Chapter 871: Chapter 484: Can Magicians Cultivate Fields in the Heavenly Ladder? _2

“It’s not that simple,” Anthony shook his head and said, “First, they don’t think we can manage the Sorcerer’s Ladder properly. It’s supposed to be a very complex Magician’s creation. Once it’s in our hands, it’s questionable whether we can even activate it.”

“Hehe, Durken! Durken!” Negris sneered with a smile, calling out for Durken.

The Sorcerer Alliance probably didn’t know they had a King of Alchemy on their side.

Durken rushed over, his hair a mess and his face smudged with black and gray, clearly the traces of a failed alchemy experiment: “What’s the matter? What do you need me for? I’m busy.”

Negris explained the situation with the Sorcerer’s Ladder, and Durken sneered, “Can’t open it? No way, this concerns my reputation. You must get it back for me to try, and if I can’t open it, I’ll twist my head off.”

Negris sneered, “You’re not confident either, otherwise why twist your head? You wouldn’t die if you twist off your head. If you dare, twist the Life Box.”

Durken nodded, “Fine, I’ll bet the Life Box, a battle for honor. Let’s do this!”

Negris felt a bit embarrassed; it was just a joke, no need to take it so seriously. What if the Life Box was damaged? Could he die?

“No, if it breaks, I’ll just make another one. In any case, you must get it back for me, let’s see if I can open it.” Durken said solemnly.

Alright, for someone who could craft their own Life Box, wasn’t it normal to just make another if it broke?

Helpless, Anthony gave a wry smile and continued, “Second, once we get the Sorcerer’s Ladder, it will be even harder to conceal. They’ll probably think that we won’t even be able to detect the hidden locator beacons inside it.”

Durken dismissively said, “That’s easy, I just need to trace the energy circuit. It’ll take a little time.”

Anthony nodded, “Third, what do we do with the Sorcerer’s Ladder once we have it?”

Negris and Durken exchanged glances. That was indeed a problem. Just hearing the name ‘Sorcerer’s Ladder’ made everyone excited; it was a super flying machine capable of reaching the Starburst Array, invaluable beyond measure.

But now, thinking calmly, what use was the Sorcerer’s Ladder? To fly to the Starburst Array?

Forget it; the Sorcerers’ Alliance would not let such a thing happen. Out in the open sky, undefended, plus the Ladder was made by the other party, it probably wasn’t high-quality. Flying up in it would be like asking for death, wouldn’t it?

Ange really saw things clearly, huh? If it couldn’t be used for farming, then what was it for? Is this Dead Skull genuinely dumb or just faking it?

“So what do we do? Just give up on the Sorcerer’s Ladder?” Negris asked in a quandary.

As Anthony said, getting the Ladder didn’t seem very useful and would just increase the risk of exposure. Without Durken, they might not even be able to operate it.

Moreover, doubts arose whether the opposition was offering such an item as a way to drag them down. Because maintaining a Sorcerer’s Ladder required a massive amount of resources and effort, not to mention money.

If the Church of Light went bankrupt trying to maintain the Ladder, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing.

But to simply give up and not want it? The Sorcerer’s Ladder, that’s like giving a penniless Black Night Raven a super large sea ship 300 meters long, equipped with three catapults and able to carry more than a thousand Flying Wings.

She would definitely throw herself at you, clinging to your legs, begging you to defile her in any position imaginable.

Anthony said with a wry smile, “If we don’t want it, several problems arise. First, we would be rejecting the Sorcerer Alliance’s apology, breaking off completely, and we should prepare for a full-scale war with the Sorcerer Alliance. Second, we refuse the Sorcerer’s Ladder but accept a different compensation; remove the Power of Fall from Lorca, and our relationship returns to normal.”

“But if we do that, the Sorcerer Alliance will surely become wary of us because if we can refuse the Sorcerer’s Ladder, we must have big plans or simply disdain it. If they think we look down upon it, as if we have other ways to reach the Starburst Array, they will definitely guard against us.”

“Third…”

Negris couldn’t take it anymore, interrupting, “Never mind the third option, can’t we just not take it? Then what do we do? Get it and smash it?”

Durken complained, “We could sell it to Gust, you know. Just talk it over, and I’ll go…”

Before he could finish, Anthony slapped his thigh, “Great idea, sell it to Gust. Genius, Lord Durken! Your idea is brilliant.”

“Eh, brilliant? It was just a flash of inspiration, just a flash of inspiration. I thought of it by chance. What’s so brilliant about it?” Durken modestly asked.

“The brilliance lies in the greater scope for negotiation. A Sorcerer’s Ladder that can fly to the Starburst Array to rescue His Majesty – what price would Gust be willing to pay? To prevent the Ladder from falling into Gust’s hands, what price would the Sorcerer Alliance be willing to pay? These are all negotiable aspects,” said Anthony.

Negris and Durken looked at each other, their hearts couldn’t help but mourn for those who had fallen prey to Anthony’s machinations.

“Selling it to Gust is not a bad idea. If we could use their help to rescue His Majesty, that would be a good thing,” Negris said.

Anthony, however, seemed to be struck by a new idea, pondering as he said, “Do you remember the Sorcerer’s Ladder that was overtaken during an ambush by the Council of the Undead? Only the main pillar was remaining. If Lord Durken gets his hands on a good Sorcerer’s Ladder, could he, using it as a reference, repair the one with only the main pillar left?”
