Chapter 1074: 336. “Smuggling” Aggregate_2
Approaching noon, Noland Lee found traces of the Ancient Tomb Wizards near a small Alchemist Faction base.
The small Alchemist Faction was named the “Bone Carving Enthusiasts Association,” specializing in creating artworks from the skeletons of magic beasts.
Three Ancient Tomb Wizards had joined this Alchemist Faction, serving as technical advisors under the guise of bone crafting experts.
While making bone carvings for the association, the Ancient Tomb Wizards also purchased rare magic beast skeletons through them.
Usually, the Ancient Tomb Wizards kept to themselves and rarely left the association’s grand building.
Only sellers carrying a large number of rare magic stone corpses could see their true faces.
...
Noland Lee had a plan in mind.
He returned to Sector 7 and found Cindy, asking her to help him forge the identity of a legitimate hunting team leader.
About an hour later, Noland Lee returned to No. 18 Sector, stopping in front of the grand building of the Bone Carving Enthusiasts Association.
This time, he wore a neat, short alchemist robe, his face covered with the traces of long exposure to barren lands, and he was followed by two hunting team guards for appearances.
He took on the name Da Vinci and, posing as the leader of a monster hunting team, visited the Bone Carving Enthusiasts Association.
Outwardly, his purpose was to sell five complete and high-quality Thundering Elephant skeletons.
In secret, Noland Lee intended to use the transaction as a pretext to meet any one of the three Ancient Tomb Wizards.
Escorted enthusiastically by the association’s receptionist, Noland Lee led the armed guards into the building and finally, in a secluded visitor’s room, met the real target of his visit.
“Mr. Da Vinci, please allow me to introduce you,”
the receptionist said with a beaming smile, bowing slightly and pointing to the skeleton frame seated behind the round table:
“This is a special technical advisor invited by our association. He is a genuine Skeleton Undead, renowned for his ability to appraise bones. I hope his appearance hasn’t frightened you…”
“Skeleton Undead? A person from the Undead Cult?” Noland Lee acted like a true Golden Federation man, scrutinizing the Ancient Tomb Wizard in the black robe with suspicion.
“No, no, no, you’ve misunderstood. He is a Death Clan Wizard from the Ulnas Circle.” The receptionist pulled out a chair, inviting Noland Lee to sit, and then turned to the Ancient Tomb Wizard:
“The upcoming appraisal work will now be in your hands, Master Nissan Dak.”
The Ancient Tomb Wizard named Nissan Dak nodded faintly, exuding the demeanor of a master.
With a wave of his hand, Noland Lee instructed the armed guards behind him to bring out the Thundering Elephant skeletons and place them on the table for the master’s appraisal.
The diameter of the large round table exceeded 10 meters, barely accommodating the Thundering Elephant’s skeleton.
Taking advantage of Nissan Dak’s appraisal, Noland Lee cast Deconstruction Technique on him.
Fate was kind this time; Noland Lee had encountered the leader of the three Ancient Tomb Wizards.
[System Message:]
[You are about to use Deconstruction on “Nissan Dak.”]
[The system detects that deconstructing this target will have negative effects on you, and it is recommended to perform Harmless Deconstruction.]
Harmless Deconstruction…
Noland Lee observed Nissan Dak discreetly, looking for any abnormalities.
At least from the outside, he didn’t see anything unusual about Nissan Dak.
“Confirm Harmless Deconstruction,” Noland Lee silently ordered in his mind.
[Harmless Deconstruction Successful!]
[You have obtained the following Deconstruction Results:]
[Deconstruction Result One: “Nissan Dak’s” Panel Information]

[Identity 2] Soul Contract Object of the Blood Sun Seal
[Identity 3] Technical Advisor of the Bone Material Enthusiasts Association
[Identities 4 to 7] Omitted
…
The Soul Contract of the Blood Sun Seal!
Noland Lee’s mind stirred.
He couldn’t take the time to look at other Deconstruction Results and immediately cast the Deconstruction Technique on the soul contract.
[You consume 13,780,000 points of Energy, initiating Harmless Deconstruction on “Soul Contract.”]
[Harmless Deconstruction Successful!]
[The Panel Information for “Soul Contract” is as follows:]
[Name] The Soul Contract between Blood Sun Seal and Nissan Dak
[Contract Signing Date] 221 days ago
[Contract Contents]
Nissan Dak, on behalf of the Tomb King, signed this soul contract with the Blood Sun Seal.
The Tomb King needs to securely and completely transport all the bone materials collected over the centuries into Outer Space.
The Blood Sun Seal accepts the commission of the Tomb King, responsible for covertly guiding the Golden Federation in constructing the space building to transport the bone materials.
After safely delivering the bone materials to Outer Space, the Blood Sun Seal will receive a reward from the Tomb King.
To ensure the space building successfully passes through the Star Filtering Net, the Tomb King will assist the Blood Sun Seal in opening a new Pollution Zone.
…
What does that mean?
The Tomb King wants to send all the bone materials collected over the years into outer space?
How much bone material has this wizard force collected?
Noland Lee vaguely remembered seeing a report in the Ulnas Enquirer where the leader of the Tomb King, Niga Jiamai, was interviewed.
Niga Jiamai, with Ten Ring strength, proudly claimed in the interview that the bone materials collected by the Tomb King could fill the body of a mountain.
Roughly estimated, the so-called “fine” bone materials should amount to over one hundred million cubic meters.
Then, the total stock of bone material must reach the scales of tens of billions of cubic meters.
What is the Tomb King planning to do by sending such a massive pile of bone materials to outer space?
Could it be a bad deal?
After all, speaking colloquially, isn’t bone material just bones… noveldrama
