——In the follow-up and transitional chapters, I won't write a full 3,000 words, and the extra 800 words will be given to everyone.

"Ice Crack Sword", a level 4 medium enchanted longsword, improves balance, adds ice and acid damage, just to buy this weapon, Jacob spent nearly 10,000 Kintalega original level 3 magic longsword, but in his last battle, he didn't even have a chance to pull out this long sword!
Picking up the long sword from Jacob's waist, Lucian shook his head and looked at the straight blade body that emitted a mixture of blue and green, and then put it in the storage bag along with the demon soul armor, the "punishment" ring that released lightning three times a day, and the gold coins and gems worth forty gold tales.
Jacob didn't know how many nobles and merchants he had secretly robbed and killed, and how many smuggling businesses he had done to save enough of these equipment, but now it was simply cheaper for Lucian, but Lucian was not ready to use them, because there were likely nobles in the Shahran Empire who knew Jacob's personal belongings, which would bring a lot of trouble, so he decided to hand them over to Leo and let him exchange these pieces of equipment for gold coins along with the low-end items on Warren's body, and then secretly buy useful magic long swords.
As for the unicorn necklace that is immune to charm, suggestion and other magic, and is not easy to be seen by others, Lucian wears the Crown of the Sun talisman, and the two will conflict together, so he is temporarily prepared to let Leo wear it, so as not to be controlled when he buys and sells items and arranges matters within the Shahran Empire.
After collecting the wealth, Lucian became in a comfortable mood and put the crystal ball in his right hand back into his coat pocket - many magic in the astrological system Even if a spell model is built in the soul, but due to the ethereal fate of fate, it still needs to be cast with the help of the casting material of the morning light crystal ball, such as the "Star of Maskelin" is the most typical example, and other factions also have similar special situations.
With a flash of magic fluctuations, Lucian's body quickly disappeared and quietly left Warren's villa manor.
…………
Inside the basement of an ordinary resident's house, one of Leo's secret hideouts.
"Mr. Peter, the news of Jacob's murder has caused a stir in the city, causing chaos. Many lords are said to have quarreled with the lords' council over the division of his manor, land, gem veins, smuggling warehouses and channels, and even a nearby reclusive ancient inheritance magician has arrived, hoping to share this coveted wealth by joining the Eastern Exile Lords' Council." Even in a place where there were no outsiders, Leo seriously called Lucian's current pseudonym.
Lucian was slightly surprised: "Does Jacob have so much property? But why do he have so few magic items on him?"
Leo replied meticulously like a real butler: "Because of the income outside the manor, he has to dedicate most of it to the nine city lords, and the tempering and improvement of his own bloodline also needs the assistance of materials such as moonstone and werewolf blood, plus maintaining a luxurious life, the money he can use to buy magic items accounts for less than one-tenth of his total income."
"Moreover, the higher the level, the rarer the magic items, and high-level items have only appeared a few times in the Eastern Exile, and they have all been obtained by the nine city lords. After Jacob became a level four ten years ago, it took him several years to gather a level four long sword, armor, and a mid-level magic ring for long-range attacks that he was satisfied with."
Lucian nodded slightly, this is one of the benefits of joining the Magic Council and Elemental Will, there will be no such thing as having enough wealth and not being able to buy magic equipment suitable for oneself, whether it is the exchange area of the Magic Council or the half-plane warehouse of the Elemental Will, it can make people dazzle.
"How did the nine city lords react?" What Lucian wanted to know most was information about this.
Leo, who was dressed as an old man, shook his head: "Mr. Peter, outsiders don't know about the lord's meeting at the moment, but the owner of the Taran Tavern secretly told me that the lord's men only came to inquire about Warren's conflict with people in the tavern once, and there has been no similar investigation since then, and there have been no wanted notices, hunts, etc. Several lords who competed for Jacob's inheritance claimed that Jacob and Warren had offended the big people of the Magic Council and were easily killed, so their competition for the inheritance was completely in line with the rules of the Eastern Exile."
"Anyway, we will wait a few more days to make sure that no one has tracked down and issued a mission before entering the Shahran Empire." Lucian nodded slightly, "During this time, I will ask Leo to secretly sell those magic items, and then buy a level 4 or 5 magic longsword."
"Mr. Peter, if you let go in a hurry, you will lose at least 20%, and level four or five magic longswords are not common, if you want to buy them in a short time, then it is basically impossible to suit your characteristics and will not satisfy you." Leo asked the question without hiding it.
Lucian pushed the monocle and smiled: "It doesn't matter, anyway, this magic longsword is only temporarily used, the only requirement is that there are no requirements for the use of strength, agility, will, etc."
Considering that when traveling through the Shahran Empire, magic can be used as little as possible, so a powerful magic longsword that can effectively improve one's knight's strength is particularly important.
"Do as you wish." After receiving Lucian's confirmation, Leo didn't say anything more and bowed politely and left.
…………
A few days later, in the evening, Leo returned with a scabbard inlaid with rubies, a longsword as "flashy" as the vigilant longsword.
"Mr. Peter, the magic longsword you want is a fourth-level high-level and worth twenty-three thousand gold thals. Only a small part of the gold and gems obtained from selling the ice crack sword, demon soul armor and punishment ring remain, worth about one hundred and sixty gold thalers." Leo handed Lucian the long sword wrapped in a scabbard, and also took out images of the buying and selling process and other evidence to show that he had not profited from it.
Lucian pulled out his long sword, the flickering metallic luster had a dark blue cold taste, the shape was completely different from the scabbard, simple and generous, but the gauntlets were extremely elaborate, covered with intricate patterns, like cold and bright silver and white flowers blooming in layers of frost.
According to Natasha's method, Lucian left his breath on the longsword very easily and got a passage left by the dwarf craftsman when he cast it.
"Frost, a fourth-level high-level magic longsword, forged with special green condensation ice deep in the Northland, those hit by it will take cold attack damage and become sluggish."
"No one doesn't like the enemy getting slower and slower when fighting themselves! ——Adulan Copper Hammer."
The greatest value of this long sword is the slow effect, the rest is not outstanding, and for Jacob, because it has a dark weakening aura, this long sword seems meaningless, it is better to choose the ice crack sword with more balance and strong acid corrosion damage.
Lucian swung it a few times, feeling the effect of an ordinary level four knight attack, then took back the long sword and wore it on the left and right sides with "Vigilance" respectively.
Regarding the evidence submitted by Leo, Lucian didn't even look at it and destroyed it directly: "I believe in your character, Leo, and as a magician, I can also evaluate the value of this long sword. There are no other changes outside, right?"
Leo's trust in Lucian was slightly excited: "Mr. Peter, the news obtained from Mr. Valenkin, the owner of the Taran Tavern and other sources confirms that at the lords' meeting, the nine city lords have acquiesced to the lords to obtain their respective Jacob's inheritances, and said that they have communicated with the Magic Council.
"The nine city lords of the Eastern Exile Land really have a certain amount of communication and connection with the Magic Council." Lucian thoughtfully said that after all, if they wanted to keep the Eastern Exile neutral and profit from it, even if they were not biased towards the Magic Council, and even often used the balance of power of the Shahran Empire, there would be no shortage opportunities to deal with them secretly.
Thinking of this, Lucian stood up: "Leo, there is no moon tonight, we are just leaving."
…………
In the darkness of night, the majestic Flame Fortress is like a dragon entrenched in the mountain pass, completely blocking the road to the future, and the rest of the place is a black taiga forest with various fierce monsters and steep and difficult to climb ice and snow cliffs.
But he couldn't see his five fingers in mid-air, but Lucian flew quietly with Leo, as if blending into the night.
According to the intelligence prompts, after bypassing several guard magic circles and magic airship patrol routes arranged with the help of clouds, Lucian easily crossed the fortress and flew all the way to the vicinity of the Shahran Empire town in the distance before landing.
The sky is so vast, and there are high and low, it can't be blocked without special magic and divine magic!
