"Legislator Lole." In the light screen, Ron bowed respectfully, "Is there anything you need me to do?"
"Hmm." Lole nodded, "Ron, I need to exchange contribution points for some territories. Which ones on the Betula Continent still belong to the Wizard Alliance?"
He was unsure whether the kingdom where the beta tester appeared was currently under a legislator's control or still with the Wizard Alliance.
However, this was a minor issue. There were only a few beta testers, and when they appeared, he could directly 'bring' them to his territory.
By the time of the public test, the entire Betula Continent would be the landing point for players.
"Are you planning to establish a Wizard Tower on the Betula Continent?" Ron asked with a face full of surprise while operating the continent communication device, saying, "Please wait a moment, I will send you all the alliance territories right away."
Previously, he had a pessimistic attitude about Lole choosing the Betula Continent for the Wizard Tower, because the Betula Continent really had no advantages.
The wizard's development was mediocre, and there was no subsidy from the alliance when exchanging for territories.
It was neither bustling nor remote, just remarkably unremarkable.
Therefore, Lole's current choice was why Ron was so delighted.
"Ding—ding—ding—"
With Ron's operation, information on each territory was successively sent to Lole's continent communication device.
Lole looked through them one by one from top to bottom.
[Mad Lion Kingdom, spans 5,200 miles east to west, and 1,700 miles north to south, within it hills... rivers... population...]
[Requires 1.8 billion contribution points to exchange.]
[Bright Moon Duchy, spans 930 miles east to west, and 320 miles north to south, within it plains... rivers... population...]
[Requires 300 million contribution points to exchange.]
[Day Cry Empire, spans 18,000 miles east to west, and 12,000 miles north to south, within it forests...]
[Requires 7.6 billion contribution points to exchange.]
These territories, due to differences in population, terrain, and resources, were priced differently.
But they all had one thing in common, and that was they were expensive!
This was also normal, after all, having sufficient territories could support more ordinary people to thrive, give birth to more individuals with meditation talent, and create more witchcraft positions.
It was understandable for the alliance to set a higher price.
"Legislator Lole, these are the materials before the demon war."
Moments later, Ron sent all the alliance territory information and reminded Lole, who was reading the materials, "If you need detailed information after the demon war, I can arrange personnel to investigate, which may take about ten days."
"There's no need." Lole shook his head, "However, once I've decided on the territory, I need you to send people to help clean up the territory and try to restore it to its pre-war state. Is that okay?"
Now, the entire Betula Continent was filled with demon corpses, and the terrain of mountains, rivers, forests, etc., was so polluted and destroyed that it was unrecognizable.
It would be too troublesome to have Kateya issue tasks and slowly wait for all the Elemental Mages to come and clean up.
Anyway, the demons within the Betula Continent were basically cleared out, and outside, there was a single Elemental Legion guarding.
Without the need for the single Elemental Legion to resist the attacks of fourth-level demons, it would be easy to clean up the scattered low-level demons entering the Betula Continent.
The remaining Multi-Element Mages and Bloodline Wizards were idle anyway, so Ron could gather them to work, starting from his territory to restore the entire Betula Continent's terrain and appearance to its original state.
"Of course, no problem." Ron immediately nodded in agreement.
What Lole proposed was exactly what Ron had always wanted to do.
Previously, right after the war, if he had made this proposal, it might have attracted a lot of dissatisfaction,
but now that the proposer was no longer he himself but Lole, it would be much easier.
"That's fine." Lole smiled and continued to look through various territories' information.
When he saw the name Agate Kingdom, his eyes suddenly brightened.
Since this kingdom was still an alliance territory, it would be even more convenient for him to operate.
Without rushing to talk to Ron, he continued searching in the message list and eventually designated five kingdoms centered on the Agate Kingdom and twelve duchies as territories.
These territories combined required a total of 15.2 billion contribution points.
He currently had 16.45 billion contribution points, which was more than enough.
"Ron, I want the Agate Kingdom, Cross Kingdom, Silver Pine Kingdom, Skyrim Kingdom, Red Stone Kingdom, as well as the Golden Snake Duchy... and other countries as territories," Lole reported one by one the countries he had selected.
On the opposite side of the light screen, Ron was synchronously taking notes, and soon after he finished, he looked up and asked, "Legislator Lole, you have 1.25 billion contribution points left, would you like to exchange them for Magic Crystal Ore or...?"
Contribution points were a special currency in wartime.
They could be used to exchange for Magic Crystal Ore and territories, both strategic resources, or exchange for contribution points. Keeping them was not very meaningful.
Therefore, Ron asked this additional question.
"Pick a few medium-sized Magic Crystal Mines for me, and deal directly with Kateya," Lole replied.
1.25 billion contribution points could be exchanged for large Magic Crystal Mines with 125 mother ores, but now there were no suitable large Magic Crystal Mines left on the Betula Continent.
As such, he could only have Ron select a few medium-sized Magic Crystal Mines to make up the numbers.
"Yes, Legislator Lole." Ron nodded.
"Alright, you can get busy," Lole ended the communication, not immediately proceeding with cultivation.
Even though his time was very tight, there were still some things that had to be arranged, such as involving Levan.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
Lole stood up, stepped out of his residence, and knocked on the door of Levan's residence.
"Mentor, what brings you here?" Levan opened the door and was extremely surprised to see that the person knocking was Lole.
It's not surprising he was so taken aback; ever since Lole became a Third Ring, due to various pressures, he dared not stop even for a moment.
This led to few opportunities for the mentor and student to meet aside from a few banquets, let alone have private conversations.
"What, can't I come to see you when there's nothing else?" Lole asked with a smile.
"Yes, of course, you can." Levan immediately stepped aside and gestured with his right hand toward the residence, saying, "Please come in, Mentor."
"Hmm." Lole nodded, stepping into the hall, heading to one side of the long table.
Levan followed behind, matching his pace, watching the back of his mentor as he walked forward, a tinge of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
When was the last time he walked behind his mentor like this?
Presumably, it was during the apprentice period when no one had learned the flying technique yet, right?
At that time, he and his mentor exited the Divine Kingdom together, walking downwards toward the Wizard Tower.
He didn't understand some things that happened during that time.
Now, looking back, everything is clear.
Levan thought of how back then, he watched his mentor perfunctorily deal with a crowd of one-ring wizards and apprentices, and even had the thought of following suit, his lips unintentionally curled into a smile.
"What are you grinning about?" Lole, sitting in a chair, turned back to see Levan still stupidly smiling behind him. He patted the chair beside him and said, "Come, sit down first, Mentor has some things to ask you."
Today, he needed to ask Levan about his future path and make corresponding arrangements.
This was the responsibility of a mentor.
The reason for asking at this time was that the timing was truly very appropriate.
Whether Levan wanted to become a Legion Commander, manage a territory, or focus on research, Lole could provide assistance.
