it. , assuming that the contract on the surface says 'necessary time This side will prioritize the sacrifice of Skolk', so in the supplementary terms I signed with them privately, it will be written that 'Black Van Priest promises to treat Skolk equally at the tactical level'."
Mo Tan scratched his cheek and explained patiently Said: "This is actually not complicated. Although there will be strict requirements at the level of the Holy Church Alliance, as long as I, as the actual executor, do not fulfill those contents, the unpleasant contents of the first contract will be offset. Lost.”
Luna raised her head and glanced at Mo Tan, and said sternly as if to prove that she was smart: "Offset, I can understand it. There is also a theory of offset in alchemy, but... it may not go smoothly, right?"
"Definitely, after all, the impression left by both sides on each other in the past was that they were 'not enemies'. It was okay here, but Skolke was often coldly rejected by Doumbouya."
Mo Tan nodded slightly, shrugged and said: "Coupled with those conditions that are very overbearing and arrogant as you can imagine, even with my personal guarantee, the initial stage of cooperation will probably not be too pleasant, and estrangement and suspicion are inevitable. Yes, but that is also a necessary process, and whether it is despicable or taking advantage of others' danger, if they want us to accept those compatriots who have no fighting ability, they must agree to the conditions proposed here, even if they are full of doubts, even if they are unwilling No."
Luna looked at Mo Tan in surprise, but her voice was as calm as ever: "You mean, you are bad?"
"I just think this method is not enough. 'Good', but I don't feel like I'm 'bad'."
Mo Tan spread his hands and smiled briskly: "Because from an objective point of view, I have no intention of persecuting Skolke. On the contrary, while I want to gain his power, I also sincerely hope that I can Helping them is like me deliberately tricking a hungry person into the room, but the purpose is to let him have a full meal. Although the act of 'cheating' is not commendable, my purpose has a positive meaning. "
Luna understood Mo Tan's meaning easily and nodded: "That seems to be true, then you are not bad."
"Thank you."
Mo Tan smiled and nodded, and said with a smile: "In short, everything so far is under control, so you just need to do what I want you to help with. There is no need to go to Scotia. Erke suffers."
"No, I'm going."
As a result, Luna shook her head, lowered her eyes and looked at the notes on her lap again, and said lightly: "I have nothing to do here for the time being. If I go over there, it will be useful."
Mo Tan pinched his eyebrows and shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, no..."
"I heard that they don't have doctors, and many injured people will die easily."
While flipping through the notes on her lap, Luna said calmly: "Although I am not a pharmacist, if I go there, I should be able to help a little."
Mo Tan scratched a little tangledly He held his own hair and sighed deeply: "I don't support your decision. The current situation is more complicated. Both of us can't even do the most basic help. It's too dangerous to leave you there."
"I will come back when you say we can help each other."
Luna closed the huge alchemy notebook in her hand, turned and walked out the door, and said without looking back: "I'll pack it up Let’s go with them later.”
Seeing that the girl no longer wanted to talk to him, Mo Tan quickly stood up and chased after her, his tone a little anxious: "I have the responsibility to protect you."
"I have just proved that I can protect myself."
Luna turned to look at the red-faced man who was walking with Mo Tan. Yi Zhao, then looked at Mo Tan's worried black eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled up with an imperceptible arc: "And you asked me to come here because you wanted me to play some role. As an alchemist, ”
Mo Tan opened his mouth, but was speechless. After all, what he said was right. In terms of self-preservation ability, the red-faced female knight behind him was knocked down in one glance. The reason for the latter The shameless reason for letting Luna follow him was indeed because of her irreplaceable alchemy skills.
In addition, the garrison in Doumbouya City has not yet begun to reorganize, and the materials for the alchemy workshop have not yet been delivered. Luna's stay in this place is 'full of waste' in Motan's opinion. There is indeed no use in the city, and if she goes there in the name of 'Black Van Priest' Skolk's help...
"Phew."
Mo Tan let out a sigh of relief and said sternly to Luna: "I still don't want you to go."< br>
“Well, then you don’t want to.”
Luna, who knew very well that the person in front of her was always worried about taking responsibility for her own accident, nodded lightly, then turned around and walked out. As she walked, she said to Mo Tan, who was standing there blankly: "Come here and help me."
“Huh?”
“There are a lot of things, and it’s very tiring to pack them by myself.”
“Uh…”
“Well, let’s go.”
……
Twenty minutes later
Game time PM19:21
Doubua City Officers’ Quarters, Room 1
“That’s probably it. " Luna stuffed the last two bundles of suspicious reagents into the space bag, patted her little hands, and nodded to Mo Tan, who looked helpless: "I'm done."
The latter twitched the corner of his mouth, turned around and looked around at this 'room' where Luna had only lived for one day, but could hardly see its original appearance, and said with a dry smile: "You have finished cleaning up... What are the rest of them?”
“Come here if you don’t want to bring them.”
Luna said casually, and then dragged Mo Tan to the room. In the center, he pointed to the square metal table in front of him and said: "This is my alchemy table. You can put the maps you often use on it. The water-textured steel on the surface has a rubbing effect, and you can put the latest map on it. Traces of a map were left on it, and then..."
She casually opened a mezzanine on the side of the alchemy table, took out two exquisite small boxes and placed them in the grooves on the corner of the table.
"I made it out of boredom some time ago. This is the latest model of chess piece. It can be adsorbed on the alchemy table and leave traces of different colors when you drag it, just like the lines and arrows you usually draw on the map. .”
Luna opened one of the boxes, and the white food He brushed his fingers over a row of lifelike chess pieces and said calmly: "Oh, by the way, if you keep holding this thing in your hand, it will emit a certain amount of heat and be very warm. However, the magic power inside is limited. If you find that it does not light up, When they are no longer hot, just put them back into the box and stuff them back into the alchemy table. It will be replenished soon."
Mo Tan nodded in confusion, with a stunned expression: "Oh!"
"Then this way."
< br>Luna put the exquisite alchemy chess piece in her hand back into the box and walked away He went to the wooden wall cabinet between the two windows, opened it casually, pointed to the pile of crystal bottles with various labels inside, and said: "There are some potions in here, most of them are used to replenish physical strength. The effect I wrote them all on notes, and some are for nourishing purposes.”
Mo Tan's face froze: "Nourishment..."
"Well, because I don't like to sleep, I need nourishment because I am not in good health. But I have all the materials with me. I will leave these finished products here. I will go back. I will get a batch of new potions with better effects. You can use whatever is in the cabinet."
Luna ignored Mo Tan and just walked to the low cabinet at the head of the bed. Point to the one above The thing shaped like a teapot said: "This is for refreshing, and the smell is pretty good. I made this and thought it was ugly. I was a little dissatisfied, so I made another one. This one is here. ”
Mo Tan went to the item with the words [Awakening Incense Burner·Specialized Night Use] on the panel and smelled it. Sure enough, he smelled an aroma that refreshed him. He felt a little Like coffee beans.
“Oh, by the way, I also got a statue of the Goddess of Dawn in the cubicle over there. I bought it in the City of Light at that time. Although it is very cheap, it should also be used for praying.”< br>
Luna yawned and sat lazily on the bed. She kicked off her boots sleepily and flipped through the alchemy notebook. She said in a sleepy voice: "It's okay. I'll read for a while. Let's leave when we set off." Someone call me."
Mo Tan tried to make a final struggle: "But..."
"If you don't call me, I will go there by myself. I remember how to go. "
"You..."
"You don't have much time, right? Do you really want to stay here?"
"..."
...
A moment later
"Senior, do you really want Miss Luna to go with you?"
Back to the chapel On the way, Yi Zuo whispered uneasily behind Mo Tan: "I also think it's a bit too dangerous over there."
Mo Tan sighed softly and said helplessly: "It's too late. I think she may have sympathized with Skolke directly after hearing what Yue Kui said. She wanted to do something to help those people. I said everything I needed to say. , as you can see, she couldn’t listen at all, and was not even willing to follow I'm talking on a channel."
"This..."
Yizou paused, opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally said nothing, just frowning unnoticeably. He frowned and easily kept up with the opponent's gradually accelerating pace.
She could see that Mo Tan was actually a little anxious. In fact, as one of the people who knew the ingredients of 'Black Brahma' best, Yi Zou felt that her senior's rhythm was particularly tight during this period. Not to mention when he was on the road before, he was not 'awake' for more than an hour every day. Even when he arrived in Doumbouya City, he was never 'calm' for even a minute in the true sense.
So looking at Mo Tan's helpless and anxious profile, Yi Zhao almost immediately put behind the clues that he had just noticed instinctively, and meekly and obediently stopped talking.
Facts have proved that Yi Zuo's guess was not wrong. Mo Tan's current rhythm is indeed extremely tight. You must know that it is already past dinner time, and Ji Xiaoge and others are still waiting for Mo Tan at Tianzhu Mountain. 'Go online and set off, but he has to arrange most of Skolk's things within today. In addition, Luna suddenly made a mess again. Although it can't be said that it burned his butt, it seemed to be a little bit at this moment. Worried.
But even so, when he walked into the office at the end of the second floor of the chapel, he still tried to look calm and calm. After all, Shalia and Yuekui were different from Luna and Yizuo. Now He's not even Mo Tan's 'own' person.
So he should hold it or hold it.
"How's the research going?"
Mo Tan, who walked directly into Xalia's adjutant's office without even knocking on the door, walked straight to the central table filled with documents and almost He could block people in front of the table behind him and asked Shalia who was writing quickly at the desk.
"It's just in time. I just finished the draft and haven't had time to discuss it with Ms. Yuekui."
Xia Liya first turned her head and glanced at Yuekui sitting next to her, and then directly turned to the person in front of her. A piece of parchment was handed to Mo Tan's face: "You should take a look first."
"Well...I think there is nothing wrong with the general direction."
Mo Tan took the parchment and glanced at it a few times, then smiled and said: "It's just the details that I think can be adjusted a little."
“For example?”
"Give me the quill, and I'll change it for you."
"Take it."
......
Five minutes later
Shivering Putting down the draft of the contract in her hand, which was no less than ten times more extreme than before, Xia Liya looked at Mo Tan as if she had seen a ghost, even her voice was trembling——
"Are you crazy!?"
