Chapter 317: Chapter 287: Mithril and the Ascetic

Lis disregarded Stran’s expression and focused all his attention on the precious materials before him.

After arranging everything with Uncle Joyce, Lis was ready to leave Ice Peak City.

But since he had co all this way, he couldn’t leave without so form of reward.

Lis didn’t plan to ask for any of Dillon Kingdom’s magic items, thinking that even the collection of the Ice Castle Palace couldn’t compare to that of the Judgent Fla Magic Workshop’s warehouse.

Therefore, it seed better to let Stran prepare so tallic materials characteristic of Dillon Kingdom.

Stran had prepared so many!

...

There was no presence of ordinary tals at all.

Well-forged cold iron blocks emitting a faint glow, Star Sand with its vivid flashes, and the brightly colored, pure Red Copper, among others.

These were all relatively precious special magic tals, more esteed than ordinary copper and iron mines, having a higher affinity for extraordinary power and extensively used in the forging of low to middle level magic equipnt and even in top-tier forgings.

These materials filled more than half of the cases.

Although there were many, the most valuable items before Lis were not these, but treasures stored in other distinctive iron boxes.

Lis opened a wooden box placed at the very top, lifting the lid to reveal a standard rectangular piece of silver tal.

He gently picked it up, finding this silver tal weighed only half as much as iron of the sa volu.

Applying so force with his fingers, Lis only left a shallow mark on the tal.

The magic flowed smoothly within this silver tal, almost feeling no resistance or obscurity.

It was indeed Mithril!

Mithril, as a highly precious magic tal, appeared silver-white and was a tal firr than steel yet light as a feather.

It was said to have been discovered and nad by Dwarves, aning “mysterious silver.”

This was because, apart from divine artifacts and so unique existences, Mithril had the highest magic affinity of all tals.

Almost all high-level magic equipnt includes so Mithril to enhance the equipnt’s magic affinity.

Beyond forging magic equipnt, Mithril was also an indispensable material in many magic studies, used in high-level magic puppets, magic arrays, and more.

While having such wide applications, the production of Mithril was quite rare, only found in a few companion mines of magic tals.

This was why Mithril was so precious, rarely traded for Gold Coins; people usually bartered it for treasures of equivalent value.

Typically, adding a few grams of Mithril during the crafting of magic equipnt greatly enhances its magic affinity and is foundational for high-level magic equipnt.

However, the piece of Mithril in Lis’s hands weighed a whole pound.

Beyond the piece he held, there were two more wooden boxes filled with Mithril before him.

There were several other magic tals of the sa rank.

Radiant-blue Refined Gold, heavy and extrely solid, significantly enhancing the sharpness and hardness of weapons, positioned alongside Mithril as a top-tier magic tal.

Dragon Pattern Iron, naturally ford in patterns resembling dragon scales, was the best material for forging shields and armor, also possessing certain magic properties enabling it to absorb magic elents and self-repair.

The dusky Star Steel, twinkling faintly like stars, was said to co from beyond the Gaia World, known for its excellent malleability and high inclusiveness, making it one of the best forging substrates.

Beyond these, there were many magic gemstones flickering with colorful lights.

Lis looked at his harvest with great satisfaction, storing everything into his Space Ring, his gaze towards Stran grew much kinder.

It wasn’t that Lis lacked resolve; it was just that the other party had given too much.

Offering so much valuable magic tal, even the mineral-rich Dillon Kingdom must have needed many years to accumulate such wealth.

“I wonder if Mr. Moriarty is still satisfied?”

Watching the hooded man pack away all the valuables before him, Stran didn’t even blink.

No matter how precious, to Stran, they were currently just a pile of useless stones.

Trading them for protection was his primary concern.

Even though he had requested support from the Ice and Snow Goddess Church, Stran also hoped to receive clandestine protection from the Death Secret Cult.

The situation of Lukar being controlled by an Abyss Lord and forcibly occupying his body had quite an impact on him.

There was much he needed to do, and Dillon Kingdom needed him; nothing untoward could happen now.

“Hmm, not bad.”

A hint of a smile appeared on Lis’s face, probably the best mood Stran had seen this enigmatic man in.

“That person has agreed to your request, and they will co to see you in a few days,” Lis said, smiling at Stran.

“Whether you obtain their approval depends on you now.”

Hm?

Stran was a bit surprised. So soon?

Could the Death Secret Cult truly command several legends, being able to have one et so swiftly?

Lis tossed a grey spherical gemstone to Stran.

“This is that person’s token; just keep it safe,” he said.

Catching the gemstone, Stran held it in his hand.

He sensed an extrely covert yet distinctly formidable and sharp presence within it.
