Infinite Bloodcore-Chapter 541: Section 328: Ice Eagle Makes Amends

The Dragon-man youth took the windshield and observed it for a moment, then put it on his face to find it fit perfectly, as if it had been tailored for him.

Bu Quan was also satisfied with this outcome, she pinched her own glasses frame with her thumb and index finger, lifting them slightly, "My judgment is always very precise."

Next, she took out the second alchemy tool.

It was a small pouch.

The pouch was a translucent blue.

From the outside, you could see it was filled with cubic ice cubes.

"This is the Cold Heart Ice Pouch," Bu Quan introduced. "Its specific effect is to absorb incoming Ice Element Fighting energy, automatically converting it into a defensive power. This power can temporarily increase spiritual value and clear the mind, thus providing protection against spirit-related impacts."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon-man youth’s first thought was — this alchemy tool is targeted at Teng Donglang.

Because Teng Donglang’s Fighting energy and Combat Skills are all of the Ice Element.

This piece of equipment was especially suitable for the Dragon-man youth.

The Dragon-man youth could even choose not to dodge in combat, allowing Teng Donglang to hit him so as to absorb the incoming Ice Element Fighting energy and help increase his spiritual value.

"No, to be more precise, Bu Quan had envisioned such a combat scenario..."

"After suffering a spirit shock, I’m temporarily unable to resist and suffer Teng Donglang’s frenzied attacks."

"The Cold Heart Ice Pouch comes into play, absorbing Teng Donglang’s Ice Element Fighting energy, on one hand, reducing the enemy’s offensive and on the other hand alleviating my healing pressure, but most importantly, it also increases my spiritual value. It helps me regain a clear mind and restore my fighting power."

The Dragon-man youth had suffered enough from inadequate spirit defense. Therefore, any tool or treasure that could help with spirit defense was seen as more the merrier to him.

The third item Bu Quan took out was a Magic Scroll.

This Magic Scroll emitted a Golden Level aura.

After Bu Quan introduced it, the Dragon-man youth was secretly astonished.

Because the content recorded on this Magic Scroll was none other than the spell — Molten Lava Hell!

Spells are divided into tactical level, battlefield level, and strategic level.

Molten Lava Hell was a battlefield level Spell, surpassing the tactical level.

Once used, it could transform the surrounding area into a hellish landscape with Dragon Scales continuously erupting.

The Dragon-man youth was puzzled, "Battlefield level Spells are difficult to come by in the market because their destructiveness is quite substantial. Many Kingdoms have explicitly forbidden the trade of such Spells and have strict regulations."

"Would it really be okay for me to use such a spell in the dueling field? Wouldn’t it violate your country’s laws?"

"As far as I know, the Ice Sculpture Kingdom seems to have strict regulations and prohibitions on this kind of spell."

Bu Quan shook her head with a smile and explained, "Don’t worry about that, Long Fu squad leader."

"Although it is a Molten Lava Hell spell, it has been deliberately reduced."

"The range of the spell has been greatly reduced, only a fraction of its original size."

"There’s no problem using this Magic Scroll in the brave duel process."

"I believe: when the entire Snowbird Duel Arena becomes a Molten Lava Hell, it will certainly weaken Teng Donglang greatly."

"Moreover, the scorching battlefield environment must also be more suitable for you, Long Fu squad leader."

The Dragon-man youth nodded, readily acknowledging this point.

He carried the Bloodline of the King of Flame Dragon, a secret that couldn’t be revealed from his appearance.

But from the Dragon-man youth’s Red Dragon Scales, burly physique, amber Dragon pupils, and other features, one could infer that his Bloodline tended towards the Fire Element.

After presenting the Dragon-man youth with three treasures, Bu Quan spoke a few more words, then bid farewell and left.

Her prompt and decisive behavior only increased the Dragon-man youth’s favorable impression of her.

The Dragon-man youth accompanied her all the way to the dock.

At their parting, Bu Quan wished that the Dragon-man youth would inflict heavy damage on Teng Donglang.

The Dragon-man youth, in turn, expressed that he would remember Bu Quan’s assistance profoundly and looked forward to deeper collaboration between them in the future.

After the Dragon-man youth returned to the ship, he still looked out towards the carriage Bu Quan left in.

"Rather than these three treasures, I would prefer to have you, Bu Quan," the Dragon-man youth sighed inwardly.

He didn’t reveal this intention.

Because he understood: this was not the appropriate time to recruit Bu Quan.

Such progress was already excellent.

Having a common enemy provided a very good interpersonal start for two strangers meeting for the first time.

Not long after Bu Quan left, another visitor arrived at the dock.

"Ice Eagle?" The Dragon-man youth, upon hearing the subordinate’s report, found it somewhat hard to believe for a moment.

Ice Eagle was the former Gang Leader of the Saber Gang.

Why would he come in such circumstances?

This was completely beyond the Dragon-man youth’s expectations.

"Do you want to meet him, squad leader? Or should we just kick him out?" the subordinate asked.

The Dragon-man youth quickly thought it over, then said, "Let him wait outside for now."

The Dragon-man youth turned and went down into the cabin to meet with the City Lord of Snowbird Port again.

He briefly mentioned the three items sent by Bu Quan to the Snowbird Port City Lord and then focused on the Ice Owl.

The Snowbird Port City Lord was secretly pleased with the Dragon-man youth’s actions.

The Dragon-man youth could have met with Ice Owl first and then told him the results.

But he did not do so.

Instead, before taking any action, he specifically came down to communicate with the Snowbird Port City Lord and ask for opinions.

The Snowbird Port City Lord knew that the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps squad leader was a very opinionated person and the main purpose of this was to express his sincerity in cooperation to him!

The Snowbird Port City Lord then said, "I’m very familiar with the character of Ice Owl and Teng Donglang."

"He must have discussed with Teng Donglang before coming this time."

"The main purpose is to show goodwill, act weak, lull you, and make every effort to dissolve your fighting spirit in order to buy time for themselves."

The Dragon-man youth shook his head, his gaze firm, "No matter what price they pay, I have already formed an alliance with you, City Lord, and I will not waver."

But the Snowbird Port City Lord shook his head, "No, my idea is, Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps squad leader, please try to feign ignorance and deceive them."

"Without signing any contracts with Ice Owl, try to ease the situation and lull them."

"By doing this, my later actions will have a higher success rate!"

"I understand," the Dragon-man youth agreed, his brow furrowed.

Because for him, this was a difficult challenge.

He found it hard to grasp the measure of it.

After temporarily leaving the Snowbird Port City Lord, the Dragon-man youth returned to the Captain’s quarters.

There, he welcomed Ice Owl.

Upon seeing the Dragon-man youth, Ice Owl first bowed deeply and said with sincere tone, "Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps squad leader, thank you for not bearing grudges and giving me this opportunity to meet with you."

"I am here to apologize."

"As for the conflict over the Giant Intelligence Potion, I was arrogant, overly proud, and failed to recognize your strength."

"Ah!" Ice Owl sighed deeply, full of regret, "If I had known that the small conflict would escalate to this point today, I would have never acted that way."

"Giving up a share of the Giant Intelligence Potion, but in exchange, gaining a friend like you, Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps squad leader, would truly have been a gain."

"I was blind!"

The Dragon-man youth heard his apology and felt not the slightest pleasure in his heart, but rather a strong chill.

Ice Owl’s attitude was certainly not an honest apology but to lull the Dragon-man youth.

He, the newly appointed Gang Leader, did such a thing without regard for his own face.

Being so flexible, he was indeed a character.

"The lower he stoops today, the stronger the retaliation he will enforce upon me if he gets the chance in the future."

"This man is quite dangerous!"

The Dragon-man youth was enlightened, his voice low and full of emotion, "Lord Ice Owl, I too never thought it would come to this point."

"I admit that the conflict with you was the natural outcome of my course of action."

"After knowing your identity, I regretted it."

"But there was no helping it, my side had no choice but to continue with the mistake. Although I initiated the brave duel, my original plan was to make a strong impression on Teng Donglang, to demonstrate strength and promote peace through combat."

"What I never expected was that the Saber Gang would be so domineering. After my victory over Xiong Ju, not only did they mobilize their connections to trouble us everywhere, but they also dispatched Golden Level assassins to steal and attempt to murder, causing us heavy losses..."

Ice Owl raised his hand, hastily saying, "Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps squad leader, please forgive my interruption. We definitely did not dispatch any assassins to infiltrate and murder."

"The Golden Level fighter killed by the Snowbird Port City Lord was not one of our people."

"This misunderstanding is too great!"

"The main purpose of my visit is to clarify this matter!"

The Dragon-man youth’s expression darkened as he coldly huffed, "If the deed is done, you should face it."

"No, no, no, we never did such a thing," Ice Owl denied, waving his hands repeatedly.

The Dragon-man youth sneered, "I understand. Your explanations are not for me; they’re for the public of Snowbird Port."

"If I were you, I would never admit to being the mastermind behind a failed assassination, either."

Ice Owl sighed deeply, "Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps squad leader, you have too great a prejudice against our gang."

"All this time, our gang has never had the thought of assassinating your members, let alone acted on it."

"My second purpose for this visit is to seek reconciliation with your corps."

"This list of compensation is our sincerity, please take a look, squad leader."

Saying this, Ice Owl handed a piece of paper to the Dragon-man youth.

The Dragon-man youth took it and his breath hitched slightly.

To lull the Dragon-man youth, the Saber Gang had come up with a compensation list worth a fortune!

Just the Golden Level equipment alone on this list came to a total of eight pieces.

In addition, some excellent fixed assets such as shops on prime real estate were being offered to the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps without compensation.

Even among these fixed assets were two Alchemy Workshops!
