Chapter 825 Did… Did You Just… Use Charm On Him?
"Heeh, this is not bad at all."
Nux commented as he looked around.
"Of course, it is one of the best Bases we have, it has one main Hall where your Clan Members can have their meetings and discuss the matters related to the Clan.
Three other Halls can be used for other purposes, most of the Clans use them as Cultivation Hall, Spells Hall, and Discipline Hall.
There is also a Training Area where the members of your clan can practice their Spells and Spar with each other to get stronger.
Living Quarters has 50 rooms and can have up to 200 members.
And of course, there are some extra small buildings for future use.
Normally, only a middle-level clan with a history of around 400-500 years buys these types of bases, however,
I believe this place should belong to the new Clan that will exceed all the expectations and reach the top,
ExceedoGenesis."
The seller of the base spoke with a big smile on his face.
Nux glanced at this man, he was fat, his skin was oily, and his features weren't exactly sharp, in terms of looks, he was below average, however, when it came to selling, he was definitely an expert.
He knew what to say in order to sell his stuff and get what he wants.
He wasn't exactly strong, he was only a King Stage Cultivator, however, even then, from the way he was talking to them, it was clear that he was used to dealing with Emperors and Sages.
"I like this place," Nux commented.
Astaria recommended this place, so he already knew it would be great. It was spacious, the entire land was 300 acres wide, the three main halls looked imposing, and the rest of the buildings matched well with each other.
Not to mention there were around 800 acres of free land around this Base, a land Nux was planning to buy once his Clan expands.
Of course, there were a few minor problems like the 3 new clans who have bought those lands, but Nux decided to think about it later. It was nothing a polite little talking couldn't solve.
Seeing that Nux was interested, the seller's expression brightened up and he continued,
"Of course!
As I said, this place suits your clan the most,
Not only is it a level above normal buildings, but the Protective Formation of this Building is also strong enough to resist a Great Sage.
The Training Area also has a Rebuilding Formation, so any amount of damage you may do while casting your techniques will be restored automatically.
It is an absolute must-have!"
The Seller explained and hearing his words, Nux frowned in confusion.
"Formations?"
"In simpler words, it is a Magic Circle that uses the Mana from the surroundings to work automatically whenever it is triggered. It is basically used for defensive purposes, however, it also has many other uses.
The Rebuilding Formation he talked about, then there is the Recording Formation that records everything, it is mostly used to analyze Battles. The Teleportation Spell back in my continent was also a Formation.
There are also some attack Formations that allow weak cultivators to fight against the strong ones, but since they are mostly one-time use Formations and are quite expensive, not many people use them."
Melia explained.
"A Magic Circle that uses surrounding Mana to activate automatically huh…
How do you create these Formations?" 𝚋𝚎𝚍n𝚘v𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝
Nux questioned with a curious look on his face.
"We cannot create these Formations, Nux."
Melia, however, shook her head.
A quick look at 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝘵 will leave you more fulfilled.
"Why not?"
"Only the Dwarves have the ability to create them.
Many have tried copying them, however, the Mana circles we create disappear after we stop feeding them Mana, the dwarves however, have the racial trait that prevents that from happening. Their Magic Spells just go into an inactive State after they stop supplying Mana and once they are triggered, they start working again."
"So only Dwarves can create the Formations huh…" Nux muttered.
"Indeed, that is the reason they are called a special race. They aren't exactly strong, however, their Formation, their unusually strong Weapons, and all their other innovations allow them to have complete control over the Economy of Yrniel.
Even the Eons, the currency we all use, all of that comes from the Land of Dwarves.
There are Eon Orbs all over Yrniel, however, only the Eon processed by the Dwarven Land can be used as a form of currency, the rest of Eon is completely useless."
"Complete control over the Economy…"
"Well, at least the economy of the Cultivation World is managed by the Dwarves, the Mortal world economy is managed by the Humans since they are the highest in number.
Of course, the mortal world doesn't really matter, the real economy is still in the hands of the Dwarves, this is the reason that even though they can be called the weakest race, no race wants them as an enemy."
"The power of money sure is strong…"
Nux commented.
"Well, it is not exactly the power of money, it is the power of creation. They are just using Money to show how much they dominate everything, money is just a way for them to show off."
Melia corrected.
Nux nodded in understanding.
"Anyways, we do not have to worry about all that right now. We have plenty of money, let's just proceed and buy the base. There are other things we need to do after this."
Melia spoke, and Nux nodded, he then turned towards the seller and questioned,
"What's the price of this Base?"
"It is not very expensive, my Lord, only 4,500,000 Eons."
"4.5 million huh…"
Nux mumbled.
Melia, on the other hand, looked into the Seller's eyes, her crimson eyes then shined and she questioned,
[What is the actual price of this Base?]
Suddenly, the Seller's eyes turned hazy, and in a lifeless tone, he replied,
"4,350,000 Eons."
"Hmm. He is only earning 150,000 Eons out of this. I believe it is a fair deal."
Melia turned towards Nux and spoke.
Nux glanced at Melia, then he turned towards the seller…
"Did… did you just… use Charm on him?"
"Should I not have…?" Melia tilted her head in confusion.
"He is wearing a protective necklace though…"
"Ah, that? Something like that wouldn't work against my [Charm]. Did you forget who my mother is?
I have learned a thing or two."
Melia shrugged as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
