Chapter 5: First pot of gold, rich returns

"Are you so confident?"

There was a little more interest in Philena's eyes.

Lear smiled.

"Your Highness's reputation is so great that even the children in the Ninth District admire him. Why would you lie to me for a mere blue crystal grass?"

Philena's sapphire eyes narrowed slightly.

This was of course false. What made her a little amused was the unshakable confidence and determination in the other person's eyes just at that moment.

It seems that if I dare to break my promise, the other party will really do something.
He smiled and looked at the silver-helmeted knight who was still excited.

"Raikel, take your men to retrieve the blue crystal grass and leave immediately."

The knight who received the order from the goddess herself suddenly became extremely energetic.

Kneeling on one knee, his eyes were full of passion.

"I will follow your orders, Your Highness!"

Lear was deeply moved by the resolute and life-threatening tone.

For the people in this world, it is a great honor to be able to speak to such an imperial noble lady.

However, as he was not among them, he not only did not feel honored, but even felt like laughing.

Just stand up and kick?
The long flaxen hair fluttering in the air made Philena look mysterious.

Slowly look up at the sky.

""

He chanted a spell under his breath.

The next moment, a clear eagle cry resounded through the sky.

A huge black shadow swooped down from the sky.

Casting a huge shadow on the ground.

Huhu~
The air whistled, the wings flapped, and the cyclone rolled violently.

The black shadow slowly fell to the ground.

It has the head of a falcon, the body of a lion, and a pair of eagle wings with a wingspan of more than ten meters growing on its back.

The amber eyes are as sharp as arrows.

The sharp, curved beak like an iron hook is full of ferocity.

Griffin!

The foundation of the Griffin Empire!
It is also the most powerful force in Loran City.

Every adult griffin possesses the power of a superior knight, and the highest level can reach 12!
This is the level that allows one to command a small unit in the Royal Legion!
The griffin stands on the ground, with a shoulder height of more than 3 meters.

The lion's body is filled with explosive power.

Just standing in front of this kind of life, one can feel the suffocating sense of oppression.

Facing a giant wolfdog that is over one meter tall and weighs over 100 kilograms, one can feel the pressure of the beast. The pressure brought by this fantastic life weighing three or four tons makes it almost difficult to breathe.

There was a hint of heat in Lear's eyes.

This may be the charm of this world - extraordinary life that does not exist on Earth!
At this moment, he felt that riding a griffin in the sky gave him a greater sense of achievement than riding a goddess!
Philena seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Li Er.

He was somewhat surprised to find that this young man, who had not yet condensed the seed of magic power, not only did not tremble in fear under the oppression of the griffin.

Instead, a different light appeared in his eyes.

It’s like seeing a toy you’ve longed for!

The griffin is a ferocious creature and a killing machine on the battlefield. How could it be treated as a toy by an ordinary person?

Eyes narrowed slightly.

She was a little confused as to where the other party got such confidence from.

"Go ahead, Reiker."

The knight in the silver helmet held his head high, like a general returning from a victorious battle, and under the envious gazes of all the soldiers, he turned over and rode on the ferocious magical creature.

The griffin lion kicked the ground with its body and flapped its wings wildly.

A cyclone exploded, and debris flew all around and the grass and trees shook violently.

The lift of the air current allowed the huge creature to quickly rise into the sky.

chirp~
After a clear eagle cry, it disappeared into the air.

Philena looked at Li Er meaningfully and said softly.

"I don't know your name yet."

"Lil Ayers, greetings to His Highness."

Lear put his right hand on his shoulder and again gave the noble greeting.

Els?
This surname is very unfamiliar, but he will become a pioneer lord, but you can know something about it.

It must be that their ancestors were once glorious. As for how they are now, you can tell by looking at the clothes they are wearing.

Philena nodded.

"Sir Lear, can you sell me the lava fruit seedlings in your hand?"

"I have new research that needs to be used."

"It takes twenty years for lava fruit to grow from a seedling to fruit, and it needs to be constantly cultivated during this period. This is still the shortest time."

"You can also ask someone later if this is the case."

After saying that, he added another sentence.

"Of course, I will pay you enough." Twenty years to get results?
The corners of Lear's mouth twitched. By the time this thing grows up, the daylily will be cold.

Only the top aristocrats with a thousand-year heritage would have the time and energy to slowly cultivate it.

"Of course I trust Your Highness. If you need it, I will sell it to Your Highness."

As he said this, he directly separated the 12 mud-covered lava fruit seedlings from the sapling.

handed over.

When the soldiers around saw this scene, their eyes turned green.

Philena was also a little surprised when she saw this scene.

He smiled, then reached out and took the mud-covered seedling without any hesitation.

The white fingers formed a sharp contrast with the saplings covered with black mud.

The next moment, the originally wilted saplings stood up visibly as if they had received a gift from the goddess of budding.

Full of vitality.

"Tomorrow morning is the time for the next batch of pioneer knights to choose the territory to be developed."

"After Lord Lear has chosen his territory, how about I give you your reward?"

"When the time comes, I will surely satisfy Your Excellency."

Lear narrowed his eyes.

"As it should be."

After agreeing, he whispered again.

"But I am in a tight financial situation right now. Can I borrow 100 gold coins from Your Highness for emergency?"

The soldiers who had been observing this side silently were all stunned at this moment, wondering if they were deaf.

Is this guy asking the princess to borrow money? !
It would be fine if a down-and-out nobleman who came out of nowhere and a bastard who crawled out of the slums handed a filthy sapling to His Highness, but he actually had the audacity to borrow money from his own princess? !
Such filthy things are used to insult the princess?!
They feel their goddess is being defiled!!
Damn it! !

Philena is overwhelmed by Lear.

As the princess of Loran City and a level 16 wizard, she had met many strange people, but this was the first time she had met someone who asked her to borrow money.

What kind of brain is this?
He waved to the maid behind him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Jasmine, get 100 gold coins for Lord Lear."

As he said this he glanced at him with a half-smile.

"Do you have any other requests?"

Lear praised it highly.

"Your Highness is generous!"

"atmosphere!"

“It’s admirable!”

Philena laughed.

"As long as you are satisfied, you can come and see me again after you get the territory assigned to you tomorrow."

As he said this, he looked at the maid behind him.

"I will pass on the instructions, and someone will take you into the manor when the time comes."

Lear nodded.

"Then I would like to thank Your Highness in advance."

At this moment, the blonde maid named Jasmine came forward, took out a cloth bag from somewhere, and handed it to Lear.

"Here are 100 gold coins."

Lear took it, opened it, checked it to make sure it was correct, and put it in his pocket.

Seeing the other party's carefree look, Philena smiled.

This guy.

With the start-up capital in hand, Lear didn't want to stay any longer. After a few polite words, he said goodbye and left.

Philena and the maid beside her watched Li Er disappear from their sight so cleanly and neatly, feeling inexplicably. Could it be that this guy is here just to get the 100 gold coins?
The two looked at each other, both finding it a little funny, not knowing how to describe their inner emotions.

The person standing in front of you is the eldest princess of Luolan City. Why can't you ask for anything else but gold coins? !

Lear achieved his goal, so he didn't bother to care what others thought.

He had inquired about the price of the lava fruit tree seedlings before coming here. These 12 plants could be sold for more than 30 gold coins in other places.

Another piece of news, the blue crystal grass can be sold for 50 gold coins, which is not bad. He didn't expect that this prince could give him any extra gains.

These 100 gold coins have exceeded the budgeted income.

Know when to quit, even if you make less profit, you will never lose money.

A smart gambler does not have a perfect hand of cards, but knows when to leave the table. The smartest thing to do is to never go to the table, but now he has no choice but to do it himself.

As for the supplies that Philena promised to give him, they were an extra bonus.

The huge profits he earned from the two 2-star news filled his wallet in just half a day.

Can two pieces of information worth 1 star be used?

Lear shook his head. Without any channels, the value of these two is indeed limited.

While thinking, his eyes turned to the fifth piece of 6-star golden information. Swamp Godhead!

The early morning of July 7th is when the dragon comes out of the four seas!
