Exotic music was heard in the wind, and it was dinner time, and the air was filled with the smell of barbecued steaks and spices, and the stalls along the road were selling fresh fruit and vegetables. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"This is inside the behemoth?"

Lawson was skeptical as he looked up at the night sky.

Unlike the magically laid out skies in the Ultramarine Fortress, the skies here appeared more natural, barely indistinguishable from the real starry sky, hence the question.

"Yes or no. ”

Tia's words flickered, and Rosen was confused.

"This is actually a fragment of the plane, which has been magically stuffed into the interior of Istar and has become the cornerstone of the city, and when it enters the body of the behemoth, it is into this broken plane, so it is neither in the body of Istar nor in it. ”

In other words, this place is similar to the space in a huge storage ring, and Lawson and the others have actually experienced a spatial leap through the previous hall, but Lawson is unaware.

"Istal is a typical case of experimentation, which is included in the alchemy textbooks reviewed and published by almost the Tower of the Rainbow, for mortals, all they see is the prosperity of the city, but for mages, this city can be regarded as the crystallization of dreams, and it is a place worth visiting. ”

Tia said, as if with some pride.

"Of course, it's quite normal for a country-born mercenary like you to not know the subtleties of this, and I don't expect you to understand the beauty of the logarithmic spiral of magic, in fact, most mortals only see the power of magic on display, but ignore the essence of magic. ”

It seems that this little girl seems to have a deep understanding of magic, and based on her previous performance, she seems to be a mage?

It occurred to Rosen that perhaps Tia's purpose for coming to the city was at least partially similar to his own.

But he didn't rush to tell Tia his purpose, although it seems that this girl is not defensive and friendly to Rosen, but who knows if this is a disguise or only exists when Rosen and Tia's interests do not conflict too much?

It was Holland who interrupted Rosen's thoughts.

He had just been saying goodbye to the members of the caravan one by one and receiving their payment, and now it seemed to be Tia's turn.

"Take it. ”

Tia nonchalantly pulled out a handful of gold coins from her full purse and threw them into Holland's palm without counting them.

"The rest is taken as a tip. ”

Holland was of course pleased with Tia's generosity, and nodded several times in thanks to the girl who had only reached his waist when she stood up, and then he saw Lawson, and took out some of the gold coins from the money bag that had collected the reward.

"Mr. Gus, this is your reward, you deserved it for saving us halfway. ”

Rosen didn't refuse, nodded silently and accepted it, he just didn't have much savings, he had been wandering away from human society and didn't feel it, but once he integrated into the crowd, the consumption of money became a big problem, and now it is really a solution.

"Also, Lord Sasson would like to thank you very much, I wonder if Mr. Gus has had some free time to go to the headquarters of the Iron Wolf Guard to strengthen his relationship recently?"

Holland whispered again.

It seems that Saston wants to recruit Lawson, if a bronze force joins, the Iron Wolf Guard will undoubtedly overpower other forces and become the strongest force in Ishtar City, I am afraid that Saston also issued such an invitation at the behest of his boss.

"I'll be in Istar for a while, and if I have time, I'll come and visit. ”

Rosen didn't agree, nor did he directly refuse, he didn't have any interest in the Iron Wolf Guards for the time being, but he didn't rule out the opportunity to use these people in the future, so he left a favor.

"Then I'll pass it on for Mr. Gus. ”

Holland didn't say much, he was just a messenger.

By the time the caravan was almost disbanded, Tia jumped out of the carriage.

She told the coachman to wait at her lodging while she stared at the sizzling kebabs and leg of lamb on the side of the street.

"What's next for you, why don't you join me for some Ishtar food?"

She finally looked away and looked at Lawson, who was indifferent to the food.

"I'll have to take care of my own business, I'll see later. ”

Although it seems a little cruel to let the girl alone in this noisy street market, Rosen knows that the strength of this guy in front of him is no less than his own, and even if he didn't make a move, this girl may be able to at least repel Dominic, so he can be said to be a million relieved, without any guilt.

"You refuse a lady's invitation like this, you are really a hard-hearted fellow. ”

Although Tia complained about Lawson, there was no regret on her face, it seemed that this invitation was also a casual move, and there was not much sincerity.

"But I feel like fate will one day guide the two of us to the same place, and it doesn't seem like this will be the last time we'll see each other. ”

Is this a euphemism to say goodbye?

Rosen couldn't figure out what Tia meant, but he didn't pay attention to the fact that the mages were always not good at talking, just like the spells were long and cumbersome.

"Okay, then I'll take my leave. ”

Saying goodbye to Tia, who was rushing to the barbecue stand, Lawson walked to the shadows of the two rooms, checked "that thing" he was carrying, and then pulled out another piece of paper.

An address is written on the paper in a very abstract font.

This is exactly the commission that Liliana gave to Rosen.

"Looks a little bit out of here. ”

Lawson checked the coordinates and walked towards the location marked on the paper while observing his surroundings.

It has to be said that Istal is indeed a bustling city, and if it were in Bunajien or Byron Weiss at this time, the streets would have been deserted long ago, but Ishtar is the opposite, whether it is a hawker who shouts hard, or a drunken liquor shop, or even some shops forging weapons and armor, they are all in the peak business period, and they are very busy.

It was precisely for this reason that when Rosen arrived at his destination, the unusual silence around him made him a little alarmed.

It was a small house, quietly standing on the corner of the street, flanked by relatively deserted shops, and at first glance there was nothing unusual about it.

But if you look closely, you will feel that the hut is out of place with the surrounding scenery, like an extra piece of color on the canvas, and passers-by seem to not notice the hut at all, and no one will look at it.

Rosen felt a slight trace of magic power, he reached out and touched the air around the hut, and found a wave of magic power slowly rippling and quickly calming down.

"Magic barriers, or is it a trick?"

Rosen was now certain that the hut was indeed an observation post for the mages, because in the eyes of ordinary people, there were no houses at all, only an open space.

"Interesting. ”

After looking around and making sure there was nothing out of the ordinary, Lawson walked straight to the door of the hut.
