Chapter 26: Cooperation? Trade! _2

Link recognized it at a glance. It was left by Lanny Taylor. He didn’t know when exactly.

But it was most likely before the private message exchange.

The message read:

“Link Grande, whatever misunderstandings we have between us, we must prioritize the great competition between the two districts and the bet with Wizard Palo. I urge you to take this seriously, join forces with me, cooperate sincerely. I can assure you that my companions and I will follow your command.”

Signed: Lanny Taylor.

After reading the message, Link was at a loss for words.

I guess there is no such thing as a profit calculation in the Wizard World.

Otherwise, Lanny’s calculation was about to be slapped onto Link’s face.

She’s a thousand-year-old fox, what play is she trying to pull?

If Lanny Taylor really wanted to team up with Link, she wouldn’t do all this.

This message, like the previous private message, was preparation for possible accountability, with the intention of shifting the blame onto Link.

“Playing too many tricks.”

After giving a brief comment, Link left, feeling nothing.

After leaving the river and walking a certain distance, Link operated on his wristwatch and posted two announcements in the camp channel:

Major progress. Hope for completion.

Wait for three days. Good news will come.

What does Link mean?

He’s baiting the fish.

Then he switched to private chat mode and sent a message to Elise Clark: Have something to discuss. Can we meet?

Ignoring the dozens of private messages that followed, Link waited quietly for Elise’s response.

Soon after, Elise directly sent a request for mutual location.

Link agreed without hesitation.

Hey, they weren’t far from each other.

Link glanced at the direction, compared it to the incomplete version of the “World” map in his mind, and identified the place where Elise was.

It was a forest, with towering trees and dense shrubs growing all around.

He had passed by there before and did not notice anything unusual.

But thinking back now, it seemed very suspicious.

Generally speaking, when trees grow too close together, they compete for sunlight, water, and soil nutrients.

Not every tree can grow tall and straight.

There will always be trees that lose to their siblings and grow crooked & unappealing.

Or they simply die early.

But in that forest, just a glance from the outside, not even a single crooked tree could be found.

Even the shrubs underneath were exceptionally lush.

Disregarding the odds, Link headed towards the forest.

Keeping the map in mind and knowing the terrain, he moved with his reconnaissance puppets all around him, neutralizing any dangers.

Link’s progress was very fast.

It took him less than an hour to arrive near the forest.

As soon as he approached, before Link could use his wristwatch to make contact, Elise swished over in front of him.

“What’s the good news that you are in such a rush to find me?”

Elise had changed her outfit, now wearing a camouflage dress suitable for jungle operations, with a few streaks of oil paint on her face.

With the effect of the Stealth magic tool, hiding in the jungle, it was very difficult to detect her.

” I do have something to discuss, but I don’ t know whether it would be good news or bad news for you.”

Link didn’t play any games, he went straight to the point and said, “I really have found a probable way to complete our mission. However, our team’s abilities are limited. If we work alone, we may also be able to complete it eventually, but it would take a long time. I fear that something unpredictable might occur in the meantime.”

“Hmm.”

Elise’s rationality kicked in, she calmly asked, “So you want to utilize me, to contact students from the North District, or even better if they are Half Bloods, and not Pure Bloods?”

Link replied, “Half Blood, Pure Blood, these are your classifications, which I do not understand. I have only one condition, which is that members of the ‘Pure Blood Volition’ are excluded.”

“I see.”

Elise nodded, deep in thought.

A while later, she put two fingers of her right hand in her mouth and blew a sharp whistle.

Spiritual power and magic power were applied to the whistle.

Making the whistle sound travel a very, very long distance.

In a short while, five boys and girls dressed in jungle camouflage flew over.

All of these people were dressed in very rich attire, each wearing a pair of boots capable of flying around.

Which made Link was very envious.

“Elise, what did you say?”

A tall and handsome boy walked to Elise’s side, shoulder to shoulder, asking softly.

He did not look at Link at all, his mind solely on Elise.

Link felt a faint sense of hostility.

Elise immediately frowned at the boy and said, “Don’t make it difficult. He’s here to seek cooperation.”

Being still unsatisfied, she threw a punch at the boy’s abdomen.

The boy took the punch without dodging or evading, smiling, “I’m just overly concerned about you, that’s all.”

“Eh…”

Elise shivered, seemed to be hit by the direct confession, seemed somewhat helpless, “You guys discuss it, I’m leaving.”

Leaving behind this sentence, Elise disappeared in a swish.

“Hello, I am Monroe Brisegio.”

After Elise left, the boy immediately returned to his mature and capable appearance, with a friendly smile on his face, extending his right hand.

“Link Grande.”

Raised hand does not beat smiling face, Link and Monroe had a brief handshake.

“How do you want to cooperate with us? To have us continue to be hitters and hold off the others?”

Monroe Brisegio retracted his right hand but his tone remained gentle, however, his words were extremely sharp.

It directly exposed the little machinations that Link had been playing in the camp channel and private chat.

Link had never thought that he could hide his intentions from everyone.

On the contrary, being seen through was normal.
