Chapter 1056: 1056
King Elbas' eyes sharpened, but he couldn't remain in silence for long . His mouth opened, and a question came out of it . "What did you even find?"
"I want everything you have on the darkness element . " Noah promptly answered . "I'm not talking only about spells and martial arts . I want every technique, research, and blueprint that cultivators with a darkness aptitude can use . "
The Elbas family stood at the peak of the inscription field, and its studies covered every aspect of the cultivation journey . Noah couldn't even begin to imagine how many discoveries and mysterious techniques the Royals had created under King Elbas' rule . Yet, he had every intention to find that out .
Silence fell in the room, and the crackling fireplace accompanied the two powerhouses once again . The duo filled and emptied cups as the minutes passed, but their eyes never left their adversary .
Eventually, King Elbas took out a scale that had two golden plates on its sides . An eerie aura surrounded the inscribed item, and Noah could sense that its power was in the middle tier of the sixth rank even if it didn't have offensive properties .
King Elbas pressed two fingers on his forehead, and an azure lump of mental energy came out of his mind when he pulled his hand . He then dropped those thoughts on the plate near him, and the scale tilted in his direction .
"This is the value of what you've asked," King Elbas said as he pointed at the empty golden plate . "It won't record anything unless you want to . "
Noah felt intrigued when looking at the scale . King Elbas had created something on that level with the sole purpose of making his negotiations fair .
Most powerhouses won't ever think of spending time and resources creating something like that, but King Elbas was atypical . He appeared to have a rank 6 item ready for every occasion .
Noah looked at the scale for a while, but he imitated King Elbas' actions before he started to have some doubts about the truthfulness of his guest's claims . The image of the Ape God appeared in his mind before Noah pulled that thought and placed it on the empty plate .
His thoughts weren't azure like King Elbas' . His shining lump of mental energy was brown, and it tilted the scale toward him when it landed on the golden plate .
King Elbas' eyes widened when he heard the plate landing on the wooden table . He knew exactly how valuable the resources requested by Noah were, so the reaction of the scale left him speechless .
All the accumulated techniques, studies, and resources connected to the darkness element could rival any quasi-divine item in value . Yet, the scale declared Noah's offer was far superior to that .
The only possible conclusion was that Noah was willing to trade a proper divine resource!
Noah analyzed the oath with his mental energy . It was a standard item used during negotiations of that kind, which would activate once both parties agreed to the deal .
Brown runes formed on the empty side of the tablet as Noah swore the oath . The negotiation had officially begun at that point . It was only a matter of deciding the terms .
"I have a general idea of the location of your travel," King Elbas said in an attempt to lower the value of Noah's offer . "Whatever it is, I can find it on my own . "
"You can't," Noah replied, "I've destroyed the entire place . You need me if you want to get your hands on it . "
"It?" King Elbas asked . He had already understood that the matter involved resources in the divine rank, but he needed to hear their nature from his guest's mouth .
