Chapter 64: Chapter 61 Makar’s Conspiracy
At this moment, Makar took another look at the Soul Crystal in his hand, nodding, “This thing seems interesting, I need some time to thoroughly research it. Let’s meet next time we’re both free.”
The butler stepped forward, “Sir, please!”
Damn, is he showing me out now? Without the Phantom Crossbow Cannon, my journey to Earth Sea seems sketchy! How would I know when you’re next free? Meeting important characters in this game is not child’s play, you meet by either completing quests, or through special items and events, otherwise the guards will politely say, “The lord is very busy, please come again next time if it’s important.”
In a flash, Da Fei’s mind raced. Where else could I get a special item to meet him? Clearly, there are no more items, but isn’t there an event? Makar, as a Death Lord, has been hiding in the Human World for so many years, what is he plotting? Nothing other than ruling the world, I guess? Relying on force isn’t reasonable, so winning hearts and forming alliances seems to be the right way. If that’s the case—
Da Fei quickly said, “Teacher, actually, I have taken on a significant mission from the Elf Kingdom to save the World Tree and purify the Pool of Purifying Light. The Elf Kingdom has also decided to spare no effort in supporting me with materials and expensive specialized equipment like Wind Magic Array sailcloth, so I thought of the Phantom Crossbow Cannon, such a genius piece of equipment fits the bill for specialized equipment, right? As long as it plays a key role at the critical moment. I’m currently your student, if I succeed in saving the World Tree, you’ll also get the credit, Teacher! You would be the great hero behind the scenes in the Alliance!”
Isn’t the Elf Kingdom worth appealing to? Even if you, as the Death Lord, might reluctantly not want to help the Elf Kingdom, but you are still a Duke of the Alliance, you have to look the part, even if it’s tiring, I’m not afraid of troubling you.
Indeed, Makar was a bit startled, “Save the World Tree? You are the person chosen by the Elf Kingdom?”
Haha! He knows about this too? Well, of course, as a Duke, he can’t be clueless about such a major event in a neighboring country.
Da Fei hurriedly bowed, “I am not talented, but I am the one recommended by the Elf Kingdom from Elorin City. In 9 days, I will head underground! My vessel is Saint Anthony, gifted to me by Captain Renior.”
Makar mused, “So it is. At this stage, there aren’t many young people who can take on such a daunting task, and indeed, you are the perfect candidate.”
Da Fei chuckled, “Thank you for the compliment, Teacher.”
Makar sighed, “However, this matter is not so simple.”
Nonsense, an epic quest is definitely not simple! Otherwise, why would I be seeking your help?
Da Fei quickly replied, “No matter how tough, I will give it my all.”
Makar shook his head, sighing, “The Elf Kingdom is thinking too simply. They thought the contamination of the Pool of Purifying Light is just scattered Demons, thinking sending down a Warrior would solve it. Actually, once you go down, you may face a siege supported by Demons from various planes.”
What does he mean by various planes? Damn, whatever number of planes, I’ve already accepted the quest, so no backing out now! Da Fei hurried, “Really? Then, Teacher, you have to help me even more!” Even though it’s our first meeting, and the trust and friendliness might be at zero with this cheap mentor-apprentice relation, it doesn’t stop me from climbing along the pole!
Makar sighed, “Our Bright Alliance is interconnected, sharing both prosperities and losses. We can’t stand by when an ally is in trouble!”
Got it! Da Fei joyfully said, “Thank you, Teacher!”
Makar chuckled, “However, you might not know about the temperament of the Elves; they are high and mighty, hold grudges, and are particularly conscious of their dignity. Actually, I am burdened by the false reputation of being the First Mage, and over the years, I indeed had some displeasures with them. So I don’t want them to know that I helped them from behind, lest they think I’m looking down on them, causing good deeds to offend.”
Da Fei hurriedly said, “Teacher, with your noble character and magnanimity, there’s no need to stoop to their level; let me handle anything that arises!”
Makar chuckled, “What difficulties do you currently have? Let me see if I can help.”
Hahaha, it was bound to come!
Da Fei ecstatically said, “Teacher, I need a Phantom Crossbow Cannon! I need Command Power! I need a powerful female Vice Hero!”
Makar coughed and waved his hand, “Young man… The Phantom Crossbow Cannon is no problem, come to me after 8 days, and I will assemble all the materials to make one in these 8 days, but you have to return it to me after use, this kind of weapon cannot remain in the current world. Command Power is also not a problem, take my letter and immediately report to the Navy Headquarters in the city, I appoint you as an Intern Naval Lieutenant, which will temporarily increase your Command Power by 100. Once the mission is finished, the internship period will end, but if your performance in this mission is good, I might consider promoting you to a regular officer. As for the rest, I am powerless.”
Hahaha! I nailed it! Though it’s temporary but aren’t bullets and bombs also temporary? Weapons only show their value when used, are they for breeding? But hey old man, you can handle the Crossbow Cannon and the officer position, a few beautiful Vice Heroes too tough for you? I need to dig into your potential!
Da Fei hurriedly said, “Teacher, my team needs a Nun Hero for healing, I want to select a Nun Hero from the Holy Mother Monastery outside the city to campaign with us!”
Makar glanced at Catherine beside Da Fei, then frowned, “There are many heroes capable of healing, young man, you should not indulge in women.”
Da Fei panicked, “Teacher misunderstood, my fear of being misunderstood for indulging in women is precisely why I specifically chose to employ a chaste Nun to clarify the air!”
Makar looked displeased, “You could hire male Priests!”
Damn! The old man is too tired to play nice! But I’ve come this far, I’ll not back down no matter what, clearly the old man needs me now and won’t turn hostile.

Da Fei urgently said, “Men aren’t great at healing and can’t provide meticulous care for sailors, especially mentally. Teacher, you’re a navigator, you understand, it’ll lower morale—”
Makar retorted, “Nonsense!”
Da Fei urgently added, “Teacher, mainly I fear employing a male priest might lead to misunderstandings about an unusual sexual orientation, which would shame you!”
Makar snapped, “What does that have to do with me?”
Da Fei sighed, “Could it be that even you can’t make arrangements with the Holy Mother Monastery?”
Makar let out a long sigh, “The monastery is a church institution, it owes no one any favors. I’m writing you a letter of introduction. When you join the Military Department, also visit Logistics Officer Lady Tabia. She’s from the church; ask her to take you to the monastery. If all else fails, have her recommend some military priests to accompany you.”
Da Fei nodded in understanding. Got it, the old man is afraid of being rejected and losing face too. Seems like this monastery is really something, huh? The stricter they are, the more I want to get in. The more they cover up, the more I want to strip it all back. Speaking of stripping, Da Fei suddenly thought of Nanny Rong, and shuddered.
With a wave of his hand, Makar completed a magic book letter, flicking it into Da Fei’s hands: “Off you go now.”
Da Fei hurriedly said, “Yes! I’ll go right away.”
As he was turning to leave, Da Fei suddenly remembered something, urgently saying: “Teacher!”
Makar’s beard twitched: “What now?”
Da Fei smirked, “Teacher, I haven’t changed my profession yet, do you have any powerful hidden professions to recommend to me—”
Makar clapped his hands: “Riel, see him out!”
The butler stepped forward promptly, “Sir, this way please!”
Da Fei hurriedly said, “Hey hey!”
With a flash of white light and a change of scene, Da Fei was back at the Saint Paul Office’s teleportation array. Damn it, old man, you don’t play fair! Too unkind, too lacking in integrity, right?
But, I’ve pretty much sorted this matter halfway already. With the Phantom Crossbow Cannon, who needs to walk straight fearing an epic quest? I’m using an NPC from one epic quest to solve another, a tactic of fighting poison with poison and using stones from other hills to polish my own gems. Why am I so awesome? Because I am awesome! Wahahaha!
As he stepped out the door, a few players whispered secretly outside: “He’s out!”
“His name has started turning white!”
Damn! I’m starting to enjoy the paparazzi treatment, huh? Alright, alright, keep following, I’ll blind your bosses with their in-app purchase money, haha, wahahahaha!

A golden bat descended from the sky, transforming into a middle-aged butler in a tailcoat as it landed: “Please give your orders, sir.”
Makar said solemnly, “Infiltrate the Elf Kingdom, spread rumors in the black market there claiming that the Elf Kingdom has dispatched a Super Hero to the Pool of Radiance, intending not just to cleanse the contamination but also to seize the opportunity to attack the Abyss Blood Pool. Also, leak the location of the Abyss Blood Pool; this news will surely reach both the Elves and the Demons.”
The butler asked in surprise, “Sir, why betray your own team?”
Makar shook his head and chuckled, “The demons are expanding their territory too aggressively in the New World, I want to divert their attention a bit. Moreover, I’d like to test my new student. He’s insatiably greedy; his ambition might just provoke the demons from all planes into action.”
“Understood.”
Makar then took out that Soul Crystal, nodded satisfactorily, and disappeared with a turn.
