The Flying docked, dropping off the observer.
Anlicia patted Catherine on the shoulder and laughed, "Miss Catherine, have you ever gone shopping in Farolan?"
Catherine shook her head, "No."
Anlicia hooked her arm excitedly, "Letās go, Iāll take you shopping, and you can help me pick out an outfit as cool as yours."
Catherine shook her head, "I need to read, let Selvia accompany you."
Anlicia tilted her head, snorting, "What does the Little Nun know?"
Selvia frowned, "Even if you begged me, I wouldnāt go with you!" She turned and went to the cabin to find Deirdre for some fun.
Catherine sighed, "Fine, fine, Iāll reluctantly go with you. Why do you need new clothes anyway?"
Anlicia laughed, "Iām going to be the Deputy City Lord; I have to look dignified and imposing, yet elegant and noble!"
āAh pooh! Da Fei couldnāt help but spray his drink! Talking about reluctantly becoming Deputy City Lord, I think sheās more eager than anyone else!
Catherine chuckled, "Thatās easy, Iām good at this!"
The two laughed, arms linked, as they headed straight to the Teleportation Array. With two flashes of white light, they disappeared, leaving Da Fei dumbfounded!
What the heck! What performance are you putting on now? Completely ignoring my presence!
Ugh, damn it, my harem is not harmonious; theyāve split into factions! One faction is the angel and demon faction of the Nun and Deirdre, and the other is the fun-loving group of Anlicia and Catherine!
Ever since the last time in the North Sea when I wanted to give the Sea Soul Staff to Anlicia, Selvia, for some unknown reason, stubbornly refused to let go. After much persuasion and a 30-point loyalty penalty, she finally let Anlicia use it for a bit. Then I hurriedly reequipped it to Selvia. But it seems that after this equipment dispute, the two of them barely talk anymore! It feels like Iām carrying two taciturn inn heroes around. Thatās why I carelessly let Anlicia become Captain, and now I recall how problematic Anliciaās personality is!
Speaking of the relationship between Selvia and Deirdre, thereās nothing to say. Since the monastery, Deirdreās recognized Selvia as her master, and their relationship hasnāt changed even after becoming heroes. As for the two from the fun-loving group, Iām speechless. Anlicia directly threatened me that if I didnāt help Catherine find her father, sheād turn against me! Oh, my God! But itās okay, as long as you all wear bikinis, I wonāt be upset.
Forget it, letās not be worked up over these women; focus on business.
Da Fei began to take out the spoils from this battle, the mysterious map book. Itās not equipment but might be more valuable than any equipment!
But when Da Fei opened it, he found only darkness! Whereās the map? Could it be encrypted?
In any case, ask someone knowledgeable. Da Fei thought of Deirdre, who, when she first came to the Pool of Radiance, was considered a strategist.
Da Fei went to the Flyingās gun cabin, where a long-lost lively feeling greeted him! The Cannon Emperors were on the crossbows, playing around in various poses, making Da Feiās head swirl and blood boil! This is my true Demon King Palace! Wahahaha!
At this moment, Selvia was talking to Deirdre; seeing Da Fei come back, Deirdre greeted him with a smile, "Master, has Mr. Mage mentioned anything about the alchemy laboratory being ready? Iām about to start making ammunition."
Da Fei coughed lightly and laughed, "For some reason, Mr. Mage hasnāt shown up all day, so letās wait a bit. If it doesnāt work out, you can start without him, Master has plenty of money, and it wonāt hurt to use some materials."
Deirdre shook her head, "Itās not about the money; these materials arenāt usually available, so I canāt waste them lightly!"
Ah, truly a good housekeeper! Unlike those two who only eat, drink, and have fun! Ah, wait, where did they get the money to buy clothes and play around? I didnāt give them any money! But one is a rich pirateās daughter, and the other is a descendant of a kingdomās hero, so I guess theyāre not short of money?
Ah, the background of an epic hero is indeed important, unlike inn heroes, who are definitely penniless when recruited, with no private fortune stash.
Da Fei took out the map book and asked, "Why canāt I see this map?"
Deirdre frowned, "Master, this map has been encrypted by high-level military personnel from the Demon Race; regular people canāt read it."
Sure enough, it seems only Makar can do it; as a God-level Mage, he could definitely decrypt it, right? Not to mention his dual identity as a Death Lord, he might have some channels in the Demon Race.
At this time, Selvia stepped forward seriously, "Captain, I have something important to discuss with you!"
Hey, hey! Donāt tell me itās badmouthing those two; I donāt want to hear it!
Da Fei just chuckled awkwardly, "Go ahead."
Selvia said solemnly, "I also need to purchase a lot of clothing to equip these Cannon Emperor troops. Their current state is improper and affects their combat and defensive power. Iāve mentioned this a long time ago, havenāt I?"
āAh pooh! Improper! Da Fei almost spat out his blood!
Back when the first young Banshee appeared, Catherineās first reaction was, "So cute," but her first reaction was, "Why isnāt it wearing clothes?" Who knew sheād remember and care so much years later? Or did todayās shopping for clothes spark her memories, making her determined to do it?
No way! My beloved Cannon Emperors, how can you wear clothes?
Deirdre also laughed, "Yes, Lord Selvia just brought it up. I think it makes sense. I can anytime advance my Master Level Armed Forces Skill. It wonāt burden you with more Skill Points."
Da Fei shook his head and smiled bitterly. Speaking of, when I encountered the South Korean women with batons in the competition, I realized the vulnerability of elite troops, and I realized I should equip the troops. So, it might be an opportunity today to get it done.
Speaking of which, ever since we set sail and let Deirdre sell a batch of goods, pushing her to level 41, I havenāt really managed her. Of course, I canāt! Although sheās the Vice Hero, she grows on her own. I canāt even allocate points for her, which is more frustrating than Anlicia, at least I can allocate points for her! Ah, epic heroes are never normal.
Da Fei checked on Deirdreās state after a long break:

....
What the heck! Look at this large array of hero skills sheās learned by herself; Da Fei was shocked! So many overlap with mine! Oh well, oh well, Vice Heroes often have to manage things independently.
Once she learns the Master Level Armed Forces Skill, her troops will get 5 additional equipment slots, allowing them to equip armor or weapons. However, troop equipment is very different from what players equip. For balance reasons, gear that players wear would have its attributes reduced to a tenth when worn by troop units. Thereās designated troop equipment in the game, as previously mentioned.
Da Fei laughed, "No problem, so what do you plan on equipping them with, Selvia? Troop equipment isnāt ordinary."
Selvia was serious, "Saint Paulās St. Maria Magic Pattern Store specializes in producing and selling Magic Pattern Cloth and Mage Robes, which also supplies high-end robes for Monastery Nuns. I know someone there who can help with the supply!"
Da Feiās eyebrow twitched! Da Fei seriously asked, "Is it troop equipment?"
Selvia nodded, "Of course, as long as itās cloth armor or robes, any type of equipment will do! However, the acquaintance I know makes top-end ones. But itāll require a lot of money!"
Da Fei suddenly realized! This is Selvia revealing her social circle for the first time. Does this count as successfully developing her virgin territory? Yet, why do you immediately jump to the highest-end?
Okay! I love the high-end, isnāt it just money? However, itās money thatās bothering me now!
Just then, a faint voice was heard outside the cabin, "Is Lord here?"
Da Feiās eyebrow twitched, itās Sain! Wahahaha! Finally, theyāre here. I was worried about the money, now I can show them my good stuff, and itās my turn to earn money from the Seven Cities Alliance!
Hmm! Wait, I donāt know what this material is worth! Right, Deirdre has Basic Negotiation Skill, so Iāll bring her up for the negotiation. Being from the Demon Race, she should know the value of this Demon Eye skin.
So, Da Fei hurriedly brought Deirdre to meet Sain, chuckling, "Mr. Sain, you arenāt being efficient this time!"
Sain appeared somber, and after a long silence, he bowed deeply, "Iām sorry, Lord, your order wasnāt approved. I did my utmost, but to no avail."
Da Fei froze, "Why? Too high-end for the factory? Then Iāll buy more low-end stuff. Surely itās okay once the order value is high enough?"
Sain shook his head, sighing, "Iām sorry, this is our final transaction. I canāt discuss the reasons, but I apologize again!"
What? Not even a trade? Reasons that canāt be disclosed?
Da Fei suddenly realized, it must be because my God-level Luck counters the Heavenly Destiny, and they canāt draw my Power of Prayer, so they donāt want to trade with me anymore! Likely! According to the Gambling Godās theory, "If Iām not unlucky, theyāll be," so if they canāt draw from me, they get unlucky, hence no trades at all!
But seriously, no trades? How about regular ones?
To confirm his thought, Da Fei asked, "Mr. Sain, Iāve got some good goods, would you like to take a look?"
