Chapter 848 Weilin is deceived

After seeing Baird off, Weilin stayed in the study reading books.

After ten o'clock, Weilin left the study and walked slowly towards the outer fort of Star-Moon Castle.

When he arrived at the manor where his uncle's family lived, Weilin was almost unable to recognize it because of the great changes.

Maybe because I haven't disturbed him over the years, my uncle has more private time.

However, Weilin then put the idea behind him.

Entering the manor, looking at the tree-lined avenue and the magic puppets cleaning the manor, their movements were as slow as those of an old man in his twilight years.

After walking for more than a hundred meters, they came to a lake, and Weilin spotted Odor meditating in the middle of the lake.

Without saying anything to interrupt, Weilin went straight to the pavilion nearby, sat down, and waited patiently.

It’s a good time to take advantage of this time to appreciate the surrounding scenery.

Soon, a young man came to the pavilion with a set of tea sets and a wooden box of tea leaves. After placing the things on the stone table, he bowed and said, "Lord Weilin, good afternoon."

Looking up, Weilin smiled and said, "Theo, long time no see."

"Lord Weilin, the teacher won't wake up for another half an hour. Would you like to take a walk around the manor or continue waiting here?" Theo reminded with a smile.

"Since my uncle won't wake up for another half an hour, let's use this time to play a game of chess."

In response to Weilin's invitation, Theo nodded and agreed.

After two games of chess, when the third game was halfway through, Odor woke up from his meditation, cast his eyes towards the pavilion, and looking at Weilin's figure, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

"This kid showed up so quickly."

The promise was unavoidable, but as long as Weilin didn't bring it up, he would pretend that he had forgotten it.

Coming to the pavilion and looking at the chess skills of this rookie, I couldn't help but shake my head. After all these years, there has been no improvement at all. This will definitely be how his life will be.

Ten minutes later, Weilin won the game with two wins.

Seeing this, Theo smiled apologetically, then got up from the stone bench, walked to the left, and started making tea.

Weilin waved his hand to put away the chessboard, and said to Odor affectionately: "Uncle, long time no see."

"It's been ten years, and you've become a lot stronger." Odor sat opposite Weilin, looked his nephew up and down, and said with emotion.

"Hehe, just some luck."

Weilin said modestly, but his raised eyebrows showed that his heart was not as calm as water.

The two communicated slowly, but neither of them mentioned the promise made many years ago.

As time went by, Weilin finally understood that if he didn't take the initiative to mention the construction of the airship, his uncle would treat the promise as non-existent.

But if I bring it up first, then the initiative will be in my uncle's hands.

Time passed by bit by bit, and Weilin felt a little helpless. He realized that he couldn't beat his uncle, an old fox who had been practicing Tai Chi for who knows how many years.

Seeing the tea in the cup, Weilin took a sip and went straight to the point, saying, "Uncle, I got a war puppet monster, but it lacks an energy core. I would like you to repair it."

Hearing Weilin's words, the smile on Odor's face did not change at all, and he said lightly: "Okay."

"If you would like to..."

Weilin stopped talking suddenly in the middle of his words.

"What do I want?"

"Uncle, if you are willing to repair the energy core of the war puppet beast, I can let you study it for a few years, but the prerequisite is that you cannot disassemble it." Weilin rolled his eyes and spoke.

"Okay, I agree, but I can't give a specific time for when it will be repaired."

"It's natural."

Weilin agreed without even thinking about it.

After a few pleasantries, Weilin said goodbye and left the manor.

After Weilin left, Theo looked puzzled and couldn't help asking, "Teacher, aren't you unwilling to be busy with trivial matters? Why did you agree to repair the war puppet monster with Master Weilin?"

"It's a complicated matter, but it can be used as an excuse. You will understand it later."

Odor smiled and waved Theo to go to the laboratory to prepare things.

After walking out of the manor, Weilin suddenly stopped, looked at the big tree beside him, and muttered to himself: "I've been fooled."

If my uncle has the final say on when the repair will be completed, then the construction of the airship will not start until some time.

Now that I have agreed to it, I can't deny it.

I should have asked Kyle to accompany me earlier, otherwise I wouldn’t have met my uncle.

However, he still has his aunt as a card, so if all else fails, he can only take a risky move.

……

In the Messier demiplane, Kyle stood on top of a mountain of treasures, directing his light and shadow clones to sort the huge amount of supplies into different categories.

The more valuable ones are placed on the left and written on the list of items to be stored in the underground treasure house.

Those with slightly lower value are placed in the middle and stored in the warehouse of Xingyue Castle.

As for the pile of things on the right, most of them are weapons and armor, various minerals containing small amounts of magic power, magic potions and plants suitable for low-level professionals to practice, metals such as gold, silver and copper, as well as some exquisite cloth and clothing, etc.

These things were once precious treasures for Qixing Territory, but now, although they are valuable, they are no longer so scarce, and are not worthy of being directly supervised by their masters. It is more appropriate to put them in Qixing Territory’s warehouse.

Kyle landed on the grass, looking at the pile of books that recorded the extraordinary knowledge of the Metagea plane, and pondered the valuation of these things.

If the value is estimated based on the books in the main world, then it is not worth it.

If it is converted into half of its value, it would be somewhat disrespectful to these books.

After thinking for a moment, Kyle decided to adopt a split valuation method. Books that record supernatural knowledge of six seals or less will be valued at half of their value, and books that record supernatural knowledge of seven seals or above will be valued at two-thirds of the price of supernatural books of the corresponding level in the main world.

In this way, the value of this pile of extraordinary books is about 430 million gold coins.

After writing down the corresponding records, Kyle waved his hand to move the pile of books to the left, ready to put them into the underground treasure house. He then set his eyes on a pile of travelogues and biography books, paused for a few seconds, and finally left these "useless" books in Star-Moon Castle.

There is no other reason, just because my master likes to watch it.

On the other side, Weilin came to Kyle's office, and after finding no one there, he returned to his study to wait for the result.

It goes without saying that Kyle must be busy in the Messier demiplane, so it is better not to disturb him. It is important to take advantage of this time to rest.
